Open Thread: NL Wild Card Game

By Kate Stanwick
MLB: Atlanta Braves at Washington Nationals Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports

The Blue Jays’ season may be over, but there’s still a month of baseball left to be played.

Tonight we have our first postseason game as the Washington Nationals host the Christian Yelich-less Milwaukee Brewers.

I don’t envy fans of either team. I was an anxious wreck during the wildcard game in 2016.

Here are the lineups for tonight’s game:
