Podcast:Rates & Barrels: A show about Baseball Published On: Mon Oct 20 2025 Description: Eno and DVR discuss the wild path to Monday's Game 7 between the Mariners and Blue Jays after Seattle was unable to close out the series on the road in Game 6. They examine how things might be different in a rematch of the Game 3 starting pitchers with all-hands on deck for the pitching staffs, and a knee injury for George Springer from Game 5. Plus, they dig into the Dodgers' sweep of the Brewers with Shohei Ohtani's unbelievable three-homer game at the plate on top of a 10-strikeout, two-hit effort over six innings on the mound, before looking at the offseason ahead for the Brewers.
