• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Is it last weekend of the regular season. I love
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: the smile. Todd Father. Hey dude, dude, we got a
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: lot to do and we haven't seen you until now,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: so we're going to get your take on all these wild,
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: wild races in some of your former ball clubs are
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: very much in the thick of it, so we'll get
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: to that. Sometimes we do this topic in slappans. I'm
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: just going to do it now for a quick minute
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: because I just caught it and I don't know if
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: we'll have time later to be honest. Sunday, Charlie Morton
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: calling it a career. He's going to start the game.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: I don't think he's going to pitch much because Chris
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Sales actually the scheduled starter now the piggyback guy, and
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: I think he's going to want to eat. But congratulations
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: to him. Braves pick him up and he gets to
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: finish with the Braves against the Pirates. He spent seven
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: years with the Pirates, So cool old moment. You like that. Krats.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: A lot of guys don't get to say goodbye the
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: way they want. I think this would be one of
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: those situations where he.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Does absolutely to get ten years in the big leagues.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: It's rare to make the Hall of Fame. It's just
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: about as rare to go out on your own terms,
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: and seems like he's going out on his own terms.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Obviously he wish is this year would have gone better,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: but it's so cool that's lining up. He's gonna face
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: the Pirates, the team who gave him a shot. He
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: didn't make his big league debut. He made that with
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: the Braves, and he's playing for the Braves like somehow
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: we got to smatter in some astros here somehow, like
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: because he's known for both. But man, what a career.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: Charlie Morton.
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: Man, when you think of him, you think of when
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: he came into the league throwing ninety to ninety three,
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: maybe hitting ninety four with that nasty, nasty breaking pitch,
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden, three four years later
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: he caught steam and was throwing ninety seven and ninety nine, Like,
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: how do you do that?
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: I wish I could, you know, go from hitting two
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: forty which was my average, to three ten, but that's
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: just not going to happen. So for him, congratulations, God
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: lusher Man Austin, he got a world series ring right,
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: if I'm not mistaken, he did, right, Scott, Yeah, he did, yep,
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: and he exceeded all expectations because that ninety two was
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: very hittable.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: He had some stink to a little sink action the.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Curveball, but with that curveball in ninety eight, whole different ballgame.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: So he lasted a long time and well deserved going
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: away present here on sunder.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, World Series All Star. And he guess what year?
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: What year? Real quick? Were you guys drafted?
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: What year?
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: Seven oh two?
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: That's the same as Charlie. Charlie was drafted in two
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: thousand and two.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: He was a high school kid. He was a high
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: school kid. He got traded over in the Jeff no
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: not the Jeff Carsons deal, Ryan Church deal, I'm not sure,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: to the Pirates, and I got to catch his first
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: triple A start. He made like one or two more
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: and the to the show.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, not until two thousand and eight, has to the show.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: And then twenty eighteen was really the breakout for him,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: his age thirty four season, and then he had a
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: nice little whatever seven year run where he's been pretty
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: effective up until this year where he's calling it so anyway,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: cheers to Charlie. That's happening on Sunday, But there are
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: very meaningful games going down over the next few days.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Let's get to it.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Charge out.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: We're charging baby, Let's set it up. Diamondbacks have a shot,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Reds have a shot. Mets have a shot. What's going
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: on with your Reds?
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: Though? This week?
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Top five? They have good pitching, but I've spent a
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: lot of time watching them. Are they going to score
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: some runs this weekend?
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: They're better? They better snuck by that last game too.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: They had a chance.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: They had so many opportunities to kind of get two
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: out of three at least there extra innings.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: Man, they were sitting in the driver shoot. I was
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: out in Cincinnati.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: Jeff Ruby Foundation charity, and it was it was electric.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: The people in there, Like I was trying to talk football,
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: but they know the Bengals are done, so they were
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: basically talking baseball. And this would be so good for this,
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: for the for the city. I said, yeah, without a doubt,
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: like this is awesome. I was actually excited too, man.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: I almost stayed another day just to watch the game.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: But it was good to see a packed house. It
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: was good to see the energy. They still got a
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: good chance here to matter with the Mets, and now
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: Mets have to lose and they have to win.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Packed house, question Mark, they sold some tickets, question Mark.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: I think I thought since he should have should have
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: shown out a little bit better. I get it during
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: the week schools back in I needed to see more
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: since he fans. But the Reds Bats really didn't say, hey,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: come out and watch us. They were like, don't tell us,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: don't tell us these games. Besides Tyler Stevenson, they wouldn't
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: have been in the second game. And without that catch
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: from noelbe Marte, who knows what happens? Like they gotta hit,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: they gotta hit. I feel like they're gonna break out
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: in this series. Maybe.
