Mark Vientos had a type-breaking two-run single during a five-run outburst in the fifth inning

as the New York Mance beat the Milwaukee Brewers eight to four yesterday in an ML wildcard

series opener.

Jesse Winker and Pinch Hitter, JD Martinez, Martinez, each drove in two runs for the

Mets.

Bryce Turing, one for three for four.

Jackson Turell was two for four and William Contreras had two RBIs for the Brewers.

Milwaukee has now lost ten of its last 11 playoff games.

The Brewers try to stay off elimination later today.

Frankie Montaz takes the mount for the Milwaukee Brewers, while Sean Manayah goes for the

Mets.

First pitch for tonight's contest will be at 638, and you'll be able to hear the broadcast

of that game on WRC, 107.7, and AM 1450 with the pre-game starting at around six o'clock.

Earlier today in Major League Baseball, the Tigers beat the Astros, five to two, and that

best of three series.

So they took that best of three series because the Tigers won yesterday, so they advance

on.

Also, the Royal Speeds, the Orioles yesterday, so the Orioles, I should say, are looking

to take that series right now.

It's tied at one a piece in the bottom of the fifth inning.

And besides the brewer met matchup tonight's other playoff game will feature the Padres

hosting the Braves, and the Padres lead that series one game to none.

Two days after Braden, Narvison missed a pair of field goals and a two point loss to

the Minnesota Vikings.

The Green Bay Packers worked out a pair of kickers.

Chad Rylind and Lucas Habsick yesterday.

Narvison has missed four field goals in four games.

Rylind was a fourth round pick of the New England Patriots in the 2023 draft.

He made 16 of 25 field goals and 24 of 25 extra points during his rookie season.

Harvysick made 15 of 20 field goals and 19 of 22 extra points over nine games with the

loss and full of swamps.

Last season.

Alumni like JJ Watt, Melvin Gordon, Sam Decker, and Zach Showalter all weighed in on social

media to express their frustrations with the Padres 38-21 loss to USC on Saturday.

Adding to that frustration was a cryptic tweet from now jet and former Badger running

back, Braille and Allen, who said someday he'd explain what was going on during his last

season with Wisconsin.

Despite the unrest, Fickle says he doesn't let the outside noise affect him or his approach,

the Badgers will try to get back on track Saturday at Camp Randall against one in three,

Purdue.

Las Vegas Raiders coach Antonio Pierce channeled his inner bill check after being asked repeatedly

about star wide receiver and former Green Bay Packer Devante Adams's status with the

team.

Pierce said the Raiders were focused on the Denver Broncos.

The Raiders visits a Broncos on Sunday, whether Adams will be on the flight to Denver is

very much an open question giving this week's developments.

He could miss his second game in a row with a hamstring injury, but multiple reports

have said he wants out of Las Vegas and that the Raiders might be willing to accommodate

such a request.

New York Jets wide receiver and also former Green Bay Packer, Ellen Lazard expects to be

fined by the NFL for his celebration after a catch against Denver last Sunday.

That included what officials deemed to be a gun-like gesture.

Lazard called the situation very, very silly.

The wide receiver said his coaches have talked to him about it, but added he has received

zero clarification from the NFL on the 15 yard unsportsman-like conduct penalty for

what he was called.

Lazard caught a 12 yard pass from Aaron Rodgers in the third quarter, when while sitting

on the turf, he signaled for a first down by flicking his hands in a gun-like motion.

And Pete Rose still isn't going into the baseball hall of fame.

The career hits leaders' banishment from baseball 35 years ago was often referred to as

a lifetime band, and his death this week led some to believe that it would end.

That Rose was actually declared permanently ineligible by Major League Baseball rules

for betting on the game.

As in forever, unless there is a formal reinstatement.

Since players or officials on MLB's ineligible lists can't be considered for election into

the hall of fame, Rose's status didn't change when he died on Monday at the age of 83.
