Outside The Confines: Reversal of fortune

We’ve only got three games today since the Rangers swept the Orioles. Both the Astros and Diamondbacks will be looking to advance to their respective Championship Series today, whereas the Braves and Phillies will play at least one more game tomorrow.

  • Mike Petriello published this piece before yesterday’s game, but he wants to remind us that the Rangers sweep of the Orioles should not be considered an upset. The Orioles, despite winning 11 games, weren’t really any better or worse than the Rangers. The two teams were actually pretty evenly matched.
