Speaker 1: we are right now. We talked about this last night.

17
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: This was the game that the Brewers absolutely had to have.

18
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 1: Dodgers lead it right now two to one because Max

19
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 1: Munsey hit the ball about five feet further than he

20
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: did last night when it turned into a double play.

21
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: Making sure that hey rka, good luck going to catch

22
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 1: this one. So now the Dodgers take their two to

23
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 1: one lead. They are three to one now and they

24
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 1: are now counting and hunting outs to go back home

25
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: up to zip in the NLCS, and you've got another

26
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: starter working deep. You didn't think so when you saw

27
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: that first pitch go flying the other way? Yeah, no,

28
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: not great, exent cheerio and not great. And that was it.

29
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: Six innings pitch, just three hits thus far, five strikeouts.

30
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: More importantly, only seventy six pitches, a very efficient six

31
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: innings for Yamamoto, which means we don't have to see

32
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: the bullpen necessarily for a little while. Yet. Nah, you

33
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: never know, though, you never so you never know. Hey, hey, look,

34
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: sometimes times Dave Roberts can't resist who he is. But

35
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: you know, you know, Dave Roberts is like, okay, Dave

36
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 1: Roberts is like uh looping from Harry Potter, in which like, Okay,

37
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: I know, I know I shouldn't turn into a were wolf, right,

38
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: I know it because stuff gets out of control and

39
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: I don't know what happens after and thing and bad

40
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: things happen, but I just can't help myself. I got

41
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: I turned into a were wolf. And I get it.

42
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: You gotta watch out like that's Dave. I know I

43
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: shouldn't go to the bullpen as often as I do.

44
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,239
Speaker 1: I can't help it. Yeah, but you can't mean the

45
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: phil moon still goes up, but he's done. I mean,

46
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? I have to go to

47
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: the bullpen when the moon is out. I gotta go

48
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: to the bullpen like that's who they is. I know,

49
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 1: I know it, But it happens. The moon comes out

50
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: and I gotta go to the pen. I gotta bring

51
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: guys in. It's how it goes the kid.

52
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 2: Uh.

53
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 1: You know if you if you touch that, it's gonna burn.

54
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,839
Speaker 1: But you still want to find out. I mean might

55
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 1: not this time, right, Uh maybe not? Maybe maybe not,

56
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: but you never know. How you keep playing with fire.

57
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: You know what they say, DJ, You're gonna get Corbyn burns.

58
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: So where we sit right now, top of the seventh inning,

59
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: Dodgers have the runner at third with one out. Sho

60
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: Hao Tani is up, who is won for his last

61
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: twenty three. Now, this is the big thing we talked

62
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: about this coming into this series, the biggest thing for

63
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: the Dodgers. Yes, we talk about the bullpen. We talk

64
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 1: about a lot of different things, but sho Hao Tani

65
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: just doesn't look comfortable right. He just doesn't look good

66
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: at the plate. He is opening up, he is waving

67
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: at breaking. If I'm a left handed pitcher, I throw

68
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: him a sweeper or something off the plate and he's

69
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: gonna wait, good, get it. And you can see that

70
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: he's not mentally. You can see that he is a

71
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: little lost. He's taking pitches he normally would take a

72
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: swing out. He's swinging at pitches he would normally take,

73
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: and it's just it's just not right. And he just

74
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: took a swing on a pitch that he looked like

75
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: maybe he tweaked something, because he didn't look one hundred

76
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 1: percent healthy coming off of that swing. He stepped out

77
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 1: of the batter's box, he kind of stood winced a

78
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: little bit. So honestly, I'm wondering how wise because we

79
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: talked about it. Look, we said, hey, look they need it.

80
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: You need Otani in this round. Your leadoff hit er

81
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: can't go, you know, oh for the entire series, and

82
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: you expect to win. But ye, at this point, seeing

83
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: him and and and seeing that that swing he just

84
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 1: had there, I really wonder if there's certain it's certain

85
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 1: types of torque, certain types of swings that he has

86
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,119
Speaker 1: that are causing him pain. I'm not just I'm playing

87
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: doctor here theorized trying. I'm trying to come up with

88
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 1: something that would explain show hal Tani being one for

89
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: his last twenty three physical versus mental and pride right

90
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: that we're trying to figure out what that equation is

91
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: and how big the coefficient is on either parts of that.

92
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 3: Uh.

93
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 1: But yeah, he's he's waving it and balls up and

94
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 1: out of the zone. We watched it, and now he

95
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 1: just gets a base hit. Uh. That scores another runs

96
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: of the Dodgers for one between the first and second basement.

97
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 4: Uh.

98
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: And you can see the exhale as he got the

99
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 1: first face put it on here. Look, they gave him

100
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: a pitch he could handle on the inside part of

101
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: the plate and Otani grounds it through the right side,

102
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,480
Speaker 1: like this is a pitch that normally you give him

103
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: that type of fat pitch and he handles it and

104
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,359
Speaker 1: it's in the corner or it's in the seats, but

105
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: it was enough for a base and bring the run in.

106
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: And nothing has been more entertaining the last couple of

107
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: days than the shots of brewers fans following a bad

108
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 1: play that happens. I think that's become a really big

109
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: thing now in this playoff especially, I feel like there's

110
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: many more crowd shots of upset crying fans, especially other rounds. Yeah,

111
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: and then these sets got to be Midwestern. I'm just

112
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: saying it got to be sad. That's that's the picture

113
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: picture of a sad Midwest. We're not back in grapes

114
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: of wrath, like you know, hey the dust bowl and

115
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: all the crops, aren't you know, this is the early

116
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: nineteen hundreds and we're trying to find a way. And

117
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on now, but the problem

118
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: is that every person they've decided to isolate would be

119
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: the stereotypical farmer, the farmer Wisconsin I lade, which is

120
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: to say that it's a middle aged white male with

121
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 1: a large beer and a large gut. That's generally what

122
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 1: they've been showing farmers in the perch with a shotgun

123
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: when the crows come. I got a shot. I gotta

124
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: I mean like that, you gotta protect this house man.

125
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: Just weird. But look, this is that wrong. No, I

126
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: look on what I'm saying I have a picture for

127
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 1: early back in grapes of wrath Man Henry Fonda. Sure

128
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: would think the missing were the stirrups the other and

129
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: the the overalls. Update. You're stout there. He's now two

130
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: for whatever now is two twenty four twenty four. That's

131
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: like justin Field's numbers for twenty four. No, no, no gift.

