NEW YORK (AP) — run club Thursday night Guillermo Heredia Jersey , connecting for a two-run drive in the third inning against the Detroit Tigers.Stanton ended a 10-game homerless drought and became the 147th player to reach the mark, 11 of them active. He did it in 1,119 games, making him the fifth-fastest to hit the milestone behind Ralph Kiner, Ryan Howard, Juan Gonzalez and Alex Rodriguez.At 28, Stanton was the ninth-youngest player to hit 300. He hit his 33rd homer for New York. He led the majors with 59 last year and was the NL MVP before Miami traded him to the Yankees.Stanton went the opposite way for a drive into the right field seats on a 3-1 pitch from left-hander Francisco Liriano.Stanton watched the path of the ball for a couple seconds before flipping his bat aside with a small smile on his face. After rounding the bases and receiving a warm ovation from his teammates, he emerged from the dugout and doffed his helmet to the fans offering a standing ovation.The home run continued a gradual feeling-out process between the fans and Stanton, whose slumps have made him the occasional target for boos during his first season with the Yankees. He’s had three dry spells of 10 or more games without a home run this year. The Boston Red Sox have powered their way through the playoffs, and now they wait to find out who they will play in the 2018 World Series.The team swept three games in Houston to win the American League Championship Series in five games, using clutch power hitting from ALCS Most Valuable Player Jackie Bradley Jr., Rafael Devers and J.D. Martinez to defeat the defending World Series champion Houston Astros.The Sox also received brilliant outfield defense from Bradley http://www.marinersfanproshop.com/authentic-ben-gamel-jersey , Mookie Betts and Andrew Benintendi, along with excellent pitching from Nathan Eovaldi, Rick Porcello and David Price to advance.Neither top starter Chris Sale nor ace closer Craig Kimbrel were at their best, but the Red Sox were still able to vanquish their respected opponents.

The Dodgers lead the National League Championship Series 3-2 heading into Friday's sixth game. If the Dodgers can win either Friday or Saturday, they will get back to the World Series for the second year in a row.However, if the Brewers win Games 6 and 7, they will represent the National League in the World Series for the first time in team history. The Brewers went to the World Series in 1982 as the American League champions but switched leagues after the 1997 season.The Brewers lost their only World Series appearance in seven games to the St. Louis Cardinals in 1982. The Dodgers lost to the Astros in seven games last year.The Red Sox have won their three most recent World Series appearances in 2004, 2007 and 2013. NLCS Game 6When:Friday, Oct. 19, at 8:39 p.m. ETWhere:Miller Park in MilwaukeeTV:FS1Live Stream:Fox Sports GoThe Dodgers are giving Hyun-Jin Ryu the ball in Game 6, while the Brewers have designated Wade Miley as their starter.This may sound familiar since Miley opened Game 5 in Los Angeles for the Brew Crew, but manager Craig Counsell removed him after one batter.That bit of subterfuge did not work for the Brewers since they lost the game and find themselves on the brink of elimination. However, Miley was effective in Game 2 of the series as he pitched 5.2 innings and allowed two hits.Ryu also started in Game 2, giving up two runs and six hit in 4.1 innings. He had been much better against the Atlanta Braves in the NLDS.The Brewers struggled to hit in their three games in Los Angeles http://www.marinersfanproshop.com/authentic-mitch-haniger-jersey , and they hope to get the big bats of Christian Yelich, Jesus Aguilar and Travis Shaw going. Those three combined for 103 home runs during the regular season.The Dodgers are looking for production from Justin Turner, Manny Machado and Cody Bellinger. Turner has proved to be one ofthe sport's best postseason hitters, and he has a career slash line of .313/.433/.531 with seven home runs and 30 runs batted in.Game 6 of the NLCS is considered dead even by the handicappers. Both the Dodgers and Brewers are minus-110 in the game, per OddsShark. This means that a gambler would have to risk $110 on either team to win $100.The Dodgers are minus-400 to win the National League pennant while the Brewers are plus-300. The Red Sox are minus-150 to win the World Series, while the Dodgers are plus-190 and the Brewers are plus-650 to land the championship. PredictionsThe Brewers should benefit from their return to Miller Park and their supportive fans. Game 6 in Milwaukee should be close, but look for Yelich or Shaw to come through with the big hits that force a seventh game.We see the Brewers surviving that finale as the Dodgers' all-or-nothing approach at the plate is likely to fail. Machado or Turner could hit solo home runs, but they will fall short of matching Milwaukee's production.That will set the stage for a Boston-Milwaukee World Series. Earlier in the postseason, the Brewers looked like they were on a magical run, but that may be over.Boston is the better team and will beat the Brewers in six games.World Series tickets can be purchased throughStubHub.NLCS tickets can be purchased through StubHub.
