  Speaker 1: Live for your early risers, insomniacs and just sociopaths on Facebook,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: X and YouTube. My name is Drew Wilson. I am
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: joined by my pals Bill.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Schmid and armand Sarian behind the glass over there on
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: a buy or se Tuesday?
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: Are you buying that?
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Last night, a sleeper night in the mid to late
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: may gave us some incredible, incredible sports moments, beginning of course,
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: with the Brewers stomping the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Just beating the breaks off of the Cubs makes it
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: the best way in the best table to go and
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: sit down and feast at And especially when Yellie's going
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: deep for a second time in the two games back,
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: it sets a heck of a tone when that dude's
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: in the middle of the lineup. Drew, as I stayed
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: up far too late last night watching Victor wembin Yama
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: just capture the NBA, just completely take away the soul
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: of the reigning defending NBA champ. Maybe similar to one
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: of his idols, Hakim Elaijauan seeing David or Robinson after
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: he won the ninety five MVP in seid.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: Excuse me, that's mine. Excuse me? Amazing.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: That's mine forty one. I believe he dropped in that game.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: And last night Wemby was sensational in a double overtime game.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: That Drew just made me laying in bed trying to
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: figure out how I was going to be able to
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: function right around three o'clock today on the lack of sleep.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Kind of sad for those people that don't like sports.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: There's days where I sit back and I'm like, man,
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: if only I would have stayed down the theater path,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: if only I would have been really into reading, because
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: you know, listen, some people say summer is for reading.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: The summer used to be for Sports Center, and that
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: last night was a night where I cry for those
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: folks that don't like sports, because there's nothing better than
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: what we saw last night.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: That was a great night. Billy. What a great reference
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: by you.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: I'm so impressed by you pulling back the ninety five
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: MVP race or yeah it was David Robinson and won it,
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: but it came in the playoffs.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Great great work there.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Even the men in Game one of the Western Finals,
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: if I'm not mistaken, just.
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: Made me feel so seen. Yeah, And you know the
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: thing about that is you're you're right.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: In the MVP.
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: The NBP award has had a little controversy, right because
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: Shams League did and a lot of people wanted when
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Me to win the award. There was a lot of
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: prominent media figures that were pushing it. So he didn't.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: Obviously SGA got it. But what a monster game for
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: him last night, And you're right, a great, great night
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: of sports, of course, capped off by our favorite result,
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: the Brewers dump trucking the Cubs in Wrigley and breaking
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: their winning streak.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they hadn't lost streak, Yeah, an.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Say it been a full month. They said a tax day.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: I think it was since they had last the last
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: one lost the last time at Wrigley, and that was
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: a resounding decision yesterday.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: Now, I don't know about you guys, because the way
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: the wind was blowing and they always talk about the
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: win at Wrigley.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: We love when people love talking about that, but it was.
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: Clearly blown out early, so I didn't feel very comfortable
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: until Bowers hit that last but even after it was
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: still eight three.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: But so great job.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: By the Brewers kind of, you know, obviously getting the
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: runs but also maintaining their poison that one third of
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: the Cubs had to get through it and to go
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: get the win.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: So what a great way to open the series and
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: a really good.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Uh, pretty good effort to wrap it up with two
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: rookie pitchers shoving and give it up three runs against
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: a legit offense. That Cubs have what you call one
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: of those long offenses. Yes, they just come at you.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: And the Craig Council is instilling, you know, he's instilling
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: a little of that Brewer's uh magic waters that uh,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: the healing springs of Milwaukee where they can get guys
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, you know, guys who have
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: been good players, but now they're giving like, really good
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: at bats.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: I think you would quite a bit in his career.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're giving you good at bats and playing
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: good defense. Now, imagine if the Brewers were without like
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: you know, Woodrof and Miss And that's.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Kind of where the Cubs are right now.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: They're gonna, they're gonna retool, They're gonna add a picture there.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: They're a pictures. Two pitchers short, probably if not three,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: because they got a top reliever out. Yeah, so they're
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: working through some things. This is gonna be a good matchup.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: The Brewers aren't going away. This is gonna be a
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: battle all summer into September and October, I think. And
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: it's just fun to watch. But the Brewers got off
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: to a great start last night. To be up by,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: to have a snowman up on the board, and to
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: be up like that, you know, comfortably. It's all relative
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: because regularly with the wind blowing out, But to be
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: up like that and to make their fans chan't Green
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: Bay sucks. Yes, in the middle inning, knowing that they're
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: getting stomped. It was just chef's kiss.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: It doesn't get any better than that.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: They had to go to that car all the way there.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: And I'm not gonna I'm.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Not gonna sit here and proclaim that the bear still suck.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Chant has not rung out over the years at Miller
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Park then in American favorite places. Yeah, yeah, it has.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: It does, but not with the prevalence and not with
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: kind of the hair trigger that they have down in Chicago.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: No question, Green Bay sucks. Like they were chanting Green
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Bay sucks at the White Sox cub series over the weekend,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: because it's the one thing they can agree on as
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: a civilization.
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: I think they're a point, they're getting to a point
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: where it's kind of like a fun thing for them,
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: like a battle.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Crouch is fine.
