17
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 1: get back into the high drama the Major League Baseball

18
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: playoffs coming up in a moment. But right now, just

19
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: under three minutes to go in the fourth quarter, Defying logic,

20
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: the forty nine Ers could walk away from Thursday Night

21
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: Football with a victory over the Rams. A go ahead

22
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: field goal has given them the twenty three to twenty lead. Again,

23
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 1: the Rams getting the ball back with just under three

24
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: minutes left to go. Mac Jones right now, two hundred

25
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: and ninety six yards through the air, a couple of touchdowns.

26
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 1: His quarterback rating is over one hundred. Kendrick Bourne, who

27
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: many people are patting themselves on the back right now

28
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: because they probably picked him up in fantasy earlier today

29
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 1: and put him in their lineup. Ten catches for one

30
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: hundred and forty two yards for Kendrick Bourne.

31
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 4: Last minute add once everybody got ruled out, Like earlier

32
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 4: in the week, it was all right, are they gonna play?

33
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 4: I don't know today? All right, next man up with

34
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 4: Mac Jones, guy who's been working with on that second team.

35
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 4: By the way, ex bear Eddie Pinero with the field goal.

36
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: Ten for one forty two. It's like it's like Montana

37
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: and Rice the way these guys are hitting its and

38
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: this is and the thing is, this is a good defense, right,

39
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: this is a great defense today. Rams, No, it's terrible today.

40
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 4: You're letting long, protracted dry because that's the thing they've

41
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 4: had to work for every point. All these Rams are

42
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 4: quick ones here, yeah, getting it Tilly backups will come

43
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 4: in and they're working the Rams defense now still every

44
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 4: end was Christian McCaffrey and whoever else shows up from

45
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:13,079
Speaker 4: the forty nine ers.

46
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: Now, McCaffrey's having a nice night. He's got nearly one

47
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty total yards of offense. But it's not

48
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: like he's running the ball really well. They stopped them there.

49
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: But he does have six catches in the passing game.

50
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: He's been pretty good.

51
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,280
Speaker 4: He's made his living this year, as someone might have

52
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 4: predicted on his show.

53
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: So here's a situation where it's we're hitting the two

54
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: minute warning and the Rams again down three to the

55
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: forty nine ers, but they are driving. It looks like

56
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 1: a holding penalty is going to give the Rams the

57
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 1: first down inside forty nine ers territory. So again, we'll

58
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 1: have more on this game coming up in a few minutes.

59
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 1: But first, hey, we now know where all the League

60
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: Division series are going to be. The Yankees will play

61
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: the Blue Jays, as they have just finished their shutout

62
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: of the Boston Red Sox ford to nothing. And I'm sorry,

63
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: can we get Monty Belong yourself. You have a very

64
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,880

Speaker 4: So he's now made two starts since this card sold

00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 4: dollars on September twenty third. Okay, he then had a

103
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,279
Speaker 4: number of other Parallels that are now up upwards of

104
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 4: two thousand dollars and flying you know you know who

105
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 4: that is.

106
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: It's slip so she can so she can get the

107
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: card and just look at it and go Schlitler.

108
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 5: Slippler gonna I'm gonna take it all off.

109
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: And it's to say cam s, cam s.

110
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 4: That's really how he signed it.

111
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: Cam. Okay, see we did sign a.

112
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're right, miss because I bet she's misspelled his

113
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 4: last name before. Absolutely on purpose, you think, And then no, no, no,

114
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 4: you say I'm saying on purpose and then realizing, oh wait,

115
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 4: now I'm a Yankees prospect. This is probably not good.

116
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,039
Speaker 5: You're saying, I am a c H.

117
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: You know, I mean, you know it's s c H.

118
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,679
Speaker 4: It's that's okay, but like if you do it quickly,

119
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 4: that could get lost.

120
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, but I think he signed his name pretty.

121
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, which is why he says Cam s okay, because

122
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 4: that's also a lot of letters in that surname.

123
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: Again, we are just twenty three minutes away from Monty

124
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: having to say his name again.

125
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 4: I think it's I don't think she's got I think

126
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 4: for the rest of the slit it wouldn't be the

127
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 4: only one to do it. So I mean, she's like,

128
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 4: I'm dunking all over this one. Now look this is

129
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 4: and thank you very much done. Uh now look this

130
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:17,919
Speaker 4: and this is why I look at this and I

131
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 4: go the Yankees are gonna win the world too. All

132
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 4: of a sudden, you get the catch by Ryan nick Mahon,

133
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 4: The New Jeter play right which we talked about it

134
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 4: a lot last hour. And here's Schlittler who comes in

135
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 4: and and shuts out the Red Sox for eight innings,

136
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 4: last two starts, fifteen innings pitched zo.

137
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: He's like the new Andy Pettitt. It's like Schlittler's the

138
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 1: right handed new Andy Pettitt. Nine strikeouts in that one,

139
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 1: twelve in this one.

140
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 4: Like now I'm thinking the Yankees are going from they're

141
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 4: gonna win the World Series. Now they're gonna be the

142
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 4: dynasty again. They're gonna win like four and five years

143
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 4: or something stupid like that, telling you made this it,

144
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 4: you get texting from Fabi iam.

145
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: No, I'm go I gotta block him. I gotta block

146
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 1: him because it's either that or it's a bad trade off. Yeah,

147
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: mostly it's bad trade off in fantasy. But then it

148
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 1: would be this. But you think about the Yankees tonight, like,

149
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: look when when I when when I picked the Yankees

150
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: last night to win tonight, to take Game three. The

151
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: Red Sox had control of this series, they had momentum,

152
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: and they went conservative throughout the entire game yesterday. Right,

153
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: you had uh Eaton not scoring when when he should

154
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:23,920
Speaker 1: have scored on the infield hit even though he was

155
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: held up at third bait let him go like you

156
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: cold see they're not making that plays. And that's the

157
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: biggest play of this entire series. Right, you could talk

158
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: about Schlitler and McMahon's playing again. You're gonna hear it

159
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: again again, the new Jeter play. Uh, but the biggest

160
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: play of this series. First and second, nobody out, seventh

161
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 1: inning and Alex Korra tries to have rafaela bunt and

162
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: the bunt pops up to the pitcher. Now it's first

163
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: and second with one out. The Yankees get out of

164
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: the inning. You had the big Austin Wells hit in

165
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: the bottom of the eighth. They win Game two. They

166
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: seize the momentum and they never gave it back and

167
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 1: the Red Sox never scored again following that, which we

168
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: talked about it last night. Look, you know, I hate bunting.

169
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 1: I think bunting is an outdated way, an outdated baseball strategy.

170
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: And why Alex Korra was playing for one run in

171
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: the seventh inning of a tie game, I don't understand

172
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 1: when you have first and second and nobody out, what

173
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: are you doing? What are you doing trying to bunt

174
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: from a guy that you you know, Yes he's bunted

175
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: before in the past, but he's got what four sacrifice

176
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: buns in three years. Okay, now you're asking a butt

177
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: in the A in the divisional series here in New

178
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: York in the seventh inning, swing away, man, swing away.

179
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: Once the Red Sox went conservative, they gave the momentum

180
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 1: to the Yankees and they never gave it back.

181
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 4: I just don't understand how against the Yankees now you've

182
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,719
Speaker 4: had they had their number in the regular season, right,

183
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 4: ten and four, record, all of that stuff, But this

184
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 4: is a team that scores runs. They will come back.

185
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 4: One run was not changing that game, because that's what

186
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 4: you're playing for. Right You go back and we talked

187
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 4: about it last I'd find the podcast wherever you get

188
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 4: your audio. We appreciate you, love you. But it was

189
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,679
Speaker 4: a long discussion about baseball as we were growing up,

190
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 4: where you always had the pitcher could be part of

191
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 4: the mix, so you had a lot of bunting there

192
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 4: instead of waving at three pitches for the striker. That's fine,

193
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 4: it existed then, but right now it really doesn't. Very

194
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 4: few teams try to execute it. Those that can't hit

195
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 4: home runs. Andre's had a lot of bunting during the year,

196
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 4: but they did none of it in the game against

197
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 4: the Cubs today. But you look at your opportunity you

198
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 4: squandered here. You had a couple of small threats again Schlittler,

199
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 4: but you did nothing with it.

200
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, he was. He was in control of the

201
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: entire game. And I think if Aaron Boone tried to

202
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,960
Speaker 1: take him out, Yankee fans would have streamed out of

203
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: the stands. It could have been it like it was

204
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 1: like it was the the upset win last week. We said, Wow,

205
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 1: that's a that's a fast running on the field. Yeah

206
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: no against Florida's.

207
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 4: Florida guy didn't even get to get up off the mat.

208
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 1: That's how fast Yankee fans would have out there to

209
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: grab Aaron boots so he couldn't take Schlittler out.

210
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 4: Of That was the one thing I kept trying to

211
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 4: find in our online search in that post game. That

212
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 4: guy's okay, right, I mean the way that that crowd

213
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 4: he charged, And you.

214
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: Look at Schlitler and most strikeouts by a rookie in

215
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 1: a playoff game. You going back to, like I remember

216
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: when Mike Bottaker had thirteen strikeouts in a playoff game

217
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 1: in eighty three when the Orioles won the.

218
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 4: World soonis such a big White Sox in the a

219
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 4: like this, like the side.

220
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: It's like the third most strikeouts of rookies had in

221
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: a game in the playoffs in baseball history.

222
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 4: He was magnificent. He was hitting every every boat had

223
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 4: them chasing absolute command. I mean, he came into the

224
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 4: game with his two nine six e R and certainly

225
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,599
Speaker 4: we'd seen the punch out rate, but here in a

226
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 4: big moment like this to just dominate the way he

227
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 4: did from pillar to post and he was still throwing

228
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 4: clean and easy as he left after eight. Surprise he

229
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 4: didn't come back out to win the job. Well, four runs,

230
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 4: I listen, if you don't have a closer that can close.

