Ken and Lima break down Cooper Ingle's costly mental error, tossing a ball into the stands after mistakenly thinking there were three outs, which turned into a two-base error and handed Texas the lead. Both hosts defend the rookie, arguing it was a "dumb kid thing" rather than a lack of effort, and push back on fans calling for him to be sent to Triple-A or benched. A caller, Mike from Cleveland Heights, tries to connect the gaffe to Josh Naylor's departure and his choice of cleats, but Ken and Lima shoot down both tangents as unrelated. The segment closes with the hosts crediting Ingle and manager Stephen Vogt for how the team rallied around him afterward.
