Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Big first out to get for Gasser to settle him
- 0:02Speaker 1: down I'm sure with a little adrenaline pumping before this
- 0:05Speaker 1: huge start the biggest of his career. Hard hit ball
- 0:08Speaker 1: back up the middle and Mitchell comes through to give
- 0:11Speaker 1: Milwaukee the lead.
- 0:12Speaker 2: In game four.
- 0:13Speaker 1: His first RBI of the.
- 0:14Speaker 2: Series and it's one to nothing Brewers. How huge is
- 0:17Speaker 2: that stolen base now?
- 0:19Speaker 1: Yeah and now the Brewers are up one nothing and
- 0:21Speaker 1: that just keeps amplifying.
- 0:23Speaker 2: The pressure on these Padres.
- 0:24Speaker 1: Ashby weaves and misses at a breaking ball. Nasty stuff
- 0:28Speaker 1: from Gasser. Tatis hits one on the ground towards Pratt
- 0:31Speaker 1: who dives and snares it, stands and throws.
- 0:34Speaker 2: To get Tatis.
- 0:35Speaker 1: It's been a roller coaster ride, but the peaks have
- 0:39Speaker 1: been very impressive for Pratt on defense.
- 0:41Speaker 2: In this set.
- 0:42Speaker 1: 11 outs left for Milwaukee to advance to the league
- 0:46Speaker 1: championship series for a second straight year.
- 0:49Speaker 2: Back to Ashby.
- 0:51Speaker 1: As easy as one, four, three, double play. And the
- 0:54Speaker 1: nephew of the longtime Padre with two excellent innings for
- 0:59Speaker 1: this excellent Milwaukee Penn. Bogarts first pitch, Pratt backhand. His
- 1:04Speaker 1: counterpart slings it in time for the first down.
- 1:07Speaker 3: That was a cannon.
- 1:08Speaker 2: That was a good play right there. You want to
- 1:10Speaker 2: know how you can tell if a guy's a big
- 1:12Speaker 2: league shortstop?
- 1:13Speaker 4: This play and this throw.
- 1:14Speaker 2: He gets it, sets his feet, and just. That's missile.
- 1:19Speaker 1: Bowen goes.
- 1:19Speaker 5: Pulled.
- 1:20Speaker 2: Strike three. Got him. Takes a swing. Sends it out
- 1:25Speaker 2: to center. Mitchell back. That was the Adam Jones WBC.
- 1:39Speaker 2: Remember that one? That's almost the same spot.
- 1:44Speaker 1: He crushed one in the WBC for the Dominican Republic
- 1:48Speaker 1: and Adam Jones took a homer away. This time it's
- 1:51Speaker 1: Mitchell in the 2026 playoffs. Oh my goodness.
- 1:55Speaker 2: That's a homer. Seven's not. Garrett Mitchell said, no, sir!
- 2:01Speaker 1: Tough spot. Terrain is there as Powers hit the deck,
- 2:06Speaker 1: and Terrain makes the catch in foul territory. Jacob Mizorowski
- 2:11Speaker 1: has picked up a baseball just in case.
- 2:14Speaker 2: He struck him out!
- 2:17Speaker 1: And baseball's best team takes its step.
- 2:20Speaker 2: To the Final Four.
- 2:22Speaker 1: The Milwaukee Brewers are right back in the National League
- 2:25Speaker 1: Championship Series. They made the plays and they made the
- 2:30Speaker 1: pitches when it mattered most.
- 2:33Speaker 2: Trevor McGill slams the door.
- 2:35Speaker 1: And the 103 win brewers are headed back to the
- 2:40Speaker 1: National League Championship Series where they will play for the
- 2:43Speaker 1: pennant against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
- 2:51Speaker 3: Oh, let's celebrate. It's one of those 10% days. Doesn't
- 2:57Speaker 3: suck to be a fan today. It's actually pretty sweet.
- 3:00Speaker 3: Let's enjoy it. Welcome into the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin,
- 3:04Speaker 3: 920 Milwaukee, 1070 Madison, everywhere on the iHeart app, streaming
- 3:07Speaker 3: live on Facebook X and YouTube. Drew Olson, Bill Schmid,
- 3:11Speaker 3: Armin Sarian, Brewers. Moving on to the National League Championship Series.
- 3:16Speaker 3: We've got time to catch our breath and get ready. For, oh,
- 3:21Speaker 3: you know, this tiny little game on Sunday evening with
- 3:23Speaker 3: Miz versus Scooble. Let's get it. Can the Brewers get retribution?
- 3:28Speaker 3: Can they break through and continue the joy ride that
- 3:31Speaker 3: has been the 2026 season? Welcome in, everybody. Five o'clock lovers.
- 3:36Speaker 3: Everybody stay up till the end of the game.
- 3:39Speaker 6: Um, if you count the, what I was trying to
- 3:41Speaker 6: make a minute and a half interval naps in between
- 3:44Speaker 6: the commercial breaks, uh, staying up until the end of
- 3:47Speaker 6: the game, then yes. And a little bit more post
- 3:50Speaker 6: game than I care to admit, but yeah, it was
- 3:53Speaker 6: right around the sixth inning where I realized drew. I'm like,
- 3:55Speaker 6: It's just, this is going to be one of those times.
- 3:58Speaker 6: So I'm just going to try to steal as many
- 4:00Speaker 6: minutes as possible.
- 4:01Speaker 5: Yes.
- 4:02Speaker 2: And get into the rehab.
- 4:03Speaker 6: Like Caleb Williams was right away. I'm getting into the
- 4:06Speaker 6: rehab right away and celebrate. We can and celebrate with
- 4:10Speaker 6: cool in the gang.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Indeed. Nothing. Yes, sir.
- 4:12Speaker 3: Yes, sir.
- 4:12Speaker 2: Sleep was kind of an abstract notion. I was down.
- 4:16Speaker 5: I was sleeping like, and then waking up and then
- 4:19Speaker 5: sleeping and waking up. Like as my phone kept buzzing
- 4:23Speaker 5: from all the group texts I had and all the
- 4:25Speaker 5: You know, because I have it on silent, but it's
- 4:26Speaker 5: still on vibrate because I can't totally unplug. And then
- 4:29Speaker 5: it was finally I was up to confirming what I
- 4:33Speaker 5: thought was true based on all the evidence I had
- 4:36Speaker 5: that we had won.
- 4:37Speaker 2: And then I've just been up since then because I,
- 4:39Speaker 2: you know, I had to be involved in everything. You're
- 4:41Speaker 2: popping away. You're right.
- 4:43Speaker 3: You're drifting off like. My wife at one point, she
- 4:46Speaker 3: looked at me like 2.15, 2.30. Are you checking your
- 4:49Speaker 3: phone to see if the Brewers won? Like, no, I
- 4:50Speaker 3: know they won. I'm just checking.
- 4:52Speaker 2: I'm just scanning some of the other stuff now.
- 4:54Speaker 3: I'm just consuming the other stuff because I just like,
- 4:58Speaker 3: you know, like you said, sleeping in 10 minute, you know.
- 5:01Speaker 3: 10 minute blocks.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Deep breath. Boom. How can you sleep? I just was glorious.
- 5:07Speaker 5: I could have slept if I was like, relax, but
- 5:10Speaker 5: I can't relax in that situation.
- 5:12Speaker 2: Knowing we're in the situation. It's one, nothing. So one, one,
- 5:15Speaker 2: I got to check my phone.
- 5:16Speaker 5: Okay.
- 5:16Speaker 2: Now I'm going to sleep.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 5:17Speaker 2: Right. Like it ain't going to happen. Like I did
- 5:19Speaker 2: find myself dozing off at points. Cause I'm like, Oh,
- 5:21Speaker 2: an inning passed, you know?
- 5:23Speaker 5: So it was just too much excitement, too much excitement
- 5:26Speaker 5: to go get it done in San Diego in game four.
- 5:29Speaker 3: We're right back to where we were last year. Brewers-Dodgers
- 5:32Speaker 3: for the right to go to the World Series. And
- 5:34Speaker 3: it opens in Milwaukee.
- 5:37Speaker 2: And, you know. Third time's a charm. And now we
- 5:40Speaker 2: got something for them, I think. Yeah, we got something
- 5:42Speaker 2: for them. We got something for them, I hope.
- 5:44Speaker 3: I mean, the Padres had something for the Brewers. These
- 5:46Speaker 3: games were razor-thin close. And I had an overarching thought
- 5:51Speaker 3: last evening, as the moment we'll all remember.
- 5:54Speaker 2: From this game.
- 5:55Speaker 3: KD's foot was on the line, and Manny Machado's ball
- 5:58Speaker 3: was two feet too short.
