Weekend Sports Huddle with Tom Pollin & Dave Holcomb

WRSP Radio presents the 48th weekly episode of Weekend Sports Huddle with co-hosts Tom Pollin and Dave Holcomb.

The Pittsburgh Penguins blew a 3-1 series lead but still managed to win Game 7 in Washington. The Penguins are now the heavy favorites to win the Stanley Cup title, but our hosts discuss several challenges the Ottawa Senators could present the Penguins in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Of course, for every great victory there's the agony of defeat. The Washington Capitals once again fell short in the playoffs and failed to get past the second round for the 19th straight season. Holcomb and Pollin react to the exit interview from Capitals coach Barry Trotz and whether or not he should remain coach in Washington.

The second half of this episode will be all baseball. First, last Sunday's game between the Chicago Cubs and the New York Yankees produced a lot of controversy when it last 18 innings, and the Cubs didn't get to Colorado for Monday's game until 7 AM the next day. Does baseball have an extra-inning problem?

And while it might be up for debate whether baseball has an extra-inning problem, no one is going to argue the situation for the Pittsburgh Pirates has gone from bad to worse this past week. Starting pitcher Jameson Tallion is out indefinitely after undergoing surgery for testicular cancer. Can anything else go wrong for the Pirates?