132
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,719
Speaker 1: The field minus ten was justin fields. Twenty four is

133
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: way more than But to punctuate that, you give him

134
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: credit because he didn't try to overswing, because that's been

135
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: the hallmark of even go back to the last month

136
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: of the regular season. Strikeout rate was up, and he

137
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,679
Speaker 1: was trying to kill every pitch. Yeah, and even earlier

138
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: you had in a bat that he waved at strike

139
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 1: three that was up out of the zone, even still

140
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 1: trying to murder the ball. And at the one that

141
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 1: he wins stat and stepped out of the box like

142
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: he was trying to swing for a nine hundred foot

143
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 1: home run, and that one he shortened his swing, just

144
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 1: hit the ball through the through the right side for

145
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: the base hit to score the run. Look, and that's

146
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 1: the whole thing, is that when you're injured, if you

147
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: are injured, being able to know what you can do

148
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 1: is the bed look. And if that's the case with Otani,

149
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: Hey I don't have enough that I can. I can

150
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,559
Speaker 1: put this in the seats, but I get a sharp

151
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 1: ground ball, or I could you know, I'm I'm gonna

152
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: It's the old, the old adage of hey, choking up

153
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: one two strikes, right, it makes you understand, Hey, you

154
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: choke up with two strikes and you taught that little league,

155
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: which is stupid, but it doesn't matter. But the whole

156
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: philosophy is choking up with two strikes. Hey, protect me,

157
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: you know, protect you gotta know stuff. It's close, and

158
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: you got to concentrate on whatever you thought you were

159
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: going to do in that at bet. You got to

160
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 1: take down your expectations now because you got to put

161
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: the ball in play, right, You got to find a

162
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 1: way to get the ball and play, hit it hard somewhere,

163
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: and you take down, you tamp down your expectations. And

164
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: that's kind of what you do when you're injured, is that, Hey,

165
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: I'm up there. I can't do normal things, but I

166
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: can do close to normal things. So if a double

167
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: down the line becomes a single through the right side,

168
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 1: that's okay. If a home run in the second deck

169
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: becomes a single or a double off the wall, okay,

170
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: that's kind of what it is. And I, honestly, I

171
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: really wonder if that's it with Otani because that certainly

172
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: would explain why he's been struggling so much and why

173
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: he looks he just looks out of sorts at the plate. Well,

174
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: but just do it to put it in the larger

175
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: scope baseball, and hopefully we see a return to what

176
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 1: you and I and we've seen bunting, which if you

177
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: can execute great, most of the time you can't, so

178
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 1: don't do it. But all all that's say Scott Harrison

179
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: is his exit with the Tigers, just kind of talking

180
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:53,840
Speaker 1: about making contact instead of strikeouts. Yep. Right, And for Otani,

181
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,559
Speaker 1: once he been doing he's been swinging through balls strikeouts.

182
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: That's not helping anything, right, There's no pressure. It's like

183
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: you know, hockey, whatever, shoot the ball towards the net, right,

184
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 1: make the goalie do something. You have no idea how

185
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: they're going to handle it, how the defense is going

186
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 1: to react, et cetera. Same thing in Major League baseball.

187
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: We watched it with the pressure play last week with

188
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 1: the Phillies. What should have been a hey, what do

189
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: you do with the ball when it's hit to you

190
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: became a series clinching play. Yeah, always right, but it's

191
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: it's but if you don't put the ball in play,

192
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. And we've watched so many batters that

193
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: it's it's like, hey, that's fine, it's three outcome. It's like, no,

194
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: you've got to you still have to put the ball

195
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: in play. Well, and that's the overall thing to to

196
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 1: make a bigger point about Otani, right, Freddie Freeman strikes out,

197
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,320
Speaker 1: Dodgers go to the bottom of the seventh inning with

198
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: a four to one lead, Like, here's Otani again making

199
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,199
Speaker 1: the right play, you know, having the right at bat.

200
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: This is what I can do. If you look again

201
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: wincing after that that that swing and foul off. But yes,

202
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 1: when you get a pitch, you can I would not

203
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 1: throw the ball on the inside part of the plate.

204
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: I don't know what that was all about. That's a

205
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: gift for Otani. But the fact that hey, okay, I

206
00:09:58,480 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: know what I need to do here, and I got

207
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: to make sure or I get this run in and

208
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: I get the run in. It's not just the Yankees,

209
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: not just the lazy Yankees, but overall. And but the

210
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: Yankees get all the attention because of, you know, the

211
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: narrative of the last year being they're not good fundamentally,

212
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: they don't run the bases. Anybody will tell you don't

213
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: run the base as well, they don't do. But just

214
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 1: think about all the different bad fundamental baseball that we

215
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: have seen throughout the baseball playoffs, not limited to just

216
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: the Yankees, right, not limited just ti Oscar Hernandez and

217
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 1: his base running adventures yesterday, but there's all from different series.

218
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: It's wow, I can't believe. This is something that you

219
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,719
Speaker 1: have to know. You can't do this. You can't what

220
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: is happening here? And you see it throughout the different series,

221
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 1: and there's different moments here and there you go, oh wow, okay,

222
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: that's that's a moment where you know this bunt rotation

223
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 1: needs to be here, or this is a moment where

224
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: if you're stealing second base, you know you're taking the

225
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,319
Speaker 1: bat out of the hands of the person you want

226
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: to bat. So many different things that just go anti

227
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 1: fundamental baseball that I wonder if it's just the Yankees,

228
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: are the the the poster boys for this because as

229
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,839
Speaker 1: time goes on, like you see that, Wow, that's really

230
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: not good, right, Like we we talked about the Taoska

231
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: Hernandez obviously not knowing the tag up rule last night

232
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: in the game, but he had the bad base running

233
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: play the play before, we should have scored on the

234
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: base hit to right field and and he didn't see

235
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 1: the ball get done. Like, dude, you've been in baseball,

236
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 1: you know where that when the ball is off the bat,

237
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 1: where that's gonna go. You know that that's gonna be

238
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: something the outfielder gets. You know that's gonna be something

239
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: the outfielder doesn't get. Like, you have to know that

240
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: he should have scored on that, right This is a

241
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: ball that is hit to the right side of second base.

242
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 1: This is the ball. You got to score on that

243
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: and he doesn't. And it's you know, it's a fundamental play.

244
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 1: And not just fundamental like dropping fly balls as well,

245
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: or you know, not cutting off the ball. They're all tasks.

246
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 1: There's just so many Taoska Hernandez things we can say,

247
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: but how many how many of those equal homer? No,

248
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: that's it. That's the thing that we got to help,

249
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: Like how many fly balls can he drop? What is

250
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: the what can he even it out with with a

251
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: home run? Right? I mean with base running mistakes evened

252
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 1: out by a home run. X base running h plus

253
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:12,120
Speaker 1: x fielding equals one home run. Like I gotta say,

254
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: Paul can't kuon find out like I gotta say, he

255
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: was on and soda there please room three five eight?

256
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: He is he, he is there, he is. You gonna

257
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: say room seven six five. See that's it was your line.

258
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: That was seven six five seven six five. Yeah, that's

259
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: how much money he got seven or sixty five min.

260
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: I'm just impressed he were able to do that backwards

261
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: seven six five seven six six seven six five six

262
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 1: seven six seven six seven. Uh. So I would say

263
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,679
Speaker 1: he's operating a deficit last night, but now tonight, now

264
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: he's back. He's back at even, like I would say,

265
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,599
Speaker 1: he's back at zero s now to ask her Hernandez,

266
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 1: Like he dropped the fly ball, then he hit the

267
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 1: home run. Okay, he's even. But now the big base

268
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 1: running uh fiascos of last night, but now tonight, so

269
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 1: I think he's he's probably zero s. They won the game,

270
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: Yeah I know, but I'm saying, but the point is

271
00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: about about me his story if they lose. No, the

272
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 1: point is about fundamental baseball throughout the playoffs not being

273
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: what it should be. How many times did you watch

274
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: that list? I'm just using tasker Hernandez as an example

275
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 1: because it's so easy. How many times did you watch

276
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: that highlight? Ah? I didn't. Oh the best part was

277
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 1: going home and showing Zoe the highlight, which she is like,

278
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: the ball hit off the wall? I go, yeah, you

279
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: would think they would know that. Oh, and she was

280
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 1: why didn't he tag up? I go, I know she was,

281
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,719
Speaker 1: he didn't. You just have to weigh I said, Zoe,

282
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,319
Speaker 1: you're saying you could host the show now for me,

283
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: because you're saying everything that we said when we came on.

