Sox Qualify!
the Red Sox, that is, have qualified for the post-season - if they don't win the AL East, they'll take the wild card. Since they're 3 behind the Yankees with 6 to play, winning the Division doesn't seem likely.
In any case, I'm expecting them to go 4-2 the rest of the way. Why? Because, back in March, I predicted a 98-64 season in the Bosox list competition. And if they manage it, this will be the third year in a row that I've got it right... :-)
Go Sox! All the way!
Must write up my Worldcon notes, including the Wednesday Trip to Fenway, some time soon...

The Cubs aren't done yet. I must chide my fellow Cubs fans who keep saying this year's team isn't as good as last years -- look at the record. Admittedly, they shouldn't be in contention, but at 88-68 with 6 left, they've got more wins than last year. Good news. Three more against the Reds. Bad news. Then three against Atlanta.
But I sure wish the Cubbies would get hot about now -- they've been clawing to stay in contention the entire year. The way the BoSox are starting to play just as the season ends bodes well.

The Red Sox seem to have been hot to start the season, a .500 club when Nomar came back, and to have gotten hot again after The Trade. Now where did he go...?
[I'll check the figures tomorrow].

April: 15 - 8
May: 16 - 13
June: 11 - 14
July: 14 - 12
August: 22 - 6
Sept: 16 - 9 (to date)
So while September has been good, it's April and August that were the hot months.
