Peter Schwartz hosts another action-packed edition of SportsBash featuring conversations across the New York sports landscape.

First, New York Red Bulls head coach Michael Bradley joins the show to talk about the club’s strong 2-0 start and the exciting youth movement fueling the team’s early success. Bradley shares how the Red Bulls are building a fast, aggressive identity and why the organization believes its academy pipeline will shape the future of the club. He also discusses the impact of the upcoming World Cup matches at MetLife Stadium and what it means for soccer’s continued growth in the region.

Later in the show, former Mets pitcher and 1986 World Series champion Bob Ojeda joins the program ahead of receiving the prestigious Thurman Munson Award. Ojeda reflects on the unforgettable ’86 Mets season, including the pressure of pitching Game 3 of the World Series against his former team, the Boston Red Sox. He also shares stories about the personality and leadership inside that legendary clubhouse, why Ray Knight was the heartbeat of the team, and the emotional moments during the iconic Game 6 comeback.

Ojeda also speaks about the mission of AHRC NYC, the organization benefiting from the Thurman Munson Awards, and why the work they do supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities means so much.

The episode also includes the Sports Bash Flash, discussion of the latest New York sports headlines, and a few lighter moments as Peter makes a case for himself as Wendy’s next “Chief Tasting Officer.”
