We are talking about The Division Series on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast today.

The Pirates have a legit shot against the Cardinals if they can steal one of the first two games.

And we fellow Red Sox fans should be worried about the match up with the Rays.

I wanted anarchy!

I got it! The season and the playoff picture can not be decided in 162 games. We need one more to settle it out.

Meanwhile, the day to day friend of listening and watching baseball has come to a close.

Those topics plus talking about never ending games in Houston, triumph in Cleveland and the wild no hitter in Miami on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

It is THE SUNDAY REQUEST on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

I take a look at where the playoffs will probably go (after the Wild Card mess is sorted out of course) and comparing my good picks (St. Louis) and not so good picks (Giants and Angels) from the beginning of the year.

What do I want?

I want anarchy in the AL Wild Card. I want it to be a total mess with a 3 way tie.

Meanwhile in Texas, why are the Angels and Rangers basically wearing identical uniforms? How hard is it to coordinate which jersey each team is wearing?

Who Owned Baseball Yesterday (September.23rd) – Updated Yearly ‘WOB’ Standings

Alex Rios hit for the cycle, finishing a 4-4 night with 3 runs scored and 4 RBI as the Rangers kept up in the Wild Card race with a 12-0 pounding of the Astros.

Wade Davis entered a game with the winning run on third and the Royals season on the line in the 10th. He wiggled out of the jam with some help from his outfield defense and pitched a 1-2-3 11th and got the decision in Kansas City’s 6-5 potential season saving win against the Mariners.

Shin-Soo Choo went 3-6 with 2 RBI, a pair of stolen bases and the walk off hit that put the Reds into October as they squeaked past the Mets, 3-2.

Charlie Morton was brilliant over 7 shutout innings, letting up only 3 hits and walking 1. He did not get the decision but his dominating performance set up the Pirates 2-1 victory over the Cubs, clinching at least a Wild Card for Pittsburgh.

They all owned baseball on September 23, 2013.

My explanation for “Who Owns Baseball” can be found here.

At the end of the year, we will tally up who owned baseball the most individual days and see how it compares to the final MVP and Cy Young vote.

The Red Sox won the AL East.

I said they were going to stink. I was wrong. And MAN I am glad to eat crow about THAT one. And I do eat crow on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.

But the Pirates are making big mistakes, and none bigger than keeping Mark Melancon in the closer role.

The Dodgers earned their NL West title with an amazing second half. Remember they were only a game above .500 after the All Star Break.

Meanwhile the Diamondbacks look like a bunch of whining spineless wimps and I compared them to Sweathog Arnold Horshack.

With the pennant chases taking shape, it is interesting to see the potential World Series match ups in terms of a historical perspective.

For example, the Braves and A’s once met in the World Series. But it was two cities ago for each team.

And the A’s and Pirates could meet for the first time despite many near misses.

These topics and more on today’s episode of  THE SULLY BASEBALL DAILY PODCAST.

Rejoice Pirate fans! Not only do you now have a winning baseball team, but you will NEVER have to read about how the Pirates can’t have a winning team.

Relax and enjoy some baseball.

Last night’s game was so great that I make the case in today’s episode of The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast that Gerrit Cole’s performance was more impressive than Gio Gonzalez’s near no hitter.

Plus I talk about low attendance and stealing signs.
