I don't know if I'm gonna make 30 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 7: it through this postseason. Steve Sacks. I'm sitting on the 31 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 7: edge of my seat listening and watching this game last night, 32 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 7: just like Game four of the NLDS, in which the 33 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 7: Dodgers beat the Phillies last Thursday at extra innings, and 34 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:45,639 Speaker 7: last night just watching Blake Snell go to school against 35 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 7: the Milwaukee Brewers and then the bullpen. Yikes, the bullpen 36 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 7: did something they've done a lot this year, and that's 37 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 7: make it very interesting and make it too close for 38 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 7: comfort in the ninth inning. But what a game last night? 39 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 7: Playoff baseball? Is there anything better? 40 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 8: It was? It was? It was amazing. I was gonna 41 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 8: call you when Sasaki walked the second guy, but I 42 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 8: figure you were probably either getting the knife or the 43 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 8: razor blade ready and you were gonna end it right there, 44 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 8: and so I didn't do it. But yeah, that was 45 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 8: a thrilling game. Uh, what the heck? Happened on that 46 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 8: double play. I I mean, there's not enough time today 47 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 8: to to you know, decipher what was going on there. 48 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 8: I couldn't believe that. I've never seen that in baseball 49 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 8: in all my years. 50 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 7: We're gonna dissect it coming up in just a little bit. 51 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 7: We'll hear the play, we'll hear from Dave Roberts. I'm 52 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 7: gonna get your thoughts on it, and we're gonna go 53 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 7: deep into what happened on that double play with the 54 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 7: bases loaded in the ball hit by Max Munseeing the 55 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 7: fourth inning, because it was a pivotal play. It turned 56 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 7: out the Dodgers got just enough offense despite that fourth 57 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 7: inning base running blunder and misque and wild double play 58 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 7: pulled off by the Milwaukee Brewers last night. Blake'snew though, 59 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 7: I mean, this is why the Dodgers went out and 60 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 7: signed Blake Snell. This is also the reason Blake Snell 61 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 7: wanted to be in a Dodger uniform. Was the chance 62 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 7: to pitch in a game like last night. And he 63 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 7: went out and absolutely dominated the Milwaukee Brewers for eight 64 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 7: shutout innings, allowed just one hit, face the minimum amount 65 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 7: of batters, struck out ten along the way, what he 66 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 7: did last night was something we haven't seen since Eisenhower 67 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 7: was the President of the United States and Don Larson 68 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 7: threw a perfect game in a World Series. Last night 69 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 7: he was near perfect and was absolutely fantastic for the Dodgers. 70 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 7: Could have gone out there for maybe the ninth inning. 71 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 7: The Dodgers elected to the gulpen. But Blake Snell, what 72 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 7: did you see last night from the left hander? 73 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 8: First of all, I thought you were gonna tell me 74 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 8: Eisenhower had a good splitter or something like that. Yeah, 75 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 8: he came clearly framing the time of when it happened, 76 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 8: he could. 77 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 3: Throw for strikes. He was wild there. 78 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 8: Bit yeah, yeah, Well, I'll tell you what Blake Snell was. 79 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 8: He was just remarkable. And you know, you could have 80 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 8: told him that the change up was coming and they 81 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 8: still couldn't hit it that change up. I think one 82 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 8: of the innings he didn't throw anything except the change up, 83 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 8: maybe one curveball. He didn't throw a fastball that one inning, 84 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 8: and he got everybody out. I mean, that's how dynamite 85 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 8: that thing was. You just can't tell the difference between 86 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 8: that and fastball. But he well knows that you have 87 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 8: to establish the fastball and then everything works off of that. 88 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 8: That's always in your mind that he's got ninety seven, 89 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 8: and you know you can't catch up to that, so 90 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 8: you have to look for it. And when you look 91 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 8: for it, he drops that change up on you and 92 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 8: you're done. And it was just remarkable. I mean, his 93 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 8: control was amazing, his tempo, his cadence throughout the game. 94 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 8: I think he could have went out there in the 95 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 8: ninth and shut it down. I understand why he didn't, 96 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 8: but man, he was really good. And nothing I want 97 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 8: to say too about the offense for the Dodgers. I 98 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 8: think I counted six balls that they hit over one 99 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 8: hundred that were caught, and I mean, you can't guide 100 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 8: the ball, but my gosh, when are they gonna fall? 101 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 8: They are not falling for this team. If you just 102 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 8: look at all the you know, strikeouts for the Dodgers, 103 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 8: how many times did the Dodgers strike out four times? 104 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 3: That's it and the. 105 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 8: Brewers struck out eleven times. I mean there's definitely a 106 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 8: difference here as far as contact goes. You saw the game, 107 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 8: I mean, just how many times they hit the ball 108 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,119 Speaker 8: hard right at somebody. Mookie Betts hits into the double play. 109 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 8: The months you play to center field. I mean you 110 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 8: can go on and on. There's tons of times where 111 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 8: they hit the ball right on the screws and they 112 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 8: had nothing to show for it, right at the guy. 113 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 8: I mean, one of these games that's not going to happen, 114 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 8: and everything you hit hard is gonna land and you're 115 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 8: gonna wind up scoring eleven runs. Right now, it looks 116 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 8: like two to one, you know, four to three. But 117 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,359 Speaker 8: this is going to change if they keep swinging the 118 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 8: bat the way they are. 119 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, Taskar Hernandez hit a ball right on 120 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 7: the screws, right to the left fielder. The the one 121 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 7: hundred miles an hour hits and you know, at bats 122 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 7: from Freddy Freeman. I think he had three of them 123 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 7: last night. 