<v Speaker 2>They win Game six, I said, dude, we're coming back

0:01:10.680 --> 0:01:13.880
<v Speaker 2>Game seven. We saw both games. Pretty cool, Boston.

0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean pretty cool to see both games.

0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:18.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, the history of it and you got a little

0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:19.200
<v Speaker 3>two for.

0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:20.800
<v Speaker 1>One when we were in the bleacher seats, which was

0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:21.080
<v Speaker 1>you know.

0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:24.080
<v Speaker 3>But were they devastated? What were they devastated?

0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:25.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh the whole Yeah it was bad.

0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was bad, and you were they were witnessing history.

0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:30.800
<v Speaker 2>But I mean, listen, thinking back on it though, like

0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:32.800
<v Speaker 2>how we got there and everything else. I know, we

0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:35.679
<v Speaker 2>just went through everything. And now Claudia is gonna kill

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:39.000
<v Speaker 2>me right now for all this. But it was pretty cool. Sorry,

0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:39.560
<v Speaker 2>that's cool.

0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:40.120
<v Speaker 3>It's worth it.

0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:43.040
<v Speaker 1>But it's only Boston's been the only one.

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:46.520
<v Speaker 4>This is this is what Scott said. Kids. There might

0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:49.520
<v Speaker 4>not be language, but you still got to go to class. Kids, Okay,

0:01:50.160 --> 0:01:55.000
<v Speaker 4>enjoy college Todd went to class. He almost got his degree.

0:01:56.120 --> 0:01:58.800
<v Speaker 1>It was at night. I didn't have any night classes

0:01:58.840 --> 0:01:59.640
<v Speaker 1>those two days.

0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:02.840
<v Speaker 3>You can't all tell your parents I'm going pro. It

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 3>doesn't matter because I have some unfortunate news. For those

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:08.840
<v Speaker 3>of you that think you're going pro, you have a shot,

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:12.840
<v Speaker 3>but it's unlikely. Most don't make it. I'm just being

0:02:12.880 --> 0:02:15.240
<v Speaker 3>real working Cratzy.

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:17.320
<v Speaker 1>Tell them keep working, baby, all.

0:02:17.360 --> 0:02:20.160
<v Speaker 3>Right, let's reset ready, down three zero and a best

0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:25.800
<v Speaker 3>of seven. Forty of forty one have taken the series.

0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:28.800
<v Speaker 3>If they've got the lead, how many sweeps out of

0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:31.560
<v Speaker 3>those forty one three zero opportunities?

0:02:32.440 --> 0:02:34.800
<v Speaker 1>Closest wins an arena club card?

0:02:34.800 --> 0:02:35.080
<v Speaker 2>Maybe?

0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:41.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I'm gonna say, man, say twenty.

0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:45.320
<v Speaker 3>Three thirty one out of forty one I win the

0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:50.400
<v Speaker 3>card closest to Are you surprised Kratz that the Dodgers

0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:52.880
<v Speaker 3>are going to take down the Brewers in four games?

0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:55.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm not surprised about that. I'm talking about history.

0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:59.519
<v Speaker 3>I'm tying it into what we're talking about right now.

0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:03.880
<v Speaker 3>But chances are show Heyo Tani's able to shut the

0:03:03.919 --> 0:03:07.120
<v Speaker 3>door on the series and they'll have a week's vacation.

0:03:08.360 --> 0:03:10.800
<v Speaker 4>This is not this is this couldn't be working out

0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:14.280
<v Speaker 4>better for the Dodgers. I mean, how many teams go

0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:16.160
<v Speaker 4>to the fourth game, and I mean think about our

0:03:16.200 --> 0:03:19.120
<v Speaker 4>game four last night. Max Shur's are like, I.

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:22.080
<v Speaker 5>Don't know, you know, maybe you get maybe you get

0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:23.359
<v Speaker 5>three innings out of them.

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:26.519
<v Speaker 4>That would be good. Four would be elite, Like you're

0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:31.120
<v Speaker 4>going in like doomsday kind of thinking. And the Dodgers

0:03:31.120 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 4>are like, well, actually, we're just gonna take show Hey

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:37.560
<v Speaker 4>to his pitch count because it's show heyo Tani. That's like,

0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:42.280
<v Speaker 4>that's how deep this Dodgers team is. And they look unstoppable.

0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:45.320
<v Speaker 1>Even winning a three to one game, you know what

0:03:45.320 --> 0:03:45.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean.

0:03:45.600 --> 0:03:50.400
<v Speaker 2>It just it just seems like, I don't know the Brewers,

0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:52.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, they had some they had a little bit

0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:53.680
<v Speaker 2>of life that they didn't do much. But at the

0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:56.520
<v Speaker 2>same time, it just seems like one good inning for

0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.760
<v Speaker 2>this Dodger team's putting everybody away, and everybody talks about

0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:02.800
<v Speaker 2>their pen and everything else. Guys are coming and they're

0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:05.080
<v Speaker 2>coming in what is it three games against the brewis

0:04:05.280 --> 0:04:07.520
<v Speaker 2>was four runs they've given up? I could be off

0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:12.960
<v Speaker 2>maybe right, right, Kratzy Yeah in times right, Yeah, four

0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:19.680
<v Speaker 2>runs in three games. It's great, crazy, absolutely crazy. You know,

0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:21.840
<v Speaker 2>I get I give credit. I give credit to them.

0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:24.839
<v Speaker 2>They're they're just and it's different players too, which is

0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:27.720
<v Speaker 2>even better. So you know, we talked about guys that

0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:29.599
<v Speaker 2>need to get hot. He saw a guy like Tommy

0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 2>Edmund struggling and all of a sudden getting a big knock.

0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:34.440
<v Speaker 2>So we can dive all the way into this. But

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:37.680
<v Speaker 2>it people thought that Dodgers were like, oh man, look

0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:39.160
<v Speaker 2>at the San Diego is going to catch them. And

0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:41.239
<v Speaker 2>during the season, you know how it went back and forth,

0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:44.960
<v Speaker 2>and I'm sitting there, I'm like, doesn't matter. They're winning

0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:47.599
<v Speaker 2>this by three, four, five games and they'll be just fine.

0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:50.040
<v Speaker 2>So it's fun to watch.

0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:53.120
<v Speaker 3>We got a comment from CCB in the chat, it's

0:04:53.120 --> 0:04:55.000
<v Speaker 3>got I think the difference with the Red Sox comeback

0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:57.560
<v Speaker 3>is they had Pedro and chilling. The Brewers don't have

0:04:57.640 --> 0:05:02.039
<v Speaker 3>that bingo. I completely agree. When you look at the

0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:05.040
<v Speaker 3>Brewers in this series, you're like, how did they get

0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:08.800
<v Speaker 3>this far? With all due respect, how did they get

0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:13.040
<v Speaker 3>this far? Smoking mirrors, pitching going on here and the

0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:14.240
<v Speaker 3>bullpen's good, but.

0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:16.960
<v Speaker 2>They crushed the division. I thought they were in their division.

0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:18.640
<v Speaker 2>They did pretty well. I mean, I don't know, man,

0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:22.400
<v Speaker 2>I like Cratzy take most of this. I mean, they

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:25.640
<v Speaker 2>have some ballplayers, nobody that's gonna blow you. I mean,

0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:29.520
<v Speaker 2>Cherio is really good ballplayer. You know, Nobody, all these

0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:31.960
<v Speaker 2>names that you have there, they're not going to be like, Wow,

0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:34.360
<v Speaker 2>yeah this this guy is gonna take over games. Like, yeah,

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:37.840
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna do well. But at the same token, they're

0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:40.520
<v Speaker 2>just they're an okay ball club. Let's just be honest.

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:42.839
<v Speaker 2>They're okay against when it comes to a team like

0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:45.280
<v Speaker 2>the Dodgers. Okay, So don't take words out of them

0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:47.920
<v Speaker 2>when it plays teams like a Dodgers or you know,

0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:51.280
<v Speaker 2>a Toronto or a Seattle team like the best of

0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:51.640
<v Speaker 2>the best.

0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:52.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they're just okay.

0:05:54.240 --> 0:05:57.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm just gonna read some Twitter posts that are now

0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:01.680
<v Speaker 4>commenting on what you just said. Todd okay hates the Brewers.

0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:07.840
<v Speaker 4>What about what about our what about our starting rotation?

0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:10.200
<v Speaker 4>What about the fact that we won ninety seven games?

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:15.400
<v Speaker 4>What about the fact that in this series Bryce terrang

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:19.760
<v Speaker 4>Christian Yelich two of their key lefties in their lineup,

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:23.320
<v Speaker 4>and they've been facing besides Blake SNeW, they're gonna have

0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:26.840
<v Speaker 4>faced three right handed starters like guys that you're like, Okay,

0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:30.280
<v Speaker 4>these guys got to step up. Haven't been stepping up.

0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:35.719
<v Speaker 4>King Vaughan has not been that guy, Like, they haven't

0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:39.520
<v Speaker 4>stepped up offensively. But I'll kind of double down on

0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:41.800
<v Speaker 4>what I said last night postgame, because I think a

0:06:41.800 --> 0:06:44.960
<v Speaker 4>lot of people on Twitter mistook what I said saying that, oh,

0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 4>it's because of the opener that they're losing, and they've

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.720
<v Speaker 4>scored one run in two games and two runs in

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:54.120
<v Speaker 4>another game, Like no, no, no, no, that's not why I'm

0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:56.960
<v Speaker 4>saying they're losing. The pitchers have done a great job

0:06:57.000 --> 0:06:59.640
<v Speaker 4>for them for the most part. They've done a great

0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:03.520
<v Speaker 4>job overall. But the fact that you go into a

0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:06.080
<v Speaker 4>playoff series and you go, Okay, we're gonna look at

0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 4>our leaders. We're gonna look at our manager, We're gonna

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:10.560
<v Speaker 4>look at our front office. We're gonna look at our coaches.

