0:11
Speaker 1: Milwaukee the lead.

Speaker 3: Yeah and now the Brewers are up one nothing and
0:21
Speaker 3: that just Keeps amplifying the pressure on these Padres.
0:24
Speaker 1: Ashby weaves and misses at a breaking ball. Nasty stuff
0:28
Speaker 1: from Gasser. Tatis hits one on the ground towards Pratt
0:31
Speaker 1: who dives and snares it. Stands and throws to get Tatis.
0:35
Speaker 1: It's been a roller coaster ride, but the peaks have
0:39
Speaker 1: been very impressive for Pratt on defense in this set.
0:42
Speaker 1: 11 outs left for Milwaukee to advance to the league
0:46
Speaker 1: championship series for a second straight year.
0:49
Speaker 2: Back to Ashby.
0:51
Speaker 1: As easy as one, four, three, double play.
0:54
Speaker 2: And the nephew of.
0:55
Speaker 1: The longtime Padre with two excellent innings for this excellent
1:00
Speaker 1: Milwaukee Penn. Bogarts first pitch, Pratt backhand. His counterpart slings
1:05
Speaker 1: it in time for the first down.
1:07
Speaker 2: That was a cannon.
1:08
Speaker 3: That was a good play right there. You want to
1:10
Speaker 3: know how you can tell if a guy's a big
1:12
Speaker 3: league shortstop? This play and this throw. He gets it,
1:15
Speaker 3: sets his feet, and just.
1:17
Speaker 2: That's missile. Bowen goes.
1:19
Speaker 4: Pulled.
1:20
Speaker 2: Strike three. Got him. Takes a swing. Sends it out
1:26
Speaker 2: to center.
1:27
Speaker 1: Mitchell back.
1:33
Speaker 2: That was the Adam Jones WBC. Remember that one? That's
1:39
Speaker 2: almost the same spot. He crushed one in.
1:44
Speaker 1: The WBC for the Dominican Republic and Adam Jones took
1:49
Speaker 1: a homer away. This time it's Mitchell in the 2026 playoffs.
1:53
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness.
1:55
Speaker 2: That's a homer. Seven's not.
1:58
Speaker 1: Garrett Mitchell said, no, sir!
2:01
Speaker 2: Tough spot.
2:02
Speaker 1: Terrain is there as Powers hit the deck, and Terrain
2:07
Speaker 1: makes the catch in foul territory. Jacob Mizorowski has picked
2:11
Speaker 1: up a baseball just in case.
2:14
Speaker 2: He struck him out!
2:17
Speaker 1: And baseball's best team takes its step to the Final Four.
2:22
Speaker 1: The Milwaukee Brewers are right back in the National League
2:25
Speaker 1: Championship Series. They made the plays and they made the
2:30
Speaker 1: pitches when it mattered most. Trevor McGill slams the door
2:35
Speaker 1: and the 103 wind brewers are headed back to the
2:40
Speaker 1: national league championship series where they will play for the
2:43
Speaker 1: pennant against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
2:51
Speaker 2: Oh, let's celebrate. It's one of those 10% days. Doesn't
2:57
Speaker 2: suck to be a fan today. It's actually pretty sweet.
3:00
Speaker 2: Let's enjoy it. Welcome into the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin,
3:04
Speaker 2: 920 Milwaukee, 1070 Madison, everywhere on the iHeart app, streaming
3:07
Speaker 2: live on Facebook X and YouTube. Drew Olson, Bill Schmid,
3:11
Speaker 2: Armin Sarian, Brewers. Moving on to the National League Championship Series.
3:16
Speaker 2: We've got time to catch our breath and get ready. For, oh,
3:21
Speaker 2: you know, this tiny little game on Sunday evening with
3:23
Speaker 2: Miz versus Scooble. Let's get it. Can the Brewers get retribution?
3:28
Speaker 2: Can they break through and continue the joy ride that
3:31
Speaker 2: has been the 2026 season? Welcome in, everybody. Five o'clock lovers.
3:36
Speaker 2: Everybody stay up till the end of the game.
3:39
Speaker 5: Um, if you count the, what I was trying to
3:41
Speaker 5: make a minute and a half interval naps in between
3:44
Speaker 5: the commercial breaks, uh, staying up until the end of
3:47
Speaker 5: the game, then yes. And a little bit more post
3:50
Speaker 5: game than I care to admit, but yeah, it was
3:53
Speaker 5: right around the sixth inning where I realized drew him. Like,
3:55
Speaker 5: it's just, this is just going to be one of
3:57
Speaker 5: those times. So I'm just going to try to steal
3:59
Speaker 5: as many minutes as possible.
4:02
Speaker 3: Yes.
4:02
Speaker 5: Get into the rehab like Caleb Williams was right away.
4:05
Speaker 5: I'm getting into the rehab right away and celebrate. We
4:09
Speaker 5: can and celebrate with cool in the gang. Indeed.
4:11
Speaker 2: Nothing. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Sleep was kind of an
4:14
Speaker 2: abstract notion. I was down.
4:16
Speaker 6: I was sleeping like and then waking up and then
4:19
Speaker 6: sleeping and waking up like as my phone kept buzzing
4:23
Speaker 6: from all the group texts I had and all that,
4:25
Speaker 6: you know, because I have it on sound, but still
4:26
Speaker 6: on vibrate because I can't totally unplug.
4:29
Speaker 2: And then it was finally I was up to two.
4:32
Speaker 6: Confirming what I thought was true based on all the
4:35
Speaker 6: evidence I had that we had one. And then I
4:38
Speaker 6: was just been up since then. Cause I, you know,
4:39
Speaker 6: I had to be involved in everything. You're popping away.
4:43
Speaker 2: You're right. You're drifting off. Like my wife at one point,
4:46
Speaker 2: she looked at me like two 15, two 30. Are
4:48
Speaker 2: you checking your phone to see if the birds want like, no,
4:50
Speaker 2: I know they won. I'm just checking. I'm just consuming
4:55
Speaker 2: the other stuff. Cause I just like, I'm, you know,
4:58
Speaker 2: I'm in this, like you said, sleeping in 10 minute, uh,
5:01
Speaker 2: you know, 10 minute blocks, deep breath. How can you sleep?
5:05
Speaker 6: I just, I could have slept if I was like, relax,
5:10
Speaker 6: but I can't relax in that situation.
5:12
Speaker 2: Knowing we're in the situation. It's one, nothing. So one, one,
5:15
Speaker 2: I got to check my focus. Now I'm going to sleep.
5:16
Speaker 5: Yeah.
5:17
Speaker 1: Right.
5:17
Speaker 6: Like it ain't going to happen. Like I did find
5:19
Speaker 6: myself dozing off at points. Cause I'm like, Oh, an
5:22
Speaker 6: inning passed, you know? So it's just too much excitement,
5:26
Speaker 6: too much excitement to go get it done in San
5:28
Speaker 6: Diego in game four.
5:29
Speaker 2: We're right back to where we were last year, Brewers-Dodgers,
5:32
Speaker 2: for the right to go to the World Series. And
5:34
Speaker 2: it opens in Milwaukee. And, you know. Third time's a charm.
5:40
Speaker 2: And now we got something for them, I think. Yeah,
5:42
Speaker 2: we got something for them. We got something for them,
5:44
Speaker 2: I hope. I mean, the Padres had something for the Brewers.
5:46
Speaker 2: These games were razor-thin close. Great games. And I had
5:50
Speaker 2: an overarching thought last evening, as the moment we'll all
5:53
Speaker 2: remember from this game. KD's foot was on the line,
5:57
Speaker 2: and Manny Machado's ball was two feet too short. Oh,
5:59
Speaker 2: my goodness.
6:00
Speaker 5: That's all right. That call right there is perfect. Oh,
6:04
Speaker 5: my God, it's a homer, but it wasn't. Yeah, Adam Wainwright,
6:07
Speaker 5: the pitcher.
6:07
Speaker 2: No, it wasn't. It didn't go out. He caught it.
6:09
Speaker 2: It didn't go out. Sorry. I have a deeper question.
6:13
Speaker 2: Maybe we'll get to.
