  Speaker 1: I don't even know why I'm hosting. I forgot to
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: ask you this the other day, but I'm not gonna
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: forget twice this student called a postseason game.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for about forty five seconds, you did check it
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: off the list.
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: I'm there.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: I got a lot of a lot of good feedback
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: from ESPN and then the boys there and uh, the
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: only thing I did wrong I forgot who was hitting.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: That's you know it it's hard.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: When I got there, They're like, all right, well he's
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: not back, go ahead, and I said, all right, here
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: we go. And I'm not mentally, you know, I just
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: started rambling some shit off excuse me stuff and the
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: way it went, man, it was a lot of fun.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: It's something you know, to think about. I think that'd
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: be pretty cool to try. And you know, call be
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: the play by play guy and it's it's a it's
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: I tell you what. It's a lot more work. Don't
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: get me wrong, I do all my homework. I do
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: a lot. But I understand if you're the top dog
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: like Scott has been, you know, his whole career, it's
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: it's a different ballgame. So it was fun for the
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: forty five seconds to a minute, I had it, but
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: I was relieved when Sean got back in there for.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Sure what happened? Are you allowed to share?
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think the door when he left
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: to go get something real quick, locked behind him. That's
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: what he told us. And no, he was banging on
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: the door. I guess the crowd was too loud you
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: couldn't hear him. And finally, I guess the security guy
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: that was there had something to open the door up.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: But we have a code red national broadcaster for ESPN
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: for this game. Cannot get into the broadcast with code red.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: I guess rule thumb don't ever lock the door any
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: or don't ever shut the door, just in case. So
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: security was tight there, which is good.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we like that. We like that. But Todd father
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: was a play by play guy for game one. Yeah,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: towards the beginning of Game one. Ye, So there you go.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: If you want to look back, I'm sure you can
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: find it somewhere.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Later today we are going to do a postgame show
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: on the Mariners and the Tigers. We are crossing fingers
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: that will start on time. That'd be cool. I know
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: that it's a little wet out in Detroit. Hopefully not
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: too Cray, but Mariners Tiger's Game three series is tied
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: at one. We've been doing postgame shows. We had one
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: late on Monday night. We did the Cubs Brewers follow up,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: and then we also broke down the Phillies and Dodgers.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: We'll talk more about those series throughout the show here,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: but just letting you know that we did do live
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: shows and post videos in case you missed them for
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: postgame thoughts. Now, let's charge charge, all right, Todd father,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: we haven't had Yawn since the Blue Jays smacked the Yankees.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: I know you like to virtually smack Aeric Kratz. This
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: was in person here two games tons of offense from Toronto.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Yankee showed some fight in game two, but overall for
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: a team that you've covered all year, really you've seen
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: both the Yankees and the Blue Jays quite frequently. Your
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: thoughts on these two so far.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: Well, not very good if you want.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: The truth, Well, not very good for the Yankees.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, that's what I'm meant. If people know me,
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: they understand where I'm coming from. To give up that
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: many runs. I remember I was watching I was at
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: my sister and lost her little birthday party. I'm sitting
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: there watching the game, and you know, we're all rooting
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: for the Yankees. Bases loaded, and you got Aaron Judge
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: up with nobody out here. We go the time to
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: come and he swung at ball four. It was just
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: you could feel it. After that, it's like, oh yeah,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: you got the run in from Bellinger and then it
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: was just you get one run with bases loaded and
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: you're still down two to one, and the wheels fell off.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: I I you know, I don't know if Toronto just
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: has their number this year, and it's it's kind of amazing,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: you know. I think it's I'm not saying Blue Jays
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: aren't a good team, but it just seems like it
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: shouldn't be this far of a disconnect of run scored
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: and everything else goes to show you that Toronto is
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: one of the best places to play in, one of
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: the toughest places to win in. In a playoff atmosphere,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Vlad Guerrero, I mean, holy cow, Junior, he's taking off,
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: you know, no, Bobashett and guy says, you know what,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: I got this, I'll take the reins, give me, give
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: me the reins.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: I got it.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: I mean, you look at his numbers, absolutely silly right
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: now and he MVP right now status for him. And
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: the pitching has been absolutely phenomenal. Kevin Gosman. I mean,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: we knew how good of a pitcher he was. He's
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: just stepping up that.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: It's a split change that he throws is absolutely filthy.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Looks like a fastball falls off the planet Earth. I mean,
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: got to swing at it because it looks so tasty.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean there's so much more you can
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: say about this team. They are just getting pushed in.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: They are just getting absolutely crushing. That's the Yankees and
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: they got to figure it out. Been a part of
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: both of them. Been with the Yankees when we're down,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: oh two against the Guardians and now you're gonna have
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: to step up and win two at home.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: You guys won that serious.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, we came back in one three in a row.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: And I've been on the other end two you know,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: we beat We were up against the Giants in two
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: thousand and fourteen, thirteen maybe and.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Twelve or fourteen, yeah, one twelve, excuse me.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: And we go to San France and we want two
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: in a row and we're flying home fielding really good,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: and then you know an error in the in the
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: top of the ninth. They won three two, and you
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: see it. It's that one game. It's that momentum shift.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: If you can win game three in best out of five,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: it just turns it just a little bit more to
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: be like, oh the other like Toronto. If the Yankees
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: win today, all of a sudden, Toronto's gonna be on
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: their heels. The Yankees got nothing to lose. They got
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: to go out and dominate. Toronto's like, all right, we
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: still have two games, but we'd like to win here.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: So it's that psyche and that mentality of we don't
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: want to get it to a game five.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: So game three is very very important.
