Cause we are losers, baby, so why don't you kill us

The Braves lost again tonight. They lost to the Mets, 7-4.

Why was this loss more significant than all the others this season? BEcause it clinched the first losing record since 1990. After tonight's game, the Braves sit at 77-82, making it mathematically impossible to finish with a .500 record.

However, that wasn't the big story coming out of Atlanta tonight. No, the big story is that Pedro Martinez will miss the entire postseason due to a leg injury.

The Mets might not want to print up those World Series tickets just yet.

Of course, if they don't win it all, remember, just winning the division is a sign of a successful season. Just making the playoffs is enough.

Right?
