The first three batters of the game 17 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: for the Chicago White Sox as we are getting ready 18 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: for history in Major League Baseball. Clayton Kershaw about to 19 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: take the mound for the Dodgers, three strikeouts away from 20 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: the three thousand mark, which again, maybe we'll see one 21 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: more time in our lives if Chris Sale gets there. 22 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: But we're gonna see it maybe tonight, and I'm surprised. 23 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: It's it's the the odds are so low. It's it's 24 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: eleven to one that he gets in the first inning. 25 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: I said, okay, three striking. He's not striking everybody out anymore, 26 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: but still eleven to one for three strikes us in 27 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: the first inning. 28 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 3: It's still audacious. 29 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 4: I mean, you look at the uh the immaculate inning 30 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 4: is five hundred to one, So if you really want to. 31 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 3: That's all it is. 32 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 1: I mean, there's how how how many immaculate innings in 33 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: the history of the game of their bit it's only five. 34 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: I feel like they're certain, you know what Vegas. 35 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 3: Hey, I'm sorry, you're scared. 36 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: Vegas is now scared because certain things that should be 37 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 1: much longer odds, It should be much more gambler friendly. 38 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,359 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, we're gonna set it lower because you 39 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: know we got protection. No, you know, you're making enough 40 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: bleeping money. There's new casinos that go up every single 41 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: day in Vegas. Almost cursed right there. No, you get 42 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: you can make the odds a little bit longer on 43 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: something like that to make it actually worth the bet. 44 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: Like Kershaw's striking out the first three. Why it should 45 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: be fifty to one? Why that he strikes out? Because 46 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: Kershaw is not a strikeout pitcher like he was anymore. 47 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: And even though it is the White Sox striking, he 48 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: is averaging about five a game. Okay, striking out the 49 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: first for anybody, striking out the first three batters should 50 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: be a long odds bet. But oh no, no, eleven 51 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: to one. It's ridiculous. I'm calling out Vegas for the 52 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: way I'm calling out. 53 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 4: We'll have to go into what what those two odds are. 54 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 4: I'll get get in touch with all our Vegas table 55 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 4: they head out on their sojourns ahead of the football season, 56 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 4: getting some time in. But I mean, Kershaw is still 57 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 4: his strikeout rate, you know, per nine is still strong. 58 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 4: What is he at thirty? How many strikeouts in his 59 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 4: thirty nineties to twenty nine strikeouts in thirty eight innings? 60 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 4: A little lower rate than normal, but you know for 61 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 4: his career he's still better than one per inning. 62 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, but this, okay, this is not twenty fifteen Clayton Kershaw. 63 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: This is a five player. This is the bet is tonight. 64 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: The bet is not a We can count some stuff 65 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: from earlier. 66 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 4: One bet back in the day, it probably would have 67 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 4: been seven and a half to one. 68 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 3: Come on, it should be it should be at least 69 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 3: fifty to one. 70 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, so three or more strikeouts and well, it's fuzzy 71 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 4: math that you're just throwing throwing numbers at a wayside 72 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 4: what I'm saying, what I don't want to say. 73 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: It should be a million to one. I mean, although 74 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: a million, I mean for the first ree Oh, we 75 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: got to protect ourselves. But you sounded like Walt when 76 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: you were doing your whole thing. It's like, well, well, 77 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, if it was really that long, then I 78 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: bet it. Well, it's like, well, if it's such a 79 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: sure thing taken at the five hundred. 80 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 4: To one for the immaculate inning, Yeah, all right, three 81 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 4: plus strikeouts on the game ninety four percent implied rate 82 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 4: at minus sixteen hundred four plus strikeouts minus three point 83 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 4: thirty that is a seventy six percent likelihood. Six plus 84 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 4: is plus one sixty is over. Under for the game 85 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 4: is at four and a half. 86 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sorry your the game is four and a half, okay, 87 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: but but I'm gonna eleven to one that he strikes 88 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: out the first three. 89 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 4: Come on, Jason, I do realize the only thing that 90 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 4: matters right now is this game starting at seven ten 91 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 4: on the dot. 92 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, well he gets sick control that no, watch out. 93 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 3: He choked people out.

