But I 50 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: lead this hour from Los Angeles and from the desert 51 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: to the sea to all of southern California. We start 52 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: there a knight in the NLDS. It was gonna be 53 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: a knockout night if the Dodgers could win the late game. 54 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:30,519 Speaker 1: The Phillies in town, beaten and broken, mocked by their 55 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: fan base after an embarrassing couple of games in Philly, 56 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: and the Phillies looking to the only time we use 57 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: this term is in sports stave off, stave off elimination 58 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: against the Doyers. So out of if you're watching it, 59 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: I was on TBS, so whatever that's worth. Maybe you 60 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: watched it. Maybe not, but Kyle Schwarber, Kyle Schwarber, who's 61 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: not gonna win the National League MVP, but he'll finish 62 00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: runner up. Kyle Schwarber Homert not once, but twice. Now, 63 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: not all home runs are the same. You know, you 64 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: have like Yankee stadiums, like Williams Sports, like a little 65 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: league field, and then there's bigger ballparks, and then you know, 66 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: Dodger State has become a hitter's park. He used to 67 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: be a pitcher's park. Now it's a hitters park. But nothing, 68 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: nothing can match the majestic nature of a towering shot 69 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: that actually it upset Tommy Lasorda because it hit Blue Heaven. 70 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: The ball was hit so high it actually skimmed Blue 71 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: Heaven and Losorda yelled down, what are you doing? Towering shot? 72 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: It cleared the right field pavilion at Dodger Stadium, called 73 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: the bleachers for most other people, but the pavilion out 74 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: there at Dodger Stadium. In a three run fourth inning, 75 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: a game changing three run fourth inning, as Kyle Swarber 76 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: got it done and Philadelphia will not be swept, a 77 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 1: domination situation, a win over the Doyers in game three 78 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: of the National League Divisional Series on Wednesday night. There 79 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: it was the first schwarp bomb of this postseason, and 80 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: it led all of the National League in home runs. 81 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: Of course, in the American League had cal Raley, but anyway, nonetheless, 82 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: Kyle Schwarber, big home run there, big home run night, 83 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: and the first time run the Dodgers have allowed here 84 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: in these playoffs to shorebur of course, and it's been 85 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: pretty good about keeping the ball in the park. But 86 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: Schwarber snapping an over eight skid in the National League 87 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: Divisional Series, and he took a ninety six mile hour 88 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: fastball and sent it to the heavens off Yoshinobu Yamamoto 89 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: and Schwarber becoming just the second player to home or 90 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,599 Speaker 1: over that pavilion at Dodgers Stadium as Pops got it 91 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: done back in the old days Willie Stargel nineteen sixty 92 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 1: nine and did it again in nineteen seventy three for 93 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: the pet sparkpipes. You know, it was a long time 94 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: ago because it was the Pirates who had a good team, 95 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 1: and they haven't had a good team in a very 96 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 1: long time. But so there you go. Paul went out 97 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: of the ballpark which is very hard to do. Dodger Stadium. 98 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 1: Game four will be a quick turnaround in the best 99 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: of five series. And we played later on Thursday, late 100 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 1: afternoon on the West coast, six o'clock on the East coast, 101 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: three o'clock at Dodgers Stadium local time. And the game 102 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: started here Phillies Aaron Nola. He pitched two innings. That's it. 103 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: But it was really Ranger Suarez who came in and 104 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 1: the lone ranger on the mate. I had one run, 105 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: five hits over five innings and got it done. But 106 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: the better story is in the losing locker room, and 107 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: so that is where we will go. The better story 108 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: always in the losing locker room because that's where the 109 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: drama is. And we live for the drama. It's all 110 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: about the drama o rama. So we'll start there. The 111 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 1: question for the esteem panel, who gets the largest part 112 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: of the Dave Roberts blame Bacon rapped hot Dog. And 113 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 1: if you've ever been to a game in La, it 114 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: doesn't matter whether it's Dodgers or anything. Outside there's people 115 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: with carts and they are happing the cart. Hot Dog, 116 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: hot Dog, hot Dog. That is what they that's the 117 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 1: sign right there. All right, So on this one, I've 118 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: got Buka to Beppo Autumn and puffy sticker, and we'll 119 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: throw all of these things together and we are going 120 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: to make some heartburn medication, because watching the Dodgers off 121 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: and inspires heartburn. So a, why don't we just start 122 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: with the man on the mound. The man on the mound. 