BRAVES AND RED SOX KNOCKED OUT ON THE FINAL OF THE SEASON

The Atlanta Braves lead the Phillies 3-2 entering the top of the 9th inning last night before the Phillies got a run in the top of the 9th and won the game in the 13th inning and coming away with a 4-3 win.  The Braves had several chances to win the game before coming up short and with Cardinals crushing the Astros the Cards win the NL Wildcard.  The Red Sox suffered the same fate last night losing to the Orioles 4-3 and Tampa beating the Yankees 8-7 in 12 innings.  The Rays trailed the Yankees 7-0 before getting 6 in the bottom of the 8th inning and getting another in the 9th on a solo HR with 2 strikes and 2 out on the batter.  The Braves and Red Sox don't have anybody to blame but themselves to blame for not making the playoffs.  The cold weather is on the way for this weekend.  MICKEY
