Eno and DVR discuss Game 2 fallout from both NLDS series, where the Dodgers turned an excellent start from Blake Snell and a four-run seventh inning into a 4-3 win to take a 2-0 series lead. They also wonder why the Phillies stuck with their plan to bunt trailing by one with the game-tying run at second base in the ninth inning (and no outs!) and look at the Dodgers' effective use of the Wheel Play. Plus, they discuss the Brewers' three-homer barrage in Milwaukee, a three-inning relief appearance from effectively wild Jacob Misiorowski, and a few non-playoff considerations with teams facing several arbitration raises this winter.