0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:14.880
<v Speaker 4>We're gonna even look at our superstars. Who looks nervous. Well,

0:07:14.960 --> 0:07:17.520
<v Speaker 4>Christian Yellis doesn't look nervous. I know he's not doing well.

0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:21.080
<v Speaker 4>Bryce Terrang doesn't look nervous. Okay, so now we're gonna

0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:25.000
<v Speaker 4>look at our front office and manager. Oh well, they

0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:27.160
<v Speaker 4>must not think our starters are good enough, so we

0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:34.080
<v Speaker 4>gotta we're like concocting a new way of getting these outs.

0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:36.600
<v Speaker 4>I guess there's something we gotta be nervous about, because

0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:38.680
<v Speaker 4>there's gotta be something. You're supposed to play all these

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:41.640
<v Speaker 4>games like it's any other game. And I'm not saying

0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:45.440
<v Speaker 4>the Openers have lost them the game. I'm saying the

0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:49.640
<v Speaker 4>idea that, well, we gotta play this differently. We gotta

0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:54.160
<v Speaker 4>play these games differently. By starting an opener is forward

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:57.120
<v Speaker 4>facing for all the players to see like there must

0:07:57.120 --> 0:08:01.160
<v Speaker 4>be something different instead of you know what, We're just

0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:02.960
<v Speaker 4>gonna go out and play our game. Glass and now

0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:05.120
<v Speaker 4>is gonna walk us. We're gonna take our walks, We're

0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:07.600
<v Speaker 4>gonna steal bases, We're gonna get base hits up the middle.

0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:11.240
<v Speaker 4>We're gonna do things that we've done all year because

0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:15.120
<v Speaker 4>our entire environment looks exactly the same. Besides the adrenaline

0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:17.160
<v Speaker 4>that I'm feeling, and that's why I said, the Openers

0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:21.240
<v Speaker 4>just maybe put some little psyche in a really good

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 4>team's head. I disagree with Todd. I don't think they're

0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:25.560
<v Speaker 4>just okay. I think they're a really good team. You

0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:28.440
<v Speaker 4>don't win ninety seven games in the big leagues without

0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:30.080

0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:37.560
<v Speaker 3>There were times when I talked about this last night,

0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:39.480
<v Speaker 3>they had too many starters and they trade away a

0:09:39.520 --> 0:09:41.840
<v Speaker 3>guy who's a four or five starter because they don't

0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:44.040
<v Speaker 3>have room for him in the rotation. They're not in

0:09:44.120 --> 0:09:46.600
<v Speaker 3>that spot right now, so that's part of it. By

0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:49.280
<v Speaker 3>the way, that was an epic clapback because there were

0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:51.640
<v Speaker 3>a lot of people like, Oh, that's all they're losing.

0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:55.440
<v Speaker 3>You just can't hit yet, No kidding, we're aware of that.

0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:57.520
<v Speaker 3>We did a thirty five minute post game show last night.

0:09:57.520 --> 0:09:58.720
<v Speaker 3>Do you want us to just go on the show

0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:02.200
<v Speaker 3>and say, well, welcome to FT Live postgame brewers can't

0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:06.080
<v Speaker 3>hit and we'll see you tomorrow. Give you something else

0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:09.080
<v Speaker 3>you want the player perspective. If Kratz is on a

0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:10.800
<v Speaker 3>team right now and they're like, hey, you know what

0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:13.680
<v Speaker 3>we did in the regular season, wipe that. We're not

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:15.959
<v Speaker 3>as good as this team, so we're gonna do totally

0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:18.720
<v Speaker 3>different things, how do you think that affects the confidence

0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:20.319
<v Speaker 3>of the current ball club. It makes sense.

0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:24.240
<v Speaker 4>Somebody asked me. Somebody asked me for the first playoff game,

0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:25.880
<v Speaker 4>I was going to start in because I played in

0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:29.160
<v Speaker 4>a game. I came in. I didn't start. But when

0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:31.720
<v Speaker 4>I started the first playoff game, they go, are you nervous?

0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:35.320
<v Speaker 4>And I was like nervous for what they were like

0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:37.840
<v Speaker 4>for the game, like are you nervous? I was like,

0:10:37.880 --> 0:10:41.000
<v Speaker 4>I got a lot of adrenaline going yes. But they said,

0:10:41.360 --> 0:10:43.200
<v Speaker 4>they said, well, aren't you nervous once you get out there?

0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:45.560
<v Speaker 4>I was like, once I get out there, that's the

0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.080
<v Speaker 4>calm time. If you asked me to go play left

0:10:48.080 --> 0:10:52.040
<v Speaker 4>field in the first game of the playoffs, this guy

0:10:52.040 --> 0:10:56.000
<v Speaker 4>would be nervous. I would definitely be nervous. Essentially, you're

0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:57.199
<v Speaker 4>trying to take away.

0:10:57.200 --> 0:11:02.520
<v Speaker 6>Any kind of nerves or anything awkward or different from

0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:04.839
<v Speaker 6>that's different from the regular season because you've done it

0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:07.720
<v Speaker 6>one hundred and sixty two times, you've done your practice,

0:11:07.760 --> 0:11:09.640
<v Speaker 6>you take ground balls every single day.

0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:12.400
<v Speaker 4>Now you add a little wrinkle into it. Maybe that

0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:15.360
<v Speaker 4>affects some of these guys that are like control the

0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 4>zone really well hitting and now they're going out of

0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:22.240
<v Speaker 4>the zone. And for people who say askcrew you, they

0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:24.920
<v Speaker 4>just stink. I'm like, okay, well, you're probably not listening.

0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:28.120
<v Speaker 4>For people who want to hear the players perspective, it

0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:31.680
<v Speaker 4>has to be an environment where you're able to just

0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:35.959
<v Speaker 4>harness that adrenaline and then take it to the promised Land.

0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:38.720
<v Speaker 4>Because they got all the way here, they should do

0:11:38.760 --> 0:11:40.120
<v Speaker 4>everything exactly the same.

0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:44.160
<v Speaker 3>In my opinion, Let me bring up one other component.

0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:48.040
<v Speaker 3>I agree with everything you said. I think one of

0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:50.920
<v Speaker 3>the most underrated tweets during the whole postseason that got

0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:54.760
<v Speaker 3>barely any love is from Mark Kurigg, who writes for

0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:57.520
<v Speaker 3>The Athletic for years and is an editor there now.

0:11:57.640 --> 0:12:00.240
<v Speaker 3>He said, man, did every player in this postseason not

0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:05.600
<v Speaker 3>get a scholarship offers? Slash scouted, slash drafted? And this

0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:07.760
<v Speaker 3>wasn't a knock on Joe Davis. He was more knocking

0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:10.480
<v Speaker 3>like the baseball storylines. He said. Every time Joe Davis

0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 3>starts reading a player's bio, it begins with he went

0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:16.400
<v Speaker 3>to three Zephyr Hills Junior College in South Dakota and

0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:18.480
<v Speaker 3>didn't get any looks until he started on the local

0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:22.080
<v Speaker 3>poultry factory team. Here comes the two to one. It's

0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 3>so good. It's so good, right it does? You get

0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:27.440
<v Speaker 3>some of that with the Brewers, You get some of

0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:30.640
<v Speaker 3>that with the Blue Jays, of course, which is what

0:12:30.720 --> 0:12:33.199
<v Speaker 3>they're covering right now on the Toronto side. I guess

0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:35.520
<v Speaker 3>there's a little withit that seattle like Leo Revas.

0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:35.839
<v Speaker 1>Whatever.

0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:39.120
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, the point I'm bringing up here is there are

0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:43.320
<v Speaker 3>neglected players on the evil Empire, which is the Dodgers. Now,

0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:47.160
<v Speaker 3>by the way, the Dodgers draft and develop, well, they're

0:12:47.200 --> 0:12:49.640
<v Speaker 3>able to find, scrap keep guys. They do all that, right,

0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:53.920
<v Speaker 3>But what they also do is take legendary franchise players

0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:58.040
<v Speaker 3>and say, hey, the team that had you first easily

0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:00.640
<v Speaker 3>could have kept you, and decided not to you. They

0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:04.280
<v Speaker 3>are stupid. Welcome to the Dodgers. High Mookie Betts. The

0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:06.760
<v Speaker 3>Red Sox easily could have kept you. You said it

0:13:06.760 --> 0:13:10.840
<v Speaker 3>yourself on this show. They kept shorting you. Hi, Freddy Freeman.

0:13:11.120 --> 0:13:14.319
<v Speaker 3>The amount that you guys had a difference with Atlanta

0:13:14.440 --> 0:13:17.719
<v Speaker 3>versus Freddy and his representation is about how much they

0:13:17.760 --> 0:13:20.840
<v Speaker 3>make in one or two home games during the regular season. Right,

0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 3>you got any more you'd like to add on for

0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:24.520
<v Speaker 3>ut Crafts, I just wanted to start with the foundation.

0:13:25.600 --> 0:13:28.960
<v Speaker 4>Oh, Tyler Glass now could have stayed where he was

0:13:29.040 --> 0:13:31.280
<v Speaker 4>because he wasn't able to because of his health issues.

0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:34.320
<v Speaker 4>He wasn't able to command a massive contract, so he

0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:38.280
<v Speaker 4>could have stayed with the race. Blake Snell, we all

0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:41.800
<v Speaker 4>know what his drama happened. He didn't have to go like,

0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:44.240
<v Speaker 4>what do you get one hundred and seventy million? And

0:13:44.240 --> 0:13:45.280
<v Speaker 4>I think it was deferred, so.