124 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 8: It's ridiculous. 125 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,679 Speaker 7: The home run that Freddie Freeman hit, the forty five 126 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 7: degree launch angle was unbelievable. We talk about lasers that 127 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 7: get out and balls that are you know, twenty one 128 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 7: degree launch angle that you know, just get you know, 129 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 7: are just missiles that get out of a ballpark. He 130 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 7: almost hit the roof last night in Milwaukee and it 131 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 7: landed like four feet past the wall, out of the 132 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 7: reach of the right fielder in Milwaukee, but an absolute 133 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 7: towering home run. 134 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,799 Speaker 8: I thought it was gonna hit the roof on the replay. 135 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 8: When I saw the replay, I thought, how did that 136 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 8: not hit the roof? It was so high and you 137 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 8: know Freddy, Freddy kind of has a little bit of 138 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 8: an uppercut coming to the ball, so he's going to 139 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 8: get some lyft right away. And that ball went straight 140 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 8: up in the air. Was one of those that you 141 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 8: look at if you're in the outfield seats. You look 142 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 8: at it and it's hit in the air and you think, okay, 143 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 8: that's that's gonna be popped up to you know, short 144 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 8: right field. Maybe the second basement comes in, goes out 145 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 8: for it, and it keeps going and it keeps going 146 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 8: and it's not coming down yet, and pretty soon it's 147 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 8: over the fence. And that is just what you call 148 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 8: backspin on the baseball. They just never come down. I 149 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 8: don't know how long that hangtime was, but it was. 150 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 8: It was kind of like a rakey punt. I mean, 151 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 8: that thing just wasn't coming down. 152 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 7: No, it was a moonshot from Freddie Freeman last night. 153 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 7: Gave the Dodgers the one to nothing lead. They hang 154 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,559 Speaker 7: on for a two to one win. In all time 155 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 7: performance from Blake Snell in Game one last night, eight innings, 156 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 7: no runs, one hit, ten strikeouts, did not walk about 157 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 7: her through all one hundred and three pitches, twenty two whiffs. 158 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 7: He faced a minimum amount of brewers, which was twenty four. 159 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 7: He had a pickoff of the runner at first on 160 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 7: the one guy who did single off of him. Blake 161 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 7: Snell has now made three postseason starts for the Dodgers, 162 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 7: the wild Card game seven innings, nine strikeouts, the NLDS 163 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 7: start against the Phillies six innings, nine strikeouts last night 164 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 7: in Game one, eight innings, no runs, ten strikeouts. He's 165 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 7: got in point eighty six era, and here he is 166 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 7: after the game. You knew there'd be a lot of 167 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 7: love coming from one guy there at Family Field Park 168 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 7: in Milwaukee, and it came from the. 169 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 3: One and only David Vasse. 170 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 2: I try to tell you he was different tonight. He 171 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 2: showed it. Eight innings, face the minimum amount of matters. 172 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 2: That's the one and only snails Zilla. Blake. How did 173 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 2: it feel last night to deliver in such a tight game. 174 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,559 Speaker 2: I mean, it feels good. We got we got one win. 175 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 9: Especially here I mean, this crowd is amazing. It was 176 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 9: a lot of fun to pitch in front of. So 177 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 9: able to get this one is amazing. That team is 178 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,199 Speaker 9: a tough team, So I mean, yeah, I did really good. 179 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 9: They're tough, they put together good at bats. They kept 180 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 9: me up all night trying to figure out, you know, 181 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 9: how do I want to attack, when do I want 182 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 9: to change? Stuff like that. So very excited that we 183 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 9: were able to get this one, and then, you know, 184 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 9: look forward to tomorrow. 185 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 2: When I saw you yesterday, you were already having your 186 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 2: game fase, so it seemed like this was different for you. 187 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 9: Yeah. I mean my whole life, I've dreamt at this moment, 188 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 9: and to be able to go eight it was probably 189 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 9: the best part for me because I've always the seventh 190 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 9: was pretty special. I've always wanted to be out there 191 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 9: for God bless America, So to be able to be 192 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 9: out there for that was special for me. 193 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: You know, I always want more for you. Did you 194 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 2: want more for yourself? Did you ever think about pushing 195 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 2: back on Dave taking you out there? 196 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 9: Not trust him? He knows how bad I want it, 197 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 9: But he's the manager of this this team, so we're 198 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 9: gonna trust him and keep going. 199 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 3: All right, there's Blake SNeW with David Vast. 200 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 7: How about that he always wanted to be out there 201 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 7: when they played God Bless America, love it. I think 202 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 7: that's another subtle shot at Kevin Cash for taking him 203 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 7: out after six and he's in the World Series back 204 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 7: in twenty twenty against the Dodgers when he was absolutely 205 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 7: carving up the Dodgers down in the bubble at Arleington. 206 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 3: But he said, he's dreamt of this. This is what 207 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 3: he was wanted. 208 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 7: Yeah, He's wanted to pitch in a World Series game 209 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 7: and not have restraints on him. He's wanted to go 210 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 7: out in the postseason game and go out and dominate 211 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 7: and to be to pitch as long as he can 212 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 7: and for how you know, throw as many pitches as 213 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 7: he can. And he got exactly that last night from 214 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 7: Dave Roberts and Mark Pryor allowing him to go out there. 