Brian opens with his big takeaways from a thrilling Red Sox-Yankees game that included an incredible start from Garrett Crochet and some masterful managerial tactics from Alex Cora. Then, Brian chats with Boston sports superfan Kevin Hench about the game, the big seventh inning for the Sox’s offense, a tense save from Aroldis Chapman, and what to expect from starter Brayan Bello in Game 2 (19:00). Brian and Jamie take some listener calls and emails to close out the show (52:00).
