Giants Win in Arizona!

One game anyway. In the abbreviated episode, our herpetologists react to the DBag series which included the Giants first win against them this season, after going 0-8. The boys discuss the team losing 11 straight Landen Roupp starts, Trevor McDonald's great outing and the trade value of Heliot Ramos.

On the cocktail side of things, today Ben is drinking a Sweet Misery while Matthew is drinking a How to Kill a Friend. Recipes below.

Sweet Misery

  • 2 oz White Rum
  • 4-6 Trader Joe’s Italian Blood Orange Soda (Or make your own with blood oranges, simple syrup and club soda)
  • Add rum to an empty highball glass, fill the glass with ice and top with the soda

How to Kill a Friend