- 5:59Speaker 6: Oh, my goodness. That call right there is perfect. Oh,
- 6:04Speaker 6: my God, it's a homer, but it wasn't. Yeah, Adam Wainwright,
- 6:07Speaker 6: the pitcher.
- 6:07Speaker 2: No, it wasn't. Didn't go out. He caught it. Didn't
- 6:09Speaker 2: go out. Sorry. I have a deeper question. Maybe we'll
- 6:13Speaker 2: get to.
- 6:13Speaker 5: But if he hadn't caught that, which, you know, he
- 6:16Speaker 5: had a beat on it, so I was like, I
- 6:18Speaker 5: think he'll get it.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Would it have been fan interference? But we'll get to
- 6:21Speaker 2: that maybe more.
- 6:21Speaker 5: Well, maybe.
- 6:22Speaker 2: Because they touched the glove. They were all over it.
- 6:25Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 6:25Speaker 3: But it was that's one of those moments, man. Just
- 6:28Speaker 3: game of inches. And does anybody think if Manny Machado,
- 6:34Speaker 3: if that ball goes out and they tie the game there.
- 6:37Speaker 2: We're playing game five tomorrow night, right? Don't you think?
- 6:40Speaker 3: I mean, you sure feel like that. I mean, anything
- 6:43Speaker 3: can happen and we'll never know. It sure would have seemed.
- 6:46Speaker 6: Like, Oh boy, because it's hard to come back from
- 6:50Speaker 6: those swings and two in one game is a damn
- 6:53Speaker 6: near impossible to be able to withstand and drew the
- 6:57Speaker 6: way that they had gotten it through. I the second
- 7:01Speaker 6: time through for Tatis for Gasser, I was wondering how
- 7:05Speaker 6: much more you're going to ask of him. And then
- 7:07Speaker 6: they just continue to roll it because big game Bob
- 7:10Speaker 6: was able to shove you for four and then hand
- 7:12Speaker 6: it off to Ashby, which apparently is just that's just
- 7:16Speaker 6: the game plan. Poor Chad Patrick is sitting on the
- 7:18Speaker 6: bullpens and I'm waiting and I'm getting it. I'm ready
- 7:21Speaker 6: to get hot. Instead, they didn't need them. And I
- 7:25Speaker 6: wondered what and when they may be. make the move,
- 7:31Speaker 6: but they give up one hit after the Tatis Homer
- 7:36Speaker 6: would have been another one.
- 7:37Speaker 2: I'm with you.
- 7:38Speaker 6: You absolutely could have played it too. Right after you
- 7:41Speaker 6: could have very much responded. I think the team has
- 7:44Speaker 6: given you a lot of confidence and to believe that
- 7:46Speaker 6: they would, but I also would have made a lot
- 7:48Speaker 6: of plans coming up for Friday night because I think
- 7:50Speaker 6: we would have had one.
- 7:51Speaker 2: If that wasn't that gets over the glove.
- 7:52Speaker 5: I just think it's reasonable to think that, you know,
- 7:54Speaker 5: when you tie a game at home like that in
- 7:56Speaker 5: that fashion and that you're probably in a better position
- 8:00Speaker 5: to go ahead and win that game. Like you said,
- 8:01Speaker 5: we'll never know. But yeah, that's reasonable to think. I
- 8:04Speaker 5: think we all would have felt that way. But the
- 8:06Speaker 5: Brewers did put pressure on most of the night offense.
- 8:08Speaker 3: It's going to be, you know, this year feels different.
- 8:11Speaker 3: And yeah, it's the same teams, the same home field advantage,
- 8:14Speaker 3: same format. However, the Brewers had to play the Friday night.
- 8:20Speaker 3: They had to play the game five. And meanwhile, the
- 8:23Speaker 3: Dodgers were all rested, had their pitching all lined up
- 8:25Speaker 3: and everything. And now, Everybody's rested the same. Everybody's, you know,
- 8:29Speaker 3: going to be on the same even field. And you're
- 8:31Speaker 3: going to get Scooble and Snell against Miz and Henderson.
- 8:35Speaker 2: Let's go.
- 8:35Speaker 6: Yeah, and you're going to get your guys at home.
- 8:38Speaker 6: And again, this is why as much as the 2-3-2
- 8:42Speaker 6: format went down 0-2 last year, I was able to
- 8:45Speaker 6: convince myself being the road team is actually the better way.
- 8:48Speaker 6: This is why, as Murph said, this is why you
- 8:51Speaker 6: struggled in the regular season to win the home field,
- 8:54Speaker 6: to get four chances at home. Because whatever the super
- 8:57Speaker 6: special stat that they wanted to continue to hammer home
- 9:00Speaker 6: last night of now seven and twenty three on the
- 9:03Speaker 6: road in the playoffs.
- 9:04Speaker 2: Show me the team that's got a winning playoff record
- 9:06Speaker 2: on the road. Yes, probably. I'm sorry.
- 9:08Speaker 6: I don't know that there's a whole lot of any
- 9:10Speaker 6: that are that are going to be great on the road.
- 9:13Speaker 6: But this is why you end up doing it.
- 9:16Speaker 3: The bar is set pretty low beginning on Sunday night
- 9:19Speaker 3: last year in the four games. The Brewers lost getting
- 9:21Speaker 3: swept by the Dodgers.
- 9:22Speaker 2: They led.
- 9:23Speaker 3: At the end of one inning in four games. It's
- 9:26Speaker 3: going to be better this time around, I feel it.
- 9:28Speaker 2: Yeah, and I have a good feeling about it.
- 9:30Speaker 6: I think game one's going to be better, most importantly,
- 9:32Speaker 6: because I think we're going to get more action instead
- 9:34Speaker 6: of just the ninth inning.
- 9:35Speaker 3: You've got a rested bullpen, you've got a rested starting staff,
- 9:38Speaker 3: and both teams pretty much steamrolled. I mean, close games, sure,
- 9:42Speaker 3: but the Brewers gave up a 181 average to the Padres.
- 9:48Speaker 3: They gave up two homers and 10 runs.
- 9:50Speaker 5: Speaker 1 and that wasn't their best defensive effort.
- 9:54Speaker 6: And they weren't playing from a deep, you know, from plays,
- 9:57Speaker 6: but also errors.
- 9:58Speaker 3: The thing is the Dodgers gave up a 145 average,
- 10:01Speaker 3: two homers, and eight runs in four games. So this
- 10:03Speaker 3: pitching is at a premium. Yeah, the Brewers did. They
- 10:07Speaker 3: made a lot of mistakes that were shocking, but they
- 10:11Speaker 3: overcame them. Yeah, the imperfections is actually what makes it so.
- 10:15Speaker 5: you know thrilling and and so you know and interesting
- 10:18Speaker 5: i mean this time of year these things are going
- 10:20Speaker 5: to happen you have good on good everyone's putting pressure
- 10:22Speaker 5: on each other so uh sometimes it does burst the
- 10:25Speaker 5: pipe but if you can overcome them and i i
- 10:27Speaker 5: think also with the offense granted not not scoring necessarily
- 10:30Speaker 5: a lot of runs crooked numbers enough to win but
- 10:33Speaker 5: not a lot but Constant pressure on the Padres. Hits, walks,
- 10:38Speaker 5: another double-digit hit night for the Brewers. Yes, no homers,
- 10:41Speaker 5: but they did get a couple extra base hits. They
- 10:44Speaker 5: got the job done in that sense. I think the
- 10:46Speaker 5: Brewers have confidence that they're going to be able to
- 10:48Speaker 5: put rallies together a lot of innings. Whether or not
- 10:50Speaker 5: they score is going to be the next question, but
- 10:52Speaker 5: hopefully that confidence and momentum goes into the next series,
- 10:56Speaker 5: which you know what Scooble can do. And I understand
- 10:59Speaker 5: what Snell did, you know, but they Yamamoto is probably
- 11:02Speaker 5: their best.
- 11:02Speaker 2: Pitcher right now.
- 11:03Speaker 5: And pretty much so they're going to, it's obviously going
- 11:06Speaker 5: to be, if you're going to make this, if you're
- 11:08Speaker 5: going to make this happen, you have to go through
- 11:09Speaker 5: the wall and the most toughest of circumstances.
- 11:12Speaker 2: But it will be rewarding when we do it. Indeed. Indeed.
- 11:15Speaker 3: Hit us up, 877-794-1973, nicolaylaw.com, talk and text. I'm going
- 11:20Speaker 3: to be basking in the glow. This is the first
- 11:22Speaker 3: half of our doubleheader on Thursday.
