Episode 354: Shohei Ohtani & Baseball are back, Crazy Bulls Win, More Sweet 16 Games

March 28th, 2025

It’s a good day to be a sports fan, and we have a packed show for you today. It was opening day for Major League Baseball. On the 3rd pitch of the season, Austin Wells hit a home run for the Yankees. The Dodgers had Ice Cube bring the trophy into the stadium as they unveiled their World Champions banner. To celebrate, Shohei Ohtani hit a home run. We have tape of the kid that caught the ball. Tyler O’Neill homered for the 6th year in a row. Even the White Sox won, meaning the Angles might now be the west team in the league.

The Sweet 16 had an overtime game as Texas Tech came back from 16 down to win in overtime. Cooper Flagg & Duke cruised, as did Florida. Alabama set the record with 25 three pointers as they beat BYU. In the NBA, the Pacers put an epic hurting on the Wizards. But the big story was the Bulls scoring 8 points in the last 15 seconds to beat the Lakers. Josh Giddey hit an amazing half court shot as time expired.

Also on the show, we have our Comedy Clip of the Day, National Days + AI, Kenny White’s Dog of the Day, some sports betting tips, and our favorite picks.