123 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: You're the big Baffo Soco, big stud on the mound. 124 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: You are the number one pitcher for the Dodgers, Yamamoto. 125 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: And this is not a kid's birthday party. You did 126 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: not need to turn out to be a pinata in 127 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: that inning the Dodgers. He got an early lead as 128 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: Tommy Tanks went deep there went and runs nothing. But 129 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: you still have a lead. And every inning that goes 130 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: by where the Phillies do not score, the tight took 131 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: his syndrome works for those guys get a little bit tighter, 132 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: litle bit tighter, and a little bit tighter. So he 133 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: needed Yamamoto to go Einstein Brothers serve up a bunch 134 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: of bagels on the scoreboard. Now, he did start out 135 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: pretty good, retired nine of the first ten hitters. Then 136 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: in the fourth inning right then in the fourth inning. 137 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: How did that go? Not good? He wandered into a 138 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: Buca di beppo kitchen. I didn't know they had this 139 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: at Dodger State. Apparently do they got everything else there, 140 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: So they have a Buka di beppo kitchen. And Yamamoto 141 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: walked in there and he put on some cooking clothes. 142 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: You know, you had the cooking hat, the whole thing. 143 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: And he actually served up a meatball. And I want 144 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: to imbellish it because you know talk Rado can embellish it. 145 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: It was the size and I'm not going to go bigger. 146 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: It was the size of Jupiter. And Schwarbert put on 147 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: a bib and very odd to see this. You don't 148 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: know what this is. But kaswarb one of the BattleBox 149 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: he had a bib on and he smashed it to 150 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: the moon, to the moon, and suddenly the entire vibe 151 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: flipped on the game. The ball actually landed. We checked 152 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 1: with NASA. It landed somewhere in Pasadena. The baseball landed 153 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: somewhere in Pasadena. And so it wasn't just Yamamoto the 154 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: Dodger bats mister seven hundred million dollar man show. Heyl 155 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: Tani had as many hits as you and I had 156 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: Oero for five. He's patting a buck seventy four, a 157 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: buck seventy four in this playoffs it is Freddie Freeman, 158 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: Oh for three, Freddy's batt in two twenty two and 159 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: it's a quarter of the side of the Devil. And 160 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: those are a couple of your superstars, the Philly you 161 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: give credit where credits You mentioned Rangers four as the 162 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: lone Ranger who came in after Aaron Nola's started, pitched 163 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: a couple innings and shut the Dodger lineup down, mowed 164 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: them down like child's play. And it's always fun when 165 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: the Dodgers do not play one of the plus because 166 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: this era, you see Dave Roberts over there with that 167 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: we'll figure it out later a look on his face, right, 168 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: Robert's always standing there like waiting for a door dash 169 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: delivery from Emmy FAMMI rather from Femmy to give him 170 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: the door dash. No urgency right vintage. Now, as for 171 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: the Phillies, I would like to nip something in the 172 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: bud right now. I'm partaking in some of the some 173 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: of the narrative coming out of Dodgers Stadium and a 174 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: lot of the bloviating cheese steak loving pretzel eating Philadelphia 175 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: sportsmans are like, Wow, the Phillies have all the momentum. 176 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: Now they've got all the momentum. The only momentum I 177 00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: know is Uncle Mo, and he lives over in Jersey. 178 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: I used to know this guy named Ozzie momentum, but 179 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: he kind of retired from the show, so I don't 180 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: know any other momentum in that momentum does not exist 181 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 1: in sports. I will die on that mountain because I'm 182 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: right and everyone else is an idiot. Momentum is simply 183 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: an after the fact explanation. If you believe in momentum, 184 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: then the Dodgers should have won this game. They had 185 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: all the momentum. They won the first two games. They 186 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: had nothing leading this game. You'm a motor retired nine 187 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 1: of the first ten batters. There is no such thing 188 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 1: as momentum. It is merely an explanation for after the fact, 189 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: meaning it is ignored when the team that is alleged 190 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: to have all the momentum loses. For example, we'll get 191 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 1: to the American League later on next hour. But the Yankees, 192 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: I was told by Dark Jeter on Fox the Yankees 193 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,559 Speaker 1: had all the momentum in that series because they won. 194 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: They scored a bunch of runs late in the blowout 195 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: Game two, and then they came back in one game three, 196 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: and so how'd that work out? It doesn't, It doesn't exist, 197 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: all right. Now, now we get to the good stuff. 