0:00
Speaker 1: Playball, It's our number three, Talking Bay's Ball, It's our
0:07
Speaker 1: number three The Ben Mather Show. We got the Big
0:09
Speaker 1: Mother Meet and Greek coming up this weekend in Vegas.
0:11
Speaker 1: Hopefully you can make it. Details on the social media.
0:14
Speaker 1: I will not bore you with those details right now,
0:16
Speaker 1: but we'll be at a cool bar near UNLV from
0:19
Speaker 1: three o'clock till five o'clock. But here in our number three,
0:24
Speaker 1: do you believe the Cubs outfielder Kyle Tucker's slump is
0:28
Speaker 1: directly related to a hand injury which all of a
0:33
Speaker 1: sudden popped up out of out of the sky. We'll
0:36
Speaker 1: talk about that. Also, also talking baseball this hour, who
0:41
Speaker 1: leaked that Cubs right fielder Kyle Tucker's struggles were because
0:45
Speaker 1: of a hairline fracture in his hand. We'll talk about that.
0:48
Speaker 1: And also the most embarrassing moment of the week that
0:52
Speaker 1: goes to the Boston Red Sox manager Alex Korra. He
0:56
Speaker 1: said the Red Sox did not challenge the O's outfielder
0:59
Speaker 1: Coleton Kawser because he has an impact arm, and that
1:04
Speaker 1: that's because of scouting. That is blank. Red Sox end
1:07
Speaker 1: up losing that game because they did not challenge that
1:11
Speaker 1: particular baseball player will go there as well. Right now here,
1:13
Speaker 1: it is our number three, the crack Cubby, the case
1:20
Speaker 1: of the Crack Cubby. Welcome in the beginning of another
1:25
Speaker 1: hour of the Ben Mahler Show. We are in the
1:29
Speaker 1: air everywhere. That's right. You can't stop us the Malard monarchy,
1:38
Speaker 1: as we are occasionally lost in the shuffle coast to coast, border,
1:42
Speaker 1: the border, and beyond on the vast and muscularly powerful
1:48
Speaker 1: microphones of fs are emminating live from the wittle as
1:54
Speaker 1: we whittle the overnight hours of darkness down to here
2:01
Speaker 1: at the Fox Sports Radio Studios, as approved by not
2:04
Speaker 1: a Burner. Not a Burner approves that message and this
2:09

Speaker 1: to expresspros dot com. So our lead this hour is
2:37
Speaker 1: from sweet home Chicago, where the pizza is good and
2:40
Speaker 1: the sports are usually pretty mediocre. Now the Cubbies somehow
2:45
Speaker 1: won again. I was watching this game and came down
2:49
Speaker 1: to the ninth inning and it was a big defensive
2:52
Speaker 1: play at the end of the game. There the Cubs
2:54
Speaker 1: won again. They beat the brew Crew. They've now taken
2:57
Speaker 1: three in a row over the Milwaukee Brewers. The Brewers
2:59
Speaker 1: have cooled up and they had all the momentum. Why
3:03
Speaker 1: would the Brewers lose? They had all the momentum. I
3:05
Speaker 1: don't understand why the Brewers would lose. They had momentum.
3:10
Speaker 1: But that's not what we're talking about right now. That's
3:12
Speaker 1: not the story. The story is the demotion Derby, not
3:17
Speaker 1: demolition Derby. The demotion Derby and a follow up to
3:21
Speaker 1: a story we talked about in a previous episode of
3:23
Speaker 1: the show. If you've not been paying attention, maybe not.
3:26
Speaker 1: A brand new report, brand new report claiming that Cubs
3:32
Speaker 1: outfielder right fielder Kyle Tucker, and we talked about this
3:37
Speaker 1: the other day. Kyle Tucker has been benched for Malfeasan's
3:41
Speaker 1: at home plate and they say, well, he's just gonna reset,
3:46
Speaker 1: which is code for he sucks, so he's gonna reset.
3:49
Speaker 1: He's not playing very well right Nobody He's gonna be fine,
3:50
Speaker 1: He's gonna be fun. Well, now the story comes out.
3:55
Speaker 1: The plot thickens that Kyle Tucker was diagnosed in early
3:59
Speaker 1: June with a hairline fracture in his right hand out
4:04
Speaker 1: of my aching right hand manager Craig Counsel, who defected
4:09
Speaker 1: from the Milwaukee Brewers Council, a former Dodger, confirmed the
4:14
Speaker 1: story by saying that Kyle Tucker's injury, though is fully healed,
4:20
Speaker 1: fully healed. You wouldn't know that from reading the headlines.
