MLB magic numbers, schedules: Dodgers clinch NL West; Rays, Orioles wrap up playoff spots (9/18/23)
There was no drama this year in the National League West. The Dodgers were in first place for good by July 14, they had a double-digit lead by Aug. 16 and they wrapped up another division crown with two weeks to go.
The Dodgers clinched for the second year in a row and 10th time in 11 seasons Sunday with a 6-1 win in Seattle that completed a weekend sweep of the contending Mariners.
Two other clubs clinched playoff spots on Sunday, the Orioles and Rays.
There were a bunch of changes in the wild-card standings in both leagues on Sunday.
In the NL, the Diamondbacks and Marlins moved into playoff spots while the Cubs and Reds dropped out.
In the AL, the Blue Jays moved from the third spot to second by beating the Red Sox to sweep a weekend series in Toronto. The Rangers dropped from the second position to third with another loss in Cleveland, their third in three days.
Texas stayed in a playoff spot only because the Mariners also had a winless weekend playing the Dodgers.
Elsewhere on Sunday …
-- The Orioles are back in the driver’s seat in the AL East after beating the second-place Rays 5-4 in 11 innings to gain a split in a four-game series at Oriole Park. Baltimore is up two games on Tampa Bay and holds the tiebreaker because it won the season series.
-- The Marlins climbed into a playoff spot by sweeping the NL East-champion Braves in Miami. They blew out Atlanta in the series finale, winning 16-2.
-- The Twins blanked the White Sox 4-0 in Chicago to stay seven games up on the second-place Guardians. Both teams have 10 games to play.

Reviews for "Chasing Shadows: Investigating the Dreadbear Curse in FNAF Help Wanted"
1. Amy - ★☆☆☆☆
I found the "Fnav help wanted curse of dreadbear" to be extremely disappointing. The graphics were mediocre at best, and the gameplay was repetitive and boring. I didn't feel any sense of dread or fear while playing, it was just tediously going through the motions. The new characters introduced in this DLC also completely lacked creativity and were not scary in the slightest. Overall, I feel like this expansion was a cash-grab with little effort put into it.
2. Mark - ★★☆☆☆
I was honestly expecting more from "Fnav help wanted curse of dreadbear". The controls were clunky and frustrating, making it difficult to fully enjoy the game. The puzzles were too easy and didn't offer any real challenge. The addition of the dreadbear character felt forced and unnecessary, lacking the eerie atmosphere that made the original game enjoyable. It's disappointing to see a once-promising game series take a downward turn with lackluster DLC like this.
3. Sarah - ★★☆☆☆
I have to say, "Fnav help wanted curse of dreadbear" didn't live up to my expectations. The jump scares were predictable and became less and less effective as the game progressed. The story was thin and poorly developed, leaving me feeling detached from the experience. The VR aspect was also underwhelming, as it didn't add much to the gameplay and felt more like a gimmick. Overall, I was left feeling unsatisfied and wishing for a more engaging and terrifying experience.
