In Episode 102 of Chase for 28, Chris and the Podcast Padre react to another lukewarm week in Yankees baseball, where the team holds a slim lead in the AL East despite continued offensive struggles. The episode opens with a trivia victory, dips into De Niro’s Frankenstein of all things, and quickly pivots into hard-hitting analysis of player performances and managerial trends.


The duo breaks down Spencer Jones’ promotion to Triple-A, criticizes Anthony Volpe’s play and discusses George Lombard Jr.'s rise to the Yankees' top prospect. They also revisit a familiar frustration—how the Yankees consistently underperform during the summer months under Aaron Boone. Will shaking up the lineup or a fiery dugout ejection finally spark the team?