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: Well again, he's knocking the red legs there a little bit, man.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I did too. Earlier in the week, Todd
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Father the Skeens Green game had great attendance. I don't
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: care what the numbers are. You can look at the
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: ballpark feed and see who's there and whatever. Yesterday apparently
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: it was twenty four thousand. It was much bigger for
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Skans in Green. So yeah, it hasn't been a massive turnout.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: I'm like, guys, this is your postseason right now?
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: This is it?
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that's it's kind of par for the course.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: But twenty four thousand is a lot more than they've
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: been having the whole season. So they feel it, they
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: understand it. But is it a little bit too late?
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: I don't know the Mets. Who the Mets playing again,
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: I just draw a blank.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: The Marlins.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: Mets are playing the Marlins. The Reds are in Milwaukee,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: and the Diamondbacks are in San Diego.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, let me see here, Milwaukee, the Marlins.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: The Marlins have their three best pitchers going. The Brewers,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: guys are.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: On the game.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: They need to win one of them.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, just one.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: It's a conjuring Cabrera. So they're gonna make it. They're
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: gonna make it tough on them. I mean, they're not
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: gonna They're not gonna roll over. The Marlins sures heck
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: aren't gonna roll over. Not saying the Brewers are. But
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: I know, like today, Quinn Priesters going. I saw places
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: he might have a fifty pitch count. They let Freddy
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: p go to seventy five and he was rolling pulled
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: him out. So I'm not saying They're not gonna try
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: to win the game. I'm saying, you're not getting the
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: cavalcade of brewers pitchers. You're gonna get the guy in
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: the situation that it matters for that situation. But from there,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: if the Reds can outlast this pitching staff, they have
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: a chances. We've taken two out of three.
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: Crats.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about Omaha Steaks. And it's not just steaks.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: It's chicken winnings, it's smash burgers, big Deli style franks.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: There are a number of categories that you can hit
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: all in one place. They've been doing it for a
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: long time. They're the best of the biz. And if
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: you got a good full a life's good man.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: But you gotta finish every meal with some delectable desserts too.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: They have those too to go along with these delicious steaks.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm, Apple Cairomel tarts on the list, among many
• 7:32

• 8:04
  Speaker 1: quick side note, because I did the research while we
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: were talking, Great American Ballpark hold forty three and a
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: half thousand their reported number yesterday, And I get it.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I mean it was a day game and then rain
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: delay ish a little bit, but twenty four thousand reported number,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: so it was less than that, especially when you had
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: the rain situation. So I mean it's a half empty ballpark. Sorry,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I get it. Tickets are expensive all that. We've gone
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: through all of that, and there's things that teams should
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: be doing to help. Although I think there were single
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: digit dollar tickets that were available anyway for that game.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: I believe there were five, six, seven, eight nine dollars
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: tickets when I looked it up that the team was
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: making available, not even for the secondary market. So you
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: just look at that compared to what Cleveland was like
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: for the last few games against Detroit. It's a big difference.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: It was a different feel besides the Skiings screen game
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: that was lit. So now they're going to have to
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: go beat the best record in baseball. Even if they're
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: chilling a little bit, crats, they don't have any bad arms, right.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: The Brewers are still just naturally by playing going to
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: be a pest to play against. You know, you're not
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: getting like a garbage time pitcher to go up against.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: They don't have that, no, for sure.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: But you're also not getting guys who are like, all right,
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: like if he gets in a jam here, we're gonna
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: definitely go to this guy. They're not gonna be going
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: They're not gonna be dry humping dudes in the bullpen.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: You mean guys that are getting some extra just a
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: little extra leash to get Hey, we want this guy,
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: we want your rebate to get to twenty pitches. If
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: he's under it, we might give him another hitter. If
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: he's over it, we're not letting him out there. That
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: kind of thing that is not giving up by the Brewers.