4:22
Speaker 1: So let us discuss question for the esteem panel. Do
4:27
Speaker 1: you believe that Cubs outfielder Kyle Tucker's slump is directly
4:33
Speaker 1: related to his hand injury? So my views on this,
4:38
Speaker 1: I have Moscow Thanksgiving dinner and trained circus seal, and
4:47
Speaker 1: we will combine all of these things together and we're
4:50
Speaker 1: gonna make the Gabba gool. We're gonna make the Gabba
4:53
Speaker 1: gooul is what we're gonna right. So, first of all,
4:57
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you that being around baseball for a
5:00
Speaker 1: long time, much closer back in the day than I am, now,
5:04
Speaker 1: this is the most predictable story, the most predictable story
5:10
Speaker 1: you could have imagined. This is a humdinger of a
5:14
Speaker 1: go to excuse in baseball, or as they said when
5:17
Speaker 1: President Biden was in the White House there, it's misinformation,
5:20
Speaker 1: is what it is. Misinformation? Uh Tucker, let me tell
5:23
Speaker 1: you why this is ridiculous. So Kyle Tucker after the injury,
5:28
Speaker 1: after the injury, Kyle Tucker went out and batted three
5:32
Speaker 1: hundred three h two had a nine to thirty three
5:35
Speaker 1: ops for a full month after he suffered a right
5:40
Speaker 1: hand fracture. The slump did not start until after he
5:47
Speaker 1: was bawling for a month. So I asked the question, like,
5:55
Speaker 1: what what is that the injury took a month to
5:58
Speaker 1: kick in? Was he using some slow release adville that
6:02
Speaker 1: you gotta wait a month? And then he kind of wears, all,
6:04
Speaker 1: are we supposed to believe the fracture It had a
6:08
Speaker 1: thirty day activation window and then all of a sudden,
6:11
Speaker 1: after thirty days, Ah, my aching on my wrist. He
6:16
Speaker 1: was absolutely cooking for the cups for a month after
6:19
Speaker 1: the injury. Then suddenly Kyle Tucker, to quote the late
6:23
Speaker 1: great Timy Disorda, couldn't hit water if he fell out
6:25
Speaker 1: of an f and boat. And then he gets benched.
6:29
Speaker 1: So my response to the Chicago Cups story. Now this
6:32
Speaker 1: I don't believe this is a cup store. This is
6:34
Speaker 1: a cup related story. But my response is three words Russia, Russia,
6:41
Speaker 1: Russia as in Moscow, the Bolshoy ballet, choreographed spin or
6:48
Speaker 1: as the Great Jay Scoop would say, bull pucky, bullpucky,
6:53
Speaker 1: straight up bull pucky capital B. You know what this is.
6:58
Speaker 1: This is the baseball version you know of my dog
7:01
Speaker 1: ate my homework, right or my WiFi went out and
7:05
Speaker 1: I accidentally deleted the thing. And yeah, of course in
7:10
Speaker 1: this case talking about the dog ate my homework. The
7:14
Speaker 1: dog is a pinky fracture, right or what a wrist
7:17
Speaker 1: little wrist injury. And the month of August the ops
7:22
Speaker 1: three eighty one. So he went from nine to thirty
7:25
Speaker 1: three right after the injury for a month, and then
7:28
Speaker 1: he's at three eighty one in August and gainst bench
7:31
Speaker 1: and doesn't hustle dogs it with the cobs. G Man's
7:36
Speaker 1: just disappointed. You know, Chicago fan Tree in Chicago. By
7:40
Speaker 1: the way, Tree, you got to reach out to me.
7:42
Speaker 1: Tree is supposed to be in la He wants to
7:44
Speaker 1: come by the studio next week. You got to let
7:46
Speaker 1: me know, Tree so I can give you the details
7:47
Speaker 1: on that. But anyway, the guys in Chicago, that's a
7:50
Speaker 1: hearty town. I don't want a guy who's not hitting
7:52
Speaker 1: and not hustling and all that stuff. The only people
7:55
Speaker 1: that would buy the story that's out there are Country Bumpkins. Oh,
8:01
Speaker 1: he's just pressing because of the injury. No, Kyle Tucker's
8:06
Speaker 1: pressing because he's in a contract year and he's hitting
8:10
Speaker 1: like a backup catcher to a backup catcher at this
8:14
Speaker 1: particular point. Now, secondly, I would like to play with
8:17
Speaker 1: you one of my favorite games. It's a parlor game.
8:21
Speaker 1: The game is who leaked that Cubs outfielder Kyle Tucker.
8:27
Speaker 1: The reason he's struggling is because of the hairline fractor.
8:30
Speaker 1: Who leaked that story? So, as always, you start with
8:34
Speaker 1: the basics. You got to start with the bedrock, the
8:36
Speaker 1: building blocks. And there are two questions that have to
8:40
Speaker 1: be asked when you play the parlor game. The first question,
8:43
Speaker 1: numero uno, who stands the game? Who stands again? Now
8:48
Speaker 1: numero dos? Why now? Right? Those are the two questions,
8:51
Speaker 1: who stands the game and why now? And when you
8:53
Speaker 1: look under the hood, when you look under the hood
8:56
Speaker 1: of the car and you check the carburetor. There's only
8:59
Speaker 1: one answer, Team Kyle Tucker. Ding Ding ding ding ding bingo.
9:07
Speaker 1: That is Team Kyle Tucker. This is straight out of
9:10
Speaker 1: the Baseball spin doctor's handbook. You don't have to be
9:15
Speaker 1: some kind of high falutin, highly educated out of academia
9:18
Speaker 1: PhD in sports medicine or something else to figure out
9:24
Speaker 1: It's clear, as I understand the way these stories work,
9:27
Speaker 1: that Kyle Tucker's camp. I'm not saying it's Kyle Tucker himself,
9:30
Speaker 1: but somebody that is writing his coat tails, someone that
9:34
Speaker 1: is making their living off of his efforts. His camp
9:38
Speaker 1: is standing on the street corner with a bullhorn yelling,
9:41
Speaker 1: don't blame my guy, blame his bones. It's classic sporty scapegoating.
9:49
Speaker 1: Nobody does it more than baseball baseball players. Anytime somebody sucks,
9:53
Speaker 1: if it's a pitcher, it's he's tipping his pitches. If
9:57
Speaker 1: it's a hitter, he's got some kind of undisclosed injury
10:00
Speaker 1: that he's trying to play through. It's never that a
10:02
Speaker 1: guy just all of a sudden blows. It's never that.