- 11:24Speaker 2: Come on now. Our last doubleheader on Thursday.
- 11:27Speaker 3: If you missed the memo, it's our last week as
- 11:30Speaker 3: a morning program for you. The 5 o'clock club will
- 11:33Speaker 3: shutter its doors until, well, we'll see. But 5 o'clock
- 11:38Speaker 3: club will no longer exist on Monday when we move
- 11:40Speaker 3: from 2 to 5. But tonight will be a Pottawatomie
- 11:43Speaker 3: sportsbook in the annex. We'll be having a great time
- 11:46Speaker 3: getting ready for Buccaneers Cowboys.
- 11:49Speaker 6: Okay, I'm glad you knew it. I was actually just
- 11:51Speaker 6: going to look at it because, Drew, I'm glad that
- 11:53Speaker 6: we're able now just to clear the deck.
- 11:56Speaker 2: For the next couple of days. Baseball's on hold. Baseball
- 11:58Speaker 2: on hold.
- 11:59Speaker 3: Well, I mean, baseball, our baseball on hold.
- 12:01Speaker 2: Our baseball on hold. But, you know, the excitement will build.
- 12:04Speaker 6: But now there's a little bit of runway where we
- 12:06Speaker 6: can give some just dessert and the credit and the
- 12:09Speaker 6: do that Packers and Bears deserve. And tonight we will
- 12:12Speaker 6: talk a lot about the oldest rivalry in matchup 214
- 12:15Speaker 6: between the two teams. But I'm excited for always to
- 12:20Speaker 6: be at Pottawatomie. But most importantly, excited to now be
- 12:23Speaker 6: able to get a first little look And what the
- 12:25Speaker 6: series lines are looking like.
- 12:26Speaker 2: There you go. Brewers and Dodgers. That place is.
- 12:30Speaker 6: Going to be the spot on Sunday for NFL Sunday
- 12:34Speaker 6: in the sports book.
- 12:35Speaker 2: Sublime.
- 12:36Speaker 6: A Brewers postseason game taking the shuttle from Pottawatomie sports book.
- 12:40Speaker 2: Hard to beat them two together in one. That's a
- 12:43Speaker 2: Sunday that you're going to remember. And I checked that, too.
- 12:45Speaker 5: There's no serious market posted yet, but I'm assuming by
- 12:47Speaker 5: tonight the left side.
- 12:47Speaker 3: You got Cowboys, Buccaneers tonight, but you also got White Sox,
- 12:51Speaker 3: Guardians in an elimination game. Again, take two as the
- 12:54Speaker 3: White Sox try to close things out and celebrate at
- 12:56Speaker 3: home for the first time in 120 years. That side
- 12:58Speaker 3: of the bracket, Yankees vanquished. Dodgers, Brewers, if you get
- 13:03Speaker 3: through this, you're either going to face Cleveland, the White Sox,
- 13:08Speaker 3: or the Rays. Bring it.
- 13:10Speaker 6: Yeah, which I mean, again, it seems could be the Brewers,
- 13:13Speaker 6: but very much so. And the Rays are probably the
- 13:16Speaker 6: team that doesn't get nearly enough credit for as good
- 13:18Speaker 6: as they were throughout the year because people just wanted
- 13:21Speaker 6: to know they're very Brewers like very Brewers like, but
- 13:23Speaker 6: the Brewers would be a little look ahead here. They'd
- 13:28Speaker 6: be a favorite in any series. They play other than
- 13:30Speaker 6: the one against the Dodgers, right? So this is this
- 13:33Speaker 6: is what you earn. This is why you do it.
- 13:35Speaker 6: And the Scooble matchup to start game one, the it
- 13:40Speaker 6: just writes itself on the narrative. So I would have
- 13:42Speaker 6: almost liked it even better if you would have pitched
- 13:44Speaker 6: game to just head to head against Henderson, just for
- 13:47Speaker 6: the story.
- 13:48Speaker 3: We saw that in LA, right? But hard to Google
- 13:50Speaker 3: and Henderson went against each other, didn't they?
- 13:52Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 13:52Speaker 5: Right. What?
- 13:53Speaker 2: Like two or three weeks after the, after the deadline
- 13:55Speaker 2: it was in the wild.
- 13:56Speaker 6: So they write themselves and to now get your third
- 14:00Speaker 6: crack at it in 2018, because we're going to clamp
- 14:02Speaker 6: them all together. You get an opportunity to, to run
- 14:06Speaker 6: through one more time. That group is as good as advertised.
- 14:10Speaker 6: Murph mentioned it last night. I know we're going to
- 14:12Speaker 6: hear a ton of the audio today that Hunter grabbed. Yeah,
- 14:16Speaker 6: for sure. All-star team at every position. But teams win.
- 14:21Speaker 6: Teams win. And that was a team victory last night,
- 14:23Speaker 6: especially when your bullpen is able to roll that well.
- 14:26Speaker 2: No question.
- 14:27Speaker 5: Ashby probably, it might be his magnum opus. I mean,
- 14:30Speaker 5: that was probably the best performance of all.
- 14:32Speaker 2: Of his career. I hope he'll have more.
- 14:34Speaker 5: But to come through, to perform the way he did
- 14:36Speaker 5: with three innings in the heart of that team, the
- 14:38Speaker 5: heart of that order, in the biggest moments, the biggest game,
- 14:40Speaker 5: that was awesome.
- 14:42Speaker 3: See, that's the thing, though. Baseball, every moment is big.
- 14:44Speaker 3: If Bobby Gasser doesn't get out of that first inning
- 14:46Speaker 3: jam with the bases loaded, that game goes a different way,
- 14:49Speaker 3: and we're probably thinking about Friday night. And we talked about, okay,
- 14:54Speaker 3: Cheerios at-bat is one that people are going to remember
- 14:56Speaker 3: for the rest of their born days. They're going to
- 14:59Speaker 3: remember that at-bat Sunday. That Churio battling Mason Miller. Well,
- 15:04Speaker 3: in the third inning last night, Sal Freelick pulled a
- 15:06Speaker 3: full-on Cirillo. And I need to text the icon today.
- 15:10Speaker 5: I love this.
- 15:10Speaker 2: Because he's down.
- 15:12Speaker 3: 0-2 against Walker Bueller. And it's like, oh, well, nothing's
- 15:15Speaker 3: happened in this inning. Fouls off three pitches. Takes three balls.
- 15:20Speaker 3: Gets an infield hit. Steals second and scores the first run.
- 15:24Speaker 3: What's more Brewers than that? And that at bat. It
- 15:27Speaker 3: ends up setting the tone and giving you the lead
- 15:29Speaker 3: and giving you a cushion in an elimination game when
- 15:31Speaker 3: you're trying to step on their necks. That at-bat is huge,
- 15:34Speaker 3: and that at-bat is what the Brewers do.
- 15:37Speaker 2: And it's what he does. He's a fighter. You know,
- 15:39Speaker 2: I get out of the man.
- 15:42Speaker 3: He was hurt a lot of this year. He watched
- 15:44Speaker 3: Laura take his spot. He didn't bitch and moan.
- 15:46Speaker 2: He just sat there.
- 15:46Speaker 3: And then Murph's like, well, we're going, you know, you're,
- 15:48Speaker 3: you're in there. He's been in the middle of everything
- 15:50Speaker 3: they've done this, this season.
- 15:53Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 15:53Speaker 6: You look at the numbers that he had in the series.
- 15:55Speaker 6: He was one of their most consistent guys and most
- 15:56Speaker 6: consistent at bats.
- 15:57Speaker 1: True.
- 15:57Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 15:58Speaker 3: And then the guys you want to bury, you know,
- 16:00Speaker 3: Mitchell and Bowers, like, how's he playing? These guys got
- 16:02Speaker 3: to get rid of them. I got to play Lara.
- 16:03Speaker 3: You got to get here and get Ron in there.
- 16:05Speaker 6: So the favor and go look at yesterday's lineup tweet
- 16:07Speaker 6: that the, the Brewers put out.
- 16:09Speaker 2: Oh my God.
- 16:09Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 16:09Speaker 2: Freezing cold takes are us.
- 16:11Speaker 5: It's just so poetic though, because it's a good reminder.
- 16:14Speaker 2: It's like, we don't know what's going to happen. I
- 16:16Speaker 2: get that all the time.
- 16:17Speaker 3: Like the, the, you know, why are they conceding the game?
- 16:20Speaker 2: Like you see it all the.
- 16:21Speaker 3: Time on the Sunday lineups or the, the getaway day,
- 16:24Speaker 3: the Wednesday line went, When Sanchez is playing people, I
- 16:27Speaker 3: just that's always.