6:14
Speaker 6: But if he hadn't caught that, which, you know, he
6:16
Speaker 6: had a beat on it, so I was like, I
6:18
Speaker 6: think he'll get it.
6:19
Speaker 2: Would it have been fan interference? But we'll get to
6:21
Speaker 2: that maybe more.
6:21
Speaker 6: Well, maybe.
6:22
Speaker 2: Because they touched the glove. They were all over it.
6:25
Speaker 6: Yeah.
6:25
Speaker 2: But it was, um, that's one of those moments, man,
6:28
Speaker 2: just game of inches. And does anybody think if Manny Machado, uh,
6:34
Speaker 2: if that ball goes out and they tie the game there.
6:37
Speaker 2: we're playing game five tomorrow night, right? Don't you think?
6:40
Speaker 2: I mean, you sure feel like that. I mean, anything
6:43
Speaker 2: can happen and we'll never know. It sure would have
6:46
Speaker 2: seemed like, Oh boy.
6:47
Speaker 5: Because it's hard to come back from those swings. And
6:51
Speaker 5: two in one game is a damn near impossible to
6:54
Speaker 5: be able to withstand. And drew the way that they
6:57
Speaker 5: had gotten it through. The second time through for Tatis,
7:03
Speaker 5: for Gasser, I was wondering how much more you were
7:06
Speaker 5: going to ask of him, and then they just continued
7:08
Speaker 5: to roll it because big game Bob was able to
7:11
Speaker 5: shove you for four and then hand it off to Ashby,
7:13
Speaker 5: which apparently is just.
7:16
Speaker 2: That's just the game plan.
7:17
Speaker 5: Poor Chad Patrick's just sitting out in the bullpens and
7:20
Speaker 5: I'm waiting and I'm getting it. I'm ready to get hot. Instead,
7:22
Speaker 5: they didn't need him. And I wondered what and when
7:27
Speaker 5: they may... make the move, but they give up one
7:32
Speaker 5: hit after the Tatis Homer would have been another one.
7:37
Speaker 2: I'm with you.
7:38
Speaker 5: You absolutely could have played it too. Right after you
7:41
Speaker 5: could have very much responded. I think the team has
7:44
Speaker 5: given you a lot of confidence in to believe that
7:46
Speaker 5: they would, but I also would have made a lot
7:48
Speaker 5: of plans coming up for Friday night because I think
7:50
Speaker 5: we would have had one.
7:51
Speaker 2: If that wasn't that gets over the glove, I.
7:53
Speaker 6: Just think it's reasonable to think that, you know, when
7:54
Speaker 6: you tie a game at home like that, in that fashion,
7:57
Speaker 6: that you're probably in a better position to go ahead
8:00
Speaker 6: and win that game.
8:01
Speaker 2: Like you said, we'll never know, but yeah, that's reasonable
8:03
Speaker 2: to think. I think we all would have felt that way,
8:05
Speaker 2: but Brewers did put pressure on most of the night offensively.
8:08
Speaker 2: It's going to be, you know, this year feels different,
8:11
Speaker 2: and yeah, it's the same teams, the same home field advantage,
8:14
Speaker 2: same format. However, the Brewers had to play the Friday night.
8:20
Speaker 2: They had to play the game five, and meanwhile, the
8:23
Speaker 2: Dodgers were all rested, had their pitching all lined up
8:25
Speaker 2: and everything, and now Everybody's rested the same. Everybody's going
8:29
Speaker 2: to be on the same even field. And you're going
8:32
Speaker 2: to get Scooble and Snell against Miz and Henderson. Let's go. Yeah,
8:36
Speaker 2: and you're going to get your guys at home.
8:38
Speaker 5: And again, this is why as much as the 2-3-2
8:42
Speaker 5: format went down 0-2 last year, I was able to
8:45
Speaker 5: convince myself being the road team is actually the better way.
8:48
Speaker 5: This is why, as Murph said, this is why you
8:51
Speaker 5: struggled in the regular season to win the home field,
8:54
Speaker 5: to get four chances at home. Because whatever the super
8:57
Speaker 5: special stat that they wanted to continue to hammer home
9:00
Speaker 5: last night of now seven and 23 on the road
9:03
Speaker 5: in the playoffs. Show me the team that's got a
9:05
Speaker 5: winning playoff record on the road. Yeah, it's probably not.
9:08
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
9:08
Speaker 5: I don't know that there's a whole lot, if any,
9:10
Speaker 5: that are going to be great on the road.
9:13
Speaker 2: But this is why you end up doing it. The
9:16
Speaker 2: bar is set pretty low beginning on Sunday night last
9:19
Speaker 2: year in the four games the Brewers lost getting swept
9:21
Speaker 2: by the Dodgers. They led. at the end of one
9:24
Speaker 2: inning in four games. It's going to be better this
9:27
Speaker 2: time around, I feel it. Yeah, and I have a
9:29
Speaker 2: good feeling about it. I think game one's.
9:31
Speaker 5: Going to be better, most importantly, because I think we're
9:33
Speaker 5: going to get more action instead of just in the
9:35
Speaker 5: ninth inning.
9:35
Speaker 2: You've got a rested bullpen, you've got a rested starting staff,
9:38
Speaker 2: and both teams pretty much steamrolled. I mean, close games, sure,
9:42
Speaker 2: but the Brewers gave up a 181 average to the Padres.
9:48
Speaker 2: They gave up two homers and 10 runs. Goodness gracious.
9:51
Speaker 2: In four games. And that wasn't their best defensive effort.
9:54
Speaker 2: And they weren't playing leaky defense. Yeah, far from it.
9:56
Speaker 2: Great plays, but also errors. The thing is, the Dodgers
9:59
Speaker 2: gave up. a 145 average, two homers, and eight runs
10:02
Speaker 2: in four games. So this pitching is at a premium. Yeah,
10:06
Speaker 2: the Brewers did. They made a lot of mistakes that
10:09
Speaker 2: were shocking, but they overcame them.
10:12
Speaker 6: Yeah, the imperfections is actually what makes it so thrilling
10:16
Speaker 6: and so interesting.
10:18
Speaker 2: I mean, This time of year, these things are going
10:20
Speaker 2: to happen. You have good on good.
10:21
Speaker 6: Everyone's putting pressure on each other, so sometimes it does
10:24
Speaker 6: burst the pipe, but if you can overcome them, and
10:27
Speaker 6: I think also with the offense, granted, not scoring necessarily
10:30
Speaker 6: a lot of runs, crooked numbers, enough to win, but
10:33
Speaker 6: not a lot, but constant pressure on the Padres. Hits, walks,
10:38
Speaker 6: another double-digit hit night for the Brewers. Yes, no homers,
10:41
Speaker 6: but they did get a couple extra base hits. They
10:44
Speaker 6: got the job done in that sense. I think the
10:46
Speaker 6: Brewers have confidence that they're going to be able to
10:48
Speaker 6: put rallies together a lot of innings. Whether or not
10:50
Speaker 6: they score is going to be the next question, but
10:52
Speaker 6: hopefully that confidence and momentum Goes into the next series,
10:56
Speaker 6: which you know what Scooble can do. And I understand
10:59
Speaker 6: what Snell did, you know, but they Yamamoto is probably their.
11:02
Speaker 2: Best pitcher right now.
11:03
Speaker 6: And pretty much so they're going to, it's obviously going
11:06
Speaker 6: to be, if you're going to make this, if you're
11:08
Speaker 6: going to make this happen, you have to go through
11:09
Speaker 6: the wall and the most toughest of circumstances.
11:12
Speaker 2: But it will be rewarding when we do it. Indeed. Indeed.
11:15
Speaker 2: Hit us up, 877-794-1973, nicolaylaw.com, talk and text. I'm going
11:20
Speaker 2: to be basking in the glow. This is the first
11:22
Speaker 2: half of our doubleheader on Thursday. Come on now. Our
11:26
Speaker 2: last doubleheader on Thursday. If you missed the memo, it's
11:29
Speaker 2: our last week as a morning program for you. The
11:31
Speaker 2: 5 o'clock club will shutter its doors until, well, we'll see.
