tl; dr version:
Mets Magic Number is 5 (must win tonight and then sweep away, or get help), or 6 if they lose tonight (would need to sweep AND have the Fish sweep Atlanta).
Braves Magic Number is 3 (a win tonight and one win in Miami does it), or 4 if they lose tonight (need the Mets to do worse against the Nats than the Chop Shop does against the Fish).
Miami, trying desperately to get butts in seats as they wind down, is running ads asking snowbird New Yorkers to come out and root against the Noc-a-Homas. Maybe Keith (who owns a house in Florida), unable to broadcast due to his bum shoulder, will swing by for a game or two.
(Probably not.)
