Finally the schedule is trued up and with 9 games to go, RedSox have recovered the August swoon to be 2 up on NY, 3 on Blue Jays and 4 on Seattle. Oakland is on mathematical life support. I think the Sox could go 5-4 and be one of the WCs , 6-3 would be WC1, playing one game at Fenway to get into the ALDS.
How many one game playoffs and WS #7's have we seen over the last 50 years that make you wonder about home field advantage ?