11:37
Speaker 2: But 5 o'clock club will no longer exist on Monday
11:39
Speaker 2: when we move from 2 to 5. But tonight will
11:41
Speaker 2: be a Pottawatomie sportsbook in the annex. We'll be having
11:45
Speaker 2: a great time getting ready for Buccaneers Cowboys. Okay, I'm
11:50
Speaker 2: glad you knew it.
11:50
Speaker 5: I was actually just going to look at it because, Drew,
11:52
Speaker 5: I'm glad that we're able now just to clear the deck.
11:56
Speaker 2: For the next couple of days. Baseball's on hold. Baseball
11:58
Speaker 2: on hold. Well, I mean, baseball, our baseball on hold.
12:01
Speaker 2: Our baseball on hold. But, you know, the excitement will build.
12:04
Speaker 5: But now there's a little bit of runway where we
12:06
Speaker 5: can give some just dessert and the credit and the
12:09
Speaker 5: due that Packers and Bears deserve. And tonight we will
12:12
Speaker 5: talk a lot about the oldest rivalry in matchup 214
12:15
Speaker 5: between the two teams. But I'm excited for always to
12:20
Speaker 5: be at Pottawatomie. But most importantly, excited to now be
12:23
Speaker 5: able to get a first little look and what the
12:25
Speaker 5: series lines.
12:26
Speaker 2: Are looking like. There you go. Brewers and Dodgers. I
12:29
Speaker 2: know that place.
12:30
Speaker 5: Is going to be the spot on Sunday for NFL
12:34
Speaker 5: Sunday in the sports book. Sublime a Brewers post-season game,
12:37
Speaker 5: taking the shuttle from Pottawatomie sports book, hard to beat
12:41
Speaker 5: them two together in one.
12:43
Speaker 2: That's a Sunday that you're going to remember. And I
12:44
Speaker 2: checked that, too.
12:45
Speaker 6: There's no serious market posted yet, but I'm assuming by
12:47
Speaker 6: tonight the left side.
12:47
Speaker 2: You got Cowboys, Buccaneers tonight, but you also got White Sox,
12:51
Speaker 2: Guardians in an elimination game. Again, take two as the
12:54
Speaker 2: White Sox try to close things out and celebrate at
12:56
Speaker 2: home for the first time in 120 years. That side
12:58
Speaker 2: of the bracket, Yankees vanquished. Dodgers, Brewers, if you get
13:03
Speaker 2: through this, you're either going to face Cleveland, the White Sox,
13:08
Speaker 2: or the Rays. Bring it.
13:10
Speaker 5: Yeah, which, I mean, again... Those teams could beat the Brewers, but...
13:13
Speaker 5: Very much so. And the Rays are probably the team
13:17
Speaker 5: that doesn't get nearly enough credit for as good as
13:18
Speaker 5: they were throughout the year because people just wanted to
13:21
Speaker 5: mostly talk about them.
13:21
Speaker 2: They're very Brewers-like. Very Brewers-like, but the Brewers would be
13:26
Speaker 2: a little look ahead here.
13:27
Speaker 5: They'd be a favorite in any series they play other
13:30
Speaker 5: than the one against the Dodgers, right? So this is
13:33
Speaker 5: what you earn. This is why you do it. And
13:36
Speaker 5: the Scooble matchup to start game one... it just writes
13:41
Speaker 5: itself on the narrative. So I would have almost liked
13:43
Speaker 5: it even better if you would have pitched game to
13:45
Speaker 5: just head to head against Henderson.
13:47
Speaker 2: Just for the story. We saw that in LA, right?
13:50
Speaker 2: But hard to Google and Henderson went against each other,
13:52
Speaker 2: didn't they? Yeah.
13:52
Speaker 1: Right.
13:53
Speaker 6: What?
13:53
Speaker 5: Like two or three weeks after the, after the deadline
13:55
Speaker 5: it was in the wild. So they write themselves and
13:59
Speaker 5: to now get your third crack at it in 2018,
14:01
Speaker 5: because we're going to clamp them all together. You get
14:05
Speaker 5: an opportunity to, to run through one more time. That
14:08
Speaker 5: group is as good as advertised. Murph mentioned it last night.
14:11
Speaker 5: I know we're going to hear a ton of the
14:13
Speaker 5: audio today that Hunter grabbed. It's like, yeah, for sure.
14:17
Speaker 5: All-star team at every position. But teams win. Teams win.
14:22
Speaker 5: And that was a team victory last night, especially when
14:24
Speaker 5: your bullpen's able to roll that well.
14:26
Speaker 2: No question.
14:27
Speaker 6: Ashby probably, it might be his magnum opus. I mean,
14:30
Speaker 6: that was probably the best performance of all.
14:32
Speaker 2: Of his career. I hope he'll have more.
14:34
Speaker 6: But to come through, to perform the way he did
14:36
Speaker 6: with three innings in the heart of that team, the
14:38
Speaker 6: heart of that order, in the biggest moments, the biggest game,
14:40
Speaker 6: that was awesome.
14:42
Speaker 2: See, that's the thing, though. Baseball, every moment is big.
14:44
Speaker 2: If Bobby Gasser doesn't get out of that first inning
14:46
Speaker 2: jam with the bases loaded, that game goes a different way,
14:49
Speaker 2: and we're probably thinking about Friday night. And we talked about, okay,
14:54
Speaker 2: Cheerios at-bat is one that people are going to remember
14:56
Speaker 2: for the rest of their born days. They're going to
14:59
Speaker 2: remember that at-bat Sunday. that Churrio battling Mason Miller. Well,
15:04
Speaker 2: in the third inning last night, Sal Freelick pulled a
15:06
Speaker 2: full-on Cirillo. And I need to text the icon today.
15:10
Speaker 2: I love this, yes. Because he's down 0-2 against Walker Buehler.
15:14
Speaker 2: And it's like, oh, well, nothing's happened in this inning.
15:17
Speaker 2: Fouls off three pitches, takes three balls, gets an infield hit,
15:21
Speaker 2: steals second, and scores the first run. Big ups to Sal.
15:24
Speaker 2: What's more Brewers than that? And that at bat. It
15:27
Speaker 2: ends up setting the tone and giving you the lead
15:29
Speaker 2: and giving you a cushion in an elimination game when
15:31
Speaker 2: you're trying to step on their necks. That at-bat is huge,
15:34
Speaker 2: and that at-bat is what the Brewers do. And it's
15:37
Speaker 2: what he does. He's a fighter. I get that sometimes, but, man,
15:40
Speaker 2: he's had an amazing series. He was hurt a lot
15:43
Speaker 2: of this year. He watched Lara take his spot. He
15:45
Speaker 2: didn't bitch and moan. He just sat there. And then
15:47
Speaker 2: Murph's like, well, we're going. You're in there. He's been
15:49
Speaker 2: in the middle of everything they've done this post.
15:52
Speaker 5: Season yeah you look at the numbers that he had
15:54
Speaker 5: in the series he was one of their most consistent
15:56
Speaker 5: guys and most consistent at bats true yeah and then the.
15:58
Speaker 2: Guys you want to bury you know mitchell and bowers
16:01
Speaker 2: like how's he playing these guys gotta get rid of
16:02
Speaker 2: them i gotta play lara you gotta get here get on.
16:04
Speaker 5: In there so the favor and go look at yesterday's
16:06
Speaker 5: lineup tweet that the uh the brewers put out if
16:09
Speaker 5: you want to go and enjoy some cold takes are
16:11
Speaker 5: us it's just so poetic though because it's a good
16:14
Speaker 5: reminder it's like and we don't know what's gonna happen
16:16
Speaker 5: i get that.
16:17
Speaker 2: All the time like the the you know Why are
16:19
Speaker 2: they conceding the game? You see it all the time
16:22
Speaker 2: on the Sunday lineups or the getaway day, the Wednesday line,
16:25
Speaker 2: when Sanchez is playing people. That's always cracked me up.
16:30
Speaker 5: The baseball one, though, was it Bobby Cox or Gar
16:33
Speaker 5: told Drew that you're ready to send a guy down,
16:37
Speaker 5: when you're ready to be done with somebody, you never
16:39
Speaker 5: want to look at him again.
