Newly appointed Mariners General Manager Jerry Dipoto names Scott Servais, who was his understudy when he was GM of the Angels, as the team’s manager for 2016.
In a nail-biting Game 6 of the ALCS, the Royals defeat the Blue Jays, 4 – 3, to return to the World Series. After a 45-minute rain delay, Lorenzo Cain scores all the way from first base on a single by Eric Hosmer in the 8th for the winning run. Jose Bautista drives in all three Toronto runs with a pair of homers, but the Jays are undone by their inability to cash in runners in scoring position throughout the game. For the Royals, Ben Zobrist and Mike Moustakas, with the assistance of a fan, hit solo homers to give the Royals an early 2 – 0 lead.
