Episode Details

Cleveland Guardians stun the New York Yankees with clutch performances from Jose Ramirez and Kyle Manzardo, seizing a rare series win in the Bronx. Can the Guardians ride this momentum and pull off a sweep against Carlos Rodón? Justin Lada and Jeff Ellis break down the team's resilience, highlight key homers against elite pitching, and evaluate Reese Hoskins’ evolving role.

Listeners get insights on Tanner Bibee’s recent form, upcoming challenges, and how rookie bats like Travis Bazzana are adjusting to big-league pitching. With the Guardians’ offense firing and their bullpen under pressure, what’s next as they take on the Texas Rangers?
