Aaron Ashby is putting together arguably the greatest postseason performance by any reliever:
7 games
14 innings
14 strikeouts
0 runs
4 hits
3 walks
From Travis Feldhaus of ESPN research: The record for scoreless relief in any postseason was set by Goose Gossage in 1981, when he had 14 1/3 innings, zero runs allowed.

Given Logan Henderson's problem throwing to first base in his last start against the Dodgers, it'd be a shock if the Rays -- who bunt more than anybody -- don't test Henderson's throwing with a bunt or two.
One of the great mysteries left to history: Why the Yankees didn't attempt a bunt against Curt Schilling in the bloody sock game in the 2004 ALCS.
