Last night, the day after the Orioles lost to the Rangers, two other teams fell in battle: the Dodgers and the Twins.
Multiple division champions don’t have it easy, do they?
The Arizona Diamondbacks (who celebrated in their pool) made short work of the Dodgers. We knew Arizona had a good ball club, but how good?
The Serpents are undefeated in five playoff games, which is pretty crazy, when you think about it.
Just before, the Minnesota Twins fell to the Astros, who managed to qualify for the championship series for the seventh year in a row.
Still, eh?
We have seen the cream rise to the surface and the Houston Astros always seem to find a way to win playoff games. Yesterday was no exception… and we will have a Texas series.
It’s a shame for Édouard Julien, who can be proud of his series despite everything.
This means that there are only five teams left alive. And by Saturday evening, one of these clubs will logically end up falling.
Yes, a chance that the series between the Phillies and the Braves is here. After all, even including the wild card duels, it’s the only one that’s close.
The Twins may have given their fans some hope, but…
The Braves’ comeback in Game 2 made for a great series that was close, exciting and emotional. Talk to Bryce Harper, who didn’t like being fooled by Orlando Arcia after his mistake in match #2.
Orlando Arcia may say that he didn’t want his “Atta boy Harper” comment to be heard publicly on the sidelines of the star’s bad run, but…
But it was up to him to close his eyes. There, he woke up the Bear, who hit two home runs in a 10-2 win…and who let Arcia know he’d been taking notes. Wow.
This evening, from 8 p.m., the two teams will cross swords in Philly. If the Phillies win, they will have the right to face the DBacks in the championship series.
If Atlanta forces a final match to be held, it will be decided on Saturday (8 p.m.).
Subsequently, on Sunday, the Astros will host the Rangers in the first game of the American Championship Series.
The Diamondbacks will have to wait until Monday before starting their series. They are also waiting to see if it will start in Pennsylvania or Georgia.
- Mookie Betts knows he didn’t do anything.
- Gabriel Moreno is ready for what’s next. His hand is not bad.
- The Twins are building the foundations for what comes next.
- Whit Merrifield didn’t like seeing Jose Berrios out too early in match #2.