198 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: Now here's a batting practice fastball. As a longtime radio 199 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: professional text me from another location, Mallard. He says, your 200 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: night is made, and I said, you know what, You're right. 201 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: We had the rare and appropriate sighting of playoff Kershaw. 202 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: I am still getting messages from you idiots about a 203 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: monologue I did when the Dodgers did a mock state funeral, 204 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: when kurshed up it's just final hope game, and I 205 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: pointed out what a failure Kershaw has been as a Dodger. 206 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 1: I was still got a name of it this week. 207 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: I got an email the other day, a couple days 208 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: ago from So, I heard your monologue. You know it 209 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: always says I used to like your show, but which 210 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: means you never liked my show. Right, you never liked 211 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: my show? But whatever? Fine. So Kershaw was brought in. 212 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: He was tasked with the Dodgers were trailing. He was 213 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: tasked with keeping La within arm's length, to keep them 214 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: in the game down three to one, give them an opportunity, 215 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: allow them a chance to come back in the game. 216 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: Against the Phillies, bullpen set up the choke factor. How 217 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: do you set the choke factor up? You're within striking 218 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: distance and that's what you gotta do. Okay, So that 219 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 1: was what he was asked to do, Kershaw. So you 220 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,199 Speaker 1: know what I like, charity. I'm going to be charitable. 221 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: And you get a hit, You get a hit, you 222 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: get a home run, you get a home run, you 223 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: the whole thing. The Philly hitters I actually saw on 224 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: the Turner broadcast. Their eyeballs looked like saucers. It was 225 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: like saucers, very accommodating Clayton Kershaw. In fact, six of 226 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: the phillies twelve hits, half of the hits for the 227 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: entire gate came against playoff Kershaw, Are you idiots defending 228 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: this guy? He got absolutely shelled. Your little hero got shelled, 229 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: you little god, your little Demi god got shelled. J. T. 230 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: Riamuto and Kyle Swarber hit bombs. Just classic, just classic. Anyway, 231 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: here is Clayton Kershaw pointing out that he was bad. 232 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: Take a listen. 233 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 3: Oh it's just a tough yeah, tough couple of the 234 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 3: seventh good played by Tayo. And then yeah, I just 235 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 3: did make enough good pictures. I was battling command. You know, 236 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 3: it's it's hard when you're trying to throw strikes as 237 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 3: opposed to get people out. 238 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:32,719 Speaker 4: So that was. 239 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, just wasn't funny, Okay, just not a funny thing. 240 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: All right, here's the question, how did you react to 241 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: Clayton Kershaw wetting the bed? He wetted the bed yet 242 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: again at Dodger Stadium in October. So that was nostalgic 243 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: with a capital N. And it's fitting that should be 244 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 1: his final outing as a Dodger. That should be it. 245 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: Either they're gonna get gonna lose this series, the Phillies 246 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: gonna come back and win the next two games and 247 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: Kershaw should go away retire after that, or the Dodgers 248 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: win this series and Kershaw should not be on the 249 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 1: roster in the National League Championship Series. He's washed up. 250 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: But if you want to break it down even deeper, 251 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: you know what that really was watching Clayton Kershaw on 252 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: the mound in October baseball, That is autumn in Los Angeles. 253 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: It is autumn in Los Angeles. Now the rest of 254 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: the country gets pumpkin spice lattes, you get crisp cool air, 255 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: you get leaves changing colors, the signs of the seasons 256 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles. You know that it's autumn when Clayton 257 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: Kershaw is writing the vomit comet over the skies around 258 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: Dodger State, and that is autumn in La Clayton Kershaw 259 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: come boom to the boom, just like that. At this point, 260 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: it's muscle memory for Clayton Kershaw. It's like he can 261 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: do it blindfolded. It even looks like he's blindfolded. On 262 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: the mound in every October, the man steps on the mound, 263 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: he's got the shoulders slump, the face looks like he 264 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: just found out someone keyed his brand new tesla. You know, 265 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: Kershaw's serving up for let right down the middle, right 266 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 1: down the middle, batting practice fastballs. He called those the 267 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: five thirty fastballs, right down the middle. And the phillies. 