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: That is just it's a lane for the Reds, which
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: I don't think are even in the same class as
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: the Brewers to be able to beat to be able
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: to beat these guys.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Tom Father, let me ask you. Oh, go ahead, and
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: I got one for you.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, go ahead. I'll lean on what you're
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: saying too.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: I want the hitter's perspective here from the other side. Okay,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: you have three teams that have a chance at a
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: playoff spot. The Mets are in control of their destiny.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: If the Mets went out this weekend, it's a done deal.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Since the Mets were able to take care of business
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: against the Cubs. But theoretically you have three teams involved. Right,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Two of them are playing teams that are already in
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: the postseason and essentially know what's going on. They're not
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: playing for much. And then one is going up against
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: the Marlins team that can just have fun and play spoiler.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Take me inside the brain of what a Padres or
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: Brewer's position player is feeling and what a Marlins position
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: player is feeling. Is this like fun playing with house money?
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Let's just go rip the baseball because we're in the playoffs,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: or for the Marlins case, we're not, and let's just
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: screw up their season.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: Well, first and foremost, as a hitter, at least what
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: I thought I wanted to have round numbers. I learned
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: that from Dusty Baker. You know, if you have eighty
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: nine RBIs, I want to get to ninety. Just an example,
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: Like you want you're bat in two sixty nine, you
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: want to get to two seventy whatever it is, Like,
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: that's what happened to me with the Mets.
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: I was.
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: Get one number, I was, but I rounded it up
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: to a higher number and then they took me out
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: of the game. So I can see that happening in
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: Milwaukee for sure. And it's a happy, go lucky atmosphere.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: You know you're gonna have home field advantage. You know,
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: it's got to be seventy five eighty percent, knowing because
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: if one team loses, they're automatically getting home field advantage,
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: so they don't even have to win a game anymore,
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: honestly to get the home field advantage, you know, throughout.
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: But at the same time, the Marlins, they're like, yo,
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: let's just go have some fun and ruin and ruin
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: this team here. Let's try and get this team out
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: of the playoffs. Something to play for. You got a
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: little chip on your shoulder, Yeah, I know, it's football
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: season now for that team. But at the same token,
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: whatever the manager wants me to throw, I'm gonna give
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: you fifty of the best pitches I got. I'm gonna
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: show the manager for next year what I got that.
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: I'm not gonna lay down just because we're losing and
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: we don't have a chance to get to the playoffs.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: So I would be more scared if I'm playing the
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: Marlins than I am the Brewers. But just because of
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: the fact the Brewers, it's like spring training right now.
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: Let me just get my two of bats and you know,
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: put the young gun in so I don't.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: You know, get hurt or have any problems moving forward.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: I like it. Hey, let's show the bracket. Let's take
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: a look at the postseason picture in the National League
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: where it stands at the moment. If the Mets win out,
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: or say, let's they go two and one and so
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: do the other teams right like they're in control, they
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: would end up with that last spot that nobody wants
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: in the National League and they would take on the Dodgers.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Padres are matching up with the Cubs. Winner of that
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: one would go on to face the Brewers. Phillies are
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: matching up with the winner of the Mets and the Dodgers. Man,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, Crats. It's not necessarily a fun ride for
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: the Phillies. By the way, if it ends up being
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Mets Dodgers, they have to play either the Mets or
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers. I think if I'm the Phillies, I would
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: definitely rather play the Cubs. Padres, I think you could
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: make a case either way there, and I would rather
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: play the Brewers. I mean, maybe that's going out on
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: a limb because they were the best regular season team,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: but I gotta see them be different in the playoffs,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: which hasn't been the case for the last half decade.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and the Brewers handled them during the season. To me,
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: I think the Phillies aren't afraid if it's the Mets,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: as long as they're not in City Field. You have
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: to win. You gotta win all three games, and it's
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: the it's a five game series, so you have to win.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: It puts so much pressure on it. But what do
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: we always say, the team that gets hot at the
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: beginning of the playoffs makes that run. You can't just
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: like kind of meander around at the beginning and then
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: hopefully get it going. You might as well play the
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: best team that you think's out there right out of
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: the gate, because you either got it or you don't.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: There's no runway, you don't have, you have any runway
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: runway here. You got to come out guns and blazing
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: right away.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a shorter.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: Yes it is.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: And I think Krata you said it well, which was
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: on the contrary last year. The team's going to come
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: in hot, and that's why this layoff to me. I
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: still think it's troublesome for a Brewer team and a
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: Philly team. Not saying they can't do it, but they're
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: taking Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, four to five days off
• 14:10
  Speaker 4: of not playing meaningful baseball. So I, in my opinion,
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: I still think that matters. I wish there was a
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: different format for that. I wasn't a guy that could
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: take four or five days off and be ready to rock.
