• 3:07
  Speaker 2: no John Len today, two of my favorite things to do,

  Speaker 2: but we just don't have time and we need to
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: get to Joe Shian and Josh has been busting my
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: chops for however long, jess about you still have me on? Well, yeah, buddy,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: we're in the Goal World series. Like, let's just be honest. Really,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: that's kind of where I want to start today. And
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: you know two things I want to hit on one and
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: I we I'm gonna play it again at some point
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: this week, maybe tomorrow. Chris Chris Crawford had a great
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: When we do Molly want mondays, we start with the
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: kind of an opening statement from Chris and with Nate
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: and Chris had just a great and he just said
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: it so well. Yesterday he talked about, you know how
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: everyone shouldn't be enjoying this and don't be that guy
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: or that woman. Don't be that person that is chastising
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: those who were quote jumping on the Mariner.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: Bandwid Yeah, be that person.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: And I and I said this a zillion times. Nothing
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: pissed me off more than hearing the snobby looking down
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: my nose Seahawk fan that, yeah, I know, you saw
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: them play in the Bearing era. You saw them play
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: when Tom Flores was the coach and things were bad,
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: and now you're mad in the twelve since twelve, you're.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: Just don't do that. Just don't do that, and don't
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: be like that.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: If you're a baseball guy and you've been, yeah, you've been,
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: you know, charting games and keeping score on your own.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: You notepaded games forever, and you can't. Don't be like
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: the guy that sat next to my kid at the
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: game two of the Alds.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Sit down.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Don't be that person. What we have seen and what
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: we're experiencing in this town is, frankly, it's unprecedented, and
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: probably the only time you can compare it. N other
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: thing you can compare it to is the maybe when
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: the Sonics went went to the finals in ninety six,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: when they took that really deep playoff runt and got
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: there and get Michael and Scotty and that Bulls Dynasty team.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: And what I mean by that is the whole town
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: is coming alive, and you're just kind of there's this
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: this crescendo, right of like waiting a day off day.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Next day is a game day. You build up, you
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: build up, get to the game, keep that high. After
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: there's a game the next day. I mean, back and
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: forth we go. That's what we're at right now. That's
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: what the beautiful thing about seven game series or six
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: game or five game series, whatever it is, it's the difference.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: It's the only advantage really that the NBA, NHL and
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: in this case Major League Baseball have over the NFL,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: NFL's one and done college football playoff one and done.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: This is just, you know, we just build this great
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: momentum and with that momentum comes people jumping on the bandwagon.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: It has been to me the best thing about this, honestly,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: the best thing about this. And I'm you know, I've
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: I'm fighting some internal demons with some things with the organization,
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: and but the best thing about this, and what kind
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: of keeps me going and fired up is not the
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: fact that I've been a Seattlementer's baseball fan for a
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: long time and through bad times, through well, frankly, never
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: good ownership. The thing that's kept me going is seeing
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: this city just come together and fired up. And you know,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: for me, and I think a lot of people can
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: relate to this, my family, you know, watching the games.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: God, I'm so glad my kids graduated from college.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: And he's you know, working on everything right now while
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: he still lives at home until he can get to
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: get that financial world set to go to to move out,
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: and so watching games with him. My wife, who is
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: a very casual sports fan, she's sitting there watching with
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: great interest in all the games. And how many of
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: you guys can relate to that? And here's the best thing.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: Here's the best thing about this, and this is what
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: I like the best is that it's going to continue
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: for another couple of weeks.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: Yes, because I'm sorry too, and oh it's over.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: It's over, and you can text me about jinxing it
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: and soft he's probably driving off the road or whatever
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: right now.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: It's fine. Yeah.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: Now I'll say, no hitter, I'll say this, I'll say
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: shut out. Doesn't matter. It's done. And the reason it's
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: done is they're better. It's readily a parent. I know
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: it's a seven game series, and no way that this team,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: the Toronto Blue Jays, is going to come back and
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: win four games, four games in the next five like
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: they're just not gonna do it, like they it's it's
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: not going to happen. Seattle is basically an absolute wagon.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: They've been that way for the last couple of months,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: regular season, trickling now into the postseason. And my only
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: complaint with them is I'm bored. I'm just bored. What
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I'm bored?
