Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Good afternoon, Wisconsin, and welcome to the huddle. It's time
- 0:10Speaker 1: to talk about the teams you love with the guys
- 0:13Speaker 1: you love.
- 0:13Speaker 2: That's us. Boys, that's us.
- 0:15Speaker 1: Watch us on YouTube.
- 0:16Speaker 3: Build content.
- 0:17Speaker 1: Just search Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
- 0:20Speaker 3: You are looking live.
- 0:21Speaker 1: Now, gather around because it's time to huddle up.
- 0:25Speaker 2: We know exactly what we got to do. All right?
- 0:28Speaker 1: Let's go out and kick some shit.
- 0:29Speaker 4: One, two, three.
- 0:30Speaker 2: We got some big plays coming.
- 0:31Speaker 3: What the hell's going on? Come on out here.
- 0:35Speaker 1: Yellow Weasel.
- 0:36Speaker 3: Quit calling the plays, all right?
- 0:38Speaker 1: It is time.
- 0:38Speaker 2: What do you think you are? I am. With Drew Olsen.
- 0:41Speaker 5: When he spoke, he commanded your attention and he commanded
- 0:45Speaker 5: your respect.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Bill Schmidt. That son of a gun is thick.
- 0:48Speaker 1: And Armin Sarian.
- 0:50Speaker 2: Daddy Sarian.
- 0:51Speaker 1: Welcome to the huddle.
- 0:55Speaker 6: Huddled up on a Tuesday. It's game day in the
- 0:58Speaker 6: good land. Game four tonight at the Trop Brewers trying
- 1:00Speaker 6: to close it out. and joined the 76 Reds as
- 1:04Speaker 6: the only team to sweep championship series and world series
- 1:06Speaker 6: in a single postseason. But the asterisk is that the
- 1:11Speaker 6: LCS back then was best of five.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Yes. Any time you can be in.
- 1:16Speaker 7: With the 76 Reds, I think that's great company to
- 1:21Speaker 7: be in. And the dominance of this crew, Drew, cannot
- 1:25Speaker 7: be understated. It should add a lot of positivity, and
- 1:28Speaker 7: I would think, optimism for Brewers fans that tonight will
- 1:32Speaker 7: be a celebration and tomorrow might be the least productive
- 1:35Speaker 7: day in Milwaukee sports history in terms of what you're
- 1:38Speaker 7: doing at work.
- 1:39Speaker 6: We kind of teed it up earlier, the discussion that
- 1:41Speaker 6: will happen if and when, when the Brewers win the
- 1:44Speaker 6: World Series.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Who's the MVP?
- 1:46Speaker 6: Who's our current electric superhero of the day? Do we
- 1:48Speaker 6: have to split the baby and give it half to
- 1:50Speaker 6: Churrio and half to Bobby Diesel? Because Gasser was incredible
- 1:53Speaker 6: yesterday and he's had some great starts. To go in
- 1:56Speaker 6: game three again on the road in a hostile environment,
- 1:59Speaker 6: And to put up zeros the way he did, to
- 2:01Speaker 6: face the minimum through six, he was at 75 pitches.
- 2:03Speaker 2: I was wondering if they were going to try to
- 2:05Speaker 2: roll the whole game with him. I thought he was
- 2:06Speaker 2: going to keep going. I thought he was going to
- 2:07Speaker 2: keep going.
- 2:07Speaker 7: And then when Sensatella came up and grabbed two for you,
- 2:10Speaker 7: it felt phenomenal. Didn't it almost seem, Murph was saying
- 2:14Speaker 7: earlier in the playoffs, this isn't tryouts, but didn't it
- 2:17Speaker 7: seem like everybody wanted to get a little taste last night.
- 2:19Speaker 2: And get in and get their... When he gets Louise, Laura,
- 2:22Speaker 2: the courtesy at bat last night, I'm like, all right,
- 2:24Speaker 2: get everybody in there.
- 2:25Speaker 3: Come on.
- 2:25Speaker 7: Ortiz, Laura, big crop pop. Gary Sanchez got to catch
- 2:29Speaker 7: it in it. You got to catch it for, for
- 2:31Speaker 7: Woody there at the end.
- 2:32Speaker 4: I thought he might throw. I meant it wouldn't, but
- 2:34Speaker 4: I thought to myself, can we get Gary in the mouth?
- 2:36Speaker 7: When that text came through from Drew, it was one
- 2:39Speaker 7: of the hardest I've laughed. Some of the hardest I've
- 2:41Speaker 7: laughed in quite some time was Sanchez going to pitch
- 2:43Speaker 7: last night before Woodruff.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Before Woodruff. He was going to open for Woodruff.
- 2:47Speaker 7: They had the human victory cigar lit for two innings,
- 2:50Speaker 7: warming up Harrison for the seventh and eighth and started
- 2:53Speaker 7: loosing him up in case they weren't going to be
- 2:55Speaker 7: able to have Woody finish that thing off. I was
- 2:58Speaker 7: going to give it to Gasser because he's not going
- 3:00Speaker 7: to get the shine he deserves, but on the stage
- 3:02Speaker 7: here tonight when they named the MVP. And I'm really
- 3:06Speaker 7: struggling to see who it's going to be. I would
- 3:08Speaker 7: vote Contreras. He would be my vote. I would very
- 3:13Speaker 7: much understand anybody's statement as to why they're voting for
- 3:16Speaker 7: Churio for the kind of at-bats and the incredible efficiency
- 3:20Speaker 7: that he's put together. But I think Contreras has just
- 3:22Speaker 7: been so dominant. Gasser last night was the reason why
- 3:25Speaker 7: you're able to have this celebration, though, here today. When
- 3:27Speaker 7: he faces the minimum, gives up the base hit the
- 3:30Speaker 7: D as the start. And then immediately is nails through Andrew.
- 3:34Speaker 6: He has erased on an ill-advised steel attempt, oversliding the bag,
- 3:38Speaker 6: which is awful with Caminero up ridiculous. And, and then
- 3:42Speaker 6: he walked a guy and then that guy was erased
- 3:43Speaker 6: in a double play, right? Double play wiped out two
- 3:45Speaker 6: base runners gone instantly. And maybe the best part is
- 3:49Speaker 6: after the fifth inning finishes out with six more outs
- 3:52Speaker 6: and just comes in and pounds the zone. Again, you
- 3:54Speaker 6: sounds a lot easier to say, just throw strikes.
- 3:57Speaker 7: Just play catch with the catcher, but it's game three.
- 4:00Speaker 7: You've now been sitting for 30 some minutes. They show
- 4:03Speaker 7: all the shots of him loosening up and trying to
- 4:05Speaker 7: stay fresh in the dugout for him to go out
- 4:07Speaker 7: there and finish those next two innings. You mentioned the
- 4:10Speaker 7: pitch count wasn't a problem, but that little rest and
- 4:12Speaker 7: layover isn't always the easiest thing. Robert Gasser going to
- 4:15Speaker 7: be your current electric superhero of the day. Call current.com.
- 4:18Speaker 6: The website, you see the superheroes on the side of
- 4:20Speaker 6: the van inside the van as well. Call current.com current electric.
- 4:24Speaker 6: And They got big news. Their winter special, winter upgrade special.
- 4:28Speaker 7: Save $ 200 on heat tape installation outside. $ 75 on.
- 4:32Speaker 2: Outdoor qualifying jobs. Callcurrent.com.
- 4:36Speaker 7: Get that house ready for the winter because it's coming.
- 4:40Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, and I said to myself, I said
- 4:42Speaker 4: that obviously you get all that.
- 4:46Speaker 2: Oh, someone's calling for a championship. The president's calling. Let's ride.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Come on. Let's get it in. You get all those runs. Fantastic.
- 4:52Speaker 4: And your gasser's like, all right, this is great. But
- 4:54Speaker 4: those are going to be different outs than you had
- 4:55Speaker 4: to get the rest of the night. Like, it's not
- 4:57Speaker 4: necessarily easy. Obviously, you want the lead. Obviously, that's a
- 5:00Speaker 4: great thing. But you have to try and remain focused. Obviously,
- 5:03Speaker 4: your arm's been cold. But you have to remain focused
- 5:05Speaker 4: and to still try and do your job. Being aware
- 5:07Speaker 4: of the situation of the score, those are different outs
- 5:11Speaker 4: than you've had to get all night, and he's done
- 5:12Speaker 4: a great job. He's been the Brewers' best starter without
- 5:15Speaker 4: a doubt.