231
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,439
Speaker 4: Was a four run lead in the ninth inning of

232
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:03,439
Speaker 4: a game at home. He shouldn't be in Major League Baseball. Well,

233
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 4: you know you got you gotta keep it within a slam.

234
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 4: You know.

235
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 2: That was the old rule.

236
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 4: It's like, hey, we could be down, but you got

237
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 4: to keep it within a slam. Get him on, get

238
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 4: him over, get him in now. Fantastic effort to close

239
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 4: out the Red Sox Uh, they'll be ruining all of

240
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 4: those decisions yesterday, and I know they got defensive at

241
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,560
Speaker 4: the Podium's like, well, it's easy to say you're.

242
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: Not on the field.

243
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,839
Speaker 4: It's like, no, I've got a better vantage point of

244
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 4: how much space he had has that ball got away?

245
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,599
Speaker 4: So yeah, I can say it from my perch. I

246
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 4: want to fight me, not Cam Newton over here with

247
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 4: a feather in his hat.

248
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 1: Let's go. No, no, no, Look, I've accepted. Yankees are gonna.

249
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 1: Yankees gonna win the World Series. I mean, I just

250
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: it's good to accept it. It's good there. I've accepted

251
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: it because I've accepted it. Once I accepted and they

252
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 1: do it, it won't hurt so bad. I have to

253
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: sit here and go look at the Mets and the big.

254
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 4: All that stuff I'm gonna got. Just in a couple

255
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 4: of days, you've gone. You from trying to get through

256
00:11:59,360 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 4: the grief.

257
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 3: Man.

258
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: But from the drama of Yankees red Sox to the

259
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 1: drama right now between the forty nine ers and the Rams.

260
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: It looked like the Rams were going in for a

261
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: go ahead touchdown down twenty three to twenty to the

262
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: forty nine ers. They had driven down to the two

263
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 1: yard line. But for the second time this week, we

264
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: have seen a running back take a handoff and then

265
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,079
Speaker 1: eys getting really big for the goal line forgets one

266
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: thing holding on to the football. Kyron Williams fumble punch out.

267
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: The ball is punched out at the two. The Niners

268
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: take over at their own one yard line. Okay, that's it,

269
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: Niners are gonna win. Except Rams had all three timeouts left.

270
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,839
Speaker 1: They called all their timeouts. The forty nine Ers made

271
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 1: them use the timeouts, So now the Rams are getting

272
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,599
Speaker 1: the football back. They would have had it inside the

273
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: thirty yard line. However, a penalty block from behind. Penalty

274
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: on the Rams is gonna bring this ball back a

275
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: little bit. But the Rams are gonna have the ball

276
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: around midfield forty two seconds to at least get into

277
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 1: field goal range where they could tie this game. They

278
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,719
Speaker 1: were really in great field position, but now they have

279
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: forty two seconds no timeouts to get down the field

280
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: for what's likely going to be a field goal attempt

281
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,439
Speaker 1: to tie this game and send it to overtime. Yeah,

282
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: that it was an unnecessary hold. Yeah, you had two

283
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 1: guys right, the second going.

284
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 4: Second guy came over and was offering assistance and instead

285
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 4: still grabbed the Jersey.

286
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: Rams could have two losses because of their special teams

287
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,880
Speaker 1: five weeks into the season, not being able to get

288
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: in field goals blocked, getting extra points blocked like they

289
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 1: did tonight, or they would have had the lead in

290
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: this game and now a big special team's penalty. But again,

291
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: they have time at midfield with about forty two seconds

292
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: left to go to try to tie this game.

293
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 4: Tell me special teams doesn't matter.

294
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: We'll have more on this game coming up next. Boy,

295
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: we're getting down to the nitty gritty and the drama.

296
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 1: Thirty six seconds left to go. Rams have the ball

297
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,679
Speaker 1: at midfield facing second and ten. But up next we

298
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: break down all the drama we saw Yankees in the

299
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: Red Sox. Alex Tischer's listening to songs on an iPod.

300
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: The ABS system can't get to Major League Baseball soon enough.

301
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 1: Who's walking away with wins in the next playoff round?

00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,520

328
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: drama of the day in Major League Baseball, joining us

329
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: now the hotline. Someone who I guarantee is wiped out

330
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: with all of the action everyone. He's spent today getting

331
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: drunk with his dad after the Tigers won allegedly allegedly

332
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean the Tigers did win. I mean

333
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: the other part. MLB Network Insider extraordinaire on Twitter at

334
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: John Morose. See it is John Paul Morosi. What's happening, man?

335
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 1: How are you bud?