16:41
Speaker 2: Give him another 10 days.
16:42
Speaker 5: And for Murph, as he mentioned, him and Mitchell sit down,
16:46
Speaker 5: and he's like, I got something different for him today.
16:48
Speaker 2: I got a different plan. He goes, okay, bro. Sounds good.
16:51
Speaker 2: You're going in there. You're playing. You're playing.
16:53
Speaker 5: So I'm glad you got a plan because we're going
16:56
Speaker 5: with you again.
16:57
Speaker 2: Does anybody else catch that ball at the wall? The
16:59
Speaker 2: jump he got and the way he got back there?
17:02
Speaker 2: I mean, Lara might, but Churio has been playing left
17:05
Speaker 2: a lot. I don't know, man. But not as tall
17:08
Speaker 2: as Garrett, right?
17:09
Speaker 5: I would say it would be a question mark because
17:11
Speaker 5: I don't know that Lara is able to get the
17:13
Speaker 5: and one.
17:13
Speaker 2: Yeah.
17:14
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know that he's able to go
17:15
Speaker 5: through the contact in the land of the Giants. I
17:18
Speaker 5: didn't know that he was going to have to go
17:19
Speaker 5: in through Wemba and Yama to be able to make
17:21
Speaker 5: the catch. He's got the Spider-Man. He's wiry, but.
17:26
Speaker 2: I don't know.
17:26
Speaker 5: If that was going to, I didn't know if that
17:28
Speaker 5: tweet was going to play last night. Cause again, I'm
17:30
Speaker 5: bleary eyed in the midst of it.
17:32
Speaker 2: I wanted, well, I didn't know.
17:33
Speaker 5: Cause like I deleted it or I didn't delete it.
17:35
Speaker 5: I discarded it. I was like typing something out. I
17:37
Speaker 5: wanted to say, my man gets an and one, like,
17:40
Speaker 5: are we going to get a free throw on this
17:41
Speaker 5: with the contact that Mitchell has.
17:43
Speaker 2: As they're clearly hitting his glove? One of the biggest
17:46
Speaker 2: plays of the year backdrop of at the same time,
17:49
Speaker 2: like it's almost like ball hits the roof in Milwaukee
17:51
Speaker 2: ball hits the roof in Tampa. Yeah, Volpe home run,
17:54
Speaker 2: not a homer. Mitchell, not a homer.
17:56
Speaker 5: Not a homer.
17:57
Speaker 3: Oh, boy.
17:58
Speaker 2: Twice in a night. Man, it was... Yeah, that picture
18:01
Speaker 2: of Mitchell making that catch, I mean, that's a low
18:03
Speaker 2: fence and everything, but you're among the unwashed out there.
18:07
Speaker 2: That's art. That's almost like they were shooting... That is art.
18:10
Speaker 2: That's the hang it in the loo. And that is
18:11
Speaker 2: how close the Padres came to winning that game, forcing
18:15
Speaker 2: a game five, and then it's take your chances, so...
18:17
Speaker 2: Brewers are rolling on. We're off and running. Hunter's going
18:20
Speaker 2: to join us on his way back. I'm sure he's
18:22
Speaker 2: bleary-eyed and has no sleep and probably smells of champagne.
18:25
Speaker 2: He left the park two hours ago. He texted me.
18:27
Speaker 2: He left the park two hours ago. By the way,
18:28
Speaker 2: the Brewers, man, everything they do, the little details, the clubbies,
18:32
Speaker 2: Dan Larea, Jason Schager, Tony Migliaccio, they're so dialed in.
18:37
Speaker 2: Did you see that the bottles of champagne, 191? Oh, yes.
18:40
Speaker 2: One for each city in the state of Wisconsin. Oh, yes.
18:44
Speaker 2: Look at that. I saw that. Danny Larea, he's taking
18:47
Speaker 2: the Mequon bottle home because he lives in Mequon. So
18:49
Speaker 2: it's like every bottle. And they travel with a flag.
18:52
Speaker 2: I was going to say with the flag with all
18:54
Speaker 2: of the cities. And every visiting clubhouse with every city.
18:57
Speaker 6: Oh, that hit me right in the feels when I
18:59
Speaker 6: saw that.
18:59
Speaker 2: I knew it would. But that's the way the brewers roll.
19:01
Speaker 2: They do stuff like that, man.
19:03
Speaker 6: Who's getting the Racine one? I hope they send that
19:05
Speaker 6: to everybody that voted against George P-Tech.
19:06
Speaker 2: George P-Tech 31 years ago or whatever the other day.
19:10
Speaker 2: Armand Zarian is fired up. Or give it to Vinny
19:12
Speaker 2: Rattino because he's from Racine. I was going to say
19:15
Speaker 2: that might be a Vinny one. Let's be positive.
19:16
Speaker 5: Armand not only has the personalized on, my man got
19:20
Speaker 5: the we are going and knocking out the freaking L.A.
19:23
Speaker 2: Dodgers. Back in the NLCS, Glazers this morning.
19:26
Speaker 6: Oh, yes.
19:27
Speaker 2: And I was there so early. That's when you know
19:28
Speaker 2: it's a good thing. That's when you know. I would
19:30
Speaker 2: have got chicken.
19:30
Speaker 6: I don't think the old boy there working at whatever
19:33
Speaker 6: time I was there was making chicken, though, up yet.
19:35
Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Probably not, yeah.
19:37
Speaker 6: That's a big ask, even for a quick trip. I mean,
19:39
Speaker 6: at that time of the day. But, yeah, we got Glazers.
19:41
Speaker 2: Victory Glazers. Victory Glazers. We're enjoying it today. All right.
19:44
Speaker 2: Let's have some fun today, shall we? We will talk
19:46
Speaker 2: about the Packers and the Bears. We've got a huddle tonight.
19:50
Speaker 2: We can talk baseball at the huddle, the Thursday night huddle.
19:52
Speaker 2: There's not a lot that says we can't. We're allowed to. Because, yeah,
19:55
Speaker 2: it's going to be a glorious couple days as the
19:57
Speaker 2: Brewers get ready for the rematch against the Dodgers. The
19:59
Speaker 2: NLCS is upon us. Let's get after it. You're in
20:02
Speaker 2: the huddle. Fox Sports Radio.
20:06
Speaker 7: Not sure I can do this, but I trust you
20:08
Speaker 7: and I believe in you. So let's celebrate and get
20:11
Speaker 7: out of here.
20:23
Speaker 2: Rolling along the huddle, Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. It is
20:26
Speaker 2: the Thursday edition. There will be a Thursday night huddle tonight. Pottawatomie,
20:30
Speaker 2: a sports book, the official sports book partner of the
20:32
Speaker 2: Green Bay Packers, your sport, our stadium, the greatest spot
20:35
Speaker 2: to watch a doubleheader, and that will be the back
20:37
Speaker 2: end of our doubleheader in the huddle, Mornings. and afternoons,
20:40
Speaker 2: the last one. And then you can watch the, is
20:45
Speaker 2: it a double header? If they're not back to back,
20:46
Speaker 2: it'll be concurrent. It'll be, Buccaneers, Cowboys, and Guardians, White Sox.
20:50
Speaker 5: Yeah, but good luck flipping because you're going to have
20:53
Speaker 5: to go in between Prime and the other one.
20:54
Speaker 2: But you know what? It'll be worth it. They're all
20:56
Speaker 2: there for you. That's true.
20:57
Speaker 5: You saddle up at the Sportsbook Hangout. And if you
21:00
Speaker 5: really like the Annex area, once we're, I mean, you
21:03
Speaker 5: can always be hanging out there as well.
21:05
Speaker 2: Maybe a little bit toned down version of the Sportsbook.
21:08
Speaker 2: Is that fair?
21:08
Speaker 5: Maybe a little more comfortable version because sometimes you can
21:11
Speaker 5: be a little information overload when you walk into that Sportsbook.
21:14
Speaker 5: I know some people get a little nervous sometimes. The annex,
21:16
Speaker 5: a little more comfortable version.
