So is do we have 33 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: live baseball action right now? No, we do not have 34 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 1: any live baseball action right now. But we start out 35 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles or a top of mountain looking down 36 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 1: on skid row the Dodgers and the Blue Jays back 37 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: at it. Less than twenty four hours after the eighteen 38 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: inning thriller in Chavez Ravine and Toronto was looking to 39 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: even the series up in Game number four. Right there, 40 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: big stage, man, it was a massive so important. We 41 00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: had live music for it la a huge pitching. If 42 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: you looked at the matchup, you said, Okay, that's a 43 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: win for the Dodgers. Chuck that up for a win. 44 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 1: You had Shane Bieber representing the Canadians and show Hail 45 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: Tani for the Doyers, the greatest player ever to play 46 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: the sport of baseball. You cannot lose. You cannot lose 47 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,800 Speaker 1: a game started by the greatest player ever, God's gift 48 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 1: to humanity. Show Hail today. You cannot lose. That's why 49 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: they play the games. So if you didn't see it, 50 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 1: I assume you know by now. We watched, so you 51 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: would not have to. It's our good mister of the day. 52 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: But Flattie is your daddy, and he walloped a two 53 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: run homer off God's gift of baseball, Show Hail Tani 54 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: in the third inning there and Shane Bieber, of all people, 55 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: Shane Bieber, the Beebs went out there and pitched four 56 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: hit ball into the sixth inning, into the sixth inning, 57 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: Shane Bieber, who's got like a terminator arm. Unreal, unreal, 58 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: and Toronto gets back on track. They get a six 59 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: to two win over the Doyers. Addison Barger adding a 60 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: couple of hits and an RBI for the J's and 61 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: don't look now, but Toronto has reclaimed home field advantage, 62 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: and we are guaranteed that the World Series will end 63 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: on Canadian soil at the Rogers Center in downtown Toronto 64 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: right there, at some point this weekend, the World Series 65 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: will come to an end there in that fine city. 66 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: And that is a good jumping off point because Dave 67 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: Roberts better storing the losing locker room. And so Dave 68 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: Roberts addressing a very pathetic Dodger offense here, and the 69 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: question and Roberts insinuating that there's going to be some 70 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: changes to the Dodger lineup heading into the next game here, 71 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 1: game number five of the World Series. So the question 72 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: is what has gone haywire? What has gone haywire for 73 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: Dave Roberts and what was billed as the big Blue 74 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: wrecking crew at Dodger linup. So my thoughts on this, 75 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: I've got Ripley's believe it or not, Super Nintendo and 76 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: Checkered Flag, and we will combine all of these things together. 77 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna put them in a food processor. We're gonna 78 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: pick out whatever comes out of that food processor, Man, 79 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: is it gonna be delicious? So A, the Dodger offense 80 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: has been offensive. Let's call it like it is here. 81 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: They got the names, they don't necessarily have the games 82 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: they don't. There's been far too many weak performances by 83 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: the Dodgers the entire postseason, which is shocking. It shows 84 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: you how great the Dodgers must be. Because they're in 85 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 1: the World Series two wins away and they haven't played 86 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: well on offense pretty much the entire postseason since the 87 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: wildcard round. They're well below they being the Dodgers, well 88 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: below their regular season domination, and even that was below 89 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: what they were supposed to be. It is carried over 90 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 1: the Toronto Blue Jays doing what the Brewers could not do. 91 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: A contact heavy lineup of Blue Jay hitters here, opportunistic 92 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: bullpen exploiting the soft underbelly of the Los Angeles Dodgers 93 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: and something again Milwaukee was unable to do. And yet 94 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 1: here we are and Toronto is doing it at this point. 