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: How can this team.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Because it's they're not I mean, outside of the fifteen
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: inning game, the last two games have been boring.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: I'm bored.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: I'm just getting to the World Series. I mean, I
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: just I'm just bored. It's it's I'm sorry. I mean
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: yesterday was I mean, basically, they gave up one run,
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: Emerson Hancock came in and gave up more. I understand that.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: But but but they they're just dominating these guys. And
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: I say that obviously tongue in cheek.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: I'm not bored.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: But get me to the World Series and the Dodgers
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: getting and holding on for dear bloody life last night
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: to get that wine and they leave one nothing over Milwaukee.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: The road teams are now three to zero in the
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: ALCS and NLCS. Dodgers and Brewers play again later on
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: today at five o'clock. But it just I'm I'm daring
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: to dream right now. This inevitable, what it feels like,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: an inevitable West Coast matchup Dodgers and Mariners, and let's
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: make it happen. Starts a week from Friday. By the way,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: I think the only question now we have is this,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: do we close it out? And the Marion's close it
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: out in four five. It ain't going back.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: It's not going back like it's it's not going to
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: go back to Toronto. Think about it.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: What would Toronto have to do to go back home.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: They'd have to win two or three here. That's not happening.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: That's not happening.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: It's not happening. So I joke about it tongue in cheek.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: I'm kind of bored. In a serious note, what I'm thinking,
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: I love them the most about this is just how
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: everyone is revved up. My friends at simply Seattle are
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: selling T shirts and sweatshirts and hoodies off the charts
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Simply sale dot com, malliwop fifteen to check out, by
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: the way, or Malliwa Monday Guys, Bars and restaurants around
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: the area are thriving. Watch parties are the thing now,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: which I think is kind of fun, because you know,
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: when everyone got big TVs and flat screens in their
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: house and all that, nobody wanted to leave the house.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: That's the other thing that says people want to leave
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: the house. I was just talking to checking in with
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: my guys at the Queen Anne Beer Hall, also on
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Lost Babyer Hall, and and the occidental beer hall down
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: in in Sodo there next to the stadiums. I mean,
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: they're they're doing great. Everyone's watching games. They want to
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: go out and have viewing parties.
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: It's cool. This is what's all. This is what.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: Sports are all about. So four nine, four five one
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: we'll get some texts at one five. More importantly, what
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: we'd love to do is hear from you via our talkbacks.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: Have not heard from you guys for a while. I'm
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: gonna tell you my overriding emotion right now, honestly, is calm.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: It's cool.
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: I feel that's the exact same way actually, and it's
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: own f Yeah.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: I probably felt more stressed, just as a fan and
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: someone who wants to see the team go far. And
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: so we can talk about it into late January February,
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: maybe even who knows. I found myself more stressed the
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: last five minutes of the Seahawk game than I have
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: at any point in this series against Toronto.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: Something.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: I just I'm watching it. I mean, Vlad can't hit
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: this pitching staff. Even though Kirby wasn't great yesterday, that's
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: all right, Bizardo was like really good, thanks for coming right. So,

• 13:29
  Speaker 2: Forty six out of forty nine years, this team, you know,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: it wasn't doing well at this time of the year,
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: So you got to understand that part of it too,
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: my friend.
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, forty nine years, and this is as close as
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: they've ever gotten. They've been with the two games in
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: the World Series back in one and now this year.
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: And it's just the thing about it is, I got
• 13:47
  Speaker 5: to I'm trying to remember, like how I felt about
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: that oh one team, you know, two games into the ALCS,
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: and that was the one who's the sixteen win team,
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: Like it felt like they were supposed to win in
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: the course and Yanks ended up beating them off the road.
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: Because I'm the big Homer, this feels more like they're
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: in control, not just being up to nothing, but being
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: up to nothing. With Kirby and Castilla lined up, possibly
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: Brian ruined Game five, they're the bullpen is better than
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: the James bullpen. Like everything is in their favor now.
