It is a fine, brilliant fall day here, and also happens to be Canadian Thanksgiving, so I’m going to keep my intro short and sweet. We saw some nail-biting baseball played on Friday evening as the Rays became the final team to win their way into the Championship series, securing a slot opposite the Houston Astros for this week’s series.
That series kicked off yesterday with the Rays taking the first win in the best-of-seven series. Meanwhile the Braves and Dodgers will face off in Houston (how weird is that, with the Astros playing in San Diego?) as the NLCS gets under way.
