White Sox look to close out Houston Astros in two games after dominant playoff opener
I've made a case in the past that it seems a bit unfair that you play 162 games only to have one postseason series given to you, and it's a best-of-three. I feel like there should be a minimum of five games for any playoff series. I understand travel concerns and other issues for this opening round, but it just feels too short. The only argument in favor would be that most regular-season series are three games; however, winning two of three in the regular season doesn't mean much. This afternoon, the White Sox look to close out the Astros in two games.
The Chicago White Sox, a team that had lost 100 or more games in each of the past three seasons, made the postseason this year. In fact, they've lost 324 games combined over the previous three seasons. Being in the playoffs should feel like an accomplishment, but winning a series would be even more impressive. They are on the verge of doing just that after a 6-3 victory over the Astros yesterday. The question now is if they can close it out against a team with significantly more experience than Chicago.
Looking to give them that final game they need is Sean Burke. For the season, Burke went 11-7, posting a 3.34 ERA and a 1.20 WHIP. He also threw 185 strikeouts, and all of his numbers were first or better in the league. That means that he really should be considered an elite starter. Burke has been better on the road this season with a 2.58 ERA compared to a 3.86 home ERA. He faced Houston twice this season and allowed two earned runs over 11.2 innings of work.
The Houston Astros were average this season, finishing at 81-81, and as a reward for winning the American League West, they got to host a series. It is probably my least favorite thing about the playoffs in general. In the opening game, they sent eight different pitchers to the mound. They had to use two pitchers and 49 pitches just to get through the first inning. The Astros gave up five runs before they scored themselves in the bottom of the fifth. It should be interesting to see how they use the bullpen today with so many having to work yesterday.

That means the biggest role in this game falls on the Astros' Ace, Hunter Brown. For the season, Brown went 6-4 with a 3.19 ERA and a 1.27 WHIP. He only pitched 107.1 innings this season, but he held hitters to a .208 batting average. At home, he was solid with a 3.27 ERA. He also turned in a great September, going 26.1 innings and allowing just eight earned runs. Brown did face the White Sox twice this season, and he allowed just two earned runs over 13 innings.
This game should be a bit more difficult for both teams given the quality of starters on the mound. The Astros have home-field advantage, and Brown has experience in big games. Burke doesn't, and that is a bit of a concern. However, the White Sox are playing better baseball, and the Astros really don't even deserve to be here. I think this game is likely to go under 7.5 runs, but I also think Chicago wins. I'll split a unit on the two plays.

WWE NXT star EK Prosper hits jaw-dropping move on Grayson Waller but fails to win championship
WWE NXT star EK Prosper went above and beyond to try to capture the NXT Championship from Grayson Waller as he answered the open challenge on Tuesday.
Prosper showed off his high-flying abilities during the match. He had Waller propped on the announce table and was looking to pull off something attention-worthy. He did that and then some.

Prosper bounced up to the middle rope, parallel to a sprawled out Waller, and backflipped onto his opponent. The crowd at the WWE Performance Center went wild.
But Waller would show why he’s the savvy veteran of the NXT roster and why he’s the champion. He pulled himself up by his bootstraps, brushed himself off and got back in the ring.
Waller hit the Waller Effect and pinned Prosper to retain the title. Even as Prosper’s moment went viral across social media, all Waller could do was lock in and retain the title.

Waller has held the title for about a month since he won it in a fatal four-way match at Heatwave back in August. He outlasted Tony D’Angelo, Cruz Montana and Zilla Fatu in that match.
The Australian superstar was initially set to take on Mason Rook for the title. Rook said earlier Tuesday he wasn’t medically cleared for the match and took his name out of the hat.
Shawm Michaels, the senior vice president of talent development and creative for NXT, announced there would be an open challenge for the NXT Championship. In a video posted to social media, Michaels had initially hoped A.J. Styles or CM Punk would answer the call.
Regardless, it was Prosper who answered the challenge and put up a fight against Waller.
Lindsay Clancy holdout juror’s lawyers say they plan bar complaint against Reddington
PLYMOUTH, Mass. — Two attorneys for the lone holdout juror in the mistrial of Massachusetts woman Lindsay Clancy in the strangling deaths of her three young children say they plan to file a bar complaint against the 36-year-old's defense lawyer over his treatment of their client.
"I can tell you, we're gonna file a bar complaint," attorney Tyler Cox told Fox News' Sean Hannity on his namesake show Tuesday evening.
Kevin Reddington, a veteran Massachusetts defense lawyer, said in court Tuesday that he was fed up with being accused of "persecuting" the holdout, who was the only man on the 12-person jury who wanted to find Clancy guilty.
ATTORNEY FOR LONE HOLDOUT JUROR IN LINDSAY CLANCY MISTRIAL PUSHES BACK ON CLAIMS OF REFUSING THE LAW
"He said that all he's done is file a motion," Cox said. "Well, even if you take that as true, which it obviously isn't, the motion that he filed was unprecedented. You don't attack jurors this way, you don't single them out, and we're going to file a bar complaint."
Plymouth County prosecutors have separately asked the court for a gag order, accusing Reddington of helping expose the holdout's identity to the public, accusing him of robbing the other jurors of their time and of robbing Clancy of an acquittal.