- 5:15Speaker 2: In this playoffs.
- 5:16Speaker 7: And now he just gets to go and play like
- 5:19Speaker 7: seven on in the outfield grass. He's just slinging the
- 5:23Speaker 7: pigskin all around. They have some great shots of them
- 5:26Speaker 7: at practice here tonight at the Trop. What do you think?
- 5:29Speaker 7: More Brewers fans here tonight in Tampa, or are there
- 5:34Speaker 7: going to have been more at the game last night?
- 5:37Speaker 2: Ooh, that's a good question. I think more tonight. It
- 5:40Speaker 2: was as close.
- 5:40Speaker 6: A lot of people dipped on, they just thought, we'll
- 5:43Speaker 6: watch that one at a bar and then we'll go
- 5:45Speaker 6: for four and five.
- 5:46Speaker 7: It was as close to a 50-50 split as I
- 5:48Speaker 7: could possibly say.
- 5:49Speaker 6: And then today you got the newcomers coming. The question is,
- 5:53Speaker 6: will there be more Brewers fans in the trop or
- 5:56Speaker 6: at American Family Field?
- 5:58Speaker 2: Oh, I mean, American Family Field will be packed again tonight.
- 6:00Speaker 2: 31,000 they had, right? Yeah, that's what they had. They
- 6:02Speaker 2: don't sell them all, obviously.
- 6:03Speaker 6: The only seats where you can't see the scoreboard, they
- 6:05Speaker 6: don't want you sitting where you can't see the scoreboard.
- 6:07Speaker 2: But, I mean, they were first to fourth level last night, right? Absolutely, yes.
- 6:10Speaker 2: They were all the way through?
- 6:11Speaker 3: All the way up.
- 6:11Speaker 2: They just didn't sell bleachers and upper corner and corners.
- 6:15Speaker 2: Bleachers and corners. Were the seats assigned? Assigned, yeah. They
- 6:17Speaker 2: were assigned. I got assigned seats tonight. It's like wherever.
- 6:20Speaker 7: All right.
- 6:20Speaker 2: Armand, are you going back tonight, Armand? Yeah, I'll be
- 6:22Speaker 2: back tonight. So, assigned seats.
- 6:24Speaker 4: And, you know, people were milling around, obviously. Well, most
- 6:27Speaker 4: of the night, but mostly after the, you know, after
- 6:29Speaker 4: the beginning and a lot of people treat it as
- 6:31Speaker 4: an opportunity just to gather, be together. At first I
- 6:35Speaker 4: was getting a little bit like, you know, people were
- 6:37Speaker 4: talking and milling about and getting up and getting having, yeah,
- 6:40Speaker 4: having a normal life.
- 6:42Speaker 2: I mean, we're watching the game here, people.
- 6:43Speaker 1: All right.
- 6:44Speaker 2: This isn't supposed to be a fun thing. I'm just kidding.
- 6:46Speaker 4: But a little bit, uh, no, especially once the runs
- 6:49Speaker 4: came in, it was an electric atmosphere. It was an
- 6:52Speaker 4: awesome crowd pop crowd moment. it was weird because it
- 6:56Speaker 4: was like, you know, they're not playing, but it was
- 6:57Speaker 4: almost like you're, you're at a game. And there was,
- 7:00Speaker 4: it was as good of crowds are better as I,
- 7:03Speaker 4: you know, of all the 25 years of that stadium,
- 7:08Speaker 4: there've been a lot worse crowds for actual games. So,
- 7:10Speaker 4: It was pretty cool last night, and I'm sure it'll
- 7:12Speaker 4: be awesome again tonight. There's also probably not a bad
- 7:15Speaker 4: place to be celebrating here tonight. The Deer District shots
- 7:17Speaker 4: looked pretty cool. They looked pretty sweet.
- 7:21Speaker 6: Every bar is a brewer's bar right now.
- 7:22Speaker 7: Yeah, every bar is as close to a Kelly's Bleachers
- 7:25Speaker 7: as you can have. And I was at the Pottawatomie
- 7:29Speaker 7: Sportsbook for game one. Game four here tonight, their tables
- 7:34Speaker 7: are already sold out here for tonight, but you can
- 7:36Speaker 7: obviously go and watch it at the annex where we
- 7:39Speaker 7: do The Thursday night huddle, they'll have plenty of people
- 7:41Speaker 7: and drink specials going on. Wherever you do, I imagine
- 7:46Speaker 7: it feels like one of those nights, Drew, where people
- 7:47Speaker 7: are going to want to be around others, though.
- 7:51Speaker 2: There's a lot of celebration.
- 7:52Speaker 7: There's some good times that you can always have in
- 7:55Speaker 7: the personal celebration that you can have at home and
- 7:57Speaker 7: the cheers in the living room. But it feels like
- 8:00Speaker 7: one of those nights that people are going to be
- 8:01Speaker 7: trying to do anything they can to be out there.
- 8:03Speaker 2: I think so.
- 8:03Speaker 4: They'll be part of it, part of the moment. And
- 8:06Speaker 4: that's the key. It's being part of them all and
- 8:07Speaker 4: being together. You mentioned the tickets in Tampa. They did
- 8:12Speaker 4: look at TicketData.com, my favorite guy, TicketDataKeith on Twitter. They
- 8:15Speaker 4: spiked after the win, which he said was unusual because
- 8:19Speaker 4: usually for a home park, they drop. But then again,
- 8:22Speaker 4: that's the brewer's effect. And then they're dropping now slowly.
- 8:25Speaker 4: So the get-in price now is down to $ 7. 24 from
- 8:27Speaker 4: like $ 800 or $ 900 earlier in the day.
- 8:32Speaker 2: There you go.
- 8:32Speaker 6: That's the get-in price at the Trop. Our pal Red
- 8:35Speaker 6: Hot Tim Scott will be in the crowd tonight. Bought
- 8:37Speaker 6: himself a ticket. Billy, what did you see signs for parking?
- 8:40Speaker 6: What were they getting for parking around there?
- 8:42Speaker 7: They were online getting a couple hundred bucks on the
- 8:46Speaker 7: secondary market.
- 8:46Speaker 2: All theirs were sold out.
- 8:47Speaker 7: There was one spot that I saw somebody selling spots,
- 8:52Speaker 7: I think, for a hundred bucks. So it was high. However,
- 8:56Speaker 7: there were a lot of people that were just walking from...
- 8:59Speaker 7: God knows where. It seemed like we're going to park
- 9:03Speaker 7: wherever and we're just going to figure it out. I
- 9:05Speaker 7: saw two Brewers fans walking and my GPS said I
- 9:08Speaker 7: was still a mile and a half away from the stadium.
- 9:11Speaker 7: And he had the clear bag, so you knew where
- 9:13Speaker 7: he was going. So it's truly in the middle of nowhere.
- 9:16Speaker 7: So many times they say it's hard to get here.
- 9:18Speaker 7: It's hard to get here. Is it just that it's.
- 9:19Speaker 2: In the middle of an island? It really is the island.
- 9:22Speaker 7: I mean, it's that you got to drive across that
- 9:25Speaker 7: bridge on whatever it is, 275 or whatever it was
- 9:28Speaker 7: on the freeway. And I can assume during rush hour,
- 9:34Speaker 7: the four or five o'clock, six o'clock, right? When you're
- 9:36Speaker 7: trying to get over there for a game, you could
- 9:39Speaker 7: sit on that thing for an hour and a half.
- 9:40Speaker 7: Like it would be a, it could easily be the
- 9:43Speaker 7: parking lot that you would dread. And one of the
- 9:45Speaker 7: reasons why you wouldn't go, it's not a bad spot,
- 9:48Speaker 7: not a bad area. It's definitely not where you would anticipate.
- 9:52Speaker 7: There would just be a big stadium to hang out in,
- 9:54Speaker 7: but there's one great bar and everybody was hanging out
- 9:58Speaker 7: there and everyone was finding their way there.
- 10:00Speaker 6: A lot of people wonder what they would draw or
- 10:02Speaker 6: what the crowd composition would be like if the ballpark
- 10:06Speaker 6: was closer to Tampa proper or Ybor City and some
- 10:09Speaker 6: of those Westport.
