Yeah, yeah. There may be a bit of product placement going on here. (Gee, ya think?) But these days, this seems to be the price tag on good entertainment — and that’s what we’re getting here.

Two of MLB’s top power sluggers. A driving range. Grumpy old men in plaid. Mad long balls. Can it get any better?

“Somebody oughta call somebody.” You said it, old dude.