"In the same instances, defense counsel praised the foreperson as courageous and the jurors, minus one, were so attentive, so beautiful, so wonderful," assistant Plymouth County District Attorneys Jennifer Sprague and Shanan Buckingham wrote.

"Under the caselaw and ethical rules, limitations on lawyers' speech is aimed at two principal evils: comments that are likely to influence the actual outcome of the trial and comments that are likely to prejudice the jury venire," they added.

Reddington has also taken to calling the holdout juror "the obstructionist" and spent the early part of the week trading barbs with another attorney for the juror, Edward Paltzik.

Clancy is due back in court on Nov. 2 for a motion hearing. Timing for a potential retrial remains unclear, and no date has been set after both sides told Judge William Sullivan they needed more time.
WNBA refs miss opportunity to eject A'ja Wilson over meltdown, entering stands
Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson only received a technical foul on Tuesday night when she stepped across the baseline and went a few rows deep to address an Indiana Fever fan.
The incident occurred in the fourth quarter of the Aces’ Game 2 loss to the Fever at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Wilson drew a blocking foul after Sophie Cunningham stepped in front of her and fell to the court. Cunningham was upset with the call, meanwhile, Wilson was seen yelling and pointing at a fan a few rows from courtside.
THE CRAIG CARTON SHOW–UNFILTERED, UNAPOLOGETIC AND UNMISSABLE. DOWNLOAD HIS DAILY PODCAST NOW!
The broadcast showed Wilson taking a few steps into the stands. Crew chief Randy Richardson was asked by a pool reporter about the incident.
"So, at that point, A’ja Wilson was assessed a technical foul for unsportsmanlike conduct," Richardson told the reporter when asked what happened with the incident.
When asked, "Why did A’ja Wilson receive a tech for her interaction with the fan on the baseline," Richardson responded, "For unsportsmanlike conduct."
Wilson finished the game, but it appeared the incident may have warranted an ejection.
The league considers the stands the first row of seats. Wilson didn’t climb over anyone to get to the fan she had an issue with, but, on the baseline, she didn’t need to.
"Any coach, player, or trainer who deliberately enters the spectator stands during the game will be automatically ejected and the incident reported via e-mail to the Commissioner," the rulebook states.
OutKick asked the WNBA and National Basketball Referees Association for comment on why Wilson’s action didn’t warrant an ejection. OutKick also asked the WNBA if it would review the incident further.
The Fever released a statement on the incident.
"Following a report of a comment directed toward a player, arena security spoke with the fan involved and witnesses," the team said. "Security determined there was no violation of the Fan Code of Conduct, the fan was not removed from the arena. We consider the matter closed."
Wilson addressed the confrontation after the game.
"If I see a man, come at me, taking steps toward me and point at me, I don’t give a damn what you said, I don’t give a damn how you said it, the tone, that is unacceptable," she said. "You don’t step toward me and point at me. I’m not for that s--- at all.
"That’s unacceptable and how he gets back in the game because they said he didn’t know anything, of course he didn’t, and that’s fine. And I apologized to my team because I got us a tech and I didn’t … but there’s certain things I’m just not gonna allow anymore because it’s just unacceptable. You don’t know me at all to come and step toward me and point at me and say anything."
A fan sitting next to the man in question later told OutKick that the man only said the foul was on Wilson and pointed at her.
As the WNBA has grown more popular, the scrutiny over officiating in the league has come under the microscope and this season was no different.

WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert said last summer the league was going to evolve terms of its officiating. The league formed an offseason officiating task force that included an effort to clean up some of the WNBA’s issues regarding physicality and officiating.
Minnesota Lynx head coach Cheryl Reeve, who blasted officials during last year’s WNBA Finals, said in the beginning of the 2026 season that coaches weren’t looking for referees to call marginal fouls.
New York Liberty star Breanna Stewart and Dallas Wings rookie Azzi Fudd also talked about the fouls. Stewart was annoyed that a game against the Washington Mystics earlier in the year took nearly three hours to complete. Fudd was dismayed about being unable to be physical with opponents.
Fever star Caitlin Clark went as far as to call for full-time WNBA referees as she racked up technical fouls this season that nearly cost her a game.
"It's kind of been a discussion for three years now, and I think we really need to do a better job protecting the people in this league," she said in July. "I've been involved in a few of those plays, but there's been plenty of others across the league that haven't been called. You go back postgame or whatever it is, teams submit clips and nothing changes. I think overall the league has to do better."
"Overall, the league just has to do better and we have to invest in those areas," she added. "The technology can get better. We can treat the referees a little bit better. Pay them like they're full-time employees."
With the rules already in place, one has to wonder why Wilson wasn’t ejected from Tuesday night’s game.

