Baseball is a weird sport, but that lineup top to bottom is just unlike anything that we've seen in a while. When a third of the lineup goes ice cold, the other 5 or 6 are there to pick them up.
    This is what has to hit home about baseball more than any other sport. As I say often, it's the only sport where success is failing only 70% of the time.

    That's hall of fame level success...

    Best line up in baseball. If the pitching staff can keep the ball in the ballpark, it's going to be hard to beat this team. They're playing hungry after last year's playoff gaff too.