284
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: Here says oh, that was a big mistake. Oh and

285
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: the and who was that that didn't run the third isa?

286
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 1: That was Will Smith? She goes, oh that was that

287
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: was just as bad a mistake because he had time

288
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: to understand what he needed to do. I go, yeah, yeah, yeah,

289
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: all about it was supposed to be the smartest guy alive. Yeah,

290
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: because their catcher certainly was well comp is he slapping

291
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: Chris Rock? Yeah? Contraps was the only one that knew

292
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: everything going on. He knew the force out here and

293
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: the play to third base, Like he's the only one

294
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 1: that they knew veritable play. But in terms of you know,

295
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: baseball one on one, I mean, farmer the old rule

296
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,680
Speaker 1: of thumb, it's the runs you score after the sixth

297
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: with a lead that gets you to the winners circle.

298
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,839
Speaker 1: So you got your base hit RBI for show, how

299
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 1: TONI coming up to make it a four to one lead?

300
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,719
Speaker 1: Yamamoto is still dealing bottom seven exit ou about a

301
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: Fresco exit swallen' doumble of more. On Game two of

302
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: the NLCS, Dodgers win. This looks like it's gonna be

303
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,320

360
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 1: to Oscar Hernandez is up with two on. Nobody out

361
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: can make up for all of his uh, all all

362
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: of his all of his put stuff in the bank,

363
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 1: all of his base running and fielding errors, all of

364
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: those mistakes or the home run here and yes, it

365
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 1: would put stuff in the bank, like it would be okay.

366
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 1: Now he could have another base running gaff den, it's

367
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 1: credit or drop a fly ball and it's home run.

368
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:43,959
Speaker 4: Right.

369
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 1: No, if he hits another home run then he then

370
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: he banks it then like the next time he drops

371
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 1: the fly ball. You can't say anything. What did he

372
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:50,679
Speaker 1: do to your fan? What did he do to you?

373
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, dude, the dude can't do anything but

374
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: swing the bat like he can't run the bases, he can't,

375
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: he can't field. Yeah, it's only a story if they lose.

376
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 1: What I'm saying is he's looking to bank good will.

377
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: Now like it because the next five ball he drops,

378
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: people could be all over, but it's a home run.

379
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: Here was him saying he affed up. Not good enough

380
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: for you? Well, because well, okay, good enough. You know what,

381
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,200
Speaker 1: when you're a major leaguer, you have to know the

382
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 1: tag up rule because I knew it when I was like,

383
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: you know what, he did own it. They won the game,

384
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 1: like he if he if they'd lost, then then then

385
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: we have a bigger conversation. In the end, you won

386
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 1: the bullpen got out of it, and you got you

387
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: got home. Blake trying and did his job for one day.

388
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 1: Dave Roberts faith and Blake trying paid off. And what

389
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: I do love is they're just showing scene after seeing

390
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 1: a Murphy in the dugout and I want to catch

391
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 1: him with the this blanken guy or one of those

392
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: kind of things, you know, say my name kind of moments.

393
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,680
Speaker 1: Because he tried to disparage the Dodgers, saying they had

394
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 1: no idea who they were. Tried to play the little

395
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 1: guy get the best record, best record in the league. No,

396
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 1: the Dodgers have no idea who you are. They don't

397
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 1: do any advanced scout at all. They just show up.

398
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: Yeah we did. We don't need to. We don't need

399
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: that advance They just rolled it all out there. Nah,

400
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: we don't do it. We don't do any of that stuff. Nah,

401
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 1: not at all, not at all. Uh So Toskar Hernandez

402
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 1: ground to do a forest place, but he got the

403
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: runners over. He did. He might any that's zero. Some

404
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: that's zero, but he might as well. Bunny, that's it's like,

405
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: it's a point. You don't get a right, fine, I'll

413
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 1: Dodgers with the lead, they don't send the runner from third,

00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: quarterbacks over forty playing in this game Thursday night, when

459
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 1: you know it's gonna be tough sledding the game, the

460
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: under is what's gonna hit? Oh yeah, yeah, you get

461
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 1: you gotta. You had an icy hot ball with like

462
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: a picture of Rogers, picture of Flacco, picture of Icy

463
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 1: hot or some kind of bomb. I'm in for that. Yeah.

464
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,439
Speaker 1: They're not an official sponsor of the the NFL, but

465
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: it is a good line. And I like rodgers response

466
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 1: kind of talking about Hey, the old guys and what

467
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: do we say. The longer these guys play, the younger,

468
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 1: I feel right, so play another five years. I don't

469
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: know that you can. Joe Flacco's arm still seems fine.

470
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:38,360
Speaker 1: Y're winging in around, yeah, and Aaron Rodgers, Look, they're

471
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: in they're in the Catbirds seat. Man. You know, I'm

472
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: glad you brought that up, because here's the thing. I

473
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: can already tell you know where I'm going with this.

474
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 1: I can already tell all season, I'm gonna keep saying

475
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 1: the same thing. I am not believing in the Steelers

476
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 1: because they're not good. They play in a craptastic division.

477
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: They're not very good at anything, right, But Mike Tomlin's

478
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 1: at the point where he's feeling chesty because he's like, hey,

479
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: I don't know why you would trade Joe Flacco within

480
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: the division to the to the Bengals like that. I

481
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know why you would do that.

482
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: But hey, okay, then like, well, whoa dude, slow your roll.

483
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: But I always tell when Tomlin's getting chesty and he's

484
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 1: feeling good, he insults the media. Guys are annoying me today.

485
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 1: I don't know why. I don't know why you would

486
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: make that trade. The Steelers are not good. I'm teugh,

487
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 1: the Steelers are not good. They don't throw the ball well,

488
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 1: they don't run the ball well. Their defense is league

489
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,199
Speaker 1: average at best. This is not all the steel No,

490
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 1: their defense is league average. Look at all the metrics.

491
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,400
Speaker 1: They do nothing well except beat bad teams. And they

492
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,320
Speaker 1: happen to play this year in a division where all

493
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,000
Speaker 1: the teams are bad. But everything fell apart. That's not

494
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: good here, the last man standing. No, there's something to

495
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,120
Speaker 1: be said for that. It's like, look, if everybody else

496
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: is felled around you, they're sick. No, no, it doesn't

497
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 1: make you bad part and you can still show up

498
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: to work. You're the king. No, no, no, no, So

499
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 1: right now the Steelers are okay, put the ground on.

500
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 1: They're not just because Joe Burrow got hurt. Okay, it's

501
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: a cheap it's a cheap crown that's made out of

502
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: cardboard that falls apart, that has like pieces glued to

503
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: it in January. That may be the case. But right

504
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:18,640
Speaker 1: now they are standing dull. But they're not good, not good.

505
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 1: They're no, they're not even good. They're not the twinning game. No,

506
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: doesn't winning game good. You can be bad and win.

507
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 1: They're showing you. They're showing you can be bad and win.

508
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 3: No.

509
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 1: See, I say you're good if you're taking care of business,

510
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: you win. What's on the schedule, right you can only

511
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: be you're playing. No, I'm with you, you're good. I'm

512
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 1: with you in the AFC this year right now, that

513
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 1: constitutes good. I'm with you on this. The AFC stikes

514
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: you beause one team after another is falling apart. We

515
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: got the Colts, you beat the Jetsu were terrible. The

516
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 1: best team you played the Patriots, the Seahawks you lost to.

