- 0:25Speaker 2: We know exactly what we got to do.
- 0:27Speaker 1: All right?
- 0:28Speaker 4: Let's go out and kick some shit. One, two, three.
- 0:31Speaker 1: We got some big plays coming.
- 0:32Speaker 2: What the hell's going on?
- 0:34Speaker 1: Come on out here.
- 0:35Speaker 5: Yellow Weasel.
- 0:36Speaker 3: Quit calling the plays, all right?
- 0:38Speaker 6: It is time.
- 0:38Speaker 2: What do you think you are?
- 0:40Speaker 1: I am.
- 0:40Speaker 2: With Drew Olsen.
- 0:41Speaker 5: When he spoke, he commanded your attention and he commanded
- 0:45Speaker 5: your respect.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Bill Schmidt. That son of a gun is thick.
- 0:48Speaker 1: And Armin Sarian.
- 0:50Speaker 2: Daddy Sarian.
- 0:51Speaker 1: Welcome to the huddle.
- 0:55Speaker 7: Huddled up on a Tuesday. It's game day in the
- 0:58Speaker 7: good land. Game four tonight at the Trop Brewers trying
- 1:00Speaker 7: to close it out. And join the 76 Reds as
- 1:04Speaker 7: the only team to sweep championship series and world series
- 1:06Speaker 7: in a single postseason. But the asterisk is that the
- 1:11Speaker 7: LCS back then was best of five.
- 1:13Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:14Speaker 6: Any time you can be in with the 76 Reds,
- 1:18Speaker 6: I think that's great company to be in. And the
- 1:22Speaker 6: dominance of this crew, Drew, cannot be understated. It should
- 1:26Speaker 6: add a lot of positivity. And I would think. optimism
- 1:30Speaker 6: for a Brewers fans that tonight will be a celebration
- 1:33Speaker 6: and tomorrow might be the least productive day in Milwaukee
- 1:36Speaker 6: sports history in terms of what you're doing at work.
- 1:39Speaker 2: We kind of teed it up earlier.
- 1:40Speaker 7: The discussion that will happen if, and when, when the
- 1:43Speaker 7: Brewers win the world series, who's the MVP, who's our
- 1:46Speaker 7: current electric superhero of the day. Do we have to
- 1:48Speaker 7: split the baby and give it half to cheerio and
- 1:50Speaker 7: have to Bobby diesel because gasser was incredible yesterday and
- 1:54Speaker 7: he's had some great to go on game three again
- 1:56Speaker 7: on the road in a hostile environment. and to put
- 1:59Speaker 7: up zeros the way he did, to face the minimum
- 2:02Speaker 7: through six. He was at 75 pitches. I was wondering
- 2:04Speaker 7: if they were going to try to roll the whole
- 2:05Speaker 7: game with him. I thought he was going to keep going.
- 2:07Speaker 6: And then when Sensatella came up and grabbed two for you,
- 2:10Speaker 6: it felt phenomenal. Didn't it almost seem Murph was saying
- 2:14Speaker 6: like earlier in the classes, this isn't tryouts, but didn't
- 2:17Speaker 6: it seem like everybody wanted to get a little taste
- 2:18Speaker 6: last night and get in and get there.
- 2:20Speaker 2: When he gets Louise, Laura, the courtesy at bat last night.
- 2:23Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, get everybody in there.
- 2:25Speaker 3: Come on.
- 2:25Speaker 7: Ortiz, Laura, big crop pop. Gary Sanchez got to catch
- 2:29Speaker 7: it in it. You got to catch it for, for
- 2:31Speaker 7: Woody there at the end.
- 2:32Speaker 2: I thought he might throw. I meant it wouldn't, but
- 2:34Speaker 2: I thought to myself, can we get Gary in the mouth?
- 2:36Speaker 6: When that text came through from Drew, it was one
- 2:39Speaker 6: of the hardest I've laughed. Some of the hardest I've
- 2:41Speaker 6: laughed in quite some time was Sanchez going to pitch
- 2:43Speaker 6: last night before Woodruff. He was going to open for Woodruff.
- 2:47Speaker 6: They had the human victory cigar lit for two innings,
- 2:50Speaker 6: warming up Harrison for the seventh and eighth and started
- 2:53Speaker 6: loosing him up in case they weren't going to be
- 2:55Speaker 6: able to have Woody finish that thing off. I was
- 2:58Speaker 6: going to give it to Gasser because he's not going
- 3:00Speaker 6: to get the shine he deserves, but on the stage
- 3:02Speaker 6: here tonight when they named the MVP. And I'm really
- 3:06Speaker 6: struggling to see who it's going to be.
- 3:08Speaker 2: I would vote Contreras. He would be my vote.
- 3:12Speaker 6: I would very much understand anybody's statement as to why
- 3:15Speaker 6: they're voting for Churio for the kind of at-bats and
- 3:18Speaker 6: the incredible efficiency.
- 3:20Speaker 2: That he's put together.
- 3:21Speaker 6: But I think Contreras has just been so dominant. Gasser
- 3:24Speaker 6: last night was the reason why you're able to have
- 3:26Speaker 6: this celebration, though, here today. When he faces the minimum,
- 3:29Speaker 6: gives up the base hit the D as the start.
- 3:32Speaker 6: And then immediately is nails through Andrew.
- 3:34Speaker 7: He has erased on an ill-advised steel attempt over sliding
- 3:37Speaker 7: the bag, which is awful with Caminero up ridiculous. And
- 3:41Speaker 7: and then he walked a guy and then that guy
- 3:43Speaker 7: was erased in a double play, right?
- 3:44Speaker 6: Double play wiped out two base runners gone instantly. And
- 3:47Speaker 6: maybe the best part is after the fifth inning finishes
- 3:51Speaker 6: out with six more outs and just comes in and
- 3:53Speaker 6: pounds the zone again. You sounds a lot easier to
- 3:56Speaker 6: say just throw strikes. Just play catch with the catcher,
- 3:59Speaker 6: but it's game three. You've now been sitting for 30
- 4:02Speaker 6: some minutes. They show all the shots of him loosening
- 4:05Speaker 6: up and trying to stay fresh in the dugout for
- 4:07Speaker 6: him to go out there and finish those next two innings.
- 4:09Speaker 6: You mentioned the pitch count wasn't a problem, but that
- 4:11Speaker 6: little rest and layover isn't always the easiest thing. Robert
- 4:15Speaker 6: Gasser going to be your current electric superhero of the day.
- 4:18Speaker 7: Call current.com the website. You see the superheroes on the
- 4:20Speaker 7: side of the van inside the van as well. Call
- 4:22Speaker 7: current.com current electric.
- 4:24Speaker 2: And they got big news.
- 4:26Speaker 6: Uh, their winter special winter upgrade special save 200 bucks
- 4:29Speaker 6: on heat tape installation outside 75 bucks on outdoor qualifying jobs.
- 4:35Speaker 6: Call current.com. Get that house ready for the winter because
- 4:39Speaker 6: it's coming.
- 4:40Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:40Speaker 4: You know, and I said to myself, I said that
- 4:43Speaker 4: obviously you get, you get all that, uh, Oh, someone's
- 4:46Speaker 4: calling for a championship.
- 4:47Speaker 2: President's calling. Yeah, that's right.
- 4:49Speaker 6: Come on.
- 4:50Speaker 2: Let's get it in. Get all those runs. Fantastic. And
- 4:52Speaker 2: your gas is like, all right, this is great.
- 4:54Speaker 4: But those are going to be different outs than you
- 4:55Speaker 4: had to get the rest of the night. Like, it's
- 4:57Speaker 4: not necessarily easy. Obviously, you want the lead. Obviously, that's
- 5:00Speaker 4: a great thing. But you have to try and remain focused. Obviously,
- 5:03Speaker 4: your arm's been cold, but you have to remain focused
- 5:05Speaker 4: and to still try and do your job. Being aware
- 5:07Speaker 4: of the situation of the score, you know, that those
- 5:10Speaker 4: are different outs than you've had to get all night.
- 5:12Speaker 2: And he's done a great job. He's been the Brewers'
- 5:14Speaker 2: best starter without a doubt in this playoffs.
