No he's not, You're He might walk, yeah, 0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:08.560 at a brisk pace, but a run. He was getting 0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:11.440 a fancy coffee. Get my blue bottle though, My what 0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:15.799 blue bottle? Coffee? Blue bottle? Blue bottle? Is that a 0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:18.680 valley thing? It's a couple of them around. Okay, it's 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.639 expensive coffee. Have you ever had it? I have? Is 0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:23.760 it better? Still? Paying off the payments for that call? 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:24.160 Woah? 0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:25.600 How about that little payment plan? 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:26.040 Huh? 0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:30.400 The air you want of Coffee's blue bottle. All right, Well, 0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:35.440 David Vasse not on today, but we have Ryan Spilborg's 0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:36.600 in the very next segment. 0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:42.720 Spilly, as he is seemingly seemed a lot of baseball 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:48.520 talk from him, MLB and the serious ex MMLB and 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:52.080 the Apple TV Friday Night Game of the Week. 0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:54.240 So he will join us and we'll get a little 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:57.000 bit of a national perspective on him. And I got 0:03:57.120 --> 0:04:00.680 to be honest, Matt, A lot of people I don't 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:04.000 think the Dodgers match up that well against the Phillies. 0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:07.400 And I heard something like that being said here on 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:10.560 the Pettersen Money Show when the playoff seating was being 0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.120 discussed earlier last month. 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:16.960 There was the idea that if the Dodgers slipped out 0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:22.279 of the NL West Division Crown Race, that maybe a 0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:29.000 path through Chicago and Milwaukee would be somewhat easier, might 0:04:29.120 --> 0:04:32.160 lend to a better matchup than the Phillies in a 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:35.840 short series as opposed to a full seven gamer see 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.000 the Phillies and the seven gamer instead of the five 0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:40.719 gamer was kind of the thought there. But you know, 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:43.080 that was before we saw how well the Dodgers were playing. 0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:43.680 Yeah, and that was. 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:46.440 Before we saw Roki Sasaki out there exactly. 0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:51.760 You know, now everything's changed, everything has changed for the better, Brentillon, anytime. 0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:54.560 Until we see something different, Well that is the Rick 0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:57.640 Monday attitude. You know that you're going to have to 0:04:57.640 --> 0:05:00.920 play them eventually, probably, so why not just play them 0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:05.120 right now and prove yourself on the field of battle? 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:05.320 Right? 0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:10.440 Can you prove yourself on the field of battle? And 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:13.240 that that is the question that we will find out. 0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:17.120 While we make a lot of money in playoff revenue 0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:22.000 on LA Sports, your home of the. 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.359 Dodgers, well we make a lot, but we spend a 0:05:24.360 --> 0:05:30.359 lot on Sweet Life food too. I was dumbfounded, just 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:35.360 like one thousand dollars for chicken wings, just blown away 0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:40.960 by how much that food costs. Yeah, they really the 0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:45.080 corporate menu is different than the individual you know, and 0:05:45.240 --> 0:05:47.840 when when they're asking for corporate donations, you know, get 0:05:47.880 --> 0:05:49.599 the idea why. 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:54.559 The Dodgers and every other franchise and college sports team, 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:56.800 I mean, you get the idea why they knock down 0:05:56.800 --> 0:06:04.720 the Boise State seating capacity two thousand seats to add 0:06:04.760 --> 0:06:08.280 more suites because it feels like, you know, getting somebody 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:10.240 to pay fifty bucks for a seat and buy one 0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:12.640 hot dog is a lot different than being able to 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:15.159 charge people one thousand dollars for some a plate of 0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:18.880 wings that you could get at September's for you know, 0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:19.960 twenty bucks. 