ALDS Game 1: Texas Rangers vs. Tampa Bay Rays

About

Rejoice, Ranger fans: playoff baseball has returned to Arlington. After charging through the last month of the season (and barely holding off the Tigers for home-field advantage), the Rangers are set to reignite the rivalry they started with the Rays during last year's ALDS. C.J. Wilson gets the ball in Game 1 after logging his second-straight 200-inning season as a starter. Tampa has chosen Matt Moore to pitch, who has nine major-league innings in his career. So, advantage Rangers, right? Don't be so sure. In Moore's only ML start, he shut down the Yankees for five innings to keep the Rays clinging to their playoff dreams. He's been called the best pitching prospect since Stephen Strasburg. He's got caterpillars for eyebrows. What's not to like?

First pitch is at 4:07.
