• ALDS Game 3 - With 12-2 and 7-4 wins in the first two games of the Rays and Red Sox' five-game series, Boston took a commanding lead in the battle between AL East division rivals. Can Tampa Bay avoid elimination tonight with the series changing venues from Fenway Park to Tropicana Field. Alex Cobb, who threw 6 2/3 scoreless vs Cleveland in the Rays' AL Wild Card win, goes again tonight. Can he help keep hope alive in Tampa Bay with a win tonight? 6:00 PM EDT from Florida...
