Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker recap the first two games of the World Series, Junior Caminero airing his frustrations in the Tampa Bay Rays' dugout, Milwaukee Brewers' rally in Game 2 from an early 4–0 deficit, Yandy Díaz's game-ending check swing, and the quality baseball in the first two matches of the Fall Classic. Then, MLB on TBS analyst and 12-year MLB veteran Jeff Francoeur joins the guys (31:29) to discuss the Rays' decisions on the base paths, Caminero's outburst on Chandler Simpson, Brewers' resilience, Kevin Cash's bullpen management to extend the series, William Contreras' hitting abilities, if the Rays can use homefield advantage for the next three games, and if there should be a 'check swing' challenge.