336
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 3: Not a drop? My friend was. I was not even

337
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 3: on assignment in Cleveland, so I can't even claim to

338
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 3: have just absorbed the general alcohol content of the champagne

339
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 3: celebration in the clubhouse there in Cleveland. So there is

340
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:28,359
Speaker 3: a very distinctive you've ever covered one of those champagne celebrations,

341
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 3: It has a The humid intensity of air filled with

342
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 3: champagne bubbles is really pungent, and I'm sure I'll experience

343
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 3: that later on this month. There was actually one time

344
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 3: when I was covering a champagne celebration and the producer

345
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 3: kept sending me back into the clubhouse and I wasn't

346
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 3: even actually sure sure if any of the interviews were airing.

347
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 3: I just thought they were having fun with me, and

348
00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 3: then I basically emerged from the clubhouse with champagne and

349
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 3: was delicately told that I would be riding by myself

350
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,159
Speaker 3: to the airport because yeah, no one else really wanted

351
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 3: to hang out with me.

352
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 2: At that point time, I'm picking.

353
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: Up this guy he's Blast and he tells me he's

354
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 1: been working all night. He just like, yeah, you're at alcohol, that's.

355
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 3: The thing is. So I went. It was in Chicago.

356
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 3: I went straight from Wrigley to O'Hare and my flight

357
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 3: and I remember boarding the boarding the aircraft and people

358
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,159
Speaker 3: looking at me like, man, like, it's it's now seven

359
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 3: o'clock in the evening. Were you have you been out

360
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,120
Speaker 3: on Rush Street since last night? I mean, what where

361
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 3: are we at here? So at least gave me a

362
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 3: good story.

363
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 4: Wait, wait a minute, So you took a car or

364
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 4: did you take the Blue line?

365
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 3: I took a car at the blue line.

366
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 4: Would have been interesting. You would have gone.

367
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 3: Viralight, not the blue line that time. There may have

368
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 3: been a time that I was on the Blue line

369
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 3: in similar and similar stead, but that's not that particular occasion.

370
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:02,439
Speaker 3: All right.

371
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: So, speaking of champagne celebrations now and here, I've already

372
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 1: accepted this, John Paul, after seeing Ryan McMahon make the

373
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 1: new Jeter play Cam Schlitzler turn into the new Andy Pettitt.

374
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 1: The Yankees are gonna win the World Series. They're a

375
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 1: team I've already I've already come to accept a team

376
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: of destiny. The win tonight. They're gonna win the World Series.

377
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: That got everything they need. It's twenty years ago. The

378
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 1: dynasty is now going to be reborn.

379
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,360
Speaker 3: Well, let's let's slow down a little bit. That they's

380
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 3: have to face a Toronto Blue Jays team, which, by

381
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 3: the way, has their own version of Cam Schlitzler in

382
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 3: Treyy Savage, who I've been arguing for days should definitely

383
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 3: get a start. There are some people questioning, well, do

384
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 3: you want to put a kid out there? I don't know.

385
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 3: Sliller looked pretty good. He's you know, he's a he's

386
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 3: a rookie, and he looked all right. So I think

387
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 3: that there's a there. Sometimes is in the postseason a

388
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 3: bit of an over reliance on experience, and Cam Schlitzler

389
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 3: tonight showed the entire baseball world the value of stuff.

390
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,400
Speaker 3: Moxie vlo I thought in his postgame interview with Buster

391
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,639
Speaker 3: Rolney was really interesting. He was kind of hinting at

392
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 3: maybe just different things he was hearing from his buddies

393
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 3: back at New England. Of course he was from Massachusetts.

394
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 3: I thought that was a really interesting sidelight and subplot

395
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 3: of the game. But my goodness, everything after arriving to

396
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 3: the ballpark today. It's so funny how postings in baseball works.

397
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 3: Aaron Boone is just everything's in advice for him. There's

398
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 3: such tension, one loss away from maybe facing some serious

399
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 3: questions about his job, and then he entrusts the least

400
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,800
Speaker 3: experienced starting pitcher on the roster in the biggest game

401
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 3: of the year, and he simply deals in a way

402
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 3: that basically no other postseason pitcher ever has. It was

403
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 3: just a remarkable performance, pinpoint command, and just the Red

404
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 3: Sox it never felt like they really had a chance tonight,

405
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 3: which is saying a lot for a team that certainly

406
00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:59,959
Speaker 3: in the opening game of the series found a way

407
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 3: to get to the Yankee pen. I just thought that

408
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 3: was sheer dominance tonight from Cam Schlitler.

409
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 4: JP. Let's stay in this series a second. I mean,

410
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 4: obviously ten and four regular season win game one, and

411
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 4: then we look at Game two, Raphaela. The decision to

412
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 4: bunt is one we first guest on air, and as

413
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 4: they pack up the gear for the long offseason, we

414
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 4: bring it around again. Between that and not trying to

415
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,919
Speaker 4: score after the I mean a great play by Chisholm,

416
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 4: a couple of things in that inning that may have

417
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:34,120
Speaker 4: changed their fortunes and sent baseball into a spiral.

