As much as that was an amazing weekend of baseball and as much as I love Yanks winning 6 in a row...this is far from over w Yanks playing (3) at Toronto and (3) vs the Rays. At minimum they will need to be 4-2 to hold on to WC#1. Sox w Orioles and Nationals might be 6-0 . PS: Stanton owns Boston Yeah, what concoction is in that IV bag they have Stanton hooked up to?? I mean, the guy everyone wanted from Miami seemed to become a ghost of himself for like a year and a half at least. Now suddenly, the big bad monster is back in full form. Good for the Yankees, they have some hot bats heading North to compete with the Jays bats, that's for sure.

And it all comes down to the last game of the season.

And it all comes down to the last game of the season. Possibly. This log jam could result in multiple extra regular season tie break games. But if Sox and Yankees both win, definitely regular season ends today.

All tied up after 162 with one game to settle it for 2021 edition of the rivalry. What a great way to end the season, no matter how it turns out. Don’t really see either team in the WS but that’s why they play the games.

Or do we let it ride on WC game? I guess we could, of course should your team prevail, the clubs would be tied in head to head for the season 😝

Final AL East standings for 2021, Sox slide into second based on head-to-head record by 1 game 10-9, doesnt get much more evenly matched than that. The Rays ran away with it over the last 6 weeks or so and look strong, but the most remarkable thing is 4 teams with 90 wins in the same division, which I don’t think has happened since the late 70s where there were just two divisions. No other division in 2021 has more than 2 90-game winners, and the NL East has none (while the NL west has 2 100-game winners). Time to hit the reset button and bring on the post season.

Agreed on all, but we can take those standings and fush them. Sox 0-0, Yanks 0-0...Jays booking tee times...great year. Cant wait for tomorrow.

We can take it off line to discuss. Either way, nice job backing up your team and smack...fun year.

It was a 3-0 game. Bullpen wasn’t the reason for the loss. Sox had two singles. Sox offense is last in league. I would get used to this. I would wager they get shut out 10 or more times this year. Any takers? Had to bring this back to close out the reg season. For the record, the Sox got shut out a total of 5 times, and were the 5th highest run scoring team in the majors. Yankees got shut out 8 times and scored way fewer runs. Nice job, monkeydamus.

Mach, if we wanted to get really technical, Yanks finished ahead of Sox. How do you figure that?

Alternate facts? Ha ha I should have known. That prediction was so dumb that it was easy to remember, and it was from opening day so no searching required.

With that said, I am willing to put the $$ on the line...Mach, what say you..1 game to settle it all? Sox win, I donate $1000, you donate $500, Yanks win you donate $1000, I donate $500. If not, we can call it even and both donate $500.
And Zenny, not too late for you to jump in since you are so confident...
PS: I have also predicated the Pats at 7-10 this year...save this one for later use as well.
