I say 2000 because 2014 seemed like a long shot. They had to win on the Saturday to make the Sunday relevant and then they were eliminated in the middle of the game.
2000 saw close divisional races in the Wildcard and Division. The bittersweet part about this weekend is things could go well and the season could still be over early next week.
This time around feels different. They control their own destiny and Boston is on the road. It will be a nail-biting three days and hopefully we see better crowds as the crowds have been pathetic for a playoff race.
The Mariners are tied for the last wildcard spot with three games to go. In these cases I've always thought it was the benefit of the team that played first in the playoff race. That is Boston for tonight and tomorrow but all games start at 3pm ET 12 PT on Sunday.
It should be a interesting finish to the season and I really hope it comes down to Sunday. That baseball is so intense.
I think both teams win tonight which would set up Sunday being important no matter what.
Hoping to write tomorrow and will talk about what went down.
