Play Tessie - A Red Sox Podcast

by WEEI

The go-to show for fans who watch all 162 games and still can’t get enough Red Sox baseball. Gordo, Sammy, and Pat are here to bring you the latest Sox news, game reactions, and unfiltered opinions from three fans who probably spend way too much time thinking about this team. With new episodes dropping throughout the week, Play Tessie breaks down the big moments and debates the decisions made both on and off the field, because apparently, watching every game just isn’t enough for us either.

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Honestly one of the best baseball podcasts. They talk about more than just the stats and the details everyone already knows.

For the Boston girls · Apr 2025

I’ve listened regularly since Bradfo and Steve and now Bradfo and Coop. Excellent and concise content. This is ‘the straw that stirs the drink’ Sox podcast you’ve been looking for.

Zoidzach · Sep 2022

A must for Red Sox fans! Brad and Coop’s knowledge and passion show in each ep.

boston_gorl · Aug 2022

The definitive podcast for Red Sox fans. Rob is consistently entertaining and informative with the best Red Sox players & related guests the planet has to offer.

Clint Mahala · Jul 2022

Play Tessie is a tough listen right now as Sammy can’t seem to help but make unnecessary fat jokes every few episodes. It’s a shame as the show is otherwise entertaining.

Big Boston Fan · Jun 2024

As a die hard Red Sox fan who listens to almost all Red Sox content this show took a huge dip when Bradfo left. No tempo, no real baseball insight, and mostly recycled media takes with no backing. Pretty annoying listen. Used to love it, needs to change
