Mark Grote 0:00

This hour is being brought to you by Menards. Save big money at Menards. The views and opinions of Layla Rahimi, Marshall Harris, and Mark Grody should not be taken too seriously.

Caller (Gym) / Michael (caller) - Unknown 0:10

Especially when they give advice. Do not take Marshall's analogies literally. Especially when it comes to Russell Dorsey. The sports thoughts of Rahimi, Harris, and Grody may change at any time. It's just sports. Okay, thanks, bye.

Marshall Harris 0:24

Rahimi Harrison-Grody, 10-2 on 104.3 The Score.

Vinny Rotino 0:29

We've had some fun talking about the Savannah Bananas game. There's no doubt about that. We're on board, but not everybody is. An unlikely source of this, noted journalist Michael Wilbon, Chicago man, discussed on Pardon the Interruption, the Savannah Bananas series at Wrigley over the weekend.

Unknown 0:48

49-year-old Kerry Wood threw an improbable strike in his first pitch in Wrigley since retiring 14 years ago.

Marshall Harris 0:56

He's thrown out ceremonial first pitches as recently as a few months ago, and I'm sure he could throw a strike. Tony, I'm not acknowledging that banana stuff. I'm not. They can sell out Wrigley Field from now until the cows come home. I'm not down with that.

Unknown 1:08

You'd be the only one. You'd be the only one not acknowledging it because it's entertainment and it sells out.

Caller (Gym) / Michael (caller) - Unknown 1:14

Jump, dump them, dump them.

Marshall Harris 1:15

Dump him. Tyler, let me know when you have that recue, because there's something I want people to pay attention to that Mike Wilbon said at the beginning of that clip.

Unknown 1:23

On Saturday night, when 49-year-old Kerry Wood threw an improbable strike.

Marshall Harris 1:27

Stop her there. Did you hear the wow? That's the point, Michael.

What happened at the Savannah Bananas event that sparked debate about baseball entertainment?

Marshall Harris 1:32

That is the point, sir.

Layla Rahimi 1:33

He did say wow, right? I heard it. I heard it. I just couldn't tell if it was sarcastic, like wow. But he seemed like he was entertained. Oh, no, he was entertained.

Vinny Rotino 1:41

That was a very much like... That was a genuine wow.

Marshall Harris 1:43

That was a genuine wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Oh, man. I feel like, wow. Over here trying to yuck somebody else's yuck.

Vinny Rotino 1:49

Do you think it's because he's a Washington Generals fan? He would not be okay with me saying that.

Marshall Harris 1:53

He's like, no, I don't do that banana ball stuff ever since they took out my Indianapolis clowns.

Caller (Gym) / Michael (caller) - Unknown 1:57

Let me get this straight. You took all the money you made franchising your name and bid it against the Harlem Globetrotters?

Marshall Harris 2:03

I thought the Generals were due. That game was fixed. They were using a freaking ladder, for God's sakes.

2:09

Oh.

Marshall Harris 2:09

Layla Rahimi, Marshall Harris, Mark Grody. Midday's 10 a.m. to 2 on Chicago Sports Radio 104.3 The Score.

Mark Grote 2:21

I'd say that wow is a good word to use to describe last night's baseball for both of our Chicago teams, one playing in the city, proper, last night. Did you get that reference, by the way? Yes, but I would go a step further, not wow. Wowzers. Wowzers is what it was. The Cubs and the Sox were both – just very dramatic last night. You don't need people in your lives to be dramatic when you have the Cubs and the White Sox creating all of this drama for all of us here in this great, big, beautiful city of Chicago as we welcome you in to the Rahimi Harris and Grody show on 104.3 The Score. Welcome in. The text line is already popping. The phone lines will be popping as well because we will actually invite callers in

Mark Grote 3:16

Later on in the hour, 312-644-6767 is the number. Marshall, I'm in danger today because I keep thinking, and this is a dangerous thing to have happen to humans, I believe. I am in Friday mode. I keep thinking it's Friday, and I think it's because, well, it's a beautiful day. Lollapalooza is about to go off. So that makes it feel like, like Lollapalooza starts today, so it makes it feel like the weekend is here. The Yankees are in town playing the White Sox. They're going to be here at Wrigley Field all weekend long. The Cubs and Cardinals were hot last night. So my mentality is I've got to get it out of my head because I'm just going to be disappointed when I have to get up at 630 tomorrow morning again that today is Thursday.

Marshall Harris 4:05

You know what, though, Grody? I'm not going to help you with your feeling and make it feel any less like a Friday. One of the reasons it feels like Friday is because this is our last day here.
