Shohei Ohtani continues to do things no one has ever seen before. For the second straight week, Ohtani hit a leadoff home run on the day he pitched, becoming the only starting pitcher in MLB history to do it in back-to-back games. He now ranks 3rd in Dodgers history for career leadoff homers in less than 2.5 years. On the mound, he delivered another strong outing, lowering his ERA to an incredible 0.82!

Just about everything went right for the Rangers over the first eight innings. They hit for power, they collected hits with runners in scoring position, and their starting pitcher, MacKenzie Gore, had one of the best starts of his career. While the lineup was a bit unorthodox, with Joc Pederson leading off, it was effective. Pederson hit a leadoff homer. The way the Rangers won is the blueprint for what they can do.

Chris McMonigle opens the latest episode examining where the Yankees stand after the first month of the season, how expectations have changed, and why Aaron Boone can no longer wait to move Trent Grisham out of the leadoff spot despite underlying numbers not matching his poor stat line.

Leila Rahimi and Marshall Harris discussed a variety of sports topics in the 5 On It segment.
The guys discuss Taylor Ward's success so far this year.
Paul Valle joins the show for his thoughts on opening day and what kind of potential the roster has in the months to come.
Carson Benge making the Mets' Opening Day roster sets the tone for a lively baseball-heavy conversation as Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber dig into what fans should realistically expect from a fast-rising rookie. They break down the excitement of a debut on Opening Day, the pressure that comes with first-round pedigree, and why a really good everyday player can still feel underrated when expectations soar. The discussion expands into the Yankees' lineup questions, from whether Aaron Judge belongs in the leadoff spot to what the future holds for Jason Dominguez and the team's young outfield depth. Along the way, Evan and Tiki mix sharp baseball takes with the kind of loose, funny back-and-forth that keeps the show moving, including prospect patience, trade hypotheticals, and a spirited argument over whether reclining your seat on an airplane is rude.

Shotgun Spratling and Kasey Kazliner return on the Dedeaux Download Podcast to break down another unblemished weekend for USC baseball as they improve to 11-0 on the season after recording their first four-game series sweep since 1978! They also talk with junior second baseman and leadoff hitter Abbrie Covarrubias about his and the team's hot start to the season. The Trojans' starting pitching was again electric as Mason Edwards, Grant Govel and Andrew Johnson all three were spectacular and Chase Herrell joined the mix with five scoreless innings on Thursday. The Trojans nearly had their second no-hitter of the season as Edwards and Sax Matson combined to throw TEN hitless innings Friday, but the game remained scoreless until the top of the 11th inning when USC broke the game open with six runs. That left the only question being whether the Trojans could get the final three outs before Cal Poly could get its first hit. They fell one pitch shy. Freshman Diego Velazquez got the first out but a grounder up the middle bounced off second base and out of the grasp of a sliding Covarrubias for an infield single. On the next pitch, Velazquez got a ground ball for a 5-4-3 double play to end the game. After being bottled up Friday, USC's bats responded in a big way, pounding out 21 hits and scoring 16 runs -- both season highs -- while Govel again was outstanding on the mound despite giving up his first earned run of the season on a solo homer late in his seven-inning start. The Sunday matchup appeared to be going similarly to the dominant performances USC had shown the rest of the weekend until the ninth inning. After Johnson had been lights out, allowing one run on four hits in 6.2 innings, the Trojans held a 6-1 lead going into the ninth inning. That's when the Mustangs finally showed some life, scoring five runs with the help of a two-out error to tie the game and send it into extra innings for the second time in the series. The 10th inning remained scoreless, but USC burst through with a pair of runs in the 11th and freshman Gavin Lauridsen closed it out for the 8-6 win to complete the sweetp. Shotgun and Kasey break down all the action and look forward to the upcoming matchups against UC Irvine and the start of Big Ten play against Illinois.

Jackson Holliday and Jordan Westburg would have been two potential leadoff options for the Orioles, but they aren't available right now. Does that leave Gunnar Henderson as the only appropriate choice?
A discussion the Cardinals and a chilly Hot Stove eventually ignites with this completely unrelated question: How far into your list of the best players in the history of Major League Baseball do you get before mentioning Rickey Henderson? He's the all-time leader in runs, he's the greatest leadoff hitter in the game's history, and he almost lapped everyone but Lou Brock when it comes to career stolen bases. The name of the game is scoring runs, and few (if any) did it better than Henderson. That's part of the discussion with Matt Snyder, CBS sports writer and author of the new book, "The Leadoff Man: The history of, the evolution of, and fun with the greatest catalyst in sports." (The book is available here.) In his book, Snyder chronicles the changing nature of the leadoff spot, from the speedy contact hitters of yore to the bashers and mashers of the modern game, from the tradition of putting infielder there regardless of their ability to get on base to the analytics of prioritizing the most at-bats for the player who makes the fewest outs. Henderson leads the way with a style of play that was both ahead of his peers and ahead of its time. At about the 23-minute mark, the conversation speeds from leading men to discussing the current offseason and the Cardinals' willingness to trade their leadoff man, Brendan Donovan. The Hot Stove has been sluggish, even stagnant. And that prompts an impromptu suggestion for how to spur deals during the winter meetings with tools already present in the current Collective Bargaining Agreement. No cap needed. Although talk about a cap is going to dominate the next 11 months, and that is where the podcast hurries toward its conclusion by describing how it's not the tycoon-like Dodgers that signal the lack of competitive balance and economic concerns about the game. The Cardinals could be the canary. To which, Snyder flips the question: How deep into a list of the most recognizable baseball teams does one get before naming the Cardinals?
