Hour 1
The Yankees are on the brink of elimination as they are now down 3-0. Giancarlo Stanton was thrown out at the plate and Boomer didn’t think they should send him since he can’t run. Gio likes that they sent him as they weren’t getting many hits and it took a perfect throw to get him. The Dodgers are getting great starting pitching, the Yankees are not. The Yankees are striking out a ton. This is a do or die game tonight and Gerrit Cole is not pitching, Luis Gil is. Gio said the Yankees can’t beat a great team like the Dodgers with Aaron Judge being a zero. There was also a very odd Fat Joe performance before the game. It just didn’t end. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with the sounds of John Sterling calling the first inning HR by Freddie Freeman. We also heard Sterling on the call as Stanton was thrown out at the plate. The Giants also played last night and lost in Pittsburgh. Brian Daboll was intense last night in trying to bring the energy to a flatliner (Daniel Jones). In the final segment of the hour, we took calls from concerned Yankees fans. Boomer said pitchers must be intimidated by the size of Ohtani.
Hour 2
Boomer wonders why Garrett Wilson always goes down when he makes a catch. How is it that the Jets are favored Thursday night against the Texans, who are 6-2. Jets are favored by 1.5 which seems crazy. The Giants lost again last night and they are now 2-6. They still make a lot of conservative play calls for a team that has nothing to lose at this point. Who is going to be the Giants quarterback next year and how are they getting that guy? Why are they more competitive on the road, but can’t do anything at home? Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of the Yankees losing to the Dodgers. Giancarlo Stanton talked about getting thrown out at the plate. Gio said Ken Rosenthal is starting to look like Bruce Springsteen if he was shrunk in the dryer. The Giants tried a 2-point conversion and it was embarrassing. Daboll talked about the TJ Watt strip sack of Jones. Bill Belichick took more shots at the Jets with McAfee yesterday. Jerry has audio of the Knicks postgame after their loss to the Cavaliers. In the final segment of the hour, the Mets were at least competitive against the Dodgers. The Dodgers offense is relentless throughout the entire lineup. Boomer thought the Yankees would be putting up more runs but they are striking out a ton.
Hour 3
Fans going to the game tonight probably bought tickets for ridiculous prices and you may have paid to watch your team get eliminated. Boomer is feeling bombarded by political ads and was appreciating all the joy the Yankees brought us to get us away from politics. Game 1 was a great game but these last two games have felt like Godfather 3 according to Gio. It’s a flat World Series unless you’re a Dodgers fan. Gio now thinks they’re getting swept. The Yankees are favored again tonight as they were last night. Boomer keeps saying it’s not over yet. Boomer said if they get swept, somebody is losing their job (Boone or Cashman it sounds like). Jerry returns for an update and starts with Suzyn Waldman talking about Fat Joe. David Ortiz said it felt like a funeral even as they were introducing Fat Joe. Gio called the series, ‘a fart in the wind so far’. The Giants lost again, this time in Pittsburgh. Trevon Diggs was on a podcast with Micah Parsons explaining why he dropped a ‘deez nuts’ on a reporter. In the final segment of the hour, some media notes include James Brown missing Boomer and Phil and Craig Carton at the Yankees game.
Hour 4
We started the hour with some Yankees calls and one who thinks the Yankees are taking the next four. We also somehow started talking about Marc Malusis and how he’s doing social media videos on the Yankees. That brought us to playing some of the uncomfortable calls to Marc over the years. Jerry is here for his final update of the day and he starts with the voice of John Sterling as Freddie F ...
