League Championship baseball dominates the sports landscape this fine Monday, as it’s definitely the only major professional sport in North America with two feature games on the docket.
Trust me!
The Seattle
Mariners will look to take a commanding 2-0 series lead over the Toronto Blue Jays first, as those two clubs are set to tussle north of the border beginning at 5:03 PM ET. Logan Gilbert will start for the M’s while Trey Yesavage will go for Toronto.
Later on Monday night, the Los Angeles Dodgers will take on the Milwaukee Brewers in the artist formerly known as Miller Park, with first pitch being lobbed out by lefty opener Andy Ashby at roughly 8:08 PM ET. Two-time Cy Young Award winner (and Cincinnati Reds dominator) Blake Snell will start for the Dodgers.
ALCS Game 2 will be aired on both FOX and FS1, giving you the option of watching the game free by simply plugging an ol’ antenna into your television and finding your local FOX affiliate. NLCS Game 1, meanwhile, can only be viewed on TBS (or through HBO Max if you pay extra for the sports streaming package), making the Senior Circuit the greedy bunch of you-know-whats of this setup.
It’s a big day for baseball, as the sport soldiers on without the presence of the New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox, and New York Mets. How will it ever survive?!