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: Could they lose four out of five? Yes, that's the
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: way baseball goes if you go historically, James Smith on
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: Blue Sky had this great. He does all the research
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: for Yes Network on the Gage and stuff. Twenty eight
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: teams have lost the first two games at home in
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: a best of seven. Twenty five of them have lost
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: the series. So just three times and not since ninety
• 14:36
  Speaker 5: six has a team been in the Mariners position and
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: lost the series.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: I mentioned this first segment, and listen, everyone watches a
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: game differently watches it. You know, some people watch with
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: different types of emotions because we're human beings. Some people
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: watch some numbers. And I told just in the first segment,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: I feel this weird, calm, relaxed. I just I feel
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: like they're just that much better and you just kind
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: of sad it. You feel like they're in control. It
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: just I haven't in this series. It just hasn't felt
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: like they've been threatened. The Tigers, they lose game one
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: at home, they win the next two, lose Game four,
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: and have a stressful Game five. Like the Tiger series,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: there was some stress like yesterday, Yeah, three to three,
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: they Ja's come back and immediately a three run home
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: run by playoff Polanco. Thanks for coming, and they just
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: they kind of ran away with it. And on Sunday,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Bryce Miller, who will get to in a second, was terrific.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: I know you like him a lot was good too.
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: I just I don't feel like the J's and again,
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: baseball's weird.
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: You said it.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: I don't feel like the J's with what Sales got
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: pitching coming up, can hang with this team.
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: Joe, Well, I go back to what I've.
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: Been saying about the Marinis for a few months now,
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: which is that they can win. And think about just
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: these two games. They won a three to one game
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: and they won a ten three game. That said that
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: Tiger Series, they won a game eight four, and they
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: won an extra inding game three two. They can win
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: a lot of different types of games because they can
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: they can score, and they can pitch. And that's been
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: the kind of a mantra for me with the team
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: for a while. So I look at I agree with you.
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: I think you know, it's it's hard to make the
• 16:05
  Speaker 5: argument because the raised the Jays did have a better
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: record during the season, and if you look at the
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: underlying numbers these human the two teams are about equals.
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: So it's hard to make case that the Jays are
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: that better, But then you look really and a lot
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: of it is that pitching advantage. The Jays have one
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: high end starter in Kevin Gaustman. They traded for Shane Deeber,
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: Who's just not the Shane Deeber he was with the
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: Guardians earlier in the decade. You know, he won the
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: short season side un Award. He's been that number one
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: starter in the past. He's not that guy Trey Yesovitch. Hey, look,
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: yesterday was his fifth major league start, and you have
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: to expect that a guy is with that little experience. Remember,
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: this is his first full profession, first full, first professional
• 16:45
  Speaker 5: season at all. So I don't think it's that big
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: a surprise for got to go out there in a
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: playoff game as good as he looked against the Yankees
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: and slip a little bit, and up against guys like that,
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: you have Gilbert who did look good yesterday, Asto and Miller.
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: Miller is the number five on the Sea right now,
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: and Bryce Miller a year ago looks like at number two. Obviously,
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: the elbowishes this year. He never got his command straight,
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: but in two playoffs starts has been really good. That's starting.
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: Pitching depth to me is the difference in this series.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Josh and Joshian newslterd Joshian dot Com joining us is
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: weekly visit. I'm going to come back to Miller and
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: some other things pitching wise in a second. I do
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: want to touch in on the Dodgers Brewers game last night,
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: because you wrote about it and something. My son and
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: I were watching the game last night, going what is
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: David robertson here? Anyway, we'll get to that in a second.
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: Touch on something with you and I talked about right
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: before the season started, and that was we had brought
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: up before on our show, I think with Chris and
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: with Nathan on Mondays. This was back in July maybe,
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: and I don't think he even brought it up with
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: you the next day, but I remember we were talking. Boy,
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: the marriage are really reliant on the home run ball,
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: and I wonder if that is sustainable. Well in the
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: regular season, it proved to be. I brought that up
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: to you before the playoffs started, and Joe, you told me, hey, playoff.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: You know, teams are in the playoffs that are relying
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: on the home run ball usually have success. Now the
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: Yankees obviously are done, but boy, the Mariners seem like
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: they're taking that little stat and running with it in
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: the playoffs.