0:13:47.320 --> 0:13:51.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and he can afford that contract. And most teams

0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:54.800
<v Speaker 3>the off season before said, and this was him coming

0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:57.320
<v Speaker 3>off a brilliant year, right, they were like, nah, not

0:13:57.440 --> 0:13:57.880
<v Speaker 3>worth it.

0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:01.280
<v Speaker 4>Well that he was coming off a slow start because

0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:05.080
<v Speaker 4>he missed spring training and then he ended up figuring

0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:07.920
<v Speaker 4>it out. But the year before is when he came

0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:12.560
<v Speaker 4>off of the brilliant year and everybody said, I'm nervous. Okay,

0:14:12.600 --> 0:14:14.920
<v Speaker 4>well you know who's not nervous. The team is sitting

0:14:14.920 --> 0:14:16.640
<v Speaker 4>three to zero right now, and people are gonna complain

0:14:16.720 --> 0:14:18.720
<v Speaker 4>it's all about the money, all about the salary cap,

0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 4>all that stuff. Every one of these players was available,

0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:25.640
<v Speaker 4>They were available to be had. Max Munsey was taken

0:14:25.720 --> 0:14:32.760
<v Speaker 4>years ago off the DFA scrap heap. It's about believing

0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:34.960
<v Speaker 4>in the players that you have, believing in the system

0:14:34.960 --> 0:14:37.920
<v Speaker 4>that you have. And now they've built this thing that

0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:40.960
<v Speaker 4>they have in LA that guys want to come to.

0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:43.240
<v Speaker 4>So now you know what sucks for the rest of

0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:47.280
<v Speaker 4>baseball is you're gonna have to pay me more to

0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:50.040
<v Speaker 4>go somewhere else. If the Dodgers offered me, to say money,

0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:51.960
<v Speaker 4>why would I not want to go play for the Dodgers?

0:14:52.120 --> 0:14:53.480
<v Speaker 4>Why would I not want to listen to Key k

0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:57.120
<v Speaker 4>Hernandez say, I have offers from other teams, but I

0:14:57.160 --> 0:14:58.960
<v Speaker 4>told my agent, really, the only place I want to

0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:00.359
<v Speaker 4>go is la.

0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:05.560
<v Speaker 3>Very true Mike drop Krafts was on fire this segment. Yeah,

0:15:06.200 --> 0:15:10.160
<v Speaker 3>if you agree, please comment as you're watching. Yeah, and

0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:12.560
<v Speaker 3>coming up next we'll get a heat check on Kevin Pollar,

0:15:12.600 --> 0:15:15.240
<v Speaker 3>who's been on fire talking about what's going to happen

0:15:15.280 --> 0:15:18.960
<v Speaker 3>in the alcs. But first, arenaclub dot com slash foul.

0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 3>Use the code foul for twenty percent off your first

0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:24.040
<v Speaker 3>slab pack or card purchase. We talk about them all

0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:27.960
<v Speaker 3>season long. If you're into buying, selling, trading cards, ripping packs,

0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:30.520
<v Speaker 3>this is the spot to do it. Hey, we're back

0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:34.000
<v Speaker 3>Jackson Cheerio. I wanted to ask you guys about him.

0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:36.840
<v Speaker 3>Have you ever seen that situation pop up on the broadcast?

0:15:36.880 --> 0:15:39.440
<v Speaker 3>They were like, oh, he's cramping and we were talking

0:15:39.760 --> 0:15:42.040
<v Speaker 3>before our postgame show like, is that a cramp that

0:15:42.120 --> 0:15:44.200
<v Speaker 3>looks bad? And then he hops off and he said, yeah,

0:15:44.240 --> 0:15:47.680
<v Speaker 3>it actually was a cramp and he's back in most

0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:49.720
<v Speaker 3>likely for the next game. We don't have official word,

0:15:49.760 --> 0:15:53.480
<v Speaker 3>but most likely playing. Have you ever seen that the

0:15:53.520 --> 0:15:54.040
<v Speaker 3>hop off?

0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:59.600
<v Speaker 2>I've never seen it now, but there's been crazier things.

0:16:00.920 --> 0:16:02.560
<v Speaker 3>Kratz has a conspiracy theory.

0:16:02.480 --> 0:16:05.600
<v Speaker 2>Can't I can't see it. No, but yeah, it's something different.

0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:09.080
<v Speaker 2>You've never seen him. I mean, get some electric likes

0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:11.120
<v Speaker 2>inion and keep going. I think I think you got

0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:12.240
<v Speaker 2>to find a way to fight through that.

0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:14.760
<v Speaker 3>If it was tour it doll, what are they giving

0:16:14.760 --> 0:16:16.680
<v Speaker 3>them these days? What do they pop them with? What

0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:17.360
<v Speaker 3>do you got crats?

0:16:18.320 --> 0:16:20.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I don't think he don't need no tour do

0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:24.480
<v Speaker 4>doll for h It's an NFL game. It's just the playoffs.

0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:29.120
<v Speaker 4>Nobody's really trying in the playoffs. Bro, Like, oh, I'm surprised.

0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:33.480
<v Speaker 4>I'm surprised he came out. But think about the fact

0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:37.640
<v Speaker 4>that if he's never cramped up before, maybe he thought

0:16:37.640 --> 0:16:40.320
<v Speaker 4>this was the worst thing in the world. Think about, like,

0:16:40.440 --> 0:16:43.480
<v Speaker 4>I've never seen anybody cramp up and just be like, hmm,

0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:46.880
<v Speaker 4>that kind of feels bad. I'm still cramping right now. No,

0:16:47.000 --> 0:16:53.040
<v Speaker 4>Everyone's like, ah, what the kid, Oh it's terrible. Yeah,

0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:59.680
<v Speaker 4>so coming out of the game, I don't know that'll

0:16:59.720 --> 0:17:00.680
<v Speaker 4>be true. Real question.

0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:05.479
<v Speaker 3>Okay, don't you feel like post series it's gonna come

0:17:05.520 --> 0:17:08.760
<v Speaker 3>out like, oh, he was in much worse shape than

0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:10.040
<v Speaker 3>could you think?

0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:10.840
<v Speaker 1>Definitely could.

0:17:11.400 --> 0:17:14.520
<v Speaker 3>We said cramp, But by cramp we meant he reaggravated

0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:16.960
<v Speaker 3>the pull or whatever. No, you don't think so crasps.

0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:18.920
<v Speaker 3>I don't think it was just amp. Then it went away.

0:17:19.920 --> 0:17:21.800
<v Speaker 4>Not on your back leg. Oh, it clearly didn't go away.

0:17:21.840 --> 0:17:24.000
<v Speaker 5>I mean he was hopping, hopping off the field, but

0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:25.720
<v Speaker 5>he couldn't bend his leg.

0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:27.920
<v Speaker 4>That's why I thought. In the postgame show, I thought

0:17:27.960 --> 0:17:29.800
<v Speaker 4>it was a cramp, And you guys are like, no way,

0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:35.200
<v Speaker 4>and I'm like, okay, well whatever. But to me, I think, yeah,

0:17:36.000 --> 0:17:38.040
<v Speaker 4>you want to stay. You gotta want to stay in

0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:41.240
<v Speaker 4>that game any way possible. And the right leg. I've

0:17:41.240 --> 0:17:43.240
<v Speaker 4>seen the right I've seen guys pull their hamstring on

0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:47.480
<v Speaker 4>their front leg hitting, never on their back leg. I've

0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:50.680
<v Speaker 4>gotten a cramp swinging on my back leg before I've

0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:55.280
<v Speaker 4>I've done it hot summer game, right leg right hand

0:17:55.320 --> 0:17:58.040
<v Speaker 4>me cramps up. You're like, oh, oh, don't like that.

0:17:58.320 --> 0:17:59.159
<v Speaker 4>Something bit me.

0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:06.000
<v Speaker 3>He sizzling today. They need chero by the way, they're

0:18:06.040 --> 0:18:06.760
<v Speaker 3>best bat.

<v Speaker 3>But for now, we get ten minutes to talk this out.

0:19:44.400 --> 0:19:46.000
<v Speaker 3>And it's not just Q and A. Let's just kick

0:19:46.040 --> 0:19:49.000
<v Speaker 3>it around, okay, But KP. I want to start here

0:19:49.040 --> 0:19:51.359
<v Speaker 3>because I remember a two oh series lead for the

0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:54.960
<v Speaker 3>Seattle Mariners and you said things are about to get funky.

0:19:55.240 --> 0:19:58.320
<v Speaker 3>Good call. Blue Jays won the next two. How does

0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:00.800
<v Speaker 3>it get funky from here as the best of three?

0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:02.760
<v Speaker 7>It doesn't.

0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:07.480
<v Speaker 8>It doesn't get funky anymore. I think the series is over.

0:20:07.960 --> 0:20:10.359
<v Speaker 8>Hey Todd, it's great to see you. But I was

0:20:10.440 --> 0:20:12.959
<v Speaker 8>really looking forward to seeing a j today too, because

0:20:13.040 --> 0:20:15.000
<v Speaker 8>he gave me great advice when I get into this

0:20:15.119 --> 0:20:18.840
<v Speaker 8>media uh business, that you gotta be your authentic self.

0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:21.040
<v Speaker 8>You gotta tell the truth. Some people are not gonna

0:20:21.119 --> 0:20:24.080
<v Speaker 8>like what you said. And I took his advice and

0:20:24.200 --> 0:20:27.040
<v Speaker 8>I said what I said, and I got buried by

0:20:27.040 --> 0:20:29.480
<v Speaker 8>a lot of Seattle fans call me a homer blah

0:20:29.480 --> 0:20:31.960
<v Speaker 8>blah blah, But that was my honest opinion. That's how

0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:35.200
<v Speaker 8>I really felt, and and it's coming true right now.

