Chapter 2: What is the significance of the Yeshiva-Lehman baseball game?

00:50 - 01:16 Dan Le Batard

Eager to get to Juju Gotti and what he has to say about today's show. But before we do this, I've been negligent today in not talking about two giant losers in college baseball. We have two losing streaks that are colliding in minutes here in an epic baseball game. Yeshiva has a 99 game losing streak. that dates back to 2022, and they're facing Lehman.

0

Chapter 3: Why are Yeshiva and Lehman considered 'loser teams'?

01:16 - 01:43 Dan Le Batard

Lehman has lost 42 straight games since 2023. Now, unfortunately, Lehman is 17 and 0 all time versus Yeshiva, and they average 15 runs a game. So Yeshiva seems to be a special kind of terrible. We bring in our loser correspondent, Jeremy, and I say that in the most loving fashion. to give us an update on this, a preview, a rare preview from us on this baseball game. What do you have?

0

01:43 - 01:47 Jeremy

Special expertise as a loser and a Jew with Yeshiva University.

0

01:47 - 01:48 Dan Le Batard

You're perfect.

0

01:48 - 02:07 Jeremy

And I can bring you expertise on all of this. This is great, right? Because these are a bunch of guys. It's actually the opposite of great. It's the opposite. What makes it great as a story is that these are a bunch of guys who just play for the love of the game. There's no like road to Omaha. There is not some special prize at the end of their college athletic career.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Jeremy

It's just, I want to, it's exactly right. Guys who just love the sport and are there to continue to do it because these teams, these colleges are truly and utterly dreadful. You can watch it on laymanathletics.com, the first game of a doubleheader Starts it at 155.

Chapter 4: What are the challenges faced by the Yeshiva baseball team?

02:28 - 02:48 Jeremy

So this is great because theoretically, Yeshiva could extend their losing streak to 100 and then snap it later in the day by splitting the doubleheader with Lehman. But of course, Dan, you were wondering what conference are these teams in? And that's what's really important here. Of course, Lehman is in the CUNYAC. I believe that's pronounced CUNYAC conference.

0

02:48 - 02:55 Jeremy

And of course, Yeshiva is in the Skyline conference. More competitive, thus why they have a 99-game losing streak. But there's some fun facts here.

0

Chapter 5: Who are the key figures in Yeshiva's baseball program?

02:55 - 03:00 Contributor

When you've lost 99 in a row, you just go for that 100. Yeah, you have to. You don't win that 100th game.

0

03:00 - 03:19 Jeremy

But then you can snap it later in the evening, which is perfect. So they don't play on Saturday, obviously, because of Shabbat, which is why you have a Tuesday doubleheader here. This is my favorite. I read the bio of their head coach, Jeremy Renna. Jeremy Renna is a full-time retail senior executive and consultant, adjunct professor, high school baseball coach, investor, and executive mentor.

0

03:19 - 03:45 Jeremy

He's currently the head coach of Yeshiva Baseball, bringing a strong sense of positive team building, clear accountability standards within the framework of Jewish Tenets. It's amazing that everyone involved in this knows We're on the worst team in college athletics of any kind. And yet we're going to keep going out there and get our asses kicked game after game.

0

03:45 - 03:55 Jeremy

Dan, the lowest single ERA by any player in Yeshiva University history. 5.36. I think I was recruited by Lehman.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Billy

It seems like this manager is quite distracted. And if you would just focus on one team and one thing, maybe there'd be different results.

00:00 - 00:00 Jeremy

I just like looking at the difference in the rosters, Dan. If I read some names to you, I'm going to read some names to the group from one team and then the other. And you guys tell me which team you think...

00:00 - 00:00 Jeremy

would win this baseball game so one team has players named charlie hernandez oh john carlos pujos i don't like this game riel maldonado my boy cook i don't i don't like this game i know where he's going with this and our genus sanchez is a dangerous game and the bad team come on the other team nobody answer anything has zambie greenberg kobe cohen oh Noam Awonhu. Sean Green. Zvi Mochechen.

00:00 - 00:00 Jeremy

Jacob Weichbrot. It's a trap. AJ Zimbalist. Don't do this. And Zachary Goldberg. Dan, which team do you think is going to win the baseball game?

Chapter 6: How did Florida Gators fans react to recent championships?

