Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Teoscar Hernández delivered when it mattered most, pushing the Dodgers to the brink of another NLCS appearance. Los Angeles has been here before during their back-to-back championship run, but this performance felt different — a statement win that has Atlanta on the ropes and the Dodgers one step from the next round.
Shifting to the ice, two defensemen went down Tuesday night and neither returned. Utah Mammoth blueliner Mikhail Sergachev took a puck directly to the back of the helmet during a five to three win over New Jersey and was immediately pulled from the game. Meanwhile in Seattle, Ryan Lindgren lasted all of fifteen seconds against Vegas before leaving with an upper-body injury, putting the Kraken in a tough spot early.
And on the hardwood, Oklahoma City opened their two thousand twenty six to twenty seven NBA preseason with a one sixteen to one ten loss to New Orleans, but the real story was the B squad. Jared McCain and seven-footer Aday Mara connected on a near full-court alley-oop that had Tulsa buzzing, giving Thunder fans plenty to feel good about heading into the regular season.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
