Good morning, Sports fans! Davey Mac here with another Sports Report for ya! We’ve got all kinds of scores and news to give ya…but first…
…Legendary baseball announcer and all-around sportscaster Bob Costas is getting destroyed online for what some are calling a very lackluster performance in this year’s MLB Postseason.

Bob has been broadcasting the Diamondbacks – Dodgers series and viewers are feeling that the announcer’s time has passed. Check out the five clips below and decide for yourself.
1.) No energy for this big, postseason home run…
2.) Discussing Cubs and A’s…two teams who weren’t playing last night…
3.) Not a life with this call, either…maybe he doesn’t like the Diamondbacks?
4.) Weird criticism for a guy who successfully stole a base on a timing play…
5.) And…once again…no energy…
Bob Costas wanted the Dodgers to win tonight so bad. Absolutely 0 energy on any of these highlights lol

Hey, Bob was good back in the day…but maybe he needs a nap before doing the game. He sounds a little tired! I’m Davey Mac…that’s my two cents! Now on to the Scoreboard!
MLB Postseason: Phillies Beat Braves In Game 3
The MLB Postseason is in full stride…and the Phillies are now just a game away from making it back to the National League Championship Series as the Phils crushed the Braves yesterday…10 to 2. Phillie superstars Bryce Harper and Nick Castellanos each slugged two home runs in the game…as the Phils look to beat Atlanta today at 8 PM (EST).

Astros Defeat Twins To Advance
Meanwhile, the Astros took down the Twins last night…3 to 2…as Houston wins that series, 3 games to 1. Once again…Houston will be in the American League Championship Series. Annoying!

D-Backs Sweep Dodgers
And then the big shocker…the Arizona Diamondbacks swept the L.A. Dodgers with their 4 to 2 victory last night. The D-Backs will now head to the NLCS and the Dodgers are eliminated.

Saleh Says Jets Will Be Ready For 'Tush Push'
Jets head coach Robert Saleh said to the press yesterday that the Jets will be ready for the Eagles’ now-famous quarterback sneak called the “Tush Push.” That’s where essentially the whole Eagles offense pushing qb Jalen Hurts over the line…and it’s legal.