418
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,719
Speaker 3: Well, you're right, mikeh and I think that they're If

419
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 3: we're gonna look at the big picture of the Red Sox,

420
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 3: they they got to this spot, I believe because of

421
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 3: fundamental execution and an excellent manager in Alex Korra. Let's

422
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 3: remember that their their by brand name best player when

423
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 3: the season began now plays with the Giants, and rock

424
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 3: Field evers their best player at his peak during the season,

425
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 3: Roman Anthony is injured and not available. And so if

426
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,920
Speaker 3: I'm being honest here, the Boston Red Sox would have

427
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 3: had to have played a perfect series in my estimation,

428
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 3: to win it and to beat the Yankees. Usually you

429
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 3: look at the and again story hasn't really good at

430
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 3: bats this series, so did Bregman, but the rest of

431
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 3: the lineup really never got going in a big way.

432
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 3: Nate Eaton had a nice series, but there was just

433
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 3: not that top to bottom depth that the Yankees have,

434
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 3: and I think we just saw it, and whether it

435
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 3: was even Volty having a moment early on in the

436
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,359
Speaker 3: series in the first game A Judge, of course, I

437
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 3: thought was of all the series that he played in

438
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 3: last year's postseason and then to this one, this is

439
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 3: the best series he's played in the last couple of

440
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 3: years in the postseason. So the Red Sox don't have

441
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:56,199
Speaker 3: an answer to Aaron Judge. It turns out that they

442
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 3: didn't even have an answer to Anthony Volpi and this

443
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 3: particular series. It's just the Red Sox. And you're right,

444
00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 3: there was some missed execution plays, but they would have

445
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 3: had to play, in my estimation and absolutely perfect series

446
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:13,360
Speaker 3: for them to win. They did. They kind of got

447
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 3: on the board with like an early birdie in the round,

448
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 3: so to speak, by winning with Crochet on the mound

449
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 3: and Chapman coming in behind them. But they just did

450
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 3: not have the depth in my view, to be able

451
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,479
Speaker 3: to just play the rest of the series straight up

452
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 3: and win against the Yankee swing for swing. They had

453
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 3: to do something crafty and different. They tried, they failed,

454
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 3: the better team won. And the better team now that's

455
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:41,439
Speaker 3: going to face Blue Jays is the New York Yankees,

456
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,439
Speaker 3: and that's going to be one heck of a series

457
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 3: against a rested but somewhat weary Blue Jays team that

458
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 3: may probably will not, if I'm being honest, probably will

459
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 3: not have the services of Bobashett in this next.

460
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: Round, EMLLY Network inside of John Paul Morosi, our guest

461
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: Jason Smith, Mike Harmon, live from the Fox Sports Radio studios.

462
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to the ninth inning of the

463
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,359
Speaker 1: Cubs and the Padres today, because as soon as this

464
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: play happened, I said, the ABS challenge system can't get

465
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,880
Speaker 1: here fast enough. Three nothing, top of the ninth inning

466
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 1: home run to lead off the inning for the Padres,

467
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: and then Xander Bogertz gets punched out on a call

468
00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,679
Speaker 1: where the ball wasn't even close to being a strike.

469
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 1: Now that changes the inning and changes the direction of

470
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 1: the game. Next two batters are hit by Keller, he

471
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 1: comes out of the game. Cubs wind up getting out

472
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: of the inning, but John Paul a big difference from

473
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: first and second and one out to bases loaded and

474
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 1: nobody out, which likely it would happen because you know,

475
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 1: Keller couldn't you know, find the plate after that, So

476
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:43,880
Speaker 1: he hits two guys, comes out of the game. Craig

477
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 1: Council takes them right out of the game. That should

478
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,640
Speaker 1: have been bases loaded, nobody out for the Padres down

479
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: three to one in the top of the ninth inning

480
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 1: changes everything.

481
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 3: And of course then the play and again you never

482
00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,160
Speaker 3: know how the how the rest of the inning unfolds.

483
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 3: But rich comes in and that was it barely got

484
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 3: Corona Worth on that slow roller. It took a really

485
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,880
Speaker 3: really good play by Seaw to get him. You're right,

486
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 3: it's it's a miss call. There was a miss call

487
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 3: yesterday at a pivotal moment in the Tigers Guardians game.

488
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 3: It's it's unfortunately always has been part of part of

489
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 3: the game. To be honest, it's less a part of

490
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 3: the game now than it's ever been, and next year

491
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 3: it'll be even less. We're just we will still have

492
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 3: some mistakes. That is inevitable that the human element is

493
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,159
Speaker 3: still alive and well in baseball and has been for

494
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 3: a long time. The entirety of its existence effect. But

495
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 3: you hate to see that you hate to see a

496
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 3: call that that swings the game at a really crucial point.

497
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 3: And you're right, you never know how that ending unfolds

498
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 3: if Boguards is on vaze, as he should be, especially

499
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 3: in light of what happened after that. But I think

500
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 3: that the Podres also they did not get on the

501
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 3: board until the final inning, and I think that's that's

502
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 3: a very difficult way to try to win a winner

503
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 3: take all game. I think of the of the results today,

504
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,880
Speaker 3: for me, the most stunning one was was the pod Race.

