What are the most heartbreaking losses in the history of sports? How high does the Mariners defeat at the hands on the Toronto Blue Jays rank on the list?

A lot to discuss including the biggest takeaway in the NFL from Week 7, if Albert Pujols would make a good manager, and an early steam chaser for Week 8 in the Arcand Fire.

Its all about parity in the final hour starting with the NBA and how it's bad not to have an established favorite in the league. Are there any teams that you can guarantee will be championship contenders? Then, the longer the NFL season goes, the harder it is to find the truly great teams among others discussed in the Arcand Fire. And, a troubling trend of crime rings for Lego products in Clickbait.

Should Brad Marchand be boo'd by fans in his return to Boston tonight?

It's still thought of as the World Series to which all other World Series' are compared. The Boston Red Sox vs the Cincinnati Reds. A classic 7-game series that had as much drama, controversy, rain, Hall of Famers, and unforgettable moments as baseball fans could ever hope for. The Big Red Machine was a juggernaut in '75 led by Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, Pete Rose, Tony Perez and their Hall of Fame skipper Sparky Anderson. Yet, the upstart Red Sox were matching them at every turn with Rookie of the Year/MVP Fred Lynn, Yaz, El Tiante and Carlton Fisk playing inspiring baseball. The only thing that could stop either of these teams was Mother Nature. Rain interrupted the series on mud;tiple occasions, but once they got on the field… some of the most thrilling baseball ever played was on full display. None more thrilling than the 12th inning home run by Carlton Fisk that ended a captivating Game 6 and sent the series to a 7th game. The shot of Fisk waving the ball fair as it hugged the left field line and then bounced off the foul pole is a moment that has stood the test of time for half a century and will be forever remembered by baseball fans as long as they still play this game. The starting pitcher for Game 7 for Boston was Bill Lee… the Spaceman. One of the gams true characters and at this time, one of the games best left-handed starters. The winner of 17 games in 1975, Lee had thrown 8 beautiful innings in Game 2 only to leave in the 9th when the Reds rallied for a 3-2 win. Now, in Game 7, he once again tossed 6 innings and came out with the lead in the 7th only to see the Reds rally again. Two wonderful starts for Lee, two no decisions… and a lifetime of what if's… 50 years later, the Spaceman is still as outrageous and entertaining as he was back in Boston in the mid 70's. He tells us how he couldn't stand Don Zimmer as a manager and how wearing a Rolling Stones shirt cost him and the Red Sox the 1972 AL East Division. He recalls how as a teenager he had a job as locksmith and locked some of the most famous people in the world out of their own houses. He tells us how he almost died on the pitching mound pitching for the Savannah Bananas and how he's lucky to still be alive. And mostly, he just tells us all sorts of things you can't believe happened… but they did.  One of the most revered and loved Red Sox pitchers in their storied history… Bill The Spaceman Lee on the Past Our Prime podcast… Listen and download wherever you get your podcasts.

The show opened with a fun chat about how “knowing your freeways” has become a strange Southern California brag — and Bellio was hilariously “raffled off.” Heavy snow hit Mammoth Mountain with up to 22 inches, even though ski season hasn't started yet. A bizarre story followed about a man using a blowtorch and gasoline in an attempted arson at a California McDonald's. The hour wrapped with Shohei Ohtani taking the mound for Game 4 at Dodger Stadium, a nod to Dave Roberts' historic 2004 Red Sox comeback, and a reminder that Los Angeles is just 1,000 days away from hosting the Olympics.

The full edition The Christian Arcand Show for Friday, October 17th, 2025.

With Alex Bregman opting out, Arcand is worried about the Red Sox lineup not having any stalwarts and Alex Cora needing to shift around the lineup for another season.

A lot to discuss including an update on the MLB postseason, Tarik Skubal's seemingly murky future, and who would win in a fight between Jaylen Brown and Joe Mazzulla in the Arcand Fire.

Christian starts the final hour with some nervousness that's setting in for him about the Red Sox and their offseason. If Alex Bregman doesn't return and Craig Breslow doesn't go after big free agents, it'll be a tough look and a tough roster to give Alex Cora. Then, assessing the future of Tarik Skubal and analyzing who would win in a fight between Jaylen Brown and Joe Mazzulla in Arcand Fire. And, any skeptics about aliens might have their reasoning changed with a new documentary in Clickbait.

The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday night and are now just one win away from repeating as National League champions, with hopes of back-to-back World Series titles in their sight. The Brew Crew will need to channel some of the 2004 Boston Red Sox magic to overcome their 0–3 deficit but it won't be easy, especially considering who they'll be facing in Game 4.On this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss yet another stellar pitching performance from the Dodgers, with their staff allowing only one run in Game 3.

Craig Breslow says the Red Sox cannot get complacent and bring back the same roster next season. Patriots' Linebacker Robert Spillane thinks Drake Maye is one of the best Quarterbacks in the league. He discusses how each member of the defense wants to dominate their position, and the rest falls into place from there.

