Gibson and other participants share their memories of what led up to his dramatic walk-off blast 30 years ago.

After a rough Game 1 performance, Yasmani Grandal has been kept out of the Dodgers' starting lineup for Game 2 of the NLCS against the Brewers.

The high-stakes series is sure to deliver from the start, with the defending champs pitting Justin Verlander against Chris Sale in Game 1.

Two years ago, the Brewers and Dodgers almost swapped Ryan Braun for Yasiel Puig, but the nontrade has worked out well for everyone.

As ugly as the Dodgers' opening-game loss was in the NLCS, there were plenty of reasons to think things should be looking up.

Astros pitcher Justin Verlander, coming off one of the best regular seasons of his 14-year career, said he has "no set number" of seasons left to go. "Just keep pitching," he said.

The Red Sox will try to seize an initial lead over the Astros in the AL's clash of titans, while L.A. tries to tie things up in Milwaukee.

The Brewers ran their winning streak to 12 games with Friday night's 6-5 victory over the Dodgers in Game 1 of the NLCS. That means Wisconsin restaurant chain George Webb will reward fans with free hamburgers next week.

The Astros have added relievers Hector Rondon and Joe Smith to their roster for the ALCS, while Myles Straw and Will Harris will not be active against the Red Sox.

With 108 wins, the Red Sox clearly have something going, but the Astros' starting pitching, bullpen and lineup will be very tough to beat.

Yankees shortstop Didi Gregorius injured his elbow during the ALDS and will have Tommy John surgery. Manager Aaron Boone said he is optimistic Gregorius will be back at some point in the 2019 season.
