The Yankees Win It!


Congrats to the New York Yankees, who defeated the Guardians 5-1 and clinched their Divisional Series!  I have a few friends who I know are very excited tonight!

The Yankees move on the ALCS, where they’ll face the Astros for the right to represent the AL in the World Series!

I’m from Texas so have to cheer for the Astros but I’m still happy for the Yankees and all of their fans tonight!  See you for Game 1 of the ALCS tomorrow!

NLCS Preview: Padre Rap!


The Phillies and the Padres are meeting tonight for Game One of the NLCS.  Just a few months ago, no one would have predicted that these two teams would be the ones competing for the chance to represent the NL in the World Series.  I’ll be cheering for the Padres because Yu Darvish is going to be on the mound for them but I also think the Phillies have got an amazing story and I’ll be happy for them if that story includes them going to the World Series.

The Padres have already launched a mental attack on their opponents:

Can the Phillies recover from the horrors of Padre rap?  We’ll find out tonight!  We’ll also find out if it will be the Yankees or the Guardians facing off against the Astros in the ALCS.  It’s an exciting night for baseball!

The Astros Advance!


It may have taken 18 innings to get there but the Astros are going to the American League Championship Series for the sixth consecutive season!  Congratulations to the Astros and a big thank you to Jeremy Pena, whose 18th inning home run gave the Astros a 1-0 victory over the Mariners!

Congrats to the Astros!


Today, in the MLB playoffs, the Yankees/Guardians game was delayed by inclement weather.  However, the Astros did play and they defeated the Mariners by a score of 4-2.  That means that the Astros are just one more game away from advancing to their sixth consecutive championship series!

Congrats to the Astros and good luck to all the teams playing tomorrow.
