The kid was alright...
After a terrible Game 1 performance rookie
Jessie McGee bounced back to keep the Rays in the game until the offense took over, and took over it did as Tampa Bay won ALDS Game Five 8-2 and set up an ALCS date with red-hot Baltimore, winners of 14 straight games.
Oneil Cruz, named ALCS MVP, had the big hit with a 3-run homer in the 6th to make it 5-1 Rays and
Christopher Morel, who also had a case for series MVP, put it away with a 3-run blast over the Monster in the 9th.
The Rays will have their 1-4 rotation set up with
Taj Bradley going in Game 1 at the Trop.