- 5:16Speaker 6: And now he just gets to go and, I mean,
- 5:18Speaker 6: play like seven on in the outfield grass. He's just
- 5:23Speaker 6: slinging the pigskin all around. They have some great shots
- 5:26Speaker 6: of them at practice here tonight at the Trop. What
- 5:28Speaker 6: do you think? More Brewers fans here tonight in Tampa?
- 5:32Speaker 6: Or are there going to have been more at the
- 5:35Speaker 6: game last night?
- 5:37Speaker 2: Ooh, that's a good question. I think more tonight. It
- 5:40Speaker 2: was as close.
- 5:40Speaker 7: A lot of people dipped on, they just thought, we'll
- 5:43Speaker 7: watch that one at a bar and then we'll go
- 5:45Speaker 7: for four and five.
- 5:46Speaker 6: It was as close to a 50-50 split as I
- 5:48Speaker 6: could possibly say.
- 5:49Speaker 2: And then today you got the newcomers coming.
- 5:51Speaker 7: The question is, will there be more Brewers fans in
- 5:54Speaker 7: the trop or at American Family Field?
- 5:58Speaker 4: Oh, I mean, American Family Field will be packed again tonight.
- 6:00Speaker 2: 31,000 they had, right? Yeah, that's what they had. They
- 6:02Speaker 2: don't sell them all, obviously.
- 6:03Speaker 7: The only seats where you can't see the scoreboard, they
- 6:05Speaker 7: don't want you sitting where you can't see the scoreboard.
- 6:07Speaker 2: But, I mean, they were first to fourth level last night, right? Absolutely, yes.
- 6:10Speaker 2: They were all the way through? All the way up.
- 6:11Speaker 4: They just didn't sell bleachers and upper corner and corners.
- 6:15Speaker 2: Bleachers and corners. Were the seats assigned? Assigned, yeah. They
- 6:17Speaker 2: were assigned. I got assigned seats tonight. It's like wherever.
- 6:20Speaker 4: All right. Armand, are you going back tonight, Armand? Yeah,
- 6:22Speaker 4: I'll be back tonight. So, assigned seats. And, you know,
- 6:25Speaker 4: people were milling around, obviously. Well, most of the night,
- 6:28Speaker 4: but mostly after the, you know, after the beginning and
- 6:30Speaker 4: a lot of people treat it as an opportunity just
- 6:32Speaker 4: to gather, be together. At first I was getting a
- 6:35Speaker 4: little bit like, you know, people were talking and milling
- 6:38Speaker 4: about and getting up and getting having, yeah, having a
- 6:41Speaker 4: normal life. I mean, we're watching the game here, people.
- 6:43Speaker 4: All right.
- 6:44Speaker 2: This isn't supposed to be a fun thing. I'm just kidding.
- 6:46Speaker 2: But a little bit.
- 6:47Speaker 4: No, especially once the runs came in, it was an
- 6:50Speaker 4: electric atmosphere. It was an awesome crowd pop crowd moment.
- 6:55Speaker 4: it was weird because it was like, you know, they're
- 6:56Speaker 4: not playing, but it was almost like you're, you're at
- 6:58Speaker 4: a game. And there was, it was as good of
- 7:01Speaker 4: crowds are better as I, you know, of all the
- 7:04Speaker 4: 25 years of that stadium, there've been a lot worse
- 7:09Speaker 4: crowds for actual games. So It was pretty cool last night,
- 7:12Speaker 4: and I'm sure it'll be awesome again tonight. There's also
- 7:14Speaker 4: probably not a bad place to be celebrating here tonight.
- 7:16Speaker 4: The Deer District shots looked pretty cool. They looked pretty sweet.
- 7:21Speaker 4: Every bar is a brewer's bar right now.
- 7:22Speaker 6: Yeah, every bar is as close to a Kelly's Bleachers
- 7:25Speaker 6: as you can have. And I was at the Pottawatomie
- 7:29Speaker 6: Sportsbook for game one. Game four here tonight, their tables
- 7:34Speaker 6: are already sold out here for tonight, but you can
- 7:36Speaker 6: obviously go and watch it at the annex where we
- 7:39Speaker 6: do The Thursday night huddle, they'll have plenty of people
- 7:41Speaker 6: and drink specials going on. Wherever you do, I imagine
- 7:46Speaker 6: it feels like one of those nights, Drew, where people
- 7:47Speaker 6: are going to want to be around others, though. There's
- 7:51Speaker 6: a lot of celebration. There's some good times that you
- 7:53Speaker 6: can always have in the personal celebration that you can
- 7:56Speaker 6: have at home and the cheers.
- 7:58Speaker 2: In the living room.
- 7:59Speaker 6: But it feels like one of those nights that people
- 8:01Speaker 6: are going to be trying to do anything they can
- 8:02Speaker 6: to be out there.
- 8:03Speaker 2: I think so.
- 8:03Speaker 4: They'll be part of it, part of the moment. And
- 8:06Speaker 4: that's the key. It's being part of them all and
- 8:07Speaker 4: being together. You mentioned the tickets in Tampa. They did
- 8:12Speaker 4: look at TicketData.com, my favorite guy, TicketDataKeith on Twitter.
- 8:15Speaker 2: They spiked after the win.
- 8:17Speaker 4: Which he said was unusual because usually for a home park,
- 8:21Speaker 4: they drop. But then again, that's the brewer's effect. And
- 8:24Speaker 4: then they're dropping now slowly. So the get-in price now.
- 8:26Speaker 2: Is down to $ 7. 24 from like $ 800 or $ 900 earlier
- 8:28Speaker 2: in the day. There you go.
- 8:32Speaker 7: That's the get-in price at the Trop. Our pal Red
- 8:35Speaker 7: Hot Tim Scott will be in the crowd tonight. Bought
- 8:37Speaker 7: himself a ticket. Billy, what did you see signs for parking?
- 8:40Speaker 7: What were they getting for parking around there?
- 8:42Speaker 6: They were online getting a couple hundred bucks on the
- 8:46Speaker 6: secondary market because all theirs were sold out. There was
- 8:48Speaker 6: one spot that I saw somebody selling spots, I think,
- 8:52Speaker 6: for a hundred bucks. So it was high. However, there
- 8:56Speaker 6: were a lot of people that were just walking from...
- 8:59Speaker 6: God knows where. It seemed like we're going to park
- 9:03Speaker 6: wherever and we're just going to figure it out. I
- 9:05Speaker 6: saw two Brewers fans walking and my GPS said I
- 9:08Speaker 6: was still a mile and a half away from the stadium.
- 9:11Speaker 6: And he had the clear bag, so you knew where
- 9:13Speaker 6: he was going. So it's truly in the middle of nowhere.
- 9:16Speaker 6: So many times they say it's hard to get here.
- 9:18Speaker 6: It's hard to get here. Is it just that it's.
- 9:19Speaker 2: In the middle of an island? It really is the island.
- 9:22Speaker 6: I mean, it's that you got to drive across that
- 9:25Speaker 6: bridge on whatever it is, 275 or whatever it was
- 9:28Speaker 6: on the freeway. And I can assume during rush hour,
- 9:34Speaker 6: the four or five o'clock, six o'clock, right? When you're
- 9:36Speaker 6: trying to get over there for a game, you could
- 9:39Speaker 6: sit on that thing for an hour and a half.
- 9:40Speaker 6: Like it would be a, it could easily be the
- 9:43Speaker 6: parking lot that you would dread. And one of the
- 9:45Speaker 6: reasons why you wouldn't go, it's not a bad spot,
- 9:48Speaker 6: not a bad area. It's definitely not where you would anticipate.
- 9:52Speaker 6: There would just be a big stadium to hang out in,
- 9:54Speaker 6: but there's one great bar and everybody was hanging out
- 9:58Speaker 6: there and everyone was finding their way there.
- 10:00Speaker 7: A lot of people wonder what they would draw or
- 10:02Speaker 7: what the crowd composition would be like if the ballpark
- 10:06Speaker 7: was closer to Tampa proper or Ybor City and some
- 10:09Speaker 7: of those Westport.
- 10:10Speaker 2: The new one might be, right?
- 10:11Speaker 6: The new one is going to be over by Raymond
- 10:13Speaker 6: James from what it sounds like, which will be a
- 10:16Speaker 6: lot more accessible. It also looks like a gorgeous park,
- 10:18Speaker 6: but I thought the Trop was fun.
- 10:20Speaker 2: It was cool.
- 10:21Speaker 6: It also was more fun since it was basically a
- 10:26Speaker 6: Brewers home game is very rude to say.