95 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: Although they're not winning the series. The series is tied up, 96 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: is now a best of three, and Toronto has home 97 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 1: field advantage yet again. But LA has gone from the 98 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: Big Blue wrecking crew with all these amazing names, and 99 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: they still have the names, but now they're like a 100 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: wet noodle, like a pool noodle, a blue pool noodle 101 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: is what they are right there. And so the offense, 102 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: which has been billed as a nuclear reactor, right now 103 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: it's a dead battery and they need some jumper cables 104 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 1: because it's not going well. And it's not just one guy. 105 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 1: It's not just one guy. This is as the line goes, 106 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: and all encompassing suck is what's going on right now 107 00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: with the Dodgers. You got Pete Rose, the long Gone 108 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: well not that long, you can die that long ago. 109 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: But Pete Rose was asked to describe his philosophy, the 110 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: all time hit King. I was asked to describe his 111 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: philosophy on hitting, and he said, I believe it was 112 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: six words. See the ball, hit the ball. Boom. That's it. 113 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: See the ball hit ball. So maybe the Dodgers need 114 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: to go to the eye doctor because they must not 115 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: be seeing the ball. They're not really hitting the ball 116 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: at all. The boys in blue, the Dodgers here, they're 117 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: not stringing together hits. Everyone's treating it like batting practice, 118 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: trying to hit home runs. Here and they can't even 119 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: fake it at this particular point. The four to twenty 120 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: one ops for the Dodgers in the postseason. Now, I 121 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: didn't play in the major leagues. I just do an 122 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: overnight talked to you. I don't think that's good. Oh, 123 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,679 Speaker 1: you're being too critical. The boys are trying. Okay, great, 124 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: that's congratulations. If you want that kind of content. Sure 125 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: that guy David Vassa does the Dodger postgame will lick 126 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: the toes of all the players. He's spite massaging Mookie 127 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: Bets right now as we speak. But that is not 128 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: a slump, by the way. That is who you are 129 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,520 Speaker 1: this postseason. That is who the Dodgers are this postseason. 130 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 1: It's also a cry for some kind of intervention. They 131 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: might want to bring in some major league tactics and 132 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 1: put a shrine up in a locker and get a 133 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: little statue and burn some sage in the locker room 134 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: or something along those lines. So the Dodgers making some 135 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: washed up blue jay pitchers collectively look like the ninety 136 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:35,839 Speaker 1: five Atlanta Braves with Glavin Maddox and Smoltz, Bang bang bang, 137 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,680 Speaker 1: just like that. Now, Mookie Bets, I'm gonna start with 138 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: Mooki we talk about the Dodgers' offensive problem. I want 139 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 1: to start with Mooki Bets. And here's why, because everyone 140 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: tells me that the resume matters. Y'all tell me that. 141 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: So Mookie Bets is an MVP, he's an eight time 142 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: All Star, He's won a bunch of Silver Slugger Awards. 143 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: I'm told that's a big deal. Right now, he is 144 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: like an old NFL kicker, mister automatica. In this case, 145 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: he's an automatic out. He's on Highway one fifty eight. 146 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,719 Speaker 1: Mookie Bets is batting a buck fifty eight. He's an 147 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: automatic out. He needs a map, he needs a GPS 148 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: to find his way. My got Mookie Bets ball. You know, 149 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: at this point he belongs in a museum, not the 150 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame, Mookie Bets. He belongs in the Ripley's 151 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 1: Believe it or not museum, the freak show department, right 152 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: next to Lobster Boy. You can have the human corkscrew. 153 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, it's like a cork shrew. He might 154 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: be trying to kill some kind of bugs, maybe some 155 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 1: mosquitoes or something like that. That's why he's swinging the 156 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: way he is and just not trying to put the 157 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: ball in play. And it's like, well, I'm not hitting 158 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: home runs right now, and this is I was called 159 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: the bad guy. Let the record show. This is hot 160 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:49,599 Speaker 1: take validation, hot take validation. I got killed. Two monologues 161 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: upset the Dodger fans more than anything this year. The 162 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw one I'm still getting crap about at the 163 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: end of the year when they had the mock funeral 164 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: of Kershaw. They dug up the mount unbelievable. It was 165 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: like he was a dinosaur and they dug up the bones. 166 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: And then also the Mookie Bets sucks monologue, which was 167 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: completely accurate. One hundred games in terrible and all the fanboys, 168 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: the cheerleaders there, the Dodger marching and shower SOCAIUTI very upset. 