Overnight Sports Desk by Sportsin60.com

Saturday brought four Division Series openers, and the Chicago White Sox set the tone with a 3-0 win over the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field. Munetaka Murakami hit a two-run homer in the fourth inning, and five Chicago pitchers combined on a three-hitter. The White Sox lead the ALDS 1-0.

The Los Angeles Dodgers topped the Atlanta Braves 5-3 at Dodger Stadium in NLDS Game 1. Tarik Skubal allowed one earned run over six innings in triple-digit heat. Teoscar Hernández, Kyle Tucker, and Max Muncy homered, and Atlanta pulled within two on an Ozzie Albies two-run shot in the ninth before Los Angeles closed it out.

Tampa Bay shut out the New York Yankees 1-0 in ALDS Game 1 at Tropicana Field. Drew Rasmussen gave up one hit over eight innings and struck out 10. Jonathan Aranda's third-inning homer off Gerrit Cole held up as the only run.

The Milwaukee Brewers edged the San Diego Padres 3-2 at American Family Field in a wild NLDS opener. Jackson Chourio tied it with a two-run homer in the third, and William Contreras put Milwaukee ahead with a seventh-inning shot. Ty France's potential go-ahead drive in the ninth struck the roof and dropped into Chourio's glove in fair territory for an out.

No. 7 Alabama routed No. 16 Mississippi State 56-23 in Starkville. Keelon Russell threw for 285 yards and three touchdowns and added a rushing score. The Crimson Tide are 5-0 and have scored 23 or more points in 17 straight games.
