On this Monday edition of Sid & Friends in the Morning, Sid covers the loud weekend that was for the New York Yankees and their "torpedo bats", modified lumber that some Yankees hitters have been using to make more solid contact at a higher frequency. The science behind the initiative, originating within the Yankees analytical department, was backed up by the tune of 16 Yankees home runs over the weekend, leading to a three-game sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers to open the 2025 regular season for New York. In other news of the day, President Trump's dealings with Russia and Ukraine turns a bit sour regarding the war between the two countries, the President also teases the possibility of a third term in office and the loophole that may allow such a run in 2028, DOGE head Elon Musk holds a Town Hall in Wisconsin, and Columbia University appoints a new anti-Semite as its President. Jeff Lax, Ron Johnson, Darryl Strawberry, John Catsimatidis, Alan Dershowitz and Wayne Kopping join Sid on this Monday installment of Sid & Friends in the Morning.
