Hour 1 - The guys are live from Fenway starting with the Red Sox and more interesting comments from president Sam Kennedy. Are his comments trying to paint him and ownership in a better light if Alex Cora doesn't return as manager?

Hour 2 - The conversation moves to Jayson Tatum and what he has to do to be effective for the Celtics against the Mavericks. Does he need a killer instinct and do fans want to see that?
