Former Red Sox centerfielder Jacoby Ellsbury was outstanding in his first World Series as a rookie. In the sweep over the Rockies, Ellsbury notched seven hits, four runs and three RBIs. His best performance came in Game 5, when he went 4-for-5 with three doubles and two RBIs.

Mark Lemke’s two-out single in the 12th inning gives the Braves a 5-4 win over the Twins in Game 3 of the World Series. Leaked had made an error in the top half of the inning. The game lasted four hours and four minutes and was the first World Series

The Braves won just 88 regular season games, but remember that they had to play a huge chunk of the season without Ronald Acuna Jr. Acuna, in just 82 games, put up 3.5 wins above replacement while batting .283/.394/.596 with 24 home runs, 17 steals and 44 extra-base hits overall. Not having a full season of that guy will bring any team’s wins down.
