Only a couple of days left in the baseball season, and we can’t contain ourselves! The National League Wild Card race is electric. The American League West is insane. The AL Central is absurd. It just doesn’t stop when it comes to the excitement this time of year brings. I have a feeling we might even get a Tim Kurkjian voice crack in this episode!

Big milestones for Eugenio Suárez and Christian Walker, while Yordan Álvarez is SO close to something very special this season, despite his team flirting with a losing record. The Rays are not to be forgotten, but to Tim, the National League is unstoppable.

The Quirkjians talk Mason Miller’s dominance and the bruises Randy Arozarena has picked up throughout the season. Plus, would it really be an episode if we didn’t talk about the strikeouts happening all over baseball?

On This Date in Baseball History, we talk Rafael Palmeiro, the Nen father-son duo, and Hank Aaron and his brother. Lots of family in this episode, and we love that!

Then, we introduce an amazing finish to Tim’s Alphabest! Tell us who you think is the best by following us on social media @GreatGameOrWhat and answering the poll.

Thank you so much for watching and listening, and as always, thanks for being a part of our family!

Pat Sajak is our esteemed guest! We talked a lot of baseball, including his growing up in Chicago, becoming an Orioles and Dodgers fan and even his love for a Florida team! He loves the game and it shows.

We also talked Savannah Bananas, due to a personal connection and his love of the game. Cal Ripken Jr. is an important name in today's interview, they have a very close relationship. And those two to more than just baseball!

First pitches and bobbleheads, Wheel of Kurkjian probably owes some royalties. Tim and Jeff brought up Tim's All Show Host Team to get Sajak's yay or nay on it! Plus we hear the impact his years on television did for the fans.

Thank you so much for listening as always, and thank you for being a part of our family!

Pat Sajak Took Cal Ripken Jr. To A Hockey Game

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/7ba2af55-7e23-4e7c-8ea7-b4cc011afcb8/transcript

With one week left in the regular season, Tim Kurkjian thinks the Padres are a team a lot of people aren’t talking about enough. José Ramírez adds another chapter to the conversation about whether he is the greatest Cleveland baseball player ever. What do you say? And after seeing them again in person, Tim is convinced the Rays’ style of play is something to smile about.

Ben Rice has 39 homers, just like a friend of the show who was pretty close with his prediction. Payton Tolle might be our favorite player ever. He is simply a quote machine. And Tim breaks down the latest on the labor negotiations, and they are NOT going well. Bregman, Glasnow and the Phillies all play a role in today’s Quirkjians.

On This Date in Baseball History is STACKED, featuring both Fielders, Walter Johnson (who would’ve guessed?) and a National Anthem singer you might not have heard of yet. Then, on the Wheel of Kurkjian, we hear about Tito Francona and the minor leagues, with plenty of great stories from both.

And last but certainly not least, Tim gives us his Team Tim of All Show Hosts in honor of our guest tomorrow, Pat Sajak.

Thank you so much for listening, watching, supporting and caring. And as always, thank you for being a part of our family!

2027 Doesn't Look Good For Baseball

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/ae73ec4c-f495-4bd0-bcf4-b4cb018b10e7/transcript

The Yankees, Dodgers, Brewers, and White Sox all have big takeaways this week on "Is This A Great Game, Or What?" Tim Kurkjian breaks it all down, along with just how incredible Junior Caminero has been over the last week. Plus, Tim's raw reaction to Pete Alonso's 300th homer AT Citi Field.

Payton Tolle might be Jeff's new favorite player, and it has a lot to do with his postgame press conferences AND the way he plays the game. PCA obviously makes an appearance in the Quirkjians because when is he not? Murakami strikes out a lot, but it hasn't stopped him or the White Sox from leading the AL Central.

DOUBLE (maybe triple) the Team Tim today, starting with On This Date in Baseball History. Tim Kurkjian puts together a team consisting of big happenings on this date, and we didn't realize just how big it was. This is a star-studded lineup.

The Alphabest consists of our final installment, Z! During Three Cards In The Bathroom, we talk current and former players, fathers and sons, grandparents and grandchildren. A fascinating correlation with this one.

We wrap with a double Team Tim. Yes, you read that right. Even Jeff gets in on the action, making good on a promise of a team consisting of Roberto Clemente Award winners!

Thanks for listening or watching, and as always, thanks for being a part of our family!
