Monty is Money in Game One

Blair & Barker

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker recap game one of the ALCS as Jordan Montgomery & the Texas Rangers shut down the Houston Astros 2-0. Rangers analyst David Murphy joins the guys to discuss how Montgomery might have been overshadowed by the Max Scherzer trade but has been just as important to the Rangers down the stretch; and how Bruce Bochy has been employing his bullpen. Later the guys shift their focus to the NLCS between the Phillies and Diamondbacks with former Phillies Manager & World Series Champion Larry Bowa (28:23) who spoke about Philadelphia’s second straight trip to the NLCS, the job Rob Thomson has done as manager, and how gaining postseason experience last year was beneficial for players like Alec Bohm and Bryson Stott.