10:05
Speaker 1: It's always either he's hurt or he's tipping something, or
10:10
Speaker 1: it always works that way. It always works that way.
10:13
Speaker 1: So the scapegoating is, well, he's not really stinking up
10:18
Speaker 1: like rotten eggs Wrigley Field because he's washed. He's stinking
10:22
Speaker 1: it up because he's wounded. That's the story. Yeah, that's
10:26
Speaker 1: the ticket, that's the sales pitch. You know what this
10:29
Speaker 1: is like. It's like when you show up late to
10:32
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving dinner. You don't say, yeah, yeah, I overslept. I'm
10:36
Speaker 1: sorry a little late. I overslept. No, no, no, you say, well,
10:40
Speaker 1: the traffic was just brutal. I'm sorry, my dear aunt.
10:44
Speaker 1: I'm sorry that the traffic was terrible. That's the cover story.
10:48
Speaker 1: You gotta have a fall, gotta have a fall. Guy. So, yeah,
10:52
Speaker 1: Kyle Tucker's riding the vomit comet. And we can explain
10:56
Speaker 1: that because a little cracked, little crack crack, and he
10:59
Speaker 1: cracked in foundation. And why now, why now he's timing,
11:05
Speaker 1: my friend, It's always timing. Kyle Tucker got his eyes
11:09
Speaker 1: right now. His eyes are locked in on the bulls eye.
11:11
Speaker 1: The bullseye is the ATM machine. Money, many money, make
11:16
Speaker 1: it rain, make it rain, money, money, money, he's walking.
11:19
Speaker 1: You realize how much money this man's looking at he's
11:22
Speaker 1: walking into the bank of Major League Baseball and he's like, hey, listen,
11:28
Speaker 1: you're the teller. I would like you to hand me
11:31
Speaker 1: five hundred million. There's chatter he's gonna get six hundred million.
11:36
Speaker 1: That's a lot of checkers, it's a lot of paysols.
11:42
Speaker 1: So he's going to market at the end of the year.
11:44
Speaker 1: And Tucker's agent in my head is like, hey, pay
11:47
Speaker 1: my man. He's not broken. He's just broken, if you
11:50
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So you gotta play the PR game.
11:52
Speaker 1: You gotta play the PR game. You can't let the
11:55
Speaker 1: narrative be Kyle Tucker is not even thirty years old
11:59
Speaker 1: and he's playing like a guy named Kyle from accounting.
12:03
Speaker 1: You can't do that. So you control it. You control it.
12:06
Speaker 1: You leak the injury out. You have useful idiots called
12:10
Speaker 1: baseball writers, and you leak the story out, and you just
12:12
Speaker 1: kind of go with it, and you put the fracture
12:14
Speaker 1: out there and you put it on trial, and suddenly
12:17
Speaker 1: Kyle's not garbage anymore. He's just unlucky. He's just unlucky,
12:21
Speaker 1: and he shouldn't be playing. And oh, you know, out
12:24
Speaker 1: of an abundance of caution, we should shut him down.
12:26
Speaker 1: Case clothes, case close. Now, the leak did not come
12:30
Speaker 1: from the Cubs. Why would the Cubs leak That makes
12:33
Speaker 1: no sense for them to leak that, right, because they
12:36
Speaker 1: didn't announce it a month earlier. So why did you
12:38
Speaker 1: hold that information. It didn't come from some random clubhouse attendant.
12:41
Speaker 1: I don't believe that. I don't this was orchestrated by
12:46
Speaker 1: the penthouse suite of the Camp Tucker right. A classic move.
12:52
Speaker 1: They are classic damage control. And if you don't believe that,
12:56
Speaker 1: I will I will tell you some of Lake Michigan,
12:59
Speaker 1: because I lake Michigan. So if you want to buy
13:01
Speaker 1: some of Lake Michigan, I'll say some of the lake.
13:03
Speaker 1: All right. Now, final thought, another great story from baseball
13:06
Speaker 1: this week out of Boston, and several of you were
13:10
Speaker 1: very upset that I did not address this issue in
13:13
Speaker 1: the previous episode of the show. A guy from Vermont,
13:18
Speaker 1: which is far away from Boston, but he said, oh,
13:21
Speaker 1: listen to your show. I said, I'm the only person
13:25
Speaker 1: that lives in Vermont. There's three people. There's Arnie Spanier
13:29
Speaker 1: and Ben and Jerry. That's it. Those are the only
13:30
Speaker 1: people live in Vermont. Any this guy, you you should
13:33
Speaker 1: have mentioned it all right. So for those who don't
13:35
Speaker 1: know the story, manager Alice Cora cheating asstro Alex Cora
13:42
Speaker 1: is still facing backlash for a decision he made earlier
13:45
Speaker 1: this week at Finnway Park. So it was the eleventh
13:49
Speaker 1: inning game the other night. The Red Sox are playing
13:53
Speaker 1: the lowly Baltimore Orioles, and the Red Sox had a
13:58
Speaker 1: pinch runner named Nick Eaton. Nick Eaton is the name
14:02
Speaker 1: and a quick guy, no name baseball player, so he's
14:07
Speaker 1: on third base, he's on third base. The Red Sox
14:10
Speaker 1: are trailing Baltimore four to three. They had sacrificed the
14:13
Speaker 1: runner to third. So there's one out in the inning,
14:16
Speaker 1: one out, and it's the eleventh inning. You're down by one.
