Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about how late it's within the season and a fan’s exuberant response to the one identified unassisted outfield triple play in main or minor league historical past, reply listener emails (15:17) about Shohei Ohtani 2.0 and whether or not “bulk guys” may stave off extinction for 300-game winners, Stat Blast (38:11) about standings-related enjoyable information, precedents for the Mariners quickly erasing a 10-game deficit within the AL West, group droughts in back-to-back-to-belly homers, non-All-Star MVPs, bunting by depend, this season’s uptick in balks, Gunnar Henderson and the passing-up-the-cycle membership, and a wild pitch/handed ball thriller, plus a Future Blast from 2051 (1:49:48) and some follow-ups (1:52:30).
