Today's episode was recorded on Jackie Robinson Day, and before we headed to Dodger Stadium to watch our boys get back in the win column, we had to talk about the last week of not playing our best baseball.
We discuss going to the first game of the Cubs series and how hot Yamamoto was, what happened the next day when Roki was taken out and Ben Casparius came in leading to a momentum shift favoring the Cubs and their hot bats. We visited one of Jaclyn's former softball coaches who has worked at Dodger Stadium for 40 years in the patchroom.
We knew Adam was going to come in hot with his Cubs winning the series and the huge 16-0 shutout, but we stayed positive through it all.
We get into the mental game trying to understand what surrounding our players is helping and what is hurting. Should the media ask different questions? Should fans stop freaking out? We get into it all, and may have even come up with our next jersey fashion venture.
And as we will continue to do, we named our player of the week and discussed our favorite plays and moments despite the struggles. It's just the beginning of the season guys, we're fine!
