The Houston Astros are OUT, the Chicago White Sox are moving on, and the Philadelphia Phillies just delivered one of the wildest wins of the 2026 MLB Postseason! On this episode of Back to the Bullpen, Brett Chancey and former MLB pitcher and World Series champion Mike Stanton break down a huge night of October baseball. The Astros’ season came crashing to an end at Daikin Park as the White Sox defeated Houston 7-3 to complete a sweep of the AL Wild Card Series.