- 16:29Speaker 2: Cracked me up.
- 16:30Speaker 6: The baseball one, though, I think was it Bobby Cox
- 16:33Speaker 6: or Gar told Drew that you've used to win when
- 16:35Speaker 6: you are ready to send a guy down when you're
- 16:38Speaker 6: ready to be done with somebody. Never want to look
- 16:40Speaker 6: at him again. Give another 10 days. And for for Murph,
- 16:44Speaker 6: as he mentioned, him and Mitchell sit down and he's like,
- 16:46Speaker 6: I got something different for him today.
- 16:48Speaker 2: I got a different playing was OK, bro. Sounds good.
- 16:51Speaker 2: You're going in there. You're playing. You're playing.
- 16:53Speaker 6: So I'm glad you got a plan because we're going
- 16:56Speaker 6: with you again.
- 16:57Speaker 3: Does anybody else catch that ball at the wall? The
- 16:59Speaker 3: jump he got and the way he got back there?
- 17:02Speaker 3: I mean, Lara might, but Churio has been playing left
- 17:05Speaker 3: a lot.
- 17:05Speaker 2: I don't know, man. Well, and I don't. But not
- 17:08Speaker 2: as tall as Garrett, right?
- 17:09Speaker 6: I would say it would be a question mark because
- 17:11Speaker 6: I don't know that Lara is able to get the
- 17:13Speaker 6: and one.
- 17:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 17:14Speaker 6: I mean, like, I don't know that he's able to
- 17:15Speaker 6: go through the contact.
- 17:16Speaker 2: That's true. In the land of the Giants.
- 17:18Speaker 6: I didn't know that he was going to have to
- 17:19Speaker 6: go in through Wembin Yama to be able to make
- 17:21Speaker 6: the catch. He's got the Spider-Man. He's wiry, but.
- 17:26Speaker 3: I don't know if.
- 17:27Speaker 6: That was going to, I didn't know if that tweet
- 17:28Speaker 6: was going to play last night. Cause again, I'm bleary
- 17:31Speaker 6: eyed in the midst of it.
- 17:32Speaker 5: I want it.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Well, I didn't know.
- 17:33Speaker 6: Cause like I deleted it. I, or I didn't delete it.
- 17:35Speaker 6: I discarded it. I was like typing something out. I
- 17:37Speaker 6: wanted to say, my man gets an and one, like,
- 17:40Speaker 6: are we going to get a free throw on this
- 17:41Speaker 6: with the contact that Mitchell has.
- 17:43Speaker 2: As they're clearly hitting his glove? One of the biggest
- 17:46Speaker 2: plays of the year.
- 17:47Speaker 3: Backdrop of at the same time, like it's almost like
- 17:50Speaker 3: ball hits the roof in Milwaukee ball hits the roof
- 17:52Speaker 3: in Tampa. Volpe home run, not a Homer Mitchell, not
- 17:56Speaker 3: a Homer.
- 17:57Speaker 2: Oh boy.
- 17:58Speaker 3: Twice in a night, man. It was that picture of
- 18:01Speaker 3: Mitchell making that catch.
- 18:02Speaker 2: I mean, that's a.
- 18:03Speaker 3: Low fence and everything, but you're in the, you're among
- 18:06Speaker 3: the unwashed out there.
- 18:07Speaker 2: That's art. That's almost like they were hanging in the loop.
- 18:11Speaker 3: And that is how close the Padres came to, you know,
- 18:14Speaker 3: winning that game, forcing a game five, and then it's
- 18:16Speaker 3: take your chances. So Brewers are rolling on. We're off
- 18:19Speaker 3: and running. Hunter's going to join us on his way back.
- 18:21Speaker 3: I'm sure he's bleary-eyed and has no sleep and probably
- 18:24Speaker 3: smells of champagne.
- 18:25Speaker 2: He left the park two hours ago. He texted me.
- 18:27Speaker 2: He left the park two hours ago.
- 18:28Speaker 3: By the way, the Brewers, man, everything they do, the
- 18:30Speaker 3: little details, the clubbies, Dan Larea, Jason Schager, Tony Migliaccio,
- 18:35Speaker 3: they're so dialed in. Did you see that the bottles
- 18:38Speaker 3: of champagne, 191?
- 18:39Speaker 2: Oh, yes.
- 18:40Speaker 3: One for each city in the state of Wisconsin.
- 18:43Speaker 1: Oh, yes.
- 18:44Speaker 2: Look at that. I saw that.
- 18:45Speaker 3: Danny Larea, he's taking the Mequon bottle home because he
- 18:48Speaker 3: lives in Mequon. So it's like every bottle. And they
- 18:52Speaker 3: travel with a flag. I was going to say with
- 18:53Speaker 3: the flag with all of the cities. And every visiting
- 18:55Speaker 3: clubhouse with every city.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Oh, that hit me right in the feels when I
- 18:59Speaker 2: saw that. I knew it would.
- 19:00Speaker 5: But that's the way the brewers roll. They do stuff
- 19:02Speaker 5: like that, man. Who's getting the Racine one? I hope
- 19:04Speaker 5: they send that to everybody that voted against George P-Tech.
- 19:06Speaker 2: George P-Tech 31 years ago or whatever the other day.
- 19:10Speaker 2: Armand Zarian is fired up.
- 19:11Speaker 3: Or give it to Vinny Rattino because he's from Racine.
- 19:14Speaker 6: I was going to say that might be a Vinny one.
- 19:16Speaker 6: Armand not only has the personalized on. My man got
- 19:20Speaker 6: the we are going and knocking out the freaking L.A.
- 19:23Speaker 2: Dodger guard. Back in the NLCS Glazers this morning.
- 19:26Speaker 5: Oh, yes.
- 19:27Speaker 2: And I was there so early. That's when you know
- 19:28Speaker 2: it's a good day. That's when you know. I would
- 19:30Speaker 2: have got chicken.
- 19:30Speaker 5: I don't think the old boy there working at whatever
- 19:33Speaker 5: time I was there was making.
- 19:34Speaker 2: Chicken, though, up yet. You know what I mean?
- 19:36Speaker 3: Probably not.
- 19:36Speaker 2: That's a big ask, even for a quick trip. I mean,
- 19:39Speaker 2: at that time. But, yeah, we got Glazers. Victory Glazers.
- 19:42Speaker 2: Victory Glazers. We're doing it today. All right.
- 19:44Speaker 3: Let's have some fun today, shall we? We will talk
- 19:46Speaker 3: about the Packers and the Bears. We've got a huddle tonight.
- 19:50Speaker 3: We can talk baseball at the huddle, the Thursday night huddle.
- 19:52Speaker 3: There's not a lot that says we can't.
- 19:54Speaker 2: We're allowed to.
- 19:54Speaker 3: Because, yeah, it's going to be a glorious couple days
- 19:57Speaker 3: as the Brewers get ready for the rematch against the Dodgers.
- 19:59Speaker 3: The NLCS is upon us. Let's get after it. You're
- 20:02Speaker 3: in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio.
- 20:06Speaker 7: Not sure I can do this, but I trust you
- 20:08Speaker 7: and I believe in you. So let's celebrate and get
- 20:11Speaker 7: out of here.
- 20:23Speaker 3: Rolling along the huddle, Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. It is
- 20:26Speaker 3: the Thursday edition. There will be a Thursday night huddle tonight. Pottawatomie,
- 20:31Speaker 3: the official sportsbook partner of the Green Bay Packers, your sport,
- 20:33Speaker 3: our stadium, the greatest spot to watch a doubleheader, and
- 20:36Speaker 3: that will be the back end of our doubleheader in
- 20:38Speaker 3: the huddle, Mornings. and afternoons, the last one. And then
- 20:42Speaker 3: you can watch the, is it a double header? If
- 20:45Speaker 3: they're not back to back, it'll be concurrent. It'll be, Buccaneers, Cowboys,
- 20:49Speaker 3: and Guardians White Sox.
- 20:50Speaker 6: Yeah, but good luck flipping because you're going to have
- 20:53Speaker 6: to go in between Prime and the other one.
- 20:54Speaker 2: But you know what?
- 20:55Speaker 3: It'll be worth it.
- 20:56Speaker 2: They're all there for you. That's true.
- 20:57Speaker 6: You saddle up at the Sportsbook Hangout. And if you
- 21:00Speaker 6: really like the Annex area, once we're, I mean, you
- 21:03Speaker 6: can always be hanging out there as well. Maybe a
- 21:05Speaker 6: little bit toned down version of the Sportsbook.
- 21:08Speaker 2: Is that fair?
