After missing the 2023 postseason, the New York Yankees made it their mission to get back into October and make some noise. They accomplished their first task by defeating the Kansas City Royals in four games and are now waiting to see who they will face in the ALCS starting next week.

Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss ace Gerrit Cole’s crucial performance in Game 4 as well as the space clearing incident between Maikel Garcia, Anthony Volpe and Jazz Chisholm Jr. The guys then discuss where the Royals go from here after their successful 2024 Campaign.

Also in this episode Baseball Bar B Cast, Jake and Jordan talk about the exciting Game 4 between the Detroit Tigers and the Cleveland Guardians, where David Fry played hero and sent the series back to Detroit for a vital Game 5. While Tigers ace Tarik Skubal will be on the mound, the guys are trying to figure out what pitching plan the Guardians will follow.

To close out the show, the guys watch the historic Game 5 pitching duel between the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres and wonder how the New York Mets will kill time before the NLCS begins on Sunday night.
