And Away We Go

Batting 8th, Danny Valencia was 1-3 with 1 BB and 1 RBI against the Yankees. He drew a walk with the bases loaded in the 6th inning to tie the game at 4 apiece. And with his infield hit in the 8th inning, he represented the tying run (until a pinch runner took his place), but it wasn't enough. The Twins are down 0-1 in the ALDS.

Batting 6th, Ian Kinsler was 1-4 with 1 run scored against the Rays. He scored the 1st run of the postseason. The Rangers are ahead 1-0 in the ALDS. As expected, Scott Feldman was left off the Rangers' postseason roster.

Walking Kubel to get to Valencia was a totally stupid move. The Yankees are darn lucky that all he did was walk.

How do you leg out an infield hit and then need somebody to pinch run for you? Weird.
