Judge's stat line looks solid -- but his power has gone missing and the Yankees are on the brink of elimination. What gives?
All the way over on the west coast, the Mariners picked up a much-needed 3-2 win against the Tigers, with Jorge Polanco and Julio Rodríguez each playing hero. Polanco hit two solo home runs off of Detroit ace Tarik Skubal, then Rodríguez delivered the go-ahead double in the bottom of the eighth inning.
Detroit Tigers lost 3-2 to Seattle Mariners in Game 2 of the ALDS, tying up the series at 1-1. Here are highlights from the game in MLB playoffs.
What can we learn from a week of MLB postseason baseball? Enough to make our experts go all-in on their boldest predictions.
The Cubs needed to be at their best to even the series before going back to Chicago, but the Brewers were better all-around.
After falling behind 1-0 on a leadoff home run by Michael Busch to open the game, the Brewers regathered and dominated from there. Milwaukee pieced together three consecutive doubles to begin their half of the first inning and by the time the second rolled around, the Brewers held a comfortable 6-1 advantage.
The Detroit Tigers look to take a 2-0 lead in their American League Division Series when they battle the Seattle Mariners on Sunday night at T-Mobile Park.
On the brink of an early elimination, this Phillies team is at risk of being remembered most for what it never accomplished.
The Jaguars and Chiefs will square off, plus there are two NLDS games Monday night. Find out how to get $150 in bonus bets by wagering with the BetMGM bonus code ALMGM.