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: Sports would be fun, and that's part of it, but
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: you're right, there's no question.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: There's also a bit sad to it.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: I think, Well, it was cute when when the Lions
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: fans did it with Jared Goff because it was the
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: only thing that ron that was somewhat chantable that they had,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: and then they realized, well, we're chanting for like the
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: ninth best quarterback in football.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: That's a tough thing to do.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: And when you do it when you're getting beat down
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: at home. I mean, it was like one of those
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: half hearted I'll be honest with you. I think they
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: thought it was gonna hit different, but it would have
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: hit different they were up eight and nothing. But it
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: doesn't doesn't really have the same effect as like like
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: a rallying cry or like something you know, you get
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: excited about when you're getting you know, when you're getting
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: walloped at home like they were. So yeah, I don't know.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: I always hear that while you guys do it too,
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: And yes, of course the song was made. The bear
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: still suck, But I guess for me, I just don't
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: remember hearing it as much as that we have now
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: with Chicago fans. But hey, it's a funny thing now.
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: And boy, isn't that chef's kiss? Like you said, up
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: eight nothing, they're doing it, And now I'm like, oh,
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: that's great. What's the scoreboard say? We're up a touchdown
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: with a two pointer? So it felt pretty good last
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: night to get that dub, and now I'm missing the
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: pump today.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: So yeah.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Quote from Craig Council, the Brewers are the team that's
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: won the division the last three years. That's what we
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: want to do. Last year they beat us and they
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: had a fabulous season. We've got to improve to get
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: there well.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: And that's the tough part, is Drew, there's a different
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: there's a recalibration that you have to do of The
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Brewers have been the big dog in this rivalry since
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: twenty eighteen, and really since Game one sixty three. It
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: kind of flipped, right. I mean, I think that day
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: was a massive turning point for not only the organization's
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: mental makeup and belief of being able to beat that team, but.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: Also a little bit of the fan base.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Listen, I like it when you have a rivalry that
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: invokes that kind of passion where you actually want, you
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: fear playing the team because of not you know, Nico
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Horner leading off and Michael Bush potentially leading off in
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: certain games.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: And dang, all of a sudden they added Bregman there
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: at third base. No, it's because you.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Don't you can't fathom how you're going to feel if
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: they would end your season. I like when that kind
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: of paranoia enters sports, and I think truly on both sides,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: it's been there, although should be more, probably on that
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: side because for the better part of the last decade,
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: the Brewers have kind of owned it and to the
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: point where they had to come in here and try
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: to take the manager to try to see if they
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: could steal some of the match.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a great point, and it is kind of crazy,
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: how you know that one that one series did kind
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: of turn the tide on things. And it's been a
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: nice you know, it's been a nice back and forth.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: It's been exciting for all of us for the last
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: eight years, and it's going to continue to be as
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: we get through this summer. You know, we're just shipping
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: up for another battle. But you're right, Billy Council, going
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: there just add the intrigue. It's all the things that
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: make for a great Warts rivalry, and it is one
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: of those things when you take a step back and
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: you say, boyd has been fun. Especially when we get
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: the better of them in those playoff series.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: It makes so much better.
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: So it's one of those Probably some enterprising you know,
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: young kid in twenty five years is going to make
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: up a documentary about the decade of Rivals or something.
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: He's going to type it into Ai Drew and Ai yeah, yeah,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: might be voiced by like Jennifer Gardner at that point.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: A phenomenal one.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: You gotta love the hashtag baseball aspect of last night. First,
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: couldn't buy a hit with runners in scoring position in
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: the Twin Cities, and then lo and behold Bowers and
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Yellich six rbi between them, And again I go back
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: to you're sending rookies out there, two rookies to throttle
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: a really good offense and give you another day of
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: freshness in the back end of that bullpen. So so the
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: top leverage guys are arrested and ready behind miz who
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: may or may not need a top leverage guy tonight.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: So Birds are setting up pretty good in this series
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: to win it, and hey, the best way to get
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: after is to win the first one. And they put
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: a resounding stamp there.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: One hundred percent.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Dude, I honestly drew when you mentioned that, I was thinking,
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: like the drone performance might be the biggest one of
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: all of them. You come in with a massive lead,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: what should you do?
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: Let him hit it?
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: And yeah, yeah, like no walks.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: In the four and a third innings to clean that
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: up and to save the bullpen for these next two
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: days in a time where it's not like you're going,
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: you know, nineteen games in eighteen days, but these are
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: grinders and you're playing some big, big teams here.
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: And I liked.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: I liked generally what I saw from Sprote, especially when
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: he didn't get that last out in the fifth and
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: he was a little bit chapped. I'm like, that's pretty sweet.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: I like, I kind of dig it.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's a real bulldog.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: We need the ball son And he was like, yeah,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: it's like I kind of like to see that. It
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: was it seem I want him to be pissed that
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: he pissed at himself, but he pissed that he couldn't
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: get through five.
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: And the first four innings that we saw from was
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: really good. Obviously he had the hiccup in the fifth.
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: But I think he's you know, he's still get better
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: and starting to believe in it more. And I love
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: the attitude that he had going off. If now listen,
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: you're right, I mean, it's your own you make your
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: own bed. He could have gotten through that. I think
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: he's half mad at himself and twenty five percent or no,
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: seventy five percent mad at himself, and twenty five percent
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: kind of was chapped at Murphy.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: Let me get through this.
