It was nice to see that small ball is still alive and well with the way that power has dominated the game over the last 25 years. It can take you far if you play it right.

Great game, but it hurt to see the A's eliminated. Still, this looks to be a fun postseason.

1:00 AM is too late a finish for me. Wish they'd start these things a little earlier. Sounded like a classic.

Can't believe Perez drove in the winning run. His ABs in the 8th and 10th were absolutely horrendous.
FWIW, KC would have been in and Oakland out, before Bud introduced this ridiculous second wild card.

All the people that complain about games ending too late can solve their problem by moving west. For Barry, he needs to move to Hawaii to be able to stay up late enough, but for most, California would be fine. Games don't end late there, they start early.
Great game. Not a fan of the A's because Billy Beane gets a lot of credit for someone with no WS rings in 17 years, but I would have rooted for them over seeing the Cardinals or Giants win again. Good luck to the Royals in the postseason, hope you lose to the Pirates in the series.

I'll stay put, thank you. I don't even know where Hawaii is...

It was a great game last night. Growing up, I was in boy scouts, and my scoutmaster who lived down the street was a huge huge huge Royals fan. He died of a brain tumor in the early 90's. While watching the Royals comeback, I could only imagine him out there in the crowd, cheering the team on. It made me kind of sad, but kind of happy at the same time. Sad that he couldn't live to see it, but happy to be reminded of a great neighbor, friend, and mentor.
Now.... tonight... GO GIANTS! (Though dammit Pittsburgh, why didn't you just win your division so we could have knocked off the Cardinals in the wild card game!). I am a Giants fan through and through but won't cry if the Pirates move on, so long as they keep advancing! I actually don't even care about anything this year other than I just want the Dodgers to lose, and lose badly. In embarrassing fashion

Was one of the better post season games played in a long time. Thought Oakland was going to win but not to be.
