  Speaker 2: The number one ranked golfer in the world to do
• 1:08
  the picking, which will include the number one college football
• 1:12
  team in the nation as part of the choices. Obviously,
• 1:15
  for those of you who are unfamiliar with that dynamic,
• 1:19
  when the ESPN College Game Day crew is on site,
• 1:22
  they have of course, you know, they're they're guys who
• 1:26
  are Rhees Davis.

  does kind of pick yeah. And then and then obviously, uh,
• 1:38
  there's Desmond Howard, and there's Pat mcavie, and there's Lee
• 1:41
  Corso and Kirk Kerbstreet. But since Kirk Kerbstreet is working
• 1:46
  the telecast with Chris Fowler, he doesn't actually pick the
• 1:49
  game that he's working so to prevent any appearance of
• 1:55
  impropriety or anything like that, so he doesn't make that
• 1:59
  he doesn't make us election on the game at hand
• 2:01
  that he's working, but he'll pick the other games as well,
• 2:04
  so they're all doing that, and then they have a
• 2:05
  guest picker, a guest selector, and it's usually someone affiliated
• 2:11
  with in some way, shape or form, most notably and
• 2:14
  most of the time because are in alumnus.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Not always, but most of the time.
• 2:19

• 4:27
  a Thursday night NFL game tonight. Who's the Thursday night
• 4:32
  game tonight? You remember if you asked me hold on.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's a real barn burner, Sean Payton's return to
• 4:41
  New Orleans Rockcos Saints, Okay, Okay, bownecks for Spencer Ratler.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, alright. So anyway, so there's there's that.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: There are college games tonight, and also in addition to that,
• 4:57
  high school football around the area. In fact, I'll be
• 5:00
  working the telecasts with Roger Wallace, who will be on
• 5:03
  the play by play call of the game on KBVO tonight,
• 5:07
  which is Hendrickson with an unenviable task trying to pull
• 5:12
  off an upset of third ranked and unbeaten aim Consolidated.
• 5:17
  That is tonight. So that's going on tonight. But there's
• 5:21
  other Thursday games as well, Thursday games on the college scene,
• 5:24
  and there's baseball. There's baseball early this evening and later
• 5:30
  this evening. The American League Championship Series has shifted to Cleveland,
• 5:37
  where the New York Yankees hold a two games to
• 5:39
  none lead on the Cleveland Guardians. And so Game three
• 5:46
  tonight used to be called progressive field. It's called something else,
• 5:50
  isn't it. I don't think it's still called progressive, is it.
• 5:53
  It's something really stupid, right, just like Guardians is stupid. No,
• 5:58
  it is Progressive Field because it used to be called
• 6:01
  what was it called before? We called Jacobs Field before, right,
• 6:04
  it was initially it was called Jacob's Field. That's where
• 6:07
  That's what I remember what it was called. And I
• 6:08
  think it's prect Jake, that's Progressive Field. Okay, So they play.
• 6:14
  I believe they're starting at five thirty I think or
• 6:17
  five and then four eight Central time, four oh eight
• 6:21
  Central time.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, first pitch, yeah, okay.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: So that's Game three with the Yankees leading the Guardians
• 6:29
  two games to none, and then later this evening is
• 6:32
  Game four of the National League Championship Series. The Dodgers
• 6:35
  and the Mets in New York. Los Angeles pitched another
• 6:38
  shutout last night. They won eight to nothing. Shoe Aotoni
• 6:42
  hit a ball that might have landed in Manhattan.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: He hit it in Queens. It was just crushed one.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: It's amazing what his numbers are when he's got runners
• 6:54
  on base and when the bases are empty, when the
• 6:56
  bases are empty in the postseason, in the postseason, this postseason,
• 7:01
  Joey O Tommy's first postseason, when the bases are EMPTI
• 7:05
  z oo for twenty two.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: When there are runners.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: I believe in scoring position is the way when his
• 7:14
  runners in scoring position, he's seven out.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Of nine at the plate. It's pretty good. Yeah, So
• 7:21
  anyway other way around, that's for sure.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: And the Dodgers got some badly needed effective starting pitching
• 7:27
  last night out of Walker Bueller and then four relievers
• 7:32
  to pitch the shutout Los Angeles, becoming the third team
• 7:36
  in Big League history to have three postseason shutouts and
• 7:44
  tying map Mark. So tonight the Mets will try to
• 7:48
  counter and with Kntana on the mound, and the Dodgers
• 7:53
  are going to bring back Yoshinobu Yamamoto, I believe in
• 7:58
  one day's less rest than what he's normally accustomed to doing.
• 8:01
  It it's not the it would be a regular turn
• 8:06
  on regular rest in the rotation. They had been giving
• 8:09
  him an extra day or two or whatever. But no
• 8:12
  luxury for that right now because the Mets still have
• 8:15
  the edge and the starting pitching. But the Dodgers are
• 8:18
  going to be pushed to see if they can go
• 8:21
  three straight days pushing that bullpen, because that's what they
• 8:25
  did last night. They put they got five bullpen innings
• 8:30
  last night they have to do it tonight and then
• 8:34
  tomorrow before the series would shift back to La if
• 8:37
  the Mets win either tonight or tomorrow to force a
• 8:39
  game six. So anyway, that's the baseball stuff at stake,
• 8:43
  and we'll have more on that coming up. And it's
• 8:44
  more college football things to get to as well, So
• 8:50
