Here's a corny taste of this episode:
Zoe Krestel the Wonder Dog makes an appearance, and Brett is convinced the canine is on Team FoD with him
What is the excitement level over this very odd, midseason game?
Is there concern over how Carlos Rodón is able to finish out 2021, given his heavy workload/Cy Young-caliber start?

Colleen's synopsis of the movie is brutal, but not entirely inaccurate
Colleen and Jacki both seem fixated on Moonlight Graham attending to the choking child vs. calling the paramedics — as if an ambulance is on-call to fish hot dog bits out of someone's throat in rural Iowa