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: These are the two teams who were most reliant on
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: the home run during the regular season. The Yankees and
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: the Barons were exactly fifty percent. Of The Yankees were
• 18:17
  Speaker 5: a little bit higher than that. And you know, this
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: is a descriptive stat as much as it is anything else.
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: But when you get to the postseason, you find that
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: long sequence offense single walk, double, a bunch, let's do
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: five things in a row and score two runs. It
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: is a lot harder to sustain than walk home run.
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: I want to say I will started arguing about this
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: may be ten twelve years ago now, and by and large,
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: ian most people have accepted that this is the way
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: to win in the postseason, short sequence offense, because against
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: playoff pitching, you're just not going to be able to
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: create these long strings of runs. Not to say it
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: never happens. We saw the Brewers do it against the
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: Cubs a couple weeks back. I mean, it does happen,
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: but you're more likely to be able to rely on boom.
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: We got two runs on one swing. So you'd rather
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: be the Narriners type of offense in the playoffs. The
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: Jays also have plenty of power, just had to get
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: shown up so far. So the Jays had nine homers
• 19:08
  Speaker 5: against the Yankees in four games, so they clearly have
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: that kind of power as well. But you'd rather be
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: a team that could have these, that can have short
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: sequence offense. And this is what the business in the
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: Guardian's probably in recent years, the Guardians have had good
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: regular season teams and they get to the playoffs and
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: they just can't score. The Tigers, to a lesser extent,
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: have run into this. But I would much rather be
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: built around guys that can go deep than have to
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: try to strength to the other three or four events.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Joshian will always say the following to me when I
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: ask him questions that you know he has great sustain
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: for him, says, what am I talking to this guy
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: for Alsa? Well, it's a very this will be a
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: Jochian quote. Well it's a very small sample size, but
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask anyway. I know it's only two games
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: in small sample size, how concerned would the Jays be
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: about their you know, zillion dollar franchise player, mister Guerrero
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: not hitting yet?
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: What if I extended to also a small sample size
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: six games that we include the absolute destruction he performed
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: on the New York Yankees. So now let's say that
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: bad I mean this is I saw. I don't want
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: to mean the writer, but the writer basically had a
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: headline there was something wrong with his lives, like, oh,
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: you know, Jame's gotta be worried about Blag Guerrero. It's
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: two games. There's just there's no there's no there's absolutely
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: no signal in two games of baseball. There's no signal
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: in four games of baseball or eight games of baseball.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: But that's what the playoffs are. The playoffs are all
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: at small example, and it doesn't mean anything that a
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: guy goes zero for nine. He can go nine for
• 20:29
  Speaker 5: nine the next two days. Uh, it just doesn't. He
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: can go for nine again, it still doesn't mean anything.
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: This is what happens in the playoffs. Horry Polanco turns
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: into you know, Rogers Hornsby for a week, and the
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: Mariners get to be two games away from World Series.
• 20:41
  Speaker 5: It weren't in both directions. You think about the history
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: of baseball, the World Series MVPs aren't all superstars. Billy Hatcher. Uh,
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: Stephen Keers a couple of years ago with the Red Sox.
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: It's this is a this is one of the great
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: things about postseason baseball to me is that you get
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: random guys turning having the week of their lives and
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: going into the book and going into the history books.
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: So I love that. So maybe it's Polanco this year
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: for the Marriagers, or maybe they'll get to the World Series.
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: There will be dominant Canzela or somebody. I don't know,
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: but I just I love that.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: About the game well, which also tells you how fragile
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: it can be. A too nothing lead feels pretty secure
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: right now, but it's also fragile, right like, like all
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, the Jay's explode tomorrow and something happens,
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: You're like, uh, oh, what happened? Right like that that
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: could certainly happen as well well.
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: So I mean yesterday, you would have gone into yesterday's
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: getting figuring, Oh you got Logan Gilbert going and Gilbert
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: goes three nas. He doesn't really have any swinging miss stuff.
