Quote: You Can’t Sulk, We have to Win
The Mets play the Marlins today at 1 pm, while the Brewers take on the Cubs in Milwaukee at 4 pm.
The Phillies face the Nationals in DC at 4 pm.
The Brewers need to win, coupled with a loss from the Mets, to win the NL Wild Card today.
On the other hand, the Mets need a win to at least guarantee that their season continues in to tomorrow, regardless of what the Brewers do tonight.
The Phillies need just one win, either today or tomorrow, regardless of what the Mets do, to win their second-consecutive NL East Division Championship.
David Wright, on the next two games:
“It comes down to two must wins for us down the stretch and we have to get the job done…We had the opportunities, we controlled our own destiny and now we don’t, we need some help. You can’t sulk on what could’ve been, you have to focus on these next two games, leave it all and hope for two wins…We have to win these two games…We dug ourself a hole, and now it’s up to us to dig ourself out of it.”
This is it, folks. We’ve gone through six months of drama, six months of ups and downs and stress and excitement and belief and frustration, and now we get two more days of it, two more days to see how this all plays out.
In other words, the time for criticism is over, the time for would’ve, could’ve, should’ve is over, it’s all about right now, and all about a win.
Good luck, gentlemen. I’ll see you on the other side.
