A big birthday weekend all recapped including what Tim Kurkjian dressed up as for his granddaughter's big day. Plus, a callback to Tim's favorite artist of all time, Pitbull (if you know, you know). 

Aaron Judge holds an obscure record we find out and Shohei Ohtani always continues to impress us all. I mean, seriously, can you have bad show when those two come up in conversation? 

Our Quirkjians include something fun from you, the members of our family. You can always submit something for the show at GreatGameOrWhat.com and maybe it will be read on the air! On This Date in baseball history includes some high and low lights of our game, which is surprising for the ever-positive Tim Kurkjian. 

Lastly, we get a Team Tim celebrating a new name in the game, we absolutely love these witty teams! Thanks for listening and for being part of our family!

Is This A Great Game, Or What?

A big birthday weekend had Tim in a costume, we had a great weekend in baseball and an even better day in history.

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!

Tim Kurkjian's Raw Reaction To Pete Alonso's 300th HR

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/cbc4b0f7-f6d1-4483-b456-b4c70142061b/transcript

Todd Frazier continues to be one of our favorite guests to have on each and every year. Now three years running for this guy! He's hilarious. He's insightful. He's pretty much a member of the Kurkjian family at this point. Todd, the former Major Leaguer turned talented and hilarious broadcaster, never ceases to amaze us with his stories.

Obviously, we start with his referee and umpire calls because, why not?? It's one of Tim Kurkjian's favorite things in the entire world. And of course, we have to pick on Tim a little bit. We share pins from Little League World Series visits of the past and have a whole lot of fun along the way.

We also take a moment to hear more about Todd's experience surrounding September 11th, being just 50 miles from NYC. What did that look like for him in high school? The man has many levels, ain't no doubt about it.

We hear about his matchup with J.R. Smith on the basketball court in high school. Something that, in the first half, seemed like an even match. It all went downhill from there!

Thank you to Todd for his time, and of course, thanks to YOU for listening, watching, and being a part of the family!

Todd Frazier Matched Up Against J.R. Smith In High School

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/33238bfd-6258-47da-b4b8-b4c5012e1e18/transcript

The Brewers clinched with a MASSIVE shutout win, and the Rays clinched too thanks to a walk-off (which is always fun). Anthony Volpe may have found his footing, and Lindor is fast approaching Piazza in that Mets jersey.

As for Quirkjians, the Reds gotta figure this pitching thing out after three games of getting trounced. More immaculate inning action, this time for the Diamondbacks. Plus Stetson gets quite the love on our show thanks to two of their high-strikeout pitching alumni.

On This Date, we bet we’ve never had THIS many big things happen. We roll out Cal Jr., both Griffeys, Bob Brenly and plenty of others. Plus, a Stan Williams fact that you didn’t know. He’s basically the Arya Stark of baseball (for our Game of Thrones fans out there).

The Wheel of Kurkjian brings up old ballparks, among many other things, but most important is this week’s Team Tim. On Tuesday, Major League Baseball will celebrate one of its greats, Roberto Clemente. Tim created a team that involves the best players to share a number with Clemente in a Team Tim that actually involves our next guest!
