Description
DOB and EOF react to Thursday's baseball openers (:45) before discussing Juan Soto's positive Covid-19 test, and the expanded playoff format (9:30). The duo share their thoughts about the ambiance of the empty ballparks (15:00) as well as the improvements made to the playoff format (22:30). We understand if you like fan cutouts in the stand, but there's no room in the game for "virtual fans" (27:30). The podcast is then interrupted by breaking news of Braves catchers Tyler Flowers and Travis d'Arnaud being unavailable due to illness, and rookie Alex Jackson starting behind the dish in their stead (36:15). The boys wrap up today's edition of the show discussing Cole Hamels' move to the 45-day IL (40:00).
