THE EVIL EMPIRE IS BACK! The New York Yankees have booked their ticket to the franchise's 41st World Series appearance. After defeating the Cleveland Guardians, 4-1 in the ALCS, thanks to the Juan Soto go-ahead homerun. The Yankees will face the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series.

The Mets continue to hang in there. In game one of the NLCS, it looked bleak for the Mets, a 9-0 blowout loss. It was not a pretty evening for fans. Mets pitcher Kodai Senga turned in 1.1 IP, 3 ER, 2 H, and 4 BB. It has not been the best postseason for Senga, who is still rehabbing from injuries.
