So the Tigers steamroll into the World Series with the 4-0 sweep of Oakland. It’s funny how much Mark Kotsay’s comments reflect Billy Beane’s “my shit doesn’t work in the playoffs” - except more erudite:
“There’s a thing called the chaos theory, where you just can’t control certain things,” Athletics outfielder Mark Kotsay said. “We had no control. We did our best. There wasn’t a lack of effort, just a lack of execution.”
Is it weird that the ALCS and NLCS were Tigers, As, Cardinals, Mets? It’s like going back to the 80s…
