  2. Tampa Bay beat the Houston Astros 4-2 Saturday night in Game 7 of the ALCS to advance to the World Series. 
  3. #2 Alabama knocked off #3 Georgia 41-24 Saturday.

    The second-best thing to the Dodgers making it back to the World Series is the Houston Astros getting knocked off by Tampa Bay in the American League Championship Series. Good riddance to those cheaters.
