“And though you fight to stay alive, your body starts to shiver.” – Thriller by Michael Jackson
There are few teams I hate in baseball, but the Mets are among them. The list also includes the Cardinals, Padres, Marlins, Diamondbacks, and Dodgers. I don’t hate the Brewers, but that’s because they were my favorite AL team back in the day, especially when Phil Garner and his troops beat up on Terry Bevington‘s White Sox. Last night’s 10-3 victory was especially wonderful because it decreased Chicago’s magic number for home-field advantage over San Diego to two, and it reduced the Mets’ odds of making the playoffs to 56.
