Major League Baseball- Post 5

     This week has been filled with surprises and upsets that has left the nation shocked. First the Cubs fly the W all the way to the National League Championship. The Jays fought there way all the way into the American League Championship. While the Royals won the last two of the series to claim there spot in the American League Championship. And the Dodgers and Mets deuce it out in game five to claim there spot to face the red hot Cubs.
     The Cubs shocked the baseball community when they beat the only team in baseball with 100 wins under their belt- the Cardinals. The cubs take over the NLDS with a four game win over the Cardinals, which made the Cubs fans come out of there basements wearing their Cubs hat that has a cover of dust on it, due to it not being warn in years. The Cubs will play the winner of the Dodgers and Mets, both of which will not be easy.
     The Blue Jays and Rangers had the most exciting inning of baseball that has ever been played. Fans going crazy throwing beer cans on the field, two fights in one inning, and bat flips that goes 15 feet. Lets examine this a bit closer, there was a play that was controversial that the umpires didn't know what to do, and the fans went nuts. Tensions were so high after that, the benches cleared twice in one inning. And Jose Bautista cranking a massive home run in the same inning, and doing a beautiful bat flip that goes 15 feet. The Blue Jays came back from a small deficit against the Rangers, and won the series.
     The Royals playing against the Astros has been a back and forth series since the beginning. The Royals had been struggling hitting the whole series. While down by two runs, the Royals got into a rally and won 7-2. They are going to the ALCS for the second year in a two years.
     The Royals will play the Blue Jays to play for the American League Championship. While the Cubs will play the winner of the Mets/Dodgers. It'll be a wild ride, sit back, watch, and enjoy.
