Sox Wild-Card Race With Tom Caron. Plus. Drake Maye’s Debut and Jayson Tatum Doesn’t Play.

Brian shares his thoughts on the Patriots’ first preseason game, including the first look at Drake Maye and Jacoby Brissett. He also talks about Team USA’s exciting win over Serbia, another game in which Jayson Tatum did not play (0:40). Then, he chats with NESN’s Tom Caron about the Red Sox’s solid play as of late, some worrying signs from the pitching rotation, their top-rated offense, and more (23:35). Then, Brian and Jamie chat about Brian’s fantasy football draft (1:00:55).
