Former Orioles GM Dan Duquette was on our show yesterday and we cover the reply to his reply. from O's writer Jacob Calvin Meyer. (Top of Show)

(07:16) The Red Sox-Blue Jays game was delayed in one of the most bizarre ways you'll ever see. The scoreboard had the wrong number of outs, and it led to a Red Sox run.

(18:38) We want to show the Rays some love. They've won seven straight!

(20:24) Tarik Skubal made his Dodgers home debut last night. Let's talk about it.

(23:18) Braves starting pitcher Bryce Elder clearly tapped his head for an ABS challenge and the umps missed it. It basically ended up costing the Braves the game.

(29:15) We zip through a number of injury updates for Atlanta pitchers.

(32:31) Padres slugger Fernando Tatís Jr. opened his stance back up and his numbers are soaring. There's a lot to like with the Friars right now.

(39:43) Red Sox fans should be fired up about this spicy Craig Breslow quote after an aggressive trade deadline and acquiring Adley Rutschman.

(42:45) Former Red Sox manager Alex Cora was on Dirt From The Dugout to talk about life after managing the organization.

(46:08) Giants manager Tony Vitello addressed his decision to pull Blake Tidwell from an appearance, rather than letting him finish the inning.

(51:56) Tough break for the Rangers, as Nathan Eovaldi is headed to the 15-day IL.

(54:30) The Angels have fired multiple pitching coaches, including Mike Maddux.

(57:09) Rockies outfielder Jake McCarthy won the NL Player of the Week award…and didn't know it was a thing. Plus, the Diamondbacks designated Paul Sewald for assignment.