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: It just wasn't in my nature. So yeah, this is
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: it's gonna be.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: It's gonna be one of those things where you think
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: one of those teams is gonna make a nice run,
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: like a team in the past has done well.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: I will point out last year, three out of four
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: by teams advanced right yep, you have prior years. In
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: prior years, it didn't happen. So either way, whatever happens,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: there'll be excuses coming from teams. We will look forward
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: to those excuses.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: What need it they need Trey Turner to get back.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying mund three Homers isn't isn't the answer.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: They're better team with Trey Turner in the lineup, and
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: he needs those extra days, so that could that could
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: save him. No players still, no players come out that's
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: currently playing and saying, dang it, I wish we didn't
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: have these next four days off to get healthy. Now,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: when they say that before the series, then I'll listen
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: to them.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Get after it like the Baltimore Orioles did with their
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Minions dress up. I'm not a Minions guy. I like them.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: I've never seen any of the movies. Like it's you know,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: I don't have kids, and it's what should I see them?
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: You have to you need, you need to see some
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Minions in your life, Scott, have.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: You seen it? Todd Father?
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I haven't seen the movie.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: No, let's go two to one.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: We got you that I'm not into. But I'm like,
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: what that that was cool?
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: What did you dress up as Todd? What was your
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: dress up?
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I was in a diaper and had a binky in
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: my mouth and a bib and that's yesterday.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: That was it.
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: And we walked six blocks in New York City to
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: get to our They dropped us off six blocks away.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: That was who That was something special.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Six blocks of glory, glory of.
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: Of eight miles in a diaper and sucking on a
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: BANKI and a bib on that was that was pretty.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: Nobody even nobody even looked, not even looked twice in
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: New York.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: It was the perfect place, so perfect place.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: That is true in fairness. In New York there's so
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: much going on at all times, and people dressed up
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: that I mean, walk through Times Square, you'd be like, oh,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: oh that. I'm surprised they didn't try to throw you
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: a few bucks, like we take pictures with you. Here's
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: a dollar that they took the Times Square crats. At
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: some point we're gonna laugh about how healthcare was so
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: reactive and not proactive, and we're starting to change that
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: with superpower. They believe every human has one hundred plus
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: year potential and they're here to help you get there.

• 17:25

• 17:52
  Speaker 1: we're back. Jose Burrios has been a model of health
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: for real. This is the first time he's placed on
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: the injured list in eleven years, and they're checking out
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: his elbow and that's concerning especially Kratzer Boy John Schneider
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: said that this isn't new. It's been an issue going
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: for a bit here, and I think it just reached
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: the boiling point.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: You saw a little bit of a decline towards the
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: end of the season too, And to go eleven years
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: and pitch in this day and age and to have
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: the success that he's had and not going to il
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: you hope this is not what we think it is.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: But this is a guy clearly was pitching through something
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: and you just got to get it right.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and you give them credit because they were fighting
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: to get in the playoffs here, and now that they're in,
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: it's like, all right, maybe I can keep going through
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: That's probably what the mindset was, you know, speculation, of course,
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: but maybe I could fight through this, get through it
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: and hopefully help this team in the playoffs and maybe
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: we could look at it later. But yeah, unfortunate, very unfortunate.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: I'd like the guy. I think he's been great. You know,
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: if I'm playing against him, he's a really good ball
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: play and this this is gonna hurt a little bit.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: And and if he was going through this, this is
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: a guy that he agreed to pitch out of the
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: pen on a random day. I think two or three
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: days ago, it was looking like he wasn't going to
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: be in the rotation for the playoffs, and he agreed
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: to pitch out the pen. So to do that and
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: you're hurting that to me, that's another level. But you know,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: we'd had to ask his teammates, you know how they
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: feel about it, because I think that's a that's a
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: boss move by.
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: Him, no doubt.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Gamer.
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: Yep, better than box scorers.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: We're gonna start with an Ale East report, Todd Father
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: taking over. What do you have for us on the
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: American League East clubs, the Blue Jays, the Yankees, and
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: the Red Sox heading into the final three days of
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: the regular season.
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this is uh the this is awesome. This is
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: just all I mean.
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: Listen, if you're if you're a fan of either team,
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: that goes my mic in the back of my head.
