CAPITOL TIMES MEDIA

The Milwaukee Brewers took an early lead in tonight’s game five, got five plus innings from all-star pitcher Jacob Misiorowski, and cruised to a 4 to 1 World Series clinching win over the Tampa Bay Rays. Milwaukee started the scoring tonight. In the top of the second Brice Turang doubled to center field. Sal Frelick was hit by a pitch sending Turang to second base. Cooper Pratt followed with a single to center scoring Turang. 1-0 Brewers. The Brewers got another run home in t

The line score tells you everything you need to know about tonight’s third game of the World Series. The visiting Milwaukee Brewers scored 10 runs on 16 hits with 0 errors. The home town Tampa Rays scored 1 run on 3 hits with 1 error. But if you’d like to know how those line scores were created, please read on. The Brewers got the scoring going tonight with a two-run top of the third. With one out Jackson Chourio singled to left field. Jake Bauers followed with a base-on-ball

Weekend Review October 17th The Tampa Bay Rays scored three runs in the seventh and two in the ninth to pull away from the Cleveland Guardians on their way to a 7 to 3 series tying win at Progressive Field. Cleveland took the early lead in the bottom of the first. Steven Kwan led off with a single to left field. Kwan stole second base and came around to score on a single by Clase DeLauer. 1-0 Guardians. Tampa Bay tied it up in the top of the third. With two outs Yandy Diaz do

Two games on today’s schedule. Game three of the ALCS in Cleveland. Series tied 1-1. And game four of the NLCS in Los Angeles. The Brewers ahead 3-0. Here’s a brief summary of both: The crowd was raucous in Progressive Field this afternoon as the Cleveland Guardians took a two to one series lead over the Tampa Bay Devil Rays with a 3 to 2 victory. On a fine-looking afternoon with the stadium full of kids skipping school and adults calling in sick, the atmosphere was electric

Tampa pretty much had to have this game tonight. They certainly didn’t want to head to Ohio down two games with the next three in Cleveland. Good pitching and an unfortunate error led them to victory. We had a pitching duel this evening until the bottom of the fourth. Junior Caminero led off with a walk for the Rays and was forced out at second on a grounder by Victor Mesa. With two outs Chandler Simpson beat out an infield single with Mesa making it to third base. Ben Wiliam

There was a little more scoring this afternoon than in yesterday’s 2-1 Brewers’ win. Milwaukee got the bats going and scored seven runs on twelve hits in game two of the National League Championship Series. Los Angeles actually started the scoring in the top of the first. Mookie Betts led off with a walk, went to second on a fielder’s choice, stole third, and scored on Teoscar Hernandez’ sac fly. 1-0 LA. The Brewers tied it up in the bottom of the first as Brice Turang double

The Cleveland Guardians staved off elimination for the second day in a row with a dramatic six-run top of the sixth, and then kept the White Sox in check for a 9-5 victory. The White Sox took the early lead in the bottom of the third. Colson Montogomery led off with an infield single. Chase Meidroth doubled to left sending Montgomery to third. Miguel Vargas walked, loading the bases. Munetaka Murakami also walked scoring Montgomery. Sam Antonacci hit a sac fly to right filed

The Cleveland Guardians finally broke out the lumber by scoring nine runs on eleven hits in defeating the Chicago White Sox. This was the Sox first loss in the playoffs after sweeping two games in the Wild Card Round and winning the first two in this Division Series in Cleveland. I guess playing on the road calmed Cleveland down a little and allowed them to concentrate on what they knew they had to do. The White Sox took an early one run lead in the bottom of the first. Sam A

The Atlanta Braves scored early and were then able to hold down the Philadelphia Phillies to win the last of their three-game Wild Card series 6 to 2. The Braves got off to a fast start due to Michael Harris’ three-run homer to center field. That blast also scored Matt Olson and Ronald Acuna who had both walked. 3-0 Braves. The Braves added a couple of runs to their lead in the bottom of the fourth. With one out, Austin Riley walked and came home on Ozzie Albies’ two-run home

Tuesday, September 29th Tonight is the first night of Major League Baseball’s Wild Card series. The contestants are the three wild card teams from each league and the division winner with the fewest number of victories. In the National League the Atlanta Braves won the East Division but had the “worst” record out of the three division winners. So, the Braves host the wild card team with the lowest winning percentage, which in this case is the Philadelphia Phillies. The best p

The Washington Nationals relied on their bullpen this afternoon, sending a total of six pitchers to the mound in a 4-2 victory over the Detroit Tigers. The Nats won four and lost two in their six-game road trip to St. Louis and Detroit. They’ll finish the year at home starting Friday with a three-game series against the Mets. Today’s game was scoreless through the first five innings before Washington pushed a few runs across in the top of the sixth. Andrews Chaparro led off w

I recently read somewhere that CJ Abrams wasn’t having that great of a second half of the season. If you agree with that statement then just keep on reading and see if this changes your mind. The Nationals struck first in tonight’s contest as CJ Abrams led off the top of the second inning with his 32nd home run of the year. 1-0 Washington. That’s the way it stayed until the Tigers tied it up in the bottom of the 6th. Kevin McGonigle led off the inning by striking out but

Coming off their three-game series with National League rival St. Louis, the Nats looked a little downtrodden while starting another three-game series in Detroit, Michigan. Just as an aside…why are we playing the Tigers in the last week of the season? Who okayed that schedule? Detroit started fast and then activated the cruise control. Gleyber Torres led off the bottom of the first with a walk. Hao-Yu Lee then doubled to right field scoring Torres. Eduardo Valencia sing

Weekend in review… Friday, September 18th The current ace of the Washington Nationals’ pitching staff, Cade Cavalli, won his 13th game of the season tonight with five shutout innings. Cade gave up four hits while striking out six Cardinals. He was probably taken out of the game a little early due to the Nationals having a big lead. Three relievers finished it off while only surrendering a single run. The Nationals got off to a fast start tonight in St. Louis. With one out in

Friday, September 11th Finally…the Washington Nationals scored some late inning runs and then held on for a 4-3 victory over the visiting Los Angeles Angels. Staff ace Cade Cavalli started for the Nationals. He pitched six complete innings, giving up two runs on three hits while striking out nine Angels. The Angels started the scoring in the top of the first. With one out, Mike Trout smacked his 21st home run to center field. 1-0 Los Angeles. The Nationals tied it up in the b

For the third game of the three-game series, the Nationals had a lead. But this time that lead came early and only lasted half an inning. No late-inning meltdown. Still a disappointing loss, but not as heartbreaking. The Nationals jumped out to that lead in the top of the third. Keibert Ruiz led off with a home run to right field, his 10th of the year. Nasim Nunez drew a base on balls and advanced to third when Jacob Young singled to center. James Wood walked, loading the bas

Believe it or not, the Washington Nationals did it again. Going into the bottom of the eighth with a 4-1 lead, the San Diego Padres pushed across four runs and held on for a 5-4 victory. I kid you not. Tonight’s game started out as a pitcher’s duel. The score was 1-0 Nationals through the first five innings. The lone run for the Nats was scored in the top of the second inning courtesy of Yohandy Morales’ home run, his second of the season. Washington added a couple runs in th