169 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: You shouldn't say that, Is it true? Yes, it's true, 170 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: but you shouldn't say that. But it's true. I know 171 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: it's you, but you shouldn't say that. Oh my god, sorry, 172 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 1: Mookie Bets sucks right now. Nineteen at bats, three hits, 173 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: zero extra base hits in the playoffs for rookie bats. 174 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: He's a punch and judy hitter at this point and 175 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: they're paying him like he's prime Tony Gwinn back in 176 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: the day Barry Bonds Love child with Tony Win or 177 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: something like that. And then you've got the I would 178 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: say Comodo dragged him the room, but that's being too kind. 179 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 1: You've got the rat in the room, the big vermin 180 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: in the room. That would be Andy Paez of the Dodgers. 181 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: The Dodgers would actually be better off, and this is 182 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: this is rather shocking with a Pez dispenser. If they 183 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: had a Pez dispenser at home plate, they would be 184 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: better off. At this point, Andy Pie is on Highway 185 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: sixty seven. He's hitting oh sixty seven in the World Series. 186 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: He's doing the full Michael Conforto cosplay. Now. Michael Conforto 187 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 1: is a guy that Dodgers added, was supposed to be 188 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: a big bat in the lineup and is so horrific 189 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: that he can't get near a batter's box in the 190 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 1: playoffs here because he's just talksing U and that is 191 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 1: Andy Pi's. He's been completely overmatched. He's he just lost late. 192 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: He needs to contact someone over at Baywatch because he's drowning. 193 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: At this particular point, it's bad, real bad, and they're 194 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,959 Speaker 1: leaving them out to dry. Dave Roberts is leaving them 195 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: out there. The guy's shown you he can't play. He's like, well, 196 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: we can't play. And Roberts keeps saying it's not rob 197 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: it's the nerds because they don't believe that there's a 198 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: thing called the slump. They don't think that every game's 199 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: individual and all that stuff and lack of confidence is 200 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: not a thing. And so here's a guy drowning and 201 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 1: he's continued to be in there. Does sound like Roberts, finally, 202 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: after losing another game in the World Series, is like, 203 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: all right, well, the nerds have told me that I 204 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: can put somebody else in there, so we'll we'll do that, 205 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: and they Andy Poz can get a one way ticket 206 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: to can Kun or some other nice tropical location if 207 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: you would like. And it's not just those guys you got. 208 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: Will Smith had the big home run in game two 209 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: in Toronto, hadn't done much other than that. Max Muncy, 210 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: what's going on? What's wrong with him? We not good either. 211 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: They're both kind of in the witness Protection program most 212 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: of these games in the World Series, so that's where 213 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: we are. And Roberts keeps running out the same lineup 214 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: because that's what the nerds tell him to do. And 215 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: you know, he's just the middle manager and that's what 216 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: he does, and he just sends them out there. And now, 217 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 1: as for the pitching, there's a lot of people I 218 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: could rip for the pitch, but I'd like to focus 219 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 1: in because I've limited time, as you know, because it's 220 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: a network radio show, So I would like to focus 221 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 1: on Blake Trining. Now, Blake Trining should be put on 222 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: an exploratory rocket out to Mars, never to come back. 223 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: Holy crap. I'm convinced that the nerds and Dave Roberts 224 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: that Blake trinon has photos of them because he keeps 225 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: getting into these games. It's unreal. Another guy that has 226 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 1: shown you he's washed up, he can't play, and he 227 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: keeps getting in these World Series games. Has an eight 228 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: thirty one earned run average as a reliever in the 229 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: postseason eight thirty one earned run average. Blake Trining, he's cooked, 230 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 1: he's burned. It's horrific. It's like knowing you're going to 231 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 1: pour gasoline on a tinderbox. Who would do that? Dave 232 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: Roberts and the nerds, that's who does it. And so 233 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: it's like you watch a guy that keeps hitting the 234 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,559 Speaker 1: self destruct button and makes things worse when he comes 235 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: in out of the bullpen, and like you keep saying, well, 236 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: this time he hits the button, it's gonna be confetti. 