Summary

Rog is joined by Red Sox manager Alex Cora, proud Puerto Rican and devoted Liverpool supporter. Cora shares his unique journey from growing up in a baseball-obsessed nation to being passionate about football through Fenway Sports Group, the shared ownership behind both the Red Sox and Liverpool FC.

Cora reflects on the crossover coaching philosophies he's adopted from football to baseball, offers his perspective on Liverpool's transition under Arne Slot, draws compelling cross-sport comparisons to Virgil van Dijk and Mo Salah, and explains why the 2026 FIFA World Cup will forever change the perspective of soccer in the United States.
