33 years after his retirement, Dave 'The Cobra' Parker finally got the news that he would be inducted into baseball's Hall of Fame. Saturday, less than a month away from being able to attend his Hall of Fame induction, baseball lost its giant. The six-foot five-inch slugger left an indelible mark on the game. Parker won an MVP, back-to-back hitting titles, three Gold Gloves and two World Series. The 7-time All-Star finished with 2,712 hits and a 40.1 career WAR. Jake and Jordan remember the legend.

The Mets' struggles continue as they suffer their worst series loss in team history. Losing by a combined score of 30-4 over the three game series, the Mets get swept by the Pirates without Paul Skenes. New York remains only 1.5 games back in the NL East, but does a players only meeting and a consistent lack of offense spell trouble as they prepare to meet up with the Brewers this week? The guys dive into this matchup and look ahead for the Mets. However, this was not the only sweep of the weekend as Jake and Jordan discuss the other two sweeps as well. They break down the Cardinals' sweep of the Guardians and the Marlins' sweep of the Diamondbacks in the latest version of 'How Sweep It Is.' 

Plus, Ohtani dominates on the mound and at the plate, Tarik Skubal strikes out 13, the Orioles score 22 runs in a game and the Astros continue to have the best record in baseball since May 6th. Jake and Jordan get you 'Around the League' quickly with 'Turbo Mode' as they break down each series from the weekend.
