Tim Kurkjian and Buster look back on the first weekend and discuss the Guardians’ Steven Kwan looking like the best player in baseball, Rob Manfred gifting all the players headphones, a culture shift within the Mets' locker room, Red Sox hitters complaining how fast Yankee pitchers were working with PitchCom, if Cody Bellinger is in trouble, which side blew it in Aaron Judge’s contract negotiations and the Braves’ championship rings. Then, Sarah Langs plays The Numbers Game with notes on Hunter Greene’s heat, Kwan, and the Twins’ consecutive runs via the homer. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
