Blake Murphy starts things off where last night’s game pretty much ended: Alek Manoah’s nightmare first inning in what was perhaps the toughest start of his career. He brings on Jays producer Chris Black to try to dissect Manoah's mind-boggling season they’ve seen from the team’s supposed ace. In a positive twist, they look at recent plate appearances by Vlad Jr. and why he’s trending up. Blake then welcomes MLB analyst Rob Friedman to shares his story of how he became the infamous "Pitching Ninja", before taking a look around the league at some of the coolest pitches being thrown and the state of Toronto's rotation (28:35). In the second hour, Sportsnet’s own Ben Nicholson-Smith joins Blake to break down what he saw Monday night and what to expect ahead of Manoah's scheduled next start (48:35). To close the show, Astros analyst and World Series champ, Geoff Blum dives a bit deeper into Houston's season so far and what to expect in the final three games at Rogers Centre (01:19:30). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
