The Postseason

Sunday the Justin Verlander won for the Tigers forcing a Twins win. The Twins won too. Both teams are tied for the AL Central lead. There will be a won game tiebreaker at the Metrodome on Tuesday. The winner will go to New York to begin the first round of the playoffs.
The Cardinals start off Wednesday at the Las Angeles Dodgers. I think the Cardinals will win having gone 5-2 against the Dodgers this Season. The Phillies start out against the Rockies. If the Rockies beat the Phillies the Cardinals will loose the NLCS. If the Phillies win the Cardinals might loose too only having beaten them once this season. I think the Phillies will beat the Rockies having dominated them all season.
The Red Sox start out against the Angels. I think the Angels will beat them in 4 games then beat the Yankees. The Yankees have always had trouble with the Angels postseason and regular season. I think the Angels will go to the World Series for the AL.

Carpenter's big Day

Yesterday the Rockies clinched the Wild Card. The Twins beat the Tigers. The Cardinals won 13-0. Chris Carpenter hit his first career home run. It ended up being a grand slam. He drove in two other runs on a double. He pitched 5 innings not allowing a run. I think he will win the Cy Young Award.

Olympics

This does not involve baseball but I thought you would want to know it. The 2016 olympics will be held in Rio De Janeiro.

New News

The AL Central is almost decided. The Tigers magic number is down to one on yesterday’s win. One Detroit win of one Minnesota loss grants the division to the Tigers. The same is true for the Rockies. There magic number is also one so it is the same as the Tigers. The Phillies clinched there division yesterday on a 10-3 win over Houston. All the other races are decided so all that is left is to wait for the postseason.
The Cardinals lost 6-1 yesterday. That makes John Smoltz 1 and 3 with the Cardinals. I do not think he will start in the postseason
