Five and Dive, Episode 420/421: It was the World Series

In Episodes 420 and 421, Patrick, Jeffrey, and (eventually) Craig discuss nine mostly baseball topics in between fighting with Tempe, AZ wifi.

1. I was a Freeman in Paris, I felt unfettered and alive: The Dodgers strike first in Game 1, thanks to the first of several weird Yankees tactical moves.
2. Helplessly hoping, her harlequin hovers nearby: Dodgers make it 2-for-2 while dealing with an Ohtani injury scare.
3. Sing another song boys, this one has grown old and bitter: The Yankees have a playoff anthem for some reason, it didn't help.
4. Around the Horn: David Stearns hits the reliever market and we consider the White Sox managerial job.
5. Patrick remembers some Mariners
6. Ayyyyyyy, I'm fieldin' ovah here: The Yankees get one back, but that isn't the main story of this game. Plus Craig complains about Dave Roberts bullpen management one more time.
7. Five Alive: Game five features a five run lead lost, and the Dodgers are world champions
8. Here in the afterglow: What's next for the Yankees and what does this win mean for the Dodgers dynasty.
9. Around the Horn 2: A trade already and a couple notable retirements