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: But great job by Drohan coming in taking care of business,
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: putting it down, and you just saw a sprote down
• 10:22
  Speaker 4: there and the dog out kind of walk because he
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: knew he wasn't to get the win.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: Probably you knew he thought he lost his chance at it,
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: and that, yeah, well you can't.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, when you're not, when you don't go five,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: no exactly.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: That's gotta be a game.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Though. When Matt Arnold just sits back and drew what
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: maybe three fingers there at a game to celebrate like that,
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: that's a night where you got.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: He's got to go back to a watering hole on
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: the way back. He's probably at the lodge with the
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: rest of the baseball people. Yeah or yeah, you're right.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: I'm sure he's got a nice suite over there at
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: the West and None Michigan Avenue.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: That's gotta just be such a good moment to think
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: of the move that you make in the offseason, the
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: questions you had, and then they just go out and
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: do that.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: That having two rookie pitchers combined to give you nine innings,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: right and again, Rake Bowers, you know, where was the
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: clamor to.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: Get that guy and have man, he's been incredible. Huh,
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: this is great, yell. It is waking up.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Bowers is raking as always and they're knocking balls off
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: the scoreboard. Now, it's probably gonna get cooler the next
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: two days and the ballpark will change, and you know,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: we can put away what happened last night because at Wrigley,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can see games change from inning to
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: inning much less day to day. So what we saw
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: last night, Now, if you got mis pitching and it's
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: ten to fifteen degrees cold or less humid, and the
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: winds blowing in a tick. That's not the worst situation either.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: I take my chances with miss when in those conditions,
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: if you got to have small market rallies and you
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: got you gotta pinball the baseball around the yard to win,
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: I like the Brewers in any game that's going to
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: be played that way, especially when thirty two is gonna
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: be on the bump.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: The thing is, and.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Hunter talked about this yesterday, but this the way they're
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: developing the Brewers to unleash these you know, the number
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: two guy out of the shoot and if whether it's
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: you know, Kad Patrick, Drone or Ashby and unleash these
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: multi inning beasts with really good stuff who are arguably
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: in a tick below or on par with your starter,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: that that's a pretty good weapon to deploy. Having those
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: guys be able to do that, and to have them
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: finished games with just two pitchers that time.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: How often do you see that?
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: Almost never nowadays.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say, and now you've seen it twice
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: in a week, Drew like that, that's the that's the
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: weird one. When you see Zurpa go down. We've still
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: waiting to see Kanigg. Maybe rob Zie is back sooner.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Rather than later.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: He's gotta doesn't have to clear and come back.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Right like, so you got you got three one inning
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: For the most part, guys Hi Kanank gave multiple innings
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: a couple of times when he pitched every single day.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Those are those are leverage guys that we're gonna be high,
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: high usage, high leverage dudes. And it almost you start
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: to wonder if they're like, well, we're not gonna be
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: able to replicate that. We're not gonna find three guys
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: that we trust to put into those spots. But if
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: we cut down with some of the youth that we
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: have out here and SPROT and drowing Chad Patrick's another one,
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: and you see it throughout At some point Coleman Crow,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: is it better to make sure your stuff is perfect
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: and built to start and you can keep yourself stretched
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: out in case you need to start or learn how
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: to get big league hitters out because you you would
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: know it better than Irew. There's just such a difference
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: between how your stuff plays at Triple A and how
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: it plays in the big leagues. They're talking about that
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: with Gasser on Sunday where Sprot has it been perfect throughout?
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Absolutely not? But as you've seen him now for six
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: seven weeks. He's really learning how his stuff is gonna
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: get big league hitters out. And you, however you stack him,
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: you gotta get mentioned Craig Counsel. He always said, you
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: got to get twenty seven ounce and it doesn't matter
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: who and how many you end up getting. Let's just
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: count to twenty seven. And they got enough guys that
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: can slice it down. We might see this more because
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Ashby was the first guy they started firing this thing
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: in with. Maybe this this is how they're training arms
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: to be able to throw eighty four games a year
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: like Ashby.
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe so maybe that's the that's the next inefficiency
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: in the market. The Brewers have taken advantage of as
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: an organization, finding guys that a goal, multiple innings, that teams.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: There's a little Dave Ramsey and this is what you're saying.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: I kind of like it, I really do.
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: And the other thing about it is, you know, if
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: you can get multiple guys that do, it will become
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: a trend. Hey, maybe we're going back to the seventies
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: tru Is guys used to do ace relievers. We're talking
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: about ralelly fingers in Indye one go like three innings
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: and two and two thirds three inning sometimes, But you're right, Billy,
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: and it was kind of the councils that started. It
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: was like outs or outs, and it really doesn't matter
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: how you get them, where you get them, who gets them.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: We just got to get through them and get get
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: these and get.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: But it's a lot more fun when you're able to
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: do that style guys, when you don't have Luis Chassine.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: Jolie Chassine is your number one starting Yeah, right, like
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: that was that was almost more out of necessity. Now
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: it's out of a little embarrassment of riches and how
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: are we going to get all these guys innings.
