9 Games To Go

Wow, wow, and wow. The Diamondbacks come back from behind twice to win this game 6-4, after a less than stellar outing from their starter Doug Davis. The bullpen once again held up, throwing 4 great innings, including Jose Valverde's MLB leading 46th save.

As for the other teams they are watching? The Mets won, keeping pace. The Phillies lost, losing ground. The Dodgers lost, to the Rockies, who have now overtaken LA in the wildcard race. Not that it matters. As for the Padres? The Pirates, who they were playing, ONCE AGAIN BLEW A LEAD, being up by a run with two outs in the 9th. The Pirates promptly gave up a walk-off, three run home run to former Dback Scott Hairston. I only hope the Pirates will play this horrifically against the Dbacks next week.

Dbacks are off tomorrow, and return to action Friday against the Dodgers (a game i will be at). Like i said, as long as the Dbacks take care of their own business, nothing else matters. Magic number (as far as i'm concerned) is down to 5. Anybody, anytime...