517
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 1: You beat the Patriots, okay, Patriots good. You beat the

518
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,040
Speaker 1: VI You wish you were the Patriots now and you're bad.

519
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: I wish I was any team but mine right now.

520
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 1: Any team. Give me any team, any team you love, Darren,

521
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: any team. You've done that dance in the Hallway game

522
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: for the last three weeks, and it actually really rivaled that.

523
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: You should said it instead of the do you remember

524
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: the twenty first? They should? They should sink it up

525
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:22,320
Speaker 1: with the old Genesis classic I can dance. Yeah, in

526
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 1: two months, I've gone from he's the guy, he's the

527
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: guy you wanted. Yes, he's coming in his culture, and

528
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: now I can't even see him finishing the year. Yeah,

529
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 1: it's not even finishing point. It's so don It's because

530
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 1: you held him up in both of your hands over here.

531
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 1: You know, he was great. I loved him. You were

532
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: like he was Simba, yeah, and that was I was

533
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: Raffiki hold them up. I mean like I held him

534
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: up like he was the king he was. But now

535
00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:48,680
Speaker 1: I could tell the job is too much for him.

536
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 1: The job that the decisions that he makes and things

537
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 1: is that you could tell the job isn't do basic math.

538
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 1: He couldn't throw a hail Mary from the fifty yard

539
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 1: line in the last play of the first half. We're

540
00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 1: just not going to do it. That's kicked to fifty.

541
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 1: That's not I get. I get Garrett Wilson. Why he's

542
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: so mad man. I mean, look, we got some justin

543
00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,640
Speaker 1: field stuff to get to, but the Steelers they're not good.

544
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: What do we have to get to they're not good.

545
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: I'm done talking about the Jets right now. That's what

546
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: I mean. Is I mean the one who just tease

547
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: more justin fields? Don't? Yeah, maybe you do need more

548
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: justin fields. Maybe justin fields. It's gonna be meeting on

549
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:31,760
Speaker 1: the fields. But look, it's your heart. Steelers not being anybody.

550
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: You eat the Vikings with a backup quarterback and you

551
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,919
Speaker 1: barely won that, and the and the Browns are terrible.

552
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: You're not good. You're not a good football team, but

553
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: the rest of your division is terrible. So successful, yes,

554
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 1: but good? No, I can point how many bands do

555
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 1: you know they're successful that their music is terrible, but

556
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: it doesn't know, but it's a matter that's a matter

557
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 1: of opinion. Steelers are terrible. No, No, but the music

558
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: I mean matter. I can tell you when a band's terrible.

559
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: To me, you are a band's terrible. I had plenty

560
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: of bands I don't like time, sold tons of records like, hey,

561
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,360
Speaker 1: isn't that great. I'm like, no, I'd have been enough

562
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 1: for me and our guy in the world, because I

563
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 1: would have said, Yeah, your album, it's all a bunch

564
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,119
Speaker 1: of filler songs. You have better songs. We'll see you

565
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 1: when you come back. Okay, thanks for coming, thanks to it.

566
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: Don't don't don't, don't pollute the world with bad music.

567
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,960
Speaker 1: Okay's enough. There's enough music to try to listen to

568
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,119
Speaker 1: out there. What the bottom line is, can you sell it?

569
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 1: And right now you can sell the Steelers are They

570
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 1: can't sell the Steelers being good. Rogers is not good.

571
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 1: They don't run the ball. They don't. Oh look at

572
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 1: he's found something with DK Metcalf. He threw him one pass.

573
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 1: He was wide open. Okay, they're not good. They're not

574
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,199
Speaker 1: gonna find you still got to make that anywhere there.

575
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 1: You had a lot of guys open here, guys you

576
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 1: didn't get it there, Okay, just because I watched my

577
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,680
Speaker 1: team not able to execute easy plays offensively and justin field,

578
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 1: any play, No, well, no, we run the ball. Okay,

579
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,440
Speaker 1: sometimes we run the ball step to Breeze Hall every

580
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 1: once in a while and that works. By the way,

581
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 1: you want to talk about the reviews of that guy

582
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: anonymous sources in terms of well he's gone by the time,

583
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 1: how much that is we we want to have no

584
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: market and we really want to deflate it versus what

585
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: they really feel about the game. No, look, Breesce Hall

586
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,199
Speaker 1: is gonna be traded by the deadline. Sure, But I mean,

587
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,479
Speaker 1: but the Steelers, it's it's none of No things they

588
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: do are great or even above league average. But again,

589
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 1: I don't have to believe they're the beneficiaries of bad

590
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 1: football that Burrow got hurt. The Browns are the Browns,

591
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,919
Speaker 1: and the Ravens went from this is the best Ravens

592
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: roster we've ever seen to Hey, they're going to be

593
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,399
Speaker 1: competing for the number one overall picking the draft like

594
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: it's just bad. And I get that they're for that.

595
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 1: That's great. You're four one schedule for the walk around here,

596
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: tell me you're good because you're not right. You're not

597
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,720
Speaker 1: You're not. What's just strength the schedule four fifty Yeah, okay,

598
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: but you take care of business, dude. Do I believe

599
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: in them in January? No, we're not talking about January.

600
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 1: Yes we are. No, you are? Are you good because

601
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 1: you want to right? You're the Steelers. No, you're not

602
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: good for anything. You're not good for If you were

603
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: in the top twenty five in college football, you would

604
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,719
Speaker 1: move down because, yeah, your wins aren't that impressive. They

605
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: were just going down and dingn't yet. But the top

606
00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: twenty five, those people throw darts out on board, DipEd up, down, down,

607
00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 1: pick numbers out of a hat. Yeah, this should be

608
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 1: number twelve this week. We've seen this as Steelers are

609
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 1: not looked icy. Hot Bowl is great. It's gonna be fun.

610
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 2: I heard it.

611
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I hope there's fantasy points. I don't

612
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 1: think there will be, but I hope there's forty three

613
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 1: and a half is the over under. But the Steelers

614
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 1: are gonna win again, and it's gonna be all. The

615
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 1: Steelers are five one, I'm gonna be They're terrible. They

616
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: are terrible. I feel like like in uh A'MI Dais

617
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,120
Speaker 1: When Salieri's like, I'm a day All. That's a bad example,

618
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 1: because IAmA DAAs is a genius. But I feel like,

619
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: you know, don't don't you all, don't you let Kathy Bates.

620
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 1: Don't you all have amnesia? He didn't get out of

621
00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 1: the cocka dudey car watching the same thing I'm watching.

622
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: The Steelers are just not good man, They're not no well,

623
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 1: I mean, jesty is what's kind of got me off fine,

624
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh now, he's like, I don't know

625
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 1: why the other teams are making move Yeah, you know what,

626
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,959
Speaker 1: you got more wins than the Jets, Dude, everybody has,

627
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 1: you know what. But in terms of the thing with

628
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: Andrew Berry, he said the quiet part out loud. I

629
00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 1: like that he put his name on because it did

630
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 1: make no sense. Hey, it's our opening day, guy, Let's

631
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 1: trade him in division now, if you could tell me

632
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,480
Speaker 1: legitimately they got no other team with all of the

633
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 1: quarterbacks that have been that have gotten hurt or have

634
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: proven that they suck, that no other team showed the

635
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: remote interest in Joe Flackham and why you didn't go

636
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: get somebody Else's really beyond me. Yeah, but I think

637
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: it's those other quarterbacks, but it's but it's Tomless Tomlin

638
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: and he gives us gifts. That's what he does. Yeah,

639
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 1: he's feeling chasty. I'm like, you know, you don't your

640
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 1: team is not good? How chesty was he last year

641
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 1: middle of seed Russell Wilson. I knew what I'm talking about. Oh,

642
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: very quiet. That's why I make a lot of money.