14:21
Speaker 1: Roman Anthony, the chosen one for the Red Sox. He
14:23
Speaker 1: comes to the home plate area. He hits a fly
14:27
Speaker 1: ball that was estimated at two hundred and sixty five feet,
14:30
Speaker 1: so a routine flyball to center field, perfect type of
14:35
Speaker 1: flyball for a sack. Fly. Game is going to be tied.
14:37
Speaker 1: We'll play on to the twelfth inning unless the Red
14:40
Speaker 1: Sox win it. There not so fast, my friend. You see,
14:44
Speaker 1: just after the Orioles centerfielder Colton Kowser made the catch
14:48
Speaker 1: on the pop fly, he unleashed a wild throw that
14:54
Speaker 1: was completely offline. It was closer to going into the
14:58
Speaker 1: stands near third base than it was going to home plate.
15:03
Speaker 1: The throw ended up between third base and home plate
15:08
Speaker 1: and did eaton the pinch runner? Did nick eaton? Score?
15:13
Speaker 1: Known for speed now? He returned to the bag after
15:19
Speaker 1: pump faking that he was gonna score now the next batter,
15:22
Speaker 1: Another cheating astro Alex Bregman popped up, good afternoon, good evening,
15:29
Speaker 1: and good night. Game over Baltimore wins. So When peppered
15:33
Speaker 1: with questions about the clear of mouth feasance on what
15:38
Speaker 1: he did. Who's to blame for the silly strategy? Do
15:41
Speaker 1: you blame the runner? Do you blame the third base?
15:43
Speaker 1: Coach Alex Cora snapped, he said, quote, we prepared before
15:51
Speaker 1: the series and that's an impact arm talking about Colton Kowser,
15:56
Speaker 1: and we decided not to challenge him. Quote question Alex
16:03
Speaker 1: Cora admitting that the Red Sox did not challenge outfielder
16:09
Speaker 1: Colton Kowser of Baltimore because of his impact arm. Down
16:14
Speaker 1: by a run in the eleventh inning because of a
16:17
Speaker 1: scouting report is blank. So I wrote down my word.
16:22
Speaker 1: We're doing the word association game. My word is emasculating
16:27
Speaker 1: with the Capitol League. Emasculating with a Capitol League. It's
16:31
Speaker 1: also humiliating, like the Red Sox manager just admitted to
16:37
Speaker 1: the world that he is nothing more than just a
16:40
Speaker 1: middle manager. It's like what Joe Madden, the old Cub
16:43
Speaker 1: manager said when he was managing the Angels. It's like
16:46
Speaker 1: all these jobs, you're just a middle manager now and
16:49
Speaker 1: that's all. You're just doing what the nerds want. And
16:53
Speaker 1: so Cora admitted it. He said the game was essentially
16:56
Speaker 1: decided before the series started, that there's no feel of
17:02
Speaker 1: the game. Have a hunch, bet a bunch, there's no instinct.
17:05
Speaker 1: There's no competition. For one hundred and fifty years, baseball
17:10
Speaker 1: sold competition. Now it's the three ring binder. It says
17:15
Speaker 1: don't run, you don't run, period hard stop. It says
17:22
Speaker 1: we don't run. Poindexter said we shouldn't do it. The
17:26
Speaker 1: algorithm said we shouldn't do it. We shouldn't do it.
17:29
Speaker 1: And what does that make Alex Cora? That makes Alex
17:32
Speaker 1: kra a trained circus seal. That's what he is just
17:36
Speaker 1: imagine Alex with a little hat on his head and
17:39
Speaker 1: a red ball on his nose. Clap clap, clap, clap,
17:42
Speaker 1: clap clap, here's your fish. And this is what drives
17:46
Speaker 1: me nuts. And I know that this is just small potatoes.
17:48
Speaker 1: It's a regular season game in August, and my main
17:52
Speaker 1: rage will come when the big October baseball game start
17:56
Speaker 1: to me. It goes against the ethos of what this
18:00
Speaker 1: is supposed to be. Whatever you think this is supposed
18:03
Speaker 1: to be, that is not it, right, the whole spirit
18:07
Speaker 1: of sport athletic competition to test the boundaries of the
18:11
Speaker 1: human body. And he said, well, that's too dramatic, and
18:15
Speaker 1: maybe it is, but at least make the other guy
18:18
Speaker 1: make a play. Now again, I'm getting old or just
18:21
Speaker 1: an old head. But that's the way I fell in
18:24
Speaker 1: love with sports, testing whether or not you could get
18:28
Speaker 1: it done when the pressure was immense, right and there
18:31
Speaker 1: was a lot on the line to test the other team.
18:35
Speaker 1: It's one of the reasons that I love the old
18:37
Speaker 1: school way of putting the ball in play, making the
18:40
Speaker 1: defensive player make a play. Force competition that goes against
18:47
Speaker 1: that belief. Forcing competition goes against everything that these people
18:53
Speaker 1: they stand for instead, like the Red Sox are a
18:55
Speaker 1: great example. They had a moment where they could have
18:58
Speaker 1: tested a guy who has a really highly rated arm
19:01
Speaker 1: and impact arm, as Alex Corse said fifteen times, I
19:05
Speaker 1: could have tested it. The Red Sox punted. The moment
19:09
Speaker 1: was too big. They weren't ready for the moment because
19:12
Speaker 1: the simulation told them, don't do it. The simulation said
19:17
Speaker 1: don't do it now. Ac Cording to simulation, this guy,
19:20
Speaker 1: Colton Kowser would have thrown a perfect bullet right the
19:24
Speaker 1: home plate and that would have been it. Instead, the
19:29
Speaker 1: ball went sailing all right, sail away, sail away. That's it.
