Full episode with Garrett Mitchell: On beating the Dodgers, robbing Manny Machado of a home run, hitting meaningful post Via @JeffPassan on X

What happened: Garrett Mitchell took a home run away from Manny Machado during the postseason defeat of the Los Angeles Dodgers. He also hit meaningful postseason home runs himself during the same run.

Why it matters: Removing a home run from Machado changed the math against the Los Angeles Dodgers lineup. Added homers from a defense-first outfielder extended production beyond the middle of the order.

What to watch: The World Series round is next, with lineups and pitching plans to follow.
