- The Twins pulled within a game and a half of the White Sox, beating Chicago at the Dome 9-3, leaving open the possibility that the Twins could end the series with an AL Central lead.
- The NL East is also a game and a half apart, as the Phillies lost and Mets won. I'll be at Citizen's Bank Park tonight for Philly-Atlanta; rooting against the Braves is something I'll never, ever get sick of.
- The Yankees were eliminated from playoff contention on Tuesday, for their first October-less non-strike season since 1993. My heart truly bleeds for their heartbroken, long-suffering fans. Fans of the Brewers, who haven't made the playoffs since 1982 and appear set to blow it yet again, are just going to have to deal with it.
