Good morning afternoon, Athletics Nation!
The 2020 MLB postseason is heating back up. After both LCS matchups got off to lopsided starts, they’ve at least turned into competitions. Two teams could advance to the World Series today, but their opponents are each putting up a fight.
In the ALCS, the Houston Astros staved off elimination for another day with a second straight victory over the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 5. It was a bullpen game all around and it was tied entering the 9th, but supervillain Carlos Correa launched a walk-off solo homer to break the deadlock for a 4-3 win — an he supposedly called his shot before going to the plate.