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: You get five swings and missiles on fifty eight pitches.
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: Guess to leaving the third. If you tell a Mariners
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: fan you're going to be tied in the excuse me
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: and the fourth and Gilbrok's going to be out of
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: the game. They're not going to be very happy about that.
• 21:44
  Speaker 5: And it turned out to be a laugher of a win.
• 21:46
  Speaker 5: So you know again, it's yeah, baseball's designed to be
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: evaluated at one hundred and sixty two games postseason. You
• 21:53
  Speaker 5: kind of just got to ride the wave.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Joe, What what did you see in Bryce Miller that
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: the box score didn't see?
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, this is let me get technical for a second.
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: There's a concept called iv B. When you and I
• 22:06
  Speaker 5: were watching baseball as kids, we would have talked about
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: a rising fastball, welerizing fastball doesn't exist. You can't throw
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: a ball upwards from a mound sixty feet away, but
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: there's an illusion that's created. And in recent years, with
• 22:17
  Speaker 5: all of the technology we have, we've been able to
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: quantify that illusion in a number called induced vertical break IVB,
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: and what it basically measures is the ball should be
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: here and this picture, through a combination of velocity and
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: releasing spin, has it up here. And if you watch
• 22:34
  Speaker 5: that game the other day, you saw Bryce Miller, who
• 22:36
  Speaker 5: has elite IVB. The best is like twenty he was
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: at nineteen the other day, or if he was at
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: nineteen and eighteen's a number like fourteens basebline seventeens average
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: above seventeen year league. Bryce Miller was delivering high fastballs
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: that looked like they were going to be lower in
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: the zone. And if you watch that game, Jays were
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: constantly swinging under the ball, they were popping it up,
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: they were hitting leak fly balls, they were swinging through
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: pitches to strike out. That's a skill that every pitcher
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: is chasing right now, that high IVB fastball. It enables
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: you to work up in the zone and fool the
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: batter into thinking even though your fastball's hittabily, your ninety
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: six is in today's game kind of you know the
• 23:13
  Speaker 5: buy in, But because it moves in a way that
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: hitter isn't expecting, that's that's what makes it effective. You know,
• 23:20
  Speaker 5: Miller I didn't even think he looked that good against
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: the Tigers, obviously in the second half. Came back from
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: the elbow injury, didn't look good at all in the
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: second half. He's only pitching because Brian lou injured his peck.
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: But he went out and he had he just pounded
• 23:32
  Speaker 5: that high IVB fastball through four of the pitches. And
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: you and I talked about him a lot earlier this year,
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: where he's got this really broad, great repertoire, and that
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: actually helps you working later in gage. The more pitches
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: you have, the better you'll be going the third time
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: to the lineup. So I expect him next year to
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: be a very strong pitcher again. But for the last
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: two starts, he's given me this Narritors exactly what they needed.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: Joshi Joshian dot Com, Joshian Newsletter. Let's talk nationally for
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: a second. A lot of America fans probably flipped over once
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: our game was done in Seattle, or actually in Toronto,
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: but done being here in Seattle, and maybe you're flipping
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: around money at football's on. You're like, oh, there's two
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: money at football games, and I'm exhausted from watching the
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: Mariners blow out the Jays. Oh how about this? The
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: NLCS is on. Oh we have a game all of
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: a sudden and a close game and it's a one
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: run game. My son has to do the same thing. He's like,
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: what are they doing right there? Why is Sasaki coming out?
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: And you're going to a thirty seven year old, maybe
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: borderline journeyman at this point. I'm not sure walk us
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: through for folks who didn't see it last night. Kind
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: of some drama in the Dodgers Brewers game.
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: In that ninth inning, we'll go back to the top
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: of the knight Pat Murphy second and third, two outs.
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: He potentially walks Shahiotani to pitch to Mookie Bets, which
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: Rob Thompson had done in the previous series. Avenue Rebey
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: walks Bets Forces in the second run. That's true not
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: to be an important insurance run, because at the bottom
• 24:51
  Speaker 5: of the beginning he goes to Sasaki to replay Splake Stell.
