Finally! Some good news!

First, we're trying out a new format! Also, Will "the Thrill" Ireton has an Instagram and Mets broadcaster Gary Cohen mistakes Hyeseong Kim for Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

9:21 - Welcome to our new segment, INSIDE BASEBALL, where we get into the nitty gritty of the stats and specifics. First, we chat position players: Masataka Yoshida hits his first career walk off and extends the Green Monsta City Connect streak, Kazuma Okamoto looks loose, Munetaka Murakami looks like Kyle Schwarber, and Team Korea's Jahmai Jones and Shay Whitcomb both finally make the starting lineup and homer.

27:47 - Ohtani transition! His on-base streak continues, he signs a ball for a 100-year-old survivor of Nagasaki, the Angels exclude him from their 60 year celebration video, and his first outing as a pitcher only is, of course, impressive.

38:00 - INSIDE BASEBALL: PITCHING debuts and we break down Bryan Woo and balks, Shota Imanaga's impressive outings, Yusei Kikuchi's ups and downs, and pray to the baseball gods that Kodai Senga and Roki Sasaki figure something out.

52:01 - New segment! We dive into a cultural aspect of the Asians in Baseball Cinematic Universe. This week, we discuss Tatsuya Imai and the struggle of players transitioning from NPB/KBO (Japan and Korea's leagues) to MLB. Let us know what you think and throw out some name suggestions in the comments!
