Three solo shots in the top of the fifth. All Darvish could do was shake his head. Go Jays!

The Nats and Red Sox are the only two teams I REALLY don't want to see win it.  Nats because they're a division rival and seeing Murph win a ring somewhere else would hurt, and Boston because, well, Boston fans have been spoiled enough the last 15 years.

I don't want to see the Giants or Cardinals because I'm quite sick of both, or the Braves because I still remember all the ass kissing they got on tv here back when they were actually good. They're the `local team' by default, but I've always seen more people wearing Reds gear than Braves around town, and Reds gear is harder to come by.. And I don't want to see the Yankees because....FUCK THE YANKEES! But I really would love to see the Cubs win it and lay the curse crap to rest. I want the Dodgers if not the Cubs because that's my parents' favorite team.

I'm a Cincinnati Reds fan, but I grew up watching the Cubs on cable because we didn't get Reds games here. So i have a soft spot for them, even if they're division rivals. (They weren't when i was younger.)

Well.....there IS a better chance of me enjoying this month as a SF Giants fan than a NY Giants one.

Poor Beltran will never win that ring.

That liner that Liriano took to the neck looked awful.

TRAVIS WOOD! HR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Isn't Baseball the best?

This game has been a case study in why the NL should never get a DH.

Bob Costas is so fucking annoying man

He went to high school about an hour and a half away from me.

Big win for the Cubs.  Now even if October Bumgarner does October Bumgarner things they'll still have 2 more chances to close it out.

FLY THE W

Jays complete the sweep. Rangers continue to be awesome April-September and forget they still have to show up in October.

They at least made it a bit more difficult for us tonight. I was a bit worried with Osuna's condition but he was able to hold out and both Donaldson and Martin were awesome in the clutch.

[The Buscher]

I was never sold on the Rangers being all that good despite their record.  They had a negative run differential on the year and won a crapload of 1-run games.  That's just not sustainable in the playoffs.

[Draevyn]

And Cleveland wins to set up the series with the Jays. I was hoping for them to take it over Boston but I can honestly say I haven't paid attention to Cleveland enough this year to really know what to expect with this series.

Bye Papi 

[The Buscher]

Seeya Boston!  Now you can get back to writing about how the world owes you another Super Bowl.

[Maxx]

Oh well, I knew relying on Clay Buchholz was doomed for failure.  Interesting post season thus far at least!
