Game 1 of the MLB Divisional Series did not Disappoint

The MLB Divisional Series did not disappoint last night. The vibes were high, and the drama was high, especially in Milwaukee.

After Jackson Chourio tied the game with at 2-run homer in the 3rd, the Brewers took the lead for good following a William Contreras homer in the 7th. The game came down to a very bizarre play: Ty France’s moonshot in the 9th hit a cable at the top of American Family Field; the ball ultimately landed in Chourio’s glove, and that was the final blow to the Padres.

Final score: 3-2 Brewers. Where would that France ball have landed?

No one knows. The Braves looked tired following their cross-country trip to LA.

They pitched a bullpen game, and the temperature in SoCal was over 100 on the field. All of that was a horrible cocktail for Atlanta; Tarik Skubal was on the mound and in a bit of a groove.

The Dodgers got homers from Hernandez, Tucker, and Muncy. The Braves got homers from Sean Murphy and Ozzie Albies, but it was not enough.

The final Score was 5-3. The White Sox are still riding high.

Murakami hit a big 2-run homer in the 4th, and the Sox did not look back. They pitched a bullpen game.

They used 5 pitchers and only gave up 3 hits all game. The final score was 3-0.

And Murakami is becoming a treasure in two countries. We’re closing with the game at the Trop.

Drew Rasmussen delivered a gem. He carried a no-hitter into the 8th—Rasmussen: 8 IP, 1 H, 10 Ks, against the Bombers.

Jonathan Aranda hit a solo blast in the 3rd, and that was all the offense the Rays. Austin Wells had a shot to get something going, but he tried to stretch a double into a triple and got gunned down at 3rd.

The final score was 1-0. Special thanks to our guest Elijah Flewellen @flewellen727 for contributing to today’s episode.