21:18
Speaker 6: I feel like, you know, the sports book itself is
21:20
Speaker 6: the main spot. You know, it's like the club. It's
21:22
Speaker 6: like the main stage. It's where everybody, the lights are going,
21:25
Speaker 6: the music, the club's on. And the annex is like
21:27
Speaker 6: the lounge area in the back. If you're a VIP
21:29
Speaker 6: by the booths where you try and, you know, hey,
21:32
Speaker 6: what's up?
21:32
Speaker 2: How's it going? You know, make your connections.
21:35
Speaker 6: That's your lounge area where you try and make the connection.
21:38
Speaker 6: That's what the annex is, so it's a little more
21:41
Speaker 6: comfortable situation. But you have everything you need there. You
21:44
Speaker 6: have the kiosks. You have the menu, obviously, when you
21:46
Speaker 6: want to get your food and your drinks and everything.
21:48
Speaker 6: And you have all those screens still if you want
21:51
Speaker 6: to watch the games. And that's important. That's the spot
21:53
Speaker 6: to be at because you talk about flipping back and
21:55
Speaker 6: forth and all that stuff.
21:56
Speaker 2: You don't have to worry about that when you're at
21:57
Speaker 2: Pottawatomie Sportsbook. And that's the best part about it.
22:00
Speaker 6: So it'll be a fun night, especially because I look
22:04
Speaker 6: at it this way. I've always there's no better feeling
22:06
Speaker 6: than watching everybody else play when you've already won. OK,
22:09
Speaker 6: there's no better feeling. Now we have it would have
22:12
Speaker 6: been fine. You know, game four, game five, whatever. You
22:15
Speaker 6: want to win because you have more time to bask
22:16
Speaker 6: in the glory before the next season series starts. That's
22:19
Speaker 6: kind of the way I've always looked at it as
22:21
Speaker 6: a fan. So I love that we have a few
22:22
Speaker 6: days now to enjoy it before we get ready to
22:25
Speaker 6: go for this mammoth showdown with the Dodgers.
22:29
Speaker 2: Mammoth is a good way to put it. Yeah, it's
22:32
Speaker 2: a rematch.
22:33
Speaker 5: They just showed McGill getting doused by about 12 beers
22:36
Speaker 5: at one time. A couple of the good highlights thrown in.
22:39
Speaker 5: I'm excited to get Hunter's reaction to it. You could
22:42
Speaker 5: tell McGill was having a good time. Always does. There
22:44
Speaker 5: was one good shot of Cooper Pratt just hardcore double fisting,
22:49
Speaker 5: and he just looked into the camera with the two
22:50
Speaker 5: Budweiser's and just gives a little smile.
22:52
Speaker 2: Like, yeah.
22:53
Speaker 6: Yeah.
22:54
Speaker 5: Right here and to be able to put aside the
22:58
Speaker 5: struggles that he had last night. I mean, he had
23:00
Speaker 5: a roller coaster ride in one night. It was, it
23:03
Speaker 5: had me texting Hunter and you know, I do have
23:06
Speaker 5: to apologize to him when he comes on as he's
23:08
Speaker 5: there covering a baseball.
23:09
Speaker 2: Game and I'm just blowing up his phone and we're
23:11
Speaker 2: just going through the entire game.
23:13
Speaker 5: There's a number of different moments drew where I was
23:18
Speaker 5: hearkening back to a couple of our conversations of wondering,
23:21
Speaker 5: do they go with some of the vets? Do they,
23:23
Speaker 5: let the youngsters eat and let them in there. Hey,
23:27
Speaker 5: throw them into the deep end and see if he
23:29
Speaker 5: can swim. And at times it went right up under
23:31
Speaker 5: the water, but he was about 20 feet away from
23:34
Speaker 5: a big two run shot. Gives them that, uh, that
23:37
Speaker 5: second and third with nobody out on the ground rule double.
23:41
Speaker 5: And Pratt was just right there in the middle of
23:43
Speaker 5: this thing. And you know that he's going to have
23:44
Speaker 5: to be a huge reason if they're going to ultimately
23:46
Speaker 5: be able to get this done against LA.
23:48
Speaker 6: And I think what you did, you know, bringing these
23:50
Speaker 6: guys up now, Laura's taking a backseat a little bit.
23:52
Speaker 2: Cause Sal's played well.
23:53
Speaker 6: So in a little, a little sense, they've done that
23:55
Speaker 6: with Sal, with the vet, but they basically, when they
23:57
Speaker 6: brought Cooper up mid season, they said, look, this is
24:00
Speaker 6: going to be your time. This is going to be
24:02
Speaker 6: your position. And you're going to have to meet that
24:04
Speaker 6: burden of being in this spot for a team that
24:07
Speaker 6: wants to win a championship. That's why you're playing right
24:10
Speaker 6: now to get ready. We're not going to call you
24:12
Speaker 6: up in September. We're calling you up right now so
24:14
Speaker 6: you can be ready for that moment. And he has
24:17
Speaker 6: had some issues defensively, but he has not let them
24:20
Speaker 6: affect him on the next play. And I think that's
24:22
Speaker 6: what's impressive. And at the plate, he's looked really good.
24:24
Speaker 6: So when the ball is hit to Cooper, I'm still
24:26
Speaker 6: confident he'll make the play. I know he's had a
24:30
Speaker 6: couple errors here, but I think he's the man for
24:32
Speaker 6: the moment there. And yeah, you have Lara as the
24:36
Speaker 6: fourth outfielder right now, which is totally fine.
24:38
Speaker 2: Sal's the guy right now. So, you know, I think that's.
24:41
Speaker 6: Where the Brewers should be commended is they didn't balk
24:44
Speaker 6: on bringing him up early during the season. When things
24:47
Speaker 6: were going well, they could have said, let's just let
24:48
Speaker 6: this boat keep rocking. They said, no, we're not going
24:51
Speaker 6: to worry about that. We're going to bring him up
24:52
Speaker 6: right now and help the whole team and help Ortiz, obviously,
24:55
Speaker 6: and other guys perfectly.
24:56
Speaker 2: As the Brewers were popping bottles, there's a great picture
24:58
Speaker 2: of Cooper Pratt holding the two bottles of Fanta. The Fanta.
25:02
Speaker 3: Yeah.
25:02
Speaker 2: The Fanta, Armand's favorite soda of yours. Orange Fanta. Different flavors,
25:07
Speaker 2: of course. Cooper Pratt doesn't drink the booze. So he's like,
25:09
Speaker 2: and then he was, according to Kurt Hogue, he was
25:13
Speaker 2: reading the ingredients and talking about how much high fructose
25:16
Speaker 2: corn syrup he was putting into his body. Classic Gen Z.
25:19
Speaker 2: That is a super Gen Z. Classic Gen Z.
25:21
Speaker 6: Now, I always thought, like, if you weren't going to
25:23
Speaker 6: do the champagne, if a guy didn't want to booze it,
25:26
Speaker 6: it would be like ginger ale because it's like a
25:28
Speaker 6: similar soda.
25:29
Speaker 2: Or a similar type of drink. Sparkling grape juice. Sparkling grape,
25:31
Speaker 2: same deal. Murph doesn't drink either. Fanta, you want to
25:34
Speaker 2: do it, just whatever you guys want. I mean, who cares?
25:37
Speaker 2: Spray Diet Right. Spray RC Cola for all I care.
25:40
Speaker 5: Who cares?
25:42
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
25:43
Speaker 5: Had a shot of him with those phantom bottles. Just
25:46
Speaker 5: dudes being dudes. Guys are awesome, aren't they?
25:50
Speaker 2: This is when we see it too.
25:52
Speaker 6: Everyone kept saying it was a muted celebration, but McGill
25:54
Speaker 6: still said, I'll still take my shirt off and do
25:56
Speaker 6: all that stuff.
25:57
Speaker 5: Woody had his shirt off before they even did anything
26:00
Speaker 5: in that clubhouse. They shot in there and all of
26:02
Speaker 5: a sudden Woody's just walking around shirtless ready to start partying.
