The New York Yankees won Game 3 against the Kansas City Royals, with Giancarlo Stanton delivering a standout performance featuring three hits—including the game-winning home run—and a stolen base. But the buzz doesn't stop there—debate swirls around the decision to start Gerrit Cole in Game 4, sparking intense discussion among fans and analysts alike. This episode dives into the Yankees' bullpen success, the Mets' thrilling comeback against the Phillies led by Francisco Lindor's grand slam, and the Detroit Tigers' commanding lead over the Cleveland Guardians. The hosts also tackle the hot topic of MLB playoff scheduling and critique TBS's coverage of the Yankees-Royals series.
