FT Postgame Reax: Dodgers win again in Milwaukee for 2-0 series edge · Foul Territory

• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Ft Live postgame show after Game two of the NLCS
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: where the Dodgers take a two to nothing lead and
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: head back home to La. Well, things are lining up
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: for a Dodgers Mariners World Series. Scottie Brown, Arikratz, let's
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: talk and instantly react. Krats. The starting pitcher is so back.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: So back, and it's so bountiful in LA. I mean,
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: they have all the starting pitching. It's not even fair.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: No other teams. Next year they're probably going to go
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: one sixty two and oh mmmm.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: It reminds me of last offseason where the Dodgers put
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: icing on the cake with some bullpen editions that we
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: do not even see in the postseason, like Kirbyates and
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Tanner Scott. But also the weakness for the Dodgers is
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: not that much of a weakness. It's like a little
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: sprinkle of a weakness because you often don't need it.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Let's start with Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Doc Roberts lets him go
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: the difference one day after holding Blake Snell and not
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: having him go in the ninth after one of the
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: more dominant performances in the postseason we've seen in a minute,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: so Yamamoto tops him. A complete game nine inning domination
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: from Yamamoto. He gives up the first pitch over to
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Jackson Churio and then look at the screen. Three hits
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: the entire game. That one run to the first batter
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: on the first pitch. Nothing after that. He walked one,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: he fanned seven. He had it rolling. He gave you
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: just enough in terms of the swing and miss some
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: of the early count attacks from the Brewers early on
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: in the game, just enough, like to sprinkle in a
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: little bit of everything that you'd usually see from Yamamoto
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: over an entire game. He was brilliant, dominant.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: I mean one pitch leadoff homer and then he gave
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: up one walk, especially since Cheerio hit the leadoff homer
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: on a heater. I turned to my son, we were
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: watching a game. I goes, well, he's gonna be able
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: to go He's gonna be able to go far if
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: he can throw his breaking ball, because he's not gonna
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: want to throw his fastball anymore. Credit to Yamamoto, Credit
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: to Will Smith for saying it's okay one swing were good,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: and they weren't just good, they were great. Complete game
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: one run that is like what is it the nineties.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Right, seventies, eighties, nineties, nineties, nineties, nineties postseason game under
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: three hours? Absolutely, Dave Roberts not having to do almost
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: anything besides say okay, you can continue pitching, right, I
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: mean he had to make no decisions. And hey, this
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: is a far cry from what we used to see
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: from the Dodgers. Remember, this team has made it to
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: the postseason I think thirteen consecutive years. But Kraft, it
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: wasn't always like this. They got very cute in the past,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: platoon city, switching pitchers left and right, right, pulling guys
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: early from starts, which it wasn't just them, it was
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: most of Major League Baseball. They're one of the more
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: traditional teams in the sport. And yes, we get it
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: for the non Dodger fans that are watching right now.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: We know they have money and they have resources. Oh
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: and they also have one of the top farm systems
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: in the sport, and that is held down by a
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: salary cap. With a draft and international money you're able
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: to spend. Oops, they're still best in that. So I
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: would just like to say this team is so dominant
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: right now and clicking on all cylinders It's really exactly
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: as they drew things up in March, right, we are
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: going to get through the marathon so that we have
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: ace coming at you in the postseason. And that's what
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: we have right now. Yamamoto gave them a really full,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: dominant sophomore season and that has continued into the postseason,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: aside from the little blip against the Phillies. Kratz Glass now,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: who has had his injury issues, gets healthy at the
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: right time for them, which is what they care about.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Show.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Hey, Tani is in this postseason slumping mostly as a hitter.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: I know he came through with one RBI knock in
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: this one and might not even have to pitch in
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: this series. I mean, I guess you could throw him
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: in Game four, but you don't have to if you
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: don't feel like you want to and you're up three
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: to zero at that point. We'll see, we'll see, right.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you hit on a lot of guys. They're a
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: different guys. And I want to take it back to
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: what you said, like, oh man, this team was built.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: You know, nobody else is able to build or whatever
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: he said. The financial resources. Okay, so nobody could have
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: spent one hundred and fifteen million on Tyler Glass. Now
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: nobody could have spent one hundred and seventy million deferred
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: money on Blake Snell, both available. Mookie Betts got traded
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: over to the Dodgers. Freddie Freeman was a brave it's
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: becoming a destination. Keiky Hernedez came on our show, and
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: I know people will be like, a, who cares about KK? Well,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: you know what, KYK shows up in the playoffs, and
