This is why we love

Sundays in the fall are always fun days in sports because you have football scores and stats coming in all day. But today is special, if SanDiego loses, and the Mets, Philies, and Rockies all win there will be 4 teams in the National League with the same record. (89-73). So after 162 games we will have decided nothing. This would mean a 3 day playoff that would not see the playoffs start until Thursday. The Mets and Philies would play for the National League East on Monday in Philadelpia. The winner of that game takes the division, and the loser plays San Diego. The winner of that game hosts Colorado for the right to be the wildcard team.
I have no rooting interesting in any of these team, but I am rooting for a 4 team playoff that would be great for the sport.
