Rangers Advance to Divisional Series
Mark one up for the Texas Rangers.

In the crucial final game, they put away the Detroit Tigers 4-3 at Comerica Park to win the Wild Card Series, 4-3 and advance to the Divisional Series.

Although his team came up short, Detroit's Ryan Ludwick was named the series MVP, with many of the league media feeling the series would have been over much sooner if not for his contributions.

"Ludwick did a lot to keep Detroit in it, no doubt about that," said Rangers manager Rangers GM.

The Texas Rangers will play against the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in the next round. Tampa Bay won their series against the Arizona Diamondbacks 4 games to 3. The Divisional Series schedule will be announced after the Wild Card Series finishes.
