Welp, got half my wishes for today’s playoff games.
But man alive that double play at home and third by a catcher made my whole day.😁

This is the first 8-6-2 (or 8-6-2-2) double play in the playoffs over at least the last 35 postseasons

The last time there was a play like this in the regular season was by the Reds on April 16, 2004 (8-6-2). CF: Ken Griffey Jr. Batter: Sammy Sosa

Chaotic is an understatement. 😂

The Brewers just pulled off the most chaotic double play you'll ever see

$20 to any reporter in the postgame press conference who asks Sal Frelick if he did that on purpose.

Most insane double-play I’ve ever seen. Did anyone notice how close the deflected ball was to the yellow line on the outfield wall? Talk about reversal of fortune

Need the Brewers to meet the Mariners in the World Series, Milwaukee is so much closer than Los Angeles.

Dodgers vs Brewers.

Mariners vs Blue Jays.

That's just full of fantastically fun stories and potential matchups. Can't wait.

FINAL: Brewers 3, Cubs 1

The best team in baseball this season advances to the NLCS, where the Dodgers await. Milwaukee did it with excellent pitching and three solo HR, and Miller Park will host Game 1 on Monday. The Cubs pushed the Brewers to the limit. Milwaukee was better.
