Thanks to Giancarlo Stanton and the steadfast Yankee bullpen, New York has the lead again in this ALDS and can close it out with a win tonight. They’ll let their star player Gerrit Cole out again and try to bounce back from a bad night to open the series in the Bronx, and depending on the results of the day’s earlier game, they could be first to clinch an ALCS spot secures.

Last night’s results are still with us in the morning, however, and Matt begins his playoff recap. Then Sam introduces our Player of the Game win for Game 3 (spoiler: he showed power and speed!), Peter offers further thoughts on what the Yankees showed in yesterday’s win, and Casey shares his experience with the intensity , which means I’m watching the playoffs.

Questions/Suggestions:

1. Will we see an experienced Gerrit Cole in the starting lineup tonight to close out the series, or will it be another scary one-run game?

2. What do you think about the Mets toppling the Phillies? Will the Tigers follow suit and end Cleveland’s year today?
