Hefner Returns as Braves Dominate

About this episode

The episode discusses Jeremy Hefner's impact on the Braves' pitching staff as they face the Mets.

When the Mets face the Braves, they’re squaring off against a familiar foe: Jeremy Hefner, their former pitching coach who’s now helping Atlanta dominate with a league-leading ERA. After being let go by the Mets following a rough rotation season, Hefner’s impact is undeniable — Atlanta’s pitching staff is thriving despite injuries, and Mets president David Stearns admits Hefner’s success wasn’t surprising. With Strider back on the mound and McLean ready to counter, this series could be a pitching clinic — and a reminder of how much Hefner’s fingerprints are still all over the game.