237 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: Well no, it's not confetti, shrapnel, But next time it's 238 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: gonna be confetti. Well again it's shrapnel, but no, next 239 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: next time. Enough enough and so, and then you add 240 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: that with the Dodger offense, who's it's supposed to be 241 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: a death star and it's a dollar general is what 242 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: they are now turning the page. So I would like 243 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: to adjust to me. And I realized this is my 244 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: pet peeve and no one else has this stick when 245 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: I'm about to complain about nobody else has, I'm the 246 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: only one that is gonna get on the bully pulpit 247 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: and complain about this. But it's my job to do 248 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 1: it because I see bull crap and I just have 249 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: to yell. It's therapeutic. I just bear with me, just 250 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: just go with it. So the story after the Dodger 251 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: Blue Jay game, a game won by Toronto to even 252 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: up the world series, was not that Shohil Tony didn't 253 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: get it done. It's that it's not his fault. He 254 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: didn't get it done. You feel me on that. So 255 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: Otani was zero for three at the plate with two strikeouts, 256 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: and he was also the losing pitcher. On the mound 257 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: he allowed you know, he was pitching okay, and then 258 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: he allowed the last inning and there's some runs that gave, 259 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: but he ended up giving up four runs. Otani in 260 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 1: six hits, and he was the losing pitcher. And ever 261 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: since that World Series game ended, it's been a couple hours, 262 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: there has been NonStop media working overtime to cook in 263 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: the kitchen of excuses. So the question for these steam 264 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: panel the question is where are you at on the 265 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: media going into the kitchen and cooking up alibis for 266 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: sho hey Otani and his World Series clunker. So the media, 267 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: fanboys and girls, all right, here's some of the excuses. 268 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: I jotted down a few of them. The media has 269 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 1: told us that the reason Otani sucked in the World 270 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: Series because he was tired. They told us that he 271 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: didn't get enough sleep. I like that. Uh, it was 272 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: hot and the eighteen inning game went long, so he 273 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: was too tired. The level excuse, my friends here the 274 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: level of bull crap, Like, what the hell is wrong 275 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: with you people? Seriously, can you imagine I don't get 276 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: much sleep at all during the week doing the overnights. 277 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 1: I should go to my boss and say, listen, just 278 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: the reason the show's not good. It's I didn't get 279 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: enough sleep. Okay, that's good, that's perfect. But again the 280 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: problem with Otan. I'm not anti Otani. It's gonna sound 281 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: like I'm anti Otani. I'm gonna get email. You don't 282 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: like Otani, you don't like o No, I don't he 283 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:52,440 Speaker 1: I like he's been built into baseball's demigod show. Hey, 284 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: Atani is Baseball's demigod. He is. He's half man, half 285 00:16:55,680 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: mythical lumberjack. And the minute that Otani looks mortal like 286 00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: he most certainly did in this World Series game, instead 287 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: of just calling it like it is, it's like, well, 288 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: let's check his sleep IQ score. How much how much 289 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 1: deep sleep did O'tani get? Oh my god. As for 290 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:23,239 Speaker 1: the weather, it was a little warm. It was not 291 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: Phoenix Arizona warm. Okay, it was not Vegas warm. It 292 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:31,160 Speaker 1: was not Death Valley warm. So what are we doing here? Okay, yeah, 293 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 1: it's la baseball in October. It's still hot in LA 294 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: in October. That's why people put up with the ridiculous 295 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: People's Republic of California taxation and all that crap because 296 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: of the weather. All right, And so you think Babe 297 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: Ruth maybe he did. I don't know. I was alive 298 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: with Babe Ruth. But you think Babe Ruth ever complained 299 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: because he didn't get enough sleep? Wasn't the legend of Baberuth. 