Wiggy is excited that Mike Vrabel is telling the Patriots to block out the outside noise. Robert Spillane talks about the impact Drake Maye is having on the Patriots. and how the defense works on playing as a unit. Craig Breslow says the Red Sox cannot get complacent this offseason.

HR 1 - Can the Patriots win the AFC? | Scheim, Curtis, and Courtney's leads HR 2 - Robert Spillane joins | They Said It and The News HR 3 - How long can Bill Belichick stay with Jordon Hudson? HR 4 - Beat the Geek | Nick Kostos joins

Tom and Jack Brown of the Never Weres are back to discuss the Red Sox roster now that Alex Bregman has announced he is opting out. Then they talk about the Dodgers dominance in the NLCS before finally talking about the road-team dominated ALCS between the Blue Jays and Mariners.

In this week's new remarks, we observe how quaint the racial dialogue of 2018 was (or at least your host's was) in light of what was coming down the line for the nation. After a brief discussion of protest and backlash, we proceed to flash back to episode 72's discussion of how the same message can be heard differently in the context of race (that's the quaint part), revisit an oft-injured left-hander who was a low-key Red Sox great, and drop by Casey Stengel sailing uneasily through the great hurricane of 1938.The Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine. America's brighter mirror, baseball reflects, anticipates, and even mocks the stories we tell ourselves about our world today. Baseball Prospectus's Steven Goldman shares his obsessions: history from inside and outside of the game, politics, stats, and Casey Stengel quotations. Along the way, we'll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can't get anybody out? 

Chris Scheim takes his morning 'Lead' take to give his stance on how the Alex Bregman opt-out will play out w/ the Sox this offseason

Was Joe Mazzulla being a jerk? // How do the Red Sox need to approach the offseason? // Odell Beckham takes a shot at the Giants and Tua Tagovailoa is walking back comments // Judd Sirott, voice of the Boston Bruins, joins us to talk about the hot start to the season for the B's

The crew discusses the Joe Mazzulla decision for the media members to face the coaches in the media game where the coaches absolutely dominated and Curtis believes it was a major douche move. Things spiral as men are now giving Courtney recommendations for breast feeding and we begin with Scheim's lead about the upcoming Red Sox offseason decisions.

The News gets totally derailed by wedding talk. The Red Sox need to keep Jason Varitek this offseason and make a few strong moves to keep themselves in contention. The crew discusses a few legendary moments between the Patriots and Titans.

Wiggy knows what the Sox will do if Alex Bregman departs

Alex Bregman will enter free agency and signs have pointed to him wanting to return, but do Red Sox fans feel the same way? And what would a loss of Alex Bregman do to the clubhouse?

A gage on Red Sox fans' desire to bring back Alex Bregman after he announced he will opt out and enter free agency. Also, the Sox still need a right-handed power bat with or without Bregman and that should be the focus over finding a new clubhouse leader. Then, the President of the United States made a threat regarding Boston's involvement tin the World Cup for tonight's New England Nightly News. And, it's very odd for the Sox to retain nearly all their coaches with the amount of errors and base running mistakes they made last season.

Even though Alex Bregman decided to opt out and gave all the signs of wanting to return to Boston, Arcand doesn't believe Bregman will be back with the Red Sox. Why Scott Boras and the price should drive the Sox away? Then, almost everyone on the Sox coaching staff are currently expected to return, but that isn't the best strategy when trying to eliminate team errors. And, Teoscar Hernandez has the most unique reason for not staying with the Dodgers in their team hotel in Milwaukee.

The full edition of The Christian Arcand Show for Wednesday, October 15th, 2025.

While the Patriots set their sights on Tennessee, the trade deadline slowly approaches and Mike Vrabel is being very coy about what will go down. How much more say will Vrabel have over Eliot wolf? Then, in the Arcand Fire, James Franklin gets fired, the MLB LCS gets an update, and Malcolm Brogdon gets a farewell by going over all of his nicknames. And, "The Big Dumper" Cal Raleigh could have a unique promotional crossover for Mariners' fans in Clickbait.

We got 90 minutes tonight and Arcand shares the thought that crossed his mind about the lack of drama the Patriots have dealt with all season. How refreshing is it to not have off-field drama and will this synergy hold up even with the trade deadline approaching? Then, another reason for Red Sox fans to be mad about not spending big is the fact that they brought in so much revenue, but never spent any of it. And, Arcand puts himself in the media's shoes and shares how he would've played against the Celtics' coaches.

Christian reacts to Penn State firing James Franklin, updates both the ALCS and NLCS, and remembering Malcom Brogon as he retired in Arcand Fire.

(00:00) Zolak & Bertrand are joined by Revolution Interim Head Coach Pablo Moreira. (12:52) Craig Breslow says he wants to go after top end starting pitching.
