It’s a bonus edition of Throwbacks as Matt – who was in the Bronx for Game 5 – basks in the glory of a Dodgers championship while Jerry recedes into the darkness of a Yankees meltdown.   The guys share their thoughts on all angles of this year’s World Series – from the raw emotion of the final out to one of the most disastrous innings in baseball history. Plus, we wonder what uniform Juan Soto is most likely to be wearing in 2025; could it possibly be the uniform of the team that just defeated him? And Jerry tells us how he managed to cope with the Yankees loss and when he thinks he’ll be ready to start thinking about baseball again.  New episodes of Throwbacks drop every Thursday.

In the latest edition of Throwbacks, Matt Leinart and Jerry Ferrara are joined by former All-Star and 2009 World Series champion Nick Swisher as we get ready for this year’s edition of the Fall Classic. The guys discuss Juan Soto’s instant impact in the Bronx, Derek Jeter’s legendary leadership in the clubhouse and just how difficult it is to hit major league pitching. Nick also analyzes his less-than-stellar first pitch before Game 2 of the ALCS and talks about the type of “sideline dad” he is when it comes to watching his girls play softball.  Speaking of sidelines, Matt and Jerry discuss some of the more taboo elements of sideline conduct in the NFL and we wonder if the Boston Celtics can be even more motivated than they ordinarily would be after a couple of notable some summer slights.  Finally, in this week’s “Throwback 3,” the guys lay out their top three sports conspiracies of all time. Get out your tin foil hats and fire up the X-Files music as we ponder everything from frozen envelopes to phantom punches.  New episodes of Throwbacks drop every Thursday.
