Baseball is down to its final four with two intriguing matchups. The Phillies knocked off the Braves and will now play the Diamondbacks, who steamrolled the Cubs on their way to a Wild Card berth. It’s the Astros and Rangers over in the American League, with Justin Verlander getting the Game 1 start for Houston. Anyone who loves baseball should be rooting for Max Scherzer to start opposite Verlander since the pair started the season as teammates with the Mets.
Scherzer has been dealing with a low-grade muscle strain, but has been pitching simulated games and sounds ready to go.