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: That's also easier to have all these plans when all
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: your guys shove an ex the Bruce pitchers have done,
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: like whoever whoever goes in there for the Brewers is
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: getting out, So every strategy works.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: Basically, I'll take three runs all out in ten punch
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: outs just about any night. Take my chances mm hm.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: Because we always say you got to score four to
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: win to expect to win a major league game. He
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: kind of got to score four runs the rest of it.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: If if you're winning with less than four. It's because
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: you're pitching well, playing good defense, and you're it's kind
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: of gravy.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm on, I'm gonna take that to the take
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: that to the window, and feel confident every time. But
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: this Ben Brown cat is a tough customer. And he
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: I watched him no hit the Brewers like six or
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: six innings or something like that at am FAM a
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: couple of years ago.
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: So he's tough.
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: He's I did not I didn't realize until I read
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: it this morning. I think it was Adam mccalvey who
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: said that this is the latest the Bruis and Cubs
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: have played their first game against each other in the
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: championship season since two thousand and four. Wow, So Brewers
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: Cubs usually have have you know a little bit early,
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: but and it's coming off of October when you had
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: like the most memorable, you know, matchup between these two
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: teams was the NLD last year and the Brewers prevailed
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: in that.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: As my YouTube algorithm just you know, loads me up
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: with those three games, the highlights of them in the
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: game recaps of game one, two, and five. I don't
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: know that I get a whole lot of Drew Sports fomo.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Every time I hear and see the sights and sounds
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: of Game five at the NLDS, I get a little
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: bit of sports fomo, thinking of all the forty some
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: thousand folks in there, let's just do it again. Let's
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: meet them in the playoffs again and have some more fun. Well,
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: that would be fantastic, is everybody. Would everybody be a
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: little bit less nervous about it this year after last year?
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Or would it be even worse?
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: The thing is like, Okay, the Bears and Packers played
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: in the playoffs and that didn't go well, But I
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: still say, bring the smoke. It's worth it, man, Even
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: if you even if we got aware that one good
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: you know, it was kind of payback and again, oh man, Well,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about it as we move forward. Today
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: it's Buyer Sell Tuesday. We're gonna have Hunter's recap coming
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: up for you. Hunter's Recap. This game was so sweet.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: We don't have to play it a couple of times.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say that popular demand, shallots of tears,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: Hunter Pound Guard by popular demand might have to make
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: a couple of appearances on today's show, but.
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: We're gonna have We'll talk a little bit about the
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: Packers too, And because Billy and I are doing a
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: little Packers event and we gotta we might have to
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: prime the pump and talk a little bit about what
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: we're gonna tell people at this lunch, because not everybody
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: can go and see this lunch and that we're gonna
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: be at with Wayne Laravie and Wes Hogkwitz, but we will.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: But we'll have to touch on some of the things there,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: including you know, I say, bring the smoke Packers Bears.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: If the Packers. You told me today that the Packers
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: and Bears are gonna meet in a playoff game again,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: whether at Lambeau or Soldier Field, sign me up.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: I'll take take it.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: I'll take three games a year between those two teams
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: every year for the next decade. Will there be some
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: painful years and the ones that you gotta wear, sure,
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: but it will be a phenomenal, phenomenal.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Theater, absolutely phenomenal. All right, we're off and running, shooting
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: shirts are off. We had Montreal prevailed. Billy was happy
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: about that.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: Had a lot.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, overtime in games se hockey doesn't get much
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: better than that. Overtime in Game one Oklahoma City, San
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: Antonio double overtime. Pretty sweet as well. Our buffet is
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: bountiful today, so let's feast. You're in the huddle, Fox Sports,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: Joy the friendly confines of American family Field. Go and
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: invade that ballpark, especially after they took most of the
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: troughs out.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: It's not as bad as he's on his point. Yeah,
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: upgraded a little.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: Bit for your for your big guy to hit that
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: home run, get things started to hit the scoreboard. Second
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: homer in a day. Everybody's kind of okay, well we're good.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Now that's settled everybody.
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: I thought you even like nothing like your starry giving
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: the first punch on the road like.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: That, no doubt time an Yeah, and I don't know
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: for sure that he's uh, you know, numbers would back
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: it up as much of a Cubs killer as like
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: a Ryan Brawn was, and those those matchups for the
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: longest time, Yell, he's had his his fair share of
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: big time games against the Cubs. Even though you know
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: the ops might not be over eight hundred or so.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: When when you've smacked over twenty bombs against that team. Yeah,
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: people remember that.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: We had a very rare technological glitch last night, and
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: I'm not referring to for some reason, X was bogged
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: down last night for a.
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: Ch whole time. Yeah, I saw a little bit of that.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: It was a little bit of an issue. Takes of course,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: you did, because the army likes the smoke from Chicago fans.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: But the ABS system had a little hiccup where the
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: Contreras challenged the pitch and he was right, and then
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: it glitched on the scoreboard like you could see it
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: at home, but on the scoreboard it was like stuck.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: And then okay, well it's a ball and the call stands.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: It went in doubt with the call stands, but the
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Brewers kept their challenge even though.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: His challenge was right, but it was wrong, but it
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: was right. Yeah, hell, I couldn't figure it out. I
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: thought the best part of the whole thing was the
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: homeplate umpire and how annoyed it made him. Yes, right,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: like when he stops the game and says, hey, excuse me,
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: whoever's on the scoreboard, figure it out? All right, there's
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: two challenges on both sides. All right, I'm sick and
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: tired of looking at this, and the both teams having too.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: I guess we can't fix it. Milwaukee does have to. Uh,
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: it was Uh, that was a strange one. I guess
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: at some point you knew technology was gonna have a moment.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: I wonder if they just had to, you know, unplug
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: it and plug it back in, or if there's an
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: ABS tech support that you call and they.
