Description

Jared, Dallas, and Joey are back for episode three to discuss an eventful beginning to the week for Major League Baseball. Of course, the story on everyone's mind is Clayton Kershaw being pulled after seven perfect innings against the Twins. Dallas describes his reaction when he saw that Kershaw wasn't on the mound for the 8th inning and discusses the long term impact that throwing a perfect game could have on a team, its fans and the game of baseball, but also factors in the importance of winning and staying healthy into a manager's decision to pull a pitcher in this situation. But first, Jared reacts to John Sterling's botched home run call and insists that the baseball Gods must be on his side for him to have heard it live on the radio. The guys also break down Brett Phillips' pitching performance and Dallas's call of his incredible catch as well as Phillips hitting his longest and hardest hit home run after receiving a good-luck bracelet from a girl who is battling cancer for the second time. We also touch on the video that went viral of Alec Bohm saying he hates Philadelphia, the Cleveland Guardians' consistently ridiculous offense, the situation with Gabe Kapler, an ejection during the Padres/Giants game that led to the first female coach to ever step on a field during a MLB game, and Albert Pujols hitting his first home run as a Cardinal since 2011 and whether he is actually the age that he says he is. Enjoy!