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: Todd, we played the Indians in twenty seventeen.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: And.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Big thing.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: I remember a grand Slam kind of broke our back
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: in that in that game, kind of like a grand
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: Slam broke the Yankees back by by Vladdie. Kind of
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: wasn't even that close when we were in Cleveland, and
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: I remember sitting in a bullpen like really like these
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: guys are beating us. And then and then we went
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: back home, took game three, and then you had the
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: Andrew Miller Greg Bird game. When you go back home,
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: you have the exact same ability to dominate the team
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: that you dominated at home during the regular season. I
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: think the Blue Jays correct me if I'm wrong, are
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: one in eight in their last nine games at Yankee Stadium,
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: So to me, I think it kind of shifts to
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: the Yankees a little bit. But the Yankees got to
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: come out and they got to get on top here
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: because you can't keep playing from behind, especially from behind
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: two or three runs.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: This episode is presented by Fox One are presenting sponsor
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: for the next few weeks. Here the playoff coverage is
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: brought to you by Fox one on foul Territory because
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: we want to keep reminding everyone that all Alds and
• 6:52

• 7:18
  Speaker 1: calling again. If you're like, ah, I don't have an
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: option here. Fox one seven day free trial, go check
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: it out. They have live goats. Like you like that
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: he does? He does. It's a great headshot for him anyway,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: stream all your Fox favorites together in one place at
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: the Fox one app. Don't you think this is going
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: to be a tough team to beat three in a
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: row regardless, just based on some of the standout pitching
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: that they have. And I know that could be looked
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: at it as the weaker point of the team, right
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: maybe parts of the bullpen, But I think there are
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: enough talented arms, there's enough contact in the offense. It's
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: about who's clicking at the right times. This is a
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Boba sheetless offense too, by the way, that looks really
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: damn good right now. But like you said, Blady has
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: the ability to be a top five hitter in the sport.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: He's doing that right now. He's tough to strike out,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: he'll take a walk, and he's got crazy pop the
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: dream bat.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: And he's not afraid of the moment. And I think
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: that's the biggest thing. You see him stepping up in
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: these moments. There's not much more you can say about
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: the guy. He's absolutely phenomenal. You know, you say, oh,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: he had a bad year. You know, I remember two
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: years ago he didn't hit a home run at home
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: until halfway during the season. Something like that. The dude
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: can freaking flat out play and that's the issue. There's
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: not one pitch you can get by him. You get
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: O two, don't make a mistake. He's looking for that
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: pitch and he's been absolutely filthy with it. And you know,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: I always talk about riding that wavescooter and next thing,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: you know, it's like, God, how can the Yankees do this?
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: But they can. They do have the firepower. They have
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: to find a win to win this one. In Game four,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: we don't know if it's a bullpen game for the
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: for the Blue Jays or not, but if it is
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: with Cam Schlitzler, who's riding really high right now, we
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: could see this calling back to Toronto. But again, this
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: is the most important game. Win the day and move forward.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Stop worrying about where you're at in the in placement.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Mm hm, Hey, I thought the Blue Jays made a
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: brilliant trade and pick up with the Shane Bieber acquisition
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: at the deadline, and this is his time to shine.
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: Biaber's been around for a while. I know he hasn't
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: had a ton of starts yet since coming back from
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: the surgery, but he's not going to be phased at
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Yankee Stadium.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: At all, not at all.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Reddan's good, But to me, this matchup is kind of
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: a wash. I mean, I feel like they're both number
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: two ish yeah starters.
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: Shane b reminds me of that Dylan see is kind
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: of attitude, just like, give we go a grippet of
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: repidies my best pitches. You can hit it, go ahead,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: but most of the time you're really not gonna hit it.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: What do you think, go ahead?
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: No, You're fine?
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: No, No. About the pitching matchup, Kratz, I mean, do
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: you think there's an edge?
