The New York Mets have something to hold over their crosstown rival Yankees this year, besides winning the season series against them.

The club tallied 8 runs this past Sunday for the 1st time.  If officially clinched their 11th different game total from 0 – 10 runs for a game.

This made them the 28th squad to complete the quest, and the 1st team in a few weeks.

The showdown for 29th, and to not come in last – is now a 1996 World Series rematch between the Yankees and Braves. Read the rest of this entry →

It has not been a banner year for the Arizona Diamondbacks. They are challenging for the worst record in the Majors and finished 27th in this contest. At least they completed the Runs Survivor contest with a win (9 – 8 in 14 innings) over Cleveland last night. The effort also gave the National League a 5 – 0 sweep in Interleague Play

The Diamondbacks finally fought off the Indians with a 9 – 8 win in 14 Innings last night.  Not only that, but they became the 27th team in the MLB to score in 11 different scenarios 0 – 10 for the 2014 year.

This contest now boils down to the Braves, Yankees and Mets all needing an 8 run contest, to see who can avoid finishing in last.

Arizona has played the most games in the MLB, so I am not surprised they completed before the other teams.

By virtue of the game, they also closed the book on the NL west division, who finished 4th in the divisional race.  Only the AL and NL East have clubs yet to finish. Read the rest of this entry →
