Elly breaks records, Bobby breaks records, and that Shohei guy says “hold my beer.” Jackson is not allowed to hold his beer until next year. We crosstrain with Caitlin Clark (and she cross-trains right back) and Green Day (Billy Joe uses his pottymouth powers for good). Teams are clinching their postseason berths and Patti reminds you why wildcard ranking matters. Pottymouth gets to welcome another Kyle into the fold and LaMonte has a homestand at an away series. Matt joins the dad strength club, while CJ gets sent down for too much time at a club. Barbara Gregorich is awarded 2024 Dorothy Seymour Mills Lifetime Achievement Award, and we learn the greatest acronym of all time.

We say, “I’m still gonna hope until there’s no hope,” “That’s hilarious and also insulting,” and, “I want you to do great but I want your team not to win.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.
