ARI 10, MIL 6

Updated 10/6/11 5:11 PM with correct math/standings...sorry, and thanks for catching the screw-up, Broomie. Anyone else catches me doing "arithmetic," send an email.
 
You know, this series looked the most eminently sweepable to me. ...Well, maybe Philadelphia/St. Louis looked more sweepable, but I just didn't think Arizona could contain the MIL hitting attack, like, at all. To a certain extent, that's been true (see: Arizona's failure to pick up blowout points this evening), but the series is even at two each.

The primary pool effect, of course, is to carry Milwaukee a few more rounds so that those picks get more points. But we do have a new leader this evening. Ladies and germs, the return of former champ Ben to the money!


But ze lead, she ees waffer-theen.

Aaron 2: 71
Ben 2: 69.67
Aaron 1: 69
Costa 2: 67
Keith: 65.33
Jill Love: 65
Reid 1 and Matt: 64
Warren 2: 61.33
Broom/Rom and Maria 1: 61
Lauren, Ben 1, Reid 2, and Tom: 60
O'Reilly 1 and BSD: 58
Bunting 2: 57
Costa 1: 55.33
Maria 2: 55
John: 53
Dave Pepper: 51
O'Reilly 2: 49.33
Broomfield: 49
Jill Hate and Bunting 1: 48
Warren 1: 46.34
Sheehan/Bell: 46

Despite the elimination of Tampa, the pack remains pretty tight. That should change tomorrow night when the Tigers go to the Bronx for all the marbles.

So, I'm in a tie with myself. Glad I could take the "kissing your sister" analogy to an even more uncomfortable (and less profitable) place.

As it turns out, you aren't, because I boned the math (happens every year -- thanks for the assist, Broomfield!). I'll update the post shortly.
