Discussion on the San Francisco Giants with guests Bruce MacGowan SRS podcast contributor and 95.7 The Game Sam Lubman join Stephen.
Stephen says that he really misses the days when the MLB All Star Game was a game. Guys were playing to win like the 2018 All Star Game. One of the worst decisions that was made was MLB used ABS at the All Star Game. Now booing umpires and disliking umpires is a tradition as old as time itself.
The umpires were respected and you had fun booing them. I used to boo umpires before I became one. Kyle is in the comments and said that the swing off and the derby was awesome. MLB is using the ABS challenge and it’s looking more and more like this ABS is going to be implemented next season.