- 10:28Speaker 2: Hard to have fun.
- 10:29Speaker 6: But I've been at a lot of Brewers home games
- 10:31Speaker 6: with less Brewers fans than there were last night. I
- 10:33Speaker 6: was going to say, hard to not have fun in
- 10:34Speaker 6: that situation. I mean, especially with that many traveling fans and,
- 10:37Speaker 6: of course, that kind of production and output.
- 10:39Speaker 2: We have breaking news from the Trop. Come on now.
- 10:42Speaker 2: I don't want to steal it from Hunter. But the
- 10:44Speaker 2: Brewers have changed their lineup. Uh-oh.
- 10:48Speaker 7: It's just that Sal Freelick and Garrett Mitchell switched spots
- 10:51Speaker 7: in the lineup.
- 10:51Speaker 2: Other than that, it's the same thing. Oh, my goodness.
- 10:53Speaker 2: He's a slugger now.
- 10:55Speaker 7: Churio, Bowers, Yellich, Contreras, Terang, Freelick in the sixth hole, Pratt, Mitchell, Hamilton.
- 11:03Speaker 2: Okay. Okay.
- 11:04Speaker 3: Wow.
- 11:04Speaker 2: I'm kind of surprised for that. I don't know. Well,
- 11:06Speaker 2: I don't know if they're going to be able to
- 11:08Speaker 2: win the World Series now. No, I didn't mean it
- 11:09Speaker 2: like that. I just, you know, I didn't mean it
- 11:11Speaker 2: like that. They swapped spots. There we go. Okay.
- 11:14Speaker 7: Mitchell's down in the order.
- 11:16Speaker 2: And Sal up because Sal's the hot hand.
- 11:19Speaker 4: If he continues what he's been doing the last two days,
- 11:22Speaker 4: it's hard to question that his barrels has been hitting
- 11:24Speaker 4: balls hard and everything.
- 11:26Speaker 6: So we already got the flags out. We already got
- 11:28Speaker 6: the fans rolling through for stretch. The game is three
- 11:31Speaker 6: hours away and people are already in here. And yet
- 11:34Speaker 6: nice young girl sign says I'm skipping school for this
- 11:37Speaker 6: in Milwaukee.
- 11:38Speaker 2: That's fine.
- 11:38Speaker 6: There was a lot of school being skipped yesterday. And
- 11:41Speaker 6: one of the cooler things that happened in the stadium
- 11:43Speaker 6: was you. There was the moment where all the Rays
- 11:47Speaker 6: fans started leaving. Plenty of Brewers fans started to come
- 11:50Speaker 6: from the upper levels and go down to.
- 11:52Speaker 2: The lower level.
- 11:53Speaker 6: But there was also that moment where you could scan
- 11:55Speaker 6: the crowd and see people drew onto their phones looking like,
- 11:59Speaker 6: all right, maybe I do buy some tickets tomorrow. There
- 12:01Speaker 6: was a nice family in front of us, two boys.
- 12:03Speaker 6: The mom was looking at every hotel imaginable that they
- 12:07Speaker 6: were staying in to extend the trip because they were
- 12:10Speaker 6: not missing going here tonight. And there were a lot
- 12:13Speaker 6: of extending trips. There were a lot of folks that,
- 12:15Speaker 6: I mean, you do just forget how many people have
- 12:18Speaker 6: enough of the cold and decide to go move down
- 12:20Speaker 6: to Florida. Cause there's a lot of people I know
- 12:23Speaker 6: that are now full on Florida residents that said, this
- 12:27Speaker 6: is just too good to miss it. Having it be
- 12:29Speaker 6: in our backyard. I'll drive four hours from Jacksonville or
- 12:32Speaker 6: five hours or wherever I am in Fort Lauderdale. However
- 12:35Speaker 6: long it takes me to drive across the state. I'll
- 12:37Speaker 6: find my way there. And I think there's a lot
- 12:39Speaker 6: more folks doing that here today. Kevin Millar. How do
- 12:43Speaker 6: you inspire a three Oh series?
- 12:45Speaker 2: Come back, Kevin. There's no Dave Roberts on this race team.
- 12:48Speaker 2: Sorry about that.
- 12:49Speaker 7: Armin's the most nervous member of our three musketeers here.
- 12:52Speaker 7: And I'm the guy who covered that series in 04
- 12:56Speaker 7: when the Red Sox came back from three down. And
- 12:59Speaker 7: they lost game three, 19 to eight.
- 13:04Speaker 2: Good point. Yes.
- 13:05Speaker 7: And so imagine like, okay, so the Brewers boat raced
- 13:08Speaker 7: double that basically. It was 19 to eight in game three.
- 13:12Speaker 7: So I wrote my game story just absolutely burying the
- 13:15Speaker 7: Red Sox.
- 13:17Speaker 2: Over good night.
- 13:19Speaker 7: And i had to wear it when they came back
- 13:21Speaker 7: and won and so i was at that series covered
- 13:24Speaker 7: that in its entirety and it's still now i realize
- 13:27Speaker 7: that that is such an outlier that's the equivalent of
- 13:31Speaker 7: getting eight straight you know two out runs well seven
- 13:34Speaker 7: straight two out hits.
- 13:35Speaker 6: Or whatever yeah and you also look at now that
- 13:37Speaker 6: team you realized how bona fide and how legit they
- 13:40Speaker 6: were at the time Now you look at in hindsight,
- 13:42Speaker 6: 20 some years later and realize just how many great,
- 13:45Speaker 6: great players were on that Red Sox team. But like
- 13:48Speaker 6: they're going up against a slouches from 03 Yankees.
- 13:50Speaker 4: Right.
- 13:51Speaker 6: But like you start realizing, man, that is a historic
- 13:55Speaker 6: team on that side that ended up pulling off something
- 13:58Speaker 6: that's only been done one time. And if there's any
- 14:00Speaker 6: kind of pucker factor, I think it happens more. Drew,
- 14:03Speaker 6: you would be able to tell from being in there.
- 14:06Speaker 6: Did the rivalry have anything to do with it? It
- 14:09Speaker 6: feels like the emotion in that side, that's one of
- 14:11Speaker 6: the reasons why that one happened way back when. I
- 14:14Speaker 6: can't see any way these Rays are getting up off
- 14:17Speaker 6: the mat after that eight run.
- 14:18Speaker 7: So that was 22 years ago. And in the interim,
- 14:24Speaker 7: we talked about how hard it is just to win
- 14:25Speaker 7: game four when you're down 3-0.
- 14:27Speaker 2: Just to make it.
- 14:28Speaker 7: The Yankees in 2024 were the first team since the
- 14:31Speaker 7: 1970 Reds to win game four after losing the first
- 14:33Speaker 7: three games of a World Series. Both of those teams
- 14:36Speaker 7: lost in five right now. The idea of a game
- 14:40Speaker 7: six is about as remote as I could possibly be,
- 14:42Speaker 7: because if the Rays were to get one tonight, I
- 14:44Speaker 7: still like the Brewers chances tomorrow.
- 14:45Speaker 6: Yeah, because I still think that they're going in and
- 14:48Speaker 6: winning tomorrow. And whatever it was, so that would have
- 14:51Speaker 6: been the 24 World Series, right, against the Dodgers in
- 14:54Speaker 6: which they had that. That was, if I'm not mistaken, too,
- 14:58Speaker 6: that was the game where they had a lead in
- 15:00Speaker 6: game five and didn't judge drop the ball in center
- 15:02Speaker 6: field and started a run for the Dodgers where they
- 15:07Speaker 6: played at five in the fifth inning and ultimately ran
- 15:10Speaker 6: away from the Yankees because they were leading in there.
- 15:12Speaker 2: It is tough.
- 15:14Speaker 6: To run this kind of inside straight that it is
- 15:16Speaker 6: going to take for not sure to beat an upset
- 15:20Speaker 6: and pull off a historical comeback.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Yes.
- 15:23Speaker 6: I think to win two games against this team right now,
- 15:25Speaker 6: it's going to take somewhat of an inside straight. They're
- 15:28Speaker 6: the best team and the hottest team. And that's a
- 15:30Speaker 6: recipe for generally. taking it off the sheet like the
- 15:34Speaker 6: 19 Red Sox or the 18 Red Sox did.
