Junior already missing the 74MPH curveball. He'll be seeing more of those today. Great test for the Padres, but they've gotta be patient. But he's not… so already a hat trick today. He's being fitted for a sombrero right now. Designated whiffer… yeah, Valdez has Junior's number. 2nd inning breakthrough - and then … Cronenworth with another outstanding AB. Rinse, Repeat. D'oh!. Just got booed as he struck out again on his last AB. Ugh. 3rd inning - more runners, more failure. They're not getting RBIs at the same rate they were earlier this month… while Cease is pitching another no-hitter so far. Well he got through the first 5 … Oy! Still, there's a real pitcher's duel going on at Petco today. Who will flinch first? Looks like we got an answer to that - Valdez flinches, Manny lines one out of the park.

Couldn't have asked for more from Cease with Adam down and Scott not having a ton of rest.

Game should be over. Cease should've had a CG today.
Still, they needed a win to keep pace today, and they did it.
Magic Number is 5
Machado en fuego. Post Season Ready.

Great series win. Cease in tremendous recent form and timely offense...almost that time.

Everyone chasing us is winning big, or already won.
Fun fact--the White Sox lost game number 117 today. They have 9 games left, and have to lose 4 to kick the Mets out of their long-standing modern day record of 120 losses in a season.
