Those numbers would be counts that ended on next pitch. But, not sure on walks at 3-2.

A new kind of fan interference is developing!  Fans pushing the protective flexible net in toward the field around home plate on foul pops when home team is batting.  Cubbies fans, with their team batting and runners on 2nd and 3rd, intentionally pushed the net in at least 20" and ticked the ball as it was coming down and the Pitt catcher still caught it.  Home plate umpire made an out call and 3B umpire pointed out it had hit the net on the way down, so they went to the video and called him safe.  Cubs went on to score another run in the inning.  I don't know if they considered calling the batter out due to fan interference, but it surely should have been!

AJ Pollock smokes a 2 out, 3 run HR to CF to put the Dodgers behind 6-2 in the 5th.

Looks like the NL centrral and west along with the wild card berths are coming down to the last weekend. 

Will the Cubs come into it tied with the Brewers or be one game up?  Will the Rockies come into it tied with the Dodgers or one game up.   That will be Thursday's action.

Neither of the division titles will be settled head to head the last weekend.  I'm rooting for LA to be left out of the playoffs and St. Louis to be playing their 4th game in a row in Chicago for the wild card berth and no delays from any weather!

I'm looking for FUCK ST. LOUIS followed by Milwaukee finishing ahead of the Cubs and then, in the wild card game, FUCK CHICAGO. After that, the NL can sort itself out any way it wants, since my two least favorite teams are gone.

On the Pirates blog I go to, I saw a comment along the lines of "Meh, the Pirates got a total of 23 HRs from 1st and 3rd base last year; who needs him?"  (with much sarcasm, of course) and I thought for a minute and then nearly lost it over the concept of a team being so bad at power hitting that they got so little production from those two positions AND apparently not feeling they need to do much about it while a division rival is dealing prospects left and right to bring in a legit stud.