- 15:36Speaker 4: Everything you guys are saying is true. Your logic's not flawed.
- 15:39Speaker 2: It's flawless. I agree.
- 15:40Speaker 4: I just, you know, you just want to see that
- 15:42Speaker 4: last one go through. That's the only thing, because you
- 15:45Speaker 4: don't want to become that outlier, I think. And that's
- 15:48Speaker 4: only for the Eeyores. Not Eeyores is the wrong word,
- 15:51Speaker 4: because Eeyore implies you never believe.
- 15:52Speaker 2: I mean, I believe, of course.
- 15:54Speaker 4: But that's for the true nervous Nellies amongst us. That
- 15:59Speaker 4: are afraid of that cookies. Like you ending like me, that,
- 16:02Speaker 4: that fear, like the worst of the cookies theory.
- 16:04Speaker 2: But listen, I think you guys are absolutely right.
- 16:08Speaker 4: And I'm not, I'm trying to manifest good things. So
- 16:11Speaker 4: let's embrace it. Let's embrace it. Like you said, Billy,
- 16:13Speaker 4: let's embrace those good things. Let's enjoy it. Charles Miller
- 16:17Speaker 4: on YouTube. Let's go brewers.
- 16:19Speaker 2: Absolutely. Will said, we're not hungry. We're starving.
- 16:21Speaker 4: Will D I love that. Mike Witt saying I'm going
- 16:26Speaker 4: for big bills, MVP. If they win it tonight, A
- 16:29Speaker 4: lot of great comments coming in.
- 16:31Speaker 2: John K.
- 16:32Speaker 4: let's get May through the third with no damage. JoJo,
- 16:34Speaker 4: then DL, then our big three to close it. Well,
- 16:36Speaker 4: that sounds good to me on paper. Getting May through
- 16:39Speaker 4: three would be pretty good. I think that'd be a success.
- 16:41Speaker 4: If he got through three.
- 16:42Speaker 2: Once through the order.
- 16:43Speaker 6: Yep.
- 16:43Speaker 2: That's all you need.
- 16:44Speaker 4: You call that a success because his control's been a
- 16:47Speaker 4: little bit shaky, but he's been okay. He's been fine.
- 16:51Speaker 4: He had his outing in game two. Yeah, I would
- 16:55Speaker 4: say so.
- 16:56Speaker 7: So, again, like we talked about, the breaks have gone
- 16:59Speaker 7: the Brewers way. The Brewers are doing to well, they're
- 17:02Speaker 7: doing to the Rays what they did to the Dodgers.
- 17:03Speaker 7: And they're doing they're doing it. They're stomping on.
- 17:06Speaker 2: The Rays the way that the Dodgers did to them
- 17:09Speaker 2: last year.
- 17:11Speaker 7: And everything Kevin Cash has done, like, well, I mean,
- 17:13Speaker 7: sitting Aranda Hicks and Palacios, like three of your best
- 17:16Speaker 7: guys last night.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Bold strategy choice. Yeah.
- 17:20Speaker 7: And like every bunt they've had has led to an
- 17:23Speaker 7: out that didn't lead to runs and like everything they're doing.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Good point.
- 17:26Speaker 7: And they're, they're normally like pretty, really good defensively. And
- 17:31Speaker 7: like how many, you know, a lot of rockets going
- 17:32Speaker 7: off guys and the, pop-ups, the Yelich pop-ups that they
- 17:35Speaker 7: didn't catch in left field.
- 17:36Speaker 2: Walls is, if.
- 17:38Speaker 6: Not the best, one of what the three best defensive
- 17:40Speaker 6: shortstops in ball for him to not be able to
- 17:43Speaker 6: make that play against terrain. Like it's, it's scolded, right?
- 17:46Speaker 6: Like that, that is a tough play to make, but
- 17:49Speaker 6: one that he's generally made throughout the year. One of
- 17:50Speaker 6: the reasons why he is, he's their guy. Yeah. Drew, they,
- 17:54Speaker 6: they have been on, they've been abnormally off. And I
- 17:59Speaker 6: think a large portion of it is the credit that's
- 18:01Speaker 6: due to the crew because of the kind of pressure
- 18:03Speaker 6: that that they apply to you. And, man, you have
- 18:06Speaker 6: such a group that is as connected as the Brewers
- 18:10Speaker 6: are right now.
- 18:11Speaker 2: It's tough to slow that kind of roll.
- 18:13Speaker 6: I mean, the team of destiny, whatever it is, there
- 18:16Speaker 6: were a couple of Rays fans that were telling Brewers
- 18:18Speaker 6: fans that last night. You guys are the team of destiny,
- 18:20Speaker 6: so go and enjoy it. There's, I think, a little coke,
- 18:23Speaker 6: but just a lot of truth to it. It appears
- 18:26Speaker 6: that they're playing with a different level of it. And
- 18:29Speaker 6: if they are fully kicking dirt, in the face of
- 18:32Speaker 6: their opponent like the Dodgers did to them. Who hits
- 18:35Speaker 6: the three home runs tonight? Who has the Shohei game
- 18:39Speaker 6: here tonight? My guess would be Churio. And if he
- 18:43Speaker 6: does that, he does take World Series MVP probably off
- 18:45Speaker 6: the sheet.
- 18:46Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that would be a safe bet. Yeah,
- 18:48Speaker 4: there's no question if he did something like that.
- 18:49Speaker 2: I mean, he's hitting like 530 in this series. It's
- 18:51Speaker 2: pretty wild. Or 580. And Contreras is hitting 530.
- 18:54Speaker 6: I was going to say, I think he's 8 for
- 18:57Speaker 6: 14 with a double and three steals.
- 19:00Speaker 7: They both had two hits in games one and two.
- 19:02Speaker 7: And then Churio had four to three. So he leads
- 19:05Speaker 7: by a hit.
- 19:06Speaker 2: Basically.
- 19:07Speaker 6: Yeah, they just flashed it up. Eight for 14 for Churrio,
- 19:09Speaker 6: seven for 13 for Contreras. Three runs driven in for Contreras,
- 19:13Speaker 6: but throwing out the base runners that he has as well.
- 19:15Speaker 6: And I know last night the overslide of second base
- 19:18Speaker 6: isn't that he beats him with the throw, but the
- 19:22Speaker 6: swag that he has on hitting seven of nine ABS
- 19:25Speaker 6: challenges and the one that Smoltz is like, I just
- 19:28Speaker 6: don't even know why you're doing that. I don't even
- 19:31Speaker 6: get why you're doing that one. Well, because he's right
- 19:33Speaker 6: and all of a sudden the count flips around and
- 19:36Speaker 6: There's a bunch of swag in that moment.
- 19:38Speaker 4: Even when you're that sure. Yeah, but you're up 2-0
- 19:40Speaker 4: in the third. I just don't understand it.
- 19:43Speaker 2: I don't know what.
- 19:43Speaker 4: That was really bizarre. I don't know what's hard to get.
- 19:45Speaker 4: I mean, everything matters at this stage. Yeah, you're up
- 19:48Speaker 4: to nothing in the third. So a lot of things
- 19:51Speaker 4: can happen. Joe Davis very accurately.
- 19:53Speaker 6: Also questioned Smoltz last night when he said, well, only
- 19:57Speaker 6: plays at second base with the yellow. When he goes,
- 20:00Speaker 6: even with the catcher Contreras running to first Yeah.
- 20:04Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:05Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.
- 20:07Speaker 2: I don't know about that one.
- 20:08Speaker 1: Maybe.
- 20:08Speaker 3: Maybe.
- 20:08Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he gets contrarian.
- 20:10Speaker 7: Ray's legend Evan Longoria is going to throw out the
- 20:12Speaker 7: first pitch tonight and Neo's performing the anthem. Yesterday was
- 20:16Speaker 7: Carly Pierce and then they had Joe Madden go to
- 20:18Speaker 7: James Shields.
- 20:19Speaker 2: For the first pitch last night. Billy, were you in
- 20:21Speaker 2: the house for that? Yeah, I was.
- 20:23Speaker 6: I started booing Joe Madden. I didn't know if that
- 20:25Speaker 6: was I didn't know if that was appropriate. I didn't
- 20:26Speaker 6: know if that was too far on first pitches, but
- 20:29Speaker 6: then big game James came out. I gave him a
- 20:31Speaker 6: nice little golf clap. He was very excited. Poor Austin
- 20:34Speaker 6: Meadows drew. They flash this guy up to try to
- 20:36Speaker 6: get the crowd going going into the bottom of the
- 20:39Speaker 6: fifth inning. He's just he's like grimacing on the on
- 20:43Speaker 6: the screen like maybe get loud.