643
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 1: When Russell Wilson did nothing and you had to jettison

644
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: the guy. But he was your guy, right always, He's

645
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 1: my guy. This is why I do what I do.

646
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: And yeah, okay, well what happened by Tom and all

647
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,440
Speaker 1: of a sudden the Steelers are not these They're no good.

648
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: They're no good. They're gonna lose Thursday. They're not good. Okay, hey,

649
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: i'd be up for that. I can tell you what

650
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: there was wearing no clothes. I would tell you that. Wow.

651
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 4: Ye.

652
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: Usually he's got new clothes time, not for what's trending

653
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: in the wide world of points. He made him nude

654
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 1: From a guy who's been called the Emperor of Fox

655
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: Sports Radio, ow huh. He often walks around with no

656
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 1: clothes on, telling everybody, don't you like what I'm wearing.

657
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: It's Steve Disager and a Laurel wreath on my head.

658
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 1: Actually done this Laurel and Hardy handshake.

659
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, Laurel and Hardy kind of describes the show. Yeaes

660
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 4: Dodgers are leading five to one at Milwaukee, going to

661
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 4: the bottom of the eighth inning, trying to go up

662
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,240
Speaker 4: two games to none in the National League Championship Series.

663
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 4: The Dodgers starting pitching continues to be phenomenal the last

664
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 4: two and a half months, but specifically the past week

665
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 4: these last three starts Yamamota tonight, Snell last night, and

666
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 4: in last week's clincher against the Phillies. Glass now the

667
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:49,080
Speaker 4: la starting pitchers. The batting average against them is ninety

668
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 4: five in these last three starts, and the team era

669
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 4: in this postseason so far for the starting pitchers, I

670
00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 4: should say one point six to zero. Yoshinobu Yamamoto allowed

671
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 4: a home run on his first pitch tonight at Milwaukee

672
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 4: to the Brewers' leadoff man Jackson Curio. Since then, Milwaukee's

673
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 4: offense is two for twenty four Yamamoto with seven innings,

674
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 4: five strikeouts eighty nine pitches thrown. The Dodgers If they

675
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 4: win tonight, that would mean two road victories to start

676
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 4: the LCS, just as in the American League Championship Series,

677
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 4: Seattle began with two road victories in Toronto. This has

678
00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 4: only happened one other time. Nineteen seventy was the last

679
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 4: time that the road team in each league won the

680
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 4: first two games in the League Championship Series to start

681
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 4: things out. And back then it was just a best

682
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 4: of five and LCS was a new thing, and up

683
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,000
Speaker 4: until the late sixties, there were no divisions. There were

684
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 4: no playoffs at all. You just finished first in the

685
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 4: league went straight to the World Series.

686
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: I don't like this new fangled League Championship Series that

687
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: they have. Why should I have to play another series

688
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 1: when I have the best record in the National League.

689
00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 1: The sounds actually like Larry King for years?

690
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:00,040
Speaker 4: What is this?

691
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: This lcsd at playoffs? It's the playoffs, wayoffs. Why do

692
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: we have to play a team from the junior circuit?

693
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 1: We should just be the champions already.

694
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 4: We had quite a pitching matchup with the starters tonight.

695
00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 4: Yamamoto had the best ERA on the road in the

696
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,959
Speaker 4: regular season of any qualified starting pitcher. Milwaukee's as Freddie

697
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 4: Peralta had the best home era among qualified starters, and

698
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 4: it was one point seven to seven at home for

699
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 4: the season. He gave up two home runs in his

700
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 4: five and two thirds, a solo shot to ta Oscar Hernandez,

701
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 4: who's up to four homers this postseason. Dodger record is

702
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 4: eight Corey Seeger for a postseason. By the way, Max

703
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 4: Mountsey did set a Dodger record career postseason homers. He

704
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 4: hit one out to center, a solo shot. That's fourteen

705
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 4: postseason home runs for him as a Dodger, passing Seeger

706
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 4: and Justin Turner who had thirteen. And by the way,

707
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 4: the TV ratings have been great for the baseball postseason.

708
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 4: The Dodgers clincher, which was a three PM game in

709
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 4: La last week against the Phillies five point six million people,

710
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,240
Speaker 4: and then the Brewers clincher at home five and a

711
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 4: half million viewers. And then we had the opener of

712
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:12,240
Speaker 4: Seattle's win at Toronto this week over five million viewers

713
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 4: plus another five mill or so in Canada, and what

714
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,280
Speaker 4: you called the greatest game of the season, that clincher

715
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 4: against the Tigers for the Seattle Mariners Friday night on

716
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 4: Fox TV. The extra inning game eight point six million viewers.

717
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 4: In other words, about the same TV audience that the

718
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 4: Oklahoma Texas football game had the next day, and that

719
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 4: was by far the highest rated college football game on Saturday.

720
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 1: And no one watched Young Sheldon on Friday night. No

721
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:41,840
Speaker 1: one watched That. Been a while since we brought that

722
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 1: up on the show. Just for the record.

723
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,879
Speaker 4: The Alcs off tonight. Mariners lead two games to none

724
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 4: against Toronto. Game three is in Seattle Wednesday night on

725
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 4: FS one. Among the eight NHL games, Montreal and overtime

726
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 4: beat Seattle, Washington and overtime beat Tampa Bay. The Dallas

727
00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:00,200
Speaker 4: Mavericks gave coach Jason Kidd a multi year extension, and

728
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 4: Yukon is preseason number one on the women's basketball preseason

729
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,560

740
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,919
Speaker 1: Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show with My best Friend

741
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:41,080
Speaker 1: Mike Harmon. Yeah. Update from the NLCS game. Two Dodgers

742
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,560
Speaker 1: lead at five to one. They have runners at second

743
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 1: and third with nobody out of bat in the top

744
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,719
Speaker 1: of the ninth inning. The big news is, according to

745
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 1: reports from the game, Yoshinoba Yamamoto will start the ninth

746
00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,400
Speaker 1: inning and if he runs into trouble then it'll be

747
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 1: Alex Vessia most likely. But we could see a complete

748
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 1: game in them playoffs, a complete game. No might cry. Also,

749
00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:09,279
Speaker 1: Freddy Freeman just took the second like base it back

750
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 1: up the box right. Betts goes to third and Freeman

751
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,400
Speaker 1: hustling gets all the way to second and then does

752
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 1: his dance in the direction of the center fielder, who

753
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 1: lazily got to the ball like. He didn't turn back

754
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 1: to the dugout like they normally do. He did the

755
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:27,400
Speaker 1: full wiggle dance, dude, in the direction of the center fielder.

756
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,360
Speaker 1: When you hit a walk off Grand Slam in the

757
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 1: World Series, you can do what you want. Yeah, I

758
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,800
Speaker 1: think I think they didn't wear it at some point

759
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:36,600

810
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,840
Speaker 1: incredible weekend in college football, highlighted with James Franklin getting

811
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 1: fired by Penn State. Right, you fired James Northwes or

812
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 1: what James got rid of? Love Smith and Illinois? Yeah,

813
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 1: DoD Frost and Nebraska. But now Franklin. Yeah, but Benn State.