505
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 3: Was the Podreys losing. I thought they were gonna win

506
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 3: the game. Uh, the Podres only getting seven hits. I

507
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 3: thought that was a very very surprising outcome. Obviously a

508
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 3: lack of extra base power. Only two extra base hits

509
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 3: in this in this game for the for the Podres.

510
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,959
Speaker 3: That for me actually was so two doubles and one

511
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:29,920
Speaker 3: in the one home run. It's just there was not

512
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,680
Speaker 3: enough pump in at a time of year where you're

513
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 3: gonna have to ask some slug more often than not

514
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 3: to be able to win winton ball games. So that

515
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 3: that to me, of the three results today was the

516
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,960
Speaker 3: most surprising, And and you're right, it's it could have

517
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 3: easily gone differently if if a call had been ruled correctly.

518
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 3: But it's asking a whole lot to be able to

519
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 3: make a three run comeback in the in the top

520
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 3: of the ninth in a decisive game when you really

521
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 3: didn't do much at all offensively in the first eight innings.

522
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, it'll be jerious see what they do in the offseason,

523
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 4: as only the Cardinals and Pirates had fewer home runs

524
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 4: this season than in lineups. That was the lamentation from

525
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 4: the local San Diego things. Sky's falling radio is always

526
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 4: fun jp.

527
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,400
Speaker 3: To be fair, I love Luis Rias and the ability

528
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 3: to make to make contact, but you need more than

529
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 3: a contact bat at first base if you're gonna win

530
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 3: the World Series. And that's and I think that's where

531
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 3: they fell a little bit short, that they need that

532
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 3: first base spot. I love Louis awesome player, but I

533
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 3: think they probably have to upgrade there at that particular spot.

534
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I made finishing top ten and team batting average

535
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,679
Speaker 4: does you no good when you really need a big hit.

536
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 1: Could you have the Guardians who finished at the bottom

537
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 1: and they were in and they were nearly into the

538
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 1: next round of them second to twenty six. This year,

539
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: they were nearly to the next round of the playoffs.

540
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were. They were kind of the exception and

541
00:26:58,080 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 3: in a lot of different ways. I mean, And that

542
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 3: to me is it's so interesting, guys, that here we are,

543
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 3: and in some ways I love this part of the game.

544
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 3: We have seen two completely unprecedented playoff runs in back

545
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 3: to back years, the Tigers last year, the Guardians this year.

546
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:21,440
Speaker 3: Statistically that they were just not supposed to happen. And

547
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 3: I do think and listen, it's like, what are the

548
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:27,320
Speaker 3: chances of a less than one in one hundred outcome

549
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 3: happening in back to back data sets? I realized there's

550
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 3: thirty different data sets, thirty different teams. But the fact

551
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 3: that Tigers made the playoffs last year and they had

552
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 3: less than one percent chance of making it, and the

553
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 3: same with the Guardians one year later just might finally

554
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 3: tell us that this beautiful sport of ours is it's

555
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 3: very difficult to predict. And while predicting things is a

556
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 3: good endeavor and in fact allows you to plan and

557
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 3: help make decisions of your front office person, this is

558
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 3: probably a game that should just be enjoyed and predicted

559
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,440
Speaker 3: and scripted because man, that's a lot of randomness in

560
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,560
Speaker 3: back to back years. That would suggest to me that

561
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 3: we should leave a little bit more space for the

562
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 3: surprise and for for elements like that, because it really

563
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,959
Speaker 3: those two teams, Tigers last year Guardians this year are

564
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 3: a big reason why this is such a beautiful sport.

565
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 1: All right, so it's time for you to make three

566
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 1: big predictions in the next few seconds.

567
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 3: You ready, I am one hundred percent ready. Let's go.

568
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 4: Okay, the Alcs will be who, the Nlcs will be who.

569
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,200
Speaker 4: And give us your Lions prediction for this week you

570
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 4: Lions insider, you all right?

571
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,880
Speaker 3: Mariners will meet the blue Jays. That's what I've got there.

572
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 3: The Marriage will meet the blue Jays. The the Phillies.

573
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:49,680
Speaker 3: I believe they're going to find a way to beat

574
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 3: the Dodgers. The Phillies will meet the Brewers. I think

575
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 3: that's gonna be a fun series two if it plays

576
00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:00,479
Speaker 3: out that way. And then the Detroit Lions this weekend

577
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 3: will triumph by a score of thirty one twenty one.

578
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 3: I'm going a little higher scoring than I typically.

579
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 4: Wow, that's way highway he's hitting the over which is

580
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 4: forty nine and a half, and the spread is ten.

581
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 3: They're playing in Cincinnati against the Bengals. By the way,

582
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 3: that game interesting and these are very rare things that

583
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 3: I know. I don't know a lot, but I do

584
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 3: know that typically AFC games are supposed to be on CBS,

585
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 3: but that will flex the Fox Baby because they know

586
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 3: the national audience wants more Lions. They want more Lions

587
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,479
Speaker 3: on national TV, so they flex them into the four

588
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 3: twenty five slot. Lions Bengals, the Detroit Lions thirty one,

589
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Bengals twenty one, and it'll it'll be a

590
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 3: very robust weekend of sports in my great city. And

591
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 3: of course they're all playing on the road, the Lions

592
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 3: and the Tigers, but the Lions of Cincinnati the Tigers

593
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 3: in Seattle. I think that Tiger's final way to split

594
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 3: the first two games, but the Mariners eventually prevail in five.

