Mets Split; Yanks Get Swept; Aaron Judge Miffed; Nathan's Contest Doesn't Impress; Pitching Now & Then (Hour 1)

Boomer & Gio

Jerry and Joe Benigno are in for Boomer and Gio today. Joe catches Jerry up on his golf game before they discuss a disappointing split for the Mets against the Nationals. Joe has no real expectations for the Mets. He just wants them to give him “a season” and get him to football. Joe thinks Pete Alonso having a down year increases his chances of staying with the Mets after the season. Peter Schwartz is here for his first update of the day and begins with the Yankees, who were swept by the Reds. They’ll still make the playoffs but nobody saw this swoon coming. Jerry thinks Aaron Judge seemed annoyed and was biting his tongue after the game yesterday. Jesse Winker did it to the Mets again. The Mets are in Pittsburgh tonight and Joe remembers two awful trips he took to the city for Jets playoff losses. The Joey Chestnut-less Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest crowned a new champion but the guys are all disgusted by the competition. In the final segment of the hour, Jerry asks Joe about some of the viral moments from his podcast. Joe watched “61” last night which prompts Jerry to ask him what is different about pitching now compared to back then.