- 21:08Speaker 6: Maybe a little more comfortable version because sometimes you can
- 21:11Speaker 6: be a little information overload when you walk into that Sportsbook.
- 21:14Speaker 6: I know some people get a little nervous sometimes. The Annex,
- 21:16Speaker 6: a little more comfortable version.
- 21:18Speaker 5: I feel like the sports book itself is the main spot.
- 21:21Speaker 2: It's like the club. It's like the main stage.
- 21:23Speaker 5: It's where everybody, the lights are going, the music, the
- 21:25Speaker 5: club's on. And the Annex is like the lounge area
- 21:28Speaker 5: in the back. If you're a VIP by the booths
- 21:30Speaker 5: where you try and, hey, what's up?
- 21:32Speaker 2: How's it going? Make your connections. You go hit up
- 21:34Speaker 2: the side stages.
- 21:35Speaker 5: That's your lounge area where you try and make the connection.
- 21:38Speaker 5: That's what the annex is, so it's a little more
- 21:41Speaker 5: comfortable situation.
- 21:42Speaker 2: But you have everything you need there. You have the kiosks.
- 21:45Speaker 5: You have the menu, obviously, when you want to get
- 21:47Speaker 5: your food and your drinks and everything. And you have
- 21:49Speaker 5: all those screens still if you want to watch the games.
- 21:52Speaker 2: And that's important.
- 21:53Speaker 5: That's the spot to be at because you talk about
- 21:55Speaker 5: flipping back and forth and all that stuff.
- 21:56Speaker 2: You don't have to worry about that when you're at
- 21:57Speaker 2: Pottawatomie Sportsbook. And that's the best part about it. So
- 22:00Speaker 2: it'll be a fun night, especially because I look at
- 22:04Speaker 2: it this way.
- 22:04Speaker 5: I've always there's no better feeling than watching everybody else
- 22:07Speaker 5: play when you've already won. OK, there's no better feeling.
- 22:10Speaker 5: Now we have it would have been fine. You know,
- 22:13Speaker 5: game four, game five, whatever. You want to win because
- 22:15Speaker 5: you have more time to bask in the glory before
- 22:17Speaker 5: the next season series starts. That's kind of the way
- 22:20Speaker 5: I've always looked at it as a fan. So I
- 22:22Speaker 5: love that we have a few days now to enjoy
- 22:23Speaker 5: it before we get ready to go for this mammoth
- 22:27Speaker 5: showdown with the Dodgers.
- 22:29Speaker 3: Mammoth is a good way to put it. Yeah, it's
- 22:32Speaker 3: a rematch.
- 22:33Speaker 6: They just showed McGill getting doused by about 12 beers
- 22:36Speaker 6: at one time. A couple of the good highlights thrown in.
- 22:39Speaker 6: I'm excited to get Hunter's reaction to it. You could
- 22:42Speaker 6: tell McGill was having a good time. Always does. There
- 22:44Speaker 6: was one good shot of Cooper Pratt just hardcore double fisting.
- 22:49Speaker 6: And he just looked into the camera with the two
- 22:50Speaker 6: Budweiser's and just gives a little.
- 22:52Speaker 2: Smile like, yeah.
- 22:53Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 22:54Speaker 6: Right here and to be able to put aside the
- 22:58Speaker 6: struggles that he had last night i mean he had
- 23:00Speaker 6: a roller coaster ride in one night it was it
- 23:03Speaker 6: had me texting hunter and you know i do have
- 23:06Speaker 6: to apologize to him when he comes on as he's
- 23:08Speaker 6: there covering a baseball game i'm just blowing up his
- 23:10Speaker 6: phone and we're just going through the entire game there's
- 23:13Speaker 6: a number of different moments drew where uh i was
- 23:17Speaker 6: i Harkening back to a couple of our conversations of wondering,
- 23:21Speaker 6: do they go with some of the vets? Do they
- 23:23Speaker 6: let the youngsters eat and let them in there? Hey,
- 23:27Speaker 6: throw him into the deep end and see if he
- 23:29Speaker 6: can swim. At times, it went right up under the water,
- 23:32Speaker 6: but he was about 20 feet away from a big
- 23:35Speaker 6: two-run shot. Gives him that second and third with nobody
- 23:39Speaker 6: out on the ground rule double. And Pratt was just
- 23:42Speaker 6: right there in the middle of this thing. And you
- 23:44Speaker 6: know that he's going to have to be a huge
- 23:45Speaker 6: reason if they're going to ultimately be able to get
- 23:47Speaker 6: this done against L.A.
- 23:48Speaker 5: And I think what you did, you know, bringing these
- 23:50Speaker 5: guys up. Now, Laura's taking a backseat a little bit
- 23:52Speaker 5: because Sal's played well. So in a little sense, they've
- 23:54Speaker 5: done that with Sal, with the vet. But they basically,
- 23:57Speaker 5: when they brought Cooper up midseason, they said, look, this
- 24:00Speaker 5: is going to be your time.
- 24:01Speaker 2: This is going to be your position.
- 24:02Speaker 5: And you're going to have to meet that burden of
- 24:05Speaker 5: being in this spot for a team that wants to
- 24:08Speaker 5: win a championship. That's why you're playing right now to
- 24:10Speaker 5: get ready. We're not going to call you up in September.
- 24:12Speaker 5: We're calling you up right now so you can be
- 24:15Speaker 5: ready for that moment. And he has had some issues defensively,
- 24:19Speaker 5: but he has not let them affect him on the
- 24:21Speaker 5: next play. And I think that's what's impressive. And at
- 24:23Speaker 5: the plate, he's looked really good. So when the ball
- 24:25Speaker 5: is hit to Cooper, I'm still confident he'll make the play.
- 24:27Speaker 5: I know he's had a couple errors here, but I
- 24:32Speaker 5: think he's the man for the moment there.
- 24:33Speaker 2: And yeah, you have Lara as.
- 24:36Speaker 5: The fourth outfielder right now, which is totally fine.
- 24:38Speaker 2: Sal's the guy right now.
- 24:39Speaker 5: So, you know, I think that's where the Brewers should
- 24:42Speaker 5: be commended is they didn't balk on bringing him up
- 24:45Speaker 5: early during the season. When things were going well, they
- 24:47Speaker 5: could have said, let's just let this boat keep rocking.
- 24:49Speaker 5: They said, no, we're not going to worry about that.
- 24:51Speaker 5: We're going to bring him up right now and help
- 24:53Speaker 5: the whole team and help Ortiz, obviously, and other guys.
- 24:56Speaker 3: As the Brewers were popping bottles, there's a great picture
- 24:58Speaker 3: of Cooper Pratt holding the two bottles of Fanta.
- 25:01Speaker 2: The Fanta.
- 25:02Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 25:02Speaker 2: The Fanta.
- 25:03Speaker 3: Armin's favorite soda of yours. Orange Fanta. Different flavors, of course.
- 25:08Speaker 3: Who doesn't drink the booze? So he's like, and then
- 25:09Speaker 3: he was, according to Kurt Hogue, he was reading the
- 25:14Speaker 3: ingredients and talking about how much high fructose corn syrup
- 25:16Speaker 3: he was putting into his body.
- 25:18Speaker 2: Classic Gen Z. That is a super Gen Z. Classic
- 25:21Speaker 2: Gen Z.
- 25:21Speaker 5: Now, I always thought, like, if you weren't going to
- 25:23Speaker 5: do the champagne, if a guy didn't want to booze it,
- 25:26Speaker 5: it would be like ginger ale because it's like a
- 25:28Speaker 5: similar soda.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Or a similar type of drink.
- 25:30Speaker 3: Sparkling grape juice.
- 25:31Speaker 2: Sparkling grape, same deal.
- 25:32Speaker 3: Murph doesn't drink either.
- 25:33Speaker 2: Fanta, you want to do it, just whatever you guys want.
- 25:36Speaker 2: I mean, who cares? Spray Diet Right. Spray RC Cola
- 25:40Speaker 2: for all I care. Who cares? Absolutely.
- 25:43Speaker 6: Had a shot of him with those phantom bottles. Just
- 25:46Speaker 6: dudes being dudes. Guys are awesome, aren't they?
- 25:50Speaker 2: This is when we see it, too.
- 25:52Speaker 5: Everyone kept saying it was a muted celebration, but McGill
- 25:54Speaker 5: still said, I'll still take my shirt off and do
- 25:56Speaker 5: all that stuff.
- 25:57Speaker 6: Woody had his shirt off before they even did anything
- 26:00Speaker 6: in that clubhouse. They shot in there, and all of
- 26:02Speaker 6: a sudden, Woody's just walking around shirtless, ready to start partying.
