B&C Morning Show: Getting Back In The Saddle Again
After taking some time off to celebrate our country's independence, this morning marked the return of the Boomer and Carton Morning Extravaganza, complete with the two main attractions -- the Blonde Bomber and his "little buddy" Craigie.
The guys got things started with a brief recap of what has taken place on the baseball diamond with regards to the locals. First on the docket was the Yanks, who have won six of their last seven games after taking two of three from Buck Showalter and his Orioles over the weekend. The Yanks would have swept the O's had it not been for Mariano Rivera's inability to close it out yesterday in the Bronx. But hey, it happens.
The Mets got yet another impressive start from Jeremy Hefner -- who has been killing it on the mound since the beginning of June -- and used it for a 2-1 win over the Brewers in Milwaukee, where the Mets took two of three from the Brew-Crew over the weekend.
The Mets also welcomed back "Viva" Ike Davis after his demotion to Las Vegas. Craig doesn't like what the move could mean for Josh Satin's playing time, leading him to question the Mets' thinking, rather loudly.
Craig also ruffled the Booms' feathers a bit by referencing "jackassery" with regards to his radio partner's behavior this morning when discussing the news that David Wright has been named the starting third baseman in the MLB All-Star Game.
And that right there folks, is what we call a well-rounded show open...
