Experiencing Game 3 Together & Regrouping for Game 4

Ben and Brent kick off the second hour by checking the text-line to see how listeners experienced last night's historic Game 3. They reflect on the sense of unity among fans, how many people stayed up to watch the game until the very end, and what the atmosphere was like at the Rogers Centre watch party. They also discuss the emotions fans are feeling in the aftermath, and note the surprise surrounding Dave Roberts’ comment to the American broadcast about considering a position player to pitch in the 18th inning. The guys answer listener questions about key moments, from pitching to Shohei Ohtani to sending Davis Schneider in extras. They highlight some of the unsung heroes from the game including Brayden Fisher and Eric Lauer, and praise the strength of the bullpen, while questioning why Chris Bassitt wasn’t used more. Ben and Brent then turn their attention to Game 4, examining how the Blue Jays can regroup after this marathon loss. They discuss the potential impact of losing George Springer, assess how much trouble the team might be in, consider who could lead off the lineup, and share their thoughts on the chances of seeing a vintage Shane Bieber start tonight.
