Welcome to Rates and Barrels episode number 147 playoff episode number five.

Derek Van Riper, Inoceris, Britt Geroli, here

0:22.1

with you. It is Friday, October 2nd. We are moving through this wild card round, and it was a

0:28.9

wild day on Thursday. A lot of exciting games to talk about. We got a few game threes coming up

0:35.2

on Friday to get ready for as well. Let's get