0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:38.280
<v Speaker 8>But to answer your question, I think the funkiness is gone.

0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:39.760
<v Speaker 8>I think it's over.

0:20:41.240 --> 0:20:45.760
<v Speaker 4>Finished. Wow, I'm changing my lock for the for after

0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:46.160
<v Speaker 4>the game.

0:20:46.560 --> 0:20:51.640
<v Speaker 3>K K, Well, give us more crats like we did

0:20:51.640 --> 0:20:54.639
<v Speaker 3>a show. Yeah, Okape, what do you think? Why do

0:20:54.720 --> 0:20:55.159
<v Speaker 3>you say that?

0:20:56.119 --> 0:20:56.359
<v Speaker 4>Well?

0:20:56.520 --> 0:20:59.880
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I mean I'm just watching this offense and it's

0:20:59.880 --> 0:21:02.280
<v Speaker 8>just relentless. It's one through nine, and yeah, we could

0:21:02.280 --> 0:21:05.199
<v Speaker 8>talk about Vladie what he's doing, but it's every single

0:21:05.200 --> 0:21:08.600
<v Speaker 8>person every night contributing their quality of their at bats.

0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:10.280
<v Speaker 7>I've never seen anything like it.

0:21:10.560 --> 0:21:10.720
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:13.000
<v Speaker 8>I even went back and watched old playoff games that

0:21:13.080 --> 0:21:14.600
<v Speaker 8>I was a part of and I played in, and

0:21:14.680 --> 0:21:16.680
<v Speaker 8>I'm like, there was holes in those lineups.

0:21:16.720 --> 0:21:16.879
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:21:16.920 --> 0:21:17.920
<v Speaker 7>I was one of those holes.

0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:19.879
<v Speaker 8>I could have my day where I could go out

0:21:19.880 --> 0:21:21.560
<v Speaker 8>and get my couple hits, but the quality of my

0:21:21.680 --> 0:21:24.199
<v Speaker 8>bats throughout the po layoffs, we're just so up and

0:21:24.280 --> 0:21:27.880
<v Speaker 8>down one through nine, no matter who they're putting in there,

0:21:28.040 --> 0:21:31.280
<v Speaker 8>whatever button Schneider puts in, Like last night, he decides,

0:21:31.359 --> 0:21:32.960
<v Speaker 8>you know what, santan Terra's.

0:21:32.680 --> 0:21:33.320
<v Speaker 7>Back's not good.

0:21:33.320 --> 0:21:35.520
<v Speaker 8>We're gonna replace him on the roster. Hey, let's play

0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:37.040
<v Speaker 8>a guy in right field who hasn't been out there

0:21:37.080 --> 0:21:40.280
<v Speaker 8>in a month, goes out there, makes three amazing defensive plays,

0:21:40.320 --> 0:21:43.639
<v Speaker 8>hits an opposite field RBI ikf is insured in the

0:21:43.640 --> 0:21:46.320
<v Speaker 8>lineup at second base, hasn't played at all this series

0:21:47.040 --> 0:21:49.520
<v Speaker 8>gets the rally started with a double down loll field line,

0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:54.480
<v Speaker 8>How's another hit, How's a sacrifice butt? It's just relentless.

0:21:54.520 --> 0:21:56.800
<v Speaker 8>And then when you watch the Seattle offense, it's just

0:21:57.440 --> 0:21:59.600
<v Speaker 8>it kind of feels like what I had talked about

0:21:59.640 --> 0:22:02.080
<v Speaker 8>with the phill It looks like they have a ton

0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:04.760
<v Speaker 8>of talent in their lineup, and it's like each one

0:22:04.760 --> 0:22:06.720
<v Speaker 8>of you just go out and do whatever you think

0:22:06.800 --> 0:22:09.320
<v Speaker 8>is best to try to slug where it looks like

0:22:09.320 --> 0:22:11.760
<v Speaker 8>the Blue Jays lineup that doesn't look I know for

0:22:11.760 --> 0:22:13.399
<v Speaker 8>a fact because I've talked to him. They have a

0:22:13.520 --> 0:22:16.080
<v Speaker 8>very collective approach on how they want to attack a

0:22:16.080 --> 0:22:19.720
<v Speaker 8>picture on any given day. What you saw they did

0:22:19.760 --> 0:22:23.600
<v Speaker 8>two nights ago. They had eighteen hits, and all eighteen

0:22:23.640 --> 0:22:25.200
<v Speaker 8>of them came within the first three pitchers.

0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:25.399
<v Speaker 1>To day.

0:22:25.400 --> 0:22:27.600
<v Speaker 8>I bat you think that was on accident. You think

0:22:27.640 --> 0:22:30.480
<v Speaker 8>all guys just decided, hey, we're gonna swing early. No,

0:22:30.640 --> 0:22:32.320
<v Speaker 8>that was their collective plan. They knew they had a

0:22:32.320 --> 0:22:34.560
<v Speaker 8>strike thrower on the mound that had really good stuff,

0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:35.960
<v Speaker 8>and they said, let's get them early.

0:22:37.200 --> 0:22:41.200
<v Speaker 4>So they've been unafraid of changing their approach because that's

0:22:41.240 --> 0:22:44.399
<v Speaker 4>why they lost Game one really against the guy that

0:22:44.440 --> 0:22:47.360
<v Speaker 4>they're facing tonight, in the fact that they were like, hey,

0:22:47.400 --> 0:22:50.199
<v Speaker 4>you know what to me, they had two choices. They

0:22:50.240 --> 0:22:53.159
<v Speaker 4>could go, Bryce Miller is gased, this whole team is gassed.

0:22:53.520 --> 0:22:55.560
<v Speaker 4>We're just gonna wear them down and kind of get

0:22:55.600 --> 0:22:57.800
<v Speaker 4>away from our approach, and they said, no, screw it,

0:22:58.200 --> 0:23:01.959
<v Speaker 4>we're gonna stay We're gonna stay aggressive. Are they able

0:23:02.000 --> 0:23:05.600
<v Speaker 4>to or do they need to veer from that approach

0:23:05.640 --> 0:23:06.440
<v Speaker 4>at all as a team.

0:23:07.960 --> 0:23:10.440
<v Speaker 8>I mean, that's a tough question to answer because I mean,

0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:13.239
<v Speaker 8>obviously what they did all year has got them to

0:23:13.320 --> 0:23:17.080
<v Speaker 8>this point. But I think the Blue Jays how they

0:23:17.080 --> 0:23:21.320
<v Speaker 8>have attacked these pitchers, and I know Seattle their starting

0:23:21.320 --> 0:23:23.800
<v Speaker 8>staff is elite, and what makes them e lead is

0:23:23.840 --> 0:23:26.760
<v Speaker 8>they probably throw strike one more than most teams do

0:23:26.880 --> 0:23:29.960
<v Speaker 8>and they attack the zone. But I at this point,

0:23:30.000 --> 0:23:32.359
<v Speaker 8>you've got to try something a little bit different. Maybe

0:23:32.400 --> 0:23:35.280
<v Speaker 8>not Bryce Miller because he did have some success facing

0:23:35.320 --> 0:23:39.760
<v Speaker 8>them in game one, but maybe you've got to try

0:23:39.800 --> 0:23:43.119
<v Speaker 8>to pitch a little bit unconventional. Maybe try to you know,

0:23:43.840 --> 0:23:46.960
<v Speaker 8>pitch backwards. Maybe maybe try to get some chase early

0:23:47.000 --> 0:23:49.800
<v Speaker 8>in the account. Because if they just continue to attack

0:23:49.840 --> 0:23:53.120
<v Speaker 8>the zone, these Blue Jay hitters are ready to go.

0:23:53.720 --> 0:23:55.719
<v Speaker 7>The only thing they've changed.

0:23:55.240 --> 0:23:57.280
<v Speaker 8>It from games one and two to Game three is

0:23:57.359 --> 0:23:59.480
<v Speaker 8>John Schneider came out and said he wanted his team

0:23:59.520 --> 0:24:02.959
<v Speaker 8>to have less jabs and more uppercuts, and you know,

0:24:03.320 --> 0:24:05.480
<v Speaker 8>kind of reading between the lines as a player, that

0:24:05.600 --> 0:24:08.440
<v Speaker 8>just means, you know, take a little bit more aggressive swings,

0:24:08.440 --> 0:24:10.240
<v Speaker 8>don't just try to put the ball in play, hunt

0:24:10.280 --> 0:24:12.320
<v Speaker 8>your zone, and when you get that pitch, don't be

0:24:12.359 --> 0:24:13.439
<v Speaker 8>afraid to try to drive it.

0:24:14.680 --> 0:24:17.280
<v Speaker 2>I want to talk a little bit about the mad Man,

0:24:17.800 --> 0:24:18.600
<v Speaker 2>Max Schuser.

0:24:18.640 --> 0:24:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean this guy, mad Max.

0:24:20.240 --> 0:24:23.359
<v Speaker 2>He's absolutely filthy, coming in giving five really good innings

0:24:23.400 --> 0:24:28.400
<v Speaker 2>of one run baseball, his energy, his emotion, his never

0:24:28.520 --> 0:24:30.960
<v Speaker 2>ending fear to let you know how he really feels,

0:24:31.400 --> 0:24:33.200
<v Speaker 2>and telling Schnyder, I want to go out there and

0:24:33.240 --> 0:24:34.840
<v Speaker 2>I want to keep going here. Talk a little bit

0:24:34.840 --> 0:24:37.359
<v Speaker 2>about his prowess and what he brings and mean to

0:24:37.440 --> 0:24:38.480
<v Speaker 2>this team.

