Sitting at the bar in buffalo wild wings in Brookings SD.  Watching the braves.  Going for lucky number 13?

An immaculate inning occurs when a pitcher strikes out all three batters he faces in one inning, using the minimum possible number of pitches (nine).[2] A total of 98 pitchers have struck out three batters on nine consecutive pitches in a half-inning of a Major League Baseball (MLB) game as of June 2022.

The Astros had two immaculate innings in todays game with the Texas Rangers from two different pitchers

This has never been done before and is a MLB record

14 straight is of course statistically improbable, even for a great team (the Braves have a good team).  It does make me wonder where they were for the first part of the season under .500.

How many in a row did Cleveland win a couple years back?  Really thought that was going to be their WS.  I think it was the year after they lost to the Cubs?  Then they wound up losing the ALDS to the Yankees.

I think the MLB record is around 20.  I figure a great team could have a 65% chance of winning a random game, which makes even 3 in a row improbable.  Of course, sweeps happen usually because a very good team is playing a rather poor team.  But once you go to double digits, ....

The funny thing is the Braves are still 4 GB.

This is my problem with extended playoffs, the best team is unlikely to win out.

I think the prior version was a good balance between rewarding the regular season, but still making for an entertaining postseason.  Particularly with the unbalanced schedule so you played a ton of division games

I'm OK with four, would be OK with six I think, not so much 8.