268 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: They weren't so much swinging bats up there. They were 269 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: swinging tennis rackets, is what they were doing. And despite 270 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: this rich catalog of suck, every single time It is 271 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: the most fascinating thing the study of hero worship. Every 272 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: single time the Kershaw apologist in southern California crawl out 273 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: from under their palm trees and they give the same speech. 274 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: I'll give out the number here and you know, I'll 275 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: open up her phone calls. Of course, the Kershaw marching 276 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: and shout of society won't call in because there's really 277 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 1: nothing you can say. But I know the speech anyway, 278 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: I've heard it so many times over the last fifteen years. 279 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: I don't need you to call up and give me 280 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: the speech. It's well, you know, but ye, yeah, but yeah, 281 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 1: but he's a Hall of Famer, yeah but yeah, but yeah, 282 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: he's done so much for the city. Yeah but yeah, 283 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 1: or you have his Dave Roberts fault, Yeah but yeah, 284 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: but yeah, but yeah. Okay, I've heard it all. I've 285 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: heard it all. I've seen it all. Okay, Right, so 286 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 1: he did a lot for the city. Great, so did 287 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: the guy who invented the snuggie. Uh, you want to 288 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: put him in the Hall of Fame. Doesn't mean I 289 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: want him pitching in a postseason game. I don't. I don't. 290 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: I doubt the mayor of Barf City and the numbers 291 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: since twenty twenty three. Kershaw's era in the postseason is horrific. 292 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: Since twenty eighteen, he's got an ERA five point one, 293 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: and since twenty twenty three has earned run average is 294 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: forty two point eight. That's not a misprint. Forty two 295 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: point eight postseason era since the start of the twenty 296 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: twenty three postseason. That is baseball armageddon. And and the 297 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: body of language with Kershaw is another great part of this, right. 298 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: Nobody does it better the I just gave up another 299 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: bomb face than Clayton Kershaw. He's got it down. It 300 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: is art. It is performance art by Clayton Kershaw. The 301 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,439 Speaker 1: head down, that little lip twitch thing that he's got 302 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: a little shuffle around the mound, you cue the organ music, 303 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: the mock funeral, and as Jim Nantz would say, tradition 304 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 1: unlike any other. Now that would be the that should 305 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: be it. And they're gonna give him like seven statues 306 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 1: because the Dodgers are all about that action now, So 307 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 1: why not give Kershaw a statue of him with the 308 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: head down, the shoulder shrug and all that worst big 309 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 1: game picture of the modern era. And it's not even close. 310 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: The guy is a picasso on a Wednesday night against 311 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,880 Speaker 1: the Rock He's at Dodger Stadium and against the Phillies 312 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: in a playoff game in October on a Wednesday night. 313 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: It's a finger painting. It's a kindergarten piece of art, 314 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: is what it is. And they had to dig up 315 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: the mound after every postseason Shelly, it's essentially a crime 316 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 1: scene when Kershaw so bad, guys, He's bad, all right. Now, 317 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: last word to Chicago we go and this this was 318 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,959 Speaker 1: not a closed out game. It could have been, but 319 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: believe it or not, the Cubbies for your Femi and 320 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: Eugene in Chicago, and Tree and all my guys in 321 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: the mallad militia there in Chicago. The Cubs showed that 322 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: they are not ready to just roll over and go 323 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: on vacation and go down to cancuon tee times on hold, 324 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 1: as Chicago put up a four run spot on the 325 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 1: Brewers start at Quinn Priester in the first thing. But 326 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: this series, what is going on? All these runs scored 327 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: early and then not a whole bunch of runs scored 328 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: after that. But Quinn Priester on the mound was amazing 329 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: for the Brewers. In the regular season in the first inning, 330 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: and then the Cubs had to hold on. They scored 331 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 1: all of their runs in the first inning and did 332 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: just enough to win by the hair on their chinny 333 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: chin chin as they got a strong effort from the 334 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: bullpen there. The Brewers did, but not enough so they 335 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: couldn't come all the way back four to three the 336 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,719 Speaker 1: final in favor of the team from Chicago, so we 337 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: get a game four later on