Boomer & Gio

Gio and Jerry react to the Yankees falling behind 2-0 in their playoff series, debating Aaron Boone vs. the players following costly errors by McMahon and Jazz, postgame audio from Cam Schlittler, Spencer Jones’s catwalk hit, and Ben Rice's two home runs. The guys break down the Falcons crushing the Saints, Aaron Glenn’s mindset, NFL referee suspensions, and Max Fried’s upcoming must-win start as the series heads home. Wrapping up, they discuss small-payroll playoff teams, Jim Harbaugh on protecting Justin Herbert, spiraling Jets and Yankees fan panic, and Mike Brown on coaching after winning a championship.

With Boomer out today, Gio and Jerry take the wheel, starting with the Yankees’ playoff loss and debating whether the players or Aaron Boone are to blame. C-Lo steps in with the update on first-inning errors by McMahon and Jazz, followed by postgame reactions from Cam Schlittler and Jazz. Beyond baseball, the Falcons crush the Saints on the ground, Aaron Glenn adopts a week-to-week mindset, and the NFL suspends two officials for disrespecting players. Finally, the guys wrap the hour taking calls from Yankees fans, including one demanding Anthony Volpe play.

We get back to the Yankees falling behind 2-0 in the series and head straight to calls from fans worried about their poor fielding and lack of hitting. C-Lo returns for his update, starting with yesterday’s golf tournament where he took forever to hit the ball, before playing sounds from the Yankees loss—highlighted by Spencer Jones hitting a catwalk at the Trop for an out and Ben Rice providing the only offense with two home runs. Finally, Gio comes agonizingly close to winning $20K in a closest-to-the-pin contest.

We look ahead to Max Fried starting a must-win game for the Yankees before examining small-payroll playoff teams and how a Milwaukee-Tampa World Series could affect a potential lockout. A caller questions whether Cam Schlittler hates the Rays as much as the Red Sox, Gio marvels at Mahjong’s surging popularity alongside calls from avid players, and C-Lo returns with Jazz discussing Cam's performance plus audio of Spencer Jones hitting a stadium roof ring. Finally, a caller trades words with Jim Harbaugh on keeping Justin Herbert protected, and the hour wraps with the story of former American Idol contestant Caleb Flynn killing his wife to be with a 20-year-old.

We start with both Jets and Yankees fanbases completely losing faith, though the Yankees still have a chance to bounce back as they return home for two games despite calls from fans wanting everyone benched or fired. C-Lo delivers his final update with Kevin Harlan’s call of the Falcons crushing the Saints and Mike Brown discussing what changes for a championship-winning coach. After Pete in Scottsdale’s "who’s on first?" earns Moment of the Day, the show wraps with LeBron playing in Philly while living in NYC and commuting via the Fanatics helicopter.