215 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 7: The pitch count was right around one hundred. He could 216 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 7: have gone back out there for the ninth inning. I 217 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 7: wanted him to go back out there for the ninth 218 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 7: inning Steve Sacks. 219 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 3: But he didn't. 220 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 7: They elect to go to rookie Susaki and for the 221 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 7: first time this postseason, Sasaki showed command issues last night, 222 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 7: got himself into trouble. Blake Trinin was able to get 223 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 7: him out of it with a strikeout to end the game. 224 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 7: But I don't know it has a little bit of 225 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 7: the shine come off of rookie Susaki after last night's 226 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 7: ninth inning performance. 227 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 8: No, I don't think so. You know, he had one 228 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,439 Speaker 8: one game here where he wasn't good. I mean, he 229 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 8: just didn't have the command really of anything, and I 230 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 8: think he was just caught up in the moment. You 231 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 8: can see him in the bullpen, the kind of look 232 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 8: on his face when he was, you know, ramping up 233 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 8: to get gone. He kind of had that deer in 234 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 8: the headlin's look. But you know, I think he was 235 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 8: a little tentative. But it's okay. I mean, you know 236 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 8: it's one game. They won the game. That's what counts. 237 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 8: You had trying to come in there to close it. 238 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 8: Thank God, he had some good mustard on that last pitch, 239 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 8: because you know, when the ball is coming in and 240 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 8: Terrang's got got a beat on it, he's looking fastball. 241 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 8: He sees fastball, but he couldn't judge the giddy up 242 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 8: that the ball had to get That ball was at 243 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 8: least chin high, and yeah, he took a strong cut 244 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 8: and you know, didn't get it, but you know, that's 245 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 8: what that's what a good fastball does. 246 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 7: Rookie Sisaki depends a lot on swinging and missus and batters, 247 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 7: chasing pitchers out of the zone with that split finger, forkball, 248 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 7: whatever you want to call it. When it dances and 249 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 7: it's electric and he can get guys to swing out 250 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,319 Speaker 7: of it, out of the strike zone. That's what he's 251 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 7: been really good, especially now in this new role as 252 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 7: a closer. Electric fastball, really dominant split finger. That's his 253 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 7: bread and butter. That's one of the things the Dodgers 254 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 7: wanted him to do, though, was develop a third pitch. 255 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 7: If you don't have that split finger, you can't just 256 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 7: rely on a ninety nine mile an hour fastball because 257 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 7: they're sitting on it. And that was part of his 258 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 7: problem back in April and early May and led to 259 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 7: him being shut down and hurt and trying to reinvent 260 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 7: himself as a reliever, was finding a third pitch that 261 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 7: he can throw for a strike. And last night, the Brewers, 262 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 7: they're not a team that chases like the Phillies. The 263 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 7: Phillies are a free swinging team, and he was dominant 264 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 7: against them in that series. But now you get a 265 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 7: Brewers team a little bit more, you know, cautious, a 266 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 7: little bit more conservative at the plate, aren't going to 267 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 7: chase pitches, are going to get the ones that are 268 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 7: just kind of outside on the frames of the black 269 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 7: there on the strike zone. He doesn't get those swinging 270 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 7: missus last night. And I think the matchup is not 271 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 7: a good one for rookie Susaki if he's not able 272 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 7: to get throw strikes and get swinging and missus for 273 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 7: strikes because these guys aren't chasing saxy. 274 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, okay, here's here. I want to kind of break 275 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 8: this up a little bit. So it was Bowers that 276 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 8: hit the ball with all the problem that happened in centerfield? 277 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 8: Is that right? I mean he was a pinch hitter. 278 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 8: He gets the ball to center field and all this 279 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 8: stuff happens. Okay, so he's ahead on the count. Rokie 280 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 8: can't throw a strike, and then Bowers is sitting I 281 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 8: think the count was three to one. Well, you know 282 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 8: what he's looking for. He's looking for some dead red. 283 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 8: He's looking for a fastball right down the middle of 284 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 8: the plate, and he got it. And that's what happens 285 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 8: when you get in hitters counts. Bowers was sitting on 286 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 8: the fastball. He was key hole in that fastball. It 287 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 8: means that ball has to be about the size of 288 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 8: your fist coming into home plate, and if it's outside 289 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 8: of those parameters, you're not swinging because you still have 290 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 8: three two to work with. But that ball was right there. 291 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 8: He timed it up and he hammered it, and that 292 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 8: we're lucky that ball didn't go out. If you got 293 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 8: a little lyft on that ball's way out. So the 294 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 8: point is this, when you talk about this team how 295 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 8: they like to, you know, work the count, they don't chase. 296 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 8: This team doesn't chase. Well, they chased a lot of pitches, 297 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 8: it seemed yesterday only because they were, you know, drastically fooled. 298 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 8: But here's the other side of that. When you say 299 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 8: they don't chase, how many balls did they take for 300 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 8: strikes that were right down the middle of the plate. 