- 26:05Speaker 2: Hey, man, I did my work.
- 26:07Speaker 3: Another thing that strikes me, and we're going to be
- 26:09Speaker 3: watching the video this game because that's what we got
- 26:12Speaker 3: in the celebration for a while yep uh it's actually
- 26:15Speaker 3: well it's their second yes they won the division and
- 26:19Speaker 3: they didn't really celebrate you know the playoff car the
- 26:21Speaker 3: playoff thing and they just like kind of toasted the
- 26:23Speaker 3: best record but this is their second you win the
- 26:27Speaker 3: series you don't play they've to me in my book
- 26:30Speaker 3: i will i will die on this hill that they've
- 26:32Speaker 3: won two playoff series we only got to we only
- 26:34Speaker 3: got to watch one and got to see one selly
- 26:37Speaker 3: But they won the one that they didn't have to
- 26:39Speaker 3: play by not playing the first round.
- 26:41Speaker 2: Well, I agree.
- 26:42Speaker 5: You know, I've always been trying to kind of support
- 26:44Speaker 5: you in that. In years past, when it came to
- 26:47Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers, I used to say that he should get
- 26:49Speaker 5: credit for wildcard wins when he earned buys. Like his
- 26:52Speaker 5: playoff record was always whatever it was. But I'm like, well,
- 26:54Speaker 5: you don't count the wildcard. You're really not going to
- 26:56Speaker 5: like Brady's playoff record.
- 26:57Speaker 2: No, I know. I know it's nasty. He's nasty. But
- 26:59Speaker 2: it's like.
- 27:01Speaker 5: Of course, no one's going to agree with me on
- 27:02Speaker 5: these things. I always said that. Like, hey, it's just
- 27:05Speaker 5: like my whole receivers and quarterbacks should get yardage credit
- 27:08Speaker 5: for passing interference calls, but no one's ever going to
- 27:10Speaker 5: get it. But you make a great point, Drew. It's like,
- 27:12Speaker 5: this is why you win. This is why you earn
- 27:14Speaker 5: that series, because you earn the extra round. It's like
- 27:16Speaker 5: a free win. Yeah.
- 27:17Speaker 2: Well, and once you're in it, you learn it.
- 27:19Speaker 6: The Cubs talked about it this year around the deadline,
- 27:22Speaker 6: and It was Jed Hoyer who had mentioned he's like, well,
- 27:25Speaker 6: maybe our plans would be a little bit different if
- 27:27Speaker 6: we had to buy. Like if we're if we're fighting
- 27:29Speaker 6: to maybe get the buy, things could be a little
- 27:31Speaker 6: bit different because it's just that important. And it's just
- 27:35Speaker 6: that different. You go and play a three game series
- 27:39Speaker 6: where you could be two rough outings in a bullpen
- 27:42Speaker 6: away from going home. and to actually having a legitimate
- 27:45Speaker 6: back and forth, there's a huge difference to that. CeCe
- 27:48Speaker 6: Sabathia tweeted out last night, nobody more deserving than the
- 27:51Speaker 6: city of Milwaukee and the fans.
- 27:52Speaker 2: Man, my man, CeCe.
- 27:54Speaker 3: CeCe still has a soft spot.
- 27:56Speaker 2: And you can feel it's genuine. He was at the
- 27:59Speaker 2: game one. He was at game two?
- 28:02Speaker 6: One or two, I can't remember. I think it was
- 28:04Speaker 6: game two he had posted that he was in there.
- 28:06Speaker 6: Really good stories coming out, and we're going to get
- 28:09Speaker 6: a ton of it from Hunter, but Uribe after the
- 28:11Speaker 6: game last night and in the Journal Sentinel post, off
- 28:13Speaker 6: the 99-mile-an-hour fastball or sinker that Machado hit to the wall.
- 28:18Speaker 6: He said, yep, I thought it was gone off the bat, man.
- 28:21Speaker 6: I thought it was gone off the bat, man. I'm
- 28:22Speaker 6: not going to lie to you.
- 28:23Speaker 2: No reason to.
- 28:24Speaker 6: And you could tell by the reaction from Uribe right
- 28:28Speaker 6: off of the bat.
- 28:28Speaker 2: Like, oh, no. He for sure thought it was gone.
- 28:31Speaker 6: Good crowd shots of the watch party that they ended
- 28:35Speaker 6: up throwing outside of American Family Field. Again, I'm just
- 28:39Speaker 6: going to throw this out there to the crew. Just
- 28:41Speaker 6: open that ballpark up.
- 28:42Speaker 3: That'd be nice.
- 28:43Speaker 6: That looked like a crew that could have been five
- 28:47Speaker 6: or six times the attendance. You put them inside the stadium,
- 28:52Speaker 6: maybe warm it up a little bit. Absolutely going to
- 28:55Speaker 6: have that many more people.
- 28:55Speaker 5: I mean, this is Milwaukee. This is Wisconsin. We want
- 28:58Speaker 5: to gather and celebrate as a community. We're very good
- 29:01Speaker 5: at doing that. It's part of our DNA. I totally agree.
- 29:05Speaker 5: I don't know if there's a reason besides the staffing
- 29:07Speaker 5: and this and that. It's a very good idea, I
- 29:10Speaker 5: would think. And I think it's still a reverent opportunity.
- 29:13Speaker 5: So I would agree with you there. We want to gather.
- 29:16Speaker 5: It's what we do. A couple quick texts here and
- 29:19Speaker 5: messages in already. Everyone's up and at them. because, you know,
- 29:23Speaker 5: they're excited. I mean, who wouldn't be? Troy Casper on YouTube.
- 29:26Speaker 5: Welcome to the NLCS, boys. And he's got boys with
- 29:29Speaker 5: a Z, which I love. A little bit of party there.
- 29:32Speaker 5: Zach stayed up for the game on the way to
- 29:34Speaker 5: work now. Never been so happy to be so tired.
- 29:36Speaker 5: Love this team.
- 29:38Speaker 2: John K., good morning, boys. Bring on the Dodgers. I
- 29:41Speaker 2: love that one.
- 29:42Speaker 6: I like that from Zach. Never been this happy to
- 29:44Speaker 6: be this tired. That's generally reserved for waking up early
- 29:47Speaker 6: for a flight to Vegas for me.
- 29:48Speaker 5: That's the one, Billy. I was thinking the same thing.
- 29:51Speaker 5: That's the one when you're excited to go on a trip.
- 29:53Speaker 5: I read out Tim not seeing Mac and cheese head man.
- 29:55Speaker 5: He could home run stolen was epic. And the stolen
- 29:57Speaker 5: base by Armin.
- 29:58Speaker 2: Sorry. And light was huge.
- 30:00Speaker 5: No, I like that. I like that he's Armin Sarian-like.
- 30:03Speaker 5: I'm not Sal Freelick-like. Well, yeah, I mean, he is
- 30:05Speaker 5: like 15 years younger than you. Yeah, well, yeah, but
- 30:07Speaker 5: he's also more successful.
- 30:08Speaker 2: Actually closer to 20. Well, he's more successful, though. I mean,
- 30:11Speaker 2: I would say. I wouldn't necessarily say that. You know,
- 30:13Speaker 2: that's a good point. I mean, we're both. He's not
- 30:15Speaker 2: the executive.
- 30:16Speaker 6: Director, producer of the Packers Radio Network.
- 30:18Speaker 2: Come on. Yeah, what are you doing?
- 30:19Speaker 1: Cool.
- 30:19Speaker 2: Gold glove right fielder.
- 30:20Speaker 5: Right.
- 30:21Speaker 2: Sick. Executive producer of the Packers Radio Network. How many
- 30:24Speaker 2: stations are you on? 45, 50, whatever it is across
- 30:28Speaker 2: five states. Yeah, we got a lot of states.
- 30:30Speaker 3: I think you should flex that arm a little bit
- 30:32Speaker 3: more than you just did.
- 30:33Speaker 2: Six states. Six states.
- 30:34Speaker 6: Sorry.
- 30:35Speaker 2: Thank you. Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, North, South Dakota. Derek
- 30:38Speaker 2: from Whitewater.
- 30:39Speaker 5: Do you think Murph put any thought into putting McGill
- 30:41Speaker 5: in the eighth instead of the ninth to face their
- 30:42Speaker 5: better hitters?
- 30:43Speaker 4: Maybe.
- 30:44Speaker 5: I mean, some some guys have done that, but I
- 30:47Speaker 5: think he was going to trust his guys right there.
- 30:49Speaker 6: You know, you could tell Fox definitely wanted Miz to
- 30:53Speaker 6: be coming in the game. That was a big storyline
- 30:59Speaker 6: there for a while.