0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:40.800
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, you know, I was in the press room after

0:24:40.920 --> 0:24:43.440
<v Speaker 8>and I couldn't man up and ask him a question,

0:24:43.520 --> 0:24:45.800
<v Speaker 8>but I had one prepared. I wanted to ask him,

0:24:46.800 --> 0:24:49.720
<v Speaker 8>do you prefer to be referred to as a maniac,

0:24:49.720 --> 0:24:53.840
<v Speaker 8>a lunatic or a psychopath? But I didn't have the

0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:54.919
<v Speaker 8>courage to do it.

0:24:55.000 --> 0:24:56.520
<v Speaker 7>But this guy's.

0:24:56.320 --> 0:25:00.280
<v Speaker 8>Energy is unlike anything that I've ever seen out of

0:25:00.320 --> 0:25:00.800
<v Speaker 8>a pitcher.

0:25:01.000 --> 0:25:01.760
<v Speaker 7>Starting pitcher.

0:25:02.040 --> 0:25:04.800
<v Speaker 8>Normally, you'll get that kind of high energy, kind of

0:25:05.200 --> 0:25:08.560
<v Speaker 8>psychotic sort of energy out of a bullpen arm because

0:25:08.560 --> 0:25:10.640
<v Speaker 8>it's such a sprint. You get in the mound, maybe

0:25:10.680 --> 0:25:13.040
<v Speaker 8>you got to get one, two or three outs. You're

0:25:13.080 --> 0:25:15.440
<v Speaker 8>emptying the gas tank from you know, the first pitch

0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:17.600
<v Speaker 8>to the last one you throw. You could come off

0:25:17.680 --> 0:25:21.720
<v Speaker 8>and kind of exhale and show your emotion because you

0:25:21.760 --> 0:25:23.800
<v Speaker 8>know you're not going back out there. This guy pitches

0:25:23.880 --> 0:25:27.840
<v Speaker 8>like a high end reliever. You know, just even watching

0:25:27.920 --> 0:25:30.360
<v Speaker 8>him throwing the bullpen, this guy's calling his own game

0:25:30.400 --> 0:25:32.879
<v Speaker 8>out there. He's calling balls and strikes, he's punching out

0:25:32.920 --> 0:25:36.080
<v Speaker 8>invisible hitters. He's coming into the dugout, He's throwing coaches

0:25:36.080 --> 0:25:40.680
<v Speaker 8>out of the way. It's just his personality. I mean,

0:25:40.680 --> 0:25:43.280
<v Speaker 8>the closest thing that I've ever kind of played with

0:25:43.400 --> 0:25:46.040
<v Speaker 8>is someone like Josh Donaldson, which you played with as well.

0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:49.000
<v Speaker 8>Is when you have someone that is that intense and

0:25:49.040 --> 0:25:52.960
<v Speaker 8>that crazy, and I was a very kind of calm, cool,

0:25:52.960 --> 0:25:56.120
<v Speaker 8>collective type of player. You have no doubt to kind

0:25:56.119 --> 0:25:58.320
<v Speaker 8>of raise your emotions, You have no doubt. You have

0:25:58.359 --> 0:26:00.639
<v Speaker 8>no choice but to kind of rise to the moment.

0:26:00.720 --> 0:26:02.679
<v Speaker 8>And what he was able to do at forty one

0:26:02.760 --> 0:26:05.080
<v Speaker 8>years old not touching a mound, not just a big

0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:07.320
<v Speaker 8>league mound, but he didn't even pitch in a rehab

0:26:07.359 --> 0:26:10.879
<v Speaker 8>game in the minor leagues for three weeks to go

0:26:10.920 --> 0:26:12.120
<v Speaker 8>out there at age forty one.

0:26:13.000 --> 0:26:14.639
<v Speaker 7>I think we found out during the game last night.

0:26:14.680 --> 0:26:16.720
<v Speaker 8>It was as he threw his hardest pitches in over

0:26:16.800 --> 0:26:21.119
<v Speaker 8>three years. Talk about a first bout Hall of Famer,

0:26:21.840 --> 0:26:24.320
<v Speaker 8>stepping up and answering the bell when his team needed it.

0:26:24.320 --> 0:26:25.760
<v Speaker 8>It was it was fun to watch.

0:26:26.640 --> 0:26:29.879
<v Speaker 5>What's the feeling in Seattle, not with the teams, but

0:26:30.040 --> 0:26:32.440
<v Speaker 5>kind of in the stadium, is it Obviously when the

0:26:32.480 --> 0:26:33.639
<v Speaker 5>team's losing, everyone's like.

0:26:33.680 --> 0:26:36.959
<v Speaker 4>Oh, I can't believe we're losing. This is the worst.

0:26:37.000 --> 0:26:42.560
<v Speaker 4>But is there like that, like same popping, popping, jumping

0:26:42.600 --> 0:26:45.520
<v Speaker 4>around when everybody was getting getting on you for saying,

0:26:46.280 --> 0:26:48.120
<v Speaker 4>you know, the Jay's are going to take this back

0:26:48.160 --> 0:26:50.240
<v Speaker 4>to Toronto. Are they still as confident?

0:26:51.440 --> 0:26:54.280
<v Speaker 7>No, they are not. I will tell you.

0:26:54.640 --> 0:26:56.320
<v Speaker 8>I will tell you the first day I got here,

0:26:56.400 --> 0:26:59.160
<v Speaker 8>I flew in on the day of Game three, got

0:26:59.200 --> 0:27:03.199
<v Speaker 8>to the hotel, went out, grabbed some lunch before I

0:27:03.240 --> 0:27:07.680
<v Speaker 8>went to the stadium. Walking around the city, you see

0:27:07.720 --> 0:27:12.399
<v Speaker 8>nothing but Mariners jerseys and Mariners attire. Strangers in the

0:27:12.440 --> 0:27:15.520
<v Speaker 8>street high five in each other. You know, this is

0:27:15.520 --> 0:27:19.360
<v Speaker 8>the biggest game they've had in Seattle, and a playoff game,

0:27:19.520 --> 0:27:23.840
<v Speaker 8>and I think it's twenty four years And the excitement

0:27:23.880 --> 0:27:26.800
<v Speaker 8>level in that stadium on Game three was, you know,

0:27:27.000 --> 0:27:29.320
<v Speaker 8>one of the best atmospheres that I had seen in baseball.

0:27:29.680 --> 0:27:32.800
<v Speaker 8>People were really excited for what the Mariners had done

0:27:32.840 --> 0:27:35.359
<v Speaker 8>on the road, where they had gotten to at this point,

0:27:36.600 --> 0:27:38.400
<v Speaker 8>and after they lost Game one, there was a little

0:27:38.440 --> 0:27:42.560
<v Speaker 8>bit of optimism yesterday. But when the Blue just kind

0:27:42.560 --> 0:27:45.080
<v Speaker 8>of took the lead there early on in the game,

0:27:45.280 --> 0:27:48.240
<v Speaker 8>there was not a lot of energy in there. You

0:27:48.280 --> 0:27:50.960
<v Speaker 8>know they tried to maybe try to manufacture something a

0:27:50.960 --> 0:27:54.320
<v Speaker 8>little bit later. You know, I think when you Inineo

0:27:54.480 --> 0:27:56.960
<v Speaker 8>had that base hit, the game was still kind of

0:27:57.000 --> 0:27:59.840
<v Speaker 8>within striking distance at that point, and then when Josh

0:28:00.000 --> 0:28:03.920
<v Speaker 8>Taylor made that last out of third base, you could

0:28:03.960 --> 0:28:06.440
<v Speaker 8>see people kind of turning around, looking towards the exit

0:28:06.600 --> 0:28:08.479
<v Speaker 8>and trying to decide if it was time to believe or not.

0:28:09.720 --> 0:28:12.240
<v Speaker 4>Tell us where Gosman steps up tonight or how he

0:28:12.359 --> 0:28:15.320
<v Speaker 4>steps up. He's been one of their most consistent pitchers,

0:28:15.440 --> 0:28:17.879
<v Speaker 4>is the best pitcher on the team right now. He

0:28:18.080 --> 0:28:21.800
<v Speaker 4>sees old Man River throw last night. Do you think

0:28:21.840 --> 0:28:25.240
<v Speaker 4>he's a guy that feeds off of that, feeds off

0:28:25.280 --> 0:28:27.520
<v Speaker 4>the fact that Max did what he did and he's like,

0:28:28.320 --> 0:28:32.280
<v Speaker 4>I'm taking us back to Toronto to close it out in

0:28:32.359 --> 0:28:35.359
<v Speaker 4>Game six, not just give it my best. Or is

0:28:35.400 --> 0:28:36.400
<v Speaker 4>he not that kind of guy?

0:28:37.560 --> 0:28:40.880
<v Speaker 8>No, I think they have polar opposite sort of demeanors

0:28:40.880 --> 0:28:43.120
<v Speaker 8>when it comes to starting pitching, Like Gosmand do your

0:28:43.120 --> 0:28:46.160
<v Speaker 8>typical starting pitcher. This is just my opinion because I've

0:28:46.160 --> 0:28:47.800
<v Speaker 8>never been in the clubhouse with him. I didn't play

0:28:47.800 --> 0:28:50.000
<v Speaker 8>with him, but he seems like a guy who has

0:28:50.040 --> 0:28:54.280
<v Speaker 8>his routine you probably don't talk to him during his start.