GOP fortress is under threat in one key red state, and these voters could decide whether it falls
DALLAS — A competitive Senate race is testing whether Texas is still safely red, with Black and Hispanic voters at the center of Democrat James Talarico's path to victory.
Talarico is seeking to become the first Democrat in more than 30 years to win a statewide race in the Lone Star State.
"I definitely do think, if there’s any time for Texas to get a Democrat elected, this is the time to strike," Mike, a military veteran from Dallas, told Fox News Digital. "I think it depends on whether the Black and Brown voters come out for Talarico."
POLL: TALARICO TIES PAXTON IN TEXAS SENATE RACE, THREATENING GOP STRONGHOLD
"Everyone says, ‘Hey, we are Texas and we want change here, we want change there,’" Mike added. "Well, this is an opportunity for you guys to get change. Are you going to come out and show up at the polls? He’s got all the momentum in the world. He’s got everything going for him."
Mike’s comments reflect the challenge facing Talarico as he works to build support among Black and Hispanic voters and motivate them to turn out in November.
Texas has more Black eligible voters than any other state, with roughly 2.7 million. That puts voters in Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth and East Texas in a potentially decisive position in any Democrat’s bid to win statewide.
Former President Barack Obama’s appearance with Talarico at a May campaign stop in Austin underscored the stakes for Democrats to leverage a massive voting bloc in Texas. The party's effort to win over Black voters could help determine whether Texas remains reliably red or becomes more competitive for Democrats in future elections.
TEXAS VOTERS HAVE PLENTY TO SAY ABOUT WHETHER LONE STAR STATE COULD TURN BLUE
But Talarico faces an uphill battle in uniting Democrats behind his campaign after a divisive primary against Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas. Talarico defeated Crockett in the Democratic primary earlier this year, and the outgoing congresswoman has not endorsed his Senate campaign.
Crockett has said she supports the Democratic ticket in Texas, but her political action committee has not endorsed Talarico or campaigned for him.
Rashaun, of Forney, Texas, said the primary loss may have left some Black voters frustrated.
"Everyone was behind Jasmine," Rashaun said. "So that’s what’s blocking, I’m going to say for my people, that was blocking their minds."
Still, Rashaun said she plans to vote for Talarico and hopes Texas will turn blue in November.
"Yes, we are voting in November and it’s going to be Talarico," she said. "We need Texas to flip. We can wish and hope and pray. But we need to get out and vote."
TEXAS VOTERS HAVE PLENTY TO SAY ABOUT WHETHER LONE STAR STATE COULD TURN BLUE
Mike said the election may ultimately come down to whether voters are willing to act.
"Right now it is on the Texas voters to get out and support James Talarico or sit at home if you don’t want to see that change," he said.
Bryant, of Coppell, Texas, likewise pointed to frustration with Gov. Greg Abbott and Attorney General Ken Paxton, both Republicans, as a potential motivator for people to support Talarico's candidacy.
"This is a critical election," Bryant said. "I think we all can feel it in Texas, the need to get Greg Abbott out."
REPUBLICANS JUST GOT A POWERFUL NEW PLAYBOOK FOR THE BATTLE FOR CONGRESS. HERE'S WHAT'S INSIDE
"It’s time for a change," he added. "Plus, on the other side, you see how bad Ken Paxton is and his track record and just some of the things that he’s done. It’s no longer working and we need to do something different."
Ava, a college student from Denton, said Talarico’s outreach to younger voters has helped him connect with a generation that often feels overlooked.
"I do think he’s going to pull through," she said. "He engages with the younger community, which is important because we feel like we’re not represented."
She added that his social media presence has also helped younger voters connect with his campaign. She first learned about Talarico after meeting him at the Texas State Fair last year and later followed him online.
"I think he’s going to flip the state."
While Ava focused on Talarico’s appeal among younger voters, Kiara, of Dallas, said supporters must turn that enthusiasm into votes.
"I live in Texas, and I’ve been here for a really long time, and it’s time for a change, a positive change," she said. "And I think Talarico is definitely going to bring that."
"We just have to vote," Kiara added. "We can’t complain about the problems if you don’t want to vote to fix them."
Florida judge rips into mom accused of leaving 4 children at home to go on 3-day cruise
A Florida mother is facing four felony charges after allegedly abandoning her four young children — including a 2-month-old infant — to take a three-day vacation on a cruise ship to the Bahamas.
Nathalie Belizaire, 29, was charged with four counts of child neglect after she boarded Carnival Cruise Line’s Carnival Conquest, leaving her children unattended in her North Miami Beach residence. Police said U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers took her into custody Monday as she disembarked.
"You cannot make this up," Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Mindy Glazer said in Tuesday court footage. "We are just grateful nothing worse happened to those kids.
"Who leaves four little kids alone to go on a cruise?
"The poor kids were home alone."
The children were discovered by police Saturday, the day after the ship set sail. Bodycam footage showed four kids coming out of hiding in a bathroom – a 2-year-old toddler, a pre-teen and what appeared to be a teenage girl holding a newborn baby.
Lether Bazile, the father of the 2-month-old, told police that Belizaire claimed she was leaving the children with their great-grandmother, the New York Post reported.
BABYSITTER ACCUSED OF KIDNAPPING TWO YOUNG SISTERS WAS PREVIOUSLY CHARGED WITH ABDUCTING NEWBORN
The father was tipped off by the mother's absence by Belizaire’s WhatsApp story two days earlier that appeared to show a Carnival Cruise Line ticket, he told police.
When Bazile stopped by Belizaire's home, he saw the television glowing through the blinds and heard the children's voices inside.
He immediately called the police, who entered the home and found the four children hiding in a bathroom with no adult present.
According to authorities, the children's grandmother, Denise Wilkes, told officers that Belizaire had promised to drop the kids off but never showed up. Furthermore, Belizaire’s brother, Steven Borgella, informed police that his sister had texted him at 8 p.m. ET on the day the children were found, asking him to check in on them.
Belizaire was arrested Monday as she disembarked the vessel at the port in Miami. She declined to speak to officers.
During the Tuesday hearing, Belizaire’s defense attorney argued that her abandoning the children to go on vacation was "just an allegation at this time," noting that she denies the claims.
"At this time, it is only an allegation; she denies the allegation," the defense attorney said.
"Of course she does," Glazer said as the accused showed exasperation.
"They arrested her disembarking from the cruise ship!" the judge then shot back.
TWO MISSING CHILDREN RESCUED FROM TRAILER AS POLICE ARREST BABYSITTER ON KIDNAPPING CHARGES
"I understand that, judge, I understand that," the attorney replied. "The question is who was the one responsible for the children at the time?"
Glazer thought for a second, before saying, "usually it's the mother, the person that gave birth to them."
"There are also others responsible, it's not just mothers," the defense attorney replied. "It's not just mothers that are in charge of children, judge. It's also fathers and grandparents and other people."
"See, the mothers always know who their children are," Glazer said. "Fathers may not know, but it looks like different fathers here. One of the fathers grew concerned and called the police."
Belizaire was given a stay away order until the Department of Children and Families can investigate. She faces four felony counts of child neglect without great bodily harm. Bond was set at $10,000, $2,500 per child.
This recent arrest is not Belizaire's first run-in with the law. She previously faced aggravated battery charges in January 2025 after allegedly pepper-spraying a neighbor in the face during a dispute regarding her daughter, the Post reported.
Ole Miss students' toxicology reports completed, official says
The toxicology reports for two Ole Miss students who died on Sept. 21 has been completed, an official tells Fox News Digital.
Ole Miss students Aidan Hamilton, 18, and Robert Strang, 20, were found dead on Sept. 21, both with similar packages of kratom or synthetic kratom found to be in their possession, according to the court documents. Officials detailed that Hamilton "could have died due to a Pulmonary Edema," which would be consistent with a drug overdose. Strang was found "cold to the touch" when first responders arrived at his house near campus.
Alex Gibert, press secretary for the Mississippi Department of Public Safety, told Fox News Digital that the toxicology report for Strang and Hamilton has been completed. The findings will be handed over to the Lafayette County coroner and shared with the families.
The news comes as the American Kratom Association is set to host a news conference on Wednesday, criticizing the "delay in publicly identifying the specific products purchased by two Ole Miss students before their deaths."
The group says these tablets "are not natural kratom leaf and that students should have been specifically warned about these products under investigation."
Packaging on the kratom items found near both men were labeled "Smax, Pseudo-DHM" tablets, which is a "Kratom like substance at gas stations or tobacco shops" that people buy for the "narcotic like effect," according to the court documents.

