Today's trends feature MLB Wild Card Series updates, including roster changes and game results, plus WNBA playoff highlights and entertainment news.

The MLB Wild Card Series generated significant search interest, with multiple stories emerging. The Boston Red Sox added pitcher Garrett Crochet to their wild-card roster against the New York Yankees, and Crochet stated he 'will go until they take the ball from me,' according to search trends. However, the Red Sox suffered a setback as rookie Roman Anthony was ruled out of the AL Wild Card Series with a hand injury, as reported in trending searches. In the National League, the Chicago Cubs and San Diego Padres are facing off in their Wild Card Series. In Game 1, the Padres defeated the Cubs behind a leadoff home run by Fernando Tatis Jr. and a strong pitching performance by Michael King, according to search trends. Game 2 is scheduled to be broadcast live on Peacock and NBCSN.

The New York Yankees made headlines with their decision to bench Jazz Chisholm Jr. for Game 1 against the Red Sox. Manager Aaron Boone revealed he sent a text to Chisholm informing him he would not start, and Chisholm's reaction was a topic of discussion. The Athletic reported that Boone also mentioned Anthony Volpe's status as 'very much in play.' These moves come as the Yankees aim to advance in the postseason.

In the WNBA, Veronica Burton has become a trending topic after her performance with the Golden State Valkyries. Search trends highlight her journey from being cast off by the Dallas Wings to becoming a star, with the Wings' decision to let her go taking on new meaning as they face a first-round sweep. Burton's success and the Valkyries' team chemistry have drawn attention.

Entertainment news also appeared in the trends. Ali Krieger, former soccer player and current contestant on 'The Amazing Race,' sparked interest about her love life, with searches focusing on her girlfriend. Additionally, Spike Lee was involved in a fan altercation before the Yankees-Red Sox Game 2, according to search trends. Lee is also promoting his Playback fest in November, which will feature Questlove, John Turturro, and others, and he will co-host a watch party in Brooklyn.

Finally, a local story from Tennessee trended: a Tennessee county was named the best in the state to raise a family, and it also ranks among the top in the US. The specific county was not named in the search snippets, but the story highlights family-friendly attributes.
