Summary

Sarah Langs joins Buster to discuss the decision to use Robbie Ray as a reliever, pressure-packed moments in the playoffs and plays the numbers game. Plus, Buster surprises her with a message from Bruce Bochy. Then, Detroit Tigers manager AJ Hinch hops on to break down managing under high-pressure playoff moments, where he lands on using starters as relievers, Yordan Alvarez being the best pure hitter in baseball, the burden of Garret Cole as a Yankee ace, and the vision for the future of the Tigers. Later, Todd Radom joins to discuss Buck Showalter's decision to check Joe Musgrove's suspiciously shiny ears and administers the weekly quiz. Learn more about your ad choices.
