Baseball Is Dead Episode 140: J-Rod Show

It was a big weekend in MLB, but today we’re starting with the Little League World Series ahead of a heavyweight matchup between Japan and Chinese Taipei. Then, we got Julio Rodríguez putting an absolute SHOW over the last week as the Mariners skyrocket in the standings and now have a 60% chance to make the postseason. Gerrit Cole had his 4th straight opportunity to pass the Baines line and failed to do so yet again, and Jayhay took that personally. We also have the BID parlay, Pete Alonso throwing a milestone baseball away, and a conversation on the NL MVP race. Thanks for listening and we’ll see you on Wednesday!
