What a great day for baseball yesterday was! Boston had a bye today (lucky them and lucky Beckett), the Rays and Evan Longoria made franchise history, and the NLDS races are starting to look a bit more one-sided.
We start in Philadelphia with the Brew Crew putting its faith in C.C. Sabathia to even out the series. What happened instead was a Shane Victorino grand slam that kept the Phillies up above the Brewers for a 5-2 finish.
The Cubs continue to prove that they cannot break the curse as they had an error riddled second inning allowing the Dodgers to post FIVE RUNS and eventually come to a 10-3 victory. Pathetic.
Best story of the night: Evan Longoria hits two homeruns in his first two at bats, the first rookie to ever do that in the postseason and the second ballplayer to do it in general. The Rays continue their dream with their first ever postseason victory at 6-4.
Red Sox get the bye and it’s looking like Josh Beckett will be ready for his Game 3 pitching match against the Angels.
