Atlanta sent a message to the NFC South on Monday night. The Falcons dismantled the Saints forty-five to twenty-four in New Orleans, with Bijan Robinson and Brian Robinson combining for five rushing touchdowns. Michael Penix is now two and zero as a starter, and this team looks dangerous.
Meanwhile in the ALDS, the Yankees are in serious trouble. Tampa Bay took Game Two five to two after New York committed four errors, gifting the Rays opportunities they did not waste. The Yankees head home down two games to none, with their backs firmly against the wall and their season hanging by a thread.
And the White Sox are riding a wave of their own. Rookie outfielder Braden Montgomery came off the bench in Cleveland and delivered the kind of moment postseason legends are made of, helping Chicago rally to take a two to nothing series lead over the Guardians. Nobody saw that one coming, but that is October baseball doing exactly what it does.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
