Summary

Hembo and Buster discuss Ronny Simon’s tough night, if the Red Sox’s season is unraveling, Yoshinobu Yamamoto garnering ace status in the league, Aaron Judge’s insane hits pace, Cal Raleigh’s season for the ages at catcher, and Tarik Skubal torturing hitting. Then, Tim Kurkjian talks about the buzz around Shohei Ohtani throwing, if the Yankees or Dodgers have a better shot at winning a World Series right now, the fistfight for playoff spots in the American League, and if Aaron Judge can conceivably bat .400.
