dodgers -245 lost to the Giants, 7-1 Cubs -168 lost to the Cards, 12-6. jays -153 lost to the Red Sox, 4-3
Cubs have clinched the NL Central. They play the Mets and Brewers the last 7 games of the season, so it will be interesting to see how (if at all) this affects the wild card race.
Cameron Maybin started his major league career 9 for his first 10. I wonder if anyone has ever done better.
Brewers -175 and CC lost 4-3 to the Reds and Cueto Rockies -150 lost to the Diamondbacks 5-3 Rangers -137 lost to the Angels 7-3 White Sox -134 lost 5-2 to the Royals Mets -125 lost 4-2 to the Braves Astros -112 lost 6-4 to the Pirates
Dodgers -185 lost 1-0 to the Giants Mets -131 unfortunately lost to the Braves, 7-6 Reds -128 unfortunately lost to the Brewers, 8-1 Cardinals -112 lost to the Cubs, 5-1
Red Sox clinched at least a tie for the AL Wildcard today, could clinch a playoff spot outright with a Yankee loss tonight.
Yankee loss tonight eliminates them from playoff contention, in their last game at the House That Inflated Sense of Self-Importance Built.

Gary Sheffield is a buffoon. Just found this gem. Gary Sheffield was still plenty angry -- though much more in control after the Detroit Tigers endured a ninth-inning loss. Sheffield was one of two players from both teams ejected during a seventh-inning brawl before Jamey Carroll hit a game-winning single with one out in the ninth to give the Cleveland Indians a 6-5 win over the Tigers on Friday night. Detroit's Miguel Cabrera hit two two-run homers to tie Carlos Quentin of the Chicago White Sox for the AL lead with 36. Cabrera's second homer gave Detroit a 4-2 lead in the seventh. One out later, Indians starter Fausto Carmona hit Sheffield in the left elbow with a pitch. Detroit's designated hitter walked slowly to first base, carrying his bat, glaring at Carmona and exchanging words with the right-hander. "Just because he's upset somebody else hit a home run, don't take it out on me," Sheffield said. "Anytime you do that, we're going to have problems, before the game, after the game, whatever you want to do." Carmona threw to first on a pickoff attempt. Sheffield motioned, yelled, then charged at him. "He gestured and I was like, 'Throw the ball to home plate,' "Sheffield said. "He called me out. He gestured come on, and I'm coming." <SNIP> "His act is tired," Sheffield said of Martinez. "All that macho, throwing your equipment off. All this stuff. Trust me. He doesn't want any of this. Trust me. If he does, just let me know, man to man and I guarantee he wouldn't want any more." Sheffield claimed Carmona has hit him three times this year. "Three strikes and you're out," Sheffield said. "And if it's number four, it gets more violent. Trust me." ------- Wait for it... Gary, maybe next time you should bring a bat, a handgun, and the whole bench to face Carmona. We know you can't back up your big mouth by yourself.