301 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 8: I saw him do it early in the count. I 302 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,719 Speaker 8: saw him take strike three many a time. Many of 303 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 8: their strikeouts were not swinging, they were taking pitches, and 304 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 8: I was sitting there thinking about talking to you, and 305 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 8: I was gonna say, oh yeah, this team, boy, they 306 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 8: really are selective. They don't chase and they don't hit 307 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 8: either because they strike out a lot. Because they don't 308 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 8: chase because they take strike three. So you know, it 309 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 8: cuts both ways. If you're gonna be that selective and 310 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 8: not stretch a little bit, you're gonna take a lot 311 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 8: of strike three calls. And that's what they did. 312 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 7: So what does Sasaki need to do now moving forward 313 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 7: in this series against this Brewers team? 314 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 3: B more strike one? 315 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 8: Just strike one? Yeah, get strike one. That sets the 316 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 8: whole table. You ask any pitcher how many times does 317 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 8: Blake Snell strike one last night? I mean it changes 318 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 8: the whole sequence of the hitter. What he's gonna get 319 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 8: if your strike one you were in charge, man, this 320 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 8: check out the splits between a hitter when he's O 321 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 8: one and when he's one zero. It's drastically different. The 322 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 8: first pitch of the sequence makes all the difference in 323 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 8: the world. 324 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 7: Blake Snell last night, eighteen of the twenty four batters 325 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 7: that he faced, he got first pitch strike. There you go, 326 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 7: rookie Skizsaki one of five batters that he faced. 327 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 3: He got litterally pitched. 328 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 8: Strike one is where it's at brother strike one, that's it. 329 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 7: If he can attack the zone and again he gets 330 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 7: to He loves the fastball, Steve, and last night he 331 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 7: wasn't turning around looking at the radar gun on the 332 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 7: jumbo tron there in Milwaukee. 333 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 3: But you can tell watching the game that wasn't. 334 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 7: One hundred, that wasn't ninety nine that he was throwing 335 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 7: that fastball was a little tick down at seventy seven 336 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 7: or nextee me ninety seven ninety eight. 337 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 3: Is he still effective. 338 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 7: At ninety seven, at ninety eight, that he is at 339 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 7: one hundred hundred and one like he was in the 340 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 7: last series. 341 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 5: Oh? 342 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 8: Yes, and he can be effective at ninety five. Of 343 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 8: course he can. I mean, there's no doubt about it. 344 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 8: A lot of pitchers, you know, early in your career, 345 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 8: they're trying to light up the gun, which I understand. 346 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 8: But when they get a little bit more suave about it, 347 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 8: and they learn how to pitch and they get a 348 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 8: little bit better command, they can ratchet that down to 349 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 8: ninety four ninety five and still get people out. You 350 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 8: pitch a little more to contact, but the best pitching 351 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 8: in all the sports, and you know you heard Snell 352 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 8: talk about it yesterday. Is a well placed fastball. That's 353 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 8: the best pitch because you work everything off of that, 354 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 8: and if you can locate your fastball, then you can 355 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 8: get people out. I mean, I mean, look at an 356 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 8: exaggerated fashion, Look at Kyle Hendricks, the former pitcher for 357 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 8: the Cups. This guy was going eighty eight eighty nine 358 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 8: and pitching inside and breaking bats. Pitching eighty eight eighty nine. Okay, 359 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 8: so you can still be effective because you know, he 360 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 8: had great command, he had movement, and he had a 361 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 8: really fantastic changeup, but he was still getting people out 362 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 8: with his fastball and breaking their bats. So in eighty 363 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 8: eight miles an hour. So absolutely, you can be effective 364 00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 8: at ninety five ninety seven for sure. 365 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 7: Well last night Snell was so effective. He was dominant 366 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 7: against the Milwaukee Brewers. They didn't have a chance against 367 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 7: him for eight innings of one hit ball that he 368 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 7: gave up, and that one hit to Caleb Durban, a 369 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 7: single dissenter to lead off the bottom of the third inning. Well, 370 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 7: Caleb Durban was at first base not long as he 371 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 7: was picked off and caught stealing the second game in 372 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 7: a row, by the way, for Blake Snell. He did 373 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,400 Speaker 7: it against the Phillies runner at first, picked him off, 374 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 7: got him in a rundown, threw him out, just like 375 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 7: he did last night. I mean, this guy was in 376 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 7: his notebook all night long. You heard it what David 377 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 7: Vessai talk about, how he was just up the night 378 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 7: before thinking about his game plan. I even I would 379 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 7: heard somebody say that the card he's got in the 380 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 7: back of his back pocket that he kind of kept 381 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,840 Speaker 7: going to every so often looking at it for notes, 382 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 7: that's just a decoy that he just does that just 383 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,959 Speaker 7: to slow things up, just to look at it and 384 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 7: get the hitter thinking, hmm, Okay, is he changing up 385 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 7: his game plan? Is he going to plan B? Is 386 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 7: he looking to see what plans C? Is he looking 387 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 7: to mix it up? Is he looking to see what 388 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 7: my tendencies are? Okay, now I'm gonna switch it up 389 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 7: because he knows my tendencies. 