Milwaukee is one win away from the World Series. The Brewers stunned Blake Snell and the Dodgers in Game three of the NLCS, taking a three to nothing series lead. Snell opened the seventh with a walk, then surrendered back-to-back home runs to Jake Bauers and Garrett Mitchell. Dave Roberts left him in a beat too long, and Los Angeles is now staring down elimination on their own turf.
Shifting to the hardwood, Denver's Julian Strawther left the preseason opener against the Clippers with a frightening knee injury. Trying to protect the ball from Isaiah Jackson, his foot slipped and his left knee buckled in a direction no knee should ever go. He stayed down in visible pain, and the Nuggets are now holding their breath waiting on evaluation results.
And in college football, number one Georgia heads to Auburn for the Deep South's Oldest Rivalry, a series that dates back to eighteen ninety two. Georgia barely survived Alabama last week in a controversial finish, and Auburn is desperate to prove this ranking means nothing on their home field. Kickoff cannot come fast enough.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