- 31:00Speaker 2: Oh, Miz is getting stretched and getting ready, and there
- 31:02Speaker 2: he is sitting.
- 31:03Speaker 3: That being said, he was Spikes on in the first inning.
- 31:08Speaker 6: Yeah, and he did look like, I saw somebody tweet
- 31:10Speaker 6: this out, he did look like the kid that was
- 31:12Speaker 6: just waiting to get picked. He was just sitting there
- 31:14Speaker 6: in full uniform, sitting as straight up as possible, legs
- 31:18Speaker 6: shaking because he just can't wait to potentially get in there.
- 31:21Speaker 6: And Murph said it after the game, that was all
- 31:23Speaker 6: for show. I love him standing up there throwing in
- 31:26Speaker 6: the in the ninth inning. No, that was all for show.
- 31:28Speaker 6: That was going to be McGill. He was going to
- 31:29Speaker 6: have to close the door for it. But you wondered
- 31:33Speaker 6: and the radio guys did it immediately after the second inning.
- 31:38Speaker 1: Ms.
- 31:39Speaker 6: May have gone to either get a Gatorade, Drew. take
- 31:42Speaker 6: a leak, do just about anything possible in the dugout.
- 31:45Speaker 2: Get a piece of candy.
- 31:46Speaker 6: And immediately Levering goes, there is a tall young man
- 31:50Speaker 6: walking around in the Brewers bullpen.
- 31:53Speaker 2: Oh, here we go. Okay, never mind. He just sat down.
- 31:55Speaker 6: Because let's admit it is a dramatic. Might be the
- 31:57Speaker 6: only guy that you're able to see out there. But yeah,
- 31:59Speaker 6: the drama was in and the intrigue was there to
- 32:01Speaker 6: see if he was going to go.
- 32:02Speaker 2: It's a dramatic type moment. I mean, I get it.
- 32:04Speaker 2: Who was it?
- 32:05Speaker 5: Maybe it was Kershaw once that went from the dugout.
- 32:07Speaker 5: to the bullpen mid, uh, mid, you know, between innings
- 32:11Speaker 5: once in a playoff game and people freaked like, there
- 32:14Speaker 5: he goes.
- 32:14Speaker 3: He's getting ready to go. He's making the trip. So
- 32:17Speaker 3: it was all hands on deck for the Padres last night.
- 32:19Speaker 3: They use Robbie Ray second out of the shoe behind Buehler.
- 32:23Speaker 3: And then they use Mason Miller and a big inning
- 32:25Speaker 3: in the seventh.
- 32:27Speaker 2: Brewers almost tagged him. Almost tagged him. Two hits and
- 32:30Speaker 2: a walk. Great inning off him, actually.
- 32:32Speaker 3: Great inning off him. And then Musgrove, the people's champion,
- 32:34Speaker 3: the guy from there that they love, pitched the last
- 32:37Speaker 3: two scoreless. But the hay was in the barn. Brewers win.
- 32:41Speaker 3: They prevail. And they're moving on. Rematch against the Dodgers
- 32:45Speaker 3: beginning Sunday night.
- 32:46Speaker 2: What a glorious day.
- 32:48Speaker 3: How glorious will it be if the Packers beat the
- 32:50Speaker 3: Bears and the Brewers beat the Dodgers? If we double
- 32:54Speaker 3: up on Sunday... Our first afternoon show is going to
- 32:57Speaker 3: be absolutely raucous.
- 32:59Speaker 2: Just send me to the heavens. We're ready for some
- 33:01Speaker 2: pie in the sky.
- 33:02Speaker 3: Send me to the heavens or send me to the finest.
- 33:06Speaker 2: It could be even better. Now we're talking.
- 33:10Speaker 3: Sources close to our situation say that we very well
- 33:13Speaker 3: could be doing a little pregame festivities. Our first afternoon
- 33:17Speaker 3: show with the huddle could be emanating from Saz's Statehouse.
- 33:20Speaker 2: All with some beer.
- 33:22Speaker 6: Beautiful ribs with sassy Saz's sauce.
- 33:25Speaker 2: My goodness. That's going to be exciting. Yes, indeed. I'll
- 33:29Speaker 2: be thinking about that.
- 33:30Speaker 1: Yep.
- 33:30Speaker 5: And I'm also, speaking of Saz's, when I think of Saz's,
- 33:33Speaker 5: I think Milwaukee Admirals. I want to know what's going
- 33:37Speaker 5: on Saturday night because Greeny dropped that little nugget yesterday.
- 33:40Speaker 5: And now that the series is over and guys have
- 33:42Speaker 5: some time off.
- 33:43Speaker 3: There will be some guys around for sure. I think
- 33:46Speaker 3: there will be several.
- 33:47Speaker 2: Brother. members. I'm not working that night, but I might
- 33:49Speaker 2: have to go slide in. That's what I'm talking about.
- 33:52Speaker 2: You might have to come down. You could work with us.
- 33:54Speaker 2: I gotta pass. Well, I don't know if I'll make
- 33:56Speaker 2: it in time because of babysitting. I'm not talking about
- 33:58Speaker 2: all that right now. Hey, Hunter's got a report for us,
- 34:00Speaker 2: by the way. He filed and he didn't sleep.
- 34:01Speaker 3: When we come back, we'll hear Hunter's report. We'll start
- 34:04Speaker 3: spinning through some of the sound that he provided. He's
- 34:06Speaker 3: going to join us live as he's sitting in the
- 34:09Speaker 3: airport at 725. He'll be with us having some fun
- 34:13Speaker 3: because it's one of those 10% days when it doesn't
- 34:15Speaker 3: suck to be a sports fan.
- 34:17Speaker 2: You're in the huddle.
- 34:17Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
- 34:21Speaker 2: Drew, Billy, and Armin bringing it to you.
- 34:23Speaker 3: I actually got off the couch last night and went
- 34:25Speaker 3: and saw my pal Rhett Miller at Shank Hall.
- 34:27Speaker 2: Let's go. Go to the show.
- 34:29Speaker 3: Fooks who are going to Spring Green on Friday and Saturday,
- 34:32Speaker 3: you're going to have a blast.
- 34:34Speaker 2: Rhett was rocking it. Sounded good. Great.
- 34:36Speaker 3: Sounded great. He was in great spirits. Great set list.
- 34:39Speaker 3: As he said in our interview, it's like he played
- 34:42Speaker 3: a lot of old 97 stuff and his solo stuff.
- 34:44Speaker 3: It was just a hit jukebox. It was a great show.
- 34:47Speaker 2: A lot of fun.
- 34:49Speaker 3: Louie Lucchese and Mike Benign open local guys that are
- 34:52Speaker 3: cool from the Louie and the Flash Bombs band. So
- 34:55Speaker 3: it was a good night. Crowd was a little bit
- 34:58Speaker 3: diminished by Brewers, of course. Had the Brewers won, you know,
- 35:04Speaker 3: they won in game three. It probably would have been
- 35:05Speaker 3: another 75 people. But it is what it is.
- 35:08Speaker 2: You said he's tight with Matt Favreau or Vince Vaughn
- 35:11Speaker 2: or one of those guys, right?
- 35:12Speaker 3: Uh, he was in a movie with the breakup, the
- 35:16Speaker 3: band in the break.
- 35:17Speaker 2: I remember them being in that movie.
- 35:18Speaker 3: Red appeared on an episode of the office because they
- 35:21Speaker 3: were fans of him. So he did appear in the
- 35:23Speaker 3: episode of the office. And yeah, man, he's got a
- 35:25Speaker 3: lot of stories. We were talking about it and he's
- 35:27Speaker 3: just like, yeah, it's, you know, the money is, you know,
- 35:31Speaker 3: fine to live comfortably, but he's in this, he's like,
- 35:33Speaker 3: the perks are awesome. Some of his best friends are
- 35:36Speaker 3: the guys that do what we do down in Dallas
- 35:39Speaker 3: on the ticket.
- 35:40Speaker 2: Oh, sure.
- 35:41Speaker 3: One of their P1s, Gordon and those guys, those are
- 35:43Speaker 3: his buddies. And he's really good. He's really tight with
- 35:46Speaker 3: Eric Nadel, who's a legendary play-by-play guy down in Dallas.
- 35:49Speaker 3: And I introduced him to his fellow Texan, Brian.
- 35:52Speaker 2: Anderson, and other buds. Let's go.