814
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: It's three if I lose fran Brown, who gave a

815
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 1: craptastic answer about the Penn State job, Well, I'm here.

816
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 1: I don't know why you would ask me that I'm here.

817
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,239
Speaker 1: I'm this is what I'm gonna focused on this week.

818
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: If I'm here like, oh, he sounded like Richard Daily

819
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,759
Speaker 1: back in the day when they were all sorts of

820
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 1: random deaths. If I if I lose Fran Brown to

821
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 1: Penn State because of you, We're gonna fight like. We're

822
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 1: gonna fight. This is the first good coach you've had

823
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 1: in like fifteen years. We're gonna fight like and you

824
00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 1: have no say We're gonna fight like. We are gonna

825
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,280
Speaker 1: absolutely fight coaching. Is he done? Since you're doesn't quarterback

826
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 1: went down, doesn't? Man? What are you gonna do? We

827
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:06,879
Speaker 1: beat Clems and everything was great. Of course, Angelly tears

828
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: is a killing. Yeah, But as soon as Angelly goes down,

829
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: I mean a whole lot of innovation. When you lose

830
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: the leading passer in the country, I think you're gonna

831
00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 1: take a step. You can take a hit a little bit.

832
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 1: You're gonna take a hit. That's not a step to

833
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: take a hill fell down a way take it. You're

834
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: like the guy that we always talk about in the

835
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,760
Speaker 1: horror movie that gives in the wheelchair going down the stairs.

836
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 1: Gonna take a hit, man, It's gonna happen when that

837
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: goes on you're gonna take it suddenly can't play football

838
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: there after when you lose it. It's not like it's

839
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: not like we have seventeen guys. It's not like we're

840
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,280
Speaker 1: Alabama where we have five five star guys a quarterback

841
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:44,319
Speaker 1: and it's just this guy's gonna play what the rest

842
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 1: of it? When you lose suddenly they stopped learning, you know,

843
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 1: how to play football. When you lose the star quarterback.

844
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,680
Speaker 1: I'm sorry it's gonna affect you, but I want to

845
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:55,240
Speaker 1: say that because this is where you see this stuff

846
00:40:55,320 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 1: now with the polls out now, and it is absolutely insane.

847
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 1: Nothing makes sense. Good teams that were good got bad,

848
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 1: now they're good again, like Alabama, Notre Dame Texas. I

849
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 1: don't know if the best teams are all that guy have.

850
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 1: If Ohio State and Miami are that good, you have Indiana,

851
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:14,719
Speaker 1: Texas Tech and Ole miss at the top. This Penn

852
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: State story. Two weeks ago they were playing an overtime

853
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: against Oregon and now James Franklin's fired. Man, this is

854
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: one of those years to just sit back and enjoy

855
00:41:25,040 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: the most bonkers and bananas college football season since two

856
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 1: thousand and seven when it was Missouri and Kansas and

857
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and West Virginia coming down to the end of

858
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,799
Speaker 1: the season, which was the most entertaining college football season

859
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 1: we've seen in the last twenty five years. This is

860
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: that kind of Just enjoy the bonkers and zaniness and

861
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 1: unpredictable aspect of this season because that's what college was.

862
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: But that's it, right, Signetti is now on that short

863
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,880
Speaker 1: list of great coaches. You look at Landing, You've got

864
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:55,560
Speaker 1: Ohio State still ruling the day, and Beck clearly he

865
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 1: made the right move. So all this is chaos. I

866
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 1: love every week, Love it man Positivity Tuesday, that's right.

867

00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 1: of minutes ago. I said, Oh, I got a great

871
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 1: trivia question for you guys. You're never gonna get it.

878
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:32,560

880
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 1: game since Jose Lima in two thousand and four for

881
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 1: the Dodger two thousand and four Lima. That was his

882
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 1: one year with the Dodgers. He went thirteen and five

883
00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: in the regular season with a four point oh seven ERA.

884
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,920
Speaker 1: It was Lima time, was Lima time, man, That's what

885
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:50,800
Speaker 1: he would like sing the national anthem? Right? Did he

886
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 1: do the national anthem in games?

887
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 4: Oh?

888
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 1: It was the best Jose Lima. I think he did.

889
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,640
Speaker 1: I think I want to remember that he did that.

890
00:42:56,760 --> 00:43:02,399
Speaker 1: He appeared in one game that postseason one game. Yeah. Yeah,

891
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 1: nine five hits, one walk, four strikeout, only four strikeouts

892
00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,320
Speaker 1: in that complete game. That's a lot of activity for

893
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 1: your defense to pick you up. Was that against the

894
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:18,399
Speaker 1: cheating cards? That was that was so just to talk

895
00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,399
Speaker 1: about this for a second, right, you want to talk

896
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:25,360
Speaker 1: about baseball history and absolute dominance. Yamamoto gave up a

897
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: home run first play of the game. That's it. Pitch, Yeah,

898
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,800
Speaker 1: first pitch, you know you got the home run for

899
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: Cherio leading off. That was it. That's all he allowed.

900
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,880
Speaker 1: One hundred and five pitches. I want to say for

901
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 1: Yamamoto in this game, number one, this is one way

902
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:43,400
Speaker 1: to make sure your bullpen doesn't screw things up for you.

903
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:45,359
Speaker 1: Don't go to it right, as long as you get

904
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,840
Speaker 1: games like this. But the big point is tell me

905
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 1: the last time in the baseball playoffs a team has

906
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,160
Speaker 1: had back to back games pitched like this. This dominant

907
00:43:57,760 --> 00:43:59,319
Speaker 1: in a playoff. I don't know that I could tell

908
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: you go back to Arizona, right, hil and Johnson do this,

909
00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: but this big a deal. One hit for Blake Snell

910
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,200
Speaker 1: in eight innings last night, right, and then Rama mad

911
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,680
Speaker 1: guy picked him off a complete game tonight. You had

912
00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:15,400
Speaker 1: starting pitchers seventeen innings, one run, one run, seventeen innings,

913
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 1: one run, four hits, four hits total between Snell and

914
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 1: Yamamoto in the first two games in seventeen innings. What's amazing. Also,

915
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 1: like we talked about the Brewers as a squad, right,

916
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 1: you only had two guys in the regular season with

917
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:31,240
Speaker 1: more than twenty home runs, and one of them barely

918
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: got there. And you talk about what they do on

919
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:37,719
Speaker 1: the base paths, how aggressive they are, gnats as they

920
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,279
Speaker 1: were called whatever, and Murphy joked about at a bunch

921
00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 1: on the pancakes, stuff out of the back pocket, all

922
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,040
Speaker 1: of that fun stuff. But if you're not on base,

923
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,760
Speaker 1: you can't cause problems for the pitcher. So bat at bats,

924
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:52,000
Speaker 1: we saw them chase out of the zone and Yamamoto

925
00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:55,040
Speaker 1: in the ninth was still free and easy, well past

926
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 1: one hundred pitches, right, So maybe more example for day

927
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 1: of Roberts. You could trust your guy to finish the job,

928
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 1: have someone up and doing the light toss and being

929
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,400
Speaker 1: ready to get get after that they need to. But

930
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,080
Speaker 1: the other thing for Yamamoto, and a lot was made

931
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:13,440
Speaker 1: of it coming into this game, is he appeared against

932
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:15,840
Speaker 1: Milwaukee in the regular season. You go back to a

933
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 1: game on July seventh, didn't get out of the first inning,

934
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: didn't get out of the first inning, five runs, allowed

935
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: three earns, four hits, two walks, and was chased that

936
00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 1: fast right when we talk about bad outings. And then

937
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:34,919
Speaker 1: you see the absolute gem tonight after that first pitch,

938
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 1: because you can feel it right. Dodgers has listened to

939
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,280
Speaker 1: the radio broadcast and and syncing it up and everything,

940
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:44,960
Speaker 1: and they were like, oh, because of what happened last

941
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,839
Speaker 1: time out that they just saw him, they scattered whatever.