0:28:54.840 --> 0:28:57.440
<v Speaker 8>He's kind of head down, headphones on, just kind of

0:28:57.440 --> 0:29:00.960
<v Speaker 8>focused on what he needs to do. But don't let

0:29:01.000 --> 0:29:02.720
<v Speaker 8>that fool you for the type of competitor he is

0:29:02.760 --> 0:29:05.520
<v Speaker 8>once he steps on the mound. But I would imagine

0:29:06.320 --> 0:29:09.560
<v Speaker 8>within that pitching staff and crads, maybe you would know

0:29:09.600 --> 0:29:12.240
<v Speaker 8>this better. As being a catcher, there's always that friendly

0:29:12.240 --> 0:29:14.719
<v Speaker 8>competition to kind of one up each other. And I

0:29:14.760 --> 0:29:18.120
<v Speaker 8>think what Biaber did starting in Game three kind of

0:29:18.120 --> 0:29:21.680
<v Speaker 8>set this bar for the pitching staff moving forward in

0:29:21.720 --> 0:29:23.960
<v Speaker 8>this series. And then Schurezer goes out and kind of

0:29:23.960 --> 0:29:26.320
<v Speaker 8>tops that, and I would expect Gosman to kind of

0:29:26.360 --> 0:29:26.800
<v Speaker 8>go out and.

0:29:27.160 --> 0:29:28.200
<v Speaker 7>Top what Schuser did.

0:29:28.560 --> 0:29:32.160
<v Speaker 8>He's the one guy that I think, more than anyone

0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:36.040
<v Speaker 8>in this pitching staff, John Schneider has the utmost faith

0:29:36.080 --> 0:29:38.680
<v Speaker 8>in He's got the longest leash. He's earned that, he's

0:29:38.720 --> 0:29:42.160
<v Speaker 8>been their ace, you know, from the moment he's signed

0:29:42.160 --> 0:29:44.440
<v Speaker 8>to be there. I expect him to go deep into

0:29:44.520 --> 0:29:48.000
<v Speaker 8>this game. I expect him to once again kind of

0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:51.280
<v Speaker 8>feed off the emotions that the Mariners are feeling right now.

0:29:51.320 --> 0:29:56.040
<v Speaker 8>They are feeling a sense of huge desperation, almost to

0:29:56.120 --> 0:29:58.120
<v Speaker 8>the sense where you could kind of almost feel that

0:29:58.160 --> 0:30:01.880
<v Speaker 8>there's gonna be some heroic type of swings being taken

0:30:02.520 --> 0:30:05.719
<v Speaker 8>from the Seattle players. Each individual guy is trying to

0:30:05.760 --> 0:30:08.680
<v Speaker 8>get theirs to try to maybe spark their offense or

0:30:08.720 --> 0:30:11.840
<v Speaker 8>spark their team, and I think that feeds right into

0:30:11.840 --> 0:30:15.080
<v Speaker 8>gosmand ability to just keep throwing that splitter below the

0:30:15.160 --> 0:30:16.920
<v Speaker 8>zone and keep getting some chase.

0:30:17.720 --> 0:30:20.040
<v Speaker 3>Hey, you're playing right into my question when you say

0:30:20.040 --> 0:30:22.520
<v Speaker 3>heroic swings. So first I'll start it with a joke.

0:30:22.640 --> 0:30:25.120
<v Speaker 3>In which inning in this next game do you think

0:30:25.240 --> 0:30:27.440
<v Speaker 3>Andre Samenez will hit a two run home run to

0:30:27.520 --> 0:30:29.560
<v Speaker 3>right field? All kidding aside, though I want to I

0:30:29.640 --> 0:30:33.760
<v Speaker 3>want to preface this. Okay, fourth inning, no third, third,

0:30:34.480 --> 0:30:37.360
<v Speaker 3>third inning.

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:38.960
<v Speaker 8>Just like the last two nights, Just like the last

0:30:38.960 --> 0:30:41.720
<v Speaker 8>two nights, the third inc same situation, And he was

0:30:41.760 --> 0:30:45.320
<v Speaker 8>really honest about like and you could tell and being

0:30:45.360 --> 0:30:47.719
<v Speaker 8>able to kind of get the behind the scenes and

0:30:47.760 --> 0:30:49.719
<v Speaker 8>talking to him and being able to look at all

0:30:49.760 --> 0:30:52.960
<v Speaker 8>the different video angles. You know what he said in

0:30:53.040 --> 0:30:55.160
<v Speaker 8>the first game is he was just trying to get

0:30:55.160 --> 0:30:55.720
<v Speaker 8>the run over.

0:30:56.240 --> 0:30:57.680
<v Speaker 7>And I was in the booth with.

0:30:57.720 --> 0:30:59.840
<v Speaker 8>Caleb Joseph and we went back and watched the swing

0:31:00.160 --> 0:31:02.480
<v Speaker 8>and over he actually choked up on the bat after

0:31:02.480 --> 0:31:04.360
<v Speaker 8>his first swing and miss. He choked up on the back.

0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:06.840
<v Speaker 8>He was just trying to put the ball in play,

0:31:06.880 --> 0:31:09.400
<v Speaker 8>moving the runner over, being the nine hole hitter, a

0:31:09.560 --> 0:31:13.440
<v Speaker 8>very high baseball IQ guy, and gets rewarded with the

0:31:13.440 --> 0:31:15.160
<v Speaker 8>home run. And then you go to the next night,

0:31:15.240 --> 0:31:18.320
<v Speaker 8>the same exact situation. He gets two oh, and he

0:31:18.400 --> 0:31:21.680
<v Speaker 8>takes this gigantic swing where he looked like he was

0:31:21.680 --> 0:31:23.800
<v Speaker 8>trying to jump ship and repeat what he did the

0:31:23.920 --> 0:31:26.960
<v Speaker 8>night before. Then he gets into an even count two

0:31:26.960 --> 0:31:29.080
<v Speaker 8>and two, and he fights off some pitches, and then

0:31:29.120 --> 0:31:32.840
<v Speaker 8>we saw that maybe he wasn't as comfortable off Castillo

0:31:33.320 --> 0:31:35.200
<v Speaker 8>as the bat went on, and he went for having

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:38.120
<v Speaker 8>a lake kick to basically like a Bobashett get the

0:31:38.120 --> 0:31:41.880
<v Speaker 8>foot down early situation, and was able to kind of

0:31:41.880 --> 0:31:44.960
<v Speaker 8>repeat and have this kind of deja vum moment, same inning,

0:31:45.040 --> 0:31:48.640
<v Speaker 8>same situation, puts his team up in the third inning,

0:31:48.760 --> 0:31:49.920
<v Speaker 8>just trying to move a runner over.

0:31:51.080 --> 0:31:54.920
<v Speaker 3>That's hey, he should do that more often. Just being real.

0:31:55.000 --> 0:31:57.160
<v Speaker 3>I mean, Andre's had a brutal season at the play.

0:31:57.240 --> 0:31:59.040
<v Speaker 3>He started this year as the cleanup hitter. I remember

0:31:59.080 --> 0:32:00.600
<v Speaker 3>we were like, huh, he's got to be the cleanup

0:32:00.640 --> 0:32:03.560
<v Speaker 3>hitter is Toronto serious. And then eventually so you moved down

0:32:03.560 --> 0:32:05.520
<v Speaker 3>to the lineup and he had a rough year. It's

0:32:05.640 --> 0:32:09.280
<v Speaker 3>just that's what the playoffs are all about. Korgey Polanka,

0:32:09.560 --> 0:32:13.120
<v Speaker 3>Andre Semenez, guys like that who suddenly look like stars

0:32:13.160 --> 0:32:14.800
<v Speaker 3>and they're in the history books and the whole deal.

0:32:14.840 --> 0:32:18.440
<v Speaker 3>The follow up I had real quick is aggressive swings

0:32:18.560 --> 0:32:21.160
<v Speaker 3>and doing damage in the zone. Isn't that what players

0:32:21.160 --> 0:32:23.240
<v Speaker 3>are always trying to do. I know Game three was

0:32:23.320 --> 0:32:25.480
<v Speaker 3>unique because they were doing it always early in counts.

0:32:25.520 --> 0:32:28.040
<v Speaker 3>They drove up counts a little bit more in the

0:32:28.160 --> 0:32:30.360
<v Speaker 3>game four win. But I just want to get more

0:32:30.400 --> 0:32:34.240
<v Speaker 3>perspective on how a team actually changes approach like that,

0:32:34.360 --> 0:32:37.040
<v Speaker 3>if that's real, or if some of that's just kind

0:32:37.040 --> 0:32:39.160
<v Speaker 3>of making sure that your guys stay dialed into what

0:32:39.160 --> 0:32:42.320
<v Speaker 3>their game plan always should be. Spit at balls if

0:32:42.360 --> 0:32:45.320
<v Speaker 3>you see fastballs in the zone, go crazy with your

0:32:45.320 --> 0:32:45.760
<v Speaker 3>a swing.

0:32:47.000 --> 0:32:49.440
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I mean, I would say it's probably a little

0:32:49.480 --> 0:32:53.000
<v Speaker 8>bit of both. I mean, ultimately, as a competitor and

0:32:53.080 --> 0:32:56.479
<v Speaker 8>as a person staying in the batter's box, those are

0:32:56.560 --> 0:32:58.520
<v Speaker 8>kind of always the thing, So I think, yeah, maybe

0:32:58.520 --> 0:33:01.720
<v Speaker 8>it was a little reverse psychic coology from the manager.

0:33:02.040 --> 0:33:03.320
<v Speaker 8>But I think you just got to give a ton

0:33:03.320 --> 0:33:06.880
<v Speaker 8>of credit to the hitting coaches that Toronto brought in.

0:33:07.120 --> 0:33:07.960
<v Speaker 7>I think it's been.

0:33:09.400 --> 0:33:11.840
<v Speaker 8>I don't think I've been told it's just been a

0:33:11.840 --> 0:33:16.360
<v Speaker 8>culture changer, the fact that he's gotten every single person

0:33:16.400 --> 0:33:19.480
<v Speaker 8>to buy into what they believe. And the biggest thing

0:33:19.560 --> 0:33:24.000
<v Speaker 8>talking to them, you know, during VP, is they they

0:33:24.040 --> 0:33:26.000
<v Speaker 8>give the guys the freedom to chase.