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: If you're a fan of either team, excuse me, this
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: is incredible. If you're a fan of baseball, this is incredible.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: They are both tied. I know the Blue Jays have
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: the tiebreaker, yep. But at the end of the day,
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: you just feel this Yankee team is getting hot at
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: the right time. It's unfortunate to me to think that
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: one of these teams, they're gonna have the second best
• 20:30
  Speaker 4: record in the American League, but they're gonna have to play.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: And they're not going to get a bye. You know.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: I just think that's the tough part about it. But again,
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: the Blue Jays have it all squared away. They're playing
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: against the Rays. It's gonna come down and who loses
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: one of these games out of the three. I don't
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: see either of them losing. But I do see some
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: close games and some you know, tightness coming of both sides,
• 20:54
  Speaker 4: like oh boy, tie game.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: Going in the eighth or ninth.
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: Like this is where you just sit back, you know,
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: have whatever you want, a root beer or glass avino,
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: whatever it is, and just enjoy this game of baseball,
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: because not only playoffs are great, but this last three games,
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: this last week, I really enjoy this even a lot
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: more because there's a lot more teams that are fighting
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: to get to where they need to be.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I would love to see I would love to
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: see these games go down to the last day. But
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: you talk about teams getting hot at the end of
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: the season, like ooh, that's what really propels them in
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: I know, in twenty eighteen. Every game down the stretch
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: mattered because we were trying to win the division. And
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: that's exactly what these guys are doing. We got a
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: day off, we beat the Cubs, they had to go
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: play the wild card. Now these teams have to go
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: play the Wildcard series. Winning the division is so key
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: and playing meaningful games, you're already getting the feeling, like
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: Todd said, that feeling like oh no, we're down by
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: a run. Oh no, we're up by a run. Oh oh,
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: we looked at the scoreboard, they're down by run. Now
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: you get that confidence. It just it's like a slow
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: it's a slow build into the crescendo that is the playoffs.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: And I think I think it'll set the teams in
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: the East apart from other teams in the league.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Also just want to clarify, the Mariners have a chance
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: still to finish with the top or second best record.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: So there is that chance. You're saying, yeah, there might
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: be the two top in the in the East. Right,
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: they're both ninety one and sixty eight, the Blue Jays
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: and the Yanks. Heading into the last weekend, Mariners are
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: ninety and sixty nine. They match up with the Dodgers.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: Dodgers not really playing for anything, so they're going to
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: get their ducks in a row. Mariners are right, I mean,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: Mariners are playing for some pretty serious home field situations.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: This is a team that wants to make the World Series.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: You want to you want to shove these last three games, right,
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: And we know cal Riley's trying to hit ninety home
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: in the last few days of the year. Sons might Yeah,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: well we know that. But I'm saying the Mariners still
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: have a chance to have the top record in the
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: American League. And so then everything goes through Seattle. Obviously
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: they want that.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and all the and all the and and with
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: the buy all their starting pitchers are going to pitch
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: essentially all the way to the end. The Brewers are
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: doing it a little bit differently. Some teams are not started,
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: not using all their starting pitchers. So to me, I
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: think it's a it's a it is something that it's
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: it's up for grabs, but not a shocker that it's
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: up for grabs in the American League East, the East
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: is a beast.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: It is, And I mean you also have Boston Todd
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: Father They're taking on the Tigers, Tigers need to still
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: win some games. It's looking likely that Houston will be
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: the team on the outside looking in, but not a
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: lock yet. So we'll keep an eye on the Red
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: Sox and the Tigers too. And did you guys see
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: this story about Trevor story there you go six errors
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: in his last seven games, five of them on throws
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: to first base. And I mean, there were a few
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: quotes postgame. The one that stood out to me was
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: him essentially talking about how it's not an excuse to
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: say that you're getting kind of tired at the end
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: of the year, but that can lead to lack of
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: diligence on completing the throw to first base. He said,
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: you know, you could say body tired, that's non excuse.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: Got to be very diligent about finishing the throw. Is
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: he kind of telling us that he's feeling it a
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: little bit right now?
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah? I guest, I guess I guess he is.
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: I mean, I you know, there's one thing that I
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: guess it's it's tough to say because if you're talking
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: about there's no excuse of being tired, does that that
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: means you're tired?
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: I mean, yes, first and foremost so yeah.
