The two teams with the most baseball wins did what they’ve done quite often this season: won. The Philadelphia Phillies, who led the National League with 34 wins, and the New York Yankees, who led the American League with 33 wins, both had successful weekends, running away with sweeps of their opponents.
Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman break down how the Phillies have leveraged their schedule in the first two months and why they’re in for a rude awakening when the competition starts to heat up. They also discuss the potential questions the Yankees will face if Gerrit Cole returns to their rotation.
The boys are also in all the other games of the weekend, including Paul Skenes’ dominating encore performance at Wrigley Field against the Chicago Cubs, Shohei Ohtani hitting his first walk-off in four years, and the Baltimore Orioles taking this round of the Win Bar-B. -Cast Bowl against the Seattle Mariners and they review the St. Louis Cardinals’ City Connect uniforms.
