October 15, 2022 was highlighted by the Astros’ Game 3 victory to complete a sweep of Seattle in a 18-inning thriller, thanks to Jeremy Peña’s GW-HR. The Padres and Phillies both eliminated their division rivals, as San Diego defeated the 111-win Dodgers and Philly eviscerated the reigning champion Braves. Cleveland continued the trend of upsets, as Oscar Gonzalez collected his second walk-off hit of the postseason. The Warriors extended Jordan Poole (4y/$123M) and Andrew Wiggins (4y/$109M) which will massively increase their luxury tax in 2023-24.