- 20:45Speaker 3: Let's go.
- 20:46Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 20:46Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 20:47Speaker 2: Why not? After what just happened? It can't hurt. Yeah. Oh, wow.
- 20:51Speaker 2: You got to try. That's rough. There were no more
- 20:52Speaker 2: crazy cap shuffles after the fifth inning.
- 20:55Speaker 4: Wow.
- 20:55Speaker 2: It was crazy how that happened. It was. Crazy how
- 20:59Speaker 2: that happened. Crazy how that happened.
- 21:00Speaker 4: Do they have a video board that can sustain it?
- 21:03Speaker 4: I kept seeing that strip board of the line score.
- 21:06Speaker 6: Yeah, and then that strip board also kept telling the
- 21:08Speaker 6: 50-50 raffle number. You want to talk about a 420 story?
- 21:12Speaker 6: What are you high? $ 194, 000 last night.
- 21:17Speaker 1: Damn.
- 21:18Speaker 2: To the winner of the 50-50 raffle.
- 21:19Speaker 7: So obviously people weren't buying $ 35 beers.
- 21:22Speaker 2: They were pouring it into 50-50.
- 21:23Speaker 6: They were just funneling it into the 50-50 raffle.
- 21:26Speaker 2: How much are the tickets?
- 21:28Speaker 4: It was up to $ 25, 000 last night at American Family Field.
- 21:31Speaker 2: That's pretty good. Yeah, it was great. I can't believe
- 21:34Speaker 2: that number.
- 21:34Speaker 7: That's a great 420 because it's brought to us by

- 22:32Speaker 1: Plenty.
- 22:32Speaker 3: All right. We're going to show you Brewers fans here.
- 22:35Speaker 2: There we go.
- 22:35Speaker 3: In the back over my one of my shoulders.
- 22:42Speaker 1: Oh, no.
- 22:42Speaker 2: They cut his data. They cut his data. They cut
- 22:45Speaker 2: his data. That dang Rays owner. They cut his data.
- 22:49Speaker 6: Not wanting to let anybody know about the takeover of
- 22:52Speaker 6: the drop.
- 22:52Speaker 2: Unbelievable. Your data.
- 22:54Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 22:54Speaker 2: You got us now.
- 22:55Speaker 3: You got us now.
- 22:58Speaker 2: He's going to have to call. Look at that smile.
- 23:01Speaker 2: Too many Brewers fans. Man, look at that.
- 23:03Speaker 6: Beautiful smile he's got in there on the video stream, though.
- 23:06Speaker 6: That was a delight. Like, no other.
- 23:09Speaker 2: If you had to freeze a frame on something, it
- 23:11Speaker 2: was that.
- 23:12Speaker 7: Yeah, Hunter, no more wheeling around, because it seems like
- 23:14Speaker 7: you have good reception right where you're standing.
- 23:16Speaker 1: Okay.
- 23:17Speaker 7: All right.
- 23:18Speaker 5: I will not move an inch for the rest of
- 23:20Speaker 5: this interview.
- 23:21Speaker 4: Too many influencers down there using their GoPros and their
- 23:24Speaker 4: tripods and... for the you know the butt scratch podcast
- 23:28Speaker 4: or whatever they let everybody in these days right hunter
- 23:30Speaker 4: is that what it is.
- 23:32Speaker 5: Well here i will uh there's a man named a
- 23:35Speaker 5: legend named dennis krause who's just to my left right
- 23:37Speaker 5: now who is uh who's uh yeah here i'll i'll
- 23:40Speaker 5: risk it there he.
- 23:41Speaker 1: Is there he is i would only do this if
- 23:45Speaker 1: hunter was involved.
- 23:46Speaker 6: Correct he makes us all do crazy things dennis that's
- 23:50Speaker 6: right that is awesome that is awesome so.
- 23:53Speaker 5: Anyway but yeah yeah we got a lot yep A
- 23:56Speaker 5: lot of people doing different things.
- 23:58Speaker 2: That's amazing.
- 23:58Speaker 7: Hunter, Dustin May getting the ball tonight. What's the outlook
- 24:04Speaker 7: for him? Is he one time through the order that
- 24:06Speaker 7: Brewers have arrested Penn thanks to what happened last night?
- 24:09Speaker 2: What is your outlook?
- 24:12Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that's about right. Probably one time through
- 24:16Speaker 5: the order. I asked Pat Murphy about it and he
- 24:17Speaker 5: didn't give anything away necessarily, but just said, we'd like
- 24:21Speaker 5: a guy who's got experience in this spot. Obviously he's,
- 24:24Speaker 5: he's got world series experience. He's got playoff experience.
- 24:26Speaker 3: So it makes sense for him to, to be on
- 24:28Speaker 3: the mountain tonight.
- 24:29Speaker 5: Last time in LA, they used an opener, went with
- 24:31Speaker 5: Shane Drowan, and now they're going to go with him
- 24:33Speaker 5: to start the game. So we'll see how that impacts
- 24:36Speaker 5: things and how he pitches, but hopefully this can be,
- 24:38Speaker 5: you know, we saw really good Dustin May for the
- 24:40Speaker 5: first couple of starts at a bird's uniform.
- 24:42Speaker 3: And then since then, it's just been such a rocky road.
- 24:44Speaker 5: It would be awesome if you can get, I think
- 24:46Speaker 5: it's a win if you can get through the first
- 24:47Speaker 5: time through the order, no runs, and I think it
- 24:49Speaker 5: sets up well for your bullpen. Maybe then you bring
- 24:51Speaker 5: in a Shane Throne. Maybe, you know, then somehow you've
- 24:54Speaker 5: got to bridge that. Maybe a JoJo Romero, obviously, as well.
- 24:56Speaker 5: Somehow bridge that gap to get to your Aaron Ashby,
- 25:00Speaker 5: your Abner Uribe, your Trevor McGill with either tied or
- 25:04Speaker 5: taking the lead there, and then you finish it with
- 25:06Speaker 5: your guys.
- 25:07Speaker 6: There's a moment in time that you could think of D.L.
- 25:11Speaker 6: Hall handing the ball back to Murph, and all of
- 25:14Speaker 6: a sudden there's 14 outs to get or 16 outs
- 25:16Speaker 6: to get. and he's getting Abner Uribe in. How long
- 25:21Speaker 6: do you think both Uribe, Ashby, McGill, what do you
- 25:25Speaker 6: think the.
- 25:25Speaker 2: Leash or innings limit that you're trying to touch?
- 25:30Speaker 6: All three guys are rested, but you do know that
- 25:32Speaker 6: you potentially have to pitch them tomorrow. How tough do
- 25:36Speaker 6: you think or how much do you think they'll lay
- 25:39Speaker 6: it on the line here tonight with those three guys
- 25:41Speaker 6: in particular?
- 25:43Speaker 5: I was thinking about that because if the game is
- 25:46Speaker 5: in grasp, I think they're going to try to win
- 25:48Speaker 5: this thing and take this stuff. Because I don't think
- 25:51Speaker 5: they're going to worry about tomorrow. If they're up a
- 25:53Speaker 5: couple of runs, it's kind of like what happened in
- 25:55Speaker 5: game four, right? Murph saw it in Ashby's eye and said,
- 25:58Speaker 5: you know what? You're going to finish this game. And
- 26:00Speaker 5: you're going to go out there and finish this game
- 26:01Speaker 5: in L.A. I kind of see the same thing happening.
- 26:03Speaker 5: Not that they'll necessarily leave Ashby in at that time,
- 26:06Speaker 5: but kind of.
- 26:07Speaker 3: Go for it there, right? And so I would say
- 26:09Speaker 3: get to the sixth inning and have.
- 26:10Speaker 5: Those three guys ready and you're in good shape, right?
