Dan and Pat review late-season Massachusetts high school baseball, projecting likely tournament tiers from MIAA power rankings. They discuss BC High as the clear Division 1 frontrunner, with teams like St. John’s Shrewsbury, Taunton, Franklin, Natick and others chasing; Natick’s 14-3 season, senior depth, and pitching highlights are noted. A major focus is Bishop Feehan’s Brody Bumilia, whose starts draw huge crowds and 15–25 radar guns; Pat describes his elite velocity, pitch mix, mass scout exit after he was pulled, and his first earned runs of the season after previously allowing only two unearned. They cover Braintree’s late skid, Division 2 contenders like St. Mary’s and Walpole and debate the returning Super 8 format and margin-of-victory impact, with Hamilton-Wenham’s 18-0 profile cited. They also preview Player of the Year finalist candidates and end with a minor-league team name trivia game.
