Episode 382

We Beat the Rockies! Plus the Draft & All-Star Break

We could all use a break at this point. Our haggard hosts react to the Rockies series, Logan Webb's social media meltdown, and, in solidarity with Logan, Ben has a mental break down because of the the All-Star break. They also break down the draft: find out who has a fried chicken sandwich spreadsheet, who's 19 but that's not a concern, and who's uncle couldn't teach him how to hit a fly ball.

Note: we will not be publishing a midweek episode, we'll be back after the Mariner's series in one week.

On the cocktail side of things, today Matthew is drinking an Amen Corner while Ben is drinking a Sh*t From My Bar Sour. Recipes below.

Amen Corner

  • 5 Mint Leaves
  • 2 oz Bourbon
  • 1 oz Aperol
  • 3/4 oz Amaro Nonino
  • Shake all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Strain into a chilled coupe and garnish with as many brandied cherries as you can fit on a pick.

Sh*t From My Bar Sour

  • 2 oz Misery Mixture*
  • 1 oz Lemon Juice
  • 1 oz Simple Syrup or Raspberry Syrup or whatever but if it’s flavored make sure it comes from a plastic bottle
  • *Misery Mixture is a combination of all bottles in your bar that have less than six ounces remaining. Combine them into a single container and shake or whatever.
  • Combine misery, juice, and syrup in a shaker with ice. Shake until chilled. Strain into a red Solo cup.