Guatemala was able to keep 202 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: a lot of pressure on. They scored to make it interesting. 203 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:23,959 Speaker 3: But had one disallowed. 204 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, clearly offside dodge. Yeah, two players off sure, 205 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 4: but hey, well that was tough. Unfortunately, they have the 206 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 4: eye in the sky that's gonna catch you as opposed 207 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 4: to the ars trying to hustle up and down on 208 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 4: a league weekend. But after an awful beginning to the 209 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 4: Gold Cup for the United States, where the the dedication 210 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 4: of star players like Christian Polistic and Robinson and guys 211 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 4: were all out there. 212 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 3: Hey are you know? 213 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 4: Why are they not playing?

So you know, 230 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: we kind of threw that out there to the players 231 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: who we've said this, the players that the up and 232 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: coming stars have been anointed stars way too early, uh 233 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: in in in their careers. I haven't done anything. 234 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 3: But yet, you know, you. 235 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: See Polistic and Robinson and all these players, and and 236 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: and and even when you want to get even closer 237 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: to Raina and his parents getting involved with the team, 238 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 1: where hey, you're not you haven't done anything to be entitled. 239 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: And so he put his foot down and said, you're 240 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: not entitled. You don't run this team. I run this team. 241 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 3: I'm going in with these guys. 242 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 1: And clearly he's still got He's got a couple of 243 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: really good players there that have started to get some publicity. 244 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: Now you know, Luna a terrific Tilman the other night, 245 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: and you see how they're gritty, they stick together, they 246 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: have a lot more fight like. 247 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 3: Seeing this team play. 248 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 4: I see the change that I saw when the women's 249 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 4: team came back with the triplets, right with the try 250 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 4: and when all of a sudden, we said, hey, when 251 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,199 Speaker 4: the three scorers are healthy, watch out. This is what 252 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 4: the team's gonna be built on the next ten years. 253 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 4: They show up for the Olympics and all of a sudden, 254 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 4: US is the big bad bully on the block again, right, 255 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 4: I see that with this version of the United States team, 256 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 4: where hey, they're gritty, they fight, They have talented players 257 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 4: that are now getting a chance because these other entitled 258 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 4: players are not there anymore.

Well, the old coaching back and forth 287 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 4: and fighting about direction, right, you had different agendas. You 288 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 4: mentioned the stuff with Rain, I mean that smelled like 289 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 4: any Ayso stuff you would have had or stuff you 290 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 4: would have dealt with with your daughter's team when you 291 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,359 Speaker 4: were coaching, you know, parents getting involved in the infighting 292 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 4: that you had, so all of that got washed out 293 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 4: and some of it. Look at look at the effusive 294 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 4: praise for the guys that are there and that are performing, 295 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 4: Like he's gonna show you your flowers, but he's also 296 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 4: not gonna kiss your ass, right, So it's that nice blend. 297 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 4: You earn his respect, you earn your pt and if anything, 298 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 4: you get deeper out of this.

If they play Mexico, they've 300 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 4: lost them five times in the finals, So you got 301 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 4: that hanging out in the balance, but you get a 302 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 4: new look, energized squad. I'm not a fan of parking 303 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 4: the bus. I got a two nil lead, I'm gonna 304 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 4: keep attacking. They got out shot twenty to twelve of 305 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 4: the game, including absolutely iterated the final. You know, eighteen 306 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 4: to twenty minutes of the first half if you go 307 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 4: into the raw stats and just flow of the game, 308 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 4: but enough to make it hold up. So yeah, positive 309 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 4: direction from a squad that we've wrung our hands about 310 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 4: for what going on three plus decades. 311 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: Exit out about a Fresca exit swollen down the Jason 312 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: Smith Show with my best friend in Mi car.

