Rise and Phight: 10/4/23

Ah yes, Red October is indeed back and Tuesday night did not disappoint. Zack Wheeler was simply phenomenal and the bats did their job. Jose Alvarado looked as dominant as ever, while Jeff Hoffman and Craig Kimbrel slammed the door.

Braxton Garrett vs. Aaron Nola is set for tonight’s win and advance game for the Phillies. The fish are looking to keep their season alive, however the Phillies handle Garrett well.

Don’t expect the Marlins to go down without a fight, they’re a stingy group. Let’s take a look at today’s links.
