Show Notes

With the Dodgers winning the National League pennant in a historic game against the Milwaukee Brewers on Dodger Stadium on Friday night — in which Shohei Ohtani went 6 shutout innings, struck out 10, and got the win as a the starting pitcher; and also hit 3 tape-measure home runs — the Dodgers are advancing to the 2025 World Series.