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: It was absolutely lightsile last night, eight shutouts. We've seen
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: Sasaki be exactly that good in the play. We saw
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: wipe out the Phillies last week, three perfect innings against them.
• 25:04
  Speaker 5: So he correctly goes to Sasaki. Saki gets to pop out,
• 25:07
  Speaker 5: then goes walk double sacrifice fly, and he gave the
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: two batted balls were hit very hard. He was having
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: trouble commanding, but even at that he's so far better
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: than the next option in that Dodger bullpen. I really
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: didn't think Roberts would take him out of the game.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: And I disagree with the decision to take him out
• 25:26
  Speaker 5: of the game because he went to play Trent, who
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: in the past has been an absolutely nasty slider monster.
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: He said by the stock the vras. He's won the championships,
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: but right now he's not a good pitcher. He had
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: an area of over eleven. It was twelve runs in
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: night innings. We'll let Andrews do the map on that
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: one in September, and then of course, you know, he
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: really blew the game Game two against the Phillies, came
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: in with a four nothing lead in the night, gave
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: three straight hits. Excuse before one leave the night give
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: three straight hits. Sasaki had to rescue him. Then, Trident
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: is not a good pitcher at this point. And even
• 25:57
  Speaker 5: if you look at last night, he didn't pitch well.
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: He walked in trail us and he almost walked Bryce
• 26:03
  Speaker 5: to Ray, swung in a pitch seventeen eighteen feet over
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: his head. He was swinging a lacrosse stick whatever they
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: call those things, to try to reach the pitch. He
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: got away with it. So it's one of those situations
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: where well it worked, but it wasn't a good decision,
• 26:16
  Speaker 5: and the fact that it worked doesn't really justify the decision.
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: I didn't and I think if it makes Roberts more
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: likely to use trying it in a big spot later
• 26:25
  Speaker 5: in the series, he's going to end up giving that
• 26:27
  Speaker 5: win back. So tough loss for the Bruise because you know,
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: they are the underdogs here. They were able to play
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: a close game. They had the tying run on third
• 26:34
  Speaker 5: and the ninth. That's a game you kind of had
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: to steal in a best of seven because there are
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: going to be a couple of games in the series
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: where the Dodgers just go, you know, for five to
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: nothing in the fifth and you're not going to have
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: a chance to win it. They had a chance to
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: win this one and they didn't. They didn't call it help.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: What's what's the big what's the big difference between these
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: two teams in terms of you know why you think
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers might have the advantage besides leading one.
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: Er right now?
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: Yeah, not to repeat my little material, but it's a
• 26:59
  Speaker 5: starting rotation. Remember the Brewers are down Brandon Woodriff, who
• 27:02
  Speaker 5: has been their ace for a long time. Miss twenty
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: four back in twenty five, it's very well, he's out
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: with a lat straight. Ryan Wu and Brandon Woodriff are
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: very similar. Here is at what is a pack? Can
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: I get them confused? But they're both out. They've both
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: been out for their teams and it's really been a
• 27:18
  Speaker 5: big had a big impact on the postseason. But without Woodriff,
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: the Ruers are now faking everything. They have one true
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: starter in Freddy Peralta, and then they're using openers and
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: they're using bullpen games trying to get the PACSI in
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: the twenty seven outs. The Dodgers aren't doing that. The
• 27:33
  Speaker 5: Dodgers did that last year. The Dodgers got through October
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: using openers and short starts and everything. This year they're
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: putting Snell, Yoshinova, Ya Moto Shoheio Tani, and Tyler Glasnow
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: on the mound and basically saying, go ahead and beat us.
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: Their four man rotation. So it's a six man rotation
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: and it seems out of the bullpen. Clayton Kursall's out
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: of the bullpen. The other four guys have basically been
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: untouchable since August since they they went to this six
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: man rotation in early August. The Dodgers' rotation has been
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: the best in based off and we've seen that in
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: this posting. Yamamoto had one shaky start and the rest
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: of the time, the Dodger starters are just blowing people away.