- 10:10Speaker 2: The new one might be, right?
- 10:11Speaker 7: The new one is going to be over by Raymond
- 10:13Speaker 7: James from what it sounds like, which will be a
- 10:16Speaker 7: lot more accessible. It also looks like a gorgeous park,
- 10:18Speaker 7: but I thought the Trop was fun.
- 10:20Speaker 2: It was cool. It also was more fun since it
- 10:24Speaker 2: was basically a... Brewers home game is very rude to say.
- 10:28Speaker 2: Hard to have fun. But I've been at a lot
- 10:30Speaker 2: of Brewers home games with less Brewers fans than there
- 10:32Speaker 2: were last night.
- 10:33Speaker 4: I was going to say, hard to not have fun
- 10:34Speaker 4: in that situation. I mean, especially with that many traveling
- 10:37Speaker 4: fans and, of course, that kind of production and output.
- 10:39Speaker 2: We have breaking news from the Trop. Come on now.
- 10:42Speaker 2: I don't want to steal it from Hunter. But the
- 10:44Speaker 2: Brewers have changed their lineup. Uh-oh.
- 10:48Speaker 6: It's just that Sal Freelick and Garrett Mitchell switched spots
- 10:51Speaker 6: in the lineup.
- 10:51Speaker 2: Other than that, it's the same thing.
- 10:52Speaker 3: Oh, my goodness.
- 10:53Speaker 2: He's a slugger now.
- 10:54Speaker 4: He's so hot.
- 10:55Speaker 6: Churio, Bowers, Yelich, Contreras, Terang, Freelick in the sixth hole, Pratt, Mitchell, Hamilton.
- 11:03Speaker 2: Okay. Okay.
- 11:04Speaker 3: Wow.
- 11:04Speaker 2: I'm kind of surprised for that. I don't know.
- 11:06Speaker 3: That's okay.
- 11:07Speaker 2: Well, I don't know if they're going to be able
- 11:07Speaker 2: to win the World Series now. No, I didn't mean
- 11:09Speaker 2: it like that. I just, you know, I didn't mean
- 11:11Speaker 2: it like that. They swapped spots. There we go. Okay.
- 11:14Speaker 6: Mitchell's down in the order and Sal up because Sal's
- 11:17Speaker 6: the hot hand.
- 11:19Speaker 4: If he continues what he's been doing the last two days,
- 11:22Speaker 4: it's hard to question that his barrels has been hitting
- 11:24Speaker 4: balls hard and everything.
- 11:26Speaker 2: So we already got the flags out.
- 11:28Speaker 7: We already got the fans rolling through for stretch. The
- 11:30Speaker 7: game is three hours away and people are already in here.
- 11:34Speaker 7: And you got nice young girls. Science says I'm skipping
- 11:36Speaker 7: school for this in Milwaukee.
- 11:38Speaker 2: That's fine. There was a lot of school being skipped yesterday.
- 11:41Speaker 7: And one of the cooler things that happened in the
- 11:42Speaker 7: stadium was you, there was the moment where all the
- 11:46Speaker 7: raised fans started leaving and Plenty of Brewers fans started
- 11:49Speaker 7: to come from the upper levels and go down to
- 11:52Speaker 7: the lower level. But there was also that moment where
- 11:54Speaker 7: you could scan the crowd and see people drew onto
- 11:56Speaker 7: their phones looking like, all right, maybe I do buy
- 12:00Speaker 7: some tickets tomorrow. There was a nice family in front
- 12:02Speaker 7: of us, two boys. The mom was looking at every
- 12:05Speaker 7: hotel imaginable that they were staying in to extend the
- 12:09Speaker 7: trip because they were not missing going here tonight. And
- 12:12Speaker 7: there were a lot of extending trips. There were a
- 12:14Speaker 7: lot of folks that, I mean, you do just forget
- 12:16Speaker 7: how many people have enough of the cold, and decide
- 12:20Speaker 7: to go move down to Florida because there's a lot
- 12:22Speaker 7: of people I know that are now full-on Florida residents
- 12:26Speaker 7: that said, this is just too good to miss, having
- 12:28Speaker 7: it be in our backyard. I'll drive four hours from
- 12:31Speaker 7: Jacksonville or five hours or wherever I am in Fort Lauderdale,
- 12:35Speaker 7: however long it takes me to drive across the state.
- 12:37Speaker 7: I'll find my way there, and I think there's a
- 12:39Speaker 7: lot more folks doing that here today. Kevin Millar, how
- 12:43Speaker 7: do you inspire a 3-0 series comeback?
- 12:45Speaker 1: Kevin?
- 12:46Speaker 2: There's no Dave Roberts on this race team. Sorry about that.
- 12:49Speaker 6: Armin's the most nervous member of our three musketeers here.
- 12:53Speaker 6: And I'm the guy who covered that series in 04
- 12:56Speaker 6: when the Red Sox came back from three down. And
- 12:59Speaker 6: they lost game three, 19 to eight.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Good point.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Yes.
- 13:05Speaker 6: And so imagine like, okay, so the Brewers boat raced
- 13:08Speaker 6: double that basically. It was 19 to eight in game three.
- 13:12Speaker 6: So I wrote my game story just absolutely burying the
- 13:15Speaker 6: Red Sox.
- 13:17Speaker 2: Over. Good night.
- 13:19Speaker 6: And I had to wear it when they came back
- 13:21Speaker 6: and won. And so I was at that series, covered
- 13:24Speaker 6: that in its entirety. And it's still, now I realize
- 13:27Speaker 6: that that is such an outlier. That's the equivalent of
- 13:31Speaker 6: getting eight straight, you know, two out runs or seven straight,
- 13:34Speaker 6: two out hits or whatever.
- 13:35Speaker 7: And you also look at now that team, you realized
- 13:38Speaker 7: how bona fide and how legit they were at the time.
- 13:41Speaker 7: Now you look at, in hindsight, 20-some years later and
- 13:43Speaker 7: realize just how many great, great players were on that
- 13:46Speaker 7: Red Sox team. It wasn't like they were going up against, hey,
- 13:48Speaker 7: slouches from the 03 Yankees. But you start realizing, man,
- 13:53Speaker 7: that is a historic team on that side that ended
- 13:57Speaker 7: up pulling off something that's only been done one time.
- 13:59Speaker 7: And if there's any kind of pucker factor, I think
- 14:02Speaker 7: it happens more, Drew. You would be able to tell
- 14:05Speaker 7: from being in there. Did the rivalry have anything to
- 14:07Speaker 7: do with it? It feels like the emotion in that side,
- 14:11Speaker 7: that's one of the reasons why that one happened way
- 14:13Speaker 7: back when. I can't see any way these Rays are
- 14:16Speaker 7: getting up off the mat after that eight run.
- 14:18Speaker 6: So that was 22 years ago. And in the interim,
- 14:24Speaker 6: we talked about how hard it is just to win
- 14:25Speaker 6: game four when you're down 3-0.
- 14:27Speaker 2: Just to make it.
- 14:28Speaker 6: The Yankees in 2024 were the first team since the
- 14:31Speaker 6: 1970 Reds to win game four after losing the first
- 14:33Speaker 6: three games of a World Series.
- 14:35Speaker 2: Both of those teams lost in five. Right now, the
- 14:39Speaker 2: idea of a game six.
- 14:40Speaker 6: Is about as remote as it could possibly be because
- 14:42Speaker 6: if the Rays were to get one tonight, I still
- 14:44Speaker 6: like the Brewers' chances tomorrow.
- 14:45Speaker 7: Yeah, because I still think that they're going in and
- 14:48Speaker 7: winning tomorrow. And whatever it was, so that would have
- 14:51Speaker 7: been the 24 World Series, right, against the Dodgers in
- 14:54Speaker 7: which they had that. That was, if I'm not mistaken, too,
- 14:58Speaker 7: that was the game where they had a lead in
- 15:00Speaker 7: game five and didn't judge drop the ball in center
- 15:02Speaker 7: field and kind of started a run for the Dodgers
- 15:06Speaker 7: where they played at five in the fifth inning and
- 15:09Speaker 7: ultimately ran away from the Yankees because they were leading
- 15:11Speaker 7: in there.
- 15:12Speaker 2: It is tough. to run this kind of inside straight
- 15:16Speaker 2: that it is going to take for not sure to
- 15:19Speaker 2: beat an upset and pull off a historical comeback.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Yes.
