The Royals, Blue Jays and Dodgers have all avoided death in Game 4, and now return home for Game 5. They have the advantage, right? Not necessarily.
Since the inception of the LDS (that’s baseball, not the religion), there have been 23 series that went to Game 5. The Home team has won just 8 times, and only 3 times in the last 16.
Of course, none of that means anything – we all start a new every game. And after being down 2-1, coming home for those 3 teams means they are still alive. But they each have their work cut out
LOL DelPhan… “Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and saviour Zack Greinke?”

I want to adopt the precocious little girl who came up with that just so we can chant it together. Kid after my own heart.

Home team went 2-for-2 in these home-cookin’ games today. Maybe there’s something to the poutine and ribs diet.
I’ll be pulling for the visitors in tomorrow night’s game. Utley is too much of a Buttley to root for the Dodgers.

The only player on the Mets I can cheer for is Bartolo The Beast. And their “fans” are atrocious.
