I have tickets but not sure whether we go.  Was a long night for my little fella.  He says he wants to go but we will see. I’m fine either way. We are going tomorrow anyway.  We might just go and walk around and sit wherever. I will be interested in how many actually show up. Tickets are all sold. The play might be uninspiring although the pitchers and a few position guys have something to play for. Postseason rosters.  
 

these kids are young though.  Their bodies can handle partying all night and showing up for work in the morning.

Selfishly I am glad they clinched last night.  I’m too busy today and would have had to record and watch after 10pm tonight.  However, I was also busy last night, but wanted to record and watch after 10pm last night.   Everything went to plan except for (1) a nephew texted me and (2) I forgot to set the recording.  D’oh!  Whatever.  The main objective was accomplished.

But, hey, might as well win today, right?

I haven't watched the playoffs in ten years. Do most teams go with twelve pitchers in the postseason?

Not sure.  I think given how the Tigers have gone about things the last month or two and the way that the off days come into play during the postseason, that 13th arm may not be necessary.  The regular season has the burden of 6/7 games in a week, sometimes two weeks in a row without an off day.  So, there’s daily fatigue management at play.  Theatre does continue to an extent in the postseason, and there is the season long build up that keeps getting added on to.  But the off days in between and during playoff rounds could be a factor in fatigue management.

Heck, and here I hurried home from my walk at the botanical garden to follow this game.

Actually, I’m pretty sated by this season. Anything more constitutes “gluttony.” Anything beyond this is like mana from heaven.

I caught this halfway through, but someone said “don’t look at me“ and Jason said “one of the benefits of being me is that no one ever knows what direction I’m looking.”

My doctor has eyes that do that even worse. I never know which eye to look into when he's lecturing me. 😆😆