26:05
Speaker 2: Hey man, I did my work. Another thing that strikes me,
26:08
Speaker 2: and we're going to be watching the video this game
26:10
Speaker 2: because that's what we got in the celebration for a
26:13
Speaker 2: while yep uh it's actually well it's their second yes
26:16
Speaker 2: they won the division and they didn't really celebrate you
26:20
Speaker 2: know the playoff car the playoff thing and they just
26:22
Speaker 2: like kind of toasted the best record but this is
26:25
Speaker 2: their second you win the series you don't play they've
26:29
Speaker 2: to me in my book i will i will die
26:31
Speaker 2: on this hill that they've won two playoff series we
26:33
Speaker 2: only got to we only got to watch one and
26:35
Speaker 2: got to see one selly but they won the one
26:38
Speaker 2: that they didn't have to play by not playing the
26:40
Speaker 2: first round. Well, I agree.
26:42
Speaker 6: You know, I've always been trying to kind of support
26:44
Speaker 6: you in that in years past when it came to
26:47
Speaker 6: Aaron Rogers, I used to say that he should get
26:49
Speaker 6: a credit for wildcard wins when he earned buys. Like
26:52
Speaker 6: his playoff record was always whatever it was, but I'm like, well, you.
26:55
Speaker 2: Don't count the wild.
26:55
Speaker 6: You're really not going to like Brady's playoff record. I
26:57
Speaker 6: know it's nasty. He's nasty, but it's like, Now, no,
27:01
Speaker 6: of course, no one's going to agree with me on
27:02
Speaker 6: these things. I always said that like, Hey, it's just
27:05
Speaker 6: like my whole, usually receivers and quarterbacks should get yardage
27:08
Speaker 6: credit for passing interference calls, but no one's ever going
27:10
Speaker 6: to get it.
27:11
Speaker 2: But you make a great point.
27:12
Speaker 1: True.
27:12
Speaker 6: It's like, this is why you win. This is why
27:13
Speaker 6: you earn that series because you earn the extra round.
27:16
Speaker 6: It's like a free win. Yeah.
27:17
Speaker 2: Well, and once you're in it, you learn it.
27:19
Speaker 5: The Cubs talked about it this year around the deadline and,
27:22
Speaker 5: and It was Jed Hoyer who had mentioned, he's like, well,
27:25
Speaker 5: maybe our plans would be a little bit different if
27:27
Speaker 5: we had the buy. Like if we were, if we
27:29
Speaker 5: were fighting to maybe get the buy, things could be
27:31
Speaker 5: a little bit different because it's just that important.
27:35
Speaker 2: And it's just that different.
27:36
Speaker 5: You go and play a three game series where you
27:39
Speaker 5: could be two rough outings in a bullpen away from
27:43
Speaker 5: going home. and to actually having a legitimate back and forth,
27:46
Speaker 5: there's a huge difference to that. CeCe Sabathia tweeted out
27:49
Speaker 5: last night, nobody more deserving than the city of Milwaukee
27:51
Speaker 5: and the fans.
27:52
Speaker 2: Man, my man, CeCe. CeCe still has a soft spot.
27:56
Speaker 2: And you can feel it's genuine. He was at the
28:00
Speaker 2: game one. He was at game two?
28:02
Speaker 5: One or two, I can't remember. I think it was
28:04
Speaker 5: game two he had posted that he was in there.
28:06
Speaker 5: Really good stories coming out, and we're going to get
28:09
Speaker 5: a ton of it from Hunter, but Uribe after the
28:11
Speaker 5: game last night and then the Journal Sentinel post. off
28:13
Speaker 5: the 99-mile-an-hour fastball or sinker that Machado hit to the wall.
28:18
Speaker 5: He said, yep, I thought it was gone off the bat, man.
28:21
Speaker 5: I thought it was gone off the bat, man. I'm
28:22
Speaker 5: not going to lie to you.
28:24
Speaker 2: No reason to.
28:24
Speaker 5: And you could tell by the reaction from Uribe right
28:28
Speaker 5: off of the bat.
28:28
Speaker 2: Like, oh, no.
28:29
Speaker 5: He for sure thought it was gone. Good crowd shots
28:32
Speaker 5: of the watch party that they ended up throwing outside
28:36
Speaker 5: of American Family Field. Again, I'm just going to throw
28:40
Speaker 5: this out there to the crew. Just open that ballpark up.
28:42
Speaker 2: That'd be nice.
28:43
Speaker 5: That looked like a crew that could have been five
28:47
Speaker 5: or six times the attendance. You put them inside the stadium,
28:52
Speaker 5: maybe warm it up a little bit. Absolutely going to
28:55
Speaker 5: have that many more people.
28:55
Speaker 6: I mean, this is Milwaukee. This is Wisconsin. We want
28:58
Speaker 6: to gather and celebrate as a community. We're very good
29:01
Speaker 6: at doing that. It's part of our DNA, so. I
29:04
Speaker 6: totally agree. I don't know if there's a reason besides
29:06
Speaker 6: the staffing and this and that. It's a very good idea,
29:10
Speaker 6: I would think. And I think it's still a reverent opportunity.
29:13
Speaker 6: So I would agree with you there. We want to gather.
29:16
Speaker 6: It's what we do. A couple quick texts here and
29:19
Speaker 6: messages in already. Everyone's up and at them. because, you know,
29:23
Speaker 6: they're excited. I mean, who wouldn't be Troy Casper on YouTube?
29:26
Speaker 6: Welcome to the NLCS boys. And he's got boys with
29:29
Speaker 6: a Z, which I love a little bit of party there.
29:32
Speaker 6: Zach stayed up for the game on the way to work. Now,
29:35
Speaker 6: never been so happy to be so tired. Love this team.
29:38
Speaker 2: John K. Good morning, boys. Bring up. on the Dodgers.
29:41
Speaker 2: I love that one.
29:42
Speaker 5: I like that from Zach. Never been this happy to
29:44
Speaker 5: be this tired. That's generally reserved for waking up early
29:47
Speaker 5: for a flight to Vegas for me.
29:49
Speaker 2: I was thinking the same thing.
29:51
Speaker 6: That's the one when you're excited to go on a trip.
29:53
Speaker 2: I read out Tim, not seeing Mac and cheese head man.
29:55
Speaker 6: He get a home run stolen was Epic and the
29:57
Speaker 6: stolen base by Armin.
29:58
Speaker 2: Sorry. And light was huge.
30:00
Speaker 6: No, I like that he's Armin Sarian-like. I'm not Sal Freelick-like. Well, yeah,
30:04
Speaker 6: I mean, he is like 15 years younger than you. Yeah, well, yeah,
30:07
Speaker 6: but he's also more successful.
30:08
Speaker 2: Actually closer to 20. But he's more successful, though. I mean,
30:11
Speaker 2: I would say. I wouldn't necessarily say that. You know,
30:13
Speaker 2: that's a good point. I mean, we're both on the
30:15
Speaker 2: same field. He's not the executive director, producer of the
30:17
Speaker 2: Packers Radio Network. Yeah, come on. Yeah, what are you doing, Sal? Cool,
30:19
Speaker 2: gold glove right fielder.
30:20
Speaker 6: Right.
30:21
Speaker 2: Sick. Executive producer of the Packers Radio Network. How many
30:24
Speaker 2: stations are you on?
30:25
Speaker 1: 45?
30:25
Speaker 2: 40, 50, whatever it is. Across five states? Yeah, we
30:29
Speaker 2: got a lot of states.
30:30
Speaker 5: I think you should flex that arm a little bit
30:32
Speaker 5: more than you just did right there.
30:33
Speaker 2: Six states. Six states, sorry. Thank you. Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, North,
30:37
Speaker 2: South Dakota.
30:38
Speaker 6: Derek from Whitewater. Do you think Murph put any thought
30:40
Speaker 6: into putting McGill in the eighth instead of the ninth
30:42
Speaker 6: to face their better hitters?
30:43
Speaker 1: Maybe.
30:44
Speaker 6: I mean, some guys have done that, but I think
30:47
Speaker 6: he was going to trust his guys right there.
30:49
Speaker 2: You know?
30:51
Speaker 5: You could tell Fox definitely wanted Miz to be coming
30:53
Speaker 5: in the game. That was a big storyline there for
30:59
Speaker 5: a while.
