Blake Snell's Gem, the Mariners Take a 2-0 ALCS Lead & the Yankees' Offseason Plans

Eno and DVR discuss Blake Snell's dominant performance in a Game 1 NLCS win over the Brewers, despite a Brewers' rally attempt against Roki Sasaki and Blake Treinen, and an extremely unusual 8-6-2 double play that kept the game scoreless courtesy of Sal Frelick, Joey Ortiz and William Contreras. Plus, they discuss the Mariners' 10-run outburst in Toronto as the ALCS heads to Seattle with the M's holding a 2-0 lead. Brendan Kuty of The Athletic stops by to discuss the Yankees' offseason plans after another October without a parade in the Bronx.
