We could not let this episode go by without paying tribute to the great John Sterling. And as John would have it, we covered a lot of Yankees news. Plus, we shared stories about our moms and their connections to our favorite game.

Production Note: This episode was pre-recorded on Mother's Day, 5/10/26, prior to Jose Caballero's placement on the Injured List and the Yankees' calling up Anthony Volpe.

DC's own Mets fanatic Ken pays a visit to discuss the state of the Mets and express his displeasure with one Yankees Captain. We also introduce a new segment -- baseball trivia -- with a special guest trivia host, and recount an adventure to Fenway Park.

Production Note: This episode was recorded on April 26, prior to Giancarlo Stanton being placed on the injured list.

In our longest episode to date, our nephew/cousin, Joe, joined us for this week in Mets, Yankees, and our fantasy league. The Mets and Yankees games were both in progress while we recorded, so look out for real-time reactions. Plus, we recapped our snake draft of all-time Mets and Yankees greats.

With Yankee and Mets bats cold, we discuss if it's time to sound the alarms just yet. We talk clubhouse dynamics for the Mets and the future of the Yanks' pitching. Apologies to Bob Costas are issued as well as to our listeners -- we advertised that Joe would appear on this episode and due to technical difficulties we had to postpone. Don't worry... we covered some family lore anyway.

Production note: This episode was recorded prior to the Yankees' 11-10 win on April 13th.

After a whole three days of baseball our hosts discuss opening night on Netflix, the pros and cons of the ABS system, Yankee and Met highlights (and low lights), Paul Skenes' Opening Day nightmare, managing fantasy baseball as well as family dynamics, and Uncle Jim putting his foot through the television.

Welcome to the Donaldson Dugout!

Meet your hosts -- Bob aka Gus aka Dad, and Mary Grace aka Gracie aka M. We're getting ready for our first season and in our first episode we discuss our baseball background with deep roots. We talk WBC and individual performances, including that of one Yankees Captain. We get into what's coming up for the Yanks and Mets (or at least, what we hope happens), debate the pros and cons of retiring CC's number, and prep to pick our fantasy teams.