31:00
Speaker 2: Oh, Miz is getting stretched and getting ready, and there
31:02
Speaker 2: he is sitting. That being said, he was spikes on
31:07
Speaker 2: in the first inning.
31:08
Speaker 5: Yeah, and he did look like, I saw somebody tweet
31:10
Speaker 5: this out, he did look like the kid that was
31:12
Speaker 5: just waiting to get picked. He was just sitting there
31:14
Speaker 5: in full uniform, sitting as straight up as possible, legs
31:18
Speaker 5: shaking because he just can't wait to potentially get in there.
31:21
Speaker 5: And Murph said it after the game, that was all
31:23
Speaker 5: for show. I love him standing up there throwing in
31:27
Speaker 5: the ninth inning. No, that was all for show. That
31:28
Speaker 5: was going to be McGill. He was going to have
31:30
Speaker 5: to close the door for it. But you wondered, and
31:33
Speaker 5: the radio guys did it immediately. After the second inning,
31:38
Speaker 5: Miz may have gone to either get a Gatorade, Drew,
31:42
Speaker 5: take a, take a leak, dude, just about anything possible
31:45
Speaker 5: in the, in the candy. And immediately levering goes, there
31:48
Speaker 5: is a tall young man walking around in the Brewers bullpen.
31:53
Speaker 2: Oh, here we go. Okay. Nevermind. He just sat down.
31:55
Speaker 2: Cause let's admit it is a true.
31:56
Speaker 5: Might be the only guy that you're able to see
31:58
Speaker 5: out there, but yeah, the drama was in and the
32:00
Speaker 5: intrigue was there to see if he was going to go.
32:02
Speaker 2: It's a dramatic type moment. I mean, I get it. I,
32:04
Speaker 2: who was it?
32:05
Speaker 6: Maybe it was Kershaw once that went from the dugout to,
32:07
Speaker 6: to the bullpen mid, uh, mid, you know, between innings
32:11
Speaker 6: once in a playoff game and people.
32:13
Speaker 2: Freaked like, there he goes. He's getting ready to go.
32:15
Speaker 2: He's making the trip. So it was all hands on
32:17
Speaker 2: deck for the Padres last night. They use Robbie Ray
32:20
Speaker 2: second out of the shoe behind Buehler. And then they
32:23
Speaker 2: use Mason Miller in a big inning in the seventh.
32:27
Speaker 2: Brewers almost tagged him. Almost tagged him. Two hits and
32:30
Speaker 2: a walk. Great inning off him, actually. Great inning off him.
32:33
Speaker 2: And then Musgrove, the people's champion, the guy from there
32:35
Speaker 2: that they love, pitched the last two scoreless. But the
32:39
Speaker 2: hay was in the barn. Brewers win. They prevail. And
32:42
Speaker 2: they're moving on. Rematch against the Dodgers beginning Sunday night.
32:46
Speaker 2: What a glorious day. How glorious will it be if
32:49
Speaker 2: the Packers beat the Bears and the Brewers beat the Dodgers?
32:52
Speaker 2: If we double up on Sunday... Our first afternoon show
32:56
Speaker 2: is going to be absolutely raucous. Just send me to
32:59
Speaker 2: the heavens. I mean, we're ready for some pie in
33:01
Speaker 2: the sky. Send me to the heavens. Send me to
33:04
Speaker 2: the heavens or send me to the finest. It could
33:08
Speaker 2: be even better. Now we're talking. Sources close to our
33:11
Speaker 2: situation say that we very well could be doing a
33:14
Speaker 2: little pregame festivities. Our first afternoon show with the huddle
33:18
Speaker 2: could be emanating from Saz's statehouse. All with some.
33:22
Speaker 5: Beautiful ribs with sassy Saz's sauce.
33:25
Speaker 2: My goodness. That's going to be exciting. Yes, indeed. I'll
33:29
Speaker 2: be thinking about that. Yep.
33:30
Speaker 6: And I'm also, speaking of Saz's, and when I think
33:33
Speaker 6: of Saz's, I think Milwaukee Admirals. I want to know
33:36
Speaker 6: what's going on Saturday night. Because Greeny dropped that little
33:39
Speaker 6: nugget yesterday. And now that the series is over and
33:42
Speaker 6: guys have some time off.
33:43
Speaker 2: There will be some guys around for sure. I think
33:46
Speaker 2: there will be several members. I'm not working that night,
33:49
Speaker 2: but I'm going to have to see. Might have to
33:51
Speaker 2: go slide in. That's what I'm talking about. You might
33:52
Speaker 2: have to come down. You could work with us. I
33:54
Speaker 2: got to pass.
33:55
Speaker 6: Well, I don't know if I'll make it in time
33:56
Speaker 6: because of babysitting.
33:57
Speaker 2: I'm talking about all that right now. Hey, Hunter's got
33:59
Speaker 2: a report for us, by the way. He filed and
34:01
Speaker 2: he didn't sleep. When we come back, we'll hear Hunter's report.
34:03
Speaker 2: We'll start spinning through some of the sound that he provided.
34:06
Speaker 2: He's going to join us live as he's sitting in
34:08
Speaker 2: the airport at 725. He'll be with us having some
34:12
Speaker 2: fun because it's one of those 10% days when it
34:15
Speaker 2: doesn't suck to be a sports fan. You're in the huddle.
34:17
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin. Drew, Billy, and Armin bringing it
34:22
Speaker 2: to you. I actually got off the couch last night,
34:25
Speaker 2: went and saw my pal Rhett Miller at Shank Hall.
34:27
Speaker 2: Let's go. Go to the show. Folks who are going
34:30
Speaker 2: to Spring Green on Friday and Saturday, you're going to
34:33
Speaker 2: have a blast. Rhett was rocking it. Sounded good.
34:35
Speaker 1: Great.
34:36
Speaker 2: Sounded great. He was in great spirits. Great set list.
34:39
Speaker 2: As he said in our interview, it's like he played
34:42
Speaker 2: a lot of old 97 stuff and his solo stuff.
34:44
Speaker 2: It was just a hit jukebox. It was a great show.
34:47
Speaker 2: A lot of fun. Louis Lucchese and Mike Benign open,
34:50
Speaker 2: local guys that are cool from the Louis and the
34:53
Speaker 2: Flash Bombs band. So it was a good night. Crowd
34:57
Speaker 2: was a little bit diminished by Brewers, of course. Had
35:01
Speaker 2: the Brewers won, you know, they won in game three,
35:04
Speaker 2: it probably would have been another 75 people there. But,
35:07
Speaker 2: you know, it is what it is.
35:08
Speaker 6: You said he's tight with Matt Favreau or Vince Vaughn
35:11
Speaker 6: or one of those guys, right?
35:12
Speaker 2: Uh, he was in a movie with the breakup, the
35:16
Speaker 2: band in the break. I remember them being in that movie.
35:18
Speaker 2: Red appeared on an episode of the office because they
35:21
Speaker 2: were fans of him. So he did appear in the
35:23
Speaker 2: episode of the office and yeah, man, he's got a
35:25
Speaker 2: lot of stories. We were talking about it and he's
35:27
Speaker 2: just like, yeah, it's, you know, the money is, you know,
35:31
Speaker 2: fine to live comfortably, but he's in this, he's like,
35:33
Speaker 2: the perks are awesome. His best, some of his best
35:36
Speaker 2: friends are the guys that do what we do down
35:38
Speaker 2: in Dallas on the ticket.
35:40
Speaker 1: Oh, sure.
35:41
Speaker 2: One of their P ones, Gordon and those guys, those
35:43
Speaker 2: are his buddies. And he's really good. He's really tight
35:45
Speaker 2: with Eric Nadel, who's a legendary play-by-play guy down in Dallas.
35:49
Speaker 2: And I introduced him to his fellow Texan, Brian Anderson
35:52
Speaker 2: and other buds. Let's go. I texted, I actually texted
35:55
Speaker 2: BA last night because after the hanging out with red
35:58
Speaker 2: for a little bit after the show, I saw BA's
36:00
Speaker 2: call of the, of the Rays beating the Yankees and
36:04
Speaker 2: sending them into the off season. And so I texted
36:06
Speaker 2: my house with your buddy, Rhett, and we were just,
36:08
Speaker 2: you know.