- 26:12Speaker 5: You can get two out of Ashby. You can get
- 26:14Speaker 5: one out of McGill and one out of Uribe, however
- 26:16Speaker 5: you want to face it. Usually what he's done is
- 26:19Speaker 5: Uribe maybe in the six. Depends on when the top
- 26:21Speaker 5: of the order is coming up for the other team
- 26:23Speaker 5: and matchups and all of that. But so I would
- 26:26Speaker 5: think that's about where you want to be, and that's
- 26:27Speaker 5: really been the strategy throughout the postseason, right? Get to
- 26:31Speaker 5: that sixth inning when you have those three guys, and
- 26:33Speaker 5: it's worked nearly to perfection.
- 26:36Speaker 7: How about the radical change in the lineup today, flipping
- 26:38Speaker 7: Freelick and Mitchell? That's the only real change, but it's
- 26:42Speaker 7: the first change we've had in the World Series.
- 26:45Speaker 5: Right, exactly. Almost identical. And we know Murphy doesn't put
- 26:49Speaker 5: out identical lineups very often, you know, consecutive days. So
- 26:52Speaker 5: this has been a little different. But hey, Sal's, I mean,
- 26:54Speaker 5: Sal's hitting the ball well. He should have had another
- 26:56Speaker 5: hit that Chandler Simpson took away last night. And then
- 26:59Speaker 5: third time's a charm down that line towards where Billy
- 27:01Speaker 5: was sitting.
- 27:02Speaker 3: And Chandler Simpson couldn't get to that one.
- 27:05Speaker 5: So that was, I think it makes sense that Freelink
- 27:08Speaker 5: moves up a little bit. Obviously, Mitchell didn't have a
- 27:10Speaker 5: bad night either. But but Sal moves up and boy,
- 27:13Speaker 5: he's just he's such a big Mitchell and Hamilton. Both
- 27:17Speaker 5: were at the podium before the before the game. You'll
- 27:19Speaker 5: hear it on the pregame show coming up tonight.
- 27:21Speaker 3: Just after six.
- 27:22Speaker 5: But both talking about how Sal is a glue guy.
- 27:24Speaker 5: That guy does so much for that clubhouse. And he
- 27:28Speaker 5: for him to come back from that shoulder. And obviously
- 27:30Speaker 5: he dove last night and we.
- 27:31Speaker 3: All held our breath.
- 27:32Speaker 5: But like he for him to come back from that
- 27:34Speaker 5: shoulder and come back as quick and be as you know,
- 27:37Speaker 5: he had a rough September offensively. It wasn't great, but
- 27:40Speaker 5: in October to come up big in some of these
- 27:42Speaker 5: big moments has been awesome and his teammates love it.
- 27:45Speaker 2: Who's your MVP, Hunter?
- 27:48Speaker 5: We had that discussion on the drive to the park today.
- 27:51Speaker 5: Who would it be right now? Eileen William Contreras right now,
- 27:55Speaker 5: just the series he's having offensively, the postseason he's had,
- 28:00Speaker 5: the ABS challenges, the guy's just on a roll right now,
- 28:04Speaker 5: and obviously catching a couple of runners too. I would
- 28:07Speaker 5: say we're at three. I think he's got now in
- 28:10Speaker 5: the series. I would say he's the leader right now,
- 28:12Speaker 5: but you have a moment from another guy and who knows.
- 28:15Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:16Speaker 4: I think, you know, the totality of what William does,
- 28:19Speaker 4: but if Jackson Cheerio goes all Reggie Jackson tonight, you know,
- 28:22Speaker 4: anything could happen in that regard as well.
- 28:24Speaker 3: Right.
- 28:24Speaker 2: So some things could change. That's for sure. Yeah.
- 28:28Speaker 7: Hunter, did you wear old clothes or are you prepared?
- 28:31Speaker 7: You got to be ready for a possible the mother
- 28:34Speaker 7: of all clinchers.
- 28:37Speaker 3: Right.
- 28:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 28:38Speaker 5: You think about clinch scenarios, this would be the top.
- 28:41Speaker 5: I'm as ready as I'll ever be. We're just going
- 28:43Speaker 5: with the same strategy as the previous ones.
- 28:46Speaker 3: You go in and whatever happens, happens.
- 28:48Speaker 5: Because if you're going into a champagne celebration tonight, that
- 28:52Speaker 5: means this is the first time the birds have ever
- 28:54Speaker 5: won the World Series. At that point, clothes could be
- 28:57Speaker 5: replaced at that point.
- 28:59Speaker 6: At what point during this run as you've been running
- 29:01Speaker 6: and gallivanting all across the West Coast and the country,
- 29:05Speaker 6: covering this team's quest for their first ever world title,
- 29:09Speaker 6: did you believe that they could win the world championship?
- 29:14Speaker 5: That's also a discussion we had on the way back
- 29:16Speaker 5: to the hotel last night it's.
- 29:17Speaker 6: A great question i wasn't eavesdropping i'm telling you i
- 29:20Speaker 6: was not in your uber i apologize.
- 29:22Speaker 5: I'm like man yeah maybe the phone the phone was
- 29:25Speaker 5: connected um that's a it's a good question uh some
- 29:29Speaker 5: of the discussion in the car was it when they
- 29:31Speaker 5: forced yamamoto out game two early in game two of
- 29:34Speaker 5: the nlcs um that was an answer that was tossed
- 29:37Speaker 5: around for me it was that it was the the
- 29:40Speaker 5: Bowers and Mitchell back-to-back homers against Snell. That was against
- 29:44Speaker 5: Snell in Game 3 of the NLCS. Snell was just
- 29:49Speaker 5: dominating the Milwaukee Brewers. The offense was there. He was cruising.
- 29:55Speaker 5: And then it just flipped on a dime on.
- 29:57Speaker 3: That long at bat.
- 29:58Speaker 5: And the Brewers go on to win that game. And
- 30:00Speaker 5: that was when, okay, now they're a 3-0. Obviously, it's
- 30:03Speaker 5: hard for any team to come back to the 3-0 deficit.
- 30:06Speaker 5: Now you make the World Series. And then coming into
- 30:07Speaker 5: the World Series, I'm like, they should win this series.
- 30:09Speaker 5: They're a better team in the race. They simply are.
- 30:11Speaker 3: The Rays are a really good team.
- 30:12Speaker 5: They won 98 games. They won the AL and all that.
- 30:15Speaker 5: Brewers are a better team. They're the best team in
- 30:17Speaker 5: baseball this year. And I just think. It is shown
- 30:20Speaker 5: in the postseason going 10 and one. So I would
- 30:23Speaker 5: say that that when that game turned against Snell in L.A.,
- 30:26Speaker 5: not that like in the moment, I was like, oh,
- 30:28Speaker 5: my gosh, they're going to win the whole thing. But
- 30:29Speaker 5: like that's when you start to believe that. OK, yeah,
- 30:32Speaker 5: this team that we've seen throughout the regular season has
- 30:35Speaker 5: showed up in the postseason and they may have, you know,
- 30:38Speaker 5: dusted off the cobwebs a little bit in that Padre series.
- 30:40Speaker 3: And since then, I've just been cruising.
- 30:42Speaker 7: I was the early adopter because as soon as Churio
- 30:44Speaker 7: won game two, I said they're winning the series when
- 30:47Speaker 7: they beat Mason Miller.
- 30:49Speaker 2: I'm like, this train ain't stopping. It took me a
- 30:54Speaker 2: little bit to believe with the Dodgers. Oh, don't even
- 30:56Speaker 2: act like you. Don't even act like this. You're still
- 30:59Speaker 2: nervous now.
- 31:00Speaker 1: Mr.
- 31:00Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't want to put the cart
- 31:01Speaker 2: ahead of the horse.
- 31:02Speaker 6: They were 8-1 in the playoffs, and they just foray
- 31:05Speaker 6: trained the number one team in the AL.
- 31:07Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you're going to win the fourth one, but
- 31:09Speaker 2: you're right.
- 31:10Speaker 4: No, but I think we became, at least for me,
- 31:13Speaker 4: believers when you saw them beat the Dodgers. I mean,
- 31:18Speaker 4: and get that second win, get that third win.
- 31:20Speaker 2: Oh, this could happen.
- 31:21Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 31:21Speaker 2: Yeah. Fair enough. Hunter, anything else you've gathered today? Anything
- 31:25Speaker 2: else you need to tell us? Not necessarily.
- 31:30Speaker 3: I think this is a game that the Brewers.
- 31:34Speaker 5: You know, I'm just watching all these fans coming into
- 31:37Speaker 5: the section behind the dog.
- 31:38Speaker 2: Does it feel like more than yesterday?
