About this episode
Rich recaps the Dodgers-Giants nail-biting Game 5 of their NLDS and the controversial check-swing strikeout that gave L.A. the series win over their archrivals to the north.
Turner Sports MLB Analyst Ron Darling tells Rich why MLB should expand the use of replay to avoid controversies like the end of the Dodgers-Giants series, why L.A. rolled the dice on going with an “opener” instead of 20-game winner Julio Urias to start their loser-goes-home game against San Francisco, and why he’s predicting a Dodgers-Astros World Series rematch.
Rich and Chris Brockman debate if they would want to be an MLB manager in this day and age where a team’s front office has more of a say about day-to-day tactics and on-field decisions through the proliferation of analytics.