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: So the Brewers, like say, the Brewers play really good ball,
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: the good defensively, they make miracle plays bouncing off the
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: wall turning into double plays. They have some power. It's
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: not if they have no power, but they're really trying
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: to win these games three two, two, one four three.
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: I don't think they're going to be able to win
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: games if they've got to score five and six runs
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: against this Dodger staff. That's the big difference. Dodgers are
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: just from inning one through inning six are just shoving
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: monsters starting pitching Joe.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: One week from today, we'll either be talking about a
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: preview of the World Series for us here in Seattle,
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: which I believe will be doing. They'll be after either that,
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: or we'll be talking after a Game seven disappointment. But
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: I have a feeling we'll be talking about either the
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: Brewers or the Dodgers in much greater length. So until then,
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: for folks who want to and this is a good time, boy,
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: no better time to subscribe to the Joshan news Letter
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: than right now. In baseball, fans matter fans, How can
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: they do so?
• 28:58

• 29:09

  Speaker 5: I had them as the second best team in baseball
• 29:24
  Speaker 5: coming out of the trade deadline, and that looks like
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: it's going to hold up here for another couple of weeks.

  Speaker 7: that's never happened before. And for Dave Neehouse to say,
• 30:42
  Speaker 7: bringing to Rye for at Grandma because this World Series time,
• 30:46
  Speaker 7: I would say, I'm feeling all those Mariners were feeling
• 30:50
  Speaker 7: doing some of the slowest home run across seen.
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: And I'm excited my eighty five year old grandmother.
• 31:00

  Speaker 2: In the midday ten to one here on nine three
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: point three k TERRFM, he had Carl Ravitch on yesterday.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: Who's calling the games on the radio on ESPN Radio.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: If you have like Serious XM or just the app,
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: you can get it. He's with Eduardo Perez Junior, former manner.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: By the way, and Carl and Tim Kirchen and it's awesome,
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: actually a really good broadcast. So if you find yourself
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: not buy a television, those guys do a great job
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: on ESPN Radio. And no we're not even in the
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: ESPN radio affiliate that went away well.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: A few years ago.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: But I can tell you this, Carl did a great job,
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: and hearing him with MJ yesterday was really good. I
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: listened about it at forty five. I had three innings
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: of it yesterday driving home after we got off the air.
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: And Carl and those guys did a great Jeb Kirchen
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: I just have a hard time with because I hear
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: him and I just I think I think him. I
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: always think of him on with the gas Man. He
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: was on with the gas Man for years and years,
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: Okay gas Man, It's just oh, I just I keep
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: hearing that back in the background. All right, we's gotta
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: got more. Let's go a couple more talk.
• 32:11
  Speaker 8: Wow, what can I say? Live in the dream. Been
• 32:13
  Speaker 8: waiting for this for way way too long. Whether it's
• 32:16
  Speaker 8: two o'clock start, five o'clock start, the day can't go
• 32:20
  Speaker 8: fast enough before first pitch, as always go, Hawks still
• 32:25
  Speaker 8: go Koog's let's go do work and let's get this
• 32:29
  Speaker 8: done and always suck at LUTs.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: I don't know who that guy is. I want to
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: meet him. To me, I have met him. That's the
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: thing is like, you never know. Maybe I've met that.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: If I've met you, I'd love.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: To know who you are, because that guy cracks me
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: up when we do the talkbacks along the way. Yeah, yeah,
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: the start times we know this five five thirty three
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: o'clock or the next three coming up.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: I don't know if we're going to get to three.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: I think we're going to get to the next two
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: and be done with it, I truly, and then have
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: a week off. Yeah, it's gonna hapen, all right, We've
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: got a couple more Justice.
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: I can't believe how at peace.
• 33:03
  Speaker 9: I am been watching this team since their inception in
• 33:06
  Speaker 9: eighteen seventy seven, and I've been wound tight more times
• 33:10
  Speaker 9: than I can count in my entire life. But after
• 33:14
  Speaker 9: that three run shot by Polanco, I really felt like
• 33:19
  Speaker 9: we're just going to win the whole thing. The Dodgers
• 33:21
  Speaker 9: will not know what hit them. Okay, So at Peace
• 33:26
  Speaker 9: and I am never that way, Okay, Scott and Paul Scott.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: Hey, Scott, Sorry I stepped on you twice the okay, Scott,
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: just Scott is me and I just saw a tweet
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: from Softi's he's just losing his He'll.