0:33:25.800 --> 0:33:27.960
<v Speaker 7>Within the parameters of where they do damage.

0:33:28.320 --> 0:33:30.320
<v Speaker 8>Meaning, if you're a guy that likes the ball close

0:33:30.360 --> 0:33:33.320
<v Speaker 8>to you and you're a pool guy, it's okay to chase,

0:33:33.400 --> 0:33:35.760
<v Speaker 8>chase sinkers in off the plate, It's okay to chase

0:33:35.800 --> 0:33:39.320
<v Speaker 8>the backup slider in. If you're a guy who likes

0:33:39.320 --> 0:33:41.280
<v Speaker 8>the ball out over the play and up, you know,

0:33:41.360 --> 0:33:43.400
<v Speaker 8>you have freedom to chase in those areas. So I

0:33:43.400 --> 0:33:46.560
<v Speaker 8>think the guys just understanding that you don't have to

0:33:46.600 --> 0:33:50.560
<v Speaker 8>be perfect. I think a lot of hitting coaches around baseball,

0:33:51.520 --> 0:33:54.240
<v Speaker 8>you know, make hitting seem like it's really easy, like, hey,

0:33:54.520 --> 0:33:56.960
<v Speaker 8>just look for the fastball out over the play and

0:33:57.000 --> 0:33:59.240
<v Speaker 8>when the slider pops, you know, just take the same swing.

0:33:59.400 --> 0:34:01.600
<v Speaker 8>It's really not that easy. It's not that easy to

0:34:02.040 --> 0:34:04.840
<v Speaker 8>hunt a fastball here, recognize a pitch here. But when

0:34:04.880 --> 0:34:07.600
<v Speaker 8>you could kind of narrow your focus into what you

0:34:07.640 --> 0:34:09.359
<v Speaker 8>do well, what side of the plate you do well,

0:34:09.560 --> 0:34:11.799
<v Speaker 8>and you have freedom to not be perfect every time

0:34:11.840 --> 0:34:14.359
<v Speaker 8>you swing the bat. Uh there's a lot of sense

0:34:14.400 --> 0:34:15.080
<v Speaker 8>of freedom in that.

0:34:16.400 --> 0:34:20.240
<v Speaker 4>KP. Real quick. You said they're going to the World Series,

0:34:20.920 --> 0:34:25.200
<v Speaker 4>name your first two first pitch throwers for the Blue Jays,

0:34:25.239 --> 0:34:28.160
<v Speaker 4>so the Blue Jay fans can get absolutely amped about

0:34:28.160 --> 0:34:30.279
<v Speaker 4>who they're going to see and in the first two

0:34:30.320 --> 0:34:33.400
<v Speaker 4>games throwing the first pitch since you're already off the table.

0:34:34.480 --> 0:34:36.400
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, and I don't think I'll be asked to do

0:34:36.440 --> 0:34:40.600
<v Speaker 8>it anytime soon. Uh ru Yeah, unless I you know,

0:34:40.640 --> 0:34:42.359
<v Speaker 8>if I get an opportunity to do it again, I'm

0:34:42.360 --> 0:34:44.759
<v Speaker 8>gonna man up and just jug out to shallow and

0:34:45.160 --> 0:34:47.719
<v Speaker 8>just let one rip, because then there's no expectations for

0:34:47.800 --> 0:34:48.640
<v Speaker 8>me to get it home.

0:34:50.400 --> 0:34:51.000
<v Speaker 7>Who would they.

0:34:51.040 --> 0:34:54.120
<v Speaker 8>Roll out Who would they roll out for the first

0:34:54.120 --> 0:34:56.359
<v Speaker 8>two games of the World Series if they get there

0:34:56.520 --> 0:34:59.760
<v Speaker 8>or when they get there. I would imagine Joe Carter's

0:34:59.760 --> 0:35:03.919
<v Speaker 8>probab probably on a short list of guys they would

0:35:04.000 --> 0:35:08.759
<v Speaker 8>roll out there, maybe Dave Steve's I mean, I don't know,

0:35:08.840 --> 0:35:10.839
<v Speaker 8>I would imagine Joe Carter would maybe be the guy

0:35:10.880 --> 0:35:14.160
<v Speaker 8>they'd roll out there for for Game one. I do

0:35:14.239 --> 0:35:16.680
<v Speaker 8>have a little bit of maybe inside info, who who

0:35:16.719 --> 0:35:18.880
<v Speaker 8>may be thrown out the first pitch for Game six

0:35:19.280 --> 0:35:22.799
<v Speaker 8>back in Toronto, now that they've guaranteed himself an opportunity

0:35:22.800 --> 0:35:25.000
<v Speaker 8>to go play at least one more game in the

0:35:25.080 --> 0:35:25.960
<v Speaker 8>Rogers Center.

0:35:26.320 --> 0:35:30.480
<v Speaker 3>Tell us I have an educated guess. I'm just gonna

0:35:30.520 --> 0:35:32.600
<v Speaker 3>ask it real quick as a question. Has Jose Bautista

0:35:32.640 --> 0:35:34.719
<v Speaker 3>thrown out of first pitch yet? Was he already there?

0:35:35.239 --> 0:35:35.520
<v Speaker 4>I'm not.

0:35:35.719 --> 0:35:37.600
<v Speaker 8>I'm not sure if he has. I'm not sure if

0:35:37.600 --> 0:35:41.640
<v Speaker 8>he has. I mean, there's there's a chance that.

0:35:43.080 --> 0:35:43.759
<v Speaker 7>I think he did.

0:35:43.800 --> 0:35:45.600
<v Speaker 8>I think he did when they I think he did

0:35:45.640 --> 0:35:49.120
<v Speaker 8>when they put his name up in the level of excellence.

0:35:49.760 --> 0:35:52.279
<v Speaker 3>Right, what I'm saying for this postseason, he hasn't thrown

0:35:52.320 --> 0:35:55.160
<v Speaker 3>one out, So he's still available on the bench, ready

0:35:55.200 --> 0:35:55.960
<v Speaker 3>to get the phone call.

0:35:58.040 --> 0:36:01.400
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I think go gos Of available. I think uh,

0:36:01.560 --> 0:36:07.240
<v Speaker 8>Dianna Navarro is available. Uh, you know Colobello Adam Blend

0:36:07.360 --> 0:36:10.400
<v Speaker 8>is available. He wasn't on postseason team. Uh, but that

0:36:10.560 --> 0:36:13.960
<v Speaker 8>you know Muninori cow I would say, bring Muninoria Kawasaki

0:36:14.040 --> 0:36:17.000
<v Speaker 8>out for for you know, game six and really just

0:36:17.239 --> 0:36:21.320
<v Speaker 8>energize that stadium that doesn't really need any more electricity.

0:36:21.400 --> 0:36:24.400
<v Speaker 8>But what a scene that would be. You know, everyone's

0:36:24.440 --> 0:36:29.239
<v Speaker 8>maybe expecting a everyone's expecting a Jose Batista or Edwin

0:36:29.280 --> 0:36:31.359
<v Speaker 8>already did it. You know, Donaldson already did it. You're

0:36:31.360 --> 0:36:34.560
<v Speaker 8>expecting a player like Jose to you know, come out

0:36:34.560 --> 0:36:36.920
<v Speaker 8>of the dugout and all of a sudden, it's just

0:36:37.000 --> 0:36:39.560
<v Speaker 8>all in Japanese and everyone's like, what what's going on?

0:36:39.600 --> 0:36:43.279
<v Speaker 8>And then Muoninori Kawisaki comes out there holding a couple

0:36:43.320 --> 0:36:47.080
<v Speaker 8>of bananas, which maybe, hey, which, maybe Jackson Cherios needs

0:36:47.120 --> 0:36:50.439
<v Speaker 8>to eat more bananas because you know, in the fame

0:36:50.719 --> 0:36:54.280
<v Speaker 8>he and the famous words and Muninori Kawasaki monkeys never cramped.

0:36:55.320 --> 0:36:59.879
<v Speaker 3>It's true, true, true, he knows he talk.

0:37:01.040 --> 0:37:03.359
<v Speaker 8>You thrown out of first pitch before, and I'm sure

0:37:03.400 --> 0:37:04.399
<v Speaker 8>you have, and you made it.

0:37:04.320 --> 0:37:07.040
<v Speaker 2>To Home Blake opening then in Cincinnati right on the

0:37:07.080 --> 0:37:09.800
<v Speaker 2>outside corner, strike three, baby, I threw.

0:37:09.680 --> 0:37:10.359
<v Speaker 1>A firm too.

0:37:11.760 --> 0:37:14.480
<v Speaker 3>Paint paint. We'll send you the clip. We got a

0:37:14.520 --> 0:37:17.239
<v Speaker 3>run kp or the man have a great show later

0:37:17.480 --> 0:37:20.120
<v Speaker 3>and we'll see if the blue Jays went out here

0:37:20.239 --> 0:37:21.319
<v Speaker 3>like you're talking about all.

0:37:21.239 --> 0:37:23.360
<v Speaker 7>Right, I'll see you guys.

0:37:23.560 --> 0:37:27.840
<v Speaker 3>Let's show this tweet from Keegan Matheson about Surezer passing

0:37:28.440 --> 0:37:31.359
<v Speaker 3>manager John Schneider, who is a close second to Pat

0:37:31.440 --> 0:37:35.440
<v Speaker 3>Murphy in this postseason for epic quotes even when he's

0:37:35.440 --> 0:37:39.400
<v Speaker 3>not on the podium. Schneider apparently passed him and with

0:37:39.480 --> 0:37:42.880
<v Speaker 3>a big slap on his back said all right, you psycho,

0:37:42.960 --> 0:37:46.480
<v Speaker 3>get in there. Your term to talk to the media.