942
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 1: And then you never look back like we watched it

943
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 1: just marveling at the location of pitches and and the

944
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,040
Speaker 1: way he moved moved the ball around the zone and

945
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,879
Speaker 1: had off had them off balance all night. There weren't

946
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 1: hard hit balls like that's the other part, right, A

947
00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of cannic horn kind of things.

948
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:08,839
Speaker 1: And you saw Andrew Vaughnett and the final at bat

949
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 1: waving at it, and you know, Yamamoto just smiling from

950
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:17,880
Speaker 1: here to ear. Just great, magnificent performance. Look, it's another

951
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:22,840
Speaker 1: absolute gem from Yamamoto. And the thing is is that

952
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,920
Speaker 1: the Brewers are pretty good, right, best rest record in

953
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,120
Speaker 1: the National League. This is not a This is not

954
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:32,560
Speaker 1: a team that hey won their way in. Was an

955
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 1: eighty three win team that won their way in the wildcard? No,

956
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,360
Speaker 1: But I'm saying it's like there's a difference between a

957
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 1: team that wins their way in as a wildcard, gets

958
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:42,960
Speaker 1: hot for for seven or eight games and then hey,

959
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 1: guess what, we're coming back to earth because we're playing

960
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 1: a team that's incredibly more talented than we are. Right,

961
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,279
Speaker 1: It's like if the you know, like obviously the Reds

962
00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 1: lost the Dodge, but like if the red snuck in

963
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:53,239
Speaker 1: and they get to this point and it's the Reds

964
00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 1: Dodgers in the NLCS, and the Dodgers come out with

965
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 1: a couple of games like this, you would say, Okay,

966
00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 1: I can expect that, because the Dodgers are a huge

967
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:03,600
Speaker 1: step in class up from the Reds. But this is

968
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 1: a really good lineup. This is a really good team.

969
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 1: They had their ace on the mound today, like this

970
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,040
Speaker 1: is a game they absolutely had to have it. Now

971
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 1: the NLCS is likely over. I mean, that's how impressive

972
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:15,839
Speaker 1: the Dodgers have been the first two games. These are

973
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:18,880
Speaker 1: two these are two gyms pitched against the team with

974
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,439
Speaker 1: the best record in the National League, and they look

975
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,719
Speaker 1: like they are just flailing at the ball. They don't

976
00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 1: have anything going on. Like the crowd gets excited when

977
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,759
Speaker 1: there was a two ball count. Oh, Henry come, it's

978
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,040
Speaker 1: a rally. It's like, wow, that's really desperate. When it's

979
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 1: two and one, Okay, Oh there's a pop up to short.

980
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:37,439
Speaker 1: Oh there's a there's a ground out to first place.

981
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,640
Speaker 1: Like that, I mean really, I don't know the last

982
00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 1: time you have seen back to back games pitch this

983
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,759
Speaker 1: dominant in the playoffs. Like I'm trying to think the

984
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 1: last team that happens. I don't know if it's Copax

985
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 1: and Drysdale. I don't know if it's the Mets in

986
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. I don't know if it's the the Shilling

987
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,239
Speaker 1: in Johnson in two thousand, in two thousand and one.

988
00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,480
Speaker 1: I mean, but you gotta go back. That's going back

989
00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,319
Speaker 1: to the nineties, like that you going back on that's

990
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 1: just weird. We're going back a long ways. But I

991
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 1: think we can forget about the postseason. It might be

992
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 1: the most dominant one two in the history of Major

993
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 1: League Baseball of these two games for the thirty games

994
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:11,840
Speaker 1: of a series. Yeah, first against Nlces, Like this is

995
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 1: out like whoa, whoa, whoa. But let's say it was, right.

996
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,320
Speaker 1: This is a Brewers team that swept the Dodgers in

997
00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: the regular season, right, six wins and what was it

998
00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 1: a ten or eleven day period? But we're also talking

999
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 1: about a Dodger squad that you didn't have a healthy

1000
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 1: pitching staff for much of it. And I mean, Yamamota

1001
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 1: was there and that was his worst outing of the

1002
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 1: year by far. And then you see what they do here,

1003
00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:38,879
Speaker 1: if my math is right, up to nothing in best

1004
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,719
Speaker 1: of seven's playoff history when you win both games on

1005
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:48,479
Speaker 1: the road twenty four and three. So opportunity doth knock

1006
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 1: for these Dodgers. And I see it already, and we

1007
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:53,239
Speaker 1: saw it going back to the fourth fifth inning. It's like, wow,

1008
00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:54,439
Speaker 1: it was always David gone.

1009
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 4: No.

1010
00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:57,760
Speaker 1: They won ninety seven games and now had the highest

1011
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,600
Speaker 1: run differential in Major League Baseball this year. But they're

1012
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 1: the little engine that could. Mike, Well, that's that's what's

1013
00:49:03,040 --> 00:49:04,920
Speaker 1: trying to take you telling me, I mean, this is

1014
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 1: this is a good frog, that's the thing. This is

1015
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:08,839
Speaker 1: a really good team. Again. Yeah, they had the most

1016
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,080
Speaker 1: wins in baseball. I know, it's it's a really good

1017
00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 1: team that suddenly they made look like a little league team.

1018
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 1: And now, honestly, but that's the thing. But Pat Pat Murphy,

1019
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:18,080
Speaker 1: like the whole thing was that's how we play station

1020
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 1: to station little ball. The only thing he got was

1021
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,239
Speaker 1: the home run from Cherio. Everything. Every every time they

1022
00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 1: show that, they show the maritors in the game and

1023
00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,759
Speaker 1: they show Murphy or someone we're in the hoodie that says,

1024
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 1: you know, built for fall. I'm like, yeah, no, no,

1025
00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:32,279
Speaker 1: you're not really not in this series, You're not You're

1026
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 1: not built for the fall. Wow, man, look build the fall.

1027
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:36,880
Speaker 3: Right.

1028
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 1: We've talked about these dominant pitching per elements, but it

1029
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:41,719
Speaker 1: all comes back to a guy not leaning into a

1030
00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 1: pitch and driving home the tying run. Do you want

1031
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:47,800
Speaker 1: to talk about the difference of a Major League Baseball

1032
00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:50,479
Speaker 1: season in twenty twenty five. We're gonna be talking about

1033
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 1: that play forever, but uh, this is this is how

1034
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,719
Speaker 1: heady of a performance we got from smelling Young Moto

1035
00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:01,279
Speaker 1: the last two nights, right is that? Now? My only

1036
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:05,000
Speaker 1: thought is, Okay, either the Dodgers are gonna get a

1037
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,120
Speaker 1: bounce in the World Series, because you know, can you

1038
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 1: pitch this well for another round of the playoffs? Or

1039
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 1: are they just gonna saw off bats and it's gonna

1040
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 1: be a sweep here and they're gonna sweep the Mariners.