- 15:23Speaker 2: I think to win two games against this team right now,
- 15:25Speaker 2: it's going to take somewhat of an inside straight. They're
- 15:28Speaker 2: the best team and the hottest team. And that's a
- 15:30Speaker 2: recipe for generally. taking it off the sheet like the
- 15:34Speaker 2: 19 Red Sox or the 18 Red Sox did. Everything
- 15:36Speaker 2: you guys are saying is true. Your logic's not flawed.
- 15:39Speaker 2: It's flawless. I agree.
- 15:40Speaker 4: I just, you know, you just want to see that
- 15:42Speaker 4: last one go through. That's the only thing, because you
- 15:45Speaker 4: don't want to become that outlier, I think. And that's
- 15:48Speaker 4: only for the Eeyores. Not Eeyores is the wrong word,
- 15:50Speaker 4: because Eeyore implies you never believe. I mean, I believe,
- 15:53Speaker 4: of course. But that's for the true nervous Nellies amongst us.
- 15:58Speaker 4: that are afraid of that cookies ending like me, that,
- 16:02Speaker 4: that fear, like the worst of the cookies theory. But listen,
- 16:06Speaker 4: I think you guys are absolutely right. And I'm not,
- 16:09Speaker 4: I'm trying to manifest good things. So let's embrace it.
- 16:12Speaker 4: Let's embrace it. Like you said, Billy, let's embrace those
- 16:14Speaker 4: good things.
- 16:15Speaker 2: Let's enjoy it. Charles Miller on YouTube. Let's go brewers. Absolutely.
- 16:19Speaker 2: Will said, we're not hungry. We're starving.
- 16:21Speaker 4: Will D I love that. Mike Witt saying I'm going
- 16:26Speaker 4: for big bills, MVP. If they win it tonight, A
- 16:29Speaker 4: lot of great comments coming in.
- 16:31Speaker 2: John K.
- 16:32Speaker 4: let's get May through the third with no damage. JoJo,
- 16:34Speaker 4: then DL, then our big three to close it. Well,
- 16:36Speaker 4: that sounds good to me on paper. Getting May through
- 16:39Speaker 4: three would be pretty good. I think that'd be a success.
- 16:41Speaker 4: If he got through three.
- 16:42Speaker 2: Once through the order.
- 16:43Speaker 1: Yep.
- 16:43Speaker 2: That's all you need.
- 16:44Speaker 4: You call that a success because his control's been a
- 16:47Speaker 4: little bit shaky, but he's been okay.
- 16:51Speaker 2: He's been fine. He had his outing in game two. Yeah,
- 16:55Speaker 2: I would say. He pitched already, so.
- 16:56Speaker 6: So, again, like we talked about, the breaks have gone
- 16:59Speaker 6: the Brewers' way. The Brewers are doing to, well, they're
- 17:02Speaker 6: doing to the Rays what they did to the Dodgers,
- 17:03Speaker 6: and they're doing it. They're stomping on the Rays the
- 17:07Speaker 6: way that the Dodgers did to them last year. And
- 17:11Speaker 6: everything Kevin Cash has done, like, well, I mean, sitting Aranda, Hicks,
- 17:14Speaker 6: and Palacios, like three of your best guys last night.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Bold strategy choice. Yeah.
- 17:20Speaker 6: And like every bunt they've had has led to an
- 17:23Speaker 6: out that didn't lead to runs and like everything they're doing.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Good point.
- 17:26Speaker 6: And they're, they're normally like pretty, really good defensively. And
- 17:31Speaker 6: like how many, you know, a lot of rockets going
- 17:32Speaker 6: off guys and the, pop-ups, the Yelich pop-ups that they
- 17:35Speaker 6: didn't catch in left field.
- 17:36Speaker 7: Walls is, if not the best, one of what? The
- 17:39Speaker 7: three best defensive shortstops in ball. For him to not
- 17:43Speaker 7: be able to make that play against Terang, it's scolded.
- 17:46Speaker 7: That is a tough play to make, but one that
- 17:49Speaker 7: he's generally made throughout the year.
- 17:50Speaker 2: One of the reasons why he's their guy.
- 17:53Speaker 7: Drew, they have been abnormally off, and I think a
- 17:59Speaker 7: large portion of it is the credit that's due to
- 18:01Speaker 7: the crew because of the kind of pressure that that
- 18:03Speaker 7: they apply to you. And, man, you have such a
- 18:06Speaker 7: group that is as connected as the Brewers are right now.
- 18:11Speaker 7: It's tough to slow that kind of roll. I mean,
- 18:14Speaker 7: the team of destiny, whatever it is, there were a
- 18:16Speaker 7: couple of Rays fans that were telling Brewers fans that
- 18:18Speaker 7: last night. You guys are the team of destiny, so
- 18:21Speaker 7: go and enjoy it. There's, I think, a little coke,
- 18:23Speaker 7: but just a lot of truth to it. It appears
- 18:26Speaker 7: that they're playing with a different level of it. And
- 18:29Speaker 7: if they are fully kicking dirt, in the face of
- 18:32Speaker 7: their opponent like the Dodgers did to them. Who hits
- 18:35Speaker 7: the three home runs tonight? Who has the Shohei game
- 18:39Speaker 7: here tonight? My guess would be Churio. And if he
- 18:43Speaker 7: does that, he does take World Series MVP probably off
- 18:45Speaker 7: the sheet.
- 18:46Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that would be a safe bet. Yeah,
- 18:48Speaker 4: there's no question if he did something like that.
- 18:49Speaker 2: I mean, he's hitting like 530 in this series. It's
- 18:51Speaker 2: pretty wild. Or 580. And Contreras is hitting 580.
- 18:54Speaker 7: I was going to say, I think he's 8 for
- 18:57Speaker 7: 14 with a double and three steals.
- 19:00Speaker 6: They both had two hits in games one and two.
- 19:02Speaker 6: And then Churio had four to three. So he leads
- 19:05Speaker 6: by a hit.
- 19:06Speaker 2: Basically. Yeah.
- 19:07Speaker 7: They just, they just flashed it up eight for 14
- 19:09Speaker 7: for cheerio, seven for 13 for Contreras, three runs driven
- 19:12Speaker 7: in for Contreras, but throwing out the base runners that
- 19:14Speaker 7: he has as well. And I know last night, you know, the,
- 19:17Speaker 7: the overslide of second base, isn't that he beats them
- 19:20Speaker 7: with the throw, but the swag that he has on
- 19:24Speaker 7: hitting seven of nine ABS challenges.
- 19:26Speaker 2: And the one that Smoltz is like, I just don't
- 19:28Speaker 2: even know why you're doing that. I don't even, I
- 19:31Speaker 2: don't even get why you're doing that one. Well, cause
- 19:33Speaker 2: he's right. And all of a sudden the count flips
- 19:35Speaker 2: around and asked him, There's a bunch of swag in
- 19:37Speaker 2: that moment. Even when you're that sure.
- 19:39Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 19:39Speaker 4: But you're up to own the third. I just don't
- 19:41Speaker 4: understand it. I don't know what that was really bizarre.
- 19:44Speaker 4: I don't know what's hard to get. I mean, everything
- 19:47Speaker 4: matters at this stage.
- 19:48Speaker 2: Yeah. You're up to nothing in the third. So a
- 19:50Speaker 2: lot of things can happen.
- 19:51Speaker 7: Joe Davis, uh, very accurately also questioned, uh, Smoltz last
- 19:55Speaker 7: night when he said, well, only plays at second base
- 19:57Speaker 7: with the, uh, Yelich when he goes, even with the
- 20:01Speaker 7: catcher Contreras running to first Yeah.
- 20:04Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:05Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. I don't know about that one. Maybe.
- 20:08Speaker 3: Maybe.
- 20:09Speaker 2: I think he gets contrarian.
- 20:10Speaker 6: Ray's legend Evan Longoria is going to throw out the
- 20:12Speaker 6: first pitch tonight, and Neo's performing the anthem. Yesterday was
- 20:16Speaker 6: Carly Pierce, and then they had Joe Madden go to
- 20:18Speaker 6: James shields for the first pitch last night.
- 20:21Speaker 2: Billy, were you in the house for that? Yeah, I was,
- 20:23Speaker 2: I started booing Joe Madden. I didn't know if that was,
- 20:25Speaker 2: I didn't know if that was appropriate. I didn't know
- 20:26Speaker 2: if that was too far on first pitches, but then
- 20:29Speaker 2: big game, James came out.