0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:24.040 It's something. It's the uh. It's the equivalent of buying 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:28.480 a ticket to a charity fundraiser versus buying a table. Hey, 0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:31.000 the company bought a table. Well it was the table 0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:34.359 that's five grand. How much was the individual ticket twenty 0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:38.640 five bucks. It's just for whatever reason, you're going to 0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:41.120 the same place, you're eating the same stuff. But the 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:44.600 second the corporation is attached, it changes the calculus considerably. 0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:47.320 Well, Matt, with all this play by play going on, 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:49.880 we like to deliver great sports talk to the people. 0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:53.480 Sometimes sports talk a little bit of counter programming, And 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.800 like I said for the four hour show, I am 0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:59.600 ready with a film noir, corners, film no wal. 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:01.960 They'll be too sure. I'm going to be as I'm 0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:02.560 supposed to be. 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:05.840 I thought a reputation might be good business. 0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:06.560 Is it again? 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:12.280 Petrols Some saying that this is the greatest movie based 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.480 in Seattle ever. 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:15.200 Singles. 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:23.080 This is not singles, but that is a good Seattle movie. 0:07:23.200 --> 0:07:27.240 Scorchy from nineteen seventy six. 0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:31.520 Is it a good movie? No, so it's not the 0:07:31.560 --> 0:07:32.080 best movie. 0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:34.560 Well that people, the Seattle people have said that just 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:39.880 because of the scenery around Seattle and the nostalgia that 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:45.040 nineteen seventies Seattle brings to the people of Seattle or 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:48.760 the Sea Tac area, if that makes sense. Okay, And 0:07:48.840 --> 0:07:52.160 we got the Mariners with their own world series hopes 0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.520 thinking about a matchup with the Dodgers after it's all 0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:55.160 said and done. 0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:57.360 A West Coast World Series would be sweet. 0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:03.560 Great chases in this around the Monorail Mount, Lake Bridge, 0:08:04.280 --> 0:08:14.760 Sea Tac Airport, the Kingdome, Scorchy stars Connie Stevens. That's 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:19.360 her singing as a secret undercover DEA agent. 0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:22.320 She has her. 0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:27.360 Boobs out most of the time in the movie. She's 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:35.200 very promiscuous. In fact, in this film she's mid copulating 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:38.520 with a guy. Like I was in the middle of 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:41.000 my USC story and I was yanked out of it 0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:45.120 to talk to Dalton Rushing. She's copulating with a guy 0:08:45.960 --> 0:08:48.040 while he shot with a spear gun and the small 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:48.520 of his back. 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:51.120 Oh, I believe Mark. 0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:56.520 This was supposed to be a comeback movie for Connie. 0:08:57.240 --> 0:09:03.080 It wasn't, but the scene fans of Seattle in the 0:09:03.160 --> 0:09:08.360 seventies have kept this movie a cult classic for many years. 0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:13.120 It is also a great display of violence and death. 0:09:14.000 --> 0:09:20.280 Scorchy newly available on Amazon and lots of boob now 0:09:20.320 --> 0:09:25.920 Here's Scorchy.

This is 0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:43.640 a song from the movie, which is odd. This film 0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:46.800 has all of the stuff that we really became accustomed 0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:47.120 to in. 0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:54.880 The eighties and nineties.