19:36
Speaker 1: And these people have been indoctrinated to the point that
19:40
Speaker 1: they believe their own bull crap. They believe that there's
19:44
Speaker 1: only one way to do this, and they're doing it
19:46
Speaker 1: the right way. And that's where the analytics has a
19:50
Speaker 1: hairline fracture, like Kyle Tucker wink wink nod nod of
19:55
Speaker 1: the Cups hairline fracture there, and nobody wants to talk
20:01
Speaker 1: about it. We'll have that conversation if you want, but
20:02
Speaker 1: nobody won't really in the game, they don't want to
20:04
Speaker 1: talk about it. It's called the clutch factor. According to
20:08
Speaker 1: the analytics, it doesn't exist that and a bat in
20:12
Speaker 1: the first inning is the same as in a bat
20:14
Speaker 1: in the ninth inning with two outs and two runners
20:17
Speaker 1: on down by a run or in this case, a
20:21
Speaker 1: fly ball, you're playing the outfield you have to make
20:24
Speaker 1: a throw is the same in the ninth inning as
20:26
Speaker 1: it is in the second. An it's not dummy, it's
20:32
Speaker 1: not you morons. But yet this continues, and it's only
20:37
Speaker 1: gonna get worse and worse because there's no other way
20:39
Speaker 1: to do it. There's only one way to do it,
20:40
Speaker 1: and you got to do it this way. If you
20:41
Speaker 1: don't do this way, you're dummy, and we'll kick you
20:43
Speaker 1: out of baseball. And that's it. You're done, right, And
20:47
Speaker 1: so you eliminate whether or not someone can choke because
20:51
Speaker 1: you don't put them in a position to choke. You know,
20:55
Speaker 1: I go back to the World Series last year. The
20:57
Speaker 1: Yankees choked the World Series away. They did, and the
21:01
Speaker 1: only reason they did that is because the Dodgers put
21:03
Speaker 1: the ball in play and forced them to make defensive places.
21:06
Speaker 1: But it wasn't by some kind of analytical design. It
21:09
Speaker 1: was the fifth inning and they were futzing around Aaron Judge,
21:14
Speaker 1: and you know the other Yankees, Garrett Garrett Cole not
21:18
Speaker 1: covering first base. We go through Volpi butchering a ball
21:21
Speaker 1: at shortstop. But the analytics would be like, ah, those
21:24
Speaker 1: guys are good players, they'll be fine. Volpi was a
21:27
Speaker 1: Gold Globe winner, and you got the highest paid pitcher,
21:29
Speaker 1: you got Aaron Judge of the MVP. And they all
21:32
Speaker 1: left up every one of them, left up right, every
21:34
Speaker 1: one of them. And so you don't know what you
21:38
Speaker 1: don't know unless you try. And yet the Red Sox
21:42
Speaker 1: are like they didn't try because Alice Cora has been programmed.
21:47
Speaker 1: That's that's the programming, right. And my favorite part is
21:52
Speaker 1: Cora is so obtuse that he doesn't even realize what
21:56
Speaker 1: he's admitted. He goes up there all cocky postgame and
22:02
Speaker 1: he probably tells the world you and I that listen,
22:06
Speaker 1: I managed the Boston Red Sox and I am irrelevant. Yeah.
22:11
Speaker 1: I just follow my orders. That's all I do. But
22:15
Speaker 1: good for you, Alex, congratulations. You're not a manager, because
22:19
Speaker 1: a manager would go up make their own decisions. You're
22:22
Speaker 1: just like a pr guy. And you clap a little
22:25
Speaker 1: bit in the dugout. You got your computer program and
22:28
Speaker 1: all that stuff. So why exactly are you one of
22:31
Speaker 1: the highest paid managers in baseball? Like, couldn't you get
22:35
Speaker 1: I don't know, Blind Scott or somebody or Mike the
22:38
Speaker 1: Leprechaun to manage the Red Sox if that's JD and Boston,
22:41
Speaker 1: one of those guys Mike in New Hampshire could manage
22:44
Speaker 1: the Red Sox. And for media relations, I guess that
22:47
Speaker 1: because he's kind of cool. The writers like him, and
22:50
Speaker 1: I imagine he'll likely feed them a lot of stuff
22:52
Speaker 1: off the record. But my god, a smile waved to
22:56
Speaker 1: the camera. He's like a character actor or a bad
22:58
Speaker 1: movie lines. You hit your mark, you know, don't you
23:02
Speaker 1: dare improvise? Do not improvise. That's not really preparation. It's
23:06
Speaker 1: like it's just a cowardly way to play baseball. All right,
23:10
Speaker 1: I've gone way too long. I just had to get
23:12
Speaker 1: that off my chest. It is The Ben Maler Show

Speaker 1: Day at Ben Mallard. Also the rain a FSR Tech
25:56
Speaker 1: Queen and Cooper Loop at a Bronco. Here's the malor
26:01
Speaker 1: Riddle of the day. When former Braves outfielder Jeff Francre
26:05
Speaker 1: was in the minor leagues number of years ago, his
26:08
Speaker 1: teammates all convinced him that one of their pitchers was
26:12
Speaker 1: blank and he believed it for a month. All right,
26:16
Speaker 1: that is the question. I'm a little scared to see
26:19
Speaker 1: what the answers are because I gotta tell you, I
26:22
Speaker 1: have a feeling that most of these answers I will
26:24
Speaker 1: not be able to read on the air, but I
26:25
Speaker 1: will be somewhat optimistic that a few of them will
26:29
Speaker 1: make the air. Andy from Lionel Lakes, Minnesota, he's honoring
26:35
Speaker 1: Angry Bill. He says the players convinced Jeff frank Kerr
26:41
Speaker 1: that one of their teammates was a nine year old girl. Yeah, Scrooge,
26:46
Speaker 1: says black Zilla. Who else do we have? An alien
26:49
Speaker 1: from the planet Vulcan from ferg Dog he was a
26:54
Speaker 1: sailor guardian from King Rory. Who else we have Mantai
26:58
Speaker 1: Teo's dead girlfriends first husband? All right? That was from
27:04
Speaker 1: Mallard prop guy, very funny. A big box store worker
27:07
Speaker 1: overnight from clam an alien guessed by alf the Alien
27:12
Speaker 1: ol Piner. Who else do we are? I see, I
27:15
Speaker 1: see JT. The wing Man's out there. He's not gonna
27:17
Speaker 1: be able to make the meet and greet though on Saturday?