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: I mean, I think Rodan's had a little bit of
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: trouble against the Blue Jays because he's been walking guys
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: and obviously they're not going to strike out a ton,
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: So that's where I see the issue there. But I
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: think Bieber has the edge if and I'm going back
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: to twenty twenty and I said this to Bieber when
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: he was on the show here he was tipping in
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: twenty twenty in Cleveland, they were the home team because
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: COVID you had to go the first round to the
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: home team, and we went in there and I think
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: that was Cy Young Shae Shane Bieber, and it was
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: basically a separation between his glove coming up and his
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: leg coming up. There was more separation, less separation somewhere
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: in there, and they had him g went to write
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: center off of them, I think maybe twice. But so
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: if he can eliminate that, if he can avoid that,
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: this is his first start against them this season. To me,
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: I think the advantage is with the Jays pitching matchup
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: if they don't have something else on them.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Okay, if Aaron Judge doesn't have a big home run
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: in Game three and the Yankees fall, how do you
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: look at this postseason and his postseason legacy so far.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I know he has to win a World Series to
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: solidify things as a legend in New York. He hasn't
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: done that yet. He's getting knocks. He doesn't look as
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: lost as he did last year, but you do have
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: to deliver in the big moments and Also, he doesn't
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: look like the same guy. I mean, the expectations are
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: sky high. They should be. He's the best hitter in
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: our generation, but he's not the same hitter in the postseason.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: And it's not like we're getting a game or two
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: here or there. I mean, he's locked some pretty serious
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: postseason time.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Listen, when you talk about legend, he's gonna be a
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: legend either way in my book, whether he wins a
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: World Series or not. He's just gonna go down as
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: a person that hasn't won a World Series for the Yankees.
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: And that's it. There's been a bunch of them.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Don Maddingly the name one who isn't absolutely phenomenal who
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: he was an absolutely phenomenal baseball player and manager. You
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: shouldn't think of this guy any different. He's an absolute stud.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: He's hitting the ball. It's a totally different Aaron Judge. Yeah,
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: he hasn't pop one out, and eventually that will come
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: with more games if it happens. But there's no doubt
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: in my mind he's one of the most prolific hitters
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: we're ever going to see in our time. And there's
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: no other way you should think about him like that.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: Everybody talks about the playoffs. I remember when we were
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: in there in seventeen Cratzy, how good was he? He was
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: absolutely filthy. So you know it's hit or miss. But
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: this year he's doing just fine. The power numbers just
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: aren't there.
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: What are you going to do if he hits eight
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: hundred for the rest of the postseason, he hits five
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: more dingers and they lose in Game seven of the
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: World Series, it won't matter. It won't matter if you want.
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: If he wants to be legend status like is Don
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: Mattingly legend status like the guys who won all those
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: championship I would say he's probably a tier below if
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: he wants that legend status. I don't think he wants
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: that legend status. I think he just wants the World
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: Series ring. But if he wants that does not matter
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: what he does. It only matters what the team does.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: You're talking Jeter Posada, Mo, anybody was Babe, we're.
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: Talking Yankee history. We're not talking baseball history. Baseball history.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: He's going to go down as an unbelievable hitter. I'm
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: talking Yankee history. How he's going to be remembered.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Let me ask you this question, if you had to
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: pick a right fielder the most Yankees from when they
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: first started to now, who's going.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: To be your right fielder?
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: You mean best ones?
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're going with the all time Yankee lineup,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: is Aaron Judge in that lineup?
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: How about that? Sorry? Yeah, okay, that's a legend of me.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: Though, No, okay, he's done first base.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: I'm thinking back to all the first basemen. I can't
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: I can't think. I think it would have to be
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: no who else.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to simplify it here for me, Like, here's
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: the thing. He's in one thousand o ps guy, and
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: in the playoffs in the last several years, he's more
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: like a seven to fifty.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, sure, sure that power numbers have dropped ye in
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: the playoffs. Of course, you know nobody's denying that. But
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: the team is.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Built for him to look like he did in the
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: regular season, and if he doesn't, the team is not
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: the same. Last year they had the gian Carlos stan
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Is on another planet card this year not yet. So
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: if you don't get that, they're waiting for Judge bases
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: loaded that opportunity. You watch Judge all year, you're like
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: walk minimum, maybe double or a Grand Slam, and he
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: doesn't come through. And I know it's just one ab,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: but my point is, overall Kratz, if he doesn't look
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: like a beast as he does in the regular season,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: it does cost the Yankees. They're built for him to
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: be a one thousand oh ps guy playoffs regular season.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: I know it's tougher pitching in the playoffs, but still
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: I would say when you look at his abs, they're
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: nice abs. It's just not what we usually see from
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: him exactly.
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but we can't meld like the conversations into like
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: does it matter to the Yankees. Yeah, it matters, like
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: it definitely matters, But we're talking about his legacy. To me,
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: I think it's a little different and one at bat.
