An otherworldly Game 4 from Shohei Ohtani, who hit three home runs and threw six scoreless innings while striking out 10, gave the Dodgers a sweep of the Brewers on Friday. That leaves one spot left to be filled.
The Mariners can claim it Sunday after they became the first home team to win a game in the ALCS with a 6-2 victory over the Blue Jays in Game 5 on Friday. Trailing 2-1 in the eighth, Seattle tied it on a solo shot from Cal Raleigh before Eugenio Suarez hit a grand slam to give the Mariners a 3-2 edge.
The series returns to Toronto for Game 6 on Sunday. Here’s how to watch all the action:
