Ryan on the MLB Playoffs

The playoffs are here!

One of the most depressing and crushing upsets in Boston history occured as well. The Red Sox gave up what was at one time a 8.5 games lead but came tumbling down when the Red Sox lost to the Baltimore Orioles, a team that people have never really looked at as a playoff contending team since the end of Cal Ripkin knocked the slumping Red Sox out of the playoffs.

Of course, people are disappointed in the Red Sox, but people are getting offended by how the Orioles celebrated after the game. Honestly, if you beat a team like the Boston Red Sox with a team like the Orioles you would celebrate too! 

We the Texas Rangers beat the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in four games. Last year AL MVP outfielder, Josh Hamilton, celebrated but not with the traditional wine but with ginger ale. It is his lifetime commitment to never drink or do drugs ever again. Hamilton left the stadium and went back to his hotel room when Ian Kinsler, Micheal Young, and Elvis Andrus with bottles of ginger ale and celebrated that way.

Will Hamilton and the Rangers celebrate with ginger ale and a World Series championship?
