The other ALDS is also an actual division series with Drew Rasmussen and the Tampa Bay Rays hosting Gerrit Cole and the New York Yankees.Saturday ends with Robbie Ray and the San Diego Padres on the road to face likely NL Cy Young Award winner Jacob Misiorowski and the Milwaukee Brewers at Miller Park.Fox Sports has the NL playoffs this year, with TBS televising the AL side.After Saturday, there’s one more chance for a day with four postseason baseball games.
