	Description:		Ben and Stephen discuss the latest confrontation between tennis star Naomi Osaka and a fan at the Indian Wells Open, and bring on Sports Illustrated's Jon Wertheim to discuss the limits of fan interaction with athletes and the comparison to the Williams sisters at the same tournament 20 years ago (03:10). The Star's Doug Smith stops by to break down the Raptors four-game winning streak, including wins vs. Phoenix and Denver, and the impressive post-All Star Break numbers being put up by rookie Scottie Barnes (19:12). Afterwards, Sportsnet's Arden Zwelling joins to discuss some of the minor league prospects that could spend time in the majors this year, the work put in this offseason by Nate Pearson, and the continuing trend by teams to use starting pitchers less and the bullpen as a whole more (29:23).
