Last night was strange in the big leagues.
The Mariners keep giving the ball to a closer who is having a terrible season and he was awful last night. Derrek Norris had a rotten night at the plate. And yet both were celebrating at the end!
Meanwhile in Little League, a nice friendly game turned petty because of one coach and competitive because of my nature!

Odds To Win The 2015 MLB World Series Week 8
The Tigers have captured the AL Central in 4 straight years, and I think this year will mark the 5th. This is the highest odd this team has had to win the Fall Classic in years. Full value, and you best jump on it now.
Hunter Stokes (Chief Writer): Follow @stokes_hunter21
Follow The MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
Heading into week 8 I still love the Tigers for the best value currently at +1200.
It seems I bang this drum all the time for the Motown Boys, however Miguel Cabrera is healthy this year, they have Yoenis Cespedes, and David Price is a legit ace.
There is no doubt that KC is a formidable opponent to the AL Central, but I like them to play just .500 the rest of the way through.
The whole Royals lineup is north of .300 (or career bests), and Chris Young can’t continue this torrid stretch of brilliant pitching.
I think the KC club is still and, 85 – 89 win club all day long, and I am happy I marked them as one of my favorite over/unders in the preseason, with a low total of 81 victories as the line.

Hunter Stokes (Chief Writer): Follow @stokes_hunter21
Follow The MLB Reports On Twitter Follow @mlbreports
The number one team in the game right now is the Washington Nationals. They have won 18 of 22 games, and have the best hitter and pitcher in the National League right now, with Bryce Harper (11 HRs n May so far, that includes being kicked out of 2 games early, and a couple of off days.)
Really, the Nats haven’t had much from Stephen Strasburg, Doug Fister, and throw in an injured Jayson Werth, and it should mean the team is struggling.
The underrated Denard Span, and Yunel Escobar of all guys, are really playing superb at the top of the lineup. Ryan Zimmerman always has a ton of runners on, and is on pace for 120 RBI with just a mid .200 Average.
Washington also should beat up on the National League East for the remainder of the year. With the exception of the Mets, the Phillies, Marlins and Braves should all provide the proverbial speedbag position, for this club to beat up on.
