Summary

Filling in for a sick Boomer on his 64th birthday (marked by an Al-sung Beatles tune), Gio lamented the Mets' series loss to the "not very good" Twins, citing sloppy defense and a cold, strikeout-prone Juan Soto. Pete Alonso's strong season and contract were discussed, drawing comparisons to Strawberry and Wright. C-Lo's update featured Dave Sims' call of Cody Bellinger's game-ending catch and an Aaron Judge homer. A caller shared a story about giving C-Lo's niece a ball at Yankee Stadium. Chris Russo's interview with Gary Player included a blunt "stay alive." The hour concluded with Jim Palmer's claim of never eating a chicken wing, Gio and Jerry's dislike of lobster, Gio's anecdote about someone unfamiliar with tacos, and Al's claim of never having grilled cheese.