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: One at bat doesn't change people's minds because Emmanuel Clausse
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: would say Judge had a pretty decent at bat against
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: him last year, kind of a big spot went apo
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: rocket down the right field line, Like there's it's not
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: one at bat. To me, it's not the results. It's
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: about does he get a ring or does he not
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: get a ring? If we're talking about legacy, does the
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: team need him to do well for them to get
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: a ring. Yes, but I think they're two different arguments
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: or discussions, and.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: I don't I don't want to keep going at you,
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: which we don't.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: I'm just from my opinion.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: I think his legacy is always going to be there,
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: no matter if he wins a World Series with that help,
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: of course, but he's got sixty two home runs, you know,
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: besides Barry Bonds, he's the only one to ever reach
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: that plateau. So he's the home run leader in a
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: single season. He's a guy that has feared all over
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: the land. We might never see a guy of this stature,
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: you know. Show Hao Tani. I feel like he's in
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: a different world because he pitches. But for me, he's
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: my number one pick overall after Show Hao Tani, pretty
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: much everybody so and last thing, I had a brain fart.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Lou Garrick was a first baseman. I just had a
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: brain fart there.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: He would be my pick at first base, Scott.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: It's a good pick, all right. Pinstripe Territory will go
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: over this. I think Derek's been, you know, a little
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: bit critical because he's like Judge has to show up
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: in those spots. That's how this team's built. I'm sure
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: trying to bring the message over from Derek. You can
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: listen more to Derek. He's posting pregame shows. He's got
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: postgame shows like he does all season long, and he'll
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: have one after the Yankees and the Blue Jays. Reminder,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: we're doing hours after that first game, the Tigers and
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: the Mariners, a Philly special. That's NBC Philly reporter John Clark,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: who's a who. I'd been around him plenty of times.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: He's always got his phone on with video. But he
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: did capture the Duran entrance and we talked about this
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: a little little bit last night with Kratz. They were booing,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: not Duran, they were booing life. They lost both.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: Games at home.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: They've lost a lot of playoff games at home lately.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: What was the score of that thing? They were down
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: right when he came.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they were down by a few.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: See, I think all closers, if you're not up in
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: the game, they shouldn't have the lights in it. They
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: could have the music. You don't want the pumping cert don't.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: I don't want that, especially when you're down, when you
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: could play your favorite song, you know, for Edwin, go ahead,
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: but you don't have to the lights and everything else.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: In my opinion, if it's the fans for okay, you
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: want to do it for the fans. But when you're
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: losing coming in a game, play the music, try and
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: get everything going and work from there.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: I like that.
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: I like that. I think this is why Philly fans
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: booed Santa Claus because when they're mad, that's what they do.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: They boo about Josh Naylor having a kid. Oh man,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: that's a baseball fan.
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: That's awesome.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: But he's back, so we don't need to talk about
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: any bs with the with the kid at this time.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: And is he going to miss the game? He's back,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: you need to make the trip initially. He's in the
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: starting lineup for Game three. And if he wasn't then
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: missed the game. He's having a kid.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Listen, life comes me for anything else. I don't care
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: what you say. You cannot plan of the time. There's
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: stuff you could do to plan things. Have children.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: Some can't.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you want to bring you want to bring beautiful
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: children into the world.
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: Any day, anytime. Game seven. I don't really care children.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: First, Yep, you don't miss.
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: You don't miss the birth of your child unless something,
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: unless you can't get there for some reason, like he
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: had the chance to be there. It's awesome in the
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: off day, like, yeah, you missed the game. Sorry, sorry
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: fans may Daby fan should look at it too and
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: be like it's okay. It's okay.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Unless you're a Kratz and you have five kids a
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: fifth one you can miss.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: Right right eventually, Yeah, tell one of them.
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: We got a girl, we got a boy. Just let
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: me know, make sure, just call me, send me a picture.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: It looks like me. Yeah. But but but good for
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Josh and the fam. And yes, if that delivery was
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: happening during game three, you would not be there, but
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: he will be there ft fam. Let's talk about Superpower.
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Eric Kratz is a proud Superpower customer, and he's going
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: to give us more of the personal experience. But I'll
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: just start it with this. You ever go to the
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: doctor and Doc's just like, oh, drink more water. Are
• 19:52

• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Superpower does that for you. They give you the experience
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: that athletes get with teams.
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: The lab results came back for me. Now it's streamlines
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: everything that I kind of had an idea of but
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: now it really lets me focus on the things that
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: I'm deficient in, the things that I that I have good,
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: good lab test results from, and I could go in
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: that direction.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: I want to go nutritional guidance, supplement suggestions, you name it.

• 20:51
  Speaker 1: We had a great live postgame show recap reactions to
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: the Brewers and the Cubs. We have that on our
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: YouTube channel. We did that right after the game with
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Craft and Kevin Pillar. Are going to give you more. Now,
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: here is the aftermath the day after the hangover for
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: the Chicago Cubs right now, because they're one loss away.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: I was riding their being done.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: So man, I was riding high.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: What did you expect? And then what did you see?
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: I expected them to not give up that many runs in.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: The first inning of the first game, and I expected
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: them I expect to be a low scoring game. I said, yeah,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: I did, just because of what I saw before against
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: the Padres, a nasty, nasty team meaning good. I expected
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: a love scoring game. I expected the cub to find
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: a way to win one of those games you go
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: three to nothing. I was watching like, oh my god,
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Suzuki just had an absolute missile, and then mister ol'
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: vaughn said time out.
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: I'm just gonna pop fly to left.
