If the Nats lose this game...

[El Supremo]

I will hate MLB Baseball forever!

The absolutely stupid one game play-in for the wild card team. Washington has a better record than the Central Division champs Cardinals. The Brewers don't deserve to be in this contrived game. What a POS!

1. The Brew Crew doing it without Christian Yelich

I hope they can beat the odds, those underdogs! And that might mean you change your DU avatar to the Dallas Cowboys instead of a baseball team.

[El Supremo]

7. The Brewskis were swept by...

the Crappy Rockies at the end of the season. They lost the Central Division because of it.

8. Hey, don't mess with

Chuck Nazty!

[Ohiogal]

2. I agree that the one-game playoff is stupid.

At least make it best of 3.

[TheRealNorth]

5. Baseball purists

Don't even like the wildcard. A 3 game playoff would be nice, but I don't think they want to be playing baseball into November.

[TheRealNorth]

3. WHAAAAT?

If the Nationals can't beat Brewers (without their best player) at home, then I don't think you can say the Nats deserve anything but an early start to the off-season

[El Supremo]

6. Yeah, I guess...

"deserves don't mean nothin'."

[GP6971]

4. I hate this wild card one

game shootout. It's all about $$....nothing else.

9. In my perfect world, Dusty Baker would still be managing the Nationals and they would be...

beating up the Brewers.

10. Lighten up, Francis.

It is what it is.

The ESPN pundits today were wondering why the Nats were going with Scherzer. Looks like they knew something.

Just happy the Yankees don’t have to play Oakland this week.

[redstateblues]

12. Scherzer was weak down the stretch

[El Supremo]

13. The A's will cream the Yankers...

in the AlCS.

No wait. The Asstros will.

[redstateblues]

11. It sucks but it happened to my Braves. Nationals lost the division

They are lucky to be in the playoffs

[madinmaryland]

14. I agree with you on this point, Elway...

Either they go to a longer playoff series or they just fucking get rid of the one game playoff game thingie. They’re already intruding into November. Baseball should be ending before November starts. It could be adjusted by more double headers.

15. We win!

Soto better than Harper.

[GusBob]

16. I thought it was a great baseball game

Congrats to the Nats

I think our Brewers deserved to be in there

I think all of your comments are in poor taste

Good luck the rest of the post season

[Brother Buzz]

17. The bottom of the eighth was great baseball

[GusBob]

19. Its what its all about aint it?

Game on the line, season on the line

Lets go! It makes it fun win or lose

Someone needs to remind the OP

Wild Card teams have won it all

[Kingofalldems]

18. I feel for the RFer.

Players are so amped for this mistakes happen. Max was overthrowing in the first and it cost him.

[Brother Buzz]

20. That hit had some wicked backspin on it...

and simply didn't bounce as expected.