27:19
Speaker 1: Who else up page down inca terrorist says the real
27:23
Speaker 1: Captain Kangaroo is the answer? Who else? Fudgi says a
27:29
Speaker 1: Mallard Riddle. Answer is an alien? So he went with
27:31
Speaker 1: alien as well. Eke in Roseville, Minnesota going with an
27:34
Speaker 1: Abe Lincoln. He convinced him he was Abe Lincoln. Freddy
27:38
Speaker 1: Krueger from Ozzie Waz in Western Australia. JT. The wing
27:42
Speaker 1: Man's answer was the legend of bagger Vance. That's the answer.
27:48
Speaker 1: Who else do we have? A drag queen? Guessed by
27:51
Speaker 1: Trucker Joe on the Highways and Byways of North America.
27:56
Speaker 1: Fat Daddy, who's an Angels fan, says that he thought
28:01
Speaker 1: that the other player was a cross dresser's day. Yeah,
28:05
Speaker 1: that's about well, he's not. No, that's not. But it
28:07
Speaker 1: is fat Daddy, So I guess he is the daddy.
28:08
Speaker 1: I guess fat Daddy. Would that would make him the
28:10
Speaker 1: daddy because he's fat Daddy, and that that would be
28:13
Speaker 1: that would make sense. What else do we have this?
28:15
Speaker 1: See page Dan, we'll skip over that one. Ard enough
28:19
Speaker 1: of that, Lorraina, do you have an answer? It's the
28:20
Speaker 1: malar riddle of the day. Former Major league outfielder a
28:23
Speaker 1: guy named Jeff Francre, mostly known for his days with
28:25
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Braves. He was in Triple A years ago
28:28
Speaker 1: and his teammates all convinced him that one of the
28:31
Speaker 1: pitchers in Triple A was blank and he believed it
28:34
Speaker 1: for a month.
28:35
Speaker 6: Royalty, Ben, they believe royalty Royalty.
28:38
Speaker 1: That's a great answer. Part of the Royal family. Is
28:40
Speaker 1: it royalty? Is that the answer?
28:43
Speaker 4: No?
28:43
Speaker 1: Uh, the correct answer. Jeff Frankcore, former Major League baseball player,
28:48
Speaker 1: was convinced that one of his teammates was deaf. Was
28:52
Speaker 1: hearing impaired for an entire month and he believed it.
28:57
Speaker 1: What'd you say? Yeah, that's a good that's a good bit.
29:02
Speaker 1: I like that. That's good. That's what you know. That's
29:03
Speaker 1: what men do. We bus pulls. I like that. That's
29:05
Speaker 1: a good story. It's a solid story. Why not? And
29:08
Speaker 1: I can't hear? I wonder if Frank Korr said anything
29:10
Speaker 1: around him that he wouldn't have said because he thought
29:12
Speaker 1: the guy couldn't hear. Because that's the group we're allowed to.
29:17
Speaker 1: You know, you might say something you would not say
29:19
Speaker 1: if you thought the person could hear you. And I
29:21
Speaker 1: can do that whole thing. The other thing is like
29:24
Speaker 1: when he was pitching, like Frank core, I guess he's
29:27
Speaker 1: in the outfield, so he didn't really matter if you
29:30
Speaker 1: wouldn't you see people talking to him and he's if
29:32
Speaker 1: he's deaf, like like you say, well, he's really good
29:36
Speaker 1: at reading lips. He's a really good lip reader. Yeah.
29:41
Speaker 1: So I have a prediction I would like to make.
29:42
Speaker 1: I mentioned that anytime a baseball player does not do well,
29:46
Speaker 1: they claim he's either tipping his pitches. If he's a
29:49
Speaker 1: pitcher or he's a hitter, they say it's hurt. I'm
29:53
Speaker 1: gonna predict that the Dodgers. The next couple of days,
29:55
Speaker 1: the story comes out that Shohel Tani is dealing with
30:00
Speaker 1: set back. There's some kind of thing of a jig
30:02
Speaker 1: or watch a mccollet that's not that good. I watched
30:05
Speaker 1: Otani pitch in Denver against the worst team in Major
30:10
Speaker 1: League Baseball, and someone named Hunter Goodman lit him up.
