The World Series is set — Dodgers vs. Blue Jays — and Alex and Heath break it all down. Thanks to George Springer’s clutch gene, they revisit a wild ALCS Game 7 that sent Toronto back to the Fall Classic for the first time since 1993.

Then, the guys dive into the Giants’ surprise managerial hire: Tennessee’s Tony Vitello. Can a college coach make the jump straight to the big leagues? Heath explains why the move could reset the way MLB teams think about leadership — and why trust matters more than résumés.

And in true Bleav in San Diego Baseball fashion, the conversation takes a turn toward game-day food — featuring Heath’s vintage popcorn machine, chicken wings, and the eternal debate: dry rub, sauced, or… naked?

Finally, Alex and Heath make their World Series predictions — one rolling with Toronto in seven, the other leaning Dodgers by a hair. Either way, they agree: this could be one of the best Classics of the century.
