    I think the Brewers and Phillies will be one hell of a playoff series! Talent everywhere!

    Wow...Dodgers and Cubs will be an exciting series for the fans

    As far as the Rays series goes...Either the Twins or White Sox...That will have me nervious for sure... I cant believe I'm about to see the Rays in the playoffs!

    I felt like using your post to start an overall division series thread. Manny's golf shot silenced the crowd.

    The Brewers fail Game 1 and the Cubbies are in trouble down 6-2 in the 9th.

    Cubs go down with a whimper, Cubs now depend on a Zambrano that was very wild to save their season.

    dude, my brother's an ump, the game is fixed. I'll come back after the game so you can tell me how smart I am. Ryan Dempster will get a strike zone the size of a black hole.

    :rofl:

    I think the Rays will move on to the ALCS. They're better than the ChiSox.

    Sometimes experience is a big deal in these series and the Sox essentially have most of the key components of that WS team although their pitching isn't nearly as good as it was that year. Then again the Rays didn't let inexperience hurt them down the stretch.

    Evan Longoria homers on the first postseason pitch of his career. 1-0 Rays.

    Evan Longoria homers on the second postseason pitch of his career. 4-3 Rays. Evan Longoria also did your mother.

    http://rookyclub.4-all.org/ has the game.

    Longoria became the first rookie and the second player ever to homer in his first two postseason at bats. Gary Gaetti in 1987 was the first.

    His third AB was an RBI single.

    6-3 Rays now as they cut into the Chicago bullpen. 6th inning.

    Pena has a scratched cornea and had to be taken out for Aybar but he should be able to play in Game 2.

    I listened to a little bit on ESPN radio and now I'm finally home so I can watch.
