BMore Sports Pod Podcast; The latest on The Ravens and Orioles

Orioles Hall of Famer Gregg "Otter" Olson joins Jerry Coleman and Mike Bordick fresh off two weeks calling playoff baseball, and he doesn't hold back: why the Rays keep winning on a bottom-three payroll, why nobody in the game asks him about the Orioles, why catchers dropping the glove is "stupid," and what he remembers from the 1990 lockout and the 1994 strike as MLB heads toward another work stoppage. Plus: Otter vs. Polar Bear. Then on "For the Birds": the Orioles' post-season layoffs, including the Oriole Bird performer and Mr. Splash, and why Bordy calls the optics a slap in the face to fans. On "Beyond Baltimore": MLB owners propose a 154-game season starting in 2029, a best-of-seven Division Series, and a 34-page lockout memo that tells teams not to send players holiday cards.

The Ravens were up 17 to 9 and got outscored 15 to nothing in the fourth quarter at home. Mike Preston was in the press box and Jerry Coleman watched the same meltdown, and neither one of them is letting anybody blame this one on John Harbaugh. Ravens great Jamal Lewis joins the show and does not hold back once he hears Derrick Henry carried the ball five times in the second half. Lewis says he would have been livid, explains why he had more standing to demand the ball than Henry does, and tells offensive coordinators around the league to check their egos at the door. On third and one he wants the handoff even if every person in the building knows it is coming. Lewis also breaks down whether the running back position is really devalued, how his running style compares to Henry's, and what happens to defensive backs in the fourth quarter after a back has been pounding them all afternoon. His line about business decisions is worth the listen on its own. Mike and Jerry get into the rest of it. Lamar Jackson's clock management and the interception at the end. Mark Andrews doing his usual disappearing act. A defense that let the Saints convert eight of fifteen on third down and two of two on fourth. Tyler Shough completing 80 percent of his passes in Baltimore. Kyle Hamilton playing well and leaving without talking. Special teams that Preston says should have gotten a D. And a home stadium where the Ravens have now lost seven of their last ten. Then a look ahead to Rio. The field that soccer players called terrible, the hour and a half bus ride, the Ravens being told to stay in the hotel while Dallas gets the beach, and whether Zay Flowers or Nnamdi Madubuike should risk playing on that surface at all. Plus Mike Preston's report card, with a grade for every unit and a D for the coaching staff.
