Murphy’s Law states that if something bad can happen, it will. Daniel Murphy plays for the New York Mets, but it was the Los Angeles Dodgers he haunted Thursday night in Game 5 of the National League Division Series. With the Mets trailing by one run against Zach Greinke, the odds-on favorite to win the NL Cy Young Award, Murphy created a run when he took an extra base on a walk. He later scored to tie the game. A few innings later, Murphy again took things into his own hands, this time roping a line drive into the right field sears to put the Mets ahead for good. New York

Kole Calhoun Robs Brock Holt Of Home Run With Incredible Catch (Video)
Brock Holt has been robbing major league hitters all season, regardless of which position he’s playing. The Boston Red Sox’s superutility player received a taste of his own medicine Tuesday. Holt tattooed a fly ball back toward the right field wall in the second inning of the Red Sox’s game against the Los Angeles Angels at Fenway Park. The deep drive looked destined to land in the Angels’ bullpen, but Kole Calhoun had other plans. Calhoun raced back, timed his jump perfectly and absolutely robbed Holt with an incredible leaping catch.