Hamilton made several purchases in September at Puffs Vape, Tobacco and Beer Store in Oxford, where workers Yahya Mohamed Mosleh, 51, and Islam Mohamed, 18, were arrested and face a charge of possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute. Officials did not say in the court documents that the kratom found near him when he died came from that store. One of the purchases was made one day before Hamilton was found dead.
LISTEN TO THE NEW 'CRIME & JUSTICE WITH DONNA ROTUNNO' PODCAST
One hour after finding Hamilton dead, police were dispatched to a house near campus and found Strang dead. A package of the "Smax, Pseudo-DHM" tablets was found on his nightstand, along with 20 to 30 nitrous oxide cans, known as "whippets," which Strang's roommates said he used daily. Strang's roommates told officers that he was watching football and took a Xanax bar the day before being found dead.
Officials said the synthetic kratom-derived product Strang had bought was purchased at a gas station about 30 minutes away from Oxford.
The precise role kratom played in the deaths of Hamilton and Strang has not yet been determined.
Caesars Sportsbook Promo Code FOXNEWSDYW Unlocks 10x 100% Profit Boosts When Betting $1 on MLB
Game 1s were fantastic on Tuesday, and now we have four Game 2s on Wednesday for the MLB Playoffs. Caesars Sportsbook is looking to make the action more exciting for you with promo code FOXNEWSDYW, giving you 10 profit boost bets of 100%.
The first game of the day is between the Phillies and Braves. Philadelphia is sending out Cristopher Sanchez to save their season. He has put together a great campaign, and now the team needs him to keep them alive with a win today. Tyler Mahle is going for the Braves, and he has pitched very well over the past three months.
Sean Burke and Hunter Brown go in the second game of the White Sox vs. Astros series. The White Sox took the opener, and the Astros used many arms from their bullpen. They will need Brown to be the Ace of the rotation that he is if they have any hope of extending this series.
The Red Sox need a big win, and they are getting their best pitcher to take the mound in Sonny Gray. This has been a fantastic season from Gray, and he was the lone bright spot in a terrible start for Boston. Max Fried is going for the Yankees, and he has struggled in the postseason over his career, but the Yankees offense looked great yesterday, so it may not matter.
This series may be over fast, as the Cubs, who have struggled for about a month, looked completely overmatched last night. The Padres jumped out to an early lead and hit as many homers yesterday as the Cubs had hits for the game. Chicago turns to Kevin Gausman, a guy with a lot of success in his career, to take on Nick Pivetta.
With four great games to choose from, and desperation from half of the teams, this is can’t-miss baseball. New users can take advantage of promo code FOXNEWSDYW to earn 10x 100% profit boost bonus bets when betting $1 on today’s MLB games.
Underdog Promo Code FOXNEWS: $1k Deposit Match for New Users Ahead of Game 2 of the MLB Wild Card Series
Day 1 of the MLB Playoffs has come and gone, but we are still in action with all four series going once again today. Underdog is offering new users a chance to get up to a $1,000 deposit match to use on any Game 2 when using promo code FOXNEWS.
There are four games today, starting at 2:00 ET. The first game is between the Phillies and Braves, with Atlanta up 1-0 in the series. These series are all three games, so the Braves need just one more win to advance. Yesterday was a back-and-forth battle, and the Braves took over for good on a homer in the bottom of the 8th.
Next up for the day is the White Sox taking on the Astros. Chicago took the opener, and the best part for them might be that the Houston bullpen was used frequently yesterday. The Astros sent seven different pitchers to the mound, and now they may be tired. The White Sox are up 1-0 and can close out the series with a win over Hunter Brown this afternoon.
The Red Sox take on the Yankees in Game 2 of their series. In Game 1, we saw Cam Schlittler look like the Cy Young Award winner that he will soon become. It was a tight game until the seventh inning, when the Yankees pulled away. Ben Rice was fantastic for the Yankees, going 4-for-5 with two homers and six RBI.
The final game of the evening was between the Cubs and the Padres. It was no contest, as the Cubs’ offense didn’t show up, and the bad pitching they’ve had for the majority of the season was still there. The Padres hit two homers in the first inning and never looked back. The Chicago offense mustered just three hits in the game, and the Padres had three homers.
With four great games to choose from, Underdog’s offer couldn’t come at a better time. New users can use promo code FOXNEWS to enjoy up to a $1,000 deposit match from Underdog.
