How did they do that?

No, seriously, I want an explanation. How the f&*k did they just do that?

Three straight elimination games. Three different opponents. A clubhouse seemingly divided against itself with a manger who can’t even really be accused of running the asylum since he’s basically one of the inmates. A team that managed to cough up a 2.5 game lead with six to play. A team that couldn’t beat a pair of tomato can pitchers thrown out by the Cleveland Indians Friday and Saturday. A team without it’s best hitter, best third baseman, pitching a young lefthander on short rest for the first time in his career.

A team that’s going to the playoffs. Your 2008 AL Central Champions, against all the odds…

Bring on Tampa.
