Can the ALDS match yesterday’s drama-filled NLDS?
Well, that was quite the day of baseball yesterday. The Mets and Phillies engaged in a herculean struggle in the second game of their series, before Philadelphia walked away winners. Then, we learned that the usual Padres douchebaggery is a lot more fun – indeed, it’s almost adorable! – when being directed at the Dodgers and enraging their fans. Looking forward to the third games in both those series. Over in the American League, I feel a lot less invested. Slight anti-Yankee leanings as ever, but otherwise, I honestly can’t say I’m too bothered. The higher seeds have taken an early advantage in both, and we will see if this continues to a decisive edge before the series change locations for Game 3.