Well, Clayton Kershaw gets out 356 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 4: of the first inning for the Dodgers, not unscathed, gives 357 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 4: up a run, but Michael confordo with a leaping grab. 358 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 3: And I want to say this because he didn't really have. 359 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 4: To leave, but he was trying to figure out the angle, right, 360 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 4: I need a reverse angle. 361 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 3: On that as to where he was relative to the wall. 362 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 1: He didn't need to jump, but you know the left 363 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: field wall and Dodger Stadium, it's right at the partition 364 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: where it goes from. 365 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 4: The high wall to the low wall. Probably would have 366 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 4: been a home run if he doesn't grab it. So 367 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 4: another I mean it was a foot away and he saves, 368 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 4: the ending would have been for nothing. White Sox with 369 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 4: the lead, and you know, that's probably gonna be a 370 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 4: short night for Kershaw as he chases three thousand, but 371 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 4: the Dodgers get out of it. Kershaw gets out of 372 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 4: the first inning down one nothing to the White Sox 373 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 4: and look just to you know, seeing Clayton Kershaw pitches 374 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 4: I have for the you know, the better part the 375 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 4: last fifteen years. I think he looks like he needs 376 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 4: to settle down. You're coming into this first inning. He 377 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,360 Speaker 4: just looks a little bit jumpy. And see he knows 378 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 4: the moment, obviously, it's a little bit more like it 379 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 4: looks like he needs a little bit more body control. 380 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 3: He was up in the zone a lot. He is, Yeah, 381 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 3: he was. 382 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: He was very erratic in the first inning. So I 383 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: think he just he needed that first inning. And now 384 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: it probably likely because it's Kershaw, he will calm down 385 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: and be a much different pitcher here going out for 386 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: the second inning. You come out, it's all you know, 387 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,719 Speaker 1: the Dodgers, all the television cameras are following him out. 388 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 1: He's on the field at six twenty three and here 389 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: he is and warming up and there's seven cameras right 390 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 1: next to him while he's throwing his last warm up pitch, like, okay, 391 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 1: you got to get the game to start. Sometimes you 392 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: get that extra adrenaline and sometimes it works for you 393 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: get a couple extra miles hour on your fastball. But 394 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: sometimes it has the opposite of effect, where Okay, I'm 395 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: really my thoughts are all over and I'm sure he 396 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: is taking his time in the dugout. He will be 397 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: a different pitcher, a little bit more control in the 398 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: second inning. 399 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 4: Twenty nine pitches in the first, nineteen for strikes, three hits, 400 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 4: allowed the earned run, and now the Dodgers at the plate. 401 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 4: But you know, as I said, Canford it with the 402 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,360 Speaker 4: big catch, A big day for the ex Mets as 403 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 4: we were talking about, with a couple of All Star 404 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 4: announcements that really did not make you happy. But this 405 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 4: is history, man, We're probably not gonna see this again. 406 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 4: Zach Granky's close if he wants to come out of retirement. 407 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 4: But other than that, he got a long, long way. 408 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,919 Speaker 4: I hear people going, oh, this guy's gonna get then 409 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 4: I'm like, he's got three hundred strikeouts, he's pitched a year. 410 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 3: And a half, Like, what are we doing. 411 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, so again, we'll keep you update, usually due to 412 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 1: stuff after Otani does something, but kershaw again three strikeouts 413 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: away from three thousand of the Dodgers back in the 414 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 1: bottom of the first inning. Meanwhile, I'd always say I 415 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 1: could be an NBA insider. 416 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 3: I can do all that declaring that a long time. Yeah, 417 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 3: Now I think the. 418 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: Better job for me now in my fifties, Like I'd 419 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: rather be a consultant, far less work, because sounds like 420 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 1: the greatest gig. Like you show up, you have lunch, 421 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: you tell people what you think, and you leave. You're 422 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: kind of like the wolf in pulp fiction. 423 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, you show up, you solve a problem, then you 424 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 4: get the girl, and you get back in your fastcar 425 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 4: and drive away. 426 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 3: Here's here's my. 427 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: One thing about pulp fiction.

Now you 435 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: go from whatever night it was before at nine in 436 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 1: the morning, even when I was in my overnight. 437 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 4: After party like by six, I'm like, okay, guys, Jason, 438 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 4: there's there's things you can you can maybe ingest at 439 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 4: a party, No, I know, to keep things going. 440 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 3: But it's part of the largest the legend of him.

He's got a 479 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: really good defensive system. Offensively, what he likes to do 480 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: fits with what the Knicks want to do. He is 481 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: a perfect choice.

