Friday the St. Luis Cardinals beat the LA Dodgers with a whopping 9-0 game to clinch the NLCS and pave their way to the 2013 World Series. The Los Angeles Dodgers had their best pitcher on the mound, Clayton Kershaw, but it didn’t seem to matter as the Cardinals ran away with the game. Kershaw was taken out in the 5th inning but it wasn’t enough to save the Dodgers. The Cardinals are headed to the World Series for the fourth time in this last decade.
Saturday night the Boston Red Sox sealed the deal and beat the Detroit Tigers in game 6 of the ALCS securing their place in the World Series. It was a dramatic ending with a nail biting game that had Sox fans everywhere wondering if they could pull it off. They had several chances to score and kept leaving men on base. Then in the 7th inning Red Sox outfielder Shane Victorino came to the plate and launched a three run home run into the Green Monster seats. The final score Red Sox 5, Detroit Tigers 2.
The Series will start in Boston at Fenway Park on Wednesday October 23 at 8:07pm
