We're at the end of another disappointing baseball season, and what might also be curtains for OABT. It's been a fun 7 years, but this might very well be the final episode.

With that, we chat about our favorite moments running this show, and look to a few important things coming up for Mets fans. Darren Meenan and Julia Quadrino live from T7LHQ.

Mets season ticket holder since 1998, Nick Schiavo chimes in with this thoughts. The 7 Line Army's 2024 jerseys are in the work...

We welcome Jane Son from the Mets, and Tom Rubing on behalf of America's Vet Dogs to the show.

Pete Alonso leads the league in homers, and can't stop humping things along the way. If and when the Mets win it all, he's going to need a chastity belt.

The Mets are heating up, and showing the skeptics that at least for now that the season isn't "done". The 7 Line Army's Baltimore outing sold out, and Bosto...

SHEESH. Nothing more to say about this year so far. Justin Verlander is making his Mets debut tonight at Citi Field, and there's almost no buzz around it. That's really bad, and the team should be very concerned. It's been an extremely disappointing start to the 2023 Mets season. We're definitely not trying to hide the truth, but we'll instead be talking about some good news surrounding the team. Tyler Wardy (WardyNYM) from Queens ...
