2-run HR for Neil Walker. 4-0 Pirates.

Hughes replaces Morton with 2 outs and the bases loaded in the
7th.

A lot more plausible that we finish ahead of Giants than that we
pass Pirates.

Of course.
Giants is likely either making post-season or not making
post-season. Pirates is home field or not. Making post-season
bigger priority by wide margin.

Correct. If the Cubs can get some separation from the Giants,
then we can root for them in matchups against Pittsburgh.

Giants have a tough stretch right now but they have a relatively
easy schedule to close out the year. We need as many games on
then as possible, especially with the 13 games left against the
Cardinals/Pirates and the tough 6 game Giants/Dodgers trip next
week. I'll be perfectly happy to go in as the second wildcard
this season. That would be amazing and anything beyond that
game would be icing on the cake.

Stop that! ;D
Whole point of playing 162 games and getting into post-season is
to reach the World Series and WIN.
Will suck to lose wild card game or to lose any post-season
series.
Not that keen on a participatory medal this season. Would not
assume that subsequent seasons better than this season. Never
know.

Heh heh, I'd like to win something. But if we have 162 games of
fascination and fun, and then one bad day, I'm sure not going to
focus on the one sad day. Let's keep the fun going for 162
games, so that we can take our chances in a sudden death.
But I think I'm going to enjoy if it things stay fun for the
full 162 games.

Yeah, regular season is great...but there has been a
let's-temper-expectations thread on this board all season.
Don't care for that at all.
World Series is not iceing on the cake. It's what these guys
play for.
And, same for fans. Let's think like Yankees fans or Cardinals
fans. Things are different now.
