Open Game Thread: AL Wild Card Edition

please let them both lose

MLB: AL Wild Card-New York Yankees Workout NorthJersey.com-USA TODAY NETWORK

Well. I don’t really want anything to do with this game, but here we are. A’s vs Yankees. UGH. The Yankees might well hit 8 homers and win going away. But then, so might the A’s! For some weird reason (please don’t explain, I know what it actually is) MLB is still putting playoff games on TBS. Which feels like the right place for this game, because I want to watch it as much as I want to watch Everybody Loves Raymond reruns. DEBORAH!
