Ie-They play their best game of the year and the good team has an off day/gets lots of bad hops/bad calls. As you get deeper in the playoffs, the bad teams are out and only good teams remain. The good teams know they are good, so they dont want their season to end in one loss. In baseball, anything can happen and you dont want one bad hop or call or play to determine your playoff fate. In a 3 game series, most of the time the better TEAM wins. In addition, this site is dead for baseball. There is a much better site out there that devotes itself to texas high school baseball. They have tons of info on there.
