Today’s two games, because they’re both Game 5s in their respective series, decide which teams will move on to compete for the American League pennant. Game 1, starting at 4 p.m. ET, has the Toronto Blue Jays against the Texas Rangers. The Blue Jays fought back in this best-of-five series after the Rangers took the first two games, and now have home-field advantage, and the momentum, for this decisive fifth game. Then, at 8 p.m. ET, it’s the Houston Astros vs. the Kansas City Royals. These teams have traded wins to this point, and if that pattern continues, Houston will win tonight – but the Royals mounted an amazing comeback in Game 4, scoring five runs in the eighth inning to take a 7-6 lead in a game the Royals eventually won 9-6. That momentum may well carry over into tonight’s do-or-die Game 5.