- 20:30Speaker 7: I gave him a nice little golf clap and he
- 20:32Speaker 7: was very excited. Poor Austin Meadows drew. They flashed this
- 20:36Speaker 7: guy up to try to get the crowd going, going
- 20:38Speaker 7: into the bottom of the fifth inning. Ooh, he's just,
- 20:41Speaker 7: he's like grimacing on the, on the screen.
- 20:43Speaker 3: Like maybe get loud. Let's go.
- 20:46Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 20:46Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:47Speaker 2: Why not? After what just happened? It can't hurt.
- 20:49Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Oh, wow. You got to try. That's rough. There were
- 20:52Speaker 2: no more crazy cap shuffles after the fifth inning. It
- 20:55Speaker 2: was crazy how that happened.
- 20:57Speaker 7: It was.
- 20:58Speaker 2: Crazy how that happened. Crazy how that happened. Do they
- 21:00Speaker 2: have a video board that can sustain it? I kept
- 21:03Speaker 2: seeing that strip board of the line score.
- 21:06Speaker 7: Yeah, and then that strip board also kept telling the
- 21:08Speaker 7: 50-50 raffle number. You want to talk about a 420 story?
- 21:12Speaker 7: What are you high?
- 21:16Speaker 2: $ 194, 000 last night.
- 21:17Speaker 1: Damn.
- 21:18Speaker 2: To the winner of the 50-50 raffle.
- 21:19Speaker 6: So obviously people weren't buying $ 35 beers.
- 21:22Speaker 2: They were pouring it into 50-50. They were just funneling
- 21:25Speaker 2: it into the 50-50 raffle. How much are the tickets?
- 21:28Speaker 4: It was up to $ 25, 000 last night at American Family Field.
- 21:31Speaker 2: That's pretty good. Yeah, it was amazing. I can't believe
- 21:34Speaker 2: that number.
- 21:34Speaker 6: That's a great 420 because it's brought to us by

- 22:30Speaker 5: brewers fans out here. Plenty of brewer.
- 22:32Speaker 2: All right.
- 22:32Speaker 3: Here, we're going to show you a brewer's fans here.
- 22:34Speaker 2: There we go.
- 22:35Speaker 3: In the back over my, one of my shoulders.
- 22:42Speaker 2: Oh no. They cut his, they cut, they cut his data.
- 22:45Speaker 7: They cut his dad, that raise owner, not wanting to
- 22:50Speaker 7: let anybody know about the takeover of the trap.
- 22:52Speaker 2: Unbelievable. Your data.
- 22:54Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 22:54Speaker 2: Hunter, you faded out. You got us now. He's going
- 22:59Speaker 2: to have to call. Look at that smile. Too many
- 23:01Speaker 2: Brewers fans.
- 23:02Speaker 7: Man, look at that beautiful smile he's got in there
- 23:05Speaker 7: on the video stream, though. That was a delight. Like,
- 23:08Speaker 7: no other.
- 23:09Speaker 2: If you had to freeze a frame on something, it
- 23:11Speaker 2: would be that.
- 23:12Speaker 6: Yeah, Hunter, no more wheeling around, because it seems like
- 23:14Speaker 6: you have good reception right where you're standing.
- 23:16Speaker 1: Okay.
- 23:17Speaker 6: All right.
- 23:18Speaker 3: I will not move an inch for the rest of
- 23:20Speaker 3: this interview.
- 23:21Speaker 4: Too many influencers down there using their GoPros and their
- 23:24Speaker 4: tripods and... for the, you know, the butt scratch podcast
- 23:28Speaker 4: or whatever they let everybody in these days, right?
- 23:30Speaker 2: Hunter, is that what it is?
- 23:32Speaker 5: Well, here I will, uh, there's a man named a
- 23:35Speaker 5: legend named Dennis Krause, who's just to my left right now,
- 23:38Speaker 5: who is, uh, who's, uh, yeah, here I'll, I'll risk it.
- 23:41Speaker 3: There he is. I would only do this if Hunter
- 23:45Speaker 3: was involved.
- 23:46Speaker 1: Correct.
- 23:47Speaker 3: He makes us all.
- 23:48Speaker 2: Do crazy things, Dennis. That's right. That is awesome. That
- 23:52Speaker 2: is awesome.
- 23:53Speaker 3: So anyway, but yeah, yeah, we got a lot.
- 23:55Speaker 2: Yep.
- 23:56Speaker 3: A lot of people doing different things that's.
- 23:58Speaker 6: Amazing hunter uh dustin may getting the ball tonight what
- 24:02Speaker 6: is the uh what's the outlook for him is he
- 24:05Speaker 6: one time through the order that brewers have arrested penn
- 24:07Speaker 6: thanks to what happened last night what is your outlook.
- 24:12Speaker 5: Yeah i i think that is that i think that's
- 24:14Speaker 5: about right probably one time through the order i asked
- 24:16Speaker 5: pat murphy about it and he didn't give anything away
- 24:19Speaker 5: necessarily but just said we like a guy who's got
- 24:21Speaker 5: experience in this spot obviously he's he's got world series
- 24:24Speaker 5: experience he's got playoff experience so it makes sense for
- 24:27Speaker 5: him to to be on the mound tonight last time
- 24:30Speaker 5: in la they used an opener went with shane drohan
- 24:32Speaker 5: and now they're going to go with him to start
- 24:34Speaker 5: the game so we'll see how that impacts things and
- 24:36Speaker 5: how he pitches but hopefully this can be you know
- 24:38Speaker 5: we saw really good dust in may for the first
- 24:40Speaker 5: couple of starts at burr's uniform and then since then
- 24:42Speaker 5: it's just been such a rocky road will be awesome.
- 24:45Speaker 5: If you can get, I think it's a win. If
- 24:46Speaker 5: you can get through the first time through the order,
- 24:48Speaker 5: no runs. And I think it sets up well for
- 24:50Speaker 5: your bullpen. Maybe then you bring in a Shane throw
- 24:51Speaker 5: and maybe, you know, then somehow you've got to bridge that.
- 24:54Speaker 5: Maybe a Jojo Romero, obviously as well, somehow bridge that
- 24:58Speaker 5: gap to get to your Aaron Ashby, your Abner Rebay,
- 25:01Speaker 5: your Trevor McGill with either, you know, tied or taking
- 25:04Speaker 5: the lead there.
- 25:05Speaker 3: And then, you know, you finish it with your guys.
- 25:07Speaker 7: There's a moment in time that you could think of
- 25:11Speaker 7: DL Hall handing the ball to back to Murph and
- 25:14Speaker 7: all of a sudden there's 14 outs to get or
- 25:16Speaker 7: 16 outs to get and he's getting Abner Uribe in
- 25:20Speaker 7: how long do you think both the Uribe Ashby McGill
- 25:24Speaker 7: what do you think the leash or innings limit that
- 25:28Speaker 7: you're trying to touch both guys all three guys are
- 25:30Speaker 7: rested but you do know that you potentially have to
- 25:33Speaker 7: pitch them tomorrow how how tough do you think or
- 25:37Speaker 7: how much do you think they'll lay it on the
- 25:39Speaker 7: line here tonight with those three guys in particular.
- 25:43Speaker 5: I was thinking about that because if the game is
- 25:46Speaker 5: in grasp, I think they're going to try to win
- 25:48Speaker 5: this thing and take this stuff. Because I don't think
- 25:51Speaker 5: they're going to worry about tomorrow. If they're up a
- 25:53Speaker 5: couple of runs, it's kind of like what happened in
- 25:55Speaker 5: Game 4, right? Murph saw it in Ashby's eye and said,
- 25:58Speaker 5: you know what? You're going to finish this game. And
- 26:00Speaker 5: you're going to go out there and finish this game
- 26:01Speaker 5: in L.A. I kind of see the same thing happening.
- 26:03Speaker 5: Not that they'll necessarily leave Ashby in at that time,
- 26:06Speaker 5: but kind of go for it there, right? And so
- 26:08Speaker 5: I would say get to the sixth inning and have
- 26:10Speaker 5: those three guys ready and you're in good shape, right?
