Yeah the NL East is going to be killer this year. The Phillies, who seemed dead in the water have gone on a surge and now there's 1.5 games between first and last. Should be some great inter-division games. Of course that means that they're going to beat each oher up so much that they'll probably only get one team in. You can forget the wild-card coming out of there. Should be an entertaining, and gut-wrenching if you're a fan of one of these teams, season. Just as proof: The Mets can finish today in first OR last after the double-header against the Giants. Insanse  :omg:

I can't believe my eyes the last two weeks. The Phillies have been 8-2 in their last 10 games I believe. They were 5 or 6 games back just a week and a half ago, and now they're a contender.

:yes:

Whoa, you said it. The Nationals are looking pretty good right now. All of the teams in the NL East are gonna be fun to watch.

Dont forget us Canadians. The Blue Jays are doing pretty good this year. Halladay is, in my opinion, the top pitcher in the MLB right now. Tonight he just finished his 5th, I tihnk it was whole game. Next closest is a bunch of guys at 2. I know Im keeping my eye on them.

Gagne's season might be over. To go from Cy Young winner two years ago to all these injuries so quickly must suck. What a rapid descent. The guy was so dominant with the 84 consecutive saves record streak and he was working on another one with 18 consecutive. Hope he can come back if he has this surgery.

holy crap! yanks were down 10 - 2 and are now up 20 - 11 as I speak. 13 runs in one inning including back to back to back homeruns.

It's the Devil Rays. They should've been doing this to them all season, not getting swept earlier. Sorry just couldn't let you get too excited :p

WOW! What a game... I was thinking back in the fourth inning that the game was over and the Yanks come back like old times :happy:

No matter the team, 13 runs in one inning is unreal.

Indeed. I would even have to congratulate Boston if they did that :yes:

yeah i was watching... its exciting, but i feel absolutely terrible for that pitcher and the devil rays... i was in their position once and it does not feel good. i wish the yankees would do this to boston or another good team...

i'd rather see the yankees lose a good game to the devil rays then win a game like this.

I'm done going to Pirates games. I'm 0/3. I saw them lose to the Braves, Nationals, and someone else. They win tonight when I have to work and can't go. WHAT IS UP WITH THIS.

    • What browser do you prefer to use, and why?

      By +Edouard · Posted

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      By The Norwegian Drone Pilot · Posted

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
