Summary

Baseball's Opening Day has arrived, marking the start of a long season, with Carlos Rodon taking the mound for the Yankees. The series will also spotlight Max Fried's performance in Gerrit Cole's absence. Amidst discussions about baseball's changing role in society, with Boomer noting its "weird spot" and Gio lamenting its decline as a national pastime, Jerry delivered his first update. The segment included a lighthearted exchange about a "companion" label and a "take WFAN to church" promo. Rob Manfred's reaction to ESPN's MLB coverage shift was also addressed, followed by Russell Wilson's social media message to Giants fans. The hour concluded with a debate about the inclusivity of religious representation in WFAN's promotional content.
