Description: A full-on WFAN time machine. Evan and Greg Gianforte dig up 17-year-old audio from their days doing live “stringer updates” at a Lakers-Rockets Game 7 in Los Angeles. From overly dramatic stat reads to awkward transitions back to the studio, the guys relive the glory and the cringe of their early reporting days at Staples Center. Who sounded more polished? Who rambled? The self-scouting is ruthless. After the laughs, they pivot back to Mets baseball and make a bold prediction: when the season ends, Brett Baty may have logged the most innings at first base. What began as a Jorge Polanco assumption has completely shifted, and the reasoning behind the change says a lot about how this roster is evolving.
