Washington and Baltimore both clinch in an amazing night for the Beltway and both franchises are seeking redemption.
Things get tight in the AL Central, a closer should be put in moth balls and stupidity overshadows what was basically a meaningless Rays and Yankees game.

@sullybaseball if you were tapped to produce a “true story” baseball movie, what story would you like to see told?
— Nathaniel Wakeman (@wakemanna) September 5, 2014
What movie would I want to see?
Maybe a colorful and complicated brawling manager… or a woman who ran a powerful Negro League team… or a pitcher who could have been brilliant and insane… or the least likely World Series clincher of all time.
I put on my movie producer hat on The Sully Baseball Daily Podcast.
