Monday Night Live: World Series 2021 As Atlanta Braves Take on Houston Astros

WE HAVE A WORLD SERIES! Riz & Dawg bring you Monday Night Live as the Atlanta Braves got ready to meet the Houston Astros in the 2021 World Series. How did these teams end up here despite having two of the oldest managers in MLB? The guys broke it down. They also were their own harshest critics of their pre-playoff MLB bracket picks, which did not go well! We have seen some of the old-school thinking in baseball lead the Astros and Braves to the precipice of the championship. Riz & Dawg explained how some of the theories that spurned SABRmetrics and Moneyball morphed into the analytics overload happening today, and where that premise might have taken a left turn. Do the names of Hall of Famers Kirby Puckett and Frank Thomas excite you? They're the examples in a discussion you do not want to miss. There was also a Diehard Dads segment carried by Riz this time, and a dedication of the show to Debbie Rizzo ahead of her birthday. Join us in wishing Deb a happy birthday! Dawg kicked it off with Veteran of the Day. It was USMC Sergeant Matt Butler, a combat correspondent and social media pioneer who served 24 years in the Corps and now heads Fordham’s Military and Veterans Affairs office. Go Rams! This one streamed live on the Facebook group, so Uncle Paul was there in the comments. As with all the shows, it's also available on YouTube, iTunes and Spotify (links are below).