595
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 1: This could be and John Paul, this could be a

596
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 1: big weekend for Michigan, a big week for Michigan over

597
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: Ohio in general. You know you already had this, You're

598
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: gonna have it on could have it on Sunday again. Yeah,

599
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,000
Speaker 1: to be a big Michigan overall.

600
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:20,840
Speaker 3: Filo taken on the whole state. What we need is

601
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 3: the next Fiftons Cavaliers playoffs. Deers Well have to wait

602
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 3: for this one for a while. This, by the way,

603
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 3: is only and I always love these cross sport dynamics.

604
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 3: Only the second time ever that a in the four

605
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 3: major sports that a Detroit team has played a Seattle team.

606
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 3: The previous time was was the Jim Caldwell coached Lions

607
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 3: who went out to Seattle, and I believe the final

608
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 3: score was twenty six to six. It was a fairly

609
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 3: bland game as yet January seventh, twenty seventeen. It looks

610
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 3: like the Lions did all their scoring on two Matt

611
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 3: Prade bilgals. There was there was a lot of uh

612
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 3: uh and Doug Baldwin big catch there at the end

613
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 3: from Russell Wilson's there you go. So that was that

614
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 3: was That was the box score. Some goodness now eight

615
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 3: years ago.

616
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: John Paul Morosi on Twitter at John Morosi as always, buddy,

617

618
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:20,720

00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 2: I dig that.

627
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 4: Final score of the Phillies inter squad. No, just kidding

Speaker 4: you got j P.

629
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you. There goes John Paul Morosi, and

630
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: the drama has not stopped the forty nine Ers and

631
00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 1: the Rams in overtime, the Niners with a twenty six

632
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: to twenty three lead after a field goal. The Rams

633
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: faced with a four than one inside the red zone,

634
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: they decide to go for it on fourth and one.

635
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: How did it turn out?

636
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 2: Not belong to?

637
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: How's the answer? And what's trending?

638
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 5: It was not good for La as the Niners stop

639
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 5: that fourth and one on their own eleven yard line.

640
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 5: Rams were knocking on the door to score. It was

641
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 5: a nice thirty eight thirty eight yard pass from Matthew

642
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 5: Stafford to two to out well to get them downfield,

643
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 5: but San Francisco makes another stop, another crucial stop.

644
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 1: They win it twenty six to twenty three. Who to

645
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: thunk it? None of you, none of us, None of us.

646
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 5: We're thinking.

647
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 4: I thought it was going to be forty eight seventeen

648
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 4: rams be the it were really that number.

649
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: It was unreal.

650
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 5: And there was another hit while you guys were talking

651
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 5: to JP Morosi on Mac Jones, the first sack of

652
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 5: the game for the Rams, and I really was like,

Speaker 5: hundred and eighty nine yards, three touchdowns, no interceptions either.

661

663
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 5: and forty two yards.

664
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 1: San Francisco improves.

665
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 5: To four and one, Rams fall to three and two.

666
00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,720

Speaker 2: Play Fox Sports Radio The Jason Smith Show with my

700
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,320
Speaker 2: best friend Mike Harmon. Yeah, I mean that was a

701
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:31,879
Speaker 2: tush push, just inverting the uh. The Niners pull off

702
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 2: the upset over the Rams twenty six twenty three.

703
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: The Rams had a chance and could have kicked the

704
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: game tying field goal that would have extended the game.

705
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: But on fourth and one, they'd go for it from

706
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 1: the from inside the fifteen yard line. And it was

707
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 1: a bad play call from the beginning. Right away. I

708
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: first guessed it. I said, where is the yard going

709
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 1: to come from? Everybody is stacked the line of scrimmage there.

710
00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 1: A yard is not going to come out of this play.

711
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,759
Speaker 1: But the Rams decide, Hey, fourth and one, let's go

712
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,360
Speaker 1: for it. Let's be bold, and this is how it

713
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 1: turned out.

714
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:09,399
Speaker 7: One for the Rams. Niners lead by three, a chance

715
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:13,040
Speaker 7: to win it with a stop. Here it overtime. Stafford

716
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:15,840
Speaker 7: gets under center at the eleven yard line. He takes it,

717
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,320
Speaker 7: he turns, he gives the Karen Williams, he gets packed.

718
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 3: I think he's short, Tim, I think he's short. And

719
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:23,680
Speaker 3: the forty nine ers stored the field.

720
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 4: It is all over.

721
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,319
Speaker 3: The forty nine Ers have won it in.

722
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 2: Over time here in La.

723
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: I just want to let you know, Tim, Yes, it

724
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: was short, all right, so Tim knows. I think Tim

725
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: now knows that play was short. Tim the play was short.

