Summary
The cheating Astros made their long awaited return to the Bronx, and it did not disappoint. Hubbs and Tommy recap the eventful series: the crazy first inning of Tuesday, mentally dominating Altuve (until Thursday), Giancarlo's hot streak, Dusty Baker not shutting up, and more. We also might want Albert Pujols on the Yankees even though it's a terrible idea. Outro Song: “You Got Me Burning Up” (via APM Music Library)

| 1:26.3 | what's up what's happening, welcome to the edition of the short porch presented by barstall sports, I'm your host, I'm the other side of laptop, Tommy smokes, Tom scabelli, |
| 1:32.5 | and Seattle or something and betting on teams and watching them and get no hit. So for me and Tommy today, TJ producing Yankees, I think it was a really good series for them. I think it's the best they've looked overall at every facet, offense, defense, fielding, pitching, lots of being encouraged about bum to not get the sweep really would have been my icing on the cake and like the ultimate statement, but I really think they look good, happy to have two of three here, obviously one more |
| 2:02.5 | more concern about Geo's knee right now, we'll get into it all, Tommy, what are your thoughts? Yeah, I mean, that was a great series. We've been down on the team, obviously more so earlier on, but I'm having the series that they did a sweep, I really would have been about to say like this team special, watch it out, but still like that first game was awesome, like that first inning, answering with the homerungeon Carlo after Breggman shot and everything, it was a good series where Astros are in the |
| 2:32.5 | team they used to be, but they're still a solid baseball team better, obviously than like the Tigers and Orioles that they've been playing. So like have a good showing against a good team like that and have some big moments like Carlo looking hot, or you looking at me weird hubs, I'm not, I'm not okay, but you're looking at like I was about to say some, I think it was overall a good, there was a statement series, the starting pitching was good, the bullpen was not today, but you know, a Chapman is like |
| 3:02.5 | just ridiculous, just Carlo tear like that, this was a, this was a really fun series of baseball. Yeah, for sure, the starting pitching continues to be excellent. I believe coming into today, and that definitely the number dropped after Coles start. I want to say they had a, the starting pitching, ERA of the year was like three six. And for a while, that was still in the fours, despite how good Coles was and now everyone's kind of doing their part. So I mean, they, sorry, nature's next to me, |
| 3:32.5 | Domingo was good on Tuesday, Montgomery had one bad inning on Wednesday, but really end up with six hitting three runs. Thanks to White Sucks, Dave's just mocking him with a tweet. And then he was like mock him and he hits the ass was had off him and then there were no hits after that tweet. So shout out to him. But yeah, everyone starting to come around here, bullpen today really blew it. Green was terrible. Justin Wilson, they just have too much faith in and they got to stop putting him in these spots. |
| 4:01.5 | He's very low on my, on my trust tree. But I mean, the story of the, of the week. |
| 4:08.5 | It's on Carl Stan. |
| 4:10.5 | Carl Stan, this is, and you tweet this, this is exactly who the Yankees traded for and you saw it obviously in the post season last year where he was carrying this team. |
| 4:19.5 | But this now he's a 12 game hitting streak pretty much ever since he's, he's become the two hitter, just like has a whole different approach to play not really swinging anything bad. |
