In Episodes 420 and 421, Patrick, Jeffrey, and (eventually) Craig discuss nine mostly baseball topics in between fighting with Tempe, AZ wifi.
I was a Freeman in Paris, I felt unfettered and alive: The Dodgers strike first in Game 1, thanks to the first of several weird Yankees tactical moves.
Helplessly hoping, her harlequin hovers nearby: Dodgers make it 2-for-2 while dealing with an Ohtani injury scare.
Sing another song boys, this one has grown old and bitter: The Yankees have a playoff anthem for some reason, it didn’t help.
Around the Horn: David Stearns hits the reliever market and we consider the White Sox managerial job.
Patrick remembers some Mariners
Ayyyyyyy, I’m fieldin’ ovah here: The Yankees get one back, but that isn’t the main story of this game. Plus Craig complains about Dave Roberts bullpen management one more time.
Five Alive: Game five features a five run lead lost, and the Dodgers are world champions
Here in the afterglow: What’s next for the Yankees and what does this win mean for the Dodgers dynasty.
Around the Horn 2: A trade already and a couple notable retirements
