MLB.com: Trop notch: Rangers on cusp of ALCS return

The Rangers scored four runs in the top of the seventh inning Monday and are now one win away from advancing to the American League Championship Series after holding on to 4-3 victory over the Rays.

Mike Napoli, with the Rangers down, 1-0, in Game 3 of the AL Division Series, hit a two-run home run off of Rays starter David Price to put his team ahead, and Josh Hamilton later added a two-run single.

Colby Lewis earned the victory by allowing one hit—a home run to Desmond Jennings in the fourth—over six innings.

Great game by Colby.

The most shocking good performance of the playoffs until tomorrow.

I left to go visit my neighbor last night at 7:00 p.m. which was the top of the 7th, Tampa leading 1-0. I came back ~70 minutes later, and we'd made it all the way to the bottom of the 8th.

Tampa hits lefties better than righties, so we'll see how they do against Harrison today.
