The week ended with a Mike Wacha dud<\/a> on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n

But the other 6 days?<\/p>\n

They transformed the 2017 season from an undramatic slog into a 5 week sprint for a division title.<\/p>\n

44 games to go for the @Cardinals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

22 of them against the @Cubs<\/a>, @Brewers<\/a> and @Pirates<\/a>.<\/p>\n
