Tom in Roxbury called in to challenge Boomer about his thoughts on Rhys Hoskins’ slide into second base on Thursday, and Boomer strongly defended his belief that Hoskins’ slide into Jeff McNeil was dirty.
“Yeah he did…the guy slid through the base,” Boomer said. “You know that, I know that.
“He could have broke his leg! McNeil is doing everything correctly. That is BS. He over-slid the base on purpose, and you know it! Did you see where his ass hit the ground? It hit the ground about an inch before second base, meaning his legs were completely past the base and into the legs of Jeff McNeil. It was a BS slide, you know it, I know it.”
