bmags Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 this was great...thank you sox...thank you soo much... i'm starting to think if we really pull this off ( no jinx, i'm knocking on every piece of f***ing wood available) that it could make us a BETTER playoff team then had we entered at 15.5 games ahead. but i am just hoping we still win the division/make the playoffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightni Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 The Sox gotta finish business vs. Detroit. Make Cleveland have to win vs. TB in order to stay in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 The last three games looked like how teams should play when they have to win during the pennant race. Get the early lead against a team that has nothing to play for, and have strong starting pitching. That Dye homer on Friday was a big turning point for this team.

daa84 Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 correct me if im wrong, but isnt the real magic number only 3? since the sox get the nod in a tie breaker, 3 wins or cle losses will leave the race tied in which case the sox will win the division Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 QUOTE(daa84 @ Sep 25, 2005 -> 03:22 PM) correct me if im wrong, but isnt the real magic number only 3? since the sox get the nod in a tie breaker, 3 wins or cle losses will leave the race tied in which case the sox will win the division 4 wins or Cle losses. Magic # = 1 means that the guy behind you can only tie. Magic number is 5, so we need 4 Sox wins or cleveland losses to guarantee a tie.

Antonio Osuna Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 3 is the magic number to get into the playoffs (i.e., clinch at least the WC). Its that low because BOS and NYY play each other 3 times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Kickass Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Just so you know Scott - winning all four against detroit would increase our lead to three games and would clinch at least a tie for the AL Central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjm676 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Perfect day (well, except for the disaster you call a Bears game) Cleveland loses and Sox win. Welcome back, Mark. Following the trend of your co-horts. Let's wrap this thing up in Detroit and not worry about anything else except the playoff rotation in Cleveland. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Im still not sure if the real Buehrle is back yet. Did anyone look at their lineup. Of the players who had enough ab's to count the highest avg. was like .260 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
