A historic loss is definitely memorable. Our very frustrated hosts react to the first 26 innings of the Reds series including two hard fought wins with unlikely heroes like Shay Whitcomb, Nate Furman, and some guy named Rafael Devers. Then they turn their attention to the 9th inning of game three. Look, we all know what happened. They talk about it.

On the cocktail side of things, today Ben is drinking a Bitter Memory while Matthew is drinking a Dollyrita. Recipes below.
