Episode 21: “Bronx Blues: Yankees on the Brink, Mets Fans Savor the Chaos”

The tides have turned in New York baseball, and not in the Yankees’ favor. In Episode 21, the Bronx Bombers find themselves down 2-0 in the ALDS to the Toronto Blue Jays after a grueling Wild Card win over the Red Sox that briefly reignited hope in the Bronx. Ed breaks down what’s gone wrong so far — from missed opportunities to shaky bullpen moments — while Alec, whose Mets are long out of the picture, takes every chance to twist the knife and root for Toronto to finish the job.

It’s rivalry energy at its peak, with Alec’s petty glee meeting Ed’s frustrated optimism as we dissect what’s left for the Yankees to fight for — and what it would mean for New York if the city’s October dreams end this early. From dugout decisions to dug-in banter, Episode 21 captures the essence of every Mets fan’s favorite pastime: watching the Yankees sweat.
