Pete Alonso was one of the heroes of Major League Baseball's Wild Card Series round, hitting a three-run homer in the ninth inning on Thursday night to lift his New York Mets over the Milwaukee Brewers for the series win. It was a legacy-defining moment for a slugger scheduled to become a free agent this offseason. Now it's time to see who stars in the Division Series. The best-of-five round starts on Saturday, featuring series between the Royals/Yankees, Tigers/Guardians, Mets/Phillies and Padres/Dodgers. The four winners advance to the League Championship Series that begin Oct. 13.