0:37:47.080 --> 0:37:50.560
<v Speaker 3>Schneid's was pumped to get like the get the hell

0:37:50.600 --> 0:37:53.200
<v Speaker 3>out of my face essentially from Schurzer and go back

0:37:53.200 --> 0:37:56.960
<v Speaker 3>to your damn dugout, stop removing pictures early Toronto, talking

0:37:56.960 --> 0:37:58.920
<v Speaker 3>to the organization in general. I felt like that was

0:37:58.920 --> 0:38:02.120
<v Speaker 3>like a bigger message, like you stop it, and not

0:38:02.200 --> 0:38:04.480
<v Speaker 3>just you John, I'm talking about all of you, all

0:38:04.480 --> 0:38:07.040
<v Speaker 3>of you management. You leave us alone, where the labor,

0:38:07.080 --> 0:38:08.960
<v Speaker 3>where the employees, go back to your damn dug out

0:38:08.960 --> 0:38:11.319
<v Speaker 3>and let me finish this damn inning and then go

0:38:11.360 --> 0:38:12.000
<v Speaker 3>into the next one.

0:38:14.200 --> 0:38:17.879
<v Speaker 4>Mike drop thanks to the mic drop moment on the mound, YEP.

0:38:17.880 --> 0:38:23.160
<v Speaker 4>I don't appreciate Max pushing pushing Pete Walker when he

0:38:23.200 --> 0:38:25.359
<v Speaker 4>came in like he came down the steps and Pete

0:38:25.400 --> 0:38:27.080
<v Speaker 4>wanted to say something to him, and he kind of

0:38:27.120 --> 0:38:31.440
<v Speaker 4>like kind he kind of bumped them. After he settles

0:38:31.480 --> 0:38:34.399
<v Speaker 4>down after his start. If I'm the manager, I'm gonna

0:38:34.440 --> 0:38:37.120
<v Speaker 4>be like, I love everything you do. I can't have

0:38:37.880 --> 0:38:42.160
<v Speaker 4>mutiny in the dugout, he.

0:38:42.160 --> 0:38:45.080
<v Speaker 3>Was in my way, I'm a psycho. You know what

0:38:45.120 --> 0:38:46.959
<v Speaker 3>you signed up for. I'm forty one years old.

0:38:48.560 --> 0:38:52.360
<v Speaker 4>But they but they also but they also had a

0:38:52.400 --> 0:38:56.320
<v Speaker 4>clip they showed it. The whole dugout was superjuiced talking

0:38:56.360 --> 0:38:59.920
<v Speaker 4>about what Max did. Like you saw like Vladdy Laddy.

0:39:00.000 --> 0:39:02.319
<v Speaker 4>He was like, I was in there. I was in there.

0:39:02.440 --> 0:39:05.359
<v Speaker 4>And you talk about energy, you talk about how like

0:39:05.440 --> 0:39:08.719
<v Speaker 4>how does that affect a team? That clip should be

0:39:08.719 --> 0:39:11.799
<v Speaker 4>clipped for everybody, every front office who's like, I don't

0:39:11.800 --> 0:39:16.600
<v Speaker 4>know this guy's his fip E RA warranted plus minus

0:39:17.000 --> 0:39:20.960
<v Speaker 4>negative is not great. But what he brings to the

0:39:21.000 --> 0:39:23.759
<v Speaker 4>mound obviously has to do good. But that energy and

0:39:23.840 --> 0:39:25.840
<v Speaker 4>everything permeates the whole team.

0:39:26.120 --> 0:39:28.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and he didn't have a good year, but this

0:39:28.280 --> 0:39:31.440
<v Speaker 3>starts worth the whole contract, right If I mean, if

0:39:31.440 --> 0:39:35.319
<v Speaker 3>you don't have that, you you're probably bounced. If you're

0:39:35.360 --> 0:39:38.560
<v Speaker 3>down three to one, you're in trouble. Bieber two Bieber

0:39:38.600 --> 0:39:41.080
<v Speaker 3>had ups and downs with them, but that starts the

0:39:41.120 --> 0:39:48.840
<v Speaker 3>other day, which, okay, A couple questions here. First off,

0:39:49.360 --> 0:39:51.160
<v Speaker 3>John said in the check, can we be sure that

0:39:51.600 --> 0:39:54.640
<v Speaker 3>teams aren't cheating anymore? Without wanting to accuse any team

0:39:54.680 --> 0:39:59.600
<v Speaker 3>in particular, I mean, I by cheating, is he mean?

0:40:00.120 --> 0:40:03.320
<v Speaker 3>Does he mean like illegal sign stealing, tech sign stealing?

0:40:04.120 --> 0:40:06.319
<v Speaker 3>The tipping thing this year that took over, Like that's

0:40:06.400 --> 0:40:09.640
<v Speaker 3>that's legal as far as I know. I mean, you're

0:40:09.800 --> 0:40:13.080
<v Speaker 3>you're using AI to figure out tips, but you relay

0:40:13.080 --> 0:40:15.439
<v Speaker 3>that to your team, and then someone standing at second

0:40:15.480 --> 0:40:20.319
<v Speaker 3>base allowed to say what they're seeing. Now, I don't know.

0:40:20.200 --> 0:40:21.080
<v Speaker 1>What he's trying to say.

0:40:21.280 --> 0:40:25.120
<v Speaker 3>The only thing I can. We joked about this and

0:40:25.160 --> 0:40:27.200
<v Speaker 3>it went a little viral for I think it went

0:40:27.239 --> 0:40:28.680
<v Speaker 3>more viral because he had no idea what he was

0:40:28.680 --> 0:40:31.239
<v Speaker 3>talking about. But Craig Carton put out a thing about

0:40:31.280 --> 0:40:33.920
<v Speaker 3>Bryce Miller saying he's like a no name scrub, but

0:40:34.160 --> 0:40:35.960
<v Speaker 3>he doesn't even know who he is. And then he

0:40:36.040 --> 0:40:37.799
<v Speaker 3>was trying to say how the Jays are cheating and

0:40:37.840 --> 0:40:40.480
<v Speaker 3>he'll die on that, he'll but he was saying they're

0:40:40.560 --> 0:40:44.400
<v Speaker 3>cheating against that they looked bad against Bryce Miller. Okay,

0:40:44.440 --> 0:40:47.560
<v Speaker 3>but Bryce Miller was pitching in Toronto like the home road.

0:40:47.600 --> 0:40:49.560
<v Speaker 3>Part of what he was saying made no sense. Literally

0:40:49.600 --> 0:40:51.919
<v Speaker 3>nothing he said made sense. But that's the I haven't

0:40:51.920 --> 0:40:54.960
<v Speaker 3>seen anybody else throw anything else out there that's gotten legs.

0:40:55.200 --> 0:40:59.800
<v Speaker 4>But people will always be cheating. People will always be cheating.

0:40:59.800 --> 0:41:03.040
<v Speaker 4>You have to understand that because there's so much money

0:41:03.040 --> 0:41:05.719
<v Speaker 4>in having elite success. I know somebody that won a

0:41:05.760 --> 0:41:11.000
<v Speaker 4>batting title and he was caught with somebody with binoculars

0:41:11.000 --> 0:41:13.919
<v Speaker 4>in center field? So did he do that all the time?

0:41:14.000 --> 0:41:16.680
<v Speaker 4>Did that? Is that the reason that he had just

0:41:16.719 --> 0:41:21.279
<v Speaker 4>an incredible year is a good player. It's just it's

0:41:21.320 --> 0:41:23.640
<v Speaker 4>one of those things. There's always but to tech stuff.

0:41:23.680 --> 0:41:25.360
<v Speaker 4>Major Leaue Baseball has done a really good job of

0:41:25.760 --> 0:41:34.080
<v Speaker 4>controlling a lot of the tech stuff.

0:41:41.400 --> 0:41:43.439
<v Speaker 3>Hey, let's slap Todd father and I worked really hard

0:41:43.480 --> 0:41:46.239
<v Speaker 3>for fifteen seconds to do an Instagram story on the

0:41:46.280 --> 0:41:49.160
<v Speaker 3>Foul Territory Instagram account. You can vote for which team

0:41:49.200 --> 0:41:50.440
<v Speaker 3>you think is going to represent the AL in the

0:41:50.440 --> 0:41:54.719
<v Speaker 3>World Series. Currently at fifty three percent Jas forty Mariners.

0:41:54.920 --> 0:41:58.959
<v Speaker 3>It is close, ye, mister Kratz.

0:42:01.400 --> 0:42:05.240
<v Speaker 5>Oh team and these just watch what's going on. Watch

0:42:05.280 --> 0:42:07.840
<v Speaker 5>how the Dodgers have built what they've built, and stop

0:42:07.880 --> 0:42:12.719
<v Speaker 5>being a small market team small just get after it.

0:42:13.239 --> 0:42:15.120
<v Speaker 5>Your team is there to win. That's what the Red

0:42:15.120 --> 0:42:17.440
<v Speaker 5>Sox do.

0:42:15.520 --> 0:42:19.480
<v Speaker 3>Don't sleep on the Zach Scott interview if you want

0:42:19.480 --> 0:42:21.239
<v Speaker 3>to watch it back on YouTube or we'll post it

0:42:21.320 --> 0:42:23.920
<v Speaker 3>podcast wise on Monday Morning where he said he used

0:42:23.960 --> 0:42:26.759
<v Speaker 3>to work for Red Talxs owner John Henry. He said

0:42:26.800 --> 0:42:28.560
