In Episode 498, Patrick, Jeffrey, and Craig chat about Phillies fans (complimentary), and then discuss five mostly baseball topics.
1. Throw me into the Delaware and leave me down at the bottom there: The Phillies exit the playoff in a truly weird fashion, and it’s unclear what comes next for them. What comes next for the Dodgers is more of the Dodgers bullpen for Craig2. And singing “Fun, Fun, Fun”: The Jays were just a little bit better than the Yankees when it counted.3. Chicago Med: The Cubs get healthy back home and send the series back to Milwaukee4. Welcome to Splitsville, Population: You: While the Mariners can’t put the Tigers away and now have to face Tarik Skubal again.5. Before and After: Craig remembers the wrong guy.
