Either team losing in a spectacularly nailbiting fashion would please me immensely. Let the selfpity continue.

Looks like you got your wish, in spades! Both teams were 5 outs away from advancing to the World Series. Both teams had their staff ace on the mound, with a 3-run lead. If you had written a novel about a baseball postseason like this one, it would go straight to the fantasy section. Or, more likely, it would never get published, with the most commonly cited reason being "Too contrived, too unrealistic."
