Plus: Monday doubleheader as NLCS begins
Good morning! Evan Carter is making a name for himself this October. |
|
|
| Rookie Evan Carter has been a revelation this postseason, and his legend grew with a pivotal leaping catch in the eighth inning that resulted in the Rangers doubling up Jose Altuve. |
|
| | The last time Houston dropped the first game of a playoff series -- the 2022 World Series against the Phillies -- it turned out pretty well. Perhaps that's why the Astros so easily flipped the page following Sunday's loss. |
|
|
| While the fourth-seeded Phillies hope to reach the Fall Classic for the second straight year and hoist the Commissioner's Trophy this time around, the sixth-seeded D-backs look to win their first NL Championship Series since 2001. |
|
|
| What will it take for the Rangers and D-backs to keep rolling? Can the Astros punch back in Game 2? Can The Bank get any louder? Find out the answers in an October doubleheader. |

Evan Carter -- 21 years old and five weeks into his MLB career -- is unfazed by his first postseason. |
|
|
Nearly 40 years after they were teammates at Class A Lakeland -- where alligators roamed the clubhouse -- Torey Lovullo and Rob Thomson will face off on a national stage. |
|
|
As the D-backs lost 110 games in 2021, there was simply no way they could have known that just two years later they would be taking on the Phillies in the National League Championship Series. |

For much of 2023, Trea Turner was in a deep slump. After a low point, he took out his frustration in the cage. From there, his first year with Philly trended up into a postseason surge. |

Zac Gallen went to high school 15 minutes from Citizens Bank Park and has been open about the emotions that come with pitching so close to home. There's a different level of energy that will surely be off the charts tonight. |
| |
| One of these clubs is headed to the World Series. Let's go around the horn to break down this NLCS matchup. |
