The 2025 All-Star Game delivered chaos, drama, and one of the most memorable finishes in recent memory—and Aaron Boone was at the center of it all. Adam Weinrib and Thomas Carannante break down the AL’s wild comeback attempt, Boone’s controversial bullpen decisions, and the league’s first-ever “swing-off” tiebreaker. They also discuss Aaron Judge’s early exit, Jonathan Aranda’s surprising selection, Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s Derby letdown, and Eugenio Suárez’s injury scare.

Then, in the second half of the show, Adam and Thomas are joined by Anthony Raneri, lead singer of Bayside, to talk baseball, touring, and emotion. Raneri shares his earliest Yankees memories, what it was like being a Bronx Bomber in Queens, and how fandom has shaped him—from defiant loyalty in Mets territory to coping with late-inning heartbreak on the road. The band is celebrating 25 years with The Errors Tour, and we also dig into the nostalgia, perspective, and connection to the 2000 Subway Series that makes this moment so meaningful.

The Yankees have designated DJ LeMahieu for assignment, ending his seven-season tenure in the Bronx. Despite a recent uptick in performance, the team opted to part ways with the veteran infielder, citing roster flexibility and the emergence of Jazz Chisholm Jr. at second base . Adam Weinrib and Thomas Carannante discuss the implications of this move and speculate on LeMahieu's future.

General Manager Brian Cashman has expressed a strong commitment to improving the roster ahead of the trade deadline, emphasizing the need for upgrades, particularly at third base and in the bullpen . The hosts analyze potential trade targets and the feasibility of significant acquisitions in the current market.

In the Quick Hits segment, the duo highlights Cam Schlittler's impressive debut, which has earned him another start post-All-Star break. They also address the bullpen's struggles, notably Jonathan Loaisiga's recent performances, and preview the Yankees' draft strategy, anticipating a focus on college right-handed pitchers.
