Former Tampa Bay Rays All-Star pitcher Lance Carter from Bradenton will join Bright House Sports Network's post-game coverage of the team's American League Championship Series against the Boston Red Sox.

Former Ray Fred McGriff joins Rock Riley and Tom Buehring for analysis and player interviews from Tropicana Field on Friday and Saturday before the Rays take on the Red Sox.

The postgame show airs immediately following the game, with Buehring and Carter in the studio and Riley live at the Trop.

More coverage

FSN Florida will televise live pre- and postgame shows for all games during the ALCS.

FSN Florida's Rays announcers, Dewayne Staats, Joe Magrane and Todd Kalas, along with Sun Sports and FSN Florida reporter Whit Watson, will take viewers through all the action.

Stat of the day

19: Postseason games pitched by Chad Bradford without allowing a run, the longest among active relievers in the major leagues.

Bradford made two scoreless appearances in the ALDS. He has thrown 18 1/3 scoreless postseason innings.

Umpires set

The umpires for the ALCS are:

Tim McClelland (home plate for Game 1), Sam Holbrook (first base), Brian O'Nora (second base), Brian Gorman (third base), Alfonso Marquez (left field) and Derryl Cousins (right field).

McClelland has the most postseason experience, having worked five division series, seven league championship series and four World Series.

Dynamic duo

Evan Longoria and B.J. Upton became the first pair of teammates under the age of 25 to have multi-homer games in a single postseason. That information is provided by the Elias Sports Bureau.

Longoria homered twice in Game 1 of the ALDS. Upton homered twice in Game 4.
