The Los Angeles Dodgers are calling up Kyle Hurt, a RHP prospect with the highest strikeout rate in the minors this year, sources tell ESPN. Monster fastball, tons of swing-and-miss on secondaries and 145 Ks in 88.1 innings between AA and AAA. He'll work out of the bullpen.

The Boston Red Sox fired chief baseball officer Chaim Bloom.

Heston Kjerstad gets the call! The former No. 2 overall pick has been RAKING between the AA Chesapeake Baysox and the AAA Norfolk Tides this season, and will get his first big league action in the form of a September call-up. #Orioles #Baseball #MLB #Birdland

Ronald Acuña Jr. just stole his 70th base, lifted it out of the ground and thrust it into the air. Boss move. A 40/40 season is phenomenal. A 40/70 season is inconceivable. Forget the new rules. It's ridiculous. If he wins MVP -- and he's probably going to -- he'll deserve it.

Gabe Kapler is out as manager of the San Francisco Giants, sources tell ESPN.

FINAL: Rangers 11, Astros 4 The Texas Rangers are going to the World Series for the first time since 2011. And they got there by dismantling the defending champions in Game 7 of the ALCS. They will face the winner of Philadelphia and Arizona, who play NLCS Game 7 on Tuesday.

FINAL: Diamondbacks 4, Phillies 2 The Arizona Diamondbacks are going to the World Series after coming into Citizens Bank Park and punking Philadlephia twice. An incredible effort. Perhaps the most improbable World Series ever is coming. It's Texas vs. Arizona. Game 1 is Friday.

For the first time in franchise history, the Texas Texas Rangers are #WorldSeries Champions! #CHAMPS