- 35:54Speaker 3: I actually texted BA last night because after hanging out
- 35:57Speaker 3: with Rhett for a little bit after the show, I
- 35:59Speaker 3: saw BA's call of the of the, uh, race beating
- 36:03Speaker 3: the Yankees and sending them into the off season. And
- 36:06Speaker 3: so I texted my house with your buddy, Rhett, and
- 36:08Speaker 3: we were just, you.
- 36:09Speaker 6: Know, that was, I was going to say that was
- 36:11Speaker 6: a heck of a game, man. Tampa Bay team is fun.
- 36:15Speaker 6: And that, uh, that Cleveland Chicago series is going to
- 36:17Speaker 6: be fascinating to see if they can close it out here,
- 36:20Speaker 6: but BA got a good one and he's going to
- 36:22Speaker 6: get another good one there. I do love the fact though,
- 36:25Speaker 6: that we're already getting the adjustments. Let them move their
- 36:28Speaker 6: show up. What an hour, hour or so, 45 minutes
- 36:31Speaker 6: or so.
- 36:31Speaker 2: Yep.
- 36:32Speaker 6: The adjustments are going to be on and don't look now.
- 36:34Speaker 6: Next week, clear the deck because there's going to be
- 36:37Speaker 6: a lot of nights and a lot of people, a
- 36:39Speaker 6: lot of plans that are potentially changing. By the way,
- 36:41Speaker 6: the Yankees are now 17 years since their last title.
- 36:46Speaker 3: Just not for nothing.
- 36:47Speaker 2: You know what? They're going to blame Judge for this
- 36:48Speaker 2: one again one day.
- 36:49Speaker 6: We definitely have to remember that stat, Drew, when Wayne
- 36:53Speaker 6: joins us tomorrow at 7.35.
- 36:55Speaker 2: That's right. Is that mean of me to say?
- 36:57Speaker 3: Let's hear from Hunter Baumgart. Hunter Baumgart boots on the ground.
- 37:02Speaker 3: He is covering this series. What a great time for
- 37:04Speaker 3: Hunter to be on the road for the whole boat.
- 37:06Speaker 3: If the Brewers go all the way, he's going to
- 37:07Speaker 3: be there for every step. Let's take a listen to
- 37:09Speaker 3: Hunter's recap live from San Diego filed in the early
- 37:12Speaker 3: morning hours.
- 37:14Speaker 4: Thanks guys. The Milwaukee Brewers are headed back to the
- 37:16Speaker 4: NLCS for the second straight season after a 3-1 victory
- 37:20Speaker 4: in game four of the NLDS here in San Diego
- 37:22Speaker 4: last night. And wow, I'll tell you, the crowd was
- 37:25Speaker 4: ready to try to send the Padres to game five.
- 37:28Speaker 4: But the more the Brewers added on and kept the
- 37:30Speaker 4: Padres at one run, the crowd was less and less
- 37:34Speaker 4: into it. That aided the Brewers throughout the night. And
- 37:36Speaker 4: it was their pitching that was absolutely incredible. Robert Gasser,
- 37:40Speaker 4: four innings of one-run ball. Aaron Ashby didn't allow a
- 37:42Speaker 4: hit over three innings. Abner Uribe, a scoreless frame in
- 37:45Speaker 4: the eighth. And Trevor McGill slams the door in the ninth.
- 37:48Speaker 4: And the Brewers take this NLDS in four games. And
- 37:51Speaker 4: how about Garrett Mitchell's impact as well? He was 0-4
- 37:55Speaker 4: with three strikeouts in Game 3. But then he went
- 37:58Speaker 4: to Pat Murphy before Game 4 and said he was
- 38:01Speaker 4: going to turn it around. Here's Pat Murphy on that
- 38:03Speaker 4: conversation and the contributions from Mitchell.
- 38:05Speaker 2: He approached me today, and we sat and talked, and
- 38:08Speaker 2: he said, I got a plan tonight. I'm going to
- 38:10Speaker 2: be better.
- 38:10Speaker 6: Awesome.
- 38:11Speaker 2: But that's the accountability. He knew he owed it to
- 38:15Speaker 2: his teammates to come here in his best form.
- 38:18Speaker 4: And, of course, Garrett Mitchell not only getting it done offensively,
- 38:21Speaker 4: but robbing Manny Machado of what would have been a
- 38:23Speaker 4: game-tying home run. Now Christian Yelich is heading to his
- 38:26Speaker 4: third NLCS as a member of the Brewers, and he
- 38:29Speaker 4: reflected on game two when Jackson Shurio hit the walk-off
- 38:32Speaker 4: hit and how he really enjoyed actually seeing all of
- 38:35Speaker 4: the fan reaction videos on social media. You're going to
- 38:38Speaker 4: want to take a listen to this.
- 38:40Speaker 7: I think that was one of the coolest things about
- 38:42Speaker 7: Cheerios walk-off. You know, it was like seeing people's reactions
- 38:46Speaker 7: at home and in the game and them kind of
- 38:49Speaker 7: posting it on social media and they kind of come
- 38:51Speaker 7: up on ours because we're all around the same area
- 38:53Speaker 7: and stuff. It was really cool to see how much
- 38:56Speaker 7: that meant to people and the actual, the authentic joy
- 39:00Speaker 7: in those moments. Seeing people like, Us playing well and
- 39:05Speaker 7: winning games, like, what it means to people, and, like,
- 39:07Speaker 7: that was so awesome and really cool. Like, I don't know.
- 39:10Speaker 2: It was awesome.
- 39:11Speaker 7: And, you know, I know that if, you know, we
- 39:14Speaker 7: do what we want to do, like, how special that
- 39:16Speaker 7: would be to the city. And, you know, this is
- 39:19Speaker 7: one step down and a couple more to go.
- 39:21Speaker 4: Man, it would be awesome if Christian Yelich could bring
- 39:24Speaker 4: the city of Milwaukee and the state of Wisconsin and
- 39:26Speaker 4: Brewers fans everywhere a World Series. Well, this is it
- 39:31Speaker 4: from Petco Park. The Brewers have done what they need
- 39:34Speaker 4: to do. Advance to the NLCS. Game one Sunday night
- 39:36Speaker 4: at American Family Field. A rematch of Brewers and Dodgers
- 39:40Speaker 4: cannot wait. This report has been brought to you by
- 39:44Speaker 4: Community Roofing.
- 39:46Speaker 2: Back to you guys. That is awesome. Thank you, Hunter.
- 39:48Speaker 2: I love it. Y'all just read my tweets and stuff.
- 39:51Speaker 2: Now I knew that. Now he's following you. Now I've
- 39:53Speaker 2: confirmed the fact. He knows Armand's in his feels.
- 39:56Speaker 5: He's looking at everyone's social media and seeing how much
- 39:58Speaker 5: joy it brings to the people.
- 39:59Speaker 2: I mean, man, what a guy. Sorry, I just got.
- 40:02Speaker 6: I was going to say, did that get you misty
- 40:05Speaker 6: eyed a little bit?
- 40:06Speaker 2: I ate that thing up, man. And I like the
- 40:08Speaker 2: way Hunter said it up. You're going to want to
- 40:09Speaker 2: hear this.
- 40:12Speaker 6: I just got a picture of the bottle, Drew, that
- 40:14Speaker 6: you mentioned of all the cities across the state of Wisconsin.
- 40:18Speaker 6: Matt Erickson holding up the Appleton one is phenomenal. They
- 40:21Speaker 6: have leaned into the Wisco and the full state mantra.
- 40:25Speaker 6: And listen, as part of the crew that did see
- 40:29Speaker 6: those jerseys and say, and still will say, I don't
- 40:32Speaker 6: know anybody calls it Wisco. I really don't know anybody
- 40:36Speaker 6: calls it Wisco. The logo still looks like the Nationals. However,
- 40:40Speaker 6: I still love the vibe. I love the vibe even
- 40:43Speaker 6: more that they're buying into as much of being the
- 40:46Speaker 6: state's team because I was seeing a lot of folks
- 40:48Speaker 6: from a lot of stretches across this beautiful land of
- 40:51Speaker 6: ours that were very excited last night and probably staying
- 40:55Speaker 6: up far later than they would have imagined, they care
- 40:58Speaker 6: to admit, or that they end up later on tonight.
- 41:02Speaker 6: Will how late you stayed up last night be the
- 41:05Speaker 6: ice bowl? There will be some folks that ended up
- 41:06Speaker 6: staying up until about 145, 2 o'clock watching stuff.
- 41:09Speaker 2: Later and later. But we're here for you very early
- 41:11Speaker 2: for you.
- 41:12Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 41:12Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 41:13Speaker 3: We're going to have some fun. Dolph's going to join
- 41:15Speaker 3: us at 625, 107, 25. You're in the huddle. Fox
