Ken Burns’ Baseball anthology went into extra innings last night when the long awaited “Tenth Inning” was broadcast on PBS.

The champagne was flowing last night as the Yankees finally made the inevitable a reality by clinching at least a wild card spot with a 6-1 victory over the Blue Jays.

The Tampa Bay Rays entered last night’s action needing just one win to clinch a playoff spot for only the second time in franchise history.