- 26:12Speaker 5: You can get two out of Ashby. You can get
- 26:14Speaker 5: one out of McGill and one out of Uribe, however
- 26:16Speaker 5: you want to face it. Usually what he's done is
- 26:19Speaker 5: Uribe maybe in the sixth. Depends on when the top
- 26:21Speaker 5: of the order is coming up for the other team
- 26:23Speaker 5: and matchups and all of that. But so I would
- 26:26Speaker 5: think that's about where you want to be, and that's
- 26:27Speaker 5: really been the strategy throughout the postseason, right? Get to
- 26:31Speaker 5: that sixth inning when you have those three guys, and
- 26:33Speaker 5: it's worked nearly to perfection.
- 26:36Speaker 6: How about the radical change in the lineup today, flipping
- 26:38Speaker 6: Freelick and Mitchell? That's the only real change, but it's
- 26:42Speaker 6: the first change we've had in the World Series.
- 26:45Speaker 3: Right, exactly. Almost identical.
- 26:47Speaker 5: And we know Murphy doesn't put out identical lineups very often,
- 26:50Speaker 5: you know, consecutive days. So this has been a little different.
- 26:53Speaker 5: But hey, Sal's, I mean, Sal's hitting the ball well.
- 26:55Speaker 5: He should have had another hit that Chandler Simpson took
- 26:57Speaker 5: away last night. And then third time's a charm down
- 27:00Speaker 5: that line towards where Billy was sitting. And Chandler Simpson
- 27:03Speaker 5: couldn't get to that one. So that was, I think
- 27:06Speaker 5: it makes sense that Freelink moves up a little bit. Obviously,
- 27:09Speaker 5: Mitchell didn't have a bad night either. But Sal moves up,
- 27:12Speaker 5: and boy, he's such a big... Mitchell and Hamilton both
- 27:17Speaker 5: were at the podium before the game. You'll hear it
- 27:19Speaker 5: on the pregame show coming up tonight just after 6.
- 27:22Speaker 5: But both talking about how Sal is a glue guy.
- 27:24Speaker 5: That guy does so much for that clubhouse. And for
- 27:28Speaker 5: him to come back from that shoulder, and obviously he
- 27:30Speaker 5: dove last night and we all held our breath. But
- 27:33Speaker 5: for him to come back from that shoulder and come
- 27:35Speaker 5: back as quick and be as.
- 27:37Speaker 3: You know, he had a rough September offensively. It wasn't great, but.
- 27:40Speaker 5: In October, to come up big in some of these
- 27:42Speaker 5: big moments has been awesome, and his teammates love it.
- 27:45Speaker 2: Who's your MVP, Hunter?
- 27:48Speaker 5: We had that discussion on the drive to the park today.
- 27:51Speaker 5: Who would it be right now? Eileen William Contreras right now.
- 27:55Speaker 5: Just the series he's having offensively, the postseason he's had,
- 28:00Speaker 5: the ABS challenges, the guy's.
- 28:02Speaker 3: Just on a roll right now.
- 28:04Speaker 5: Uh, and, and obviously catching a couple of runners too.
- 28:07Speaker 5: I would say we're at three. I think he's got
- 28:09Speaker 5: now in the series. I would say he's the leader
- 28:11Speaker 5: right now, but you have a moment from another guy
- 28:14Speaker 5: and who knows.
- 28:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:16Speaker 4: I think, you know, the totality of what William does,
- 28:19Speaker 4: but if Jackson trio goes all Reggie Jackson tonight, you know,
- 28:22Speaker 4: anything could happen in that regard as well.
- 28:24Speaker 3: Right.
- 28:24Speaker 2: So, um, some things could change. That's for sure. Yeah.
- 28:28Speaker 6: Uh, Hunter, did you wear old clothes or are you prepared?
- 28:31Speaker 6: You gotta be ready for a possible, the mother of
- 28:34Speaker 6: all clinchers.
- 28:37Speaker 5: Right it's it's the idea you think about some scenarios
- 28:39Speaker 5: this would be the top uh... i a i was
- 28:42Speaker 5: ready as i'll ever be i was going to seem
- 28:43Speaker 5: strategy is as the previous ones if you go in
- 28:47Speaker 5: and and whatever happens happens because if they're if you're
- 28:49Speaker 5: going to do it uh... champagne celebration tonight that means
- 28:52Speaker 5: this is the first time the birds of a world
- 28:54Speaker 5: world series that At that point, clothes can be replaced
- 28:57Speaker 5: at that point.
- 28:59Speaker 7: At what point during this run has you been running
- 29:01Speaker 7: and gallivanting all across the West Coast and the country
- 29:05Speaker 7: covering this team's quest for their first ever world title?
- 29:09Speaker 2: Did you believe that they could win the world championship?
- 29:14Speaker 5: That's also a discussion we had on the way back
- 29:16Speaker 5: to the hotel last night.
- 29:17Speaker 3: It's a great question.
- 29:18Speaker 2: I wasn't eavesdropping. I'm telling you, I was not in
- 29:20Speaker 2: your Uber. I apologize.
- 29:22Speaker 3: I'm like, man.
- 29:23Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 29:23Speaker 5: Maybe the phone, the phone was connected. That's a, it's
- 29:27Speaker 5: a good question. Some of the discussion in the car,
- 29:30Speaker 5: was it when they forced Yamamoto out game two early
- 29:33Speaker 5: in game two with the NLCS?
- 29:35Speaker 3: That was an answer that was tossed around for me.
- 29:38Speaker 5: It was that it was the, the Bowers and Mitchell
- 29:41Speaker 5: back-to-back homers against Snell. That was against Snell in Game
- 29:45Speaker 5: 3 of the NLCS. Snell was just dominating the Milwaukee Brewers.
- 29:52Speaker 3: The offense was there. He was cruising.
- 29:55Speaker 5: And then it just flipped on a dime on that
- 29:57Speaker 5: long at-bat, and the Brewers go on to win that game.
- 30:00Speaker 5: And that was when, okay, now they're a 3-0. Obviously,
- 30:03Speaker 5: it's hard for any team to come back to the
- 30:04Speaker 5: 3-0 deficit. Now you make the World Series, and then
- 30:07Speaker 5: coming into the World Series, I'm like, they should win
- 30:08Speaker 5: this series. They're a better team than the Rays. They
- 30:10Speaker 5: simply are. The Rays are a really good team. They
- 30:12Speaker 5: won 98 games. They won the AL and all that.
- 30:15Speaker 5: Brewers are a better team. They're the best team in
- 30:17Speaker 5: baseball this year, and I just think it has shown
- 30:20Speaker 5: in the postseason going 10-1. So I would say that
- 30:23Speaker 5: when that game turned against Snell in L.A., not that
- 30:26Speaker 5: in the moment I was like, oh my gosh, they're
- 30:28Speaker 5: going to win the whole thing, but that's when you
- 30:30Speaker 5: start to believe that, okay, yeah, this team that we've
- 30:33Speaker 5: seen throughout the regular season has showed up in the postseason,
- 30:37Speaker 5: and they may have dusted off the cobwebs a little
- 30:39Speaker 5: bit in that Padres series, and since then have just
- 30:41Speaker 5: been cruising.
- 30:42Speaker 6: I was the early adopter because as soon as Churio
- 30:45Speaker 6: won game two, I said they're winning the World Series.
- 30:47Speaker 2: When they beat Mason Miller. I'm like, this train ain't stopping.
- 30:53Speaker 4: It took me a little bit to believe with the Dodgers.
- 30:56Speaker 2: Oh, don't even act like you. Don't even act like this.
- 30:58Speaker 2: I don't want to put the cart ahead of the horse.
- 31:02Speaker 2: They were 8-1 in the playoffs and they just foray
- 31:05Speaker 2: trained the number one team in the AL. You didn't
- 31:08Speaker 2: win the fourth one yet, but you're right.
- 31:11Speaker 4: I think we became, at least for me, believers when
- 31:15Speaker 4: you saw them beat the Dodgers.
- 31:16Speaker 2: I mean, And get that second win, get that third win. Oh,
- 31:20Speaker 2: this could happen. Fair enough. Hunter, anything else you've gathered today?
- 31:25Speaker 2: Anything else you need to tell us? Not necessarily.
- 31:30Speaker 3: I think this is a game that the Brewers.
- 31:34Speaker 5: You know, I'm just watching all these Lakers fans coming
- 31:37Speaker 5: into this section behind the dugout.
