In last night's sports action, Champions League soccer rolled on with eight games while 26 MLB teams took the field as the season begins to wind down.

Just last night, Cristiano Ronaldo also scored three goals, creating a bit of a competitive rivalry between the two superstar players. Meanwhile, as MLB teams prepare for the playoffs, action was relatively tame, but the Milwaukee Brewers picked up a 7-0 shutout on the back of Tyler Thornburg's performance on the mound.
