Gleyber Torres is 0 for 6.
Riley Greene is 0 for 6.
Spencer Torkelson is 0 for 6.

The beauty of the game is its symmetry.

Since I've possibly already jinxed one matchup, it's absolutely wild the Tigers and Dodgers have never met in a World Series.

A very '60s-core matchup. Don Drysdale in slo-mo, blowing one past Norm Cash in Technicolor. Did this happen? It must have.

Could possibly have Kirby vs. Springer in the next round, which begs the question: Last time there were two Georges in a playoff series?
Probably happened all the time in the ‘50s.

This year marks just the fourth time in 20 years that none of the East Coast ratings behemoths (Yankees, Red Sox, Phillies, Mets) qualified for the AL or NLCS. First time since 2020 (also 2011, 2014, 2016).
