IL 2006 Series 3

[gsp]

Only 6 games last night so I will edit this tomorrow.

HT---------------4-2-----------3-5-------7-7
Fav---------------3-3-----------3-5-------6-8
HF----------------2-1-----------3-5-------8-6
RF----------------1-2
Totals-----------1-5-----------7-1-------8-6

Yesterday I posted that my plays were NYY and Cle. Both were 2-4 in IL. Today they are 2-5. Bos and Det were both 5-1 and now are 6-1. My point is that you might look at how a team is doing in IL before you jump on them.

An interesting game for me today is Sea/LAD. Sea is the only 6-0 team in IL but this is their first road game. LAD is 3-3 but they are 3-0 at home. Sea beat SF and SD. Both were 2-1 except for Sea. SF is now 3-1. LAD swept Ana who is 1-5 at home but got swept by Oak who was 4-2 at home but lost on the road last night to Colo who is now 4-0.

Another interesting match-up is CWS/Stl. CWS is 5-1 going 3-0 on the road but 2-1 at home losing to CC who is 1-5. They swept Cinn, another 1-5 team. Stl is 3-0 on the road. They swept KC who is 2-4 after taking 2 at Hou.

My point, don't put too much on the over-all record of these teams when it comes to IL.

Home favs will prevail.

Game 1 still didn't look like IL but game 2 started looking like a IL series.

HT------------4-2--------5-3---------9-5
Favs-----------6-0-------3-5---------9-5
HF-------------4-0-------3-3---------7-3
RF-------------2-0-------0-2---------2-2
Totals--------3-3-------3-4-1------6-7-1

4 series already decided. Undecided is Cle and Phil. Game 1 winners were CC (dog today) and Phil (pk today).

Sea (7-0) and Colo (5-0) are the only undefeated teams left. Sea had no trouble winning as a big dog over LAD.

All 5 teams that were 5-1 won. Minn as a nice dog. Colo is the only NL team that hasn't lost. Stl is the only NL team with just 1 loss (3-1)

Thanks GSP and sorry about that! I did just read that Seattle is 10-1 on the over in IL!

Over is 10-1-0 in SEA last 11 interleague games.

Game 3

HT--------------2-4--------5-3------------7-7
Fav-------------3-3--------6-2------------9-5
HF--------------2-3--------4-1------------6-4
RF--------------1-0--------2-1------------3-1
Totals---------1-3-2-----2-6------------3-9-2

Teams that won game 1 has won series 11-1 so far. Fla won game 1 but lost game 2 and is a dog today. Minn won game one lost game 2 and is the fav today.

Sea is only undefeated team.

Bos, CWS, TB are 7-1 with Colo at 5-1

Ari and Atl have not won a game. Both 0-5. How bad is Atl? 9-21 last 30. Who said KC was bad? They are 11-19 their last 30 and it looks like they are playing tougher competition when you look at what the AL is doing to the NL. Colo at 5-1 is the best NL team and they've only played 2 series. Det at 7-2 has a better record than any NL team and there are 4 AL teams with a better record than that.

Ole Miss Rebel, if you checked my other thread you saw that I went 2-0 and Sea was one of the two.

This wraps up Series 3. Hard to believe how bad the NL is doing. The three worst teams are all NL. Atl and Ari are at 0-6 with Pit at 1-8. Ana is the worst AL team at 2-7.

Sea finally got their first loss. Here's the leaders

Sea, Bos, Minn, CWS and TB are 8-1. Det at 7-2 and Colo the top NL team at 5-1.

The only thing about this series that resembles IL play is that the team that wins game 1 wins series went 13-1 for the second series in a row.

Good luck in the next series.