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: Tell you to do that. Yeah, the whole thing was bizarre.
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: I mean, and at first I got you know, one
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: Hunter tweeted last night, can trash challenge a pitch called
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: the ball on TV FED but still the call should
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: be overturned to his strike hopefully unpire turners microphone once
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: that was still a ball and Bruce loss of challenge
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: simply put that can't happen. So everyone was kind of
• 20:28
  Speaker 4: confused in the moment what was going on? Yeah, I
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: really it was barely it was barely in the zone,
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: but it wasn't. So it was one of those things
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: maybe I thought was the issue, but it was. It
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: was confusing for everybody. This was the sound on the
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: Marquee broadcast of the confused Cubs broadcasters.
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: Three Taylor made calling the pills the ball to Ketch
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: the challenge, Well, you could trust is aggressive. It's SABS
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: powered by t mobile. That's a strike. I mean just barely,
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: but it was. I feel like you got lucky with
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: that challenge. It's not really a great time to challenge,
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: Okay god oh man, Yeah, contralist to contrarian golf stands
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: a picture the ball. Milwaukee will retain their challenge.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: Wait what yeh?
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: I don't know one of those.
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: I'd say it's just confusing situation.
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: Last night, it was the best thing is the collective?
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: Wait what what to speak there?
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: It's been a pretty flawless system so far in terms
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: of the process, in terms of the way it's a strategized,
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: maneuvered handled. The ABS system has been pretty good so far.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm just weird. Yeah, and so it was
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: a weird, rare hiccup last night. But I can laugh
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: about it now because it didn't affect the game.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: Can you imagine if the Brewers would have lost by
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: one and you could have pointed to that specific pitch
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: as a game shifter. Oh, it would not have been
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: giggles this morning. In all reality, though you knew that
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: that was gonna happen at some point. Maybe I am
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: surprised that it didn't happen earlier In the in the
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: process for it.
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: It's been so good.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: I guess the craziest thing hearing that is I've wondered
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: if different broadcasters or teams were gonna pick up traits
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: and triggers of different guys, right, I mean, you they
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: see out everything nowadays. Wouldn't you think that they would
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: know and have a little bit of a scouting report
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: like that of a Contrarasy is gonna be He's gonna
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: be a little aggressive on these challenges.
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: That's a fascinating one.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: I didn't know, and I wonder if teams are actually
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: tracking that because the way that Jason Stark had a
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: really good article at The Athletic earlier this weekend about
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: how much walks are up and how different the strike
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: zone seems to be in and around to all of
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: baseball this year because hitters are being so much more
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: patient knowing that abs either. You know, some would say
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: is gonna bail them out, But in some circles it
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: just has shrunken the strike zone because you can't freestyle it.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: As Yeah, I think it's regular in that sense. I
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: mean there used to be where Okay, the UMP's got
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: a big strike zone, he's calling it outside is calling
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: it low, so now you feel the pressure to swing
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: obviously protect it and all that stuff. But now, yeah,
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: batter knows he has that sort of that sort of
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: checking balance on the ump, and the ump isn't gonna
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: be able to do that. So then therefore, right, the
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: result is the umps strengths to strike zone. That is
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: a pretty interesting thing, and it'll be interesting to see
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: how it to effects games, affects things, because you.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: Would assume that there would be some adjustment from teams, right,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: and some adjustment from pitchers understanding that guys are sitting
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: waiting on the corners. Now it makes sound easier said
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: than done. Just throw more strikes. But yeah, right, like
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: it just sounds a lot easier to throw more strikes.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: But you wonder if Drew there will be more of
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: an attacking mindset, knowing like, hey, man, nibbling on the
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: corners just not gonna get that kind of luck as
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: much anymore, because teams and players are being so much
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: more patient, right eight seven seven.
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Seven, If you'd like to wig, we're gonna be doing
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: some buying and selling later in the program. Plenty to
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: chew on with this. Brewers Cubs, Spurs, Oklahoma City, Montreal
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: and Buffalo. That's about as good a Game seven as
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: you can get.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: Going to ot, Yeah, I mean team winning to get
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: both get both road teams winning both games, going to ot,
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: the the basketball game, going to double overtime.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: It was.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: That's as good of Monday sports as it can get.
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: The Habs fans loading up the the arena for the
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: road game, Drew. That's a great scene. However, I did
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: kind of think that there was gonna be some fake hustle.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: There was none. I was anticipating when somebody turned the in,
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: you know, zoomed and panned the entire camera around the
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: full audience, that one side was maybe gonna be tarped off.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: They loaded that son of a gun up last night
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: to watch that game on the jump.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: That was an electrifying scene. Yeah, and there was a
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: good amount in Buffalo as well that here's where they're Obviously.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: I was kind of.
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: Surprised to see that, because you know, this is Buffalo, right,
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: the city of heartbreak, and they're trying to you know,
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: fight back and finally get a title and it's Game
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: seven and stuff like that, and they just couldn't get
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: it done.
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: But it was a great game.
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: It was like a three part epic battle, right, I mean,
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: Montreal started off so well up to early. The Savers
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: really clawed back at so many chances they tied it.
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: They really kept the pressure on most of the third period,
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: and it was Montreal and an overtime with the winning goal.
