IST Rays-White Sox

I guess the Rays were the only active franchise never to be in the MLB playoffs ... until now. James Shields vs Javier Vazquez get the game 1 starts as the ChiSox were forced to fight all the way to the end (and beyond) and are starting a 14 game loser on account of it while the Rays rested up and are starting their titular ace. Rays lead 4-3 as they bat in the 5th Carl Crawford is back on the Rays' roster and in today's lineup Closer Troy Percival is not, but last year's #1 overall draft pick David Price (LHP) is on instead.

This Kazmir guy got some nasty stuff at times today. Anyone know anything about him?

Can't say I have watched the Rays much but they have some live arms coming out of that bullpen , guys I never heard of.

Congrats Rays! White Sox gave it a nice effort but the better team won.
