Lets play a one game playoff to force a one game playoff

At least the Cleveland Indians didn’t lose on Sunday to add to the already confusing AL wildcard playoff battle.
But after both the Tampa Bay Rays and Texas Rangers pulled off wins Sunday it did force the deciding one game tiebreaker game to decide who gets the 2nd wildcard spot.

Ron Washington has decided to stick to his guns (pun intended) and send left handed rookie Martin Perez to the hill to face the Rays.

Perez is 10-5 with a 3.55 ERA this season.

He will pitch well but expect the lack of a playoff atmosphere to come in to play.

Joe Maddon and the Rays will go with left hander David Price to face the Rangers.

Price is 9-8 with a 3.89 ERA.

Price has the experience factor going for him even though this game is going to be played in Texas.

Considering the Rays are 9-3 in Prices last 12 starts and they are 6-1 in their last 7 games on grass…

LEONARD SAYS GO WITH (981) TAMPA BAY RAYS FOR THE WIN ON MONDAY.

And by the way, the Rays are 8-2 on their last 10 games on Mondays!