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: if you're a playoff team, you might want to make
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: your destination a place like KEYK talked about La where
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: you go. I don't want to go anywhere else. And
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: is it about winning? Yes, it's about winning. It's about
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: winning for every one of these guys, and there's so
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: many of these guys. Yeah, every team did not have
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: a chance at Show. Hey. Every team clearly did not
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: have a chance at Roki Sasaki. But they've built this team,
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: not just this year or last offseason when they got show. Hey,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: they've built this team and this organization for the last
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: thirteen years. They were like, damn, we screwed up maybe
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: too much platoon. They're not even like tonight. They finally
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: the bats broke out out before this in the last
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: two series, they were hitting one ninety nine as a team.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Max Munsey had his first RBI tonight. Freddie Freeman got
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: his first RBI last night. They are playing. As much
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: as this might sound terrible to other fan bases, they're
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: playing all twenty six men. Ben Roved. Ben Roved was
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: a catcher that got called up in September, that got
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: picked up from an organization to fill in and almost
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: caught back to back no hitters, like this is an
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: organization that brings guys in that fits their mold. Yeah,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: they pay some of them, I get that, but they
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: fits their mold and they could care less about their
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: own success. They want to win. And look at what
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: they're doing again this year.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: By the way, did you mention pahes.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: No? I didn't. I think tonight.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: He had been one for twenty seven this postseason, with
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: no walks and no runs batted in, and he had
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: arguably the biggest knock of the game because it was
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: the go ahead and it was the deciding run driven
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: in by pahes to out RBI doubled a right field corner.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: And suddenly this lineup looks quite scary. I don't want
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: to say suddenly, I mean, obviously they put up runs
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: throughout this postseason so far, but like you mentioned, some
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: of the guys that had been quiet are starting to
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: light up. It's becoming a problem very quickly for Milwaukee.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: They are going to have to win four of their
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: next five games, just like the Toronto Blue Jays are
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: going to have to win four of their next five games,
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: and three of those games are going to be on
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: the road. That doesn't necessarily mean everything. The Dodgers just
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: won two games on the road. The Mariners just won
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: two games on the road in the Championship series. But
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: we will talk a little bit more about what happened
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: in Game two and then spin it forward to Game
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: three to see if Milwaukee has a fighting chance or
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: if the Dodgers are on their way to sweep City.

  Speaker 1: We're back. Thanks for hanging with us, and let's talk
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: about the Dodgers starting rotation ERRA. If you've played at
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: least eight games in a postseason, they are at the
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: two spot all time. Right now, the number is one,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: five four second lowest in history among teams with at
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: least eight playoff games, number one belonging to the nineteen
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: eighty three Orioles at one three to one. And yes,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: we understand they are still postseason games to go, but
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: just to give you some context on where they're at,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: the Brewers' bullpen has been really good throughout the postseason. Crats.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: They were as sharp in this one. But at the
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: same time they're getting used a ton a ton, and
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: they are not the problem. They are the The offense
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: needs to figure things out against number one starters every night.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: I know I ask you this almost every night, but
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: it's like, is this the offense's fault or are they
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: matching up against the top ten starters on the planet
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: and they can't muster up offense?
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: I mean, I tend to when I'm watching these pictures,
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: I tend to see these swings and say it's the pictures,
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: Like these pictures are dominating in the zone. Yamamoto and
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Snell the last two nights have one walk combined. Snell
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: had zero last night, Yamona had one. And when you're
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: doing that and you're still getting ten punchies seven punchies,
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: you're still going eight to nine innings. It means you're
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: getting outs in the zone and your stuff is really
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: just dominant right now, like they are. Their starting rotation
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: is clicking on all cylinders against as lineup that knows
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: how to hit, that knows how to score runs and
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: manufacture things, and they're just not able to do it.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: And it doesn't get any easier. It doesn't get any easier.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: You got a day off and then you face Glass now.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: You hope maybe Glass now can walk a few guys,
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: because he normally gets two or three walks in a game.
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: But right now, if he's watching the other guys, he's like,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: oh wait, they're right, my stuff does play in the zone.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be it's gonna be another tough night.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Where's Miz asks? Al Miz will appear soon? Maybe Game three,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: does he hit?
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Does a miss hit like that? Stuff?