390 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 3: It's all a mind game with yeah, and if. 391 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 8: You can get him thinking about that stuff, excuse me, 392 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 8: instead of thinking about barreling up the baseball. It's an 393 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 8: advantage to the pitcher. And another thing I want to 394 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 8: say about Durban when he was leading off a first base, 395 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 8: did you notice, you know, against left handers, a lot 396 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 8: of guys today, they go on first movement and they 397 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 8: don't read the picture. They they just as soon as 398 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,160 Speaker 8: he starts the movement, they're going. And you know, if 399 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 8: you just guess right, I mean for him over to 400 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 8: first base, they're nailed. Of course, you can only throw 401 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 8: over three times if you don't pick him off. He's 402 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 8: automatically at second base, which is a stupid role. Another 403 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 8: put one in the stupid column for that. But the 404 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 8: other thing that Durbin did, tim is he he did 405 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 8: like a secondary lead jump jump jump, and then he 406 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 8: took off. I mean, you're looking right at him right, 407 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 8: if he's leaning even leaning on his right leg, you 408 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 8: throw over. He's jumped. Been almost hippity hoppin a couple 409 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 8: a couple of times. I mean, my gosh, step off 410 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 8: and throw it. That's exactly what he did. He picked 411 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 8: him off. I don't get that philosophy about of stealing bases. 412 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 8: I've never seen that before, and my gosh, I don't 413 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 8: think it's gonna work. 414 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 7: Could it be because nobody I don't know respects the 415 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 7: run game anymore. It's not as prevalent as it once was. 416 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,199 Speaker 7: Some teams are really good at it now, and the 417 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 7: teams that are it seems like they take full advantage 418 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 7: of it. The Diamondbacks come to mind with Corbyn Carroll. 419 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 7: The Brewers are scrappy team that Pat Murphy likes to 420 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 7: run and put the ball in play because teams aren't 421 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 7: very good at holding guys on and this team can 422 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 7: flat out run. Maybe they just get greedy and think, Okay, 423 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 7: we're so good at it, and this pitchers are so 424 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 7: locked in and worried about the hitters. The odds are 425 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 7: he's not gonna throw over. The odds are Blake Snell's 426 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 7: not worried about me. The odds are he's just gonna 427 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 7: worry about the batter, and we're just gonna run circles 428 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 7: around these guys on the mound. 429 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 8: I can't believe that those guys are steeped in that much, Hubert. 430 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 8: I just don't believe if they are, shame on you. 431 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 8: She just got picked off and looks silly because you're 432 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 8: jumping around over there like a rabbit. Listen, when you're 433 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 8: gonna steal bases, you want to be quiet, quiet like 434 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,479 Speaker 8: a mouse. You don't want anybody to know them. Boom, 435 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 8: you're gone. These guys are jumping around and step step 436 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 8: step on you know, Snell steps off and and picks 437 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 8: them off. That's an easy one. I hope they keep 438 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:25,640 Speaker 8: doing this, yeah, because they're not going to steal any 439 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 8: bases that way. 440 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:26,640 Speaker 5: Well. 441 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 7: I don't get it either, because he's looking right at you. 442 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 7: As you said, he's looking right at you. He's fifty 443 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 7: feet away from you. It's one thing if it's Tyler 444 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 7: Glass now who gives up a lot of stolen bases, 445 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 7: because he's got a long, high kick and deliver right handed. 446 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 8: He's got to turn around. 447 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 7: Absolutely, and Blake trying the same way. You know, they 448 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,360 Speaker 7: run off of him. Sure, Yellow stole the base last 449 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 7: night off of him, and he's not very fast. So 450 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,479 Speaker 7: the right handers on the Dodgers, Yeah, they've had an 451 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 7: issue all year controlling guys on bass. And Rick Monday 452 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 7: has gone through the roof talking about you can't go 453 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 7: to sleep. 454 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 2: On the mound. 455 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 3: You gotta remember they're over at first base. 456 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, But to have Blake's who's looking right at you, Yeah, 457 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 7: that doesn't make any sense whatsoever. 458 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, and doing I mean a lot of times what 459 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 8: a pitcher will do, and I never wanted to get caught. 460 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 8: Sometimes when you're on second base, and there's two ways 461 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 8: you get picked off. Is if a head shifter where 462 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 8: you're you're looking back at the shortstop and the picture 463 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 8: to say, you know, you're looking back and back and 464 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 8: back and back. And when you're looking at the picture 465 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 8: and you look back at the shortstop, when you when 466 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 8: you turn one more time to look at the picture, 467 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 8: he turns and throws and you you're dead meat. The 468 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 8: other way to do it is you have a foot 469 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 8: shifter where a guy is leaning on his right foot 470 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 8: towards third base. When you see him lean over there, 471 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 8: the shortstop throws his glove towards second base as you 472 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 8: know the target, and the picture turns and throws. It's 473 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 8: a timing play. So you never want to be on 474 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 8: that right leg either going to second or or going 475 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 8: to third base, because you'll get picked off. Durban's over there, 476 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 8: you know, jumping on his right leg. I'm thinking, wow, yeah, 477 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 8: pick him off, and he. 478 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 7: Did almost too easy for Snell. Easy you pick him 479 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 7: off in the third inning and he is Steve Sax. 480 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 7: I'm Tim Kates we're often running here on this Tuesday 481 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 7: edition of Saxon Kates and. 482 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 3: The AM want you to be a part of the show. 483 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 7: Dodgers win Game one of the NLCS last night to 484 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 7: take a one zero series lead.

