The Opening Drive

The Wizard joins Danny & Randy live from the Grand Opening of the Rawlings Experience to talk about the brand new facility, the amazing history of defense and the Cardinals, Henry he gives Keith Hernandez a lot of credit for his success, how he brought the trapeze glove back into the majors, the best ways to break a glove in—no mattress needed, enjoying a small-ball offense from the Cardinals to start the season, why that kind of offense is still necessary in today’s three-outcome version of the sport, how important his first gold glove was but how it led to him making changes, his pride in winning gold gloves with a rotator cuff—and how he finally got it repaired so he could really get into golf.

Jay joins Danny & Randy to talk about how his dad was always a Rawlings guy when he was in the majors, what he thought about Tiger’s first day at Augusta, why DeChambeau’s start isn’t a fluke, how his changes have helped re-elevate his game, how apparent his absence from the Ryder Cup seems now and why the 23 holes today for Tiger is going to make the cut a tall order.
