but kansas city comes back hard in the fifth --and beat up met's starter jacob degrom who has been almost untouchable in the playoffs.. eric hosmer who drove in the winning run last night drives in the go-ahead runs tonight off degrom.... kansas city roughs up degrom for four runs in the inning and cruise to 7-1 win to take a 2 games to none lead in the series. it's the way we craft the subway chicken & bacon ranch melt that sets it apart. tender, all-white-meat chicken, crispy bacon, monterey cheddar, and cool, creamy ranch, on freshly baked bread. it's irresistible goodness that leads to nothin' but happiness. dear future, please help. the present is kind of a scary place. i have no money, no job, no clothes. i feel completely helpless. but i hear good things about you, future. and books and music. edition of friday night heroes-- we have 15 games on tap with live reports from cedar rapids---where unbeaten kennedy gets off to a great start---and mount vernon--- where there was a double header.. iowa city and waterloo. we begin the night in class a, 8-1 denver begins its playoff run at h

mets feel right at home here are considering the way jacob degrom pitched here last time out. in los angeles, i'm john chandler, news 4 new york. >> all bets are off tonight. a few other sports notes. giants amukamara is out two to four weeks with a torn pectoral muscle. on the ice tonight, rangers are in montreal, islanders host nashville in brooklyn. but of course it's all about one thing tonight. game five and the countdown continues. here is my prediction. i think it will be degrom, syndergaard and i think mets win 3 did 3-2 and advance. >> nice tight game. >> not an easy game to pick because of such great pitching. and it could go into 13 or 14 innings.

the thought was jacob degrom would be the starter. he may will be dealing with his own issues. >> the last couple times out he looks like he could use some time. he has been erratic with his command. that is due to fatigue. it could be anybody. >> as far as everybody else it's starting to set in that the mets are getting ready for what could be the biggest games of their careers. nlcs celebration is over. back to baseball starting today. >> i think i can tell you this morning i had a little extra pep in my step. i was really, really excited to get to the field and run around and do baseball stuff again. >> we could know who the mets the royals and blue jays meet in kansas city. a bp from late this afternoon. kc leads 3-2. a win tonight at home vaults the royals into the world series. if toronto wins there would be a game 7 tomorrow to decide everything. so, we wait for baseball. we have football. we have two darn good nfl rivalry games. the jets, divisional game against the patriots at new england. so many moving parts in this game be
