In this Canada Day mini-episode of the 6ix Inning Stretch, Lindsay Dunn flies solo while Whit takes a well-deserved vacation recovery day. Lindsay breaks down the highly anticipated, incredibly emotional return of Bo Bichette to the Rogers Centre in a New York Mets uniform, featuring his vulnerable post-game media availability where he reflects on his history with Toronto fans. Plus, we bring you an exclusive, hilarious, and insightful interview with Blue Jays relief pitcher Braydon Fisher. Fisher takes us behind the scenes of the bullpen's secret "scooter gang," the competitive games they play during batting practice, what it was like attending his first-ever concert with his teammates to see Luke Combs, and the nerves behind proposing to his wife versus locking down his first MLB save. Finally, we check in on Shane Bieber's recovery progress . Don't forget to drop a comment on YouTube telling us how much you miss "Vacation Whit"!

Welcome back to another episode of 6ix Inning Stretch! We are thrilled to welcome Cincinnati Reds right-hander Brady Singer to the show. As Whit’s former teammate with the Kansas City Royals, Brady is the ultimate target for some good-natured ribbing. The duo dives deep into their hilarious history, including the real story behind Whit’s endless folder of embarrassing rain-delay photos, Brady’s chaotic engagement story involving a granite pool slip-and-fall, and his viral tight-pants appearance at a Florida Gators football game. Plus, Brady breaks down his adjustments on the mound this year, adding a cutter to his signature sinker-slider mix, and what it’s really like playing under a Hall of Famer like Terry Francona.

Welcome back to another episode of Six Inning Stretch! This week, Lindsay is pulling out the receipts. We dive straight into some hilarious cross-team drama after Lindsay takes Whit's podcast comments directly to the ballpark. Watch as Tim Mayza gets exposed by his own bullpen buddies for just wanting to "cause a fuss," and check out the legendary video message Whit sent to Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber that resulted in some epic golf course trash talk and a wild $2,000 Michael Jordan-style betting story. Plus, Garrett Stubbs stops by to drop some hilarious truths about what it’s really like being "friends" with Whit. On the baseball side of things, the crew breaks down the latest MLB headlines and rules confusion. Whit shares his expert, player-first perspective on Jose Caballero’s controversial pitch clock manipulation against Spencer Miles, explaining why it's completely within the rules. We also react to the first wave of All-Star voting results, including Vladimir Guerrero Jr. out-voting Ben Rice despite a cold bat. From Daulton Varsho’s frustrating wrist injury to the mechanics of Tyler Heineman’s DFA, and even a debate about MLB's future stadium in Las Vegas, this episode covers it all. Don't forget to subscribe for more exclusive player insights and hilarious clubhouse stories!
