Summary

Sammy Sosa week continues with Long Gone Summer director AJ Schnack and NL legend Jason Kendall. We talk to AJ about Sunday's 30-for-30 and go behind the scenes of Sammy Sosa making his way back into our lives. Jason Kendall then joins the show to talk about being behind the plate during that '98 season, competing against and being an NL All Star with Sosa & McGwire, and a bunch of other shit that you can only get from one of the greatest catchers of all time. We say All Gas No Brakes a lot around here but I honestly don't know if that applies to anyone more than Jason Kendall on a baseball field. Sammy Sosa week marches on. AGNB!!!!