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: I mean, the season's long, but that's what you prepare for,
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: that's what you keep working out for and everything else.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: I give him credit for even saying it, because I
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: was too. I was exhausted. I think a lot of
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: guys are at the end of the day, and you know,
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: fortunate for them, he's he's still able to play. So
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: find a little mustard mustard in there and keep working
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: and you know, fake it. Go ahead, man, get out
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: there and fake it. Get some energy, and you take
• 25:16
  Speaker 4: another coffee. Whatever it is you have to do to
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: get energized. You know, got a couple of weeks of
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: trying to win a World Series. Wake it up, get it,
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: get an IV in you something, get going.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: And if they clinched tonight, maybe give him a couple
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: of days off because you need him to be upright
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: and not making throwing mistakes once per game in the
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: final days off.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: They days off, No, No, those are bad. Those make
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: teams lose days off. Never right, Todd, Oh, here we go.
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: This This is a cratsy problem because he whatever he says,
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: is right that that's the issue we're having here. I
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: want to play more baseball games. I don't want to
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: sit around for five days. I want to divy and
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: I'm the top guy and I'm not playing. I'm frustrated.
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: I want to play man. And then this team's coming
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: in hot as can be. I don't want to play
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: those teams.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's case by case. So my point with Trevor
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: story is if he's clearly indicating he's filing a little bit,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: then it's load management.
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: But yeah, the guy needs a break, you give him
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: a break.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: By the way, the Tigers did win a game, so
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: that helped for them to get on the board early
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: with a couple solo homers. Riley Green also homerd later,
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: which helped give him a little extra insurance as they
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: pulled off the four to two win. Eventually, will Vest
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: looked like he was celebrating winning the World Series, and
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not criticizing. I'm saying you should because they hadn't
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: won in like two weeks, So celebrate that thing. You
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: need to make the playoffs, right, It's one thing that
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: you're giving up the division, but you need to make
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: the playoffs, and that win was critical for them to
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: do so, otherwise they'd be tied. Well, they're they're tied
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: right with the Astros right now, but then the tiebreaker
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: or is it one back there?
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: One on.
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: Up?
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: But then they also have the tiebreaker, so technically it's two.
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: So it's lucky. How lucky are the Astros?
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: Man?
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: It doesn't.
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: It's ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. They're gonna get in by default
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: pretty much.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: No get in other way, Astros are a game back
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: of the Tigers.
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: And and the Red Sox too, aren't they right there
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: like one one behind them?
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: But for Boston, I mean, so Boston, here, here we go,
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: because I know there's a lot going on this week
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: right now. The Yankees don't have the tiebreaker with the
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: Blue Jay. Soon they're the first wildcard. Then you have
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Boston as the second wildcard, one game clear of the
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: next team, which is Detroit. So Boston then they play
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: each other. It gets interesting if there's a suite on
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: one side or the other. That's to me where it
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: gets interesting.
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: If yes, yes, if there's a sweep, it's in Houston
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: wins two out of three. Listen, they're they're gonna win.
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: They're gonna win all their games. In my opinion, I
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: don't see Houston losing. So I think Boston or Detroit
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: is going to be the odd man out.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: Would I would say, I would say it's the other way,
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: but really but yeah, I mean, I feel like I
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: feel like Boston and Detroit are going to kind of
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: beat each other up and Houston has to They got
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: to do more. They have to sweep, and I don't
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: know if they're playing good enough right now to sweep.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: We'll see, yeah, but big win. And also I mentioned
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: Riley Green. He's got thirty six homers on the season.
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: He really slumped during this time period for the Tigers,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: but overall in the year, he's had a banger year.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: So he was really catching a lot of flakl Like
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: this was supposed to be our superstar carry us back
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: out of this, but he's had a really nice year.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: American League postseason picture looks like this. Tigers and Guardians.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: Why not matching up? If things hold off this way,
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: and then they'd play Seattle, then Red Sox Yankees first round?
