Don Mattingly went to his best weapon early, and it cost him. The Phillies skipper deployed All-Star closer Jhoan Duran in Game one of the Wild Card Series against Atlanta, and Duran surrendered a three-run shot that sent Philadelphia home with a loss. In a best-of-three, there is no margin for error now.

Shifting to Dallas, Brian Schottenheimer is doing damage control after a rough debut as Cowboys head coach. Schottenheimer met with Jerry Jones following a loss to the Ravens and came out saying he's fully aligned with ownership and vowing he'll be better after a string of questionable late-game decisions. Whether words translate into wins is the only thing that matters now.

And in the WNBA, Caitlin Clark is rewriting the record books in real time. With Indiana's season on the line in Game two against Las Vegas, Clark dropped fourteen points and eleven assists before halftime alone, helping the Fever claw back into the series at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Historic doesn't begin to cover it.

That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
