Show notes

Yesterday in Sports recaps a championship night and a packed Wednesday across MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, soccer and boxing , beginning with Milwaukee finally reaching the top of baseball. Chris Horwedel breaks down the Brewers’ 4-1 win over Tampa Bay in Game 5 , clinching the first World Series championship in franchise history. Jacob Misiorowski delivers a dominant start, rookie Cooper Pratt makes World Series history and William Contreras earns MVP honors as Milwaukee completes an 11-2 postseason run. The NFL brings another major Indianapolis sell-off, with the 49ers acquiring DeForest Buckner only a day after the Colts sent Quenton Nelson to Seattle. Josh Downs reportedly requests a trade, while Kansas City adds Justin Tucker to its practice squad and creates a potential kicking competition with Harrison Butker. In the NBA, Nikola Jokić records the 200th triple-double of his career , putting Russell Westbrook’s all-time record within reach. Dallas hands Oklahoma City its first loss, Houston becomes the league’s first 5-0 team, Stephen Curry scores 44 and AJ Dybantsa makes his delayed NBA debut. Connor McDavid makes NHL history by recording an assist in his 13th consecutive game to begin the season , breaking a record he previously shared with Wayne Gretzky and others. Seattle, Washington and Colorado also pick up notable wins. The show closes with Liverpool and Manchester City surviving League Cup shootouts, a reported long-term Christian Pulisic extension with AC Milan , and boxing legend Amanda Serrano announcing that her January title defense in Puerto Rico will be the final fight of her career.
