Show notes

Rays starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow was tipping his pitches as the Astros get 4 runs in the first inning and cruise behind Gerrit Cole who went 8 innings, giving up 2 hits including a home run to Eric Sogard, as Houston wins 6-1 to advance to the ALCS.

The Lightning win in Toronto 7-3 as Brayden Point returns on a line with Stamkos and Kucherov that exploded and Rick Stroud is in London with a preview of the Bucs-Panthers game this Sunday.

Show notes

The Rays force Game 5 of the American League Division Series as they beat Justin Verlander and the Houston Astros 4-1 before another raucous crowd at Tropicana Field. Tommy Pham hit a home run in the 1st, part of a 3-run inning and the Rays would never trail. The defense shined as well as Ji-Man Choi made several good plays at 1st base, and the Rays nailed Jose Altuve at the plate on a perfect relay from Kevin Kiermaier to Willy Adames to Travis d'Arnaud in the 4th to keep the Astros off the board. The pitching kept Houston off balance tonight including using Blake Snell as the closer for the first time in his career.

Show notes

Kevin Kiermaier's 3-run home run in the 2nd blew the roof off the Trop in front of over 32,000 Rays fans and Charlie Morton allows only 1 run as Tampa Bay beats the Zack Greinke and the Astros 10-3. The Rays would hit 4 home runs in all including ones by Brandon Lowe, Ji-Man Choi and Willy Adames to start the party in Tropicana Field. Tuesday will be Diego Castillo vs. Justin Verlander and the Rays will try to even the series. Plus the Bucs got bad news as Alex Cappa broke his arm in Sunday's game and will miss 4-6 weeks and Demar Dotson is out this weekend too so the right side of the offensive line will be different as they travel to London to face the Panthers. Plus Kyle Trask was great in Florida's win over Auburn on Saturday as LSU is up next for the Gators.

Meanwhile Michael Thomas had 11 catches for 182 yards and a TD against the Bucs secondary which Bruce Arians called ‘soft’.
