Today's word of the day is 'doughnut' as in 0 as in shutout as in what the Atlanta Braves have been able to do four times in five postseason games. The Braves shutout the Marlins to close up its NLDS series and advance to the NLCS to face the Los Angeles Dodgers. This was the best matchup for baseball fans. The two best teams all season will get to wrestle for a spot in the World Series. What does the front office do the day after your team has been eliminated from the postseason? It's an interesting conversation. Do you start to make moves? Do you wait and see? What happens? The Miami Marlins are asking themselves all of these questions right now. This was a strange season and the Marlins were able to make a little run, but what about 2021 (0:06)? Dwayne Haskins was benched by Ron Rivera. Why is this a worthy conversation? Let's talk about the reasons Rivera said that Haskins was benched. Not a great look for the head coach (26:29). Review - Red Dog (37:25). We've got Game 5 of Yankees-Rays tonight. This is it. The deciding game and Gerrit Cole is pitching on short rest for the first time in his career (40:30). We've got Game 5 in the NBA Finals tonight. LeBron going for ring number four. China is showing an NBA game for the first time in over a year! Will LBJ get the ring (44:20)? #waittosee
