So the Braves won last night (M's went down fighting, but down nonetheless) and we're now in 2nd place.

The Tragic Number is 24, so we can't be eliminated until September 22nd, at earliest. But still.

And DirecTV has decided not to offer tonight's PIX-11 telecast (they've done all the others so far this season), so all I have available is the Marlins feed. Not that I have anything against Rich Waltz and Tommy Hutton (they may be one of my favorite non-Mets broadcast teams, actually), but I'd prefer GKR.

Even if I'm dreading the moment when Gary finds out that the #4 seed gets to host all three games in the first round and starts working that into his "does it really matter how the Mets reach the playoffs?" pre-concession speeches.

The good news is that SNY replays the PIX telecast, tomorrow morning at 0600 Eastern. The bad news is that DirecTV likes to black out MLB rebroadcasts.

But the better news is that, given something is almost guaranteed to go sideways (either I don't get to record anything at all or I get spoiled for the result while waiting for a re-air that got blacked out anyways), this makes the Mets a heavy favorite to win tonight. You're welcome.