300 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: There's this old guy named Bert Sugar died years ago. 301 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: Boxing guy was a sports historian, and Bert used to 302 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: tell stories about Babe the woman I of Babe Ruth, 303 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: and the drinking of Babe Ruth and the just the 304 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: excess of the Bambino and they travel by train and 305 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: they'd be like, you know, random women chasing after Babe 306 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,679 Speaker 1: half naked and stuff. Never got reworded. But anyway, so 307 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: I don't think Babe Ruth complained about that. But see, 308 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: this is the problem, right, this is the problem. As 309 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: I get on the Bully pulp. But the media has 310 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: built Otani into a Super Nintendo cheat code, like just 311 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 1: a Super Nintendo cheat code come to life. It's like 312 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 1: if a video game avatar could come to life. Here 313 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 1: it is, and then he goes out there and again 314 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: he looked very human in this particular game. And you 315 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 1: have to invent excuses out of thin air to keep 316 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: the dream alive. You got to keep the fantasy alive. 317 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: Otani is too big to fail, and there's a lot 318 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,360 Speaker 1: of people invested in this. There's a lot of reporters 319 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,360 Speaker 1: from Japan that have gotten on the company dime there 320 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 1: and they're free loading in America, covering the Dodgers on 321 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 1: a daily basis. There's a lot of people that have 322 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: Otani into their products. Major League Baseball's heavily invested in 323 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: the myth of Otani. They need Otani. They cannot have 324 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 1: Otani fail here, and so he's not going to be 325 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 1: perfect in every game. But to me, that weakens the legend. 326 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 1: When you do crap like this, it weakens the legend, 327 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: and that's not cool. You don't need a Greek chorus 328 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: of pr hacks coming in here and explaining, well, the 329 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 1: reason that Zeus misplaced his lightning bolt is you know X, 330 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: Y and Z. You just just say he's stunk, Mia Kopa, 331 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: He'll be better next time, and that's it, right period, 332 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,679 Speaker 1: hard Stop you don't need all this other stuff. And 333 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: it's like, are these real people? I'm not wired that way? 334 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: Maybe I should be. Everyone else seems to be making 335 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:53,840 Speaker 1: a lot more money than me, and they're wired that way. 336 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 1: I guess I should just be a kiss ass like 337 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: everyone else in the media. Holy crap, I just admitted 338 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: move on, and you don't need to say, well, it's 339 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: because you didn't get his twelve hours of sleep. You 340 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: imagine needing twelve hours of sleep to function? Holy canoli? 341 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 1: My god? All right, last thing, quick, right to the 342 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: Toronto side of things. So the Blue Jays get the 343 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 1: win in La They had to do that. They lost 344 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: home field in Toronto in Game two, so they had 345 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 1: to win a game in Los Angeles and they did. So. 346 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: How are things looking for Vladi Guerrero's Blue Jays in 347 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 1: the World Series? So, as Larry David would say, pretty 348 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 1: deep print, deep pritt deep prit de good, not bad, 349 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: not bad. When you look at the tailor of the tape, 350 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: the Dodgers a big favorite, as Viva Los Vicky likes 351 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 1: to tell us, in the World Series, I had big 352 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 1: favorite and all that, but you look at it, and 353 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: if you look at the tailor, of the tape. The 354 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 1: Toronto Blue Jays are matching La punch for punch. Four 355 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 1: games in to the World Series. Everybody told us that 356 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: the Dodgers had all the momentum from Freddie Freeman's dramatic 357 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: eighteen inning home run, the eighteenth inning home run, the marathon. 358 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: It ended like a half hour from now yesterday. So 359 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: my god. But Toronto again, they're right there, neck and neck. 360 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: They're getting it done. And they were supposed to be 361 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: emotionally fried because the Dodgers had all the momentum right 362 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 1: ready to pack up the maple syrup and go back 363 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 1: to Canada. Well what happened. The Jays dropped the haymaker 364 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: on the Dodgers. And the reason there is no such 365 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,199 Speaker 1: thing as momentum. Oh he said it out loud. He 366 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 1: said it out loud. Yep. Sorry. Now the Jays are 367 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: guaranteed to have the World Series decided on their home field. 368 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: They'll enjoy Mama's home cooked poutine and they'll get these 369 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 1: skyline fireworks, the whole bit right there. It's gonna be great. 