on Thursday. Now, after 338 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: the game, Quinn Priester he playing the blame game. He 339 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: pointed the finger entirely at himself. He said, quote everyone 340 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 1: else played real well, with the exception of myself. That's 341 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 1: entirely on me. Close quote all right, question, does Brewers 342 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:24,959 Speaker 1: starter Quinn Priester taking the blame work for you? So 343 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: the way I'll answer this is, I do enjoy athletes 344 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: just admitting they sucked. I think that's important. I'll give 345 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: you a puffy sticker for owning it. That said, it 346 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: does not change the fact that he shriveled up like 347 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: a grape in the sun. Who This is a guy 348 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 1: that had been big balls, Bob our guy from Vegas 349 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: big balls all regular season. And so I'll give you 350 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: a little bit of a golf clap. I'll call you 351 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: a mensch. Congratulations, you're a mensch for saying that they 352 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: don't hand out like parade floats and all that for 353 00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: quality quotes. In Milwaukee had opportunities, like they were playing 354 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,719 Speaker 1: with matches. Eventually they got burned here and now they 355 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: got to sweat it out. Right, Now you got to 356 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: sweat it out. You get you know, game four suddenly 357 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: becomes a bigger deal. I would play Game four like 358 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: it's Game five and you have Game five in your 359 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 1: back pocket. But the Cubs, now they can smell blood 360 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 1: in the ivy. Should not be blood in the ivy. 361 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 1: Maybe Doc Mike puts them out there in the ivy. 362 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: But Chicago, they've turned this thing into a little bit 363 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: more of a street fight. Not quite there yet. There 364 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,719 Speaker 1: is no such thing as momentum. But in terms of 365 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 1: circling back to Quinn Priester taking the blame and all that, 366 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: a guy that dominated during the regular season. Remember, as 367 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 1: the baseball marketing slogan from years ago went legends are 368 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: born in October, Well legends also die in October. If 369 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: you want reference, look at Clayton Kershaw for an example. 370 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 1: So you've got to do better, and you've got to 371 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: be better, and there's no guarantee this guy gets another start. 372 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 1: That could be all she wrote. That could be the 373 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 1: end of the road in terms of playoff baseball for 374 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: Quinn Priester. It is the Ben Malor Show.

And a reminder, 428 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: this is the National League Hour breaking down the mostly 429 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: the Dodger Phillies game. But because that's that series. Wow, 430 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: do you want to be kidding me? Yeah? Well, but 431 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 1: also the Cubs and the Brews. You want to talk 432 00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: about that. I watched both games and slipping back and forth. 433 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 1: They're a little Chile in Chicago. It's getting to October. 434 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: Nowns there you little cold La not so much, not 435 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: so much. But the Dodgers serve up some meatballs there, 436 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 1: vintage Kershaw performance, the dwarf Man writes, And this guy's 437 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 1: a big time comic, he says. Whenever Turnshaw is on 438 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,719 Speaker 1: the mound, they always cut to a shot of Sandy Kovax. 439 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:24,120 Speaker 1: That is so crazy. When Kofax is there for the playoffs, 440 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: they fly him and he lives in Florida, they fly 441 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: him in for the playoffs, and that you're right, it's 442 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: like they have a production meeting before every playoff game. 443 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: Is all right with perch Shaw's in cut to Sandy Kofax, 444 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: and the Darfman points out, as if these two are 445 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: in the same universe. I know, it's so stupid. Sports 446 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: Plus tells us that Pasadena is about ten miles from 447 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:50,600 Speaker 1: Dodger Stadium. So yeah, Schwarber's home run landed. It actually 448 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: landed on Colorado Boulevard, right near that cheesecake factory on 449 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: Colorado Boulevard. Is amazing, Nature Boy says, I gotta admit 450 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: that he answers the call of the while he's yeah, 451 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: a ranger. Ranger is a cool name, he says, Rangers 452 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: a cool name, and the Dodgers just need to stave 453 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 1: off eighth inning relief pitchers and they'll be fine. That's 454 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 1: what they gotta do. What else do we have to see? 455 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: Page nin This guy Donut. I think we found Kershaw's 456 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,360 Speaker 1: burner account. The Donut I believe is the name there. 