The Boys 10 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 1: in Blue are now just two wins away from a 11 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:43,839 Speaker 1: trip to the World Series this year. The dream is 12 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: almost real. 13 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 3: Dodgers at Game three, so they take the lead in 14 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:50,840 Speaker 3: this series two games to watch. 15 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: Let's talk about how we got it done last night 16 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: with a prime pitching performance from Walker Mueller backed up 17 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: by our impeccable bullpen, and the boys set off some 18 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,919 Speaker 1: bombs into the chilly New York night sky Kik show 19 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: Hay Month see all Went Deep. It's Thursday, October seventeenth, 20 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four.

Thank you for listening 25 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: to Dodger Blue Dream Daily, the Quick Turnaround short format 26 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: version of my documentary about the baseball season, made in 27 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: real time as the season unfolds. I'm Richard Parks the 28 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: third and that's what's in. Going into the game yesterday, 29 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: there was some lingering doubt which Walker Buehler are we 30 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: going to see? Is this going to be but Tane, 31 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: the big game hurler that we know from postseason past 32 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: Or has his second Tommy John surgery set him back 33 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 1: too far. Well, in the early innings, Buehler was definitely battling. 34 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,799 Speaker 1: It took him fifty pitches to get through the first 35 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: two innings, but he was getting it done. 36 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 3: When Door two's and missus Walker Builder strikes out Crap 37 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 3: Siskolan door. 38 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: But when he struck out Francisco Lindor to get out 39 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: of a crazy jam in the bottom of the second, 40 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,799 Speaker 1: it was impossible not to feel the flow. 41 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,799 Speaker 2: Bueller's Day Off is just a movie. This is real life. Son. 42 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, that kind of seems like it's a little bit 43 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 4: of the cake Walker. He's trying to rediscover who he 44 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 4: is as a pitcher. 45 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: Max Munsey in a postgame interview. 46 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 4: At the same time, There's probably not anyone I would 47 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 4: rather have pitching in a postseason atmosphere than Walker Rueler. 48 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: The Dodgers had jumped out to a two zero lead, 49 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: but it's a weird thing about the postseason, especially when 50 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: you're in enemy territory and City Field is they were 51 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: booing Showhy when he got announced. 52 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 2: A two run lead can almost. 53 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 1: Feel like a deafist enter Keik cup bump. We don't 54 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: give a hight Halloween. 55 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: Hernandez kids a drive left field. 56 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 3: Nimmo's going back, He's on the track, He's at. 57 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: The is gone. 58 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 3: Kick k Hernandez again, the key k Homer the biggest 59 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 3: hit of the game. 60 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: Don't want to take Dodger manager Dave Roberts word for it. 61 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: After Kik's big bomb in the top of the sixth 62 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: inning to extend the Dodger lead to four to nothing, 63 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: the City Field crowd was swarming to the exits. I 64 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: saw video footage online, but sadly, for those Mets fans 65 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: who remained in attendance, the show must go on, and 66 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: it show did. Now. 67 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 3: It was last nineteen number towering drive down the line. 68 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 3: Otani's growing through it is gone. I'm just stick home 69 00:03:55,760 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 3: run into the second deck seven to h in Lay. 70 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: Shohy just hit a three run home run that was 71 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: so big and high and long. He's getting pretty quiet 72 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: at city fields, happen stunned. Postseason baseball crowds are a 73 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: little like the horses grazing in that one scene in 74 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: the novel Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy. You don't notice 75 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: they're there until they stop grazing. Speaking of farm animals, 76 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: the studs out of our bullpen helped get it done 77 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: last night. 78 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 2: Kopek took the ball in the fifth. 79 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 1: Then Brazier, trining one inning each for those three, and 80 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: to end it two from the rookie and Casparius, but 81 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: not before the funky one. El Panzon decided to do 82 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 1: a little adding on of his own. 83 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 3: Obviously, Max had a huge game. There's a towering fly 84 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 3: ball headed way back there, headed for the second back 85 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 3: Letsy with a no doubt homer on What a day 86 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 3: for him, What a day for the Dodgers. It's another 87 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 3: Route eight ton uhing in Game three. 88 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: And the most disgusted looking bat flip of the postseason, 89 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 1: so far from the funky one we call Max Munsey. 90 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: He's the batflip guy. You know, he's so much attitude. 91 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 2: It's awesome. 92 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 1: And let's throw a little bit more credit Walker Buehler's way. 93 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: He saw eighteen whiffs from the Mets in four innings. 94 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: That's more swing and miss in any postseason game since 95 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: two thousand and three. Another shutout for the Dodgers' pitching 96 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: staff and another blowout victory. 97 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 2: We could get used to this. 98 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: We now lead the best of seven series two games 99 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,280 Speaker 1: to one, so we need two more to advance to. 100 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: The World Series. But hey, we gotta stay humble. Last 101 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 2: night is. 102 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: Well last night like the place where we're playing baseball 103 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: right now, it's flushing going down the drain, although no 104 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: snakes were used in this eight zero victim. Time to 105 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: turn the page, mix a few more metaphors and go 106 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: on to tonight's game.