370 00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:59,919 Speaker 1: As far as the Dodgers, maybe they'll find their offense. 371 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 1: I think they left it somewhere between La and Toronto 372 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: so they can find it. It looks like they're stuck 373 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: in gridlock traffic at this point. Good luck. But it 374 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: is rather incredible that Shane Bieber and I'm not gonna 375 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 1: I've already gotten people. Well it's fixed, it's it's you know, 376 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: it's a scary, terry situation. That guy Porter. You know, 377 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: it's all rigged. I'm not going because if that's the kid, 378 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: why are we even doing this? Like if that's if 379 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: this is all like scripted professional wrestling, Like what are 380 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 1: we doing? I mean, I'm as well just do something else, 381 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 1: talk about some other crap on the radio. I need 382 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: to talk about sports if it's all rigged. But that said, 383 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: all right, that said bieber Fever, bieber Fever. In the 384 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: World Series. He was supposed to be weekend at Bernie's 385 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: and the ghost of Cy Young passed Shane Bieber and 386 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 1: he went five plus innings and one run ball. That 387 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: is an act of God, is what You've got to 388 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: be kidding me. The Dodgers got emasculated by the corpse 389 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: of Shane Bieber. That is what the billion dollar Boys 390 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: Club and all that four hits, It's rather unreal when 391 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: you think about it. That's why they play even mad Max. 392 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: Max Suursey should have gotten his ass kicked by the Dodgers, 393 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: and he didn't get his ass kicked. So the Jays 394 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 1: they rolled out a couple of Beater cars and somehow 395 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,239 Speaker 1: they have at this point taken the checkered flag as 396 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: they've matched the Dodgers blow for blow in the World 397 00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 1: Series Grand Prix, so they're right there. Unfortunately, Toronto did 398 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: not get the text message. They must have been on 399 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: airplane mode. They did not get the text message that 400 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 1: they were supposed to roll over and play dead in 401 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: the World Series. So again we're tied up to two. 402 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 1: Home field goes back to North of the Border and 403 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,040 Speaker 1: it's going to be decided either way on Canadians. So 404 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: I just haven't won a World Series at home since 405 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: I think the nineteen sixties, so they don't usually win 406 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: at home. They won't win at home this year. They 407 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 1: might not win at all, might not win. You know, 408 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 1: it's Mike's weasel word. But the way they're playing, the 409 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: bullpen returned to form. They suck and the offense sucks, 410 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 1: so what are you gonna How do you win with that? 411 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,199 Speaker 1: How do you win with a bad offense at a 412 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 1: bad bullpen and they won a game they shouldn't have won. 413 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: So that's where we are. It's sticky situations like the 414 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: Dodgers are covered in syrup, Canadian syrup and right now 415 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: that Jay's feeling pretty good.

Men, 467 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: with me living in southern Canada and not having a 468 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 1: baseball team to root for, you can definitely feel that 469 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: syrups starting to warm up and starting to drip on 470 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: your Dodgers. You see feathers flying. You know it's over there, 471 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: you go. I love the show. It's a surping. Let's 472 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,120 Speaker 1: get syrup on. It's hard to get the syrup off. 473 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 1: It's just it's really messy. It's the worst, right, it's heroin. 474 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 4: Is that what they use to make a feather stick 475 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 4: to you though. 476 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:51,920 Speaker 1: Well the terms a tardan feathers. That's an old who 477 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 1: knows that's an old term. Ferg Dog writes and says, well, Ben, 478 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: the bad news is the Dodgers lost, But the good 479 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: news is your show isn't being covered up the Dodger 480 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:06,440 Speaker 1: blowhard David Vasse. Also, I'm struggling trying to beat Lemmings. 481 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 1: I could use one of those Super Nintendo cheat codes, 482 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: says says Fergno, all right, uh, not a burner, right since, 483 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: says Ben, I have discovered if I eat the proper 484 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:23,159 Speaker 1: meal and I'm sitting just right, I can emit a 485 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 1: sound similar to the Leprechaun's chicken. Interesting now, the Lepriqun, though, 486 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 1: does have an actual rubber chicken, and he plays with 487 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: it way too much.