457 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: He's a very heard, he's got his dodger once, he's 458 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: he's a little shrine to Kershaw, a little fanboy shrine 459 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 1: to Kershaw. What a dope? What else do we have? 460 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 1: This is a I laugh? Oh god, So I love 461 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: this job. It's because of people like that that I 462 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: love this job. The people that just are losers, Oh 463 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,719 Speaker 1: my god, I love the losers. Big Lou rites in 464 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: from the LBC, says Clayton Kershaw. His pitches looked similar 465 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: to Mallord pitching at the Inland Empire sixty six ers game. Well, 466 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: Big Lou, first of all, you're wrong. You're referring to 467 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: the pitch. I believe that was in Bakersfield with the 468 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: old Bakersfield Blaze, with Rod, the Ambassador of Bakersfield. We 469 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: went out there throughout the first pitch years ago, had 470 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: a great time. It was magical and hopefully I'm hoping 471 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: if things work out with our buddy Mike in New Hampshire, 472 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: and in the Leprechaun, we pushed back our Boston sojourn. 473 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: We want to honor Masshole Mickey who passed away last year. 474 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: And hopefully we can go to a WU Socks game 475 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: and like throw out the first pitch there. That'll be 476 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 1: like the next time, hopefully if all things line up 477 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 1: in the summer of twenty twenty six, and I will 478 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: show everyone the velocity, the ferocity that I have on 479 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: the mound. Hugh on the five, all right, since it's 480 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: been my exact comment when Kershank got on the mound 481 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: was Kershaw is going to end his career barfing? And yeah, 482 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: that's exactly what happened. Mark, the full name guy says 483 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,679 Speaker 1: two two is a third, not a quarter of or 484 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: one force of the devil six sixty six Shobert really 485 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: caused you some brain damage?

And 517 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 7: with that being said, I think all the energy was 518 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 7: wasted in his first innings.

How about the fact that guy's 535 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: cost him three championships? How about that who is. 536 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 7: Better than Khaw?

My god, historically in the 544 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 1: baseball has been played since the eighteen eighties or whatever. 545 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: He's one of the worst all time in big games? 546 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: Who would you go to at that point when they're oh, 547 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: my god, when there's no ball behind them? You do 548 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: understand Kershaw shouldn't eve be on the roster? Do you 549 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: understand that? Like he's done, He's been done for years. 550 00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 7: That is how terrible the bullpen I will get. 551 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 1: Are you agree with mine? 552 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 7: That are? 553 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: But don't don't blame Day. I love ripping Day Roberts 554 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: as much as anybody, but don't blame Roberts on this. Okay, 555 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: Kershaws have grown up. He gives me so Kershaw sucks 556 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: so much, so you're admitting he blows that he can 557 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: only pitch one eating. The guy stinks that you snuck 558 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: him out there. You got an inning out of him, 559 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: and he's so bad. You gotta take Kershew off the mounta. 560 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: You're telling me that more. Alright, I got I gotta go. 561 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 1: Thank you, all right, I appreciate it's gonna go bang 562 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: my head against Isn't that great? Lorena? I mean, I 563 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 1: literally I was mocking the Kershaw marching in shout of Society, 564 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 1: and my man Jay immediately calls up and repeats the 565 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: talking points memo that I laid out word for word. 566 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: Oh my god, oh my god. Yes, all right, but 567 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: I do like the Dodgers, But unlike guys like David Vasse, 568 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: I'm actually critical of the Dodgers. I don't lick the 569 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: player's toes, unlike those guys. Jonathan in Delaware. There's sound 570 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 1: of it right there, Jonathan Delaware, he writes in He says, 571 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: all I have to say about Clayton Kershaw is Seriously, though, 572 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: is there a worse big game picture than him, especially 573 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: considering how good he's been in the regular season. I've 574 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: never seen anything like it. He always has the yips 575 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: in the postseason. I hope they start him every single game. Yeah, 576 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: he says Jonathan in Delaware, laughing at the Doyers. Well again, 577 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: he should not pitch again. They should just take him 578 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: off the playoff roster and that's it. Super Market Steve says, 579 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: what's your opinion or what's opinion rather? Do you think 580 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 1: incites more rage from the bleeding heart Dodger fan base? 581 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: Your opinion that Clayton Kershaw was overrated or my opinion 582 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: that Vin Scully was overrated. I've had people take swings 583 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: at me because I told him I didn't like Vin. Well, yeah, 584 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: the Vin thing's more offensive. The Vin things more offensive. 585 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: The people that think Kershaw is overrated or right. The 586 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 1: people that think Scully was overrated are wrong. See there's 587 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: a difference there. There's a point of demarkation with that conversation. 