another way to spin it.
6 games out, after being 7 games out on August 28 when I posted. That's a two week spread of time.
At this rate, they'll catch the pirates in 12 weeks!
Plus a third of the remaining games for the Pirates and the Reds are against each other, so unless one team sweeps, it's tough to gain ground on either team.
Cubs, Brewers, Astros, Mets, and Padres are the remaining teams they face. But stranger things have happened, especially in the last two years.