726
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 4: He thought about it, thought about it, I mean very

727
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 4: slow developing play.

728
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 3: Yes, it was.

729
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 1: It was an awful play call. Again, the Niners were

730
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 1: stacked to stop it. They had called time out. I

731
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,839
Speaker 1: don't see how the Rams thought this is gonna get

732
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: a yard. But this is why, again, this is why

733
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,439
Speaker 1: the tush push is such a big deal and why

734
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: it's a big advantage when you can pull this off.

735
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 1: I bet you Sean McVay is walking off the field

736
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 1: right now, going, you know what, screw it, We're gonna

737
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 1: do the tush push. We're gonna because I can't have

738
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: that again. Cole stanfordhad and skip leg day Kyron Williams.

739
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 1: Two bad play, two big plays. Is fumble going into

740
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: the end zone could have won the game for the Rams.

741
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,080
Speaker 1: Uh he gets stopped here on fourth and one. But

742
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 1: again the tush push that this is. This is why

743
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: the Eagles win. It's why the Eagles win games. It's

744
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 1: why plays like this you get the third and one,

745
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,880
Speaker 1: fourth and one. The Eagles are unstoppable because they can

746
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 1: continue to run a play like this. And really, I

747
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 1: don't understand why other teams haven't picked it up. I

748
00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 1: really don't. It's not like the Eagles have ownership over

749
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:44,279
Speaker 1: the play. It's when you saw teams running uh, you

750
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: know when when you would have the quarterback come out

751
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 1: of the game, when Ronnie Brown would run wildcat up

752
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 1: when the wildcat came into the league, other teams did

753
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: the wildcat. There was no problem. Other teams did the wildcat.

754
00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: Most teams tried it. Okay, we really don't have the

755
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,959
Speaker 1: personnel for it, but okay, but you saw other teams

756
00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,160
Speaker 1: try the wildcat. This is a play that you can

757
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,840
Speaker 1: easily figure out what to do. Like touch, push is

758
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: a pretty easy play. Get your line in one, you

759
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 1: going down figuring pushing, you can do it. I don't

760
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: know why all the other teams in the NFL haven't said, oh, well,

761
00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 1: if they do it, we're gonna steal that play, cause

762
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 1: it's gonna get us a yard on fourth and one,

763
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,800
Speaker 1: a third and one. All the time. We're gonna figure

764
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 1: out how to pull this off. We're gonna install it

765
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 1: during training camp, we're gonna practice it, we're gonna do X,

766
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:28,799
Speaker 1: Y and Z, were gonna do all of these things.

767
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,440
Speaker 1: I don't know why other teams haven't done this, I

768
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,359
Speaker 1: really don't. I don't know if they feel like, well,

769
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: we're infringing on the on the Eagles, you know, hey,

770
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna say, hey, back away, this is our play.

771
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 1: I don't know why other teams haven't done that.

772
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:42,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean in this case, I guess I understand it.

773
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:46,800
Speaker 4: With Matthew Stafford kind of like the fact that Philip Rivers,

774
00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 4: for as great as he was, you knew there was

775
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 4: never gonna be a quarterback sneak with it. With Matthew Stafford,

776
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:53,799
Speaker 4: I think we're kind of in that same boat right

777
00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,320
Speaker 4: that we're not gonna see it and then it just

778
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,399
Speaker 4: becomes a question of where the ball's going. And again

779
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 4: the hand off being as slow at it as it was,

780
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 4: that you were able to plug the gap and you

781
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:08,360
Speaker 4: had multiple guys coming from the second level to crash

782
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,200
Speaker 4: the party and keep Williams from getting to the first down.

783
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 4: But a league wide yeah, the fact that that isn't

784
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 4: a more widely.

785
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 1: Used and.

786
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:25,360
Speaker 4: Perpetrated move, I guess some of it owes to the

787
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 4: larger question that we keep having about practice time and

788
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 4: scaling that back and your reliance on your offensive line,

789
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 4: the cohesion of your offensive line because it's got a click, right.

790
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,320
Speaker 4: The fact that we haven't seen a bunch of penalties

791
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 4: called after the incidents of earlier in the two weeks

792
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,680
Speaker 4: ago is kind of curious. We'll see when that first

793
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 4: one comes out against the Eagles, But to this point,

794
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 4: now they're running variations of it right now and all this,

795
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 4: I mean, I.

796
00:39:57,160 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: Mean, I don't see how this is like it's a copycat.

797
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,360
Speaker 1: If the NFL wasn't a copycat league, I would say, what,

798
00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 1: But everybody copycats everything and they.

799
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,360
Speaker 4: Don't do it, especially this which has what a ninety

800
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,759
Speaker 4: success rate.

801
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 1: I don't get the rams they got to own this loss.

802
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 1: They gave this game to the forty nine multiple times.

803
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: You want a big quarterback hot take coming off of

804
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,280
Speaker 1: this game, Oh, we got it for you. Next, Chasing