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: My wait, oh my god, it's gone three run Jimmy jacket.
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: Next thing you know, I'm like, this game's over. That's it.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: You can't give up the three run homer in the
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: first and then another three run home in the bottom
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: of the first and think like you're in You're the Cubs.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: You're like, god, we just gave him our best punch
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: and they just went bang bang bang.
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: That It is this.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Shutdown in your mind. You know, when you hit that
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: three run homer, even though it's in the first inning,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: if you get past that bottom one, does that mean anything?
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: It does, dude. Yeah, the reaction right after the next at.
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: Least a momentum, at least of momentum.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's game over, but that's that's like, okay,
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: all right, we're here, all right, let's go.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: So sorry Cratzy jumped.
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: I don't know the whole the whole shutdown anything. I'm
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: kind of it's kind of like home field advantage. Is
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: there a momentum thing, yes, but the shutdown inning if
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: you need, if you need to be like, oh, I
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: gotta get up as a pitcher, I gotta get up
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: for this inning. The boys need me.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: To shut it down.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: You're cooked.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: You're cooked. It's not gonna happen. Like you better. You
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: better be going out there to shut every one of
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: them dudes down, every single pit you're throwing. So is
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: it big for the hitters? Yeah, it's big for the hitters.
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: If you go one, two, three, boys are like, man,
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: I just took my batting gloves off. I'm ready to
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: get my second at bat already here it's like seven
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: minutes ago we were just hitting that. That's helpful.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I think having the Maze throwing enough strikes, he's going
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: to be helpful for Milwaukee.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: That was nasty and where there we all talked about
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: his second half. I mean, his fastball was electric, it
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: was just absolutely by you. And then a slider at
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: ninety five.
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: What is that? Why does anybody want to play anymore?
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: When it's got a ninety five mile hour slider. It's
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: not a slider, it's just a cut fastball. That's filthy.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: God, ninety five, that's five mile an hour difference, and
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: it will get you out in front. How How are
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: you out in front of a ninety five mile an
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: hour cut slide? Yankee, doodle dandy, don't. I don't know.
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: I'm just he was nasty, and you know he drew
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: upwards of forty something pitches, but god, two walks, four strikeouts,
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: I don't care. You go walk the whole side. You're
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: still not getting anybody. Then that was really good showing
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: by him.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: He's got to throw enough strikes though, That is the key, right,
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, he threw just enough. There were times you're
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: looking and you're like, okay, is he gonna find the
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: zone enough? And I don't remember if it was like
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: second or third av maybe he's facing someone. He falls
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: behind three to zero and I'm like, oh, are we
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: just gonna get a string of misses here? But he
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: corralled it.
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: He did. Carrell. If you watched Contraras just stayed in
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: the middle of the plate. He would back up some sliders,
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: he would throw the fastball up above his zone. By accident,
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: he just stayed in the middle of the plate. And
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: it was like, let's just let's just throw heaters, which
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: is a which is also like, that's scary to do.
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: You had a one run lead after the Contrera's home run,
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: and you're like, all right, I guess you know he's
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: you know, we can't give up a run here. We
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: don't want him to tie the ball game up. They
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: were like, I think our stuff plays the whole zone.
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: He hung a he hung an indoor curveball. He hung
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: a curveball inside for strike three to Dansby Swanson. That
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: was eighty nine. But Todd, You're going, oh my gosh,
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: this guy's nasty. This guy's so nasty. You're looking at
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: the numbers. My thing is, I don't see the swings
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: coinciding with the numbers. Maybe I'm wrong, and it was
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: a great outing. I don't know how much confidence Pat
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: Murphy has going forward. I wonder if he's like, all right,
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: did it, got it. It's out of the way. I'm
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: wondering what I'm wondering, what's gonna be what his next
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: outing will look like.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: H Okay, I mean he might not have one. I'm
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: they in this series pretty quickly, but yeah, going forward, say,
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: if he's taken on the Dodgers will be interesting. It's
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: a pretty patient team too, all right, So Bridge ROLLI
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: just put out this big manager carousel update. A few
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: of the notable notes. Former Big League catchered Nick Hunley
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: the favorite for the opening with the Giants. You spoke
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: about that the other day. Albert is the favorite for
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: the Angels gig, but Tory Hunter and Kurt Suzuki are
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: also in the mix. She said. Rocoball Deli, Brandon Hyde,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: and Davey Martinez want to manage again. Colorado's waiting to
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: hire their front office leader first, then they'll figure out manager.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Lots of other notes on here, anything stick out so
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: far to you guys in terms of the openings.
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: Not the openings, but the guys who are free agents.
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: I love that for Rockoball Deli, I love that he
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: got out of there because the ORG wasn't behind him,
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: especially like what I've heard from his players about him,
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: what I've heard from people have talked to him about it.
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: Like to me, I think he can slide into one
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: of the few jobs that they need a winner right away,
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: and people in misso it'll be like, oh, he's not
• 26:54
  Speaker 4: a winner. He created a bad environment for them to lose.
