The Shohei Must Go On

1–2 minutes

In their first podcast with real baseball to talk about, Bobby and Alex banter about some Weird Stuff That Has Happened, including Bryce Harper’s fashion choices, an abundance of extra inning games, the Dodgers’ crappy luck, and a glimpse into our hell of a Facebook Future. Then they list off their favorite things from Opening Week, which is mostly just the joy of watching Shohei Ohtani, but also includes Michael Conforto’s return to the field, inside-the-park home runs, and Kevin Kiermaier’s innovative ways of keeping warm. They wrap it up with verbal descriptions of their favorite GIFs so far — the best way to enjoy that kind of content.