I have 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:08.800 a bunch of friends that live in in La County 0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:12.000 that either went to high school or college at UCSP 0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:15.320 that always give me a shout out. So I appreciate 0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:18.000 coming on three times a year and high up my 0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:19.720 buddies in SOCOU. 0:17:19.800 --> 0:17:21.840 We can work something out, Billy. I mean, if you 0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:26.480 want to work it out, you Yeah, I get the UCSB, 0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:31.000 you know, extension to sponsor it and really get going here. 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:32.919 But were you? 0:17:33.280 --> 0:17:36.440 A lot of these wild card matchups are a struggle, 0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:40.080 but the Dodgers seem to have their way with the 0:17:40.119 --> 0:17:42.280 Cincinnati Reds. Is that just more to do with the 0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:45.560 matchup or more to do with the Dodgers flipping a 0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:46.680 switch for the postseason. 0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:50.439 I think it's a couple of things. So there's been 0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:52.679 a lot more parody in baseball last couple of years. 0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:57.400 This wild card you know, format is actually pretty sweet. 0:17:57.480 --> 0:17:58.200 I love it. 0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:02.480 About it. I think you know, when you saw the 0:18:02.600 --> 0:18:05.199 very first year you had teams that were on the 0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:08.960 buy and they all got knocked out. Everybody was like, 0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:12.399 oh my god, it's it's it's off. You know, you 0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:15.520 lose momentum for a baseball season. I'm like, see it, guys, 0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:17.959 like just give It was the first year, and what 0:18:18.040 --> 0:18:20.960 we see now, this is the year four of the format. 0:18:21.480 --> 0:18:23.840 Two out of three World Series winners have had the buy. 0:18:24.520 --> 0:18:28.840 So the buy actually benefits the teams that can reload 0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.679 and put themselves in a position to win. Now do 0:18:31.760 --> 0:18:34.399 I believe in momentum one hundred percent. I do, But 0:18:34.480 --> 0:18:37.320 I also believe in in strength of bullpen and making 0:18:37.359 --> 0:18:39.640 sure you have a fully loaded team. So what I've 0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:42.800 seen from the Dodgers in the last three weeks, I mean, 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:46.160 you're starting to get full health. You know, see Max 0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:49.840 Munsey key k back. I love the story of Mookie Bets. 0:18:49.880 --> 0:18:53.440 Like in August, after watching Mookie, you know, just seeing 0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:54.880 the numbers, I was like, this is the first time 0:18:54.880 --> 0:18:57.639 in his career that MOOKI wasn't going to be an 0:18:57.680 --> 0:19:01.280 eight hundred ops player. And I suggested, you know, like 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:04.160 when he was a sub seven hundred ops. I was like, man, 0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:07.439 he's playing such a great defense at short. We know 0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:10.200 the guy lost fifteen pounds before the start of the season, 0:19:10.320 --> 0:19:13.359 didn't go on the IL, and then played this year, 0:19:13.400 --> 0:19:16.800 and of course, like I think physically that had some 0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:19.000 impact on him. And I just suggest I was like, 0:19:19.000 --> 0:19:21.679 you need to figure out ways to load up the 0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:24.359 lineup so you can get Moro Tani with guys on base. 0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:26.439 And I was like, dude, you should just move Mooki 0:19:26.560 --> 0:19:28.960 down to the ninth spot for a little bit to 0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:32.080 give him a breather and you know, let him catch up, 0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:35.240 give him a little space. And the Dodgers clearly they 0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:37.719 didn't do that, and I heard the story about how 0:19:37.800 --> 0:19:40.440 Mooky and Dave they did. They were like, hey, stop 0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:42.440 worrying about trying to catch your numbers for this year. 0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:44.520 Just go out and have fun. And I think what 0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:48.280 we've seen from Mooki basically since like mid August to 0:19:48.280 --> 0:19:53.560 today is Mooki's having fun, Mooki's swings locked in. And 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.600 I think that all benefits to how the Dodgers are 0:19:56.640 --> 0:19:59.000 playing it because when you have show, hey, Mooki and 0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:01.960 Freddy with the Cassie characters, because the bottom of the 0:20:02.000 --> 0:20:05.280 lineup for a while was really bad. The Dodgers are 0:20:05.320 --> 0:20:09.080 in a great spot right now with health playing well, 0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:12.560 some momentum to kind of go on a nice little 0:20:12.640 --> 0:20:13.080 run right. 