10. Harrison Bader, King of New York

At the end of Mets' fifth-straight loss, SNY's Gary Cohen said "the sun will come up tomorrow, as difficult as that may be to realize." And the sun did come up, but we weren't surprised because we never stopped believing. This week on Hits Different, David and Kaitlyn talk about one of the worst, weirdest weeks in the history of baseball—we are an anti-math podcast but this superlative is mathematically PROVEN. Then, of course, we talk about what came at the end of the week: A comeback victory for your New York Metropolitans, brought to you by hometown hero Harrison Bader who we should not trade no matter how many sociopathic armchair GMs suggest as much on social media. We should, actually, sign him and his college friend Pete Alonso to matching "Met for life" deals.In this week's mailbag, we have two great questions from Hits Different listeners. If you'd like to hear YOUR burning baseball question answered on the show, please send it in, we can't wait to hear it!! We are also once again asking Reed Garrett to let Kaitlyn follow him on Instagram. I would never say anything mean in the comments and in fact would like to say something nice.
