Two game-163s for the first time in MLB history; Dodgers and Brewers clinch

Playoffs kicked off this week, fields are set and the hunt for November is on.

The Dodgers and Rockies partook in a game 163 to decide the winner of the NL West, with the Dodgers coming out on top and clinching their sixth straight division title. The Dodgers were able to secure a 5-2 victory, scoring all five of their runs in the 4th, 5th and 6th inning. The Rockies’ stars tried to bring them back with late-game heroics, as Nolan Arenado and Trevor Story both hit home-runs in the 9th inning.
