Brian goes over the Pats’ preseason finale against the Commanders, some impressive plays from Drake Maye, some dreadful ones from the offensive line, and the quarterback competition between Maye and Jacoby Brissett (0:40). Then, he recaps the Sox’s tough weekend; they were swept at home by the Diamondbacks, and their pitching continues to falter (24:00). Brian and Jamie end with a listener email on the Sox and chat about Drake Maye’s night (44:40).
