October 02, 2015
Pittsburgh 6, Cincinnati 4

Cleveland 8, Boston 2
It's been a long road back for Josh Tomlin, but it is been worth the journey.

Atlanta 4, St. Louis 0
Julio Teheran finished up his season pitching like the Atlanta Braves hoped he would have all year.

Likely needing a sweep to keep their season alive, the Minnesota Twins' postseason hopes took a crippling blow Friday against the Kansas City Royals.
