chw42 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 The craziest scenario is actually a 3 way tie. Cause that would involve a game 164 for at least one team. A 4 way tie only guarantees game 163 for 4 teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that would be Monday tie breaker game #1, Tuesday tie breaker game #2, Wednesday Wildcard game, Thursday ALDS game #1 against the Rays. Am I right with that?

flavum Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I just hope there isn’t a possibility everything getting pushed back a day, and we lose the off day between games 4 and 5. Maybe the Sox would benefit in the long run, but I’d rather it not come to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogosox1959 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Our half of the draw shouldn't be affected. Tampa might get game one against another teams #3 or #4 starter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 So if you just want the maximum amount of baseball played before the DS starts, you want the Red Sox or Yankees to lose, and the other three to win; and the Dodgers to win and the Giants to lose.

Balta1701 Posted October 3, 2021 Author Share Posted October 3, 2021 Nats take a 1-0 lead in Boston. Angels now stomping the Mariners 4-0, Torotno with a good lead. Yankees and Rays scoreless through 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegner Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) Wow Sale is really struggling...and he is out of the game after 2.1 innings of work and 62 pitches...he leaves with the bases loaded after just walking in a run.

Balta1701 Posted October 3, 2021 Author Share Posted October 3, 2021 Mariners in deep trouble. Torotno did their job, just need either Boston or NY to lose to get a playin game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 5-1, and let’s go Rays as well, still tied 0-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Mariners had 2nd and 3rd two outs and don't score. They probably could have had Kelenic score fairly easily and held him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If forced to, would go with Jays because they seem to be playing a bit more freely but then winning at Fenway won’t be easy. For Berrios, any opponent not named the Yankees would be a good thing.
