Undefeated Jacobs, Mouat advance to HearingLife Tour Challenge playoffs
Brad Jacobs is heading straight to the HearingLife Tour Challenge playoffs after qualifying undefeated at 3-0 with a 7-5 win over Matt Dunstone on Thursday.
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.
