About this episode

On this edition of The Will Cain Show’s Friday sports episode, Will is joined by Fox Sports’ MLB game analyst and former MLB All-Star Catcher, A.J. Pierzynski to break down the start of the Major League Baseball season. They discuss the Texas Rangers' chances, the discrepancy between the top teams in the American and National leagues, and who's going to win it all?


They also talk about jumping out of airplanes strapped to Navy SEALs and what it's like to catch a knuckleball pitcher. Will also chats with The Crew about the most frustrating things to watch in sports.


Oh, yeah! It's also Will's 50th birthday, and The Crew has a little surprise!