I'm the 489 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: only one of the shows met the Leprechaun. Conveniently, the 490 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: other people that were on the show were not here 491 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: when the Leprechaun was here. 492 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 4: I don't know unfortunate though how. 493 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: That happened, but for some reason they were not there, 494 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: thank god. Yeah, So that was the day that the 495 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: leprecaun got us in trouble and and whatnot. So that 496 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: was it was a fun day. Uh uh, let's see, 497 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:06,719 Speaker 1: mister guy says better better purse Lebron James or Key 498 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 1: k Hernandez. Well, Lebron is and I, with all all 499 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: due respect, t k Hernandez is a nobody. Lebron James 500 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: with the with the merse, that clip which has been 501 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 1: turned into a gift of Lebron showing up with the Well, 502 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: he was leaving the news conference against the Warriors when 503 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: he was playing for Cleveland, and he confidently he got 504 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: up and he grabbed his purse and then walked away. 505 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: It was so good, oh so great, Oh my god. Yes, uh. 506 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: Freddie writes in he says all the new words in 507 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: Japanese that he's learned there, and he says he learned 508 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: a new word in Japanese which means strikeout, sit down. 509 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,959 Speaker 1: It is what I was telling the Dodgers, all that 510 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: money and the they can't hit a ball. King Rory 511 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 1: rites in a long suffering Brewers fan. He says, maybe 512 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: Dave Roberts should have benched O'tani once Game three went 513 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: into extra innings, because number one, it was past Otani's bedtime, 514 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: and Toronto walked him the rest of the game anyway. 515 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: Plus it's Otani's own fault for being tired. His home 516 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 1: run tied the game's King Rory. Yeah, that is next 517 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: level excuse making. Now. I've been to sportscaster Clown College 518 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 1: and they teach you about how to make excuses for 519 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 1: failed athletes. That is like an advanced course though you're 520 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: a Rhodes scholar. If you can say, well, because he 521 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:51,719 Speaker 1: didn't get the ten to twelve hours of sleep, Oh 522 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: my god, the guy's got I got seven hundred million 523 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: dollar contract and we're giving him a mulligan because he 524 00:30:58,440 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: didn't get his twelve hours of. 525 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 4: What you know, Ben, I actually imagined that they would 526 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 4: put him in like an incubator to make sure that 527 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 4: his body could heal in the time frame because it 528 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 4: was a late game. I would be tired too. No, No, 529 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 4: it's if you get paid that much, you better turn 530 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:15,480 Speaker 4: it on. You get out there. 531 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: It goes up to his mansion up there. He lives 532 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: in Adam Corolla's old House of old People. He bought it. 533 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: Corolla's old house just up the way from Dodger Stadium. 534 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: There off the two and so he's got his big 535 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,280 Speaker 1: compound up there and then do his thing and whatnot, 536 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 1: and good for him, I got. I just I just 537 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: love the how unreliable. And I know this has been 538 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: this way for a long time. These guys are so 539 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: unrelatable to the common person, Like they're all these clubhouses 540 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: are like country clubs. These these baseball players have and 541 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: we're literally there must be so many dumb people that 542 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: the sports media can be like, well, he didn't get 543 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: his twelve hours of sleep, boll Tony, and that's why 544 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: he didn't play that. Well, I am the man a lot, 545 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: and it's it's hot. It was kind of it's hot. 546 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: I mean, the level of bull crap is just I mean, 547 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: it's just outrageous. And again I like the Dodgers. That's 548 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: just I just I'm fascinated by the industrial complex of 549 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: sports and where we are at this particular point. It 550 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: just blows me away. I'm like, and clearly I'm not 551 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: who this is for. I understand that I'm not the 552 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: person this is appealing to. I just I'm just fascinated 553 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: by all of this. Now. Dave Roberts after the game 554 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: said of the game four loss, he said, quote we 555 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: haven't found our rhythm? Was the quote, well how bad 556 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: is it for the Dodger offense? So the fun fact 557 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: of the hour, and we do love our fun facts. 