30:14
Speaker 1: Goodman had a big day at three hits, three RBIs
30:17
Speaker 1: somebody named Tanner Gordon opposed the highest paid player for
30:23
Speaker 1: the Dodgers and one of the highest paid players of
30:25
Speaker 1: all time. Otani and gave up one run in six
30:29
Speaker 1: innings that great Dodger lineup and O'tani got bumped his
30:33
Speaker 1: first start at Coors Field to give up five earned
30:36
Speaker 1: runs in four innings. Five earned runs in four innings.
30:41
Speaker 1: I feel bad for all those sports writers that you know,
30:43
Speaker 1: they had their their pants down for they were so
30:45
Speaker 1: excited when Otani came back to pitch. He allowed nine
30:48
Speaker 1: hits that tied a career high the raigning National Lyue
30:52
Speaker 1: MVP as a hitter he got He also got hit
30:56
Speaker 1: with a line drive on the I think got him
30:59
Speaker 1: in the leg the thigh area, and uh so there
31:03
Speaker 1: you go. That's uh Dave Roberts after the game was
31:07
Speaker 1: was pretty positive. Dodger's gonna play the podres this weekend
31:10
Speaker 1: in San Diego. Let's go to the phones and we'll
31:14
Speaker 1: say hello to Mike the Leprecaun. Hello, Mike the Leprechaun.

Speaker 5: from Lady Sideburns.
33:41
Speaker 1: Hi, Lady Sideburns. One of my favorite of all the
33:43
Speaker 1: women that have sideburns, Lady Sideburns is my favorite.
33:46
Speaker 5: I don't think that we have ever been asked this before.
33:49
Speaker 1: Okay, a new question. We always get the same questions,
33:52
Speaker 1: but this is a new question. Original question, sided.
33:55
Speaker 5: Crew, Which foot do you put your shoe on first?
34:01
Speaker 1: So when it comes to this, I'm ambidexterous. I am Okay.
34:05
Speaker 1: Some days I do the right foot, some days I
34:07
Speaker 1: do the left foot. It's not the same every day.
34:09
Speaker 1: It's not there's no rhyme or reason to it. It's
34:13
Speaker 1: some days I go right, some days I go to
34:15
Speaker 1: the left. That's Lorena gosh, this is a very difficult question.
34:24
Speaker 6: It's got to be the right foot first, because I
34:26
Speaker 6: just put my foot directly in the shoe. I don't
34:27
Speaker 6: even like bend down anymore. I just put the foot
34:30
Speaker 6: is a you know, it would be my right foot first?
34:33
Speaker 6: Then really really yeah, because I put my right foot
34:36
Speaker 6: over my left leg.
34:38
Speaker 1: Interesting, okay, cool, I am the opposite. See.
34:42
Speaker 5: I initially when I read the question, I was like, oh,
34:43
Speaker 5: I think I do both, And then I sat and
34:45
Speaker 5: thought about it, and it is my left foot every
34:49
Speaker 5: single time. That's the first one.
34:52
Speaker 1: Okay. Yeah, No, I'm more advanced. I can do the
34:56
Speaker 1: right or the left. You know, it's more open minded.
35:00
Speaker 1: Then you are cool. So that's it. But I, uh,
35:03
Speaker 1: what is next year's ask? Ben? Your questions are answers
35:06
Speaker 1: for the rest of the hour.
35:07
Speaker 5: All right, let's see we're gonna go with uh. This
35:12
Speaker 5: one is dangerous.
35:13
Speaker 1: A JT the Wingman, Hi JT. I met him at
35:16
Speaker 1: Many Malla Meet Grease. JT is a big fan of show.
35:19
Speaker 1: I met him in South Carolina. He was in Vegas
35:21
Speaker 1: last year. He's been all over the place.
35:23
Speaker 5: He says, what is your favorite guilty pleasure in Las Vegas?
35:29
Speaker 1: You know, I just love walking. I don't know it's
35:30
Speaker 1: a guilty pleasure. I love walking around Fremont Street. It's
35:34
Speaker 1: like a human zoo. They don't charge for it, and uh,
35:37
Speaker 1: and just walking around and seeing all the characters around
35:39
Speaker 1: Vegas and all that stuff. So I don't know, that's
35:41
Speaker 1: really a guilty pleasure. And I gamble, obviously, I've bet
35:45
Speaker 1: on sports and stuff like that.
35:46
Speaker 3: But I I don't know, I don't know.
35:48
Speaker 1: I guess I'm boring. I don't really nothing, I really
35:52
Speaker 1: really do. That's tad. But what about you, well, Lorena,
35:55
Speaker 1: I don't know if you talk about it, hold on
35:57
Speaker 1: year all right? Here we go here? Oh gosh.
36:01
Speaker 6: I love getting super fancy and then making sure everyone's
36:04
Speaker 6: staring as I walk around. And I love drinking the
36:07
Speaker 6: most egregious martinis in the nicest dresses.
36:10
Speaker 1: That's what I like, Dodd, Okay, you like? Are you
36:13
Speaker 1: one of those people that gets the glass that's down
36:15

36:40
Speaker 5: We go this question from fur dog?
36:43
Speaker 1: Hi, Fergie, would you.
36:46
Speaker 5: Rather only be able to scream or whisper when you talk?
36:49
Speaker 5: I mean the time, no normal voice? Yeah?
36:55
Speaker 1: Like both would both would suck. I guess I go screaming.
