The 2025 MLB postseason is here. The MLB regular season came to a close on Sunday, September 28, setting the stage for a playoff field where there’s no clear dominant team. Fans can expect plenty of chaos, drama, and unpredictability. We wouldn’t have it any other way.

In the other ALDS game of the day, the Mariners came out of a three-hour rain delay, the Mariners got down to business and took down the Tigers, holding on to an 8-4 victory thanks to home runs from Eugenio Suárez,

The first fan had been running through the outfield as security gave chase, with a security officer in a blue shirt coming from the first base side of the stadium to tackle the offender as other security guards arrived to detain the individual.

A massive comeback fueled by home runs from Aaron Judge and Jazz Chisholm Jr. helped the Yankees avoid elimination and force a Game 4 with a 9-6 win over the Toronto Blue Jays at home Tuesday.

This choice is reminiscent to last October when Leiter was left off the Yankees’ ALDS and ALCS rosters. He then was subbed on for the remainder of the Championship Series against the Guardians as an injury replacement, filling in for Ian Hamilton.

This is the kind of assignment that used to fall on the right shoulder of David Cone, or the left one of Andy Pettitte, back in the dynasty days. CC Sabathia merrily assumed the burden for a while, including the last time the Yankees went the distance. If things had gone according to plan this year, it would be Gerrit Cole’s responsibility.
