Around the MLB Playoffs: October 10 Edition

News and notes from around the playoffs:

Yesterday's action:

  • The threat of storms -- and the prospect of playing another stop-and-start game after Saturday's ALCS contest was twice interrupted by weather delays -- was enough to postpone Game 2 of the ALCS. Detroit and Texas will make up that game at 3:19 p.m. CDT today.
  • Milwaukee used a six-run fifth inning -- fueled by a two-run double from Ryan Braun and two-run homers from Prince Fielder and Yuni Betancourt -- to claim a 9-6 win over St. Louis in Game 1 of the NLCS. Our recap is here.

The division series standings ended up like this:

  • Detroit 3, New York 2.
  • Texas 3, Tampa 1.
  • Milwaukee 3, Arizona 2.
  • St. Louis 3, Philadelphia 2.
And the LCS standings read like this:
  • Texas 1, Detroit 0.
  • Milwaukee 1, St. Louis 0.
