The Tigers advanced Thursday to join the Red Sox, Dodgers and Cardinals in the field for Major League Baseball's 2013 League Championship Series. Here's a preview of the next round of the baseball playoffs in the National and American leagues:

The Rangers and Yankees play three in the Bronx Tuesday-Thursday.  New York comes off a four-game split with Tampa Bay.  Texas visits New York fresh off a three-game sweep of the Cardinals in St. Louis.  Here is a series preview.

Well Met fans the pain of watching Ike Davis flail away at breaking pitches has come to an end. For now. Davis was sent to the minor leagues by the Mest on Monday to hopefully find his hitting stroke again. Also sent back to the minors were relief pitcher Robert Carson and outfielder Mike Baxter...

No one will ever forget the postseason wins, the bulldog mentality, the cap set down just above the eyebrows as the cutter dives in on righties and away from lefties.  No one will forget saving the bacon in the Bronx time after time after time, nor will they forget outdueling John Smoltz in the 1996 World Series.

LeBron James (now), Sidney Crosby, Albert Pujols (while with the Cardinals), baseball's Giants as a team, Derek Jeter through the years, Mariano Rivera, Eli Manning, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Mark Messier, Wayne Gretzky, Michael Jordan, Henrik Lundqvist and plenty more.  You get the picture.  When these guys step-up, their teams win and advance.

April is over.  May is in.  The Red Sox had a heck of a month.  The Yankees went 16-10 to the surprise of some.  The Rangers and Tigers have proved already that they are most likely division winners.  The Braves' Upton brothers carried the load...

Lil Wayne showcased some of his musical talents with this rendition of “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” during Game 6 of the NLCS.

St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Matt Holliday showed some respect to San Francisco Giants infielder Marco Scutaro before Game 3 of the NLCS.

Washington Nationals right fielder Jayson Werth hit a walk-off home run against the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday night to conclude an epic 13-pitch at bat.

I love this new baseball playoff format. It is interesting to me how so many are complaining about how baseball shouldn't have a one game wild card and asking why the team with the better record is on the road for the first two games. First, the reason why the A's, Yankees, Reds, and Nationals are on the road even though they have better records than their opponents is the playoff format came out

The St. Louis Cardinals put together quite the bottom of the seventh inning in tonight’s game against the Chicago Cubs, scoring 12 runs in the frame. Prior to the inning, the game was scoreless, and Cardinals had only mustered five hits against the Cubs pitching staff...

Matt Holliday hit an absolute moon shot off of Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Ryan Dempster on Friday night.
