Darren Smith and John Gennaro kick off the show by talking about the San Diego Padres, who clinched a playoff berth last night with their best player at home with an illness. The guys highlight some very honest quotes from A.J. Preller and Mike Shildt that showed what a tough year this has been, despite winning enough to make it to the postseason.

After that, John jumps off and Steve Sands from NBC and The Golf Channel joins Darren to preview this weekend's Ryder Cup. The guys talk about what Steve will be doing, why the event is so unique, and whether USA team captain Keegan Bradley should've picked himself to be on the team.
