About Last Night
Padres, Phillies and Astros progress
The NL Championship series will be contested by 5th seeds the San Diego Padres and 6th seeds the Philadelphia Phillies! The Padres eliminated the 111-win Dodgers by taking Game 4 5-3 on Saturday, while the Phillies ended the season of the #2 seed Braves with an 8-3 win. The upsets might not be over yet, either, after the Guardians moved into a 2-1 lead over the Yankees with a 6-5 Saturday win. The other AL series went with the chalk, as the Astros beat the Mariners 1-0 for a 3-0 series sweep. Our Astros vs Mariners SGP cashed at +500 odds and JutPicks was also on the money with his best MLB player prop bet.
Bama beaten by Vols
Alabama won’t' be going unbeaten this season after losing a thriller to Hendon Hooker and the Tennessee Volunteers, 52-49. #3 Alabama had been a 7-point favorite against the #6 Vols. Michigan beat Penn State 41-17 in another top-10 battle, while #13 TCU beat #8 Oklahoma State 43-40 in 2OT and #7 USC was another team to suffer a first defeat, losing 43-42 to Utah. FanDuel Sportsbook now has Ohio State at +170 odds for the National Championship, with Georgia at +190 and Alabama out to +450.
