by

EWFI

Ben Lindbergh and Jeff Sullivan banter about Ben’s wedding weekend, the outfield-wall padding at Minute Maid Park, the rapid repair of a behind-home-plate sign, and a very long pause between pitches, then discuss the first four games of the championship series, including Joe Maddon’s decision-making in Game 2, the Cubs’ moribund offense, the pivotal plays of the first two games of the ALCS, the excellence of Dallas Keuchel and Justin Verlander, the rest of the Astros’ rotation, Aaron Judge’s strike zone, and more.

Audio intro: The Apples in Stereo, "Wings Away"
Audio outro: Gene Vincent, "Wear My Ring"

This episode hasn’t shown up on Stitcher yet. Is the issue on my end?

This was on our end. It’s technically been fixed on our end, but might take a day for Stitcher to recognize things have been fixed. Hopefully it will not take that long. Thanks for letting us know.