558 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: Here the fun facts. Fun fact. Since sweeping the Cincinnati 559 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: Reds in the wild Caring round, much for the dismay 560 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: of just Josh and Justin in Cincinnati, the Dodgers have 561 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 1: scored just three point seven runs per game. That's it, 562 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: three point seventy five runs per game. Yet they still 563 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: have a run differential of plus two, and they've won 564 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: nine of those games. Dominant starting pitching Otani was not dominant. 565 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 1: Blake Snell in game one, Bro, I ain't playing unless 566 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: I get mine. Bro, he got paid. Bro, I'm risking 567 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: my live. 568 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 2: Bro. 569 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess he risks his live in Canada, Honey, Bro, 570 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: I'm risking my life. He puked all over the mound 571 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: in game one, and we'll see way can you imagine 572 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: if it was both both games? Blake Snell starts on 573 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: the World Series. He schedule to start game five. My god, 574 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: that is so so bad. Who else do we have here? 575 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 1: Ryan writes in from San Diego. He says, great monologue, 576 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 1: I am giving you a ten plus. Thank you for 577 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: your Otani video game reference. I still think their manager 578 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: is high for pitching to Otani. He's playing with fire 579 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: and talking about Blue Jays manager John Snyder, and he's 580 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 1: going to get burned. Do you think Jimmy Key or 581 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:14,800 Speaker 1: Dave Steve will pitch if this series goes forward here, Well, 582 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 1: that's a good question. The Blue Jay legends of years 583 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:21,920 Speaker 1: gone by? Hmm, I think they're bullpken. You could use 584 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 1: Tom Henke. I don't know. If Tom Hanky is available, 585 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 1: then they can get him there. Yeah, Nature Boy says. 586 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 1: Vassay's prediction of the Dodgers in five is not looking 587 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: too good now. Yeah, well sorry, Yeah, it's like you 588 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,839 Speaker 1: gotta when you're a houseman, you got to give those 589 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 1: kind of predictions. I don't blame if I was I 590 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 1: was in the tank, I would do the same thing. 591 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: Barbecueing len Wright Sin says after eighteen innings, Otani should 592 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: have slammed back some Bruskies till two passed out till 593 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: two pm, ish head to the ballpark and scarf down 594 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,960 Speaker 1: a half a dozen hot dogs. Have another would have 595 00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,280 Speaker 1: been unhittable. A week from Minnesota says three things thing's 596 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: number one. The Doyers went up to the plate like 597 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: they thought it was Justin Bieber pitching the Now was 598 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 1: Bieber at the game?

But wouldn't 603 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 1: you rather if you're Bieber, wouldn't you rather see Bieber 604 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,759 Speaker 1: and Bieber like a law firm, like a bad law firm, 605 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: Bieber and Bieber. I don't know that he was at 606 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: the game. I want to shirt this as that Okay? 607 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: The Doyers, according to this is a week, he says. 608 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,479 Speaker 1: The Doyers are batting my weight and Toronto is hitting 609 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: your weight. That's a cheap shot. That is a cheap 610 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:40,280 Speaker 1: shot a week. Every game is back back to back nights, 611 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 1: he says, with the start less than twenty four hours 612 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: after the previous game finished.

Otani is a glorified long reliever. 618 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: According to Alex the Cinecal, he's a midget three year 619 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: a pitcher at the best. He's better off investing in 620 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: real estate and crypto. There you go, it's from Alex 621 00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 1: the Cinical.
