October 16, 2030: ALCS Game 3

A big win...



Mitsuyoshi Arakawa had the game of his life and the bullpen got the job done for a change as the Rays got by the Jays 3-2 in the third one-run affair in as many games this series to go up 2-1. Of course the big hit was Arakawa's solo homer in the 9th to break a 2-2 tie but he figured in both Rays runs before that with an RBI double 2nd and then singling, stealing second and scoring on a sac fly in the 5th. And the pen did its job including a first appearance from Ryan Okuda this postseason. Although the box score shows Aldry Acosta charged with a blown save it really wasn't his fault as Walt Khattak put men on second and third with nobody out and Acosta gave up a sac fly to Vlad Jr. and got out of the inning without further damage. The highly inconsistent Taj Bradley will take the mound for Game 4 tomorrow.
