Posted October 16, 200717 yr "Don't ask how a team that was a mere four games over .500 on Sept. 15 could make it here from where this team came from. From nine games under .500 (18-27) in May. From six games out in the wild-card race in September. From 4? games back in that wild-card race with only nine games to play. From two games behind with two games to play, and having to watch that Padres team they were trying to catch get within one strike of clinching. From two runs behind in the 13th inning of the 163rd game of the year, a game they never should have had a chance to play in the first place. Has any team ever overcome all of that to play in a World Series? Not a chance." Link:http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs2007/columns/story?columnist=stark_jayson&id=3065637