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: No to me, I think I don't know if he
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: has those connections with alex Anthopolis, but going down to Atlanta,
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: somebody with experience like that knows how to deal with
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: a team, but also knows, Hey, you know what, We're
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: just gonna kind of go and put those boys out there,
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: let him play.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: And a chip on your shoulder manager, I think is
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: a thing too. Obviously he's gonna do what he does.
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: But does Rocco Balldli want to win? And I know
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: he can't control the game, right but if he goes
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: to the Braves, for example Kratz, I mean, he could
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: have a very good team from the jump. I don't
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: know if that's going to happen, but I like the call.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Derek Falvey, who's the head of the front office for
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: the Twins, said something along the lines of this is
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: on me, and I'm like, you're a nice guy, but
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: it's not on you. You just put it on Roco. It's
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: not at all. If it was on you, you wouldn't have.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: You put it on rock All baby, it's.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: On me, but we fired him. That's not how it works.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: Listen, there's two names right here. I'm a little biased
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: because I really like these two guys. I want my
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: boy lash Ryan Flaherty to get a managerial job. I've
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: come up with the ranks with him. We had the
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: same agency together, we actually roomed together. He's a clown,
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: but he's a smart human being and he really knows
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: the game of baseball.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: He's been coaching for a long time now. He knows
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: ins and outs.
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: He's a computer whiz now, maybe not back in the day,
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: but he knows his stuff. And George Lombard, man, this
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: guy is a truly remarkable dude. His wife went the Rutgers,
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: so I got to give him the upper hand too.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: Just putting it out there. Yeah, I'd love to see
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: those two guys get a shot a big stut Flarity
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Rockies my call, Oh that would be lobbly.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Ft fam. Another reason why you should love Arena Club
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: is the grading system. So you recently pulled a slap
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: pack and then you said, hey, it's not great. Great
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: it for me? They gave you an eight point five
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: out of ten on your Auto whitey Ford card and
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: then they show you all the details of the grading system.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: It's very interactive within the app, and then you're done.
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: If you want to sell the card or you want
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: to know what it's worth, you've got it.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: It's like getting taken a school on cards. And I
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: think that's the coolest part of it. If you're young
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: or old, you understand, hey, this is how it gets
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: deciphered all the way through. It shows you the numbers
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: and how they went through it. I think that's the
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: coolest part about this whole thing. And then you can
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: keep it traded or sell it or whatever you want.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: And it's so much more efficient to do this through
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: Arena Club. Whether you're ripping a pack, there's the slab packs,
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: buying a card, selling a card, grading a card, it's
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: all there for you. We talk about it all season long.

• 29:48
  Speaker 1: we're talking about the play that changed the Dodgers Phillies series.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: The wheel play, Tell me about it. You're a third baseman.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: How often does this happen? How does this get drawn up?
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: This way? Was the bunt the right move? Give me everything?
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: This is going to be maybe maybe one time out
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: of the whole year that you get that opportunity and
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: do it right.
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: Cratzy.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: It's got to be put on either by the bench
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: coach or a player. You talk about it, you go
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: over this in spring training and you I don't know
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: about you, Kratzy, but you barely do it during the year.
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: And if you do, you do it half assed. You're
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: going through the motions. You just want to get it
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: over with. They ran it to perfection. Maximuntsey crashes, Mookie
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Betts breaks late, Castianos doesn't get off the bag more.
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: He needed to get off more there. I thought his
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: momentum was stuck at second. It was a perfect throw.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Freddie Freeman get in the second base so Stott couldn't
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: get to second.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: Everything was perfect. Once he threw the third I'm like,
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: oh my god, it's not a force. What is he doing?
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: Boom got him. It was a monster play. It was gutsy.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: It was ballsy and it worked perfect. The bunt was great.
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: You can't blame him for bunting a third base. That's
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: what you're taught to do. You want the third basement
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: a crash because nobody's ever at third base unless it's
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: a tie game first and second and you're trying to
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: get the out of third. Phenomenal job. And this is
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: why this is a World Series caliber team. They've done
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: it before and they took a chance. Guess what what happens?
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: They don't get the guy out a third Oh boy,
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: they could tie the game and then you go to
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: extra innings. Whatever phenomenal play. As a third baseman, I
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: get goosebumps. I get fired up for because it never works,
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: and that worked and it wasn't even a forced play.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: And they have to in this situation. We know that
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: Mookie called it. He's got to know his personnel. Because
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: the best bunt play with a runner on second, whether
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: the first or second or runner on second, it's the
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: bunt play that we use all the time when I
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: coach high school is I want the pitcher to crash
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: the third baseline. The picture has to be athletic, The
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: pitcher has to be trustworthy, but he has to crash
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: the third baseline hard Brian Butterfield came up with this.
• 32:04
  Speaker 4: Third baseman stays home shortstop, I mean the shortstop cover second.
