Oscar Gonzalez propels Guardians past Rays in the 15th

Cleveland Guardians beat Tampa Bay Rays 1-0 in the Wild Card Game. Oscar Gonzalez hit a leadoff home run in 15th inning. The game was the longest scoreless postseason game in major league history. Cleveland will play the New York Yankees in a best-of-five Division Series. The team won the AL Central going away and swept the more experienced Rays. Tampa had seven straight losses and hit .115 in this season. It was its fourth straight postseason appearance. They will take on the Yankees on Tuesday. There were 17 players to make their debut for the Guardians this year.

Francona rides a scooter to and from the ballpark each day. He was stopped by a woman on his way back to his apartment after Friday's win. He enjoys zipping around the city without constraint or concern.

Oscar Gonzalez broke his belt while sliding headfirst into second base on a steal attempt in the seventh inning. He borrowed first-base coach Sandy Alomar Jr.’s belt before play resumed.

Ramírez is one of baseball's most dangerous and disciplined hitters. Cash worked in Cleveland's organization and remembers Ramírez as an upcoming shortstop prospect with little power. Ramirez is now a perennial All-Star and MVP candidate.
