D-Backs fans rip into Chris Mad Dog Russo as host prepares to interview Torey Lovullo - "Dudes got about 40 listeners"

The saga between polarizing radio personality Chris "Mad Dog" Russo and the Arizona Diamondbacks continues. This time, continued postseason media rivalry between Russo and the D-Backs will see Arizona manager Torey Lovullo join the talk show host on his baseball program, High Heat.

According to MLB Insider Bob Nightengale, Torey Lovullo will join Chris "Mad Dog" Russo on his talk show to confront him about reneging on his promise to retire. For those who missed the story between Russo and the D-Backs, the longtime radio personality vowed that if the Arizona Diamondbacks were to come back and defeat the Philadelphia Phillies in the NLCS, he would retire from his media career.

Although fans may be over both Chris "Mad Dog" Russo or even the ongoing saga between him and the Arizona Diamondbacks, neither appears to be going anywhere any time soon.

The hostility between Arizona Diamondbacks fans and the polarizing radio host continues to grow. Some are taking shots at Russo, saying no one listens to his program, even going as far as to say that his show only commands 40 listeners each day.

According to Nightengale, Torey Lovullo will be on his program to question why he went back on his word. He will also allegedly ask Russo if there will be any sort of compromise now that the Arizona Diamondbacks have reached the World Series and what will happen if they were to win the entire thing.