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: How you doing? And then they'd match up against the
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Blue Jays. So we have all the divisional stuff get
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: out of the way nice and early. When you think
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: fair Harbor, you should think soft, you should think buttery liner.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: But it's not just the bathing suits, are the shorts.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: It's also sweatshirts like the one that I'm wearing right now, Kratz.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: It is stupid soft.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: It's ridiculous that a shirt that can one keep you warm,
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: two be so soft, and three so lightweight like the
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: collar everything. You don't even feel like you actually have
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: a hoodie on, but you do.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: It is a lightweight hoodie and it feels incredible. So
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: you should go get one yourself. Also for bathing suits,
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: for shorts, for whatever clothes that you're interested in where
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: you want to basically feel like you're not wearing them
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: but you are. That's what Fair Harbor can bring to

  Speaker 1: promo code foul twenty. One thing I've learned about our sports,
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: specifically with John Fisher, the owner of the A's, is
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: if you read something on social media and you think
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: it's a joke, it's probably not. Example, z, the scoreboard
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: at the ballpark that he's using for the next few
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: years was not working for the start of the Astros
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: A's game. I'm just gonna leave it out there for
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: you guys.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: They're playing a travel ball game.
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: I love that nobody knows the score and you can
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: give out a hit if you really want, even if
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: it was an error, Like, yeah, that's my that's my boy,
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: that's my son.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: I'm giving it a hit. No, Worri, It's all good.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, so the A's are so the A's
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: and John Fisher are looking at game changer now, is
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: that what you're saying they're following. They're following it on
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: game changer, like single to left fielder with like the
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: fake the fake noise.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah no, that is no chance. What that is. The
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: thing that still gets me crazy is like you'll be
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: watching the game and they're like, oh, they're bringing in
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: a lefty. Oh, here comes the bench bats from left field.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: They were just swinging. Now they got to get back
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: to the bench in case they're needed. I'm like, jeez,
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: this is it's beyond embarrassing. It probably stands out less
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: just because the A's were knocked out of it so
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: early on this year with the losing whatever twenty out
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: of twenty one or something crazy back in the May area.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: But I'm just embarrassed for the sport. Everybody else in
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: the industry that doesn't have control of this feels the
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: same way. But it'll keep going for a couple of years,
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: so get used to it. Hey, Yankees Giants Opening Day
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: next season on March twenty fifth, on Netflix, standalone game.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: I like having one game to start off the season.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: I like that portion of the equation. I don't like
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: when there's a bunch. I like it's like everyone's dying
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: for baseball. You get one game, right, and everyone dials
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: in just because they want to see ball, and then
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: the rest of the team's followed. You guys agree, I agree?
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well should be well, should be the Reds. For years,
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: the Reds would play the first game of the year.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Why why No, I don't believe in that.
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: You don't believe in that oldest.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: Know the Reds always gets okay with that. I'm okay
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: with that. I don't think that the Reds are the
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: ones that get to be the showcase every single year.
• 32:30
  Speaker 6: No, sorry, I agree. I agree, but but home, Yes,
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: they had the parade, the whole deal. We were there
• 32:38
  Speaker 6: last this past season. It was It's freaking awesome.
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: But I'm saying for the game to showcase itself nationally,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: I think to only pick one team just because they
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: were whatever the history is, I think it has more
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: to do with just them having the home game to
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: start the year.
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: If that's the case, Rutgers in Princeton should be playing
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: college football games the first game every year. And no, no,
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: nobody besides us Scott want to see that.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: So because they're a little strapped crats.
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: If you didn't know, Rutgers in Princeton were the first
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: ever college football game ever to play ever, So.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: There you and those schools are located in New Jersey's craft.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: That I knew.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: A few minutes here. I want to go over matchups
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: for the weekend. What are you looking at? Obviously about
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: half of the matchups over the weekend are relevant, But
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: what are you watching? I'm with you, going off what
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: you were just saying. During the break for the TV crowd,
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: todd Father was talking about how the Marlins saved up
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: Sandy al Contra to finish his Marlin's career at home.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: I think he's going to get traded this offseason. Guys,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: So I think Sandy pitches in Miami one last time,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: and this is his opportunity to play spoiler against Brandon Sprute,
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: who did not think he was going to be essentially
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: pitching a playoff game for the Mets in Miami on
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: September twenty sixth, But thus that is happening. So I
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: will be dialed on that one. What else do we like?
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: I like Gallon against Darvish. I mean it's a fun
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: pitching matchup. I want to see what Darvish looks like
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: heading into the postseason. And they saved up Gallon, so
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: a lot of heat on Gallon. The Diamondbacks probably have
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: to win out the next three games to have a chance.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: What else?
