We become Champions tonight.

Can it really happen???

IN for the Title!

How appropriate that it will be steady Eddie on the hill for the win. Our most consistent starting pitcher all year and with all the recent stuff with family tragedy, etc.

You can't script it any better to finish.

Baseball gods finally back on our side. Let's finish this!

In it to win it! Time for the magic to happen.

Bring that crown home fellas.

I really, really hope that Volquez goes out and throws a no hitter.

Al I really love your GDT but enough is enough. Lets make this one the last one of the year. TAKE THE CROWN!!!!

Ready. Let's take it now.

Quote from Volquez:

"I'm pretty sure my dad is going to be proud of me when I pitch tomorrow"
