Record: 11-15. Pace: 69-93.
Change on last year: -1
With the four-game series tied at 1, a win today could put us in position to win a 4-game series, which is always a good thing. On the other hand, a loss today would not make this series a loss because of the extra game. Oh, the wonderful world of four-game series!
