It is Thursday, June 4th, 2026.

This is another edition of baseball today presented to by T-Mobile. That is my man, Trevor Ploup. I am Chris Rose, producer Dan along for the ride as well. And I start off by apologizing to you. On June 15th, feel free to wear your hat backward. I got a lot of pushback on that. So you wear it into your 70s if you want to, okay? Who am I to tell you that you can't do that when you turn 40?

Yeah. I got a lot of pushback on that. So you, you wear it into your 70s if you want to, okay? Who am I to tell you that you can't do that when you turn 40? Yeah, you know, I wish you would wear your hat backward more often because you look, you know, the Fred Dirst thing is, that's so good. And kind of like you look a little like Chad Smith drummer of the red hot chili peppers too. there one okay not bad the internet got you

huh uh the show comments got me they were like just stop telling what to do i mean i was just

having a little fun with it but yeah you know you can wear it i very rarely wear it backward but you know

me you know what?

I don't really wear my hat backwards too often.

Yeah.

I think it's more around the house thing than anything else is what I was feeling super cool.

Yeah.

It's almost birthday time.

We're going to just keep counting the days down until a week from Monday.

It'll be awesome.

This first thing we're doing, it's not so much a tip of the cap, but kind of a wild thing that you rarely, if ever seen in baseball, interim third base coach,

Chad Epperson for the Red Sox. Did you see this clip? I did. Where he's waving a runner home

against Baltimore. He goes into the field of play in order to see the ball in the corner at Fenway.

Now, initially, I think that was Williore Brayu that was running the bases.

He was called safe.

They challenged it.

They overturned it.

So he was out to, I mean, whatever.

But is this bizarre?