As the Dodgers up 503 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 7: one game to nothing in this NLCS with a two 504 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 7: to one win last night over the Milwaukee Brewers. Blake 505 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 7: Snell absolutely dominant. Eight shutout Indians, allowed just one hit, 506 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 7: struck out ten. He has been absolutely fantastic in October, 507 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 7: as delivered Blake Snell here in postseason play as the 508 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 7: Dodgers win last night in Milwaukee. But it wasn't without 509 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 7: the dramatics. It's the double play everybody is talking about 510 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 7: Steve Sacks and it came in the top half of 511 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 7: the fourth inning. The Dodgers loaded the bases with one 512 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 7: out against Quinn Priester. And here's what happened with Max 513 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 7: Munsey up at bad. 514 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 10: Munsey Swington's hit. It's a high fly ball left center 515 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 10: field on the warning track at. 516 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 11: The wall of a leaping at tempt. He bobbled it and 517 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 11: he brought it in self freelick. Incredible. Now the relay 518 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 11: home and Hernandez is out, Tayo trying to tag from third, 519 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,880 Speaker 11: and then Contrerez the catcher runs down. 520 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 3: To third, he's ruled out. 521 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 11: There's confusion on the field, but self Freelick took away 522 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 11: a grand slam. 523 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 12: And bad base running at third. You've got to tag 524 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 12: and for some reason to ask her her Nanuz was 525 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 12: not tagging on the ball. The ball went off the glove, 526 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 12: then it hit the fence and came down. 527 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 7: After you the call in the field, the force out 528 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 7: at home plate is confirmed, the runner is out. 529 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 11: The confirmed on the runner of third base when the 530 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 11: force out is out. 531 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 3: Exactly what I said. Terrible base running. 532 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 10: Absolute blounder from the Dodgers in this fourth inning. Bases 533 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 10: loaded one out and their base running runs him out 534 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 10: of the fourth inning with no runs across. 535 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 7: Yeah, the Dodgers are they golden opportunity to bust it 536 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 7: open in the fourth inning run themselves out of the inning. 537 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 7: Bases loaded one out. Max Munsey hit the deep flying 538 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,479 Speaker 7: ball to center field. Brewers outfielder sal Frelick was tracking 539 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 7: the ball as he leaped to catch it. The ball 540 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 7: bounced off his glove, then hit the wall and went 541 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 7: back into his glove. Max Munsey was not out because 542 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 7: the ball hit the wall. The Dodgers runners seamlessly though 543 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 7: thought the ball was caught because they tagged up instead 544 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 7: of taking off for the next base. It was a 545 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,919 Speaker 7: double tag from Taoscar Hernandez, who initially tagged up. They 546 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 7: went back tagged up again, was called out at home 547 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,680 Speaker 7: on the force play, and then the catcher, William Contresh, 548 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 7: ran down to third and got will Smith, who did 549 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 7: not run from second to third on what was a 550 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 7: force play, then at third for a double play, the 551 00:25:56,200 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 7: old eight six' to two double play a wild. Sequence Steve, 552 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 7: sachson have you ever seen anything like that? 553 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 8: Before never seen anything like, it first time, ever first 554 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 8: time you, were first time, caller So i've never seen. It, 555 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 8: ANYWAY i get the confusion because maybe they didn't see 556 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 8: the ball hit the. Wall you got to see it 557 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 8: on replay to know. That so we have the benefit 558 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:22,159 Speaker 8: of being in the media to see. That but what 559 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 8: in the heck was Ta Oscar hernandez doing at third? 560 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 8: Base you're four hundred feet away in center field from home, 561 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 8: plate and why aren't you tagging? Up all you have 562 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 8: to do as soon as it hits his, glove you. Run, 563 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 8: okay you're at third. Base the ball hits the, glove 564 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 8: it doesn't matter if he hits the. Fence after, that 565 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 8: it just hits his. Glove you wait till it hits his. 566 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 2: Glove. 567 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 8: Boom you can actually run. Backwards you could have probably 568 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 8: crawled and still make. It you're four hundred feet. Away 569 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 8: they did had to do a re to throw and 570 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 8: they throw him. Out how does that? 571 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 3: Happen i'm watching. 572 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 8: THIS i can't believe. It he hits his. Glove you 573 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 8: run half heartily if you want to home, plate and 574 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 8: you're standing, up simply standing. Up but how in the 575 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 8: world do they get a relay and throw you out 576 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 8: at home? Plate and they had him by a good. 577 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 8: MARGIN i absolutely do not understand what's going through his. Head. 578 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 7: Now there's a lot of questions in the whole, Sequence 579 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 7: and you're, right it's such a bang bang. Play that 580 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:36,120 Speaker 7: happens with the centerfielder with his back almost to, everybody 581 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 7: running to make a catch in left center, field right 582 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 7: next to the, wall so it's tough for everybody to. 583 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 3: SEE i get. That but the play is then ruled a. 584 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 7: Hit the left field umpire rules the safe like the, 585 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 7: ball it's not a, catch it's in, play and people 586 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 7: still stood. Around Will smith still stood a few feet 587 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 7: off his second base confused the runner first was already 588 00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 7: at second, Base, tayo And. 589 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 8: Will was telling him to go, right you, know because 590 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 8: he thought it was caught right. 591 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 7: There at that, point are the base coaches needing to 592 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 7: then communicate with the runners or maybe they're? Confused, yeah 593 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 7: as too. Far what's happy, because as you, said you've 594 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 7: never seen. This, now you've been in the base in 595 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 7: the game of baseball for, decades and if you've never seen, 596 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 7: IT i gotta Imagine Chris woodward And Dino, ebel the 597 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 7: third base, coach probably have never seen it as. 598 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 8: Well it's it's it's a one. Off you'll probably never 599 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 8: see it in your life. Again play exactly like. That 600 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 8: but all things being, equal the key is you lost 601 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 8: a run because you didn't tag up at third. Base 602 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 8: why what else do you have to? Do you, know 603 00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 8: you go back to third when the balls hit that 604 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 8: and you're so close to, home you're ninety feet. Away 605 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 8: as soon as it hits his, glove you sprint to 606 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 8: home and you're, saying doesn't matter if the ball comes 607 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 8: out and hits the, fent doesn't. Matter at the after 608 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 8: it hits his, glove you're you're free to go all, 609 00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 8: right he's ninety feet, away the balls four hundred feet. Away, 610 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 8: okay this is a no. Brainer the ball hits his, 611 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 8: glove you go, home and it's.

