    Dodgers’ brilliant pitching sinks Brewers to 0-2 NLCS hole + Mariners two wins away from 1st World Series berth

    The Milwaukee Brewers won the most games this season with their impressive and dynamic play on the field. However, when the Los Angeles Dodgers came to American Family Field two days ago, they arrived with two elite starting pitchers, hoping to shut down the Brew Crew and return to LA in the driver’s seat. That is exactly what happened. On this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about the incredible back-to-back pitching performances from Blake Snell in Game 1 and the complete-game shutout by Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Game 2 that has the Dodgers heading home with a 2-0 NLCS series lead. The guys discuss whether the Brewers can overcome the Dodgers' stellar rotation and force the series to return to Milwaukee before it’s too late. Also on this episode, Jake and Jordan dive into the Seattle Mariners taking a 2-0 lead—also on the road—in the ALCS against the Toronto Blue Jays, with the help of some incredibly timely hitting from Jorge Polanco. They preview the upcoming Game 3 and 4 matchups to see if Shane Bieber and Max Scherzer can somehow stop the rolling Mariners from reaching their first World Series in franchise history. Later, the guys recap all the managerial and personnel shifts from around the league. 1:54 - The Opener: Dodgers go up 2-0 21:05 - LA’s pitching is the difference 26:23 - Mariners take 2-0 lead 34:22 - Blue Jays’ disappointing offense 43:27 - Around The League: Managerial shifts Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎧 Spotify 🖥️ YouTube 📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast network or yahoosports.tv And check out Jake, Jordan & the show on X or Instagram: 🌤️ @CespedesBBQ: https://bsky.app/profile/cespedesbbq.bsky.social 🐦 @CespedesBBQ: https://x.com/CespedesBBQ 📷 @CespedesBBQ: https://www.instagram.com/cespedesbbq ⚾ @Jake_Mintz: https://x.com/Jake_Mintz 🧢 @J_Shusterman: https://x.com/j_shusterman_

    Mariners take Game 1 of ALCS, Brewers & Dodgers set for NLCS clash + Cubs-Tigers postmortem

    After the epic 15-inning ALDS Game 5 classic that saw the Seattle Mariners take down the Detroit Tigers, the Toronto Blue Jays were set to take on a tired M’s club in the ALCS. However, the Mariners proved them wrong and shocked the baseball world by taking down Toronto on the road and grabbing an early 1-0 series advantage. On this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman break down all the action from Game 1, which saw Cal Raleigh go deep yet again and the Blue Jays make a questionable decision by pulling Kevin Gausman in the 6th inning. The guys examine what the rest of the series could look like as the Mariners eye their first trip to the World Series. Also in this episode, Jake and Jordan preview the NLCS, which could be a series for the ages between the reigning champion Los Angeles Dodgers and the Milwaukee Brewers. While there are a few key players to watch on both clubs, the guys wonder if now is the time for Shohei Ohtani to break out of his postseason slump and send the Dodgers back to the Fall Classic to become the first team to repeat as champions since the Yankees’ '90s dynasty. Later, Jake and Jordan give a postmortem on the Chicago Cubs and Tigers following their postseason exits and discuss where both teams might go from here.   2:01 – The Opener: ALCS Game 1 recap 24:07 – We Need To Talk About: ALDS Game 5 37:00 – NLCS Preview 51:54 – Dodgers or Brewers?

    Dodgers walk-off into the NLCS, Cubs force Game 5 with Brewers & Tigers-Mariners set for Friday showdown

    The Los Angeles Dodgers have booked their 8th trip to the National League Championship Series since 2013 by walking off in the bottom of the 11th inning against the Philadelphia Phillies. While Dodgers fans celebrated advancing, it was Orion Kerkering and the rest of Philly left wondering what if. On this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman break down the unfortunate error by Kerkering that led to the Dodgers eliminating the Phillies — and why he doesn’t deserve all of the blame. The guys then go on to question whether the Phillies have a larger issue brewing with their roster after failing to win the World Series in recent seasons and what’s next for their impending free agents. Also on this episode, Jake and Jordan discuss the Chicago Cubs taking down the Milwaukee Brewers in Game 4, forcing a winner-take-all Game 5 back in Milwaukee this Saturday. With the Brewers failing to capitalize on a 2-0 series lead, the question now is: who will the Brew Crew turn to in the must-win game to help validate their season? Later, the guys preview the ALDS Game 5 between the Detroit Tigers and Seattle Mariners, featuring what is sure to be one of the most enticing pitching matchups of the postseason — George Kirby vs. Tarik Skubal.   1:00 – The Opener: Dodgers advance to NLCS 20:25 – Where do the Phillies go from here? 26:04 – Cubs force a Game 5 30:47 – Brewers make questionable choices 42:49 – Tigers-Mariners Game 5 preview 47:35 – ALDS Game 5 prediction Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎧 Spotify 🖥️ YouTube 📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast network or yahoosports.tv And check out Jake, Jordan & the show on X or Instagram: 🌤️ @CespedesBBQ: https://bsky.app/profile/cespedesbbq.bsky.social 🐦 @CespedesBBQ: https://x.com/CespedesBBQ 📷 @CespedesBBQ: https://www.instagram.com/cespedesbbq ⚾ @Jake_Mintz: https://x.com/Jake_Mintz 🧢 @J_Shusterman: https://x.com/j_shusterman_

    Blue Jays eliminate the Yankees, Tigers-M’s go to Game 5 and Phillies & Cubs force Game 4 in NLDS

    The Toronto Blue Jays are the first team to punch their ticket to the League Championship Series after knocking out the New York Yankees on Wednesday night. It’ll be the first time since 2016 that Canada’s team will be playing for the AL pennant. However, their opponent is still up in the air, with a massive Game 5 set to take place on Friday. On this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about the Blue Jays eliminating the Yankees and why the Bronx Bombers always seemed just a hair behind Toronto as the season progressed. They also discuss Aaron Judge’s Game 3 heroics and whether that single-game performance is enough to get some fans off his back about his postseason production. Also on this episode, Jake and Jordan break down the upcoming Game 5 that will decide the series between the Detroit Tigers and the Seattle Mariners, with the winner set to face the Blue Jays in the ALCS this weekend. Then they turn to the NLDS, which suddenly got a lot tighter after both the Chicago Cubs and Philadelphia Phillies won their Game 3s to stave off elimination and live to play another day. 2:07 – The Opener: Yankees get eliminated 11:30 – Blue Jays' impressive showing in the ALDS 19:56 – Mariners & Tigers set for Game 5 27:02 – How does this series shape up? 34:05 – Phillies avoid elimination in Game 3 47:18 – Brewers-Cubs set for Game 4 Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app: 🎧 Apple Podcasts 🎧 Spotify 🖥️ YouTube 📢 Check out the Yahoo Sports podcast network or yahoosports.tv And check out Jake, Jordan & the show on X or Instagram: 🌤️ @CespedesBBQ: https://bsky.app/profile/cespedesbbq.bsky.social 🐦 @CespedesBBQ: https://x.com/CespedesBBQ 📷 @CespedesBBQ: https://www.instagram.com/cespedesbbq ⚾ @Jake_Mintz: https://x.com/Jake_Mintz 🧢 @J_Shusterman: https://x.com/j_shusterman_
