Yesterday saw the ALCS get set in stone as the Astros pipped the Twins 3-2 to win that series. That confirms that we will see a battle of Texas when Houston faces off against the Rangers starting this weekend. However, that wasn’t the last action in this year’s Divisional Series matchups.
Over in the National League, there was a pair of crucial Game 3s. One decided who took an important 2-1 lead, and another featured a team playing for their 2023 lives.

(Phillies lead series 2-1)
In the one for the series lead, the Phillies crushed six home runs — including two each from Bryce Harper and Nick Castellanos — as they demolished the Braves to get back with a game of an NLCS trip.