When the biggest name to 842 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: change teams is Miles Turner, I mean, come on, man, 843 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:08,879 Speaker 1: I get look, it's a big story from a day 844 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,760 Speaker 1: ago because Turner plays in a Damian Lillard and Yannis. 845 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 4: But when you say free agency is telling me, oh, 846 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,400 Speaker 4: it's fantastic, dude. The biggest name has been Miles Turner. 847 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 4: And unless there's a trade. 848 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 1: Now, trades are different because the trade we talked about 849 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,720 Speaker 1: the trade season, we're gonna wind up seeing some stuff 850 00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: get loosened up. 851 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 4: But the free agency season, it's just been okay. This 852 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 4: is like the NBNBA fregency has been the. 853 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: Hype and the execution of the Fourth of July Hot 854 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 1: Dog eating Contest without Joey Chestnut, Like, was it like that? 855 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 3: No, Joey Chestnut, Lads, what are we going?

Some years it's not. 858 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 1: No, it's not been a great There's been some solid moves, 859 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:48,920 Speaker 1: but there's been nothing so far that I can sit 860 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: there and say, oh wow, this is cutting across from 861 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: coast to coast. You can't make Miles Turner happen more 862 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 1: than it should. You gotta have a little bit of 863 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 1: proportion to it. But all I mean, all of this, 864 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 1: look at what's happening. No, no, just you know, don't 865 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: try to convince me on stuff that's not This has 866 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: been just a start for free agency. So no one's 867 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: taken all the bait of going all in and overpaying 868 00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 1: for guys that they should have shouldn't overpay for.

And if I have the rights, I'm 879 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 3: selling the hell out of it. 880 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,839 Speaker 4: I mean, how did a former colleague if I used 881 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,120 Speaker 4: to start a show, this is the best fifteen minutes 882 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 4: you're ever gonna hear. All right, what about the next 883 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 4: fifteen minutes? But we'll get to that when we get 884 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 4: to that.

I mean, we're over hyping the fact 893 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 3: that DeAndre Eaton was once upon a time. 894 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 4: I now look, now, the thing is is that there 895 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 4: are moves that play into bigger things, because coming up 896 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:30,439 Speaker 4: in a few minutes, why the DeAndre eight move plays 897 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 4: into something so much bigger for the Lakers in the NBA, 898 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 4: just like we said, look the Miles Turner move, you know, 899 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,919 Speaker 4: stretching out the salary for Damian Lillard and now when 900 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 4: is he gonna play again? And now what about Giannis? Like, okay, 901 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 4: the honest part of it gets big, but this part, okay, 902 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 4: well the little part was big too though, because it 903 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 4: showed once again NBA contracts.

