On Thursday night, the entire baseball world tuned in to watch only Game 3 of Game 2 of the Wild Card Series era, and it was a game fans will never forget. The New York Mets had one of the greatest comebacks in postseason history when Pete Alonso hit a go-ahead three-run homer in the top of the ninth inning, leading to a series-clinching victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.
Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman break down the thrilling series finale before previewing what will likely be one of the most exciting divisional rounds in recent history. The National League will bring the excitement as the Philadelphia Phillies play the Mets for the first time in the postseason and Shohei Ohtani makes his playoff debut against the Los Angeles Dodgers and the rival San Diego Padres.
Jake and Jordan then jump into the American League Division Series, where the New York Yankees and Kansas City Royals will meet in the playoffs for the first time since the 1980 ALCS, and it could be a true David vs. Goliath showdown. They also talk about the Cleveland Guardians and Detroit Tigers, who made ALDS history by becoming the first two American League Central teams to meet in the postseason.
