BS this is as close to a code red, must win, trap WS the Braves will be in. You don't want a replay of 1998 do you?

In all seriousness I was listening to Loud Outs on Monday and they were talking about in a 3 and 5 game series there is some randomness involved but the longer series the better team wins 90% of the time. At the beginning of the 20th century they used to play 9 game series and went to 7 because there was rarely an upset. (I am curious how much gambling played a role in that).
