Taking a gander at the meteorological conditions for tonight’s deciding game at Fulton County Stadium in Atlanta.
All appears clear in the southeast corner of the US. At least according to the Doppler Radar. However, it is once again around 90 degrees here in SW Indiana and if the greater metropolitan Atlanta area is also subject to similar heat and humidity one of those sudden popup thunderstorms could appear. My money is on a clear night in Atlanta tonight.
And does anybody think the Phillies will score 10 runs in the first like the Redbirds did back in 2019 in the deciding game?
The gamecast says that the Cubs/Padres game tonight will be on Peacock.
I wonder if it will be on NBC as well?
If it is on nothing but Peacock then I will not be able to view it.
Yes sirree Pugs!
The nor’easter is pummeling the eastern seaboard as we speak. I bet Commissioner Reagan and the NYPD are on full alert.
No doubt Yankee Stadium is all covered up and chances are that the inclement weather might be out of the area in time for first pitch on Tuesday afternoon. If not they might delay that first pitch until Tuesday evening. Have to check with Commissioner Manfred on that one. No doubt the two Commissioners are in contact with each other.

The Phillies are headed to Atlanta for the playoffs. They beat Tampa Bay today.
And it looks like Houston will be headed to the playoffs as well.
Arenado will be the NL Comeback Player of the Year. I predicted this six months ago.
The Padres held on and beat Arizona last night 10-7.
That means the Cubs go to San Diego for the three game wild card series.
Phillies and DBacks still up in the air.
A win by Philadelphia today and they go to Atlanta.
Losses by both Philadelphia and Arizona and the Phillies go to Atlanta.
A loss by Philadelphia and a win by Arizona and the DBacks go to Atlanta.
Burleson just jacked another big dong. His 26th of the year. RBI #116.
Can he hang on and win the RBI title?
Hopefully this is the last hurrah for Gorman.
It’s been what, 4-5 years for him and he’s not really done anything except strikeout.
8-4 Brewers the final.
DBacks pounding the Padres.
Doyers and Skubal win 2-0 over the Giants.
Phillies lost again.
I just don’t want the Cubs to have home field advantage in the wild card round.
Well, on a good note……
Front Row Amy is in attendance at tonight’s Cards/Brewers game from County Stadium.
That always makes for a good game.
The Cubs are reeling.
They lost a DH today to the Red Sox at Fenway. 4-3 and 2-0.
I guess they played a DH today because of the Nor’Easter about to hit the New England area.
Looks like they will be on the road for the wild card series.
My condolences on the loss of your dad ATM.
And I didn’t realize that Arizona still has something to play for tonight in San Diego. They are actually still alive in the wild card.
I wonder if Pugs will be going to any of these games at Miller Park?
If he does I bet he will be right behind home plate next to Front Row Amy!
And today is the last CCFF of the 2026 season.
Cardinals Catfish Fiddlers Friday.
I will be enjoying some out at the Amish restaurant by the lake just north of town.
From a meteorological standpoint there is currently nothing in the greater metro Pittsburgh area. There is, however, a big pile of green stuff that is just south of Pittsburgh. Hard to tell whether or not this will impact tonight’s titanic clash or not.
Stay tuned…….
The Cubs did indeed go on to lose last night. 8-2 Miami the final in 12 innings at Wrigley.
And the Doyers pounded the Padres. 7-0 your final at Doyer Stadium.
The Phillies, Padres, and Cubs are all now tied with identical 87-70 records.
Bad news is that the Cubs own the tiebreaker over both the Phillies and Padres.
On a good note……
The Phillies won tonight. 6-4 Philadelphia over the Brewers at Veteran’s Stadium.
Cubs currently trail the Marlins. 2-0 Miami in the 6th at Wrigley.
Padres and Doyers coming up later tonight from Chavez Ravine.
FYI here,
According to the Doppler Radar there is alot of green stuff in and around the Pittsburgh area. No way at this point to tell if these areas of precipitation will affect the game tonight or not.I do not believe this is the initial wave of green stuff from the upcoming N’orEaster forecast for the northeast this week.
Just read where a really strong N’orEaster is about to hit the Northeast later in the week. That could impact the Cubs and Red Sox game at Boston. They may have to move that series to some other city.
Din-din today (Monday) is a couple of bakes potatoes, Allen’s Italian Green Beans, an ice cold slushy Mt. Dew, and a big bowl of Turkey Hill Vanilla Bean ice cream.
Not much action today. I suppose me and Whitey Herdog will be on the couch late tonight to tune in to the Twins and Giants game from San Francisco.

Yeah Pugs, and phooey that Jasper lost!
I didn’t go because of all the rain and storms in the area. I guess I missed a good game.
Padres on the verge of beating Miami. 6-2 in the 8th San Diego.
If the Padres hang on there will be a three way tie for the wild card with the Cubs and Phillies.
On a good note the Reds down the Cubs 6-4 at Riverfront Stadium.
On a bade note the Mets lead the Phillies 6-3 in the top of the 8th at Shea Stadium.
Weather wise the greater metropolitan St. Louis area looks dry for this one.
But here in SW Indiana we have had a lot of rain in the last 90 minutes or so. My gauge says two inches and it is still raining. And according to the Doppler Radar we might be getting more.
Going to jump in the tub and me and Whitey Herdog are going to start the evening with the Cubs and Reds from Riverfront Stadium.
