Team I'm most surprised by is still the SF Giants. When this season started, I'd never have guessed they would reach the 20's, let alone #30 out of 30.

Today on MLB network they said that the Giants hadn't been this many games behind the Dodgers since 1913.

Who sounds like a character from Donnie Brasco or Reservoir Dogs.
