While he understands Caitlin Clark’s frustration after getting poked in the eye, Craig takes issue with how she handled the moment — and more broadly, how she’s carried herself this season. He explains why he believes Clark is starting to toe the line between confidence and arrogance, suggesting she may be buying into her own hype in a way we didn’t see last year.

Craig opens the show reacting to the Nationals' 10th consecutive loss after falling 10-6 to the Rockies in Game 2 of their four-game set.
