Fall Ball

The MLB Postseason is in full gear. All of the series are very close and up for grabs. The defending World Series champions are up on the Nationals 2-1 after their crushing 8-0 win over Washington. The Nationals fans showed up early to Nationals Park. The Cards got to Edwin Jackson early. Jackson was charged with the loss while Chris Carpenter got the win for St. Louis. Carpenter was very efficient today in a friendly, but loud, environment. Perhaps the most exciting series has been between the Reds and Giants. The Reds took both games in San Francisco, but the Giants came back strong to tie the series up. They won 8-3 earlier today, and outlasted the Reds last night in 10 innings 2-1. In the AL, the Yankees and Orioles are tied up at one apiece with the series in NY. The Orioles have just taken the 1-0 lead on the Yanks with a Ryan Flaherty homer off Hiroki Kuroda. The Tigers are leading the A's 2-1 in the series. Coco Crisp made probably the best play of the Postseason by robbing Prince Fielder. It was a huge momentum shift in Tuesday night's game. If you missed the play, you can see it here.

This isn't the only amazing catch or play of October. That is why I am doing a Top 5 Postseason Plays at the end of the month. This play looks like it will make it along with Ichiro's play at the plate or Jon Jay's catch at the wall. You can now follow me on Twitter @MM8sports.
