Daily Puck Drop, Fri., May 2 - Sports unite and inspire us like no other

On Friday’s Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by Chris Egan, KING 5, who is filling in for Jim Moore, because he’s picking his boys from college.  Puck also welcomes “The Scout”, his weekly visit with anonymous baseball scout who currently works for a major league team.  

Puck and Egan open the show talking about the tragedy that touched the Umpqua Community College softball team that Puck and Canzano talked about a few weeks ago.  Egan started off his television career in southern Oregon and wanted to pay his respects.  They also touched in on the amazing start for the Mariners, plus, Grey Zabel getting Steve Hutchinson’s number 76 and Egan details two incredible stories that will air next week on KING 5 involving one of the states top baseball players and a story about courage, perseverance, addiction and triumph involving a Edmonds Community College softball player. It’s truly an unbelievable story that will inspire you.  

Puck welcomes “The Scout” his weekly chat with an anonymous MLB scout.  They try and make sense of the offensive start for the Mariners, the play of Jorge Polanco, his thoughts on Samad Taylor, Tyler Locklear, Jonny Farmelo, health of Bryce Miller, Logan Evans rise and the dominance of Andres Munoz. 

Puck wraps up the show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?”
