Wild-card series down, Division Series here we come. MLB's 12-team postseason bracket has already been whittled down to eight contenders. Now, the top two seeds from each league are set to join the fray. After advancing directly to their ALDS and NLDS slots via byes, the Astros, Yankees, Dodgers and Braves will take on challengers.
at Los Angeles Dodgers - 9:37 p.m., FS1The Guardians struck first, but Gerrit Cole and the Yankees got the last laugh in ALDS Game 1. The Yankees ace gave up an early homer, but then settled in to strike out eight over 6 1/3 otherwise scoreless innings.
New York got a homer from Harrison Bader to tie the game shortly after Cleveland's Steven Kwan opened the scoring. In an odd fifth inning where Josh Donaldson got thrown out during confusion over a near-homer, Jose Trevno eventually gave the Yankees the lead with a sacrifice fly. Anthony Rizzo's huge homer eventually sealed a 4-1 win for the Bronx Bombers.
In the end, it was an ace-like performance from Cole on a day where other top seeds saw their frontline starters struggle following long layoffs. Aaron Boone will get to hand the ball to Nestor Cortes Jr. — who posted a team-leading 2.44 ERA in the regular season — for Game 2.For 26 outs of ALDS Game 1, the legend of Julio Rodriguez and the drought-busting young Mariners looked stronger than the legend of Justin Verlander. But it was not stronger than the legend of Yordan Alvarez.
The mammoth slugger crushed a walk-off three-run homer with two outs in the ninth inning, sending the Houston crowd into delirium and stunning the Mariners.
