VEB Open Thread - Wild Card Wednesday, 10/06/21

Good morning! The day is finally here. Wild Card Wednesday! In yesterday’s American League Wild Card Game, the Red Sox defeated the Yankees by a 6-2 final score. Yankees starter Gerrit Cole pitched into the third inning but was pulled in the inning after a leadoff blast from Kyle Schwarber, followed by a walk and a base hit. Cole’s final line: 2 IP, 4 H, 3 ER, 2 BB, 3K. On the other side, Nathan Eovaldi turned in 5 13 innings of one-run ball, punching out eight along the way. One of Eovaldi’s only mistakes of the night being an Anthony Rizzo solo homer.
