You offered this game up as a sacrifice. You, the person reading this, offered this game up. It was October 14, 2014, A.J. Pierzynski came up against Santiago Casilla in the ninth inning of a tie game in the National League Championship Series, and time stopped.

The smell of sulphur stung your nostrils. Smoke billowed from the hallway. Someone with glowing eyes appeared, and he showed you the future. Pierzynski was going to hit a homer to win the game, and this would propel the Cardinals to a series win. You wept. You fell to the floor and wept.

"Is there no justice?", you screamed. "Is this our fate?"

The man with glowing eyes smirked and offered you a proposition. If you would sacrifice a game to Pierzynski the following season, and if that game became the worst loss of the regular season, he would consider sparing the Giants in that game. You grabbed him by his black robes and begged, desperate. You accepted. He laughed.

Pierzynski missed his pitch on that day.

The man granted your wish, threw his head back, and laughed and laughed and laughed.

"One day," he gurgled. "you will pay dearly for your shortsightedness. You just doomed yourself to a really bad regular season loss."

Then he saw you whistling around the house the next day and realized that he didn't ask for nearly enough in exchange. He knew he just gave up the Francisco Liriano/Joe Nathan of dark baseball deals.

He was fired by the baseball gods two weeks later.
