Hey everyone, it's Boomer and Gio, and if you're into New York sports or you want straight talk about what's really going on in the sports world, Boomer and Geo is your show. We're covering it all. Yankees wins, Giants drama, national headlines, and whatever chaos the day brings on the field and all. No filler, no filters, just real conversation. And believe me, plenty of laughs every weekday morning. We don't hold back and we don't waste your time.

We get to what actually matters.

That's Boomer and Gio and you can listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your pods. Joe, welcome. How are you? I'm good, Mike. How are you? All right, Joe, team's been playing well of late. You're on the door of locking up the home field in the wild card.

You're still pursuing the Red So All's right with the world.

Yeah, things have been good.

We've been playing extremely well, and it's been a combination of some really good pitching,

and we've been swinging the bats well.

And, you know, we were in a really tough stretch of games where it seemed like every

team we were playing was fighting for a playoff spot, and I thought our club responded

really well.

You know, they've come through it, Joe, a lot of them.

You've waited for some of them to come back and to bounce back and do different things.

Now that you have it set up where you do, where you have

the commanding edge for the home field in the wild card, you're still pursuing the Red Sox

with 10 to play three down and you don't play them. How do you view this as you prepare to go

through your last 10 days? Well, I think it's a really important time. We need to continue to play well. Your goal is to first get in the playoffs. I mean, the division is really important because I don't think anyone wants to be in a one-game playoff. You play a lot of games, 162, and it could be one bad bounce, or who knows what, you know, the reason is that you could possibly lose that game.

So I think playing extremely well down this last 10 games is really important to our club.

Because if we do, no matter what we're going to be in the playoffs, and you feel good about your team going in.

Joe, you're going to get, you know, let's be honest.

You have a seven game leading the loss column.

So, you know, we tend to play for the wild card.

We know that.