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: You know, just a more heartbreak for Buffalo fans. They're
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: one and seven now in NHL Game seven's and we
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: already know what they do in football, so it's it's
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: another a right, So tough one for Shannon.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: When a game like that rolls around and you don't
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: have a financial investment in the outcome. Billy, m hmm,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at you if you're just watching it as
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: a neutral fan, like, how is my life impacted if
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: Montreal wins or Buffalo? Well, Shannon's from Buffalo. That'd be
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: nice for her, but Montreal's storied franchise. I tend to
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: for some reason, Oh Canada. I tend to root for
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: Canadian teams. I want them to go further. I wouldn't
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: mind seeing them win a Cup once. You know, it'd
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: be just to see what it was like.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Again to remember and sparked those memories of they didn't
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: win anything in hockey this year, so they might exactly
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: didn't do anything in Italy. But when it comes to that,
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: when you you for a neutral game, when you're going
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: and like, I'm not going to watch this game and
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: be entertained, like okay, and then sometimes as you're watching it,
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: you may develop.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: A rooting interest. For sure, I like the way this
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: team's playing. There's something about the viber the fans, or
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: I want this or or they got screwed on that call.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: Now I'm rooting for.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: The other team.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: That's a fun way to ride the wave. And I
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: always tell people that's how I watch basically every.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: Game, kind of like because the story detached Yah observer,
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: So that's kind of like, let people like, that's my life.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: But then on the flip side of that, you have
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City and San Antonio, which to me is like
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: the finals.
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: This is like the best.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Series that na, those are the best series that we're
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: going to get of what's left. Yeah, I couldn't agree more.
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: And so this is and Oklahoma City, there's there was
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: such a breath of fresh air. As a small market,
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: we can relate being here and seeing them win, and
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: given their history the way they started out with you know,
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Harden and Durant didn't work out with Westbrook with the
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: Big three, and then now they've wanted Sga is an
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: amazing player, amazing.
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Story, two time MVP. But I'm watching that and then
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: it's like Wemby saying I'm the captain now and so
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: that story, So I have no reason to root against
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City, Like, there's no you can't be tired of
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: them after one year, Right, Yeah, I don't want to
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: dynasty and we didn't get we didn't get a lot
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: of that stuff down our throats. They're on national TV,
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: but it's not they don't get covered like Lebron. Right,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: so there's no there's no saturation with OKA. See, it's
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: an incredible organization there. They're poised to be good for
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: a long time, great front office, great coach, great players,
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: pretty good vibe with their fans and teams. And yet
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: it's like, well, san Antonio's news. So I'm kind of
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: like I'm on team san Antonio. Team Wemby. Let him
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: like put his stamp on it, let him establish that
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: he's the dude. Now that Lebron and Stephanosky are starting
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: to shuffle away, let's enjoy Wemby and his stylings for
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: a while.
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: So for some reason, I'm drawn to the Spurs. Every
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: time I see Pop, you get a lump in your throat.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say, you feel something when you see that.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: So it is a weird dynamic to watch that, and
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: so I have no reason to root against Okay, see,
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: but I find myself kind of leaning Team Sanatini well.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: And I also think Drue like, the greatness in the
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: moment is hard to not notice and enjoy, right Like
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: when when you see Wemby and somebody in that full
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: of cent again, I take it to Lebron because it
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: was very similar when he scores the what twenty five
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: points consecutive points against Detroit in the Eastern Conference finals.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: In that route, when he takes baby Booby Gibson and
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: company to the finals, You're like, this is the next
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: great guy having that first great moment. And that's clearly
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: what you've seen wemy Do. My man's gone through every
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: single title wave you can have in the NBA playoffs
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: in an NBA career, in one playoffs, like he's already
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: had his ejection. He almost was about to get one
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: last night when he just decided. He's like, I'm gonna
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: cam scataboo run through Alex Caruso for no apparent reason,
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: like is standing at the three point line. Caruso has
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: been in his kitchen all night long, and he's.
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: Like, I'm sick of this.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: It just barrel rolls them like it just to see that,
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: the mental makeup. It's like watching my toddlers see his brother,
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: like I need to knock him over.
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: I need to knock him over. I need to.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: I'm watching the wheels turn in his head as he's
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: running up the court and he does it.
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: It's hilarious.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then he hits a thirty footer that looks
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: like me shooting the ball from my kitchen to the
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: living room on a little tight.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: Ye.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: It's disgusting how talented and an alien ish he looks
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: out there. And when you hear somebody get it stuffed
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: down your throat, he's the next one.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be his league. Now, it's gonna be his league.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, Wendy, we get it all right,
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: you know, Yeah, you're in on we get a DP.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: You're in on Wemby. And then you watched last night
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: and You're like, Yeah, I guess I gotta be in
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: on Wemby too.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: He might he might just be taking this whole thing out.
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: He's exciting.
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: I mean, I think that's part of the reason people
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: feel that way. The way you described Drew is like,
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: it's not to take anything away from OKAC. They're a
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: great team. They've proven it. SG is a great player.
