Rookie Cam Schlittler Faces Second Elimination Game

Blair & Barker

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker open the show discussing Aaron Judge's clutch homerun to help the New York Yankees take Game 3, Louis Varland and Alejandro Kirk's approaches to pitching Judge, and the expectations for Varland making his second start for the Blue Jays. Then, Northeastern University Baseball head coach Mike Glavine joins the guys (9:30) to chat about recruiting Yankees rookie starter Cam Schlittler, why he could be a perfect fit to pitch in an elimination game, Cam's pitch mix with his size, and what Mike has learned from his brother Tom Glavine passing on the knowledge to his current pitchers. Afterwards, former MLB pitcher and MLB Network analyst Jake Peavy (29:35) shares his thoughts on switching mindsets from game to game in the postseason, pitching to Aaron Judge, why the Yankees are getting comfortable with being on the other side of an elimination match, and the difficulties of a bullpen day as a pitcher.