37:01
Speaker 1: I don't talk much if I if I had that,
37:04
Speaker 1: I wouldn't talk much. But you scream. I want people
37:06
Speaker 1: to hear you, so I'll go scream. What about you? Lorainer?
37:09
Speaker 5: Obviously screaming?
37:10
Speaker 7: Yeah, obviously, obviously I was gonna say whisper, But I mean,
37:16
Speaker 7: you guys both think so adamant about it, it's making
37:19
Speaker 7: me double guess my my pick.
37:20
Speaker 1: If you whisper, you might as well not be able
37:22
Speaker 1: to talk. You nobody can hear you, So give.
37:27
Speaker 5: You every time you scream, Like eventually people will be like,
37:29
Speaker 5: I don't want to hang out with that guy. It's
37:31
Speaker 5: very it's very loud and annoying.
37:32
Speaker 1: Good. What's next?
37:35
Speaker 7: Ye?
37:35
Speaker 1: What do we have?
37:36
Speaker 5: Alf?
37:37
Speaker 1: The alien? O? Piner? Hi? Alf? He would like him
37:39
Speaker 1: someday I'm gonna meet him. Go ahead, Yes, he would
37:41
Speaker 1: like to know fries or onion rings?
37:43
Speaker 5: And also, isn't it great when you get one of
37:45
Speaker 5: the other mixed in with your order.
37:47
Speaker 1: Yeah, And if I ever end up working in fast
37:51
Speaker 1: food and a few more bad shows, I probably will.
37:53
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be the guy that puts extra fries at
37:56
Speaker 1: the bottom of the bag. That's my move.
37:59
Speaker 4: You know.
37:59
Speaker 1: I read a one of these marketing books that I
38:01
Speaker 1: read a while back, and they said that five guys
38:04
Speaker 1: now five guys gouge as you and I don't go
38:06
Speaker 1: there anymore because it's too expensive. But they said part
38:08
Speaker 1: of the original appeal of five guys is they intentionally
38:12
Speaker 1: overfilled the fries because they knew the customer would it. Boy,
38:16
Speaker 1: I'm getting a lot, you know, I'm getting I'm getting
38:18
Speaker 1: more banged from my buck. And it was a little
38:20
Speaker 1: marketing trick and it worked until they raised the price
38:24
Speaker 1: of the fry and then people realize, well, I'm getting
38:26
Speaker 1: a lot, but I ain't going there. But yeah, friser.
38:30
Speaker 1: I eat many more fries than onion rings. The problem
38:32
Speaker 1: with onion rings is it's got to be properly fried
38:35
Speaker 1: and breaded. If it's too big, the onion ring and
38:38
Speaker 1: there's too much just the onion's too big. The onion
38:42
Speaker 1: to breading ratios got to be right, and very few
38:45
Speaker 1: places do it right. So I'll go potato, I'll go,
38:47
Speaker 1: I'll go the fry. Lorena.
38:49
Speaker 6: Oh, I love a good onion ring.
38:52
Speaker 1: Well, I don't get me wrong. I love a good un.
38:54
Speaker 6: Ring because like a dec you know what I'm saying,
38:56
Speaker 6: like frieser and everyday thing.
38:57
Speaker 1: But no, but I don't want to, Nancy, I don't
39:00
Speaker 1: want to eat an onion ring. That's the size of
39:02
Speaker 1: a bagel. I don't want really, I have.
39:05
Speaker 6: To like bite in one side and then go around like.
39:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, the onion is too big. That is
39:12
Speaker 1: bad onions ratio etiquette. No, go onion ring cool?
39:19
Speaker 5: Now see, I think the onion ring is is a treat.
39:23
Speaker 5: I like it, like lorraina, I don't know that I
39:25
Speaker 5: could every time get onion rings. Fries are more of
39:30
Speaker 5: an everyday thing for sure, but a bomb onion ring
39:34
Speaker 5: completely trumps like bomb fries.
39:38
Speaker 1: However, though the potato you get everything out of the potato,
39:43
Speaker 1: you get the fry, but you get potato wedges out
39:45
Speaker 1: of the potato, you get the crinkle cut. Those are
39:47
Speaker 1: considered fries as well. So like the onion ring, Yeah,
39:51
Speaker 1: there's thick onion rings and there's thin on your rings,
39:52
Speaker 1: but there's only a couple of different ways to make
39:54
Speaker 1: on your ring. The potato, though, you can even drink
39:57
Speaker 1: the potato and make it alcohol. So it's you go
40:00
Speaker 1: with the potato. All right, what's next?
40:02
Speaker 5: The King Rory would like to know. Have you ever
40:04
Speaker 5: bought a product off the TV?
40:07
Speaker 1: Oh? God, yeah, Well, I'm of the age like before
40:10
Speaker 1: before the internet. Back in my day, I loved late
40:13
Speaker 1: night infomercials. Me and my brother bought this car wax
40:17
Speaker 1: because the guy lit the car on fire with the
40:20
Speaker 1: wax and we thought, oh man, we got we got
40:22
Speaker 1: to beat, you know, our grandpa's car where we'll light
40:24
Speaker 1: it on fire. And so we bought some car wax,
40:28
Speaker 1: and I bought a couple of other things off those infomercials.
40:32
Speaker 1: But yeah, I bought uh, probably less than five, but
40:35
Speaker 1: more than two Lorena, shockingly.
40:39
Speaker 6: No, I know my grandma.
40:40
Speaker 1: Did you know?
40:41
Speaker 6: It's an old person thing, not not so much of
