Er... did the Tigers really beat the Cubs on "10/8/2005"?

Must be a coding error, there's an awful lot of WS games between different teams played in 2005. Either that, or MLB doesn't want to hurt anyone's selfesteem and everybody gets to play in the WS this year.

Sorry, it was 1 AM. Ignore the 2005s in the date column. Should have just been the month and day. I'll fix it later.
