With apologies to susandennis

It feels very strange to be glad that the Astros beat the Mariners, but the Mariners are getting uncomfortably close to the Red Sox for the second wild card.

Similarly, after rejoicing reflexively at the Blue Hays' beatdown of the Yankees, I had to think, wait a minute, the Jays are getting dangerous again.

I will say nothing about yesterday's Rays-Sox game, except to say that we were there, and that as a result we ended up eating out in Assembly Row rather than going home and eating leftovers as we had planned.

Of course our rooting preference will be more straightforward next week when the Sox visit Seattle. (Some late nights in our near future.)
