The Final Stretch Begins

Today, the Angels beat the Yankees and with the Rangers' loss, the Angels have now clinched the AL West. Rodriguez also got his 56th save, inching him to within one of Bobby Thigpen's record of 57 in one season.

The Phillies lost today to the Marlins 7-3. This means that if the Mets win their game tonight, they will increase their lead to 3 1/2 games over Philadelphia.

Tonight, Jose Reyes set the Mets' club record with his 283rd stolen base in the third inning moving him past Mookie Wilson. He went on to also steal third in the middle of a six run inning for the Mets.

It's going to be an interesting final three weeks of the season. All I'm going to hear about everyday is the collapse of '07.
