In this week’s episode, Yankees Magazine’s Jon Schwartz chats with MLB.com’s Bryan Hoch about some of their observations from the postseason, their thoughts on the Brewers-Rays World Series matchup, and the moments from the 2026 season that will stick with them.

Plus, Yankees senior museum curator Brian Richards has an extraordinary chapter of History Books about one of the greatest World Series pitching performances of all time. Don’t miss this episode!

Luis Rojas is part of a family of baseball royalty. The son of Felipe Alou, Rojas is like a lot of current members of the Yankees, in that he grew up around the highest level of the sport, both in America and the Dominican Republic. Now the Yankees’ third base coach, Rojas stopped by our studio to chat with Yankees Magazine deputy editor Jon Schwartz for this week’s episode. The two discussed the different ways you have to coach different players, the joys of wearing pinstripes, and the resilience the 2026 team has shown all year long.

And in our second segment, YES Network’s Meredith Marakovits joins to discuss the Yankees’ postseason clinch, including the lessons that she has learned about using prosecco and Budweiser as hair products. Finally, as we close out a week spent remembering the 25th anniversary of one of this country’s worst days, senior museum curator Brian Richards opens a fascinating chapter of History Books about a former Yankee with a remarkable connection to 9/11.

When Paul Goldschmidt decided to return for a second year with the Yankees, the star first baseman — a likely Hall of Famer — recognized that he was likely signing on for a veteran platoon role. And while that can be difficult for some players of Goldschmidt’s stature, baseball has a way of messing with plans. Goldschmidt has been an essential piece of the team’s run this year, while also serving as a mentor to a budding stud in Ben Rice, and as the veteran explains to Yankees Magazine deputy editor Jon Schwartz, he’s just following the lead of the players who mentored him as he emerged. Goldschmidt and Schwartz discuss the baseball life cycle, the joy that comes with winning, and what it means to have your family around during a big-league journey.

And in our second segment, YES Network’s Meredith Marakovits joins to discuss some particularly interesting news about one player currently on the Yankees injured list and she and Jon look ahead to a September sprint to the postseason. Finally, senior museum curator Brian Richards opens a fascinating chapter of History Books about pitcher Spec Shea.
