The Mets and Dodgers took an early advantage
The media went into collective pants-wetting mode after Shohei Ohtani hit a three-run homer in his first playoff game. I’m not impressed when national outlets turn into a teenage girl discussing her pop-star crush. Isn’t he dreamy? Add yet another reason to the pile of “Why I want the Dodgers to lose”. Or, at least, go the distance so that their pitching staff are burned out when they face… Well, the Mets took an early advantage in the other Division Series, coming back to consign the Phillies to a third consecutive home defeat in the postseason. Still early going in both series, but by the end of the day, one team will have a clear edge… Or it will be a best of three.
