Summary

The Baltimore Orioles have caught the Tampa Bay Rays and now hold first place in the AL East! We’re giving credit to the Orioles for staying in the race and talking about the rough stretch the Rays have been going through. The Angels swept the Yankees so we discuss the impact this might have on their decision to trade Ohtani, and what a package could look like. We also have Rob Manfred's re-election, Rendon’s comments in the clubhouse, Rangers heating back up, Yankees players blowing up, and more! Thanks for listening and we’ll see you next week!
