#1 Four playoff games on Thursday Jerry let’s review taking on the first one the Cleveland Guardians are down 1-2 after struggling against the Detroit Tigers. The Guardians were shutout by another excellent exhibition of pitching by Tiger starter Keider Montero who went one inning it was his reliever Brant Hurter who pitched 3.1 innings allowing five hits after Hurter and four Tiger relievers finished off the job shutting out the Guardians for the 3-0 win.
#2 The New York Mets knocked out the Philadelphia Phillies three games out of four in the NLDS. The Mets on Thursday down 1-0 in the bottom of the sixth put together a four run rally and won it in a three run 4-2 decision.
