Devillier faced a runner on third with no outs in the third but allowed no runs to cross home plate. Jacob Flores advanced to third on an error and a balk. However, Devillier recorded a pair of strikeouts and a groundout to keep the ‘Roos off the board.

Crowder pushed the lead back to two with his second sacrifice fly of the season in the fourth.

​Adam Morgan came on in the 6th in relief of Eickhoff and cruised through the inning. However, the 7th inning was a different story. The Braves loaded the bases with no outs and then pushed a run across on an Inciarte one-out single. Joely Rodriguez then relieved Morgan and, after getting an out, gave up a two-run double to Markakis down the third base line that barely tipped the outreached glove of Maikel Franco. Rodriguez then walked Matt Adams to make the score 8-0 Atlanta. All three runs were charged to Morgan.

Strong performances in recent games from the big money players, Adrian Beltre (and his thumb), Prince Fielder (and his veggies), Shin-Soo Choo and his diary as well as Elvis Andrus and his robo-leg kick have stirred the pot that is Postseason aspirations for the Rangers. Recently the team acquired a few new faces, Will Venable from San Diego and welcomes back Mike Napoli from Boston.

Klien was only able to last 1/3 of an inning, walking two and giving up one hit and two earned runs. Banister immediately turned to Sam Freeman, who looked to be a little gassed after being used the past two days. Freeman went just a 1/3 of an inning as well, walking two and striking out one. Spencer Patton then came in and put out the fire, pitching 1 1/3 solid innings, striking out two and not allowing a single hit. Banister then went to newly acquired Jake Diekman who is looking more and more like an impact player for the Rangers, as he came out of the pen and pitched a scoreless inning. With Shawn Tolleson working the past two nights he was unavailable, but Sam Dyson came in and shut the door for the

Finally the game started and we played well and so did they. The game was close the whole way threw and we came to the final inning tying them. We were the home team so we got to bat last. Two of the three outs

The Rangers looked to have this thing locked up right from the get go, but Colby Lewis would always found a way to make things interesting. The Rangers put up a lethal six spot in the first inning, enough for most to think game over. But to the Astros credit, and lack of execution by Colby, that wasn't the case last night. You hear it time and time again, when you hang a crooked number on the scoreboard it is imperative that the pitcher goes out there and crushes the opposing teams spirits with a zero spot the next half inning. On Monday night, Colby Lewis did the

Dodgers won by 3-1, all Los Angeles fans got excited, think that Dodgers will get the world series. However, in game 2 and 3 Houston made good adjustment and won booth. Dodgers felt that would not be that easy. And they come back and won the game 4. So was tie series and they were heading to game 5. Game 5 was the import game because however that wins that game would need to win one more game, and the pressure in game 6 will go to the time that lost because if they lost again was over. So, in the game 5 was the most intense game that I ever see. Dodgers was losing by 3 run on the top of 9th inning, last chance to dodgers. And Puig hit a 2 runs homer with one out. And on 2 outs runner at 3rd Taylor hit a base hit and they tied. Houston could not score in the bottom 9th, so the game went to the extra innings. Dodgers could score so was the Houston turn. Was 2 outs runner at 2nd and 1st and Bregman at the plate. He hit a base hit at the left field and the runner at 2nd score, game over. Was a great game because in total were 7 home runs, the most number of homer in the world series game ever. Game 6 dodgers must win if not they were out, so they won by 3-1. Game 7, the last game, Houston start in front putting 5 runners in the first 2 inning, and Dodgers only score at the 6th. Game over 5-1 Houston.

The Tigers score three in the fourth on a sacrifice bunt for an RBI and Haynes’ two-RBI

Segura led things off with a single, setting the table for the D-backs to strike first and maybe end this thing before the rain had a chance. Chris Owings obliged, moving Segura to 2nd with a single of his own. After an excellent double steal, Goldy was in prime position to get the team on the board and he did, lining a hard grounder into deep shortstop. Espinosa had no shot at home plate, and threw onto first for the first out of the inning and a 1-0 D-backs lead. That was it however, as Castillo and Drury flew out and struck out respectively to strand Owings at 2nd. Still not a bad way to start the game.

The Cubs then won it in the twelfth inning on Jon Lester's suicide hit that scored Heyward, who opened the inning with a twofold. It was Sunday's second 12-inning amusement after Baltimore's 6-2 win over the Blue Jays.

“If I said no, I’d be lying to you, but at the same time I would say I wasn’t worried. I wasn’t worried because I knew the type of pitching and type of defense we were getting,” said Chris Olmstead, Columbus head coach. He knew that as a team we were missing opportunities to score and as a coach that can be frustrating. In the bottom of the seventh Sydney Schultz took the ball deep center and hit the top of the fence for a double, almost hitting a walk off homerun. BCLUW could not get anything going. They went three up three down almost every inning. In the eighth inning they had bases loaded with two outs. Grace Surma hit a grounder to the shortstop and getting out by a step to end the inning. The the top of the ninth with one out a batter for BCLUW hit a one out double. It was the first time a runner had reached 2nd base for BCLUW. However, a weak pop out and a grounder ended the inning.

The second inning we noticed a change in Brush. They were a lot more determined to beat us. They put up five runs at bat. It shook us up a little and we fell

The second half of the game proved to be a lot more challenging than the first half. It was like the other team woke up. They're hits were actually making it to the outfield, which meant I wasn't doing much on first base. At the end of the fourth inning, when the batter bunted the ball, it rolled right into our pitcher's glove. It seemed almost too
