my older brother went to cornell, i did not go to cornell . perhaps there' s some truth to it. turning to sports, after two games on the road, the bruins are back on their home ice tonight. erin: they host the flyers tonight at 8:00. the b' s have 3 wins and 2 losses so far on the season. sean: looks like the storybook may not be happening. the chicago cubs and new york mets faced off last night in game 3 of the national league championship series. in the daniel murphy hit a home third, run to give the mets a 2-1 lead. murphy has hit a homer in five straight postseason games. the mets went on to win it 5-2. they now lead the series three games to none and they could sweep the cubs tonight when the teams go head-to-head in game 4. erin: now to the american league championship series. the toronto blue jays played game 4 at the kansas city royals last night. the royals hit 4 runs in the first inning setting a new alcs , record. and they kept that momentum going. kansas city won the game 14-2
