Summary

We started the hour with the news from Sports Business Journal that said for Subway Series viewing, SNY had 70% more viewers than the YES Network and we are trying to figure out why. C-Mac thinks the Mets fan has a deeper connection to Gary, Keith & Ron than the Yankees have with Michael Kay. Peter returns for an update and starts with the sounds of the Yankees coming back down 5-0 to beat the Mariners. We also heard the sounds of the Mets losing a double header in Baltimore. Evan Roberts doesn’t seem to know that Steve Cohen’s ‘Fab Four’ reference was about the Beatles. In the final segment of the hour, we took more calls on why way more people tuned into SNY over YES for the Subway Series.
