Back in the day, the 102+ wins Dodgers wouldn’t even have made the playoffs. It’s unlucky for them, but part of the game. I don’t hate it.
How long ago was that?
Hasn’t it always been the 3 winners plus one wild card for the 4?
They changed to the 3 winners plus 2 wild cards after that -
I wouldn’t call winning 10 of last 12 chokinggreenblood said:And the choking begins
Baseball is high variance. A sweep would be a slight choke but nothing crazy. A choke would be going 2-10 to miss the playoffs after being 4 games up. Not 10-2 to be in the hunt still after being 4 games back.

In the 1980s, some team (I can't remember who) won over 100 games and missed the playoffs. And in 1987 (I think), the Twins won 85 games and made the playoffs and won the World Series

First and third no outs in the 7th. Gotta score there. Three straight strikeouts.

Just a double whammy
In the span of like 10’minutes we get a 3 run homer and than a FG to beat us.
