Baring a miracle pitching performance by the Dodger's Charlie Heager, Jake will win Game 2 of the FNFT Wild Card Playoff and advance to his 4th World Series in 5 years. Jake leads 78-47. Tom can only get points from Haeger who pitches this afternoon in Cincinnati, and a relief pitcher - either Joakim Soria or Rafael Soriano. Jake still has two hitters not yet on the board - Ben Zobrist and Mike Lowell. Tom needs Haeger and his reliever to outscore Zobrist and Lowell by 31 points. Kendry Morales had an impressive 29 point (5 2 5 6 22HH) game for Tom.
In Divisional Playoff, Avery will go up 1-0 with a 66-39 victory over Joe. King Felix scored 19 for the victors, pacing a balanced attack. Game 2 of the series will be Tuesday, Sep 1.
Because of the 1-game playoff necessary to decide the Lachmann Division, the Divisional Playoff between Avery and Joe will have a double-header game next weekend. I'll write a separate post on how the rules work for that and how the lineup system should be used.
