the New York met president officially declared to sign Juan Soto before he hits free agency

For only the fourth time during the regular season, the Los Angeles Dodgers came to Yankee Stadium to take on the New York Yankees and everyone in the baseball world was hyped for this possible World Series match up. Normally, a series of this magnitude doesn’t live up to the hype. However, this one did.

Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about the epic three game series that saw Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Teoscar Hernandez lead the Dodgers to a 2-1 series win, the electric atmosphere in the Bronx from both fan bases and the notable absence of Juan Soto from the Yankees’ lineup.

Also on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys talk about why the Atlanta Braves will be one of the first teams to make a trade to help their underperforming lineup since the loss of Ronald Acuna, the Texas Rangers being on the verge of getting back a major piece for their rotation and the super success that Kyle Bradish has had for the Baltimore Orioles.

Jake & Jordan also recap every series from this weekend in baseball and break down the newest City Connect uniforms to drop for the Minnesota Twins. Spoiler alert, Jordan is a big fan of the design.

One thing MLB undoubtedly has on other major American sports leagues is Dog Day.

Each year, certain teams select a handful of games from their regular-season schedule to allow fans to bring their furry friends to the stadium.

After all, the only thing better than enjoying a gorgeous night at the ball park is enjoying a gorgeous night at the ball park with you Golden Retriever.

Such was the case for thousands of fans at T-Mobile Park on Monday when the Seattle Mariners hosted their second “Bark at the Park” event of the season. The pups seemed to enjoy their night out on the town, as well.

NBC Sports Chicago’s camera crew caught an excellent shot of a Golden Retriever in a Mariners hat chowing down on a hot dog — bun and all — in the stands. The frank appeared to be garnished with both ketchup and mustard.

The clip, which was posted by NBC Sports Chicago on X, has gone viral, garnering almost 2.5 million views in less than 24 hours.

We cannot confirm or deny reports that the K-9 in question will be replacing Joey Chestnut in this year’s July 4th Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest at Coney Island.
