Add one to Ken's most memorable playoff/World Series games: Game 7, 2014 World Series, Giants vs Royals--Madison Bumgarner pitches the last five innings as the Giants win--coming off starting Game 5, something you'll never see again, given how pitchers are now handled/managed
Heywards contract was one of the worst in Cubs history arguably but I'll forever be grateful for his contributions on and off the field during that 2016 World Series. My Grandpa would tell me stories about being at game 3 of the 1945 World Series seeing Claude Passeau throw a CGSO. So glad he got to see them win before he passed. Maybe I'll get lucky an see them win another one in my lifetime.
One solution for what happened to the Diamondbacks. In the case of a triple for 2 playoff spots. Allow the number one team on the tie break to advance. The second and third teams play one playoff game
Mets win first game. Aren’t the braves forced to have Sale start. If they loose second game then it doesn’t matter having Chris sale fresh for wild card series
Gregory Soto was a disaster when he first came to Baltimore but he's been lights out in his last 10 outings. Reportedly he went to Hyde and told him that he had figured out something and asked Hyde to stay with him. Right now he's the best high-leverage LH reliever O's have, ahead of Perez, Coulombe and Aikin.

Cubs world series was intense!

Wouldn't the incentive be home court advantage IF they both meet in the playoffs. It's a big IF.
Housto vs Detroit comment- how about AJ Hinch vs Astros !
“Zero incentive” to win game 2 is not true. Low incentive, maybe. But not zero.
