Braves at Dodgers 8/31-9/3

On the road out West where games start at mid-night on East coast.

 

[VolPack22]

The A’s are on pace to lose 118 games

The A’s are on pace to lose 118 games

Have they won 32 games yet?

 

[youcancallmeAl]

Chipper Jones & Andruw Jones are sitting in front of the other.

A true out of body experience?

 

[youcancallmeAl]

Yanks lose, O's win. 6 straight for O's.

 

[VolPack22]

Have they won 32 games yet?

They have 25 wins. The Royals have 26 wins. The Twins lead the AL Central at 46-46. The Tigers are 10 games under .500 but are only 5GB in the division. If the Phillies played in the AL Central they would lead by 3 games. Lots of suckage going on over in the AL.

 

[VolPack22]

Oh and the Red Sox and Yankees are tied for last in the AL East
