Boomer & Gio

Jerry returns with the sounds of Trent Grisham, who sounds like he knows his time here is over. We heard from Max Fried on what it was like when the Volpe HR was overturned. Aaron Judge was asked if he was in the lineup if it would have helped. ARod said Cashman has to surround himself with people who know baseball as there are 5 positions where you don’t know who is playing every night. The Brewers beat the Padres and we heard from manager Pat Murphy.

Comic Con is in NYC starting today and Gio’s friend told him five guys dressed as corn stalks just got on the LIRR. Another caller doesn’t like Shaun Morash.

Jerry has more of the Rays beating the Yankees. Boomer said at least the Yankees had some hits last night and scored some runs. Aaron Boone talked about the terrible ending to the season. We heard from Max Fried. Cody Bellinger said he needed to be better. We also heard from Aaron Judge on Volpe being a big part of the team. We also heard, ‘daaaaaa Yankees lose’ from Junior Caminero. We heard from Edwin Diaz as he closed it out for the Dodgers.

We started the hour setting up rules for Yankees fan callers today. We took many Yankees calls and Gio doesn’t want to hear how long you’ve been a fan, he doesn’t want anyone mentioning the Core Four or George Steinbrenner.

Jerry starts with the sounds of the Rays sweeping the Yanks. We heard Dave Sims on the call for the fan interference play. We heard from Max Fried, Cody Bellinger, Aaron Judge and Aaron Boone. The Guardians beat the White Sox so there will be a game 4 tonight. We heard the Dodgers celebrating in the locker room as they advanced to the NLCS.

The Yankees season is over and Eddie Scozzare showed up in his ‘Happy YE Day’ t-shirt. Dua Lipa was seen talking to Marlins Man behind home plate which was very bizarre.

Gio gives the Jets one last chance against the Browns, setting off a sports-focused show centered on tonight's high-stakes Yankees elimination game with Max Fried, Boomer’s lineup ideal, and Freddie Freeman homering in a Dodgers win over the Braves. Jayden Daniels prepares to face the Giants with Boomer expecting New York to test his injured elbow, alongside comments from Aaron Boone, Kevin Cash, and a Hernández home run in another Dodgers victory over Atlanta. Updates cover two suspended NFL referees, Jazz’s antics on the Yankees, Kevin Cash praising Ben Rice, John Harbaugh’s sideline reaction to a game-ending Deonte Banks interception, and a Rangers victory over the Islanders. Finally, Phil Simms breaks down the Jets’ abysmal performance in Chicago and the Giants’ do-or-die situation with Daniels, before wrapping up with Gerrit Cole’s bullpen availability and whether the Yankees can show enough heart to save their season.

Gio gives the Jets one last chance against the Browns before the guys pivot to a high-stakes Yankees game, Boomer’s ideal lineup, and a pessimistic fanbase. Jerry delivers the morning's first update, featuring Max Fried on handling adversity and an impending baby, alongside Freddie Freeman’s home run in a Dodgers victory over the Braves. Later, a caller highlights Boomer’s cameo in the Dennis Miller Monday Night Football documentary, and the hour wraps up with Gio and Boomer discussing the "Russian plague," its election-season timing, and its parallels to COVID.

Jayden Daniels looks set to play against the Giants, with Boomer expecting New York to cleanly test his injured left elbow and force him into shotgun, while Gio notices that once-cocky Yankees fans have completely vanished. Jerry's update features Aaron Boone on tonight's game, Max Fried declaring it a must-win, Kevin Cash sizing up Yankee Stadium, and a Dodgers win over the Braves powered by a Hernandez home run. Later, Mike Francesa questioning a Jets tweet reminds Gio of the time Mike fell for a fake Captain Kangaroo story, leading into classic Mike & The Mad Dog audio where Mike insists Captain Kangaroo and Mr. Rogers were war heroes.
