Game 1:

Game 2:

A legendary game for Junior Caminero, who homered three times including a 2-run walk-off shot in the bottom of the 9th. Since the box above gave the feat short shrift, here's the sidebar story:

Game 3:

More late walk-off drama as once again the Rays took it in the bottom of the 9th on a longball, this time a DeLuca grand slam, and it could have been a sweep had the pen not melted down in the opener. And St. Louis' Dairon Blanco had perhaps the worst game at the plate anyone's had in recent memory. Not only was he 0-5 with 5 strikeouts but he left 8 runners on base, twice whiffing with the bases loaded later in the game with the Cards having a chance to add to their slender lead.

Players of the Week:

AL: Rowdy Tellez (SEA), 8-12, 4 HR, 7 RBI (3 of the HR came in one game)
NL: Manny Machado (SD), 16-26, 2 HR, 6 RBI (including a 6-hit game)

MLB News: Philly's Jesus Luzardo pitched a no-hitter against Washington, walking 3 and fanning 10 on 109 pitches. Meanwhile LA's Mookie Betts his 300th career homer and Padres starter Dylan Cease inked a 5/133 extension with the club.
