Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia has been tormenting the Astros throughout the ALCS. That continued during Monday’s Game 7 when he obliterated a solo home run to extend Texas’s early lead.
Garcia crushed the ball the opposite way off Houston’s Hunter Brown, sending it far over the wall in right field. The no-doubt home run traveled 368 feet, as the 30-year-old gave the Rangers a 4–1 lead.
The moment was exciting from the standard broadcast.

The Diamondbacks’ dominant NLCS Game 6 victory appeared to be too much for Phillies fans on Monday, as evidenced by the startling scene inside Citizens Bank Park near the game’s end.
A 5–1 Arizona lead entering the ninth inning cast much doubt on Philadelphia’s chances of a late-game rally to close out the series. Still, with one final frame to go, the Phillies had a chance to defy the odds and pull off the win despite an off night.
Unfortunately for the home team, the home crowd didn’t seem to have any remaining patience to wait for a potential comeback.

Gotta beat that Philadelphia traffic! The Arizona Diamondbacks took a 5-1 lead over the Phillies into the ninth inning of Game 6 in the National League Championship Series (NLCS).
With the Phillies leading the series 3-2, a win meant a trip to the World Series. But, through eight innings, the series appeared headed for a Game 7. Of course, the Phillies have a prolific offense that could erase a four-run deficit.
However, many Phillies fans decided that wasn’t going to happen and said “see ya for Game 7.”

It has become nearly impossible for questionable NFL officiating not to become the focal point of post-game discussions. 
A recent plethora of blown calls, many of which have unfortunately determined the outcome of games, has drawn the ire of both current and former players.
Former Seahawks standout Richard Sherman lamented the issue plaguing the league while appearing on FS1’s Undisputed on Monday.
The five-time Pro Bowler blasted officials, claiming the referees are “ruining the beautiful game” of football.

I’m probably guilty of overlooking the best teams in the NFL for this weekly “Winners and Losers” column because it’s not a surprise when they win.
We expect the Chiefs and Eagles to play deep into January. It wouldn’t be a surprise if they meet in February again for a Super Bowl rematch.
So why not let other teams get the spotlight when it comes to the winners’ category? The Patriots and Bears will be highlighted this week for their surprising wins against the Bills and Raiders, respectively.
But I couldn’t ignore what the Chiefs and Eagles did this week.

Most NFL players tell you that they don’t care about fantasy football. Well, not Austin Ekeler. But most. And, the league pretends it doesn’t care either. But it does. Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson did not appear on the team’s injury report but hardly played against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
That raised some questions. How is Robinson, easily one of Atlanta’s best players, completely healthy yet not playing in the game? Well, he wasn’t completely healthy. It turns out that he told the team Saturday night that he wasn’t feeling well.