- 31:41Speaker 3: I was going to ask you, I would say 45% yesterday.
- 31:44Speaker 3: What do you say?
- 31:45Speaker 6: That was because I said about between 40 and 50.
- 31:48Speaker 6: So 45 would be right in between there. That was,
- 31:51Speaker 6: but we were, the Brewers fans were definitely louder, had
- 31:53Speaker 6: more to cheer about, but they were, they're definitely drunker.
- 31:56Speaker 6: Like that was, that was an undeniable part of it.
- 32:00Speaker 6: Definitely were partying longer than the Rays fans were. But
- 32:03Speaker 6: I'd say about 45%. So seems like potentially more here now.
- 32:09Speaker 5: I mean, there is definitely a bigger contingent right now
- 32:13Speaker 5: right around batting practice than there was yesterday.
- 32:15Speaker 3: It's not crazy big, but it's there's.
- 32:17Speaker 5: More and they're all gathered over there watching the guys
- 32:20Speaker 5: stretch and everything. And I think the players are acknowledging
- 32:23Speaker 5: them a little bit, which is awesome, too.
- 32:25Speaker 3: I mean, look, the Brewers came out here yesterday.
- 32:28Speaker 5: For to stretch at this exact time and Bauer said
- 32:31Speaker 5: I came out and I saw the Brewers fans and
- 32:32Speaker 5: he literally said it calmed his nerves a little bit
- 32:34Speaker 5: like this this is having an effect on this team
- 32:37Speaker 5: and there's no doubt about it it's awesome to think
- 32:39Speaker 5: that you can have that effect by making the trip
- 32:42Speaker 5: or going to Ampham Field for these games so that's
- 32:45Speaker 5: awesome so yeah I think this could be over half
- 32:49Speaker 5: I mean think about it from a race perspective right
- 32:51Speaker 5: I mean it's it's your team's down 3-0, so it
- 32:53Speaker 5: just depends on what your perspective is. Do you want
- 32:56Speaker 5: to just go to a World Series game, a World
- 32:57Speaker 5: Series game that your team could lose the series on,
- 33:00Speaker 5: or do you just say, you know what, we're just
- 33:01Speaker 5: going to go to the World Series anyway?
- 33:03Speaker 2: It depends.
- 33:04Speaker 3: So this could be 50-50, or maybe even a little better,
- 33:07Speaker 3: Brewers fans.
- 33:08Speaker 4: We'll see.
- 33:08Speaker 7: All right, Hunter, on the way out here, what's the
- 33:10Speaker 7: Augs box situation like? Billy told me you were basically
- 33:13Speaker 7: on top of the batter's eye in center field.
- 33:15Speaker 2: It looks sweet.
- 33:19Speaker 5: It was a unique perspective I that was one where
- 33:23Speaker 5: it's like a home run could definitely be hit to
- 33:24Speaker 5: be here and you don't usually feel that when you're
- 33:26Speaker 5: in any sort of press box situation but yeah it's
- 33:29Speaker 5: right out there in center field basically almost dead center
- 33:33Speaker 5: is where I'm sitting and it's a cool yeah definitely
- 33:36Speaker 5: a cool perspective this is a park that you almost
- 33:39Speaker 5: have to experience to get an understanding for like it's
- 33:42Speaker 5: it's it took me about 30 minutes on Sunday when
- 33:45Speaker 5: we came here for the workout to like really take
- 33:47Speaker 5: a grasp of what this stadium is and like, what am.
- 33:49Speaker 3: I looking at?
- 33:50Speaker 5: It feels like a college basketball arena, but then it's
- 33:52Speaker 5: like bigger. And, but then like, it's also incredibly strange lighting.
- 33:57Speaker 5: And then the Brewers are shooting pop-ups way into the
- 33:59Speaker 5: sky to try to practice.
- 34:00Speaker 3: And so it's just, it's wild.
- 34:02Speaker 5: Obviously it gets really loud because it's a dome and
- 34:04Speaker 5: the Brewers fans were making it loud last night when
- 34:06Speaker 5: they had that eight run fifth inning. So it is,
- 34:10Speaker 5: it's an interesting atmosphere here, no doubt, but it's, it's cool.
- 34:13Speaker 3: It's unique. I mean, that's a good word for it.
- 34:14Speaker 3: It's unique in a way.
- 34:16Speaker 6: It's a great place for a celebration, and I got
- 34:18Speaker 6: a feeling you're going to have a number of them.
- 34:21Speaker 6: The last part and the last question for me is,
- 34:24Speaker 6: are you able to see all of the My Dog
- 34:27Speaker 6: shirts that got to be littered through that Brewers clubhouse?
- 34:29Speaker 6: Because I think everybody's gotten one of them from Big
- 34:32Speaker 6: Papi now, and everybody's gotten cigars from him throughout this run.
- 34:38Speaker 2: I got to assume it's going to be.
- 34:39Speaker 6: A very, very well smoked out clubhouse with maybe a
- 34:42Speaker 6: number of those shirts. Have you seen any of them
- 34:44Speaker 6: rocking them? Because I got to imagine basically every Brewers
- 34:46Speaker 6: got one at this point.
- 34:49Speaker 3: It feels like it.
- 34:50Speaker 5: I mean, you win 10 games in the postseason and
- 34:53Speaker 5: six of them have been on Fox.
- 34:55Speaker 3: Well, all of them have been on Fox, but six
- 34:56Speaker 3: of them have been with this main crew. So there's
- 34:59Speaker 3: seven of them, seven of them, right? Four against the Dodgers.
- 35:01Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 35:02Speaker 3: Seven of the 10 have been with the main crew.
- 35:03Speaker 6: So.
- 35:04Speaker 5: I got to think that there's a lot of those.
- 35:06Speaker 5: I haven't seen them rocking them. You know, this team
- 35:09Speaker 5: is very team oriented. So maybe they're, you know, they're like,
- 35:12Speaker 5: you know what, we're just going to focus on the team.
- 35:13Speaker 5: I may have, you know, I may, I may wear
- 35:15Speaker 5: it during the off season, but maybe not right now. So,
- 35:18Speaker 5: and maybe that's why, but, but they are, Hey, this
- 35:21Speaker 5: team is full.
- 35:22Speaker 3: Of dogs and there's no doubt about it.
- 35:24Speaker 6: So I lied. I got one last one. Cause I
- 35:26Speaker 6: just saw a video of that. Lily's outposted of Jimmy
- 35:29Speaker 6: Nelson talking with, with Brandon Woodruff.
- 35:33Speaker 2: Right around the crowd.
- 35:34Speaker 3: But so just what how many how.
- 35:37Speaker 6: Many former brewers i saw ricky weeks walking out of
- 35:40Speaker 6: the park last night prince fielder was there how many
- 35:42Speaker 6: former brewers are you seeing out there enjoying the moment
- 35:46Speaker 6: because i think jimmy's wearing the hat from the 2018
- 35:49Speaker 6: playoffs so i got to imagine it means something to
- 35:52Speaker 6: him to be able to see them do this.
- 35:55Speaker 5: I'm telling you, yeah, a lot of these brewers have
- 35:57Speaker 5: talked about that. And I think a lot of them
- 35:59Speaker 5: take pride in building the foundation for this.
- 36:02Speaker 3: And they really did.
- 36:03Speaker 5: I mean, at the end of the day, right, like
- 36:04Speaker 5: a Ryan Braun or, you know, these guys who built
- 36:07Speaker 5: the foundation, got the team back to the playoffs, won
- 36:10Speaker 5: the division in 2011. Like, this is something that they
- 36:13Speaker 5: obviously wanted to do themselves, but unfortunately were not able to.
- 36:17Speaker 3: But still, they laid the foundation for.
- 36:19Speaker 5: The brewers having this run of success and having this
- 36:21Speaker 5: chance at a World Series title.
- 36:23Speaker 3: So, Yeah, they're definitely proud. I haven't seen as many today.
- 36:25Speaker 3: I just got out.
- 36:26Speaker 5: Here when I joined you guys, so I haven't been
- 36:28Speaker 5: able to peruse the warning track, but I would think
- 36:35Speaker 5: that more and more are starting to show up.
- 36:37Speaker 3: I did see Rock. Rock was walking around when I
- 36:39Speaker 3: came out of the interview. So Rock is here, and
- 36:43Speaker 3: I'm sure there's a lot. Absolutely. Phenomenal.
