Freddy Peralta is doing something that hasn't been done in over half a century. The Rays right-hander has carved his name into the same sentence as Bob Gibson and Walter Johnson, two of the most dominant arms in baseball history, with a pitching milestone that puts him in genuinely rare air this season.
Speaking of history being made, Milwaukee is ready to party. The Brewers are in the World Series, and the city's Third Ward is turning into a destination for Games One and Two on October twenty-third and twenty-fourth. Giant screens, live programming, food, drinks, and the kind of electric atmosphere you only get when your team is playing for it all.
And college football's midseason report card is in, and it is brutal. Five of the top ten teams went down last weekend in what might be the wildest Saturday of the year. Only six undefeated programs remain, led by Miami at number one and BYU right behind them at two, with Texas Tech, UCLA, Utah, and James Madison still standing tall.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
