Berkeley Lines: 11 I hear that the Tigers have already been given a magic number. It was 51 a few days ago, so it must be below 50 by now. This is the earliest I've ever seen anyone talk about magic numbers. Connected with this, I don't have my record book available, so perhaps someone could tell me the earliest date a team has clinched the pennant (both by game number and calendar date). Also, what is the widest margin by which a team has won a pennant? Wayne Citrin (ucbvax!citrin)
