Brian chats with The Ringer’s Michael Pina about the recent Celtics-Bucks game, how the two teams match up, whether or not the Celtics are better off as the 2-seed, and more (0:30). Then, he recaps the Red Sox’s first series against the Orioles, Adam Duvall’s hot start, the team’s shaky pitching, and what's up with Chris Sale (27:45). Finally, with the Bruins winning their 60th game on Sunday, Brian assesses where the team ranks amongst the best recent Boston sports teams (56:00).
