It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN.

All right, 706, our number two, Bill Ford Tuft Studio, Willie and Jerry, in for Boomer and Geo.

A lot on the Mets in hour number one, understandably so, with the outstanding pitching performance from Nolan McLean last night.

A couple of minutes on the Yankees, though, which we've done very little on them this week.

And you know what? You're playing the Nationals. They're doing what they have to do. This would be my question. So obviously they have the long inning yesterday. They score nine runs, whatever the hell it is. They win by a lot. They beat them. They just crushed the Nationals. That third inning was crazy. So here will be my question.

So Anthony Volpe, we know, is struggling.

Yeah.

Okay. just crushed the nationals. That third inning was crazy. So here would be my question. So Anthony Volpe, we know, is struggling.

Yeah. Okay. You have a day where everybody's hitting. I mean, they run under, I know he made the two outs the one inning fine.

But the Aaron Judge hits the home run. They score 11 runs with John Carlos Stanton, Red Hot sitting.

You get the good start from free. Like everything is good. And yet the amount of Yankee talk I hear surrounding Anthony Volpe

a day after they complete a sweep and everything went well, to me is amazing. The fact that he got

boot at the end of that third inning where the team just put up nine runs.

He hits a laser of a line drive in the first inning right at the guy.

Okay, fine.

You know, the Phillies cheered Trey Turner to get him turned around.

The Mets fans cheered Francisco Lendor.

And I understand this has been a horrible season for him in a lot of ways. But I also know he's 24. He's your guy. He came up through the system. He's from the area. Do we need to boo the kid in the third inning of a game where you just scored nine runs and blew the doors off the next? Like there's a time in a place. I don't know. I just, I thought that was a bit much yesterday. No, I thought it felt like overkill. Yeah. And it's especially for a guy who you know is doing, and we kind of talked about this other day, you anticipate and expect, you know, he's doing everything he came behind the curtain to just get back on neutral, right? know it's it's it's rough because when i saw

i heard the booze and i just kind of like whatever that's this yankee stadium but now in a way

in reference how you put it it feels like feels like because he's been the poster boy for all the

yankees woes prior to these last couple games like I don't know if there's a way out.

Like, I actually thought this... Well, hit. I mean, the only way out is to hit. Yes, but I also thought, in some of my trainer thought, I thought the day off was like, good. You're protecting him in a way. You know what I mean? Like, you're saving him from all, everything he has to read or talked about. and then his performance yesterday, in the fashion of the way the Yankees dominated, I was really hoping he got something going, right? Just to kind of like, all right, he's out of this right? It didn't happen. But it's hard to tell Yankee fans when or not, you know, when to boo and when not to boo. You know, it's just not going to happen. And I'm not telling, they can do what they want.