- 31:38Speaker 2: Does it feel like more than yesterday?
- 31:41Speaker 3: I was going to ask you, I would say 45% yesterday.
- 31:44Speaker 3: What do you say?
- 31:45Speaker 7: That was because I said about between 40 and 50.
- 31:48Speaker 2: So 45 would be right in between there. That was,
- 31:51Speaker 2: but we were, the Brewers fans were definitely louder, had
- 31:53Speaker 2: more to cheer about, but they were, they're definitely drunker.
- 31:56Speaker 7: Like that was, that was an undeniable part of it.
- 32:00Speaker 7: Definitely were partying longer than the Rays fans were. But
- 32:03Speaker 7: I'd say about 45%.
- 32:05Speaker 2: So seems like potentially more here now.
- 32:09Speaker 5: I mean, there is definitely a bigger contingent right now,
- 32:13Speaker 5: right around batting practice than there was yesterday.
- 32:15Speaker 3: It's not crazy big, but there's more.
- 32:18Speaker 5: And they're all gathered over there watching the guys stretch
- 32:21Speaker 5: and everything. And I think the players are acknowledging them
- 32:24Speaker 5: a little bit, which is awesome, too. I mean, look,
- 32:26Speaker 5: the Brewers came out here yesterday and for to stretch
- 32:29Speaker 5: at this exact time and Bauer said I came out
- 32:31Speaker 5: and I saw the Brewers fans and he literally said
- 32:33Speaker 5: it calmed his nerves a little bit like this this
- 32:35Speaker 5: is having an effect on this team and there's no
- 32:37Speaker 5: doubt about it it's awesome to think that you can
- 32:40Speaker 5: have that effect uh by making the trip or going
- 32:42Speaker 5: to Amphan Field for these games uh so that's awesome
- 32:45Speaker 5: so yeah I I think this could be over half
- 32:49Speaker 5: I mean think about it from a race perspective right
- 32:51Speaker 5: I mean it's it's Your team's down 3-0, so it
- 32:53Speaker 5: just depends on what your perspective is. Do you want
- 32:56Speaker 5: to just go to a World Series game, a World
- 32:57Speaker 5: Series game that your team could lose the series on?
- 33:00Speaker 5: Or do you just say, you know what, we're just
- 33:01Speaker 5: going to go to the World Series anyway?
- 33:03Speaker 2: It depends.
- 33:04Speaker 5: So this could be 50-50 or maybe even a little
- 33:07Speaker 5: better for us fans.
- 33:08Speaker 4: We'll see.
- 33:08Speaker 6: All right, Hunter, on the way out here, what's the
- 33:10Speaker 6: Augs box situation? Like Billy told me, you were basically
- 33:13Speaker 6: on top of the batter's eye in center field.
- 33:15Speaker 2: It looks sweet.
- 33:19Speaker 5: It was a unique perspective. I, I, that was one
- 33:22Speaker 5: where it's like a home run could definitely be hit
- 33:24Speaker 5: to be here.
- 33:25Speaker 3: And you don't usually feel that when you're in any
- 33:27Speaker 3: sort of press box situation, but yeah, it's, it's right
- 33:30Speaker 3: out there in center field.
- 33:31Speaker 2: Right.
- 33:32Speaker 5: Basically almost dead center is where we're sitting. And it's
- 33:35Speaker 5: a cool, yeah, definitely a cool perspective. This is a
- 33:38Speaker 5: park that you almost have to experience to get an
- 33:40Speaker 5: understanding for it. Like it's, it's, I took me about
- 33:43Speaker 5: 30 minutes on, on Sunday when we came here for
- 33:45Speaker 5: the workout to like, really take a grasp of what
- 33:48Speaker 5: this stadium is.
- 33:48Speaker 3: I'm like, what am I looking at?
- 33:50Speaker 5: It feels like a college basketball arena, but then it's
- 33:52Speaker 5: like bigger. And, but then like, it's also incredibly strange lighting.
- 33:57Speaker 5: And then the Brewers are shooting pop-ups way into the
- 33:59Speaker 5: sky to try to practice.
- 34:00Speaker 3: And so it's just, it's wild.
- 34:02Speaker 5: Obviously it gets really loud because it's a dome and
- 34:04Speaker 5: the Brewers fans were making it loud last night when
- 34:06Speaker 5: they had that eight run fifth inning.
- 34:08Speaker 3: So it is, it's an interesting atmosphere here, no doubt,
- 34:12Speaker 3: but it's, it's cool. It's unique. I mean, that's a
- 34:14Speaker 3: good word for it. It's unique in a way.
- 34:16Speaker 7: It's a great place for a celebration, and I got
- 34:18Speaker 7: a feeling you're going to have.
- 34:20Speaker 2: A number of them.
- 34:21Speaker 7: The last part and the last question for me is,
- 34:24Speaker 7: Are you able to see all of the My Dog
- 34:27Speaker 7: shirts that got to be littered through that Brewers clubhouse?
- 34:29Speaker 7: Because I think everybody's gotten one of them from Big
- 34:32Speaker 7: Papi now. And everybody's gotten cigars from him throughout this run.
- 34:37Speaker 7: I got to assume it's going to be a very,
- 34:40Speaker 7: very well smoked out clubhouse with maybe a number of
- 34:43Speaker 7: those shirts. Have you seen any of them rocking them?
- 34:44Speaker 7: Because I got to imagine basically every Brewers got one
- 34:47Speaker 7: at this point.
- 34:49Speaker 3: It feels like it.
- 34:50Speaker 5: I mean, you win 10 games in the postseason, and
- 34:53Speaker 5: six of them have been on Fox.
- 34:55Speaker 3: Well, all of them have been on Fox, but six
- 34:56Speaker 3: of them have been with this main crew. Or seven
- 35:00Speaker 3: of them, right? Four against the Dodgers.
- 35:01Speaker 5: Yeah, seven of the 10 have been with the main crew.
- 35:04Speaker 5: I got to think that there's a lot of those.
- 35:06Speaker 5: I haven't seen them rocking them. This team is very team-oriented,
- 35:10Speaker 5: so maybe they're like, you know what, we're just going
- 35:12Speaker 5: to focus on the team.
- 35:14Speaker 3: I may wear it during the offseason, but maybe not
- 35:16Speaker 3: right now.
- 35:18Speaker 5: Maybe that's why, but this team is full of dogs,
- 35:22Speaker 5: and there's no doubt about it.
- 35:25Speaker 1: I lied.
- 35:25Speaker 7: I got one last one, because I just saw a
- 35:26Speaker 7: video that Lily Zhao posted of Jimmy Nelson talking with
- 35:31Speaker 7: Brandon Woodruff.
- 35:33Speaker 2: Right around the crowd but so just what how many how.
- 35:37Speaker 7: Many former brewers i saw ricky weeks walking out of
- 35:40Speaker 7: the park last night prince fielder was there how many
- 35:42Speaker 7: former brewers are you seeing out there enjoying the moment
- 35:46Speaker 7: because i think jimmy's wearing the hat from the 2018
- 35:49Speaker 7: playoffs so i got to imagine it means something to
- 35:52Speaker 7: him to be able to see them do this.
- 35:55Speaker 5: I'm telling you, yeah, a lot of these brewers have
- 35:57Speaker 5: talked about that. And I think a lot of them
- 35:59Speaker 5: take pride in building the foundation for this. And they
- 36:02Speaker 5: really did. I mean, at the end of the day, right,
- 36:04Speaker 5: like a Ryan Braun or, you know, these guys who
- 36:07Speaker 5: built the foundation, got the team back to the playoffs,
- 36:10Speaker 5: won the division in 2011. Like, this is something that
- 36:13Speaker 5: they obviously wanted to do themselves. But unfortunately, we're not
- 36:17Speaker 5: able to. But still, they laid the foundation for the
- 36:19Speaker 5: brewers having this run of success and having this chance.
- 36:22Speaker 3: At a World Series title.
- 36:23Speaker 2: So, yeah.
- 36:23Speaker 5: Yeah, they're definitely proud. I haven't seen as many today.
- 36:25Speaker 5: I just got out here when I joined you guys,
- 36:28Speaker 5: so I haven't been able to peruse the warning track,
- 36:33Speaker 5: but I would think that more and more are starting
- 36:36Speaker 5: to show up.
