BT and Sal opened their show expressing extreme frustration with the Yankees' "worst loss of the season," citing abysmal baserunning, shoddy defense, and a bullpen that poured "gas on the fire." They passionately argued for immediate repercussions, suggesting Anthony Volpe be benched for a "mental respite" and Mark Leiter Jr. be cut, emphasizing the Yankees' long-standing lack of accountability, from player development issues like Volpe's deteriorating play to the front office's questionable roster construction, especially their continued need for a legitimate third baseman and their "stupid" philosophy of teaching catchers to "steal pitches" at the cost of crucial interferences.
