Last off-day of the season for the Dodgers, so let's start watching the scoreboards around the relevant NL teams:
- Brewers @ Braves, 4p. Marco Estrada (6-4, 4.26) vs. Mike Minor (13-7, 3.19). Braves are two games up on the Dodgers, with the best record in the NL (92-63).
- Mets @ Reds, 4p. Former Dodgers Aaron Harang (5-12, 5.69) faces Johnny Cueto (5-2, 3.02). Reds are tied with the Pirates for the NL Wild Card, and both are two games behind St. Louis.
- Pirates @ Cubs, 5p. Charlie Morton (7-4, 3.35) vs. Jeff Samardzija (8-12, 4.42).
- Nationals @ Cardinals, 5p. Tanner Roark (7-0, 1.08) vs. Adam Wainwright (17-9, 2.98). For those of you not down with the transitive property, St. Louis is one game ahead of the Dodgers as the NL Central leader.

James Loney 3-run walkoff HR.
(Not a comment from 2007.)
I only have it as a one-run walkoff HR (a pinch-hit HR, too), but Loney nonetheless.
It's funny to watch the highlight and see FJL calmly hand his batting helmet to the Rays' third base coach upon rounding third.
Orioles get swept in TB. Brutal.
Atlanta down 1-0 to the Brewers, bottom 2
It looks like Loney finally found the weight room down in Tampa. Either that or Tampa has a better locker-room spread
Jayson Werth just hit a two-run shot for the Nationals to give Washington a 2-0 lead on St Louis in the first
Atlanta still losing 1-0.
Reds, Pirates both up by a run in their games
Brewers go up 3-0 on a Lucroy HR. On to the bottom of the fifth in Atlanta.
Now updated with screen-shotty goodness
Brewers shut out the Braves 5-0, St Louis and Wash tied at two
Oops, a Beltran homer puts STL up 4-2
Mets n Reds go to the 9th tied at 2
Pirates still up 1-0, mid-8th
The tweet I saw said 3-run. Maybe it was a tweet from 2007.
Pirates give up a run in the bottom of the 8th, Reds with a guy at 3rd, nobody out in the 9th
Ludwick has left 8 runners on tonight so far but has a chance to win it with 2 on, one out
Aardvark gets Ludwick to pop up, 10 LOB, now walking Jay Bruce
Todd Frazier up with 2 outs and a rancho
Astros are in good shape for 110 losses
Going to extras in Cincy, tied at 2
Frazier loops one to center after Choo was at third with nobody out, crazy escape act by Aardvark
Pirates retake the lead on the Cubbies
Starling Marte homer
Josh Satin lines one to center to lead off the 10th
quite a few Pie-Rats fans in Chicago
ugh EYJr lines into a double play, going to the bottom of the 10th in Cincy
Watson gets the first lefty batter with help from alvarez, Grilli in for the final 2 outs
according to the Mets announcers, there have been 235 extra inning games this season, 2 off the record set 2 years ago
Dinner draws a walk vs Grilli
Mourneau makes a great play at first for the second out for Pitt
Wash within 1 vs St Louis
Reds got something cooking off some cheap hits
Holy shit, Bucs win with a play at the plate!
Single by Sweeney with 2 outs, Byrd bobbles it and they send Schierholz, McCutchen via relay to Morneau around the mound nails him at home
Bucs get in with a Washington loss, I believe
Mets doing their best to let in the winning run
Choo with a long fly ball/game-winning single. They get in with a Wash loss as well
Gotta go to bed, I hope Wash can come back in the 9th
Go check out the replay of the game ender in Chicago
Gnite all
Nats lose. Reds won too.
Why Schierholtz didn't fully barrel into Martin at home is beyond me. Schierholtz also ran out of gas rounding third; he looked slower than Eric Karros.
Martin made the tag at the plate. He is batting .230.
Sparks lose by a point, are bounced from the playoffs by Phoenix. Brutal.
Thanks for that WNBA commentary, Sax!
I'm fast like Mercury, Dusty!
Actually, I was hoping for the LA championship trifecta: Galaxy, Sparks, and Dodgers
If only our roller derby team were having an up year.
Our jammers only have a WAR of +2
