The Boston Red Sox pulled off a late inning thriller against the Anaheim Angels giving them a ticket to their fourth ALDS since 2003. The Sox held a two-run lead in the eighth, but after key mistakes the Angels took advantage and tied the game at two. The Sox came to bat in the 9th and Jason Bay, who was traded for disgruntled player Manny Ramirez, scored on a single by Jed Lowrie.
In other baseball news, the Tampa Bay Rays have punched a ticket to their first ALDS in club history. It's been a tremendous year for the Rays, led by Dominican Carlos Pena. Last year the Rays were the worst team in baseball and this year posted the best record in the AL. In the National League the Los Angeles Dodgers quickly disposed of the Chicago Cubs in a 3-0 sweep, keeping the curse of the Billy Goat alive while the Philadelphia Phillies sent the Brewers on an early vacation. Baseball playoffs resume on Thursday.
