Maple Leafs’ Robertson nets fourth goal of pre-season vs. Red Wings
Watch as Toronto Maple Leafs’ Nick Robertson stays hot in the pre-season, scoring the team’s fourth straight goal against the Red Wings.
MILWAUKEE — Pete Alonso hit a go-ahead, three-run homer off closer Devin Williams in the ninth inning and the New York Mets defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 4-2 on Thursday night to win their NL Wild Card Series.
The Mets’ comeback victory in the decisive Game 3 gave them their first playoff series win since claiming the NL pennant in 2015. They advance to a Division Series beginning Saturday at rival Philadelphia against the NL East champion Phillies.
New York went 6-7 against the Phillies during the regular season and finished six games behind them in the NL East standings.
The Brewers, making their sixth playoff appearance in the last seven years, still haven’t won a postseason series since reaching Game 7 of the NL Championship Series in 2018.
This series loss will be particularly painful.