Scoring doesn't. Matter or if he 629 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 7: catches it and it goes over the fence because he 630 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 7: hits the wall and he loses it out of his 631 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 7: glove and it's a brain. Slam, okay, still so what 632 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 7: you're gonna score because everybody's going to score on the. 633 00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 7: Play the play there as the base, runner no matter 634 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 7: matter what happened on the, play catch home run ball 635 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 7: off his glove like it, happened the play is for 636 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 7: the third base or for the runner on third base 637 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 7: to go. 638 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 3: Tag right right. 639 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 8: Right that is exactly well.

Changer did you 658 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 8: see that crowd get back into that when that umpire 659 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 8: announced he's out at home and he's out at third 660 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 8: that place with?

Least every run is absolutely 662 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 8: precious in this in this. Playoff you saw it last, 663 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 8: night two to. One if they don't get that insurance, 664 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 8: run we're extra, innings, Right so so you have to 665 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 8: not MAKE i, mean that's that's a mistake that nobody 666 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 8: should make, anywhere especially in The Major League. Baseball you 667 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 8: know the rules you tag up on a ball like, that, 668 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 8: RIGHT i, mean it's it's, uh it's. Crazy, now if 669 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:53,239 Speaker 8: you're at second, base you're. 670 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 7: Halfway, okay you're, halfway, right next, question what are the 671 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 7: other runners on? Base, okay you're. 672 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 8: Halfway and and if if he catches the, ball you 673 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 8: gotta go. 674 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 3: Back you, know if he masses the, ball you have 675 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 3: a better chance to, score. 676 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 8: Correct so you can. Score, Now now let's say you're 677 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 8: halfway and you see that he's gonna. Go he's going 678 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 8: to go into the. Wall he's left his feet and 679 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 8: you can see him by his. Speed he's gonna hit the. 680 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 8: Wall but there's a chance he can catch. It, now 681 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 8: that's a judgment play on the second on the guy 682 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,959 Speaker 8: running at. Second you can scamper back and tag up and, 683 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 8: go but you gotta watch because the, ball it's the. 684 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 8: Wall you gotta. Score you got absolutely to score because 685 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 8: those guys are backing them. Up so that's kind of 686 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 8: a little judgment play. There but for the most, part you're. 687 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 8: Halfway it felt. 688 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 7: Like Tommy, edmund out of the three base, runners he 689 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 7: was the runner at first base when the bases were. 690 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 7: Loaded in this, instance he might have been the only 691 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 7: one that kind of knew what was happening and was 692 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 7: making the right decision because he was already at second. 693 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 7: Base and as you, said Will smith tell him, like, no, no, 694 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 7: no go, back go, back go back because it's a catch. 695 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 3: When it really wasn't a. Catch but two. 696 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 7: Things one you mentioned the momentum and the crowd into 697 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 7: the game after that call was, announced as a double 698 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 7: play and The dodgers ran themselves out of the bases 699 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 7: loaded situation kept it at a zero. Game what Did 700 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 7: Blake snell do in the bottom of the? Inning struck Out, 701 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 7: curio struck Out yelich and Got contrast to ground Out 702 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 7: weekly back to him a one two three shut out 703 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 7: bottom of the fourth inning to squash that. Momentum, Steve, 704 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 7: YEAH i wrote that down right. Here huge point for 705 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 7: The dodgers to stop the. Momentum that is called a 706 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 7: momentum shifting. Shove, okay he just flat out shoved, it 707 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 7: you know where you get this crowd back into. It 708 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 7: he comes out and just puts a big pot of 709 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 7: water on that, thing and that thing just. 710 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 8: Gone so that's what he. DOES i, mean that's that's 711 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 8: why he is so. Effective and the tantalizing thing about 712 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 8: it is he's stowing that change, up you, know probably 713 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 8: seventy eight eighty two miles an hour and they just 714 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 8: can't do a thing with. IT I, mean it looks 715 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 8: just like a fastball and it's very easy to. Throw 716 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 8: it's not hard on your arm at. All Fork balls 717 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 8: are usually hard on the flexor area for the pitcher 718 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 8: because it's the it's the retraction that comes back after 719 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 8: throwing and ball leaves your. Hand but with a change, 720 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 8: up it's, simple it's no pain at, all and he 721 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 8: could throw it all day. Long that's that's WHY i 722 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 8: say put him out there in the. Ninth let him 723 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:11,399 Speaker 8: throw the change up the whole. 724 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:15,239 Speaker 7: Time by the, Way Max munsey's quote unquote double playball 725 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,720 Speaker 7: that he hit into last night there in the fourth, 726 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,439 Speaker 7: inning that wild sequence for The brewers And dodgers would 727 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 7: have been a home run in nine, ballparks Including Dodgers, 728 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 7: stadium if they weren't playing In. Milwaukee, now of course 729 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,879 Speaker 7: they're playing In, milwaukee but you know the old what if, 730 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,760 Speaker 7: game if they've been playing at other, parks Including Dodgers, 731 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 7: stadium that's A Grand. Slam and The dodgers have a 732 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,359 Speaker 7: four to nothing lead For Blake. 733 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 8: Snell so it's just one of the times where they 734 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 8: hit the ball hard in where you need to. Hit 735 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 8: bets hit the, ball hit the cover off the ball 736 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 8: right at the side At harang at second, base and 737 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 8: you Know terrang was in good. POSITION a lot of 738 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 8: these guys play up the middle and a lot of 739 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 8: balls go up the. Middle but he hit the tar 740 00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 8: out of that, ball and you know what it's it's 741 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 8: a double.

