Summary

The Dodgers are done. The Braves are done. The Mets are done. The Yankees are on the brink of elimination. The 2022 postseason has been WILD. Today we're recapping the STUNNING Padres NLDS win over the 111-win Dodgers. The Braves were also shocked by the Phillies and got bounced out of the playoffs early, so we're covering how it all went down in Philadelphia. Game 5 between the Yankees and Guardians was postponed so we're previewing the matchup in New York. Josh Naylor took Gerrit Cole deep and called him his little fucking son as he rounded the bases. We're playing Cole's press conference reaction and deciding whether he actually cares. The Mariners lost at home in the 18th inning at the hands of the Astros who will now be hosting the ALCS. We're previewing a potential Astros Vs Yankees/Guardians series. We'll see you on Friday morning to recap Games 1 and 2 of the ALCS and NLCS. Enjoy!