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: But you can't really compare the excitement level of both players,
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: Like Wemby is a much more exciting figure to watch,
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: and I'll kind of compare it to like if Miz
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: was pitching against like Tim Wakefield, like a knuckleballer or
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: a lefty's you know, change up art, you know what
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: I mean, Like both could get out. Ri Dickey was
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: the the knuckleballer that won the cy Young. It's not
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: that one can't be quality as well in terms of
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: performance getting out and SGA's quality. Of course, he's an
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: efficient score against points. He's one another MB and that's
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: the backdrop of last night, right, The VP thing is like,
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: but one is clearly more exciting to watch, where mis
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: is out there blowing the people away with one hundred
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: and three and all that stuff, and Wemby is like
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: you said, Billy that unbelievably you know, unique athletic specimen
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: where he is long, he's super huge, but super athletic,
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: can dunk, can shoot, do all these things, where SGA
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: is more of an like, more of a boring efficient
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: ordinary And I hate using that word because but it's true.
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: He's just not more is excited to watch, and therefore
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: okay See isn't as compelling in that sense. It's not
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: really fair because okay See is still a great team
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: and SG is still a great player. There's something wrong
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: they're doing. It's just and talking about undercovered. I think
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: they've been undercovered. Yeah, I mean they're there boring undercovered
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: champion we've ever seen. We've talked about this Billy going
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: into AW that's probably gonna have a great chance of
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: two ped I mean there's still even money on the
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: series market, so there's still a good chance.
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: Wow, So they flipped all the way down to even money.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: They were minus two seventy five going into the last night. Yeah,
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: both teams are one ten right out the lot sportsbook.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: And I think what's interesting about it is I think
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: a lot of people see okay See as dominant as
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: they've been as seeing their kryptonite, which can be you know,
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: San Antonio, which is the one team that's been able
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: to have their number. Then last night one again, I
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: mean obviously they could have gone either way. They're now
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: five and one over over the year, including the regular
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: season in playoffs, and it's the second forty and twenty
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: game for a Spurs player in the playoffs. Wo crazy,
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: him and him and David Robbins Robinson's that's pretty pretty
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: solid territory to be in.
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: This pretty good company.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: And also it's like you you start setting appointments, you
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: understand what you're gonna get here, and you're right, arman,
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: Like I heard Brusard say yesterday, Sga is all substance,
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: no flash, which.
• 32:46
  Speaker 3: Is the other thing.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: Is nothing wrong with that, No, But like the other
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: guys that are in the category of back to back
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: MVPs potentially back to back champs, like Magic Johnson was
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: the most exciting player ever to watch. He was all
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: flash and substance. Kobe Bryant was I'm gonna rip your
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: soul out. Everybody knows what you watched, even like with
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: Isaiah Thomas, the ridiculous handles and ability as she is like, Yeah,
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: I'm just gonna walk in very strangely, quietly. I'm gonna
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: score thirty draw files, play raw files, go to the
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: free throw line, then go home like a it's it's
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: there's There's not much that makes you feel anything, but
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: Damn Wenby makes you feel a whole lot of things.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: That guy is crazy and uh, you want to talk
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: about the six sports fan that Yard Drew. I watch
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: it and last night I enjoy watching the home crowds
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: walk out of there sad.
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: Maybe I'm that's mean of me, that's mean of me,
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: but I enjoyed having to watch.
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: Those Buffalo fans say, son of a gun, we did
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: it again, son of a gun.
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: It happened again.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: And I can't wait for w GR to fire up
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: this morning because they will be hurt.
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: Well, I grew up OUs kind of the opposite.
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: I cheer for the home team using those neutral environments
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: just because I saw the people wanted to be happy
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: and opposite.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: The Buffalonians are realizing the mantra of the huddle and
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: that I've had for many years. Ninety percent of being
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: a sportsman is getting kicked in the jimmy.
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: Yes, well it would have been wrong. If Buffalo wins,
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: that's not how.
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: The book goes true, that's right, and then they're not
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: coming to understand.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: And Montreal and Montreal will find heartbreak somewhere down the line.
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: I was gonna say, it's gonna happen.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: Well, if it's a if it's a Canadian team, it's
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: got to happen in this It's gotta happen in the finals.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: They got to take second place.
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: Well, and probably this round because the Hurricanes, if you
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: haven't noticed, they're a wagon.
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they're also cheap. All right, let's go come
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: on one more, four more games.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: But it's like they're a wagon. Well, Oklahoma City hadn't
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: lost the game in the playoffs still last night, and
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: they were a wagon.
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: It's like you can be a.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Wagon for a while. All Right, we're off and running.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: We're having some fun.
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: We're gonna start buying or selling coming up after six,
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: Dolph joins us at six thirty. When we come back,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: we'll hear Hunter's recap of a glorious evening at Wrigley

  Speaker 2: It's almost up now. I had glorious, glorious morning, were
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: glorious seas at that time of the year where it's
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: long days. It's fantastic. It's fantastic.
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: Nicolay Lot dot Com Talking text line eight seven seven
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: seven nine four one ninety seventy three. It'll be pumping
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: when we start buying and selling in the next hour
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: of the program. But right now, let's go to our
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: buddy Hunter Bombguard. He joined US live yesterday. He covers
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: the Brewers for US, hosts the Brews pregame show, Milwaukee's
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: Baseball Tonight always on Thursdays, as long as there is
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: in a night game. He'll be doing it this week
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: as well. So let's take it to Hunter Bombguart for
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: a recap of last night's victory at Wrigley.
