Summary

John Minko stops by the studio for Eddie’s emotional last day, discussing everything Eddie has done for the station over the years and playing an audio montage of his greatest hits. Jerry then returns with a Knicks/Cavs preview highlighting Cleveland's poor fourth-quarter play, followed by Chris Russo talking about taking two Valiums for an MRI tube. In baseball, the Yankees lose a 2-1 pitching duel to the Blue Jays, and the Mets fall to the Nationals despite hearing from Carlos Mendoza and Juan Soto homering twice. Finally, a caller offers Eddie early retirement tips before the bad news arrives that today's golf game is cancelled due to rain.
