| George Springer is merry; I'll give him that, certainly |
Yusei Kikuchi, the best pitcher in the American League since the All-Star Break, was great again against a still-tough Phillies lineup, and the bullpen behind him (Yimi, Hicks, and Romano) was spotless. All of that is delightful! And so too the first-pitch slider that skipped into Cavan Biggio's foot with the bases loaded in the bottom of the eighth to plate the winning run. This one definitely had a playoff feel throughout, and especially late, which is to say it was at times really quite miserable. But not right at the end! (So important.)
