On Thursday night, the entire baseball world tuned in to watch just the second Game 3 of the Wild Card Series era and it was a game fans will never forget. The New York Mets staged one of the greatest postseason comebacks of all time when Pete Alonso smashed a three-run home run in the top of the 9th, leading to a victory in series against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman analyze the exciting final match of the series before previewing what should be one of the most exciting divisional rounds in recent history. With the Philadelphia Phillies meeting the Mets for the first time in the postseason and Shohei Ohtani making his postseason debut with the Los Angeles Dodgers taking on the rival San Diego Padres, the National League will turn up the heat.
Later, Jake and Jordan head into the American League Division Series where the New York Yankees and Kansas City Royals are expected to meet in the playoffs for the first time since the 1980 ALCS, in what could be a true David versus Goliath showdown. The guys also discuss the Cleveland Guardians and Detroit Tigers who made ALDS history, becoming the first two AL Central teams to face each other in the postseason.
