Every team has situations that cause their fans to ponder “woulda, shoulda, coulda” scenarios, and every team has luck enter the equation one way or the other…some good, some bad. “Luck is the residue of design” is a favorite quote cited by noted sportsman Branch Rickey, who had more to say on the subject.