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Boston Boston Boston Tigers. That's a layup, that's chalk. You
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: have to go see it. And the big thing I'm
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: watching is Casey Mice. Casey Mice, if this team, if
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: the Tigers, who I think they're going to make the playoffs,
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: does anything, he has to return to his first half
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: form or maybe like three quarters of the way through
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: the year form, because they are counting on him, and
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: they need him for this run that they're going to
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: make in the playoffs. And the Tigers do hit lefties decently.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: They came out and they banged MESSI around a little bit.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: Who been pitching? Well, Kyle Harrison's on the mound. It's
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: not a given that the Tigers lose this game.
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: Hey, yeah, you go ahead.
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: And then I'm just thinking both the Blue Jays and
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: the Yankee games. I'm very intrigued, very intrigued to see
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: how this one plays out.
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: That's all.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: Can I ask you guys a question. So our sport
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: definitely has spread the rock around to a million different
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: networks and streamers and all of that, right, but so
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: does NBA, so does NFL, et cetera. I've heard a
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: lot again about you know, oh, this game's on Apple,
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: So I think tonight it's it's Boston and they might clinch,
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: and then you know, people are are up in arms.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can sign up for the service for
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: a free trial and then watch the game. Like some
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: people are like, it's not a bit like I won't
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: be able to watch it. I'm like, and I get
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: the money part, but I'm like, hey, I mean I've
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: done it. Before you can get a free trial. I'm
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: freezing again. Great when I'm trying to make my hear
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: me though, Like what am I now? If you want
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: to hear your broadcast? I get that part. And actually,
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure they do this. They did, we did
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: this for you, Like they'll put the radio feed in
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: there where you can toggle and you can listen to
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: your if you want the Homer call, like you can
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: get that. So I'm just genuinely asking, like, why are
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: people so angry? Like You're not going to have a
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: world where your local broadcast is just carrying everything for you.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: That's just not how sports work in the current landscape.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: So I think them at least giving you the radio
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: feed if you don't like the national call, what else
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: do you want?
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I just think people are used to having their
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: cable networks making it easier turn the TV on, click
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: to their certain channel, and boom.
• 36:33
  Speaker 3: That's all. That's it. We talk about old school ways.
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: That's probably it.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because people are like, oh, like, because this happened
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: with the Dodgers with Kershaw start last season, they were
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: the dork of the week for a lot, I'd want
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: to ask a lot. I'm like if you're in LA,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: you can still get the Apple game. Just sign up
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: for a free trial and watch the game.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: And fans are going to complain about different stuff, just
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: like players are going to complain when you play every day.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: You want your routine exactly the same. But come on,
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: let's be honest. Like you can sign up. You're signing
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: up for Amazon to watch the Thursday night football games.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: When they first started playing those games, Amazon's getting a
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: million sign ups. That's why Apple's doing it. It's because
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: people want to watch these games. Good for Apple going
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: out on the limb getting these games. Maybe they could
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: do a better job of calling the games. Hey they're
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: still young, they're growing. But to me, just sign up
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: for it. Just sign up for it.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is not a paid anything. Trust we do
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: nothing with them. I'm just throwing that out there. You
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: can also toggle to the radio broadcast and listen to them.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: I know it's not perfect, perfect world. You just get
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: your Homer broadcast. That's what many people want. But it's
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: just I mean, the NFL doesn't do that at all
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: for any games during the regular season. So just throwing
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: it out there. I just I just had been seeing
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: it pop up again lately where they're like, oh, they
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: should make a way for it to still be on
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: the local broadcast. But I'm like, it's not like you
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: can't get the game. You can get the game, and
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: you can get the game for free with a trial,
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: so you're paying zero dollars. You can't get it forever,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: but for a free trial, you can get it for
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: that one game you're trying to watch.
• 38:08
  Speaker 2: Get on your phone if you want, some people. If
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: you only have cable and you don't have like the
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: ticket or something, it's gonna be a little bit tougher
• 38:15
  Speaker 2: to get on your phone. But you can watch it
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: outside sitting on alone chair. All right?
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: Two things to do quick here for slap or make
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: it three things to do? I guess so. Toddy best
• 38:37

• 38:51
  Speaker 1: seen him in the booth or something. Todd Father he's nice.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: This can be. He's been in the game for a while.
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: I love his calls. I think he's got like a
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: really homey feel the way that he's called Nats games
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: for a long time. So cheers to him. His sign
• 39:03

• 39:05
  Speaker 1: why he's like, I got a new job. It's to
• 39:07

• 39:11
  Speaker 1: we love you. Congratulations. They're going to do a ceremony
• 39:14