36:09
Speaker 5: That was a hell of a game. I was going
36:11
Speaker 5: to say that was a heck of a game, man.
36:13
Speaker 5: Tampa Bay team is fun. And that, that Cleveland Chicago
36:17
Speaker 5: series is going to be fascinating to see if they
36:19
Speaker 5: can close it out here, but BA got a good
36:21
Speaker 5: one and he's going to get another good one there.
36:23
Speaker 5: I do love the fact though, that we're already getting
36:26
Speaker 5: the adjustments. read and then move their show up. What
36:28
Speaker 5: an hour, hour or so, 45 minutes or so.
36:31
Speaker 2: Yep.
36:32
Speaker 5: The adjustments are going to be on and don't look
36:34
Speaker 5: now next week, clear the deck. Cause there's going to
36:37
Speaker 5: be a lot of nights and a lot of people,
36:39
Speaker 5: a lot of plans that are potentially changing.
36:41
Speaker 2: By the way, the Yankees are now 17 years since
36:44
Speaker 2: their last title. Just not for nothing. You know what?
36:47
Speaker 2: They're going to blame Judge for this one again one day.
36:49
Speaker 5: We definitely have to remember that stat, Drew, when Wayne
36:53
Speaker 5: joins us tomorrow at 7.35.
36:55
Speaker 2: That's right. Is that mean of me to say? Let's
36:59
Speaker 2: hear from Hunter Baumgart. Hunter Baumgart boots on the ground.
37:02
Speaker 2: He is covering this series. What a great time for
37:04
Speaker 2: Hunter to be on the road for the whole boat.
37:06
Speaker 2: If the Brewers go all the way, he's going to
37:07
Speaker 2: be there for every step. Let's take a listen to
37:09
Speaker 2: Hunter's recap live from San Diego filed in the early
37:12
Speaker 2: morning hours.
37:14
Speaker 8: Thanks guys. The Milwaukee Brewers are headed back to the
37:16
Speaker 8: NLCS for the second straight season after a 3-1 victory
37:20
Speaker 8: in Game 4 of the NLDS here in San Diego
37:22
Speaker 8: last night. And wow, I'll tell you, the crowd was
37:25
Speaker 8: ready to try to send the Padres to Game 5,
37:28
Speaker 8: but the more the Brewers added on and kept the
37:30
Speaker 8: Padres at one run, the crowd was less and less
37:34
Speaker 8: into it. That aided the Brewers throughout the night. And
37:36
Speaker 8: it was their pitching that was absolutely incredible. Robert Gasser,
37:40
Speaker 8: four innings of one-run ball. Aaron Ashby didn't allow a
37:42
Speaker 8: hit over three innings. Abner Uribe, a scoreless frame in
37:45
Speaker 8: the eighth. And Trevor McGill slams the door in the ninth.
37:48
Speaker 8: And the Brewers take this NLDS in four games. And
37:51
Speaker 8: how about Garrett Mitchell's impact as well? He was 0-4
37:55
Speaker 8: with three strikeouts in Game 3. But then he went
37:58
Speaker 8: to Pat Murphy before Game 4 and said he was
38:01
Speaker 8: going to turn it around. Here's Pat Murphy on that
38:03
Speaker 8: conversation and the contributions from Mitchell.
38:05
Speaker 7: He approached me today, and we sat and talked, and
38:08
Speaker 7: he said, I got a plan tonight.
38:09
Speaker 2: I'm going to be better.
38:10
Speaker 5: Awesome.
38:11
Speaker 2: But that's the accountability.
38:14
Speaker 7: He knew he owed it to his teammates to come
38:16
Speaker 7: here in his best form.
38:18
Speaker 8: And, of course, Garrett Mitchell not only getting it done offensively,
38:21
Speaker 8: but robbing Manny Machado of what would have been a
38:23
Speaker 8: game-tying home run. Now Christian Yelich is heading to his
38:26
Speaker 8: third NLCS as a member of the Brewers, and he
38:29
Speaker 8: reflected on Game 2 when Jackson Churio hit the walk-off
38:32
Speaker 8: hit and how he really enjoyed actually seeing all of
38:35
Speaker 8: the fan reaction videos on social media. You're going to
38:38
Speaker 8: want to take a listen to this.
38:40
Speaker 9: I think that was one of the coolest things about
38:42
Speaker 9: Churio's walk-off, you know, was like seeing people's reactions at
38:47
Speaker 9: home and in the game and like them kind of
38:49
Speaker 9: posting it on social.
38:50
Speaker 4: Media and like, they kind of come up on ours
38:52
Speaker 4: because we're all around, like, the same area and stuff.
38:54
Speaker 4: And it was really cool to see how much, like,
38:56
Speaker 4: that meant to people and, like, the actual, like, the
38:59
Speaker 4: authentic joy in those moments and, like, seeing people, like,
39:04
Speaker 4: us playing well and winning games, like, what it means
39:06
Speaker 4: to people.
39:06
Speaker 9: And, like, that was so awesome and really cool.
39:08
Speaker 2: And, like, I don't know.
39:10
Speaker 5: It was awesome.
39:11
Speaker 2: And, you know, I know that if.
39:14
Speaker 4: We do what we want to do, like how special
39:16
Speaker 4: that would be to the city.
39:18
Speaker 2: This is one step down and a couple more to go.
39:21
Speaker 8: Man, it would be awesome if Christian Jelic could bring
39:24
Speaker 8: the city of Milwaukee and the state of Wisconsin and
39:26
Speaker 8: Brewers fans everywhere a World Series. Well, this is it
39:31
Speaker 8: from Petco Park. The Brewers have done what they need
39:34
Speaker 8: to do. Advance to the NLCS. Game one Sunday night
39:36
Speaker 8: at American Family Field. A rematch of Brewers and Dodgers
39:40
Speaker 8: cannot wait. This report has been brought to you by
39:44
Speaker 8: Community Roofing.
39:46
Speaker 2: Back to you guys. That is awesome. Thank you, Hunter.
39:48
Speaker 2: I love it. Gallagher's reading my tweets and stuff. Now
39:51
Speaker 2: I knew that. Now he's following you. Now I've confirmed
39:54
Speaker 2: the fact. He knows Armand's in his feels.
39:56
Speaker 6: He's looking at everyone's social media and seeing how much
39:58
Speaker 6: joy it brings to the people.
39:59
Speaker 2: I mean, man, what a guy. Sorry, I just got.
40:03
Speaker 2: I was going to say, did I get you misty-eyed
40:05
Speaker 2: a little bit? I ate that thing up, man. And
40:08
Speaker 2: I liked the way Hunter said it up. You're going
40:09
Speaker 2: to want to hear this.
40:12
Speaker 5: I just got a picture of the bottle, Drew, that
40:14
Speaker 5: you mentioned of all the cities across the state of Wisconsin.
40:18
Speaker 5: Matt Erickson holding up the Appleton one is phenomenal. They
40:21
Speaker 5: have leaned into the Wisco and the full state mantra.
40:25
Speaker 5: And listen, as part of the crew that did see
40:29
Speaker 5: those jerseys and say, And still will say, I don't
40:32
Speaker 5: know anybody calls it Wisco. I really don't know anybody
40:36
Speaker 5: calls it Wisco. The logo still looks like the Nationals. However,
40:40
Speaker 5: I still love the vibe. I love the vibe even
40:43
Speaker 5: more that they're buying into as much of being the
40:46
Speaker 5: state's team because I was seeing a lot of folks
40:48
Speaker 5: from a lot of stretches across this beautiful land of
40:51
Speaker 5: ours that were very excited last night and probably staying
40:55
Speaker 5: up far later than they would have imagined, they care
40:58
Speaker 5: to admit.
40:59
Speaker 7: Or that.
41:01
Speaker 5: They end up later on tonight. Will how late you
41:04
Speaker 5: stayed up last night be the ice bowl? There will
41:05
Speaker 5: be some folks that ended up staying up until about 1.45,
41:07
Speaker 5: 2 o'clock, watching stuff.
41:09
Speaker 2: Later and later, but we're here for you very early
41:11