Coming up in 921 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 4: a second. 922 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:47,359 Speaker 3: That's a good one. 923 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 1: We just saw absolute history in Major League baseball. Clayton 924 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:56,800 Speaker 1: Kershaw gets strikeout number three thousand, the final out of 925 00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 1: the sixth inning. Strikes out Vinnie Capra looking at quintessential. 926 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 1: Here comes outside part of the plate, you know, the 927 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,320 Speaker 1: curve that he's thrown his entire career. Here comes and 928 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 1: right on the outside part of the plate, strikeout looking 929 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: Dave Roberts is out of the dugout. There was about 930 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: a five or six minute pause of the game where 931 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:19,240 Speaker 1: Kershaw got congratulations from his teammates. He waved to the crowd, 932 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,440 Speaker 1: the twentieth person in Major League baseball history to get 933 00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: to three thousand strikeouts we sought just moments ago. 934 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:29,719 Speaker 4: And exactly the way Kershaw would have wanted it, as 935 00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 4: in it ended an inning, so it was a natural 936 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,800 Speaker 4: pause in the game to have the celebration, the doffing 937 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,319 Speaker 4: of the cap whatever. It wasn't a hey, I've got 938 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 4: a runner on second that I still need to contend with. Everybody, 939 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 4: sit down and shut up. I want to continue going 940 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 4: to work. No, it was his one hundredth pitch of 941 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 4: the night, Dave Roberts. The number of cutaways they did, 942 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 4: they might as well have done a picture and picture 943 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 4: for that half of the inning, because it became me, 944 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:56,839 Speaker 4: I don't really want to go get him. I want 945 00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:00,359 Speaker 4: to give him every opportunity to get this milestone. Want 946 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 4: to be I mean, we've seen Dave so many times 947 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,319 Speaker 4: with a young pitcher and some of the veterans where 948 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,399 Speaker 4: it's like, damnit, he's got a no hitter, but he's 949 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 4: at eighty five eighty seven pitches. We want to win 950 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,240 Speaker 4: this game. And that's where you're kind of at with Kershaw. 951 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,400 Speaker 4: Here you get the big throwout. We'll keep an eye 952 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,399 Speaker 4: on Monthcie, but you got that big throwout of an 953 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 4: attempted steeler for the second out. So it's like, all right, 954 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 4: can we get him through this inning and give him 955 00:42:23,239 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 4: one more shot and keep the lead where it is 956 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 4: for the White Sox and Kershaw gets capra journeying in 957 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 4: hitting a buck twenty eight. This will be his big 958 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 4: moment because forever he'll be able to sign photos as 959 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 4: the guy that was the three thousandth victim. Yeah, Clayton Kershaw, 960 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 4: Can I see that look on you disagreeing with the 961 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 4: call on the outside part of the play. 962 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 3: Can we sign that for me? 963 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 5: Yeah? 964 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 4: Sure, no problem, No, no, no, it's just gonna be 965 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 4: the Kershaw fist bumped. That'll be fifty dollars. I mean 966 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 4: just think about it, like like he gets it. Obviously, 967 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 4: you want it to be in a game where the 968 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 4: Dodgers wanted to be a game where they're winning, where 969 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 4: it's you know, they're in control of this, but they're 970 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 4: losing four to the White Sox. But individually for Kershaw 971 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 4: again his last batter of the game, pitch number one 972 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 4: hundred on his signature pitch to end the inning. 973 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 1: I mean, all the poetry, that's exactly how you would 974 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:14,399 Speaker 1: want to line it up. The only way is better 975 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 1: is if hey, it's the final out of the game, 976 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: the ninth inning, the dog just win. It's a perfect 977 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,880 Speaker 1: game and they win. It won nothing, all right, Billy 978 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: Chapel alone. You get most of it here. Hey, John 979 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,839 Speaker 1: c Riley could have caught that. And and oh, by 980 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 1: the way, hey, I gotta say this phenomenal job of 981 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,360 Speaker 1: Will Smith framing that pitch. 982 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:35,760 Speaker 3: Was dicey. 983 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 1: That was not something that was Hey, you could see 984 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 1: it right away. This was on the outside corner, right 985 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:42,600 Speaker 1: on the edge of the box and it was a 986 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 1: called strike three. I want to go back to var 987 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 1: uh see you know was it? You know if we 988 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 1: overlay it. 989 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:52,400 Speaker 3: No all in you knew me, maybe you'd have a 990 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 3: little bit of the zone. And that's where it was. 991 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 4: I got to think really frustrating for Kershaw with his 992 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 4: placement of pitches all day long. Of you, we're probably 993 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 4: going to get a generous side to side if you 994 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 4: were working it. He was leaving everything over the middle 995 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 4: to get hit and hit hard, like the old rule 996 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 4: of thumb, though, hit them where they ain't, which the 997 00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 4: White Sox, while they do have the four to two 998 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 4: lead based on the balls put into play. 999 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 3: Could have been a lot worse. 1000 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 4: So the fact that you're still within striking distance right now, 1001 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:24,919 Speaker 4: one out runners on first and third year bottom of six. 1002 00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,280 Speaker 4: But you know, you also want to do it at home, 1003 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 4: and you start looking at the schedule ahead. I guess 1004 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 4: you would add another start against the Brewers at home 1005 00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 4: before the hit the next road trip. 1006 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: But you also don't want it hanging in the balance. 1007 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: Want to look, everybody's there tonight. Look his family has 1008 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 1: had they keep cutting away to all the luminaries. That's 1009 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,239 Speaker 1: probably why Dave Roberts put him back out there for 1010 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:47,799 Speaker 1: the six It's like, look, everybody's here. 1011 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 3: Oh, and he doesn't want to be that guy. 1012 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 4: And it's not seven to two sixth okay, And we've 1013 00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,279 Speaker 4: seen them punt many games, not that you want to 1014 00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 4: do that, not that Kershaw would ever want them to 1015 00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,840 Speaker 4: do that, but how many how many opener games? We 1016 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 4: hasn't Keith Hernandez pitched in like eight games already this 1017 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:04,360 Speaker 4: year or something like that. 1018 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:09,760 Speaker 1: Absolute history Clayton Kershaw strikeout number three thousand,
