Dodgers + Injuries = Season Over?

Welp. They lost 2 of 3 to the LA Corpos. The entire team is injured. Time to rebuild! Or is it? The boys ponder if the Giants need to throw in the towel and go all in on the youth. Or will the youth save the day? Also, Matthew quizzes Ben on trivia about all of the new faces. Hilarity ensues.

On the cocktail side of things Ben is drinking a Rye Smile while Matthew is drinking a Tangerine Dream.
