Man, it has been a rough post season for starting pitchers so far. EVERYONE’S bats are on fire. Hell, even an Arizona RELIEVER got an RBI triple tonight.

It was a wild game but Arizona held on and sadly the prospect of a World Series played in Denver and Minnesota will have to wait another year.

So who owned October?

Each winning team for every post season game gets a pitcher and a hitter who earn a full WOO (Who Owns October.)

And at my discretion, I award a 1/2 WOO’S to a worthy player on the losing team.

At the end of the post season, we will see who had the highest WOO total as a pitcher and a hitter.

A complete description of the rules can be found HERE.

From October 4
2017 National League Wild Card Game:

Receiving 1 WOO

Ketel Marte tripled from both sides of the plate, scored a run and drove in another to lead the potent Diamondbacks lineup past Colorado, 11-8.

Robbie Ray threw 2 1/3 innings out of the bullpen, striking out 3 Rockies and allowing 1 run as the Diamondbacks held on, 11-8.

Receiving 1/2 WOO

Chris Rusin threw 2 1/3 shutout innings of relief, fanning 3 Diamondbacks and stopped the bleeding for a while. The Rockies could not complete the comeback and fell, 11-8.

Trevor Story got 2 hits including a homer in the Rockies 11-8 loss to Arizona.
