UCONN won their second straight NCAA championship last night. There are rumors of Danny Hurley going to Kentucky but Boomer said that’s not happening. Boomer did his Frank The Tank walk yesterday and Frank was talking about maybe Shaheen Holloway would go to Kentucky. Boomer said Kentucky is one of the most pressure-filled jobs in the country. Anthony Volpe is off to a great start this season in the field and at the plate. He homered last night against the horrendous Marlins. Jerry is here for his first update and starts highlights from UCONN’s championship win over Purdue. Dan Hurley was very low key in the press conference after. We heard audio from a reporter who found John Calipari walking his dog and pushing an empty dog stroller. The Mets beat the Braves thanks to a HR by DJ Stewart and 2 HRs by Brandon Nimmo. Boomer said the Knicks cannot lose to the Bulls tonight. They have to win 3 of their last 4 games of the season. In the final segment of the hour, Gio said yesterday during the eclipse, roosters were confused by the sun going in and the sun coming back out. Some people were really into the eclipse. Gio can’t believe we don’t think about the sun and the moon.
Juan Soto really seems to be enjoying his time playing with the Yankees. He’s interacting with the fans, signing autographs. He almost missed the first pitch of the game while signing in right field. What other teams would be able to afford Soto? Giants, Astros and Mets seem like teams that could. He looks really happy here but he is not the type to give a discount to the team he’s with at the moment. Yankee fans will pressure them to do everything they can to keep him. We then got into the Knicks as they have only 4 more regular season games before they hit the playoffs. A caller wonders if this UCONN team is the best team we’ve ever seen since the great UCLA teams of the past. Both Chris Carlin and Maggie Gray said Dawn Staley should be the next coach at Kentucky, for the men’s team. Jerry is here for an update but first, Dan Patrick has already discussed UCONN vs the Pistons. Jerry starts with the sounds of last night’s UCONN win over Purdue for their second straight NCAA championship. Brandon Nimmo hit 2 HRs as the Mets beat the Braves. Charles Barkley was not impressed with the eclipse, calling people ‘losers’ for being excited. Christine Johnson of CBS was in Niagara Falls to see the eclipse and Jerry has some audio. She was very emotional. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about the playoff push the Islanders are making.
The Mets came back down 4-0 to the Braves and won. DJ Stewart got his first hit of the season, a HR that ultimately was the game winning run. Brandon Nimmo hit 2 homeruns and had 5 RBIs. The Yankees did what they are supposed to do against a bad team like the Marlins, blasting them 7-0. Right now the Yankees and Pirates have the best record in baseball. Boomer wonders why we don’t have any update on the Ohtani betting situation. A caller thinks John Sterling wasn’t feeling well during Sunday’s game, which is why he thinks he was off yesterday. A caller wonders if you can root against your alma mater if they’re playing against the team you rooted for as a kid. Jerry returns for an update but first Gio wonders who is the best team in NY right now? Jerry starts with all the sounds from last night’s UCONN win over Purdue for their second straight NCAA title. Brandon Nimmo hit 2 HRs and had 5 RBIs. Juan Soto hit a HR as the Yankees had no problem with the Marlins. Elly De La Cruz hit an inside the park HR last night. Jerry has more audio of people on the news who are way into the eclipse. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer is going to UBS arena for Rangers/Islanders.
We talked about the Masters which starts this Thursday. Gio has a nugget for how to pick winners for the Masters. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds from last night’s UCONN win over Purdue to win their second straight NCAA championship. In the postgame, Dan Hurley certainly acted like he’d been there before. It certainly doesn’t seem like he’s leaving. The Yankees beat the Marlins no problem and Juan Soto hit a HR. The Moment of The Day involves reaction from news reporters on location during the eclipse. In the final segment of the show, Boomer is going to UBS arena tonight for Rangers/Islanders and Gio recommends the Shaq Big Chicken sandwich. NASA said they photographed what looked like a surfboard shaped object near the surface of the moon. Turns out it’s South Korea’s satellite.
