Previewing the Stretch Run With Zack Cox. Plus, a Miserable Start for the Red Sox.
Brian breaks down the Red Sox’s bad start to the season, which has featured a feckless lineup and a disappointing pitching staff. Then, Brian chats with the Boston Herald’s Zack Cox about the Celtics, Jaylen Brown’s nagging Achilles injury, their playoff rotation, and more (25:30). Brian and Jamie end with a listener email on Roman Anthony and try to make sense of the Sox’s slow start, as well as TreVeyon Henderson’s eyebrow-raising tweet (1:11:00).
We want to hear from you! Leave Brian a message on the listener line at 617-396-7172. Or send us your questions for our mailbag at [email protected].
