October 11-12, 2039: ALDS Game 3 & NLDS Games 3-4

Coming through in the pinch again...



The Rays are one game away from the ALDS thanks to their bench as for the second straight game the difference came from a pinch-hitter. In Game 2 Frank Duron's 2-run pinch double was the difference and in the critical Game 3 Willis Ramirez was the hero, leading off a 3-3 game in the 9th with a pinch-infield single, stealing second, going to third on a groundout and scoring on Danny Rodriguez's sac fly. And this time Walt Kelly held firm in the 9th, getting the Alamos in order on only eight pitches. Tampa Bay will try to finish the series off behind Sergio Espinoza tomorrow.

Meanwhile...



Like a horror movie villain left for dead who springs back to life, the Astros aren't quite done yet.

In the NLDS yesterday:



and today:



So it'll be a classic Dodgers-Phillies matchup in the NLCS.
