The latest episode of “Field of Streams” is live!

In this episode, Dylan Higgins and Matthew Dewoskin discuss the elevator story (again), Daniel Norris’ perfect outing compared to Josh Beckett’s no-hitter, Kyle Schwarber slowing down, Lance Lynn’s struggles with lefties, a very confusing platoon situation with Neil Walker facing Christian Bergman, punting with Tyler Flowers, beginning again with Brandon Finnegan, being more enthusiastic about Jose Reyes than Jose Reyes, comparing Matt’s hatred for Juan Pierre to his hatred for Ben Revere, Rich Hill’s incredible performances of late, Matt’s office presentation, and “The Challenge.”

Contest picks for Thursday, September 24: Patrick Corbin @ LAD (Dylan) and Jarred Cosart vs. PHI (Matt).
