Let's roll...
John Swanda had a mediocre regular season - especially by his lofty standards - but when the bright lights came on he responded, pitching 6 dominant innings and leading the Rays to a 5-0 win in Game 1 of their best-of-3 Wild Card series with Boston. Angel Rivera and Nelson Haro delivered big 2-run hits and now the Rays came advance to the ALDS against Toronto with one more win. Luis German will get the ball tomorrow to try and make that happen.
Elsewhere the NL Wild Card Round is over already:
Joey Gallo hit 2 homers in both games of the series to lead St. Louis to a date with Atlanta in the NLDS while the other one will feature the Phillies and Dodgers.
