chance either glad good means rather record statistics
Those are good statistics either way. I'm glad we do have a good away record because that means we have a chance on the road, but we'd rather have home-field for the first round.
almost good
It was almost as good as you can get.
angry bats swinging

last opportunity
You want those last at-bats. That's why you want to be at home. You always want the last opportunity to score.
