I need a baseball buff to clue me in on something.
Why is the one playoff game between Texas and Baltimore being played in Texas? When two teams finish with the identical record, isn't each teams respective divisional winning percentage the next tie-breaker, or is that only in football? I was expecting this game to be played in Baltimore.
Crazy wind in Atlanta today. Balls are really carrying.

1. Head-to-head winning percentage during the 2012 regular season.
2. Higher winning percentage in intradivision games.
3. Higher winning percentage in the last half of intraleague games.
4. Higher winning percentage in the last half plus one intraleague game, provided that such additional game was not between the two tied clubs. Continue to go back one intraleague game at a time until the tie has been broken.
Not the way Chipper would want to end his career. He made that costly throwing error and is zip for three at the plate so far. All in an elimination game for his team. He will get at least one more chance at redemption.
The Cardinals have but four hits and zero walks, yet enjoy six runs.
Atlanta hasn't just made three errors, they have made sure that they were meaningful errors.
