Summary

If you thought Albert Pujols already accomplished everything there is to accomplish in his baseball career, you were wrong. This weekend he added pitching to the list as he closed out a game against the Giants who took no issue with him pitching as they're publicly against unwritten rules. Jared commented on the Phillies blowing the last game of the series against the Dodgers and fans were all up in Jared's mentions since the Phillies won the first three games of the series. The Pirates beat the Reds 1-0 and didn't get a hit the entire game which is only the sixth time that's happened in history. Joey talks about what's going on with the Braves after a real tough series against the Pirates. That, and a lot more in Episode 12. We're also debuting our brand new MLB stream with Jared on Tuesday night 5/16 at 7 pm so make sure to tune in for that!
