Boomer & Gio

Jerry and John Franco fill in for Boomer & Gio to break down the Mets and Yankees at the All-Star break, player injuries, and the Mets' ninth-inning collapse ahead of Ben Rice's Home Run Derby tonight. Next, Franco talks tough hitters and team brawls, the crew debates wasted money on the McGregor fight, and C-Lo updates on a Yankees win and Rory McIlroy's golf struggles. The baseball fight talk continues with Darryl Strawberry and Franco getting ejected on "John Franco Day" before Kevin Burkhardt joins to preview the All-Star Game. Finally, Franco fields caller questions on classic brawls and potential lockouts, overcomes a "Chazz Chisholm" slip-up, and wraps up the show with wild animal videos and an "Oh my God" Moment of the Day.

C-Lo's audio segment features a Falcons exec comparing Tom Brady to Freddy Krueger, a guy who oddly looks like Eddie Scozzare getting tossed by a bison at Yellowstone, a bear attack, and an "Oh my God" montage.

Jerry and John Franco are in for Boomer & Gio today, starting with where the Mets and Yankees stand at the All-Star break halfway mark and why guys get hurt more now than in the 1980s. Next, C-Lo brings his first update featuring the sound of Ben Rice’s game-winning triple, followed by word that Cam Schlittler will not pitch in the All-Star Game due to rest days. Then, we break down how the Mets led the Red Sox 2-0 in the ninth before a Lindor error and a Devin Williams blown save led to a loss and a sweep, featuring comments from both players. Finally, Ben Rice hits tonight’s HR Derby under the ultimate pressure: his dad is pitching to him.

Jerry starts by asking John Franco about the toughest hitters he faced and the team's best fighters, before shifting to Conor McGregor's brief fight and the money people wasted on it. Next, the room discusses events that were a complete waste of cash, highlighting Al's 1992 Jets/Colts game. Then, C-Lo updates us with the sounds of another Yankees victory, Aaron Boone discussing four straight wins heading into the break, and the Mets losing in extra innings after holding a 2-0 lead in the ninth. Finally, we hear Rory yelling about being bad at golf before Jerry quizzes Al on 1980s Reds players.

We talk baseball fights and Daryl Strawberry, with John Franco sharing his happiness that Strawberry turned his life around and is helping Lenny Dykstra, before Franco details getting thrown out of "John Franco Day" for fighting. Next, C-Lo updates us on Cam Schlittler sitting out the All-Star Game, followed by Evan Roberts' take on the Mets giving fans "one final kick in the balls" before the break. Finally, Kevin Burkhardt from Fox joins the show to talk about the MLB All-Star Game.