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: Be on it too.
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: He's he's a wound a little tight right now.
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: He's just an absolute disaster right now.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: I've Scott. I feel the same way, and I'm never
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: like that. I'm just that's not my fandom. I'm I
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: would I was. I mentioned this to Jess and you
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: guys at the start of the show today. I felt
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: a little more stressed about the seahawks final five minutes
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: against Jacksonville than I did most of the time yesterday.
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: When they tied it up.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: At three, I'm like, uh, okay, this isn't good, but
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: we got the one already, so whatever, you come home
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: soself have a chance to win it. I think, Scott,
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: you're right When when Polanco hit that and I initially
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: didn't think it had enough to get out, and it's like, whoa, Okay,
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: three runs. At that point in time, I'm like, game over.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: There's no chance this team's going to come back and
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: score three again, much less four to win it. Against
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: Seattle's pitching at that point, and that proved to be
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: the case. That's the cool thing about fandom. Everyone feels differently,
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: Everyone has a different set of emotions. My normal fallback
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: way to be treating things right now would be just
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: to be losing my mind and stressed out. I think
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: that they're just that much better that My only thing
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: is what happens next year, our next, next, the next series,
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: I should say, next series?
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: All right, Jess, one more? All right, here we go.
• 35:04
  Speaker 9: Well, I feel great about the ms being in.
• 35:08
  Speaker 6: Possibly I just cannot tempt fate.
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: So I will grin when they're in Gritten when they're
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: in I like that.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: I like grin when they're in Grin when they're in
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: That might be our guy coming up.
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: In just a couple of minutes.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: How do you feel, Jess? You know you have to
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: cover it, so it's a little different. Like you're in
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: the clubhouse and you're you're in the press conferences. It's
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: a little bit different for you because you're truly working
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: media for this series. You and beck Anders are working media.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: But I've gotten to know this team for the past
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: sixteen years, and that goes beyond the field. It goes
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: to you know those who I've seen work so hard
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: to make this thing happen. And I know that you
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: guys were talking during Mollybob, how you watch the game,
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: who you were with and everything, and I was I
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: was driving from Memphis to and my husband's on the
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: phone with me, looking up random radio stations from Memphis
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: and tracking me and telling me the next radio station
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: I could listen to when I got to the next town,
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: because it was two hour drive from Memphis to Tupelo,
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: where we were staying. Then I got there in the
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: sixth inning and we stayed on the speaker phone. I
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: had just had it sitting on my chest and watched
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: the game together. That's how into this team we both are.
• 36:21
  Speaker 4: And now Mike, who's you know, grew up a Red
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: Sox fan, He's into it too. And I don't think
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: that you had to grow up a fan of this team.
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: I've gotten to know them. I am extremely emotional about it,
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: just from a different perspective.
• 36:35
  Speaker 5: And I'm happy.
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: I'm just happy for the city.
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: I'm happy for everything.
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I'm really, I'm really, I'm just I'm thrilled.
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: For the city.
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: And I say and when I say city, I mean,
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: the region is what is how I should point out.
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna do something a little differently tomorrow.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: We're gonna check in not with enemy territory, but friendly
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: Canadian territory tomorrow, I do believe.
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: Okay. So yeah, yeah, you like that. I like that.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: I like that a lot. I think I'm gonna do
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: that coming up tomorrow. I like it.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: All right, We're done for a completely different emotional take.
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: Dave Softy mall along with Richard L. Faine. Is he
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: crying right now? How is he? Is he gonna be okay?
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: He looks like he might be.
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: Okay. I know I've got to go. I've got to go.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, I have work to do here at the
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: TV studio.
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: So he's gonna be okay, right, He's he's fine. Dick
• 37:34
  Speaker 4: Faine is in the studio as well. Richila l is here.
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: Okay, good, all right, Dave soft Tomorrow, Richard el Faine
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: coming up next to ye
