Could the ALCS/NLCS Match-ups be Known by Tomorrow? [J. Mark English]

In short...yes.

The Boston Red Sox, Arizona Diamondbacks, Cleveland Indians, and the Colorado Rockies all are up 2-0 in the their respective division series.

By tomorrow night, game 3 in each series will have been played. All four teams could sweep, and we can begin the NLCS/ALCS.
