Topps Now: October 11, 2021

These things are going to be a little out of order from this point on.  It took some sellers a long time to get stuff to me.  Others were very fast.  Hence why we have cards of the last game of the ALDS well before even the Wild Card Game.

October 11, 2021

Game 4 of the ALDS proved to be the deciding game.  Boston sent Eduardo Rodriguez to the mound, and he was good enough, pitching five innings and giving up just two runs.  The bullpen blew it though.  Garrett Whitlock ended up pitching the final two innings and eventually got the win.  Rafael Devers, who was terrific in the postseason, went 3-4 and hit a three-run home run in the third inning.  Enrique Hernandez, who was also terrific in the postseason, eventually won the game on a sacrifice fly in the ninth inning, driving in Danny Santana.  It was quite the ending to a surprising series.  Boston was not expected to take out the Rays.
