Pete Alonso Is ON FIRE! Orioles-Rays, Ravens Defense & Rashod Bateman Fallout

Pete Alonso is absolutely carrying the Orioles right now — but can Baltimore make a late-season push? On this episode of Dad Bods, Crab Cakes & Sports, John, Jason, and Mike break down another wild night in Baltimore sports, starting with the Orioles and their impressive matchup against the Tampa Bay Rays. We talk about Pete Alonso's incredible hot streak, his leadership, MVP possibilities, Dylan Beavers' clutch performance, the Orioles' pitching and defense, and whether Baltimore finally has a formula that can keep them in the Wild Card race. We also get into the controversial MLB replay and umpiring decisions, including the Pete Alonso home-run controversy, and debate whether Major League Baseball needs better technology to get these calls right. Then it's on to the Baltimore Ravens preseason, where the defense dominated the Vikings. We break down Jesse Minter's new Ravens defense, five sacks, two turnovers, the attention to detail under the new coaching staff, Tyler Loop's bounce-back performance, Ryan Eckley, Snoop Huntley vs. Devin Fagnano, and what Baltimore should do at quarterback. And there's plenty more Ravens conversation, including the ongoing comparisons between Jesse Minter's coaching staff and John Harbaugh's previous regime, plus the latest controversy surrounding Rashod Bateman and what it could mean for the Ravens and the NFL. We also pay tribute to Trey Mancini as he announces his retirement and discuss his impact on the Orioles and Baltimore baseball. Plus: Dad Bod questions, karaoke songs, smash burgers, Old Bay eggs, fantasy football, and plenty of the completely unfiltered sports arguments you've come to expect from Dad Bods, Crab Cakes & Sports. 🔥 Topics covered: Pete Alonso and his incredible Orioles hot streak Baltimore Orioles vs. Tampa Bay Rays Orioles Wild Card race Dylan Beavers and clutch hitting Orioles pitching and defense MLB replay and umpiring controversy Pete Alonso home-run controversy Baltimore Ravens preseason Ravens vs. Minnesota Vikings Jesse Minter and the new Ravens defense Ravens sacks and turnovers Tyler Loop and Ryan Eckley Snoop Huntley vs. Devin Fagnano Ravens quarterback competition Rashod Bateman and NFL discipline Jesse Minter vs. John Harbaugh Trey Mancini retirement Fantasy football MLB and NFL news Baltimore sports Follow, subscribe, rate, and review Dad Bods, Crab Cakes & Sports wherever you listen to podcasts.