588 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: Texas Bryan, who's still mourning the loss of Luka Doncik 589 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: to the Lakers, He says, the Doyer's bullpen was so pathetic. 590 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: I swear I saw Sandy Kofax yelling down to Dave 591 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: Roberts put me in coach LA's cooked, Philly's got the juice. 592 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: Now there is no juice. Stop with that. Listen. I 593 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: love bashing Kershaw on the Dodgers when they play like that. 594 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 1: There's no woman. The Dodgers can come back, go win 595 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: with Glass. Now the series will be over. That's it now. 596 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: I personally hope there is a Game five this weekend. 597 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: I would like to see it because I love that situation. 598 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: The choke factor is very high, and I'm there for it. 599 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: Fat Daddy writes in he says, you nailed your monologue. 600 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: I was wondering, is there away? Dave Roberts is eligible 601 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 1: for the wild card and the next In the next round, 602 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 1: Daniel says. Vassay says, for every time Kershaw has a 603 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: bad outing, he can give an example of a good one. 604 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: Can we give you two on a debate? Get you 605 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: on two hundred? Debate about it soon. Well, it's harder 606 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,959 Speaker 1: to bait Vessa because he's buddy buddies with those guys, 607 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: so he's kind of compromised. So I'm not friends with 608 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,800 Speaker 1: those guys, so I can actually give an honest opinion. 609 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 1: When your buddies with him, it becomes a problem. It's 610 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: like Howard Stern. First, you know Stern lost it years ago. 611 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,399 Speaker 1: But when he was good at talk radio, he never 612 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 1: wanted to be friends with celebrities because he wanted to 613 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: ask him tough questions things like that. And it's true, 614 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 1: once he became friends with celebrities, his show was terrible. 615 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: That was the point his show started sucking when he 616 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: started becoming friends with all the people he used to 617 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 1: goof on and he wanted to be friends with him. 618 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 1: And so it's general, you gotta you gotta have some 619 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: separation from that, definitely, Rob writes in and says mallardly 620 00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 1: Dodgers cheerleader and sycophant. On Suicide Watch, he says about 621 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 1: about to lose Game four is going on. I don't, 622 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: I don't know what that means. I'm I expect him 623 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: to lose. I hope they win, but I expect them 624 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 1: to lose. I don't. I don't know what you're talking about, Scrooge, 625 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: says Ben. How can you not blame Dave Roberts. We 626 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 1: all know, oh, Kershaw does not show up in the 627 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 1: postseason yet. Roberts is the jackass who keeps on throwing 628 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 1: Kershaw out there, knowing he's got a decade of experience 629 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: choking away games when they met. Well, Roberts says, well, 630 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: I liked him in that spot. I liked him in 631 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 1: that spot, is what he says. It is the ben 632 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 1: malechow random Ryan writes in He's in Carolina, he says, 633 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 1: a plus in a five piece of smoked Carolina gold barbecue. Yummy, yummy, yummy. 634 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: Can I get some brisket wing? He says, barbecue wings. 635 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 1: I'll take that. Not a monologue. Didn't see any baseball 636 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 1: tonight because I was at work, but I'm pretty sure 637 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: it happened. Yeah, I did. It did, Actually, it did happen. 638 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,359 Speaker 1: There were I mean not. You know, it's all day. 639 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: It's like NonStop. It's like a lot of baseball from 640 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 1: like the afternoon to the nighttime, the whole of the 641 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:56,319 Speaker 1: whole shebang. So the Toronto Blue Jays, we're talk more 642 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:57,879 Speaker 1: about this as we go through the night. The Blue 643 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: Jays have eliminated, exterminated the Yankees from the postseason. The 644 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:05,800 Speaker 1: Yankees are out of the baseball postseason, and so the 645 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 1: victor goes to music and in the visitors' locker room 646 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 1: at Yankee Stadium, Toronto, celebrating with champagne. The Bubbly Bath 647 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 1: theres they advanced to the Final four of Major League Baseball, 648 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 1: and the Blue Jays cranked up the old boom box 649 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: in the locker room, and they were playing New York, 650 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 1: New York in the locker room, the iconic Sinatra song 651 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: there in a celebration to troll the Yankees. And sure 652 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: some Yankee fanboys will be triggered by that, But maybe 653 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: you should win some of these series and then people 654 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 1: can't be doing that in your ballpark. I'm just saying. 655 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:43,879 Speaker 1: I'm just pointing that out time now for the who 656 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,560 Speaker 1: am I? Game?
