San Francisco won three on the road to come back for the win, but how will they fare against the Champions? (http://ferrebeekeeper.files.wordpress.com)

Baseball is down to its final four, and all four had to march through five-game divisional series to get there. That is sure to leave all teams exhausted with little time to rest up and prepare, which will make things pretty interesting.

Trying to pick that thrilling divisional round was interesting as well, with no more than two out of five participants guessing any particular series winner correctly. The American league was great for some of us, helping create a widening gap between those with abundant points and those towards the bottom. The NL picks exacerbated the gap a little too, but there’s still plenty of time and points left in the following two rounds to catch up.

Be sure to check below for the complete results this round, and check back later in the afternoon for the LCS choices.
