You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Aaron Judge is back, and so are the Yankees. The captain crushed his first home run since May twenty-fourth Monday night, powering New York to their record sixty-first postseason berth and ninth in ten years. That's not a dynasty conversation anymore, that's just math.
Meanwhile on the other coast, the Dodgers are right there with them. Los Angeles punched their ticket to a fourteenth consecutive playoff berth with a four to one win over Cincinnati, and it was Tarik Skubal dealing seven shutout innings on the mound. Kyle Tucker and Teoscar Hernandez went deep, and a team chasing a World Series three-peat is looking every bit the part.
Shifting to the hardwood, A'ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces are staring down a golden window in the final week of the WNBA regular season. Four games against eliminated opponents stand between them and the number two playoff seed, and Wilson being Wilson, you would not bet against her making that climb count when it matters most.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
