[Sept 9] Baseball's Captain Is Back: Aaron Judge's Return, a Rib That Wouldn't Rush, and the History of "The Captain"
Yankees captain Aaron Judge returns after 100 days out with a fractured rib, and The Trainer explains why a cracked rib is so hard to rush back from. Plus a look at Judge's rise, and the history of the Yankees' "Captain" title, which goes back to 1903.
[Corrected 2026-09-29: the trivia question was replaced, because its original answer named the wrong team's captain, and the episode was remixed with the show's sound effects.]