• 36:02
  Speaker 5: Thanks guys, the Burers crushed the Cubs in their first
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: meeting of twenty twenty six. That's always fun to say, right,
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: A nine to three victory last night. Let's get to
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: the offense first. They scored eight runs off of showta Imanaga,
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: who hadn't given up more than four earned runs in
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: any start yet this season and had given up zero
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: or one run in six of his nine starts, but
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: the brewerors crushed him for eight runs. Jake Bauers went deep.
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: Christian Yellich went deep? How about Yelich?
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: He misses a month, comes back, plays a game, has
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: to miss four more days, and then he's hit a
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: homer in the two games after that. I mean, just
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: special player. Jake Bauers two nineteen game on base streak,
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: nine game hitting streak. He's hitting about four fifty over
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: those nine games and two homers, eight runs driven in
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: over those nine games too.
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: He has been special.
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: And also first time the Brewers had Yelich, Churio, and
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: Vaughan in the same lineup in twenty twenty six and
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: they scored nine runs coincidence, I think. Not On the
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: pitching side, Brandon Sprote and Chandowen. That's all the Bruers
• 36:59
  Speaker 5: needed to use. How about throwing out of the pen
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: four and a third, no runs, five strikeowns, didn't walk
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: a batter, save that bullpen too.
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: They're in the driver's seat for a series win.
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: Miss on the Mountain tonight, Kyle Harrison on the Mountain tomorrow.
• 37:10
  Speaker 5: I'll have you for the baseball pregame show on Fox
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: Sports nine twenty and Milwaukee at five thirty this evening.
• 37:14
  Speaker 5: The support brought to you by import Minded, your trusted
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: choice for exceptional vehicle care on Sound twenty seventh, just
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: north of eight ninety four.
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Back to you, guys, so nice. We might have to
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: listen to it twice. Hunter Bombgart with the recap of
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: last night's proceedings.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and to be able to know that you can
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: be walking into the Friendly Confines, walking across the street
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: from one of the establishments, or the soon to be
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: defunded DraftKings sports book right outside of Wrigley Field. Yeah,
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: shutting down at the end of the month and listening
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: to Hunter's pregame show.
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: I don't know what's better than that walking into Wrigleyfield.
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Fun.
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: That's a hard thing. That's a hard thing.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: To top of that thing, starting up at five thirty
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: here today, going into a misday.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Hitting two balls off the scoreboard.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: That might be better. Yeah, that's fair. Nice, I gotta say.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: I guess I didn't realize it shouldn't be that surprising.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: They haven't all been healthy that much at all. But
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: Surio Vaughn Yelich all in the same lineup first time
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: last night. You thought it would have happened throughout the week,
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: getting Yellis summit bats in front of this Cup series.
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: Drew Apparently all he needed was two games. That's it.
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: All you needed was two games, and he's ready to roll.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: He's that guy. I mean, he's been. It's the same
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: thing with Braun, Like the idea that Braun needed to
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: go to like Appleton and get some swings, Like come.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: On, is there, like is that an old baseball thing
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: that would that that some old school guys would be
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: rolling their eyes at, Like everybody needs to go and
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: see a couple of pitches.
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: Everyone needs to go double a see a couple of pitches.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because I like the fact that even what he's like, Hey,
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: I appreciate it, but if I'm gonna throw some innings
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: on this arm, Yeah.
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be up here. I'm not gonna go to natural.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Bullets.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: I'm not wearing jean pants up and up in Appleton anymore.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be pitching in the big leagues. I'll figure
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: it out and I'll get some big league hitters out
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: in there rehab.
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: Good to see Yellow tap with the power though, because
• 38:59
  Speaker 4: with the back thing, you know, that's the thing we
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: always concerned about, was how it would affect his power.
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: So seeing both those homers a site obviously for sore eyes,
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: and you know, hey, i mean if he's starting to
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: get lathered up now, I mean, we're gonna have a
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: fun stretch here, you know, so like you know, I.
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: Mean, yea, let's give the lather up. Hey he doesn't.
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you do need that. I mean you do need
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: your best player to, you know, show.
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: Up right well and take part. And Teario has been good,
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: but he hasn't a lot of homers yet. Well that's
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: for sure.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: So that's fine.
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's the Brewers the team haven't really you know,
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: but if that's part of it, and and Yellows can
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: get it going with the long ball, with the slugging,
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: now it's a totally different dynamic for the offense.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: There was Viny said it last night on the broadcast,
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: like just wait till the team starts hitting homes. But well,
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know that there's gonna be a crazy amount
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: of home runs in the lineup.
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: There will be some, no doubt about it.
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: And you know, but Jake Bauers nineteen consecutive games on
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: base drew, he's really ruining, uh, the old the old adage,
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: I mean like he Naggler's never right is one of
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: my favorite I love that common sayings. And Aaron Nagler
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: walks in here this year on our Draft show, fires
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: out Jagger Burton pen picks later. He's a Green Bay Packer, right, Like,
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: So there's things that you have to know are good
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: for the brand and not. Jake Bauer's doing this out
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: of spring training when being the talk of spring training.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Not good for the old adage of the red hot
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: guy in spring training. You might as well send them
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: down because he ain't doing that.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: Once he gets the ring club, Yeah, he's kind of squashed.
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: That's a roll that all through since the cat This
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: league hit us up eight seven seven seven.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: Nicolay Lottock, I'm talking text line ready for you as