0:20:13.000 --> 0:20:16.359 Here, Spilly. We were talking about this a little bit earlier, 0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:22.440 and it's probably fan stuff, but watching Roki Sasaki last 0:20:22.520 --> 0:20:25.680 night was just such an exhale trying to figure out 0:20:25.920 --> 0:20:28.600 the Phillies are good. If it's the Brewers or the 0:20:28.600 --> 0:20:31.440 Cubs or the Padres, they're good. The World Series, someone 0:20:31.480 --> 0:20:33.680 will be good, Like who the hell is gonna get 0:20:33.680 --> 0:20:36.560 the last three outs? And just not only getting the 0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:38.840 last three outs, but the manner in which he got them. 0:20:39.280 --> 0:20:41.639 It just felt like a huge exhale, like, Okay, you 0:20:41.960 --> 0:20:44.680 can figure out the rest of it, but if that's 0:20:44.720 --> 0:20:47.080 what it's going to look like, man, do you feel 0:20:47.119 --> 0:20:49.679 a lot better about this team than you did prior 0:20:49.720 --> 0:20:53.040 to seeing that? Is that prisoner of the moment or 0:20:53.160 --> 0:20:55.080 is there possibly something to that. 0:20:56.720 --> 0:21:00.159 I'm gonna say prisoner of the moment, just because I 0:21:00.160 --> 0:21:03.480 think he got a couple of things here. The game, 0:21:03.560 --> 0:21:06.680 the magnitude, it was at Dodger Stadium, it was up, 0:21:06.720 --> 0:21:10.199 you know, a couple of runs there. It's great to 0:21:10.200 --> 0:21:13.159 see it, and there's no question that like seeing his 0:21:13.359 --> 0:21:16.560 stuff the way that it was working. You know, we 0:21:16.600 --> 0:21:19.280 talked about this today on radio. You know, it's a 0:21:19.359 --> 0:21:22.040 thirteen mile an hour separator between his fastball and the 0:21:22.080 --> 0:21:23.800 split finger, and the split finger has one of the 0:21:23.840 --> 0:21:26.600 lowes spin rates in baseball. It's basically a knuckleball. It's 0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:30.000 an eighty eight mile hour knuckleball, thirteen miles an hour. 0:21:30.040 --> 0:21:33.160 To give you guys like perspective on how much distance 0:21:33.440 --> 0:21:36.760 a hitter can cover. The average swing is like even 0:21:36.800 --> 0:21:40.080 point two feet. So when you're talking about thirteen miles 0:21:40.080 --> 0:21:42.800 an hour, that's about ten to twelve feet of separation 0:21:43.000 --> 0:21:47.520 between the fastball and the splitt and that just means 0:21:47.640 --> 0:21:49.720 zero marchin prayer. As a hitter, you have to get 0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:54.080 that's swinging miss stuff, that's lights out stuff that's like, 0:21:54.359 --> 0:21:57.520 you know, good morning, good afternoon, good night, like see 0:21:57.520 --> 0:22:01.040 you later. But here's here's why I say it's prisoner. 0:22:01.080 --> 0:22:04.240 The moment you saw him doing one specific the variables 0:22:04.240 --> 0:22:07.600 were favorable. You know, this is in a hostile environment. 0:22:07.680 --> 0:22:10.240 This isn't seen you know, the Phillies second time through 0:22:10.280 --> 0:22:13.199 in the series with you know, back to backs. I 0:22:13.200 --> 0:22:15.639 don't know that Roki can do that. I don't know 0:22:16.640 --> 0:22:18.920 with some of the starters that are in the bullpen 0:22:19.040 --> 0:22:22.399 how that's gonna work. And I'll ask you you guys this. 0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:26.680 You look at the Dodger's bullpen. How many pictures are 0:22:26.760 --> 0:22:30.120 in the trust tree? How many pictures when they come 0:22:30.160 --> 0:22:33.040 out out of the pen that you're like, hell, yeah, 0:22:33.240 --> 0:22:36.360 like that's it out? Count them up? There's eight guys, 0:22:38.080 --> 0:22:41.760 Robert like, yes, because you need six. You need six 0:22:41.800 --> 0:22:43.760 in the postseason to feel confident that you're going to 0:22:43.800 --> 0:22:44.120 get out. 0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:49.119 So I guess to try to play the prisoner or 0:22:49.160 --> 0:22:53.280 the moment thing. How big of an issue is it? 0:22:53.320 --> 0:22:55.119 Do do you feel like they have one if the 0:22:55.119 --> 0:22:57.720 stuff is that good? Or like, are we feeling good 0:22:57.760 --> 0:23:00.920 about trying after getting that out in a high leverage situation, 0:23:01.160 --> 0:23:04.000 like because it doesn't seem like if they don't have it, 0:23:04.000 --> 0:23:07.440 it's sustainable, not against the lineup of Philadelphia. So how 0:23:07.440 --> 0:23:09.200 big of an issue is it? And how close do 0:23:09.240 --> 0:23:11.280 you think they might be to getting that thing figured out? 0:23:11.280 --> 0:23:11.720 If at all? 0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:16.520 I think the problem that you have is that it's 0:23:16.560 --> 0:23:21.360 it's still there's still a lot of question marks there. 0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:23.520 There's a lot of flags that I mean, like, do 0:23:23.600 --> 0:23:26.960 I trust that's he had the most? Probably? I mean, 0:23:27.560 --> 0:23:29.720
