Summary

Juan Soto noted he's being pitched differently without Aaron Judge batting behind him, which Gio sees as an explanation, not an excuse. Boomer viewed it as a compliment to Judge, not a slight to Pete Alonso, while Gio thinks sensitive fans are overreacting. Soto's presence benefits Alonso. Before Jerry's update, Gio reminisced about old wedding invites, followed by audio clips of Jerry discussing divorce. They joked about using a Chef IQ to check Boomer's fever. The Yankees won, and Matt Martin played his emotional final home game for the Islanders, with goodbye audio clips from various sports figures played. Finally, someone on X shared a Vegas flu story similar to Boomer's, and Boomer had a lunch meeting where Gustav Klimt was discussed.

Big celebration as he's out rounding the bases and some backlash over his comments about Aaron Judge hitting behind him and no longer has the best hitter in baseball hitting behind him and they're pitching to him differently.

0:35.2

I think that that is probably true and I understand that Pete Alonzo has had a

0:41.1

great season, but, you know, Aaron Judge is still Aaron Judge. We talk about him outside of

0:45.8

Shohei Otani as the best player in baseball. He's one of the best hitters I've ever seen. So, you know,

0:50.1

I don't think that Juan Soto is making something like that up. I think he's being honest.

0:55.3

It's just that, you know, the Mets and Yankee fans right now are at this fever pitch and

0:59.7

his rivalry is as strong as it's been over this Juan Soto thing since they faced each

other in the World Series in 2000.

1:07.2

So any time that Juan Soto says something about the Mets like, oh, the Mets future is brighter than the Yankees of their farm system.

1:14.7

Then all the Mets go, you idiots, told you.

1:18.9

And then when Wonsoto says something like, oh, we've got Aaron Judge in the lineup and I don't have the best hitter in baseball hitting behind me.

1:25.0

Then the Yankee fans go, ah, you guys suck.

1:27.5

We're still the Yankees. We have Aaron Judge. It goes back and forth. But as far as what Juan

1:31.2

Soto said, I don't have an issue with that at all because it's, I don't think he's making an

1:37.4