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Like, yeah, hey, game one was close. I will say
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: this Game one was close. The Dodgers had a lot
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: more activity going on, but the Brewers had a chance
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: to win that game. And even Pat Murphy phrased it
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: the same way that the question was asked. They could
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: have stolen in Game one with what was going on late.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: There were two major issues. One, abnery Rebay walked in
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: a run that made it to nothing. Brewers caught up
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: with one run, but not two. In the ninth Bryce
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Terrang almost hit by a pitch instinct pulls them back.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: We talked a lot about that on Foul Territory during
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: the day. And then Terrang chases a fastball high level.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: That was the game, but they had a chance. Bases
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: were loaded there. That was your chance to knock the
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Dodgers and make this a one to one. Even if
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Yamamoto dominated, and it's crazy to think that Blake Snell
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: dominated like that and the Brewers were in this spot.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: This is a good team, but we talked about them
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: in the regular season as a contact team, a patient team,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: and a team that ranked pretty far down there in
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: terms of pop Do you think that the Dodgers' attack
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: plan is throw strikes. Our stuff is better and we
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: don't feel like there are too many power threats, so
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: let's just be economical as hell and show off some
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: of the best stuff in our game.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: I think their plan is a very old school approach.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: When I hit when I got to triple A, the
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: pitching coach was like, look, we can look at the lineup.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: We can say, just based on stats, the guys that
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: you can't walk, and then based on stats, we're gonna
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: then look at the guys who you can't just get throw,
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: get me over pitches. He's like, and I haven't even
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: seen any of them swing. If you don't drive the
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: ball in triple A in the big leagues, good pitchers,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: which the Dodgers' pitching staff starting rotation is great, not good,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: they're great, can just attack you with fastballs. Because majority
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: of the time you're not going to hit the ball
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: out of the ballpark. You have to put the fear
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: of the home run in the pitching staff to then
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: scare them out of the zone. Now we say all
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: that to say, look what happens to the teams that
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: strike out too much? They look listless. The Phillies have
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: to make an adjustment in the postseason. We're seeing so
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: many different variations of lineups in this postseason that the
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: reality is, whatever you're doing, you have to win the ballgame.
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: The Phillies, against this vaunted starting rotation, had leads in
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: three games against their starting rotation. They lost all three
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: of those games. They were losing in one of those
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: games to their starting rotation, they won that game. This
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: is the razor thin line that you run in the postseason.
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: And when you have a team as deep as the Dodgers,
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: a team that plays so well together and has team
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: at bats, the lineup at some point seems to pick
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: you up and the starting rotation is doing it exactly opposite.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: This time last year, we were going, man, how did
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: they survive that Padre series? Ah? Man, they could have
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: been the team that was in it. But and yet
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: it's the Dodgers that are always coming out on top
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: because they just have that slight edge. Yeah.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not going to speak for Dodger fans here.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: I know there are plenty watching our show right now,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: and also after our show, you can check out Dodgers' territory.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: They're running live too. I imagine that Dodger fans felt
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: a lot more nervous last year than they did this year.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: There hasn't been a lot of panic, right. I mean,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: they breezed through the Reds, they took down the Phillies
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: in some really exciting games, but we didn't get to
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: a game five. And right now they're really in command
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: with a two zero Series lead. It felt like maybe
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: they could have taken a breath in the World Series
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: last year because the National League was so much more
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: dominant and well rounded, so it was a gauntlet to
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: get through the National League, and then the Yankees, in
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: my mind, were not as good as several teams that
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: they ran into before that. But this time around, you
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: might almost have the opposite equation running. You might have
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: it where the Dodgers don't feel like they were too
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: tested in the National League side, but then they run
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: into a Mariners team that's feeling good and can match
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: up against them. Their starters can match up against them.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Their bullpen right now, traditional bullpen relievers, right traditional relief
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: pitchers are better than what the Dodgers are offering. They've
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: got a hotter bullpen and lineup wise, I think it's
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: pretty close, and the identity of both offenses is pretty close.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: It's a less battle tested Mariners group. But it's just
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: something to think about as we look forward here. If
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: you're a Dodger fan, you're rooting hard right now for Toronto,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: aren't you? Make this a little bit of a fight?
