Here’s a summary of the home run totals and highlights from yesterday’s MLB playoff games:
- Dodgers beat the Braves: 3-2
- Rays edged out the Yankees: 1-0
- Brewers shut out the Padres: 2-0
- White Sox narrowly defeated the Guardians: 1-0
Key Points:
- The top six hitters in the Guardians’ lineup went 0 for 18 without hitting a home run, contributing to their loss.
- The Guardians have an off-day to regroup and adjust before their next game.
- Afternoon shadows could be a factor for the next game, potentially affecting the Guardians’ hitting against the White Sox bullpen.
- Drew Rasmussen’s outstanding performance against the Yankees included seven scoreless, hitless innings, with a notable play involving Austin Wells getting thrown out at third base.
Note:
There’s a focus on base-running errors, particularly the importance of avoiding making the first or third out of an inning at third base.
