You know what makes baseball more interesting? Home runs…so bring on the torpedo bats, right? Apr 02, 2025

Show notes

-The New York Yankees have returned to being the Bronx Bombers the first few games of the season, mashing at a historic pace…and a lot of it has to do with a new bat they are using—the torpedo bat, created by a MIT physicist

-The bat has a thicker barrel (sweet spot), and the goal is to have higher contact rates, which equals more runs (and fun)..

Show notes

-The NFL approved yesterday of adopting regular season OT as the same as the postseason, where both teams get a guaranteed possession regardless of a TD being scored right away or not----but it will still be a 10-minute quarter, not 15 mins

-Also, the Tush Push didn’t get enough people to oppose it so any sort of ban will be tabled for future months…

-Also, it appears that Aaron Rodgers will be headed to the Steelers—not official yet, but Pittsburgh owner Art Rooney said he’s on schedule to sign