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Put Seattle in a tough spot, although they played fifteen
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: innings in a game five, and it didn't phase that
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: much when they headed over to Toronto. So I think
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: we're heading into what could be a heavyweight matchup and
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: the two teams that deserve to be there.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: I think I disagree with you as the lineup. I
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: think the Dodgers lineup is much better. You know, you're
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: you're not running out, You're you know, especially facing if
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: you're talking about it looking ahead, because this is definitely
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: way ahead. Facing the Mariners. They're not making any left
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: hand left hand starters are not making any starts. So
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: to me, you have your best starting rotation, you have
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: your best starting lineup out there against righty's. I think
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers are deeper, but that's why you play these games,
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: and this is why I would encourage every organization to
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: push all in. Some will say it's not fair. Look
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: what the Dodgers do. They've been in every game besides
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: the Reds. They've been in every game with the Dodgers.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: And if you think the Dodgers are the if you're
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: out there and you think that the Dodgers are the
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: favorite and you're like, oh man, you can't have you
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: have no chance of beating them. I've had a chance
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: every single night except for the Reds and maybe tonight,
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: I would say you didn't have a chance, and I
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: would stop looking at it as starting rotation and bullpen,
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: and I would look at it as which team can
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: get nine outs first? Because the Mariners aren't going to go.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Dan Wilson has shown he's not going to allow his
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: starters to go. John Schneider has shown he's not gonna
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: allow his starters to go. Brewers don't have that kind
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: of start length. The Dodgers don't have that kind of bullpen.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: So it's really about how do you get nine innings
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: of outs, not nine outs, nine innings of outs twenty
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: seven outs.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: I think it's pretty obvious how the roadmap can look
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: for the Dodgers to either win this an LCS or
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: even sweep. What does the roadmap look like for the crew?
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, obviously I don't. Do you call it an
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: approach change? Do you call it some bad command outings
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: from the Dodgers? Do you call it riding pitchers up
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: in terms of pitch count to get to the bullpen
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: and cracking that open. The Brewers have had a lot
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: of comeback wins this year, you know, it's a pesky offense,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: but it's not intimidating for LA Right now, how does
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: it turn around?
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: If I mean you go into the glass Now game,
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: he's not thrown strikes. You take advantage of that. He
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: walks a few guys, that's an automatic double. They're gonna
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: take advantage of the opportunity that maybe glass Now is unhittable,
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: but he's not unscorable against. Like you can get some
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: runs if they play their game. I'll I'll triple down,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: quadruple down on it. Like you have to play your game.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: And you can't say we're going to change our approach
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: other than understand who the next starter is, Understand what
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: show Hay is going to do to you. Understand that
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: glass Now's m has been elite dominating stuff. But you
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: got to bring him in the zone. And it's gonna
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: be tough because you're like, well, ninety nine is cutting
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: at the top of the zone. I can't tell if
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: that's gonna be going back down into the zone because
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: now he added the slider, that curveball. I gotta see
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: it at my eyes to be able to swing at it.
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Middle middle, So that means middle middle. I gotta take it,
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: but I got to recognize it, and you work that
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: way where you could go like a six inning outing
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: with Glass now and now you're like, okay, we have
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: about two innings where we can really add on here,
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: but they got to get guys on and Glass now
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: can't hold runners, so that could be that could be
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: a path. Now all of a sudden, it's two to one.
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: Now you figure out how to win one of the
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: next two games. Show hey, pitches, he gets tired, maybe
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: his bat doesn't come around. Because the Dodgers lineup really
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: isn't hitting very well tonight. They did. Can you keep
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: them down? That's the only way they do it?
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: Okay, it would be a nightmare for Dodger fans. Doesn't
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: sound like it's very lightly, but we've seen two oh comebacks.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: Three to zero comebacks are tough. They exist, but they're
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: very tough. Two oh comebacks are a thing for me.
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: It's hard to see them when you look at how
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: teams are playing. Right and we've been surprised before because
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: things can turn in our sport. There's a lot of
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: unpredictable moments in baseball, but look the way these teams
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: match up. It's just hard to see the Dodgers with
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: the guys they're throwing out there, falling in four out
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: of five. Coming up, let's finish with this series. More
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: likely to take a turn ALCS or NLCS.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: I mean, I feel like it has to be the Alcs.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Even though the pitching matchup there doesn't look great for
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: the Blue Jays, it's very power. There's a lot of parallels.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: The Mariners are in control, they're starting rotation, the pitching
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: matchup is in their favor. The Dodgers are in control,
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: starting rotation in their favor in the next two games.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: I just I have a hard time believing that the
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: that the that the Brewers can come back from this
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: in LA up against the pitchers that they have to face.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to say the Mariners have a better
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: chance of blowing this lead.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: Still small chance though, Yeah, I'm with you and I
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: agree Mariners. But it's hard to see it on either
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: side right now. But I would definitely go Mariners. I
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: think the Blue Jays offense is dynamic, not that the
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Brewers isn't, but I mean, I think the Dodgers pitching
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: right now just has the answer against Milwaukee. It's a
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: more battle tested crew too. Most of those Mariners players
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: have never been in a spot like this. It doesn't
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: necessarily matter, but I'll go with that pick as well. Okay,
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: here's the Deal Bowl territory. Every day one to three Eastern,
• 22:58
