Dwight “Doc” Gooden sits down with Jimmy to open up about life on and off the mound—rising from teenage phenom to Cy Young & Triple Crown winner, the wild ride of the '86 Mets, and the redemption arc that followed years of addiction. Doc shares why missing the 1986 World Series parade became a turning point, how therapy (starting in 2019) helped him finally forgive himself, and the daily practices that keep him sober today.They trade stories from the Yankees–Red Sox 2004 ALCS, debate Gary Sheffield's Hall of Fame case, and compare Doc's instant impact to today's fireballers like Paul Skenes. Doc relives his 1996 Yankees no-hitter—pitched the day before his father's surgery—and reflects on loyalty to both Mets and Yankees, his love for speaking to young people, and being present for his kids and grandkids. If you love baseball, resilience, and real talk about growth, this one's special. 00:00 Introduction02:00 Yankees–Red Sox memories & Gary Sheffield's legacy06:00 The '86 Mets and life in the spotlight10:30 Addiction, missing the parade, and hitting rock bottom16:00 Choosing sobriety and healing through therapy25:00 The rise: Rookie years, Cy Young, and peak dominance27:00 Throwing a no-hitter for his dad in 199633:00 Life after baseball & lessons in redemption38:00 Outro

Send us a text#Mets fans like we are might be relieved that the nightmare finish to the season is finally over. Sure making the playoffs would have been great, but #Reds deserved it more & getting spanked by #Dodgers would have been up next for the boys from Citi Field. #Phillies look good to Gordon, Mark is between Dodgers and #Padres.  Neither of think give the #Cubs a chance and both of us still doubt #Brewers which is totally unfair. In the AL #BlueJays & #Mariners finally didn't choke!  #Yankees #RedSox wild card series is delicious as is #Guardians - #Tigers after the Motor City Kitties gave up the AL Central crown that seemed theirs for the taking a couple of weeks ago. #Astros will sit out this year's #MLB playoffs as will #Rangers.  We had 4 players (Raleigh, Judge, Ohtani, and Schwarber) hit 50+ homers w Eugenio Suarez falling just short with 49. It would have been the 1st time there were 5 players who hit 50 HRs. Paul Skenes of the #Pirates finished w a 1.97 ERA which we will talk about for years after he wins the 2025 NL Cy Young award. There will be robo umps in #baseball next season. A challenge system will be in use with 2 challenges per team per game.  It's been a long time coming and will make a difference in a positive way we think. We make our picks in both leagues so enjoy the episode! Intro & Outro music this season courtesy of Mercury Maid!

Hour 3 with Donny Football: Noah Hiles thinks that Paul Skenes is the best pitcher on the planet and had the best season of any Pirates pitcher to win the Cy Young. Noah thinks if the Pirates make the playoffs with Paul Skenes, he could win MVP. We have a little bit of FOMO about the Steelers playing in Ireland. Do you like international games? Donny thinks we could get to 16 international games. Austin doesn't like this and doesn't like teams losing a home game.

Noah Hiles thinks that Paul Skenes is the best pitcher on the planet and had the best season of any Pirates pitcher to win the Cy Young. Noah would rather have an ERA under 2.00 than Skenes win his 11th game. Noah thinks this is the best individual start to a career we have seen in Pittsburgh sports history.

Off The Bench is back weekdays from 10a to 11a followed by The Stone Shields Show from 11a to noon! Under the glaring lights of Great American Ball Park, the Cincinnati Reds' playoff dreams flickered and faded in the cruel twilight of extra innings. On September 24, 2025, a fired-up crowd of 30,725 watched in stunned silence as the Pittsburgh Pirates snatched a 4-3 victory in the 11th, delivering a dagger to Cincinnati's NL wild-card hopes. Tied with Arizona and just one game behind the Mets entering the night, the Reds now stare at a precarious half-game deficit with only five contests left—a loss that feels like the backbreaker in a season of tantalizing what-ifs. The evening began as a pitcher's duel for the ages, pitting Reds ace Hunter Greene against Pirates phenom Paul Skenes, the NL Cy Young frontrunner. Greene, battling for his 8th win, scattered five hits over six innings, allowing two earned runs while fanning seven. But Skenes was untouchable, surrendering just four hits in six scoreless frames, whiffing seven and etching his name in franchise lore with his 211th strikeout—a Pirates record for a righty. Pittsburgh scratched out a 2-0 lead in the second on Bryan Reynolds' RBI single and Oneil Cruz's sacrifice fly, quieting the home faithful. Hope ignited in the eighth. Down 2-0, Noelvi Marte unleashed chaos with his first career inside-the-park homer, a liner off the wall that caromed wildly into left-center, allowing him to circle the bases untouched. The GABP erupted. Then, in the ninth, Tyler Stephenson crushed a solo shot off closer Dennis Santana, knotting it at 2-2 and forcing extras. "Stephenson's blast was pure adrenaline," Reds manager Terry Francona said postgame. "We had momentum." But baseball's heartless script twisted in the 10th. Jack Suwinski's RBI double plated the go-ahead run for a 3-2 Pirates edge. The Reds clawed back on Gavin Lux's sacrifice fly, tying it once more at 3-3. Agony peaked in the 11th: Spencer Horwitz's leadoff double scored Reynolds—his third run of the night—for a 4-3 lead. Cincinnati loaded the bases with two outs, hearts pounding, only for Marte to ground into a momentum-crushing force out against Yohan Ramirez. Final out. Ballgame over.

Dorin Dickerson and Nicholas "Harry" Callas react to SP Paul Skenes' final start of the 2025 season for the Pirates. Should the team consider making him a captain in 2026?