• 32:09
  Speaker 4: Second baseman goes to first. First basement basically covers the mound,
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: and you're leaving first base vacant. Because of what Todd said,
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: you bunt the ball to third. If the first baseman's
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: crashing the mound and the pitcher's crashing the third baseline,
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: you're making the pitcher pick that up. They ran it
• 32:26
  Speaker 4: opposite where Vessia really wasn't even going to be in
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: this play. Taking the ball out of the pitcher's hand
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: is genius. I think what's overshadowed here because MOOKI called
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: to play. Mookie did a great job at disguising it
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: and making up two steps on Castianos who didn't have
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: a jump, is how hard that play is for Max
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: Munsey to come running in plant and turn and fire it.
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: Todd knows there's plenty of times when you run this
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: drill and that ball's bunted where stop bunted it. I'm waiting.
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: I'm waiting until Edmund or whoever was playing second at
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: that time, gets the first and I just get the
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: out at first. We're good, nothing hurt. We're just gonna
• 33:08
  Speaker 4: stay away from a sack fly with a run on
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: a third.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: We have Max Munty talking about this, so I think
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: it's worth the thirty seconds here. It is.
• 33:18
  Speaker 5: You know, wheel play is not something with that we
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: traditionally do. But as soon as as soon as we
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: got in that situation, me move and Tommy immediately started
• 33:25
  Speaker 5: talking about, hey, we gotta we gotta try something different here.
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: We can't just play standard bump play. And when when
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: that came out made the pitching change, we talked to
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: him about it and he was all on on board,
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: and you know, I'm gonna credit Mook.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: It was it was his idea.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: We got to go.
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: You know, he's saying, we gotta go wheel player. We
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: got to wheelay, And so we talked about how we
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: were gonna do it, and uh, you know, we we
• 33:41
  Speaker 5: get executed it to perfection.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: How big could you feel the momentum change getting that
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: out at third base?
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's huge. You know, you get that, you get
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: that guy off second base, you get it out there,
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: and you know it's just that that changes everything in
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: that ning.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: That took me back to like, I don't know when
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: you're when you're playing whatever sport you're playing, and there's
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: that one guy who's like, oh, we got to do
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: something different. We gotta do the wheel play. Guys, we
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: gotta do the wheel play. And you're like, I don't know, man,
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: a little dicey. It's just like, damn, he hasn't been
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: a shortstop for very long either. He's been doing this
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: his whole white athlete. Yeah, freaking athlete. That's cool. That's
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: why you bring on winning players. I mean, obviously the
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Dodgers have a lot of money and resources, but so
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: do many other teams, and they seem to be in
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: these spots over and over again.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: Before you call, tell me I'm wrong. Here was did
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: it seem like it was home field advantage there?
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: Man?
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: I felt like just by looking at some of the
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: bats swarbur and and Harper, it just seemed like they're swinging.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: They were trying to hit a you know, eight run
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: homer instead of just trying to drive the ball. The
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: opposite way. To me, I felt like if they weren't going,
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: the crowd wasn't in it as much.
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: I mean, if they weren't going, no, no, You're right.
• 34:53
  Speaker 4: If they weren't going the crowd wasn't in it. Philly
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: Philly fans are definitely They're not fair weather because they
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: love their team. But if it ain't going well, they're
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: not going to be like everybody, here's the turner, the
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: Trey Turner, like standing ovation, no, no, no, no, like
• 35:08
  Speaker 4: this is postseason. The fans are panicked. Is it the Philly?
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: Are the Phillies panicked? I don't think they're panicked. I
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: think they're trying to do the same thing that they've
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: done all year. I think they've run into some brutal pitching.
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: And I agree with bunting there. And I want to
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: know if Topper called it because they brought Invader to
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: pinch hit. So if you're bringing invader to pinch hit,
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: is he a home run guy? Is he driving the
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: ball with a runner on second to be able to
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: score a guy? I don't know. I agree with the bunt.
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: You are giving yourself so many more chances of scoring
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: a runner from third than you are from second. You
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: have to get a hit. How many hits did they
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: have at that point, especially coming off the bench. It's
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: to me, it's to me, it's a no brainer.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: On the bunt, I think so you had the right
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: person doing it. He didn't do anything wrong. He bunted
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: at the perfect time. Maybe if you saw him crashing
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: a little bit more, you come back and slash. But
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: at the same token, it's the playoffs. Everything's gonna be
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: blown up more. They just made better execution. You tip
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: your cap and you're like, shoot, what could have done different?
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: Nothing.
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: They made an executional play and they did it to perfection.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: Do you think the Phillies have a chance, I mean
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: they No.
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: I don't think they do. I don't.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: I think the Dodgers are just playing out of their
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: minds right now. And it's playoff baseball, which they've been doing,
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: so I shouldn't say they don't have a chance.
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: But it's not. It's not going to be.
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: It's going to be very hard for them to come
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: back to Philly and get another win.
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: I would say the Phillies have a chance because of
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: how we thought they were gonna win the series anyway.
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: They have really good pitching. Their pitching isn't gonna decline.