Night so you' it's it cuts both. Ways 922 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,799 Speaker 8: it's easy to, say sitting here right, now to, say, 923 00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 8: WELL i would have brought him out there and we 924 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 8: wouldn't have had this. Issue how do you? Know you 925 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:08,759 Speaker 8: know it worked out and that's what. 926 00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 7: Counts, yeah if he had four five, walks maybe The 927 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 7: Blake snell that you know had traffic on the base 928 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 7: past a couple innings but was able to get out of, 929 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,439 Speaker 7: it those sort of starts that we've used to see 930 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 7: From Blake. Snell i'm all four going out there and 931 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,800 Speaker 7: giving the bullpen the ninth, inning but one hundred and 932 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,840 Speaker 7: three pitches the number looks, daunting especially in this day of. 933 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 7: Baseball AND i know it's not but one hundred and 934 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:32,879 Speaker 7: three Pitches game one of this. Series you're gonna want 935 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 7: him back to pitch a Possible game five At Dodger 936 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 7: stadium On. Saturday but it didn't feel like stressful one 937 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,439 Speaker 7: hundred and three. Pitches it didn't feel like an eight 938 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 7: innings that he was out there laboring because he. Wasn't 939 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 7: he had one guy on base the entire. Time he 940 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,799 Speaker 7: had a couple of, one, two three, Innings he had 941 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 7: some quick. Strikeouts he didn't labor out. There so for, that, 942 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 7: yeah the one hundred and three pitches looks like a. 943 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 7: Lot but If I'm Dave, roberts at least let him 944 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 7: go batter to batter the ninth. Inning at least let 945 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 7: him go out. There if the first guy reaches because 946 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 7: he walked because of, fatigue and it's now one hundred 947 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 7: and seven pitches and he just walked the guy on four, 948 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 7: Straight all, Right, sosaki you're in take, over close this 949 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 7: bad boy. Out but if he goes back there in 950 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 7: the ninth and Faces durbin and gets an, out, okay 951 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 7: then he Gets collins and he's all of a sudden 952 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 7: got two, outs let him finish it. OFF i, mean 953 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 7: at that point it's easy for me to, say but 954 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 7: what's the difference between one hundred and three and one 955 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:28,640 Speaker 7: hundred and thirteen pitches On? 956 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:29,080 Speaker 2: Blake not? 957 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 8: Much there's or one hundred and twenty one hundred and twenty. 958 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 8: Five it's not a big, deal you, know looking back 959 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 8: at history and what pitchers used to to throw it 960 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,919 Speaker 8: in a, game that's. NOTHING i, mean that's it's no big. 961 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,920 Speaker 8: Deal but we get an alarm bell that goes off 962 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 8: when we see a hundred pitches or one hundred. Innings 963 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 8: oh my. Gosh you know you better shut him down 964 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:51,800 Speaker 8: because they're gonna Know Blake's dell's been around for a. 965 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 8: While you, know he's he's been through the, injury he's 966 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:57,400 Speaker 8: had all that. STUFF i don't think a hundred another 967 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:00,239 Speaker 8: twenty pitches was gonna be you know that that harmful for? 968 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,279 Speaker 8: HIM i don't think at.

Milwaukee 991 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:04,760 Speaker 7: not that we want that to, happen nor it's gonna, 992 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 7: happen but you, know you got to have your bullpen 993 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 7: ready to, go especially after a guy's dealing last. Night 994 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 7: save those guys for, Today there's not there wrong with. 995 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:12,319 Speaker 4: That. 996 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 8: TIM i look at, THIS i look at the, matchup 997 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 8: and if The dodgers pitch to their, capability you, know 998 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 8: the starters go out there and strike one and there 999 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 8: they got stuff going and their stuff is electric like 1000 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 8: it like we always think it's going to, be and 1001 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 8: it has. Been if they if they, pitched you, know 1002 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 8: Like Blake snell did last, night that can beat. Anybody 1003 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:35,760 Speaker 8: but the matchup in the philosophy of This milwaukee team 1004 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:39,879 Speaker 8: against pitchers that are elite does not match up well 1005 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 8: at all For. Milwaukee you're gonna give you an, example is 1006 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 8: like WHEN i was facing a guy that had elite, 1007 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,399 Speaker 8: stuff like A Nolan Ryan, maya bats were off him 1008 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,840 Speaker 8: were two and three pitches most of the. Time BECAUSE 1009 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 8: i was gonna get myself something THAT i could hit 1010 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 8: and that was, it AND i WAS i was. Hacking 1011 00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 8: but you get these guys that want to go deep 1012 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 8: in the count off an elite, pitcher they are gonna 1013 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 8: wipe you. Out i'm telling you these guys Are that's 1014 00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,759 Speaker 8: a bad approach in my. Game you gotta go up 1015 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,480 Speaker 8: there and hack off of these. Guys you gotta give 1016 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 8: yourself two and three swings if you, miss because the 1017 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 8: stuff is so, good does? It does it make sense 1018 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 8: to go up there and give the guys one or 1019 00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:22,520 Speaker 8: two strikes because you want to go deep in the 1020 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,040 Speaker 8: Count well, good you're gonna get wiped. Out and that's 1021 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:25,600 Speaker 8: what happened to. 1022 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 3: Them ten punchouts last.
