Boomer & Gio return from vacation, discussing the All-Star game (Gio finds it uninteresting, wanting it to attract younger audiences), the Yankees and Mets' strong positions at the break, potential Yankees trades, and Anthony Volpe’s dad. Jerry provides a Yankees update: they lost 4-1. Al's vacation meltdown (vowing off planes) leads to a debate on traveling with him versus a newborn. The Mets lost in Kansas City. The Red Sox's turnaround post-Rafael Devers trade is discussed, along with the Mets drafting a college player known for a celebration and the Yankees drafting Jeff Kent’s son. The hour ends with Mike Brown's introductory press conference.
