You're locked in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
The Milwaukee Brewers are one win away from ending the Dodgers' dynasty run, and Los Angeles is in full crisis mode. Jake Bauers went deep in the seventh inning, Blake Snell got stunned, and a six to two Milwaukee win puts the Brewers up three games to nothing in the National League Championship Series. Max Muncy said it best — and we're paraphrasing here — the Dodgers are playing terribly, and Milwaukee is playing great. Champagne is already chilling at Dodger Stadium. That's not a good sign when you're the home team.
Shifting to the hardwood, the San Antonio Spurs gave everyone a first look at something that could be genuinely dangerous. Coach Mitch Johnson finally unleashed the three-guard lineup of De'Aaron Fox, Dylan Harper, and Stephon Castle in a preseason blowout of the Suns, one hundred twenty three to one hundred three. The basketball world has been waiting on this combination, and the early returns were electric.
And over in the Champions League, Manchester United dropped two nil to Atlético Madrid, and the questions surrounding technical director Jason Wilcox are getting louder. Sir Jim Ratcliffe's patience appears to be thinning as United struggle to find any identity under the current setup. Lisandro Martínez was furious after the final whistle, and honestly, so is the fan base.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