- 36:45Speaker 2: Hunter, enjoy.
- 36:46Speaker 7: We will be chatting at you one way or another tomorrow,
- 36:50Speaker 7: and We will be listening to you just after 6
- 36:53Speaker 7: o'clock at the baseball pregame show.
- 36:57Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely. You'll hear from Pat Murphy.
- 36:59Speaker 5: You'll hear from Garrett Mitchell and David Hamilton who met
- 37:01Speaker 5: with us as well. And we'll dig into the possibility
- 37:04Speaker 5: of what could be tonight as well after 6 o'clock.
- 37:07Speaker 2: Thanks, guys. Excellent.
- 37:08Speaker 7: Hunter Baumgart brought to us by Community Roofing. Visit communityroofing.com.
- 37:12Speaker 7: Time for us to exit the stage. We will close
- 37:15Speaker 7: up any loose ends that we have and continue to
- 37:18Speaker 7: get ready. For what could be the final game of
- 37:21Speaker 7: the Brewers championship run. The 2026 championship season could end
- 37:24Speaker 7: with a championship.
- 37:27Speaker 2: Several hours away. Finally. You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
- 37:33Speaker 7: One more.
- 37:34Speaker 6: One more.
- 37:39Speaker 2: Solo uno mas.
- 37:41Speaker 3: One more.
- 37:42Speaker 2: Only one more. Brewers need one more victory to reach
- 37:46Speaker 2: baseball heaven. Oh, my goodness.
- 37:48Speaker 7: Heights not reached in these parts since 1957. Forget the
- 37:52Speaker 7: 44 years. Forget that.
- 37:55Speaker 4: 1957.
- 37:55Speaker 1: Yes.
- 37:56Speaker 7: The only World Series championship in Milwaukee baseball history. Shout
- 38:00Speaker 7: out to the Braves and the Braves Historical Association. Those
- 38:03Speaker 7: guys are doing a great job.
- 38:05Speaker 2: Great team. And they're going to get to celebrate everything tonight.
- 38:07Speaker 1: Right.
- 38:07Speaker 6: I mean, like there's going to be a lot of
- 38:09Speaker 6: people taking some celebration laps and things.
- 38:12Speaker 2: Or is it going to be a like a. If
- 38:15Speaker 2: they wouldn't have.
- 38:16Speaker 6: Gotten it, it would have been for everybody that still
- 38:18Speaker 6: has evolved a little bit of like a toast Miami
- 38:21Speaker 6: Dolphins style.
- 38:21Speaker 2: It was still the only one. I don't think they're
- 38:24Speaker 2: going to do it that way.
- 38:26Speaker 6: There's no Mercury Morris in that group.
- 38:29Speaker 2: No, no, no.
- 38:31Speaker 6: There's no Mercury Morris to be holding the.
- 38:34Speaker 4: Candles and we can't do that. You know, I always
- 38:36Speaker 4: wondered that. What if the Dolphins themselves were the team
- 38:39Speaker 4: to go undefeated? Would they be happier because it's their franchise?
- 38:43Speaker 2: No, I'm going to say no. No, I, yeah, I'm
- 38:45Speaker 2: with you, Drew. I don't believe so. They want all
- 38:47Speaker 2: the shine for themselves. Yeah.
- 38:49Speaker 4: I guess so. Well, let's not worry about it. Let's see. No,
- 38:52Speaker 4: not everybody wants this. Everybody wants it. Former players, current,
- 38:57Speaker 4: obviously fans, observers, former managers, anyone associated with it. Milwaukee
- 39:02Speaker 4: and former Milwaukee and everyone wants this. It's you can
- 39:07Speaker 4: just taste it. And it just, it's almost painful to
- 39:10Speaker 4: be so close, you.
- 39:11Speaker 7: Know, It's going to be wild. Dustin May with the
- 39:14Speaker 7: ball tonight. Griffin Jacks for the raise. But Dustin May
- 39:18Speaker 7: for the Brewers, followed by.
- 39:21Speaker 2: Does it matter? Everybody's been good out of the chute.
- 39:23Speaker 6: I was just going to say, I really don't think
- 39:25Speaker 6: it matters too much, Drew. I think it's going to
- 39:27Speaker 6: be fine whoever ends up being there. He will be
- 39:31Speaker 6: on the proverbial short leash. But again, probably, you know,
- 39:34Speaker 6: if you can get one through the order, if you
- 39:35Speaker 6: can get him for three innings, that sets the stage
- 39:38Speaker 6: for Hall. The law firm of Hall, Ashby, Uribe, McGill. Well,
- 39:43Speaker 6: and I wonder how much and how. I was going
- 39:46Speaker 6: to say, I wonder how matchup dependent they'll be. And
- 39:48Speaker 6: if they want to go for a big gun for
- 39:50Speaker 6: the top of the order, though, after May goes through
- 39:52Speaker 6: it the first time, right? Like, do you want to see,
- 39:56Speaker 6: do you want to have a Romero face Diaz and Caminero?
- 39:59Speaker 6: Or are you going to try to go unload with
- 40:02Speaker 6: a Uribe, say, in the fourth or fifth inning because
- 40:04Speaker 6: the top of the order is coming up? And then
- 40:06Speaker 6: you'll fill the gap to Ashby with somebody else. It'll
- 40:10Speaker 6: be interesting to see. I know they've got multiple plans.
- 40:12Speaker 6: The one thing we'll get to say, and we do
- 40:15Speaker 6: guarantee is we'll hear Murph say him and Jim Henderson
- 40:19Speaker 6: disagreed on it the whole time. I'm sure all we
- 40:22Speaker 6: did is sat there and disagreed the entire time, but
- 40:24Speaker 6: ultimately it worked out. Apparently neither of us appreciate or
- 40:27Speaker 6: enjoy or can agree on what we want to do,
- 40:30Speaker 6: but we've worked it pretty well so far. 81 or 84%
- 40:36Speaker 6: of the time with these teams sweeping game for the
- 40:39Speaker 6: Milwaukee brewers are a favorite at the Pottawatomie sports book
- 40:41Speaker 6: here tonight. They were a heavy favorite last night, like
- 40:44Speaker 6: minus one 40.
- 40:45Speaker 1: Yes.
- 40:45Speaker 2: From what I saw yesterday as well.
- 40:48Speaker 4: That that's a crazy stat for me that that many
- 40:51Speaker 4: teams don't even get to a game five. So it
- 40:53Speaker 4: makes you feel a little bit better.
- 40:54Speaker 2: I like that. Let's make tonight the night.
- 40:57Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 40:57Speaker 6: All right.
- 40:58Speaker 2: Let's do it.
- 40:58Speaker 7: I mean, that is, that's the objective. And if you're,
- 41:02Speaker 7: you know, put yourself in the ratios, it's a, an
- 41:05Speaker 7: unclimbable mountain.
- 41:07Speaker 2: You like to think that.
- 41:07Speaker 7: Their will was just destroyed.
- 41:09Speaker 2: That's what I'm hoping. That's what I'm thinking. I'm hoping
- 41:11Speaker 2: they're thinking about vacation.
- 41:12Speaker 7: The first sign of adversity tonight, they got to be thinking, well,
- 41:15Speaker 7: it was a good season.
- 41:16Speaker 6: I got to imagine so. I can't think it's going
- 41:18Speaker 6: to be a longstanding wait. I can't think that there's
- 41:21Speaker 6: going to be a lot of, come on, we still
- 41:24Speaker 6: got this. We can still win this if you're down
- 41:26Speaker 6: 4-2 at the 7th.
- 41:27Speaker 2: No Armands in the dugout.
- 41:29Speaker 7: No matter what happens tonight, we'll be talking about it
- 41:31Speaker 7: tomorrow at 2 o'clock. And then, before you know it,
- 41:35Speaker 7: there's this little Packers game on Thursday.
- 41:37Speaker 2: Kind of a big one. Big football weekend. We won't
- 41:40Speaker 2: have a show on Thursday, per se. We might do
- 41:42Speaker 2: an hour, maybe, if that.
- 41:44Speaker 7: We'll see. We'll see how things lay out. But right now, everybody,
- 41:47Speaker 7: enjoy Game 4. Enjoy the history. We'll talk to you tomorrow.
- 41:49Speaker 3: Peace!
