In a fiery rant, Sal dissects the Mets' struggles heading into their crucial series against the Braves, lamenting Pete Alonso's "awful at-bats" and a general lack of sustained success for the team. He pulls no punches, highlighting the historic "house of horrors" that is Atlanta for the Mets and emphasizing the need to "put the hammer down" on the Braves. While primarily focused on the Mets, Sal also manages to weave in sharp criticism of Anthony Volpe, pointedly calling him a "disappointment" and far from the "star" Brian Cashman projected him to be.
Sal Licata dissects the latest in New York sports! Today, Sal's fuming over the Yankees' anemic bats after another shutout, questioning if they even remember what a hit looks like. He also dives into the Knicks' baffling decision to apparently not want Kevin Durant (because who needs a superstar, right?), and of course, no episode is complete without Sal's passionate, and often exasperated, takes on Pete Alonso. Tune in for unfiltered opinions, plenty of laughs, and maybe a few frustrated sighs as we try to make sense of it all!
Hour 1 This weekend, both the Mets and Yankees were swept, while the Phillies extended their winning streak, and in a significant move, the Red Sox traded Rafael Devers to San Francisco after he homered in his final game with Boston; Aaron Judge notably struggled, going 1-for-12 with 9 strikeouts. In golf, JJ Spaun won the US Open, while Gio noted that something seems to be amiss with Rory, which warrants monitoring as he heads to Bethpage Black; meanwhile, the Knicks are still seeking a head coach, and Tyler Herro of the Miami Heat stated he doesn't believe anything in history prior to 1950. Hour 2 Both the Mets and Yankees were swept this weekend, with the Mets now heading to Atlanta and a caller demanding Aaron Boone's firing due to the Yankees' fundamental errors, including baserunning mistakes by Dominguez and Rice. This came after Rafael Devers, who homered in his final game for Boston, was traded from the Red Sox to San Francisco. Meanwhile, Mike Francesa's prediction of a Mets losing streak came true, and despite Pete Alonso's strong offense, his throwing issues to first base persist. In golf, JJ Spaun won the US Open on Father's Day, and on the Knicks front, they are interviewing Mike Brown and Taylor Jenkins for the head coach position, while Dan Plesac of MLB Network was reportedly scammed by an "unpaid tolls" text message. Hour 3 The Knicks are interviewing Mike Brown and Taylor Jenkins for their head coaching vacancy, with one caller criticizing Leon Rose for the team's current state and another suggesting Jay Wright, though he's not a candidate. Meanwhile, the Yankees were swept in Boston, a series that saw Rafael Devers traded to the Giants after homering. The Mets also suffered a three-game losing streak, fulfilling Mike Francesa's prediction to Frank The Tank, and now head to Atlanta. In other sports news, JJ Spaun won the US Open, and Fanatics selected 50 regular people to compete against professional athletes. A caller also proposed Allan Houston or John Starks as potential Knicks coaches. Hour 4 Boomer reacted to the Chris Kreider trade, calling him one of the Rangers' all-time greats while acknowledging his frustrating moments, which led to a comparison of long-tenured New York athletes like the Mets' David Wright and Giants' Tiki Barber, with Gio expressing surprise at the Mets retiring Wright's #5 jersey so soon. In other sports news, Rafael Devers homered to beat the Yankees before being traded, the Mets were swept at home by the Rays, and JJ Spaun won the US Open. The show also featured a "Moment of the Day" with a caller's heartfelt story to a distracted Joe Benigno, and a reminder that the show would be off the following day for a round of golf at Bethpage Black, the future site of the Ryder Cup. And what's going on with Rory?

A caller wants Aaron Boone fired for the fundamental mistakes they had in each loss this weekend. Mike Francesa was at Barstool and told Frank The Tank he couldn't complain about the Mets until they lost 3 games in a row, which they immediately did. Pete Alonso has had a great offensive season but he's having issues throwing the ball to pitchers covering first base.

The Mets swept the Rockies, with two homers each from Pete Alonso and Jeff McNeil; Alonso surpassed David Wright on the Mets' all-time home run list, earning Wright's congratulations.

Hour 3 Bad Weather Fans' post about no new "Roommates" podcast sparked Gio's observation that no Knicks players or management have commented on Thibs' firing. This silence, he reasoned, allows for rampant speculation, aligning with the Knicks' history of firing coaches still under contract. Jerry then updated the sports news: Boston hit five homers to beat the Yankees, despite two from Aaron Judge; Pete Alonso's two home runs helped the Mets sweep the Rockies, pushing him past David Wright on the Mets' all-time list; and the Thunder evened their series with the Pacers at 1-1. The hour concluded with more discussion about American hamburger consumption and the theory that James Dolan fired Thibs after sitting in on player interviews. Hour 4 Boomer and Gio's planned boat day was thwarted by bad weather, leading them to consider golf instead. A caller deemed Derek Jeter the most "boring" athlete to interview. Before Jerry's final update, Boomer shared his new green drink from Chris Wragge's wife. Jerry then played audio of Jazz Chisholm's mic'd-up error. In sports, Aaron Judge hit two homers in a Yankees loss, while Jeff McNeil and Pete Alonso each hit two as the Mets swept the Rockies. The Giants' defensive coordinator wants his players to emulate pirates for turnovers, and the Thunder evened their series with the Pacers. The show concluded with a caller's story about a woman with E. coli in her sinuses and a discussion of potential Knicks coaching candidates.
