Zach and Bob are joined by Ryan Ripken on the 28th anniversary of his father Cal breaking Lou Gehrig’s consecutive game streak to discuss what its like to be on the cusp of the playoffs again. Ryan has a unique perspective as a former player in the organization as well as his current career covering the team. They talk about Jackson Holliday’s rapid ascent to AAA Norfolk, what the Orioles starting rotation should look like in October, and who played the best pranks between his dad and uncle Billy.