- 36:37Speaker 3: I did see Rock.
- 36:37Speaker 5: Rock was walking around when I came out of the interview.
- 36:41Speaker 3: So Rock is here, and I'm sure there's a lot. Absolutely. Phenomenal.
- 36:45Speaker 2: Hunter, enjoy.
- 36:46Speaker 6: We will be chatting at you one way or another tomorrow,
- 36:50Speaker 6: and We will be listening to you just after 6
- 36:53Speaker 6: o'clock at the baseball pregame show.
- 36:57Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely. You'll hear from Pat Murphy.
- 36:59Speaker 5: You'll hear from Garrett Mitchell and David Hamilton who met
- 37:01Speaker 5: with us as well. And we'll dig into the possibility
- 37:04Speaker 5: of what could be tonight as well after 6 o'clock.
- 37:07Speaker 4: Thanks, guys.
- 37:07Speaker 2: Excellent.
- 37:08Speaker 6: Hunter Baumgart brought to us by Community Roofing. Visit communityroofing.com.
- 37:12Speaker 6: Time for us to exit the stage. We will close
- 37:15Speaker 6: up any loose ends that we have and continue to
- 37:18Speaker 6: get ready. For what could be the final game of
- 37:21Speaker 6: the Brewers' championship run. The 2026 championship season could end
- 37:24Speaker 6: with a championship.
- 37:27Speaker 2: Several hours away. Finally. You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
- 37:33Speaker 4: One more. One more.
- 37:39Speaker 2: Solo uno mas.
- 37:41Speaker 1: One more.
- 37:42Speaker 2: Only one more. Brewers need one more victory to reach
- 37:46Speaker 2: baseball heaven. Oh, my goodness.
- 37:48Speaker 6: Heights not reached in these parts since 1957. Forget the
- 37:52Speaker 6: 44 years. Forget that.
- 37:55Speaker 4: 1957.
- 37:55Speaker 3: Yes.
- 37:56Speaker 6: The only World Series championship in Milwaukee baseball history. Shout
- 38:00Speaker 6: out to the Braves and the Braves Historical Association. Those
- 38:03Speaker 6: guys are doing a great job.
- 38:05Speaker 2: Great team.
- 38:05Speaker 7: And they're going to get to celebrate everything tonight, right?
- 38:07Speaker 7: I mean, like, there's going to be a lot of
- 38:09Speaker 7: people taking some celebration laps and things.
- 38:12Speaker 2: Or is it going to be a... If they wouldn't
- 38:16Speaker 2: have gotten it, it would have been for everybody that
- 38:18Speaker 2: still has evolved a little bit of like a toast
- 38:20Speaker 2: Miami Dolphins style. It was still the only one. I
- 38:24Speaker 2: don't think they're going.
- 38:24Speaker 3: To do it that way.
- 38:26Speaker 2: There's no Mercury Morris in that group. No, no, no.
- 38:31Speaker 7: There's no Mercury Morris to be holding the.
- 38:34Speaker 4: Candles and we can't do that. You know, I always
- 38:36Speaker 4: wondered that. What if the Dolphins themselves were the team
- 38:39Speaker 4: to go undefeated? Would they be happier because it's their franchise?
- 38:43Speaker 2: No, I'm going to say no. No, I, yeah, I'm
- 38:45Speaker 2: with you, Drew. I don't believe so. They want all
- 38:47Speaker 2: the shine for themselves. Yeah. I guess so. Well, let's
- 38:51Speaker 2: not worry about it. Let's see. No, not everybody wants this.
- 38:54Speaker 2: Everybody wants it.
- 38:55Speaker 4: Former players, current, obviously fans, observers, former managers, anyone associated
- 39:01Speaker 4: with it. Milwaukee and former Milwaukee and everyone wants this.
- 39:06Speaker 4: It's you can just taste it. And it just, it's
- 39:09Speaker 4: almost painful to be so close, you know, It's.
- 39:12Speaker 2: Going to be wild.
- 39:13Speaker 6: Dustin May with the ball tonight. Griffin Jacks for the raise.
- 39:18Speaker 6: But Dustin May for the Brewers, followed by.
- 39:21Speaker 2: Does it matter? Everybody's been good out of the chute.
- 39:23Speaker 2: I was just going to say, I really don't think
- 39:25Speaker 2: it matters too much, Drew. I think it's going to
- 39:27Speaker 2: be fine whoever ends up being there. He will be
- 39:31Speaker 2: on the proverbial short leash. But again, probably, you know,
- 39:34Speaker 2: if you can get once through the order, if you
- 39:35Speaker 2: can get him for three innings, that sets the stage
- 39:38Speaker 2: for Hall. The law firm of Hall, Ashby, Uribe, McGill. Well,
- 39:43Speaker 2: and I wonder how much and how. And maybe a Romero.
- 39:45Speaker 7: I was going to say, I wonder how matchup dependent
- 39:47Speaker 7: they'll be. And if they want to go for a
- 39:49Speaker 7: big gun for the top of the order, though, after
- 39:52Speaker 7: May goes through it the first time, right? Like, do
- 39:55Speaker 7: you want to see, do you want to have a
- 39:57Speaker 7: Romero face Diaz and Caminero? Or are you going to
- 40:00Speaker 7: try to go unload with a Uribe, say, in the
- 40:03Speaker 7: fourth or fifth inning because the top of the order
- 40:05Speaker 7: is coming up? And then you'll fill the gap to
- 40:08Speaker 7: Ashby with somebody else. It'll be interesting to see. I
- 40:10Speaker 7: know they've got multiple plans. The one thing we'll get
- 40:13Speaker 7: to say, and we do guarantee is we'll hear Murph
- 40:18Speaker 7: say him and Jim Henderson disagreed on it the whole time.
- 40:20Speaker 7: I'm sure all we did is sat there and disagreed
- 40:23Speaker 7: the entire time, but ultimately it worked out. Apparently neither
- 40:26Speaker 7: of us appreciate or enjoy or can agree on what
- 40:29Speaker 7: we want to do, but we've worked it pretty well
- 40:32Speaker 7: so far. 81 or 84% of the time with these
- 40:37Speaker 7: teams sweeping game for the Milwaukee brewers are a favorite
- 40:40Speaker 7: at the Pottawatomie sports book here tonight. They were a
- 40:42Speaker 7: heavy favorite last night, like minus one 40.
- 40:45Speaker 1: Yes.
- 40:45Speaker 2: From what I saw yesterday as well.
- 40:48Speaker 4: That that's a crazy stat for me that that many
- 40:51Speaker 4: teams don't even get to a game five.
- 40:52Speaker 2: So it makes you feel a little bit better. I
- 40:54Speaker 2: like that. Let's make tonight the night.
- 40:57Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 40:57Speaker 2: All right. Let's do it.
- 40:58Speaker 6: I mean, that is, that's the objective. And if you're,
- 41:02Speaker 6: you know, put yourself in the ratios, it's a, an
- 41:05Speaker 6: unclimbable mountain.
- 41:07Speaker 2: You like to think that their will was just destroyed.
- 41:09Speaker 2: That's what I'm hoping. That's what I'm thinking. I'm hoping
- 41:11Speaker 2: they're thinking about vacation. The first sign of adversity tonight,
- 41:14Speaker 2: they got to be thinking, well, it was a good season.
- 41:16Speaker 7: I got to imagine some. I can't think it's going
- 41:18Speaker 7: to be a longstanding wait. I can't think that there's
- 41:21Speaker 7: going to be a lot of, come on, we still
- 41:24Speaker 7: got this. We can still win this if you're down
- 41:26Speaker 7: 4-2 at the 7th.
- 41:27Speaker 2: No Armands in the dugout.
- 41:29Speaker 6: No matter what happens tonight, we'll be talking about it
- 41:31Speaker 6: tomorrow at 2 o'clock. And then, before you know it,
- 41:35Speaker 6: there's this little Packers game on Thursday.
- 41:37Speaker 2: Kind of a big one. Big football weekend. We won't
- 41:40Speaker 2: have a show on Thursday, per se. We might do
- 41:42Speaker 2: an hour, maybe, if that. We'll see.
- 41:44Speaker 6: We'll see how things lay out. But right now, everybody,
- 41:47Speaker 6: enjoy Game 4. Enjoy the history. We'll talk to you tomorrow.
- 41:49Speaker 3: Peace!