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: The Dodgers have only scored in one inning, the seventh
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: inning in Game one. Everything in Game two so they've
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: done a good job of keeping them off the basis,
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: but it's not going to happen at all for Philly
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: if it doesn't come from postseason legends like Kyle Schwarber,
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: Bryce Harper, guys who have had those big moments and
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: can carry their team. If you can't keep those two
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: guys off the bases, the Dodgers will not win if
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: they continue to do what they're doing. Game three is
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: going to be a cinch for him.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: Kratz last thought here looking back, is there anything that
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: you would have done differently as far as deploying your
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: pitching staff Rangers. Suarez is going to piggyback Aaron Nolan
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: game three. He's been a big game pitcher for them,
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: and then also Durand pitching late in this game when
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: they were already trailing by quite a bit. Would you
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: be super ballsy and try and pitch them to just
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: keep the score the way it is, like, give me
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: anything that you would have done, And I know it's
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: easy to look back that maybe is a little bit
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: less traditional than what was going on here.
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: Change you mean changing what they've already done or what
• 38:03
  Speaker 4: they're going forward and going to do going forward? If
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: you think Aaron, Nola and Ranger Suarez combined have to
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: give you six innings. I love starting Nola because you
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: can't go Ranger and an elimination game. You get any
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: kind of traffic and go poop. No, nope, we're done,
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: We're done. We're done. Nola's gonna pick up the rest
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: of the innings. Nola's the wild card.
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: To me.
• 38:28
  Speaker 4: Nola comes out, he gets one or two guys on Bang,
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: you might go right to You might go right to Kirkering,
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: you might go right to Strom in that first inning,
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: and it will be something that Nola could give you four.
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: But Nola's biggest problem has been he's had one blow
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: up inning. Is that inn't going to be the first
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: inning and then the Phillies are down three to nothing.
• 38:53
  Speaker 4: That's the risk that you take. But to me, I
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: think you take Nola first and then you go Ranger
• 38:58
  Speaker 4: and Duran. He's gonna give innings. It might be the
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: seventh and eighth because he might have to face his
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: pocket during that time, and then they're gonna get another
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: inning and they're gonna figure out who's gonna close it out.
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: It might not be somebody, it might not be somebody
• 39:12
  Speaker 4: you think that's gonna close the game out if the
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: Phillies are winning.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about Craig Breslow. At his exit press conference,
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: he said, quote, We've talked a lot about how this
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: window of contention is upon us. Other quotes, every team
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: gets better if you can bring in a starter or
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: develop a starting pitcher. He can pitch at Crochet's level.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: Talking about wanting to get another start of this offseason,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: They're going to be as aggressive as they can to
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: try to chase that down.
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: And you can say it, spit all you want, great, We.
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: Just want to know about the throttle.
• 39:46
  Speaker 4: We just want to do the best we can because
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: we have a team that can win. If I'm the
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: Red Sox and I just or if I'm a Red
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: Sox fan and I just got Craig breslo in after
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: having clearly hein Bloom has done what he's done and
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: he's kind of built this team, I want to hear
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: Craig Brusli go, We're gonna bring a winning team to
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: this city World Series or bust for me. I'm willing
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: to put my name on the line, and I hope
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: everybody in the organization front off or front office players.
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: Everything gets in line. Because I'm the one that leads
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: this charge. I have backing from ownership. They're gonna make
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: me spend They're gonna get me to spend money. We're
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: gonna do this. The World Series is ours.
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's for GM crats, for GM fratz. I'm coming
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: with you too.
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: Let's go.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean no, listen, Steve.
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: Cohen did it and failed.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: That's true.
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: That's a guy that put it to all the chips
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: in and failed.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: He's gonna be the talk for years to come until
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: they get back into playoffs and do some sort of dam.
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: But they also have a weird approach on starting pitchers
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: right now with free agency. Right you're a big money team,
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: and then you're like, I want to dance around starters
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: because I don't believe in the big boys. Problem. That
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: is a problem. That's that's that's a foundational issue issue
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: that they have right now. Right that's coming from their
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: president of Baseball Operations. And you might have to change that.
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: You're going to have to because you're.
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: Gonna spend on everything else. And then you're like, you're
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: gonna take lottery ticket risks right with our pitchers and
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: hopefully that works out.
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: You know, and Peter Lions is not coming back anytime soon.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: So look at the Yankees. So they got Max Freed.
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: The Yanks got Max Freed, and someone came out recently
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: and said the next option for them was Griffin Canning.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, Gryffin Canning had a nice month and change
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: and got hurt with the Mets. Look at the difference there, huge.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: Where are the Yankees without Max Freed this year?
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: It's trouble.
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: Hey, we've got a postgame show. It's the Mariners and
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: Tigers facing off for Games three. We'll see you after
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: that one and we'll talk about what happened. And then
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: after the Yankees match up with the Blue Jays. Derek
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Lewandowski's Pinstripe Territory is the spot. Even if you're a
