Karl Ravech and Buster get into Stephen A. Smith calling out Buster and Tim Kurkjian, and then bouncing his first pitch at Yankee Stadium. Plus, the guys discuss the Phillies clinching a playoff spot, the virtual tie in the AL West, the schedule hammering the Mariners and Tommy Pham’s thoughts on the Mets position players. Then, Sarah Langs talks about Gerrit Cole ending the AL Cy Young race, the very small chance the Padres sneak into the playoffs, Corbin Carroll’s 25 home runs and 50 stolen bases, and the coming Seattle-Texas steel cage match. Next, Todd Radom has thoughts on expansion, the Forgotten Field and the quiz. Later, the American Sports Medicine Institute’s research director Dr. Glenn Fleisig stops by to examine the barrage of injuries in baseball, the correlation he sees between the rise and velocity and injuries, and why he’s confident MLB will get a handle on this problem.
