Baseball Central @ Noon

Jeff Blair & Kevin Barker recap Philadelphia’s convincing 7-0 win in Game 3 of the World Series and look into whether or not Lance McCullers Jr. was tipping his pitches during his outing; before discussing Vladimir Guerrero Jr. winning the AL Gold Glove at first base. Former Astros and Phillies closer Brad Lidge reflects on the World Series between his former clubs; notably the atmosphere at Citizens Bank Park, how he would pitch to Bryce Harper amidst his historic postseason, and who is more trustworthy in the World Series going forward: Justin Verlander or Zack Wheeler (27:23). To end the show, Jeff and Kevin discuss Charlie Montoyo’s future, with reports suggesting that the former Blue Jays manager will be named the Chicago White Sox’s bench coach (47:59). The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
