I won’t be recording while watching these next few games, as I want to sit back and enjoy hearing Jack Corrigan talk about the Guardians. I explain why he was the announcer of my youth and still one of my favorite announcers ever. I talk about why it is a bit sad that kids without cable don’t have the chances to watch this baseball team as I had as a kid. In general how baseball has made it harder and harder to watch their sport, and one has to wonder if part of the reason football is so successful is it is also so accessible.

We get into a game the Cleveland Guardians tried their best to give away. We talk about my issues with the lineup. Just in terms of OPS, this team is batting their second and third worst hitters in the top two spots in front of the best hitter in baseball. FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS THAT ARE HOLY CAN WE STOP SLIDING INTO FIRST BASE. How is this still a thing? We talk about the big moments both the successes and failures that lead to this game being closer than it should have been.

We end with a discussion of the three stars of this game, before discussing tomorrow's matchup and why it is the only one that I am nervous about in this series. Then we do a quick check on the wildcard, before discussing the impact of former Guardians coach Matt Blake on the Yankees' runaway American League success.
