Will the Eldridge Knight Save Vitello?

About this episode

The hosts discuss the San Francisco Giants' recent struggles and the potential impact of rookie call-ups on the team's performance.

Can two rookie call ups right the ship? The boys react to yet another sweep, this time at the hands of the Tampa Bay Rays, a organization with significantly less resources yet a vastly superior team. The Giants can't score, suck at strategy, and can't coach third base. But Buster is sending reinforcements, the question is, will Vitello play them? On the cocktail side of things, Matthew is drinking El Jardine while Ben is drinking a Dom You Forget About Me. El Jardine 1 1/2 oz Reposado Tequila 3/4 oz Green Chartreuse (or Luxardo Del Santo) 3/4 oz Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur 1 oz Lime Juice 1/4 oz Agave (optional) Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice. Shake until well chilled and strain into a chilled coupe glass or over a large rock. Garnish with a dehydrated lime wheel. Dom You Forget About Me 1 1/2 oz Rum 1/2 oz DOM Benedictine 1/2 oz Simple Syrup 3/4 oz Lime Juice Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice and shake until chilled. Double strain into a coupe glass and garnish with a lime wheel. #DoItForWilson