1041
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,319
Speaker 1: That's where I'm at right now. Boy, they could get

1042
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 1: a bounce, but man, it could be a very boring

1043
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:23,480
Speaker 1: rest of the postseason where two more games Dodgers coming

1044
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:25,400
Speaker 1: home and they're done. Then it'd be a lot of

1045
00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 1: excitement Mariners Dodgers, but you look at the pitching matchups

1046
00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 1: for both teams, like, man, I gotta tell you, you know,

1047
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:33,960
Speaker 1: ball don't carry that well in Seattle. I mean, cal

1048
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,799
Speaker 1: rally finds a way. But oh boy, man, you really

1049
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,880
Speaker 1: want to face Snell and Yamamoto again and know by

1050
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: the way Otawani, who's gonna go in the next game?

1051
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:43,600
Speaker 1: Like that, that's that's the that's the pitching staff. You

1052
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 1: feel good about fit. Hey, maybe the Mariners just feel

1053
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 1: good about getting to the World Series. Beat beat the

1054
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 1: Blue Jays feel good. This is how dominant the Dodgers are. Now,

1055
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:54,759
Speaker 1: this is I mean these last two Mike, I mean

1056
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:58,080
Speaker 1: these these two games. It's been the Brewers have absolutely

1057
00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:01,759
Speaker 1: nothing nothing, No, they're not hitting the ball hard. Only

1058
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,359
Speaker 1: when Blake Snell came out of the game, he was like, hey,

1059
00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:07,000
Speaker 1: now we got something going on here. But that's just it.

1060
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,719
Speaker 1: That that's how quickly things can turn though, And and

1061
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 1: the door was open and he gave him the pitch

1062
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 1: to just look. Man, he would have had a nice

1063
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:17,040
Speaker 1: baseball shaped bruise, but he would have been a hero.

1064
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:18,879
Speaker 1: You know. He talked about to say that you would

1065
00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 1: have definitely won the game, you know, like, but well,

1066
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:23,680
Speaker 1: you would have tied it, and you would had bases loaded,

1067
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:26,320
Speaker 1: and if nothing else, you're now into the Dodger bullpen

1068
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 1: that much further.

1069
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:27,320
Speaker 2: You know.

1070
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,560
Speaker 1: I liked that they both talked about it. Uh, you know,

1071
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:31,200
Speaker 1: because really we're gonna look back and say that was

1072
00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:32,920
Speaker 1: the moment of the series with the Dodgers up to

1073
00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 1: Zip now going on. But like Murphy and Terang both

1074
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 1: talked about it, and Murphy said, you know, it's going

1075
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 1: against your instinct and and you know, you know, trying

1076
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:42,600
Speaker 1: to you know, protect his player a little bit. And

1077
00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:44,400
Speaker 1: Terran said, look, I gotta know. I mean, it was

1078
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,960
Speaker 1: just just instinct for me. And I'm like, I understand that.

1079
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:48,960
Speaker 1: And I'm like, okay, I get and I get Murphy

1080
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:49,800
Speaker 1: protecting his player.

1081
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:49,960
Speaker 4: Right.

1082
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 1: He also had the kid guards on either side. Yeah, no,

1083
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:55,760
Speaker 1: there was There was gonna be no pushback on anything

1084
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:57,640
Speaker 1: you're saying. You're not gonna tell me what you just said,

1085
00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 1: whatever you wanted, because he had those kids. Don't do

1086
00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:01,560
Speaker 1: in front of my kids. You're not gonna say I

1087
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:03,960
Speaker 1: suck in front of my kids. Don't do that. How

1088
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:05,839
Speaker 1: many kids as Murphy bring to the post conference here

1089
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 1: at fourteen. Hey, here's everybody, here's everybody. That's all these kids.

1090
00:52:09,719 --> 00:52:11,279
Speaker 1: You can't get mad at me, right, these are all

1091
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 1: bads kids. But I'm sorry, but yeah, I get that,

1092
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:16,920
Speaker 1: and I get what Murphy's trying to do and teruring

1093
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,840
Speaker 1: try to own a little bit. But I'm like, I'm sorry,

1094
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 1: but you have to know going up there, if the

1095
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:25,359
Speaker 1: pitch is wide, if the pitch you have to get

1096
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 1: to first base. I understand your instinct, right. Your instinct

1097
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:30,200
Speaker 1: also can be to swing at a high pitch, but

1098
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,160
Speaker 1: you gotta lay off it. Right. The instinct can also

1099
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:33,560
Speaker 1: be I want to swing it a ball in the dirt,

1100
00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 1: but you gotta lay off it. It's not like this

1101
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 1: is an instinct that you absolutely have to do it. Yes,

1102
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:40,440
Speaker 1: you want to get out of the way, but you know,

1103
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,919
Speaker 1: in this situation, I gotta get hit. I gotta stay

1104
00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 1: in because this is the world this is the NLCS,

1105
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:48,640
Speaker 1: this is our chance at the World Series. And yet

1106
00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:50,360
Speaker 1: to right, look, it sucked and I did it. And

1107
00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 1: you know, yes, stepping up for your guys one thing,

1108
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,799
Speaker 1: but no, it's the same thing. It's the same thing

1109
00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:59,359
Speaker 1: as Hey, I have to make sure that when I'm

1110
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:01,399
Speaker 1: batting if I see a pitch that I can't bunt,

1111
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 1: I gotta pull the back back instead of trying to

1112
00:53:03,120 --> 00:53:06,680
Speaker 1: lay it down. All these things you have to sometimes

1113
00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:09,799
Speaker 1: resist your your instincts. This is what's part of being

1114
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:12,480
Speaker 1: a pro athlete. It's not just baseball, it's football to it.

1115
00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 1: I think I can get the ball in this tight window.

1116
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:17,239
Speaker 1: Resist that instinct if you're really me, because that's gonna

1117
00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:19,320
Speaker 1: be an interception, right And and you know lots of

1118
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:22,120
Speaker 1: quarterbacks can't do that. But that's a case where you know,

1119
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:24,400
Speaker 1: going up there, bases loaded, I have to get to

1120
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:26,520
Speaker 1: first base. And if I get a pitch and he

1121
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,720
Speaker 1: just walked a guy right, so you know he's wild

1122
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 1: around the plate. If I see it a point here,

1123
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 1: I gotta make sure I get down to first base again. Yeah,

1124
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:35,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna go back and say that's the biggest play

1125
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:38,239
Speaker 1: of this think about it. For as dominant as pitching is,

1126
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 1: that's a play that will stand as a part of

1127
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: the highlight reel forever that he didn't take one for

1128
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:50,839
Speaker 1: the team. Told that as a kid, and they get

1129
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 1: mad at you nowadays if you say, look you got

1130
00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:57,279
Speaker 1: you gotta stand in mister, Buttermaker, I really don't guess Stein.

1131
00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 1: Come on, you want to win, don't you. You have,

1132
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 1: a mister Buttermaker, really, it really hurt the last time

1133
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 1: I got hit. Ah, you'll be fine. Stein, get up

1134
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:08,160
Speaker 1: the pain, pains, memories and forever let's go. I really

1135
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,719
Speaker 1: the way Stein discuses, no, mister Buttermaker, I really don't

1136
00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,120
Speaker 1: want to. I really don't want to get you. Gotta

1137
00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:15,680
Speaker 1: wear it, Ah, Stein, you'll be Come on, just get

1138
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 1: up there,
