Summary

Good morning afternoon and evening sports fans. It's episode 96 in the Red Line Radio catalogue and it's baseball heavy featuring our first Cooperstown resident, Fergie Jenkins. The Hall of Famer joins us to talk about 50 year anniversary of the famous collapse of the 1969 Cubs as well as how Joe Maddon would put a lineup together to beat him. In and around the conversation the guys go deep on baseball with White Sox and Cubs home openers in the rear view mirror. WSD is particularly pumped for the notable development of Yoan Moncada and how crazy fans got for the home opener. On the other side of town Carl only wants to talk about the lineup. Don't ask him about the pitching staff. Lineup conversations only. Outside of that Chief gives a great primer on how to digest playoff hockey, what makes it so great and how the Hawks should attack free agency if they don't want to lie to everyone AGAIN. There's no beefs (sorry) but a light grabbag, a voicemail and some general lively banter around baseball that takes RLR back to its roots. Thank you to our great tasting, less filling partner Miller Lite for making the show happen along with SeatGeek, SimpliSafe, Postmates and Napleton River Oaks Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. All Gas No Brakes!
