In the 78th episode of Around The Waves on KCOU 88.1 FM, Luca Vitale, Ben Schmidt, and Justin Craft begin the day with the "Take A Swing" segment, where they provide an outlook for both Missouri baseball and softball. Mizzou baseball lost a series opener nailbiter against Florida International last night. FIU used a pair of two-run rallies and a shutdown effort from its pitching staff to defeat the Tigers 4-3. Game 2 of that series is tonight at 5:30 CT. Meanwhile, (21) Mizzou softball picked up a pair of run-rule victories over Cal Poly and BYU yesterday to open the 2023 Mary Nutter Cathedral City Collegiate Classic. With the two wins, the Tigers extended its win streak to eight games. The crew then provides their hottest take on the MLB season as season training is underway today. Around The Waves transitions to the NHL where Justin and Luca debate if Patrick Kane will be traded before the NHL Tradeline passes. The crew then transitions to the NBA where Ben discusses what the Russell Westbrook signing means for the LA Clippers. Next week we'll invite our next guest(s) to the show, so stay tuned!