Austin's Answers – What did Teryl Austin say to the media earlier today? Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo from the PG joined the show. Ray's guess is that Joey Porter Jr. will not play in Dublin, but DeShon Elliott has a ‘pretty good' chance to. The guys asked Ray about TJ Watt moving around and if it's more about the playing not wanting to do it. Is Keeanu Benton battling for roster relevancy? Ray believes we could see more Daniel Ekuale as the season moves on. The guys asked Ray about the scheme on both sides and if it's all working. Ray doesn't think the Steelers have everything figured out this weekend – he picked Minnesota to win the game 27-16 on Sunday. Bucco Minute – We just got done watching the best season a Pirates pitcher has ever had. The Reds beat the Pirates in the finale to avoid the sweep.

On Off The Bench and The Stone Shields Show today we discuss the Reds crushing loss to the Pirates last night, Paul Skenes vs. Hunter Greene tonight, the latest Bengals news and more! Off The Bench is back weekdays from 10a to 11a followed by The Stone Shields Show from 11a to noon! In a gut-wrenching setback for Cincinnati's playoff dreams, the Reds fell 4-2 to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night at Great American Ball Park, snapping their five-game winning streak and dropping them a full game behind the New York Mets for the NL's final wild-card spot. The loss couldn't have come at a worse time, with only a handful of games left in the regular season and the Reds clinging to faint postseason hopes. The game unraveled early for Reds starter Brady Singer, who imploded in the second inning, surrendering four runs on five hits—including a two-run homer from Pirates shortstop Oneil Cruz—that chased him after just 1.1 innings. Singer's command faltered, ballooning his season ERA to 3.95 and leaving Cincinnati in an early hole. Pittsburgh's Johan Oviedo, making his eighth start, steadied the ship for the visitors, allowing just two runs over five innings despite a shaky Reds lineup. Cincinnati clawed back briefly when sparkplug shortstop Elly De La Cruz crushed a 415-foot two-run homer in the bottom of the second, his second blast in as many games after ending a 43-game drought. But the Reds' offense sputtered thereafter, stranding runners in key spots, including a bases-loaded threat in the sixth snuffed out by rookie reliever Hunter Barco's debut gem. The bullpen held firm, but it wasn't enough against a Pirates squad playing spoiler. Tonight's game (6:40 p.m. ET) pits two of baseball's brightest young arms in a must-win for Cincinnati: Reds ace Hunter Greene (7-4, 2.74 ERA) versus Pirates phenom Paul Skenes (10-10, 2.03 ERA). Greene, the flamethrowing righty, has been lights-out lately, fanning 10+ in four of his last five starts, but faces a tall order against Skenes—the 2024 NL Rookie of the Year and Cy Young frontrunner—who's chasing a sub-2.00 ERA in his final outing. Expect triple-digit heat, high drama, and a low-scoring affair that could swing the wild-card fate. Amid the baseball buzz, Cincinnati sports mourns the tragic loss of Bengals legend Rudi Johnson, who died by suicide at 45 on Tuesday, per police reports. The fourth-round pick (2001) became a Pro Bowl powerhouse, holding the franchise single-season rushing record (1,458 yards in 2005) and ranking fourth all-time with 5,742 yards. Teammates like Carson Palmer hailed his "joyful presence," while Chad Johnson tweeted a heartfelt tribute. Bengals president Mike Brown called him a "dear friend" and "excellent running back." Johnson's foundation aided local causes, leaving a legacy beyond the field. RIP, Rudy—your spirit endures. Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Track Name Holy (Trap).

Paul Skenes is making his final start of the season tonight – would Matt rather have an ERA under 2 or a winning record? Matt wants to see the Pirates play to win tonight for the integrity of the game and the playoff race in the National League. Will Don Kelly be a selling point to free agents in the offseason?

Ben Roethlisberger bashed Broderick Jones for his tape on Sunday. Are we close to declaring him a bust? Chris was the biggest Jones fan of them all and he still wants to wait out what he can do with more games at left tackle. How many guys on the offensive line have actually done well under the coaching of Pat Meyer? Is it just another instance of bad coaching? Poni said the Steelers should have jumped on Hank Fraley before his coaching career took off. Chris doesn't think Troy Fautanu has been much better than Jones. Judge Donny – Should the Pirates pull Paul Skenes tonight the moment his ERA goes below 2? Mike Florio from Pro Football Focus joined the show. Why can't the Steelers or Vikings go over to Dublin until Friday? Mike told a story about his first Steelers-Vikings game, which are his two favorite teams. The guys think it's odd than an industry like the NFL didn't make sure that every international location had suitable facilities to allow the teams to practice well ahead of time in that city. Mike talked about teams dealing with giving away a home game in favor of playing internationally. Who is in more trouble – the Chiefs or the Ravens, one of which will fall to 1-3 this Sunday? The guys got Mike's reaction to Russell Wilson being benched in NY. How will the Steelers' comp picks be impacted by what has happened to some of their free agents?

Paul Skenes didn't hold back, telling teammates it's time to “look in the mirror” and make the sacrifices needed to win. On this Bucco Brew, we break down Skenes' challenge and what it means for the Pirates' clubhouse. We also debate whether Andrew McCutchen just took his final at-bat at PNC Park—and if the Pirates should bring the franchise legend back next season. Plus, GM Ben Cherington says he's operating as if he'll return in 2026 and highlighted an improved farm system he plans to leverage for trades. Finally, we compare Pittsburgh's managerial choices of Derek Shelton and Don Kelly to the Reds' bold move to hire Terry Francona, and why the two clubs—once projected as equals—are now worlds apart. ☕ Powered by De Fer Coffee & Tea
