It’s a very special Memorial Day episode of Battery Mates. Matthew and Toby go around the horn on Bryce Harper’s future, Cleveland's new statue honoring Frank Robinson, fake news involving the Mets and dinosaurs, and an update on how pace-of-play rules are failing miserably — especially if you’re a Rays fan, which, lol.

Brent Colburn, former assistant to the Secretary of Defense for public affairs and OG Nats fan, is on hand to talk about growing up in a military family, watching a lot of minor league teams like the Hawaii Islanders and the Lansing Lugnuts, and the role that sports play in the lives of the men and women deployed overseas.

The boys take a look at what the MLB standings look like at Memorial Day, and Matthew gives Battery Mates Nation a rundown of his first viewing of A League of Their Own.
