I don’t think we have a magic number against Kansas City until we clear them.

Before today;

Ragans done. 6 ip 0 runs 6 strikeouts

0-0 KC at Nationals...top of the 9th inning.

[gehringer_2]

KC - Was, 11 hits plus and error and no runs on the board after 8.

So I have the audio stream open from the Minnesota game and during an inning break I got an local Ann Arbor ad. The internet is frightening.

if we end up with the exact combination of six of Tigers wins and Royals losses, don’t the Royals win the tiebreaker?

[romad1]

Royals and Nats are really in a barn burner

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

bottom of the 9th in DC. score runs, dummies!

[gehringer_2]

KC - Wash goes to the 10th  0-0.

Yes, that's why the magic number with the Royals was 7.

Top of the order for KC vs 7-8-9 for the Nats.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

crap, poor fielding/throwing lets KC go ahead in the 10th.

If the Nats get out of it only giving up 1 run, they have a chance.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

argh, Gallo just missed that.

[chasfh]

KC just won, but they’re not the important game anyway.

[Sports_Freak]

Royals win.

God, I've always hated the Nats, and now I hate them a little more.

Someone identified it as six after today’s game. But you’re right, it is seven when considering the tiebreaker. However, the Royals’ magic number against us is six.

Speaking only for myself, I don’t think I can consider us as having a magic number against them as long as their magic number is less than ours, because they’re in the driver’s seat, not we. But technically, i agree we have a magic number of seven.

Twins lose.  Tigers’ playoff magic number is …4!

[chasfh]

Twins lose! Magic number is now four.

Twins suck so much lately they can’t hang a 100th loss on a terrible team.

Did you guys see where Chicago are pushing Crochet back from Thursday to Friday to face us?  Kind of a douchy move, if that was the reason.