04:48 - 04:49 Contributor

Don't ask Dan.

04:49 - 04:50 Jeremy

Dan?

04:50 - 05:00 Dan Le Batard

Thank you. I appreciate all your contributions to the show. Cannon! You can also get out of the room. I don't want to talk to you anymore. You got it.

0

05:00 - 05:04 Jeremy

Can you read that bio again about that coach? Eli Zerdak and Samuel Wiseman would like a word.

00:00 - 00:00 Dan Le Batard

A known winner in Juju Gotti joins us now to celebrate. Winner last night in college basketball. Winners over the weekend in UConn and Florida. Great champions. Hello, Juju. What do you have for us in the way of analysis on the championships over the weekend?

00:00 - 00:00 Juju Gotti

What's going on, brother? I'm happy you made it back safely. You feel me? That's taken for granted these days on these airplane rides from coast to coast. Glad to see you made it back here in your family. You feel me? Thank you. Yeah, great. Great basketball over the weekend. Like you said earlier, the women's tournament. Hey, man. The UConn Huskies showed up and they showed out.

00:00 - 00:00 Juju Gotti

They didn't make it entertaining at all what they did to South Carolina. It was an open and shut bookcase on that one. And I was last night, you see me on represent today. You know, they say beside every good man is a great woman. And my woman, she has she put on a Matthew Katuk. Kachuk jersey with my Florida Panthers one this year.

00:00 - 00:00 Juju Gotti

She threw on the Jalen Brown jersey whenever my Boston Celtics won. She actually went to the Eagles bar with me and threw on my cousin jersey for the Eagles. And she's a Bills fan for sure. And so today I'm representing her. She graduated from the University of Florida. It was crazy pandemonium in here last night. She was on every, I'm talking about eggshell the whole game.

Chapter 7: Why did the show's hosts prefer Houston over Florida?

06:26 - 06:45 Juju Gotti

I think it was a good game. You know what I mean? Maybe I'm biased. But seeing those brothers come back from that deficit, if it wasn't for the first half or Richard, like they would have been in a lot of trouble because Houston, they smother their opponents. Like, you know what I mean? That's the MO. They smother the teams and they make it a boring game. They drag you out.

0

06:46 - 06:55 Juju Gotti

And for them brothers to get it, muster something up in that second half and get the job done. Man, my baby was the happiest I've seen her since we got together. So I'm representing for her today.

06:56 - 07:17 Dan Le Batard

Billy, last night when we were with the winner of our March Madness tournament, you pointed out that our less than beloved Ethan Badowski here in the other room has been wildly annoying as a Gator fan. It can't feel good as Miami people to see the Gators enjoying themselves this way.

0

07:18 - 07:37 Billy

No, well, he was equally as obnoxious when the Panthers won. But there were other people that were happy about the Panthers, so he got lost in the shuffle. But, like, we did discuss on the show yesterday, you know, off air, do we want Houston to win or Florida? You know, the show's in Florida. We live in Florida. And the consensus was, well, Ethan will be just so unbearable if they win.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Dan Le Batard

Everybody on the show, Juju, seemed to want Houston to win, even though I thought Houston ruined the championship by knocking off Duke.

00:00 - 00:00 Juju Gotti

Yeah, I was so happy when they beat Duke because it's just something about seeing Duke. Like, I don't know, man, like certain crops and they don't give you enough time to fall in love with the players no more. They won and done. And so I'm looking up and down Duke's roster. I'm not rooting for Conniple, if I'm being honest with you. I was so happy to see Houston win. And I thought that...

00:00 - 00:00 Juju Gotti

the game that happened last night, I was assuming it would be like that, but I just, it was just overwhelming to see it happen in that scenario. And I did, if you know, like the brother who messed up the last two plays, the man was sharp, bro. If you know that man, if you, that man's a family member of yours, reach out to him today, man, because he could use a lot of love.

00:00 - 00:00 Juju Gotti

He going to turn on his TV and see everybody saying how he did bad in those last two plays. If you love that man, reach out and let him know he is worthy. He is loved and you got his back.

00:00 - 00:00 Dan Le Batard

You did something there that I think has been happening throughout the tournament. You brought a delight to the cherubic face of Chris Cody by simply saying the name Con Canipa. Yeah, it's great.
