  Speaker 2: American League Divisional Championship Series baseball, and we'll start out
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: with a game that could have ended at all, Game four.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Of the America League Divisional Series.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: There the Yankees looking to beat the Blue Jays and
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: force a winner take all game.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Back in all, did you watch? Perhaps not?
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Well, we got your cover. We got you covered on
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: this because we have nothing else to do. We wished
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: an entire day watching sports. Vladimir Guerrero Junior and that
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: cheating astro George Springer each drove in a run, and
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: eight Toronto pitchers, eight Toronto pitchers shut down the mighty
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: New York Yankees lineup five to two the final on
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: Wednesday night. Then that sent the Blue Jays flying high
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: to the American League Championship Series. They've reached the final
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: four for the first time in nine years. Toronto smacked
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: out twelve hits in smothering the Yankees. The a L
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: East champion Toronto Blue Jays, well, now move on. They
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: take the divisional series three games to one. They will
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: host game number one in best of seven American League
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Championship Series. That'll be on Sunday. We'll be watching football,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: but they'll be playing baseball there against either the Tigers
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: or the Seattle Mariners, and those teams are set to
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: decide their playoff series. That'll be on Friday night in
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: game number five, Game number five there in Seattle. More
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: on that in a minute. But the better story, as
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: you talk Yankees and Blue Jays, is in the losing
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: locker room. And it's always a special time when the
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: Yankees lose in the playoffs. I know Supermarket Steve always
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: looks forward to it. He can't get enough of it.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: So let us discuss the question. We'll focus in on
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: the big Ragou, the big ragu for the Yankees. So
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: what does this latest playoff loss doe for Aaron Judges
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Yankees resume?
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: What does it do?
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: So?
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: You go to his Wikipedia page, you go to his
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Baseball reference page.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: What does this do? So?
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: I've got rewriting, academia and Nintendo, and we will combine
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: all of these things together and we are gonna make
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: your Babushka's favorite soggy nachos, soggy ballpark nachos.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: See, the nachos are like it's like my theory on
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: fast food, and I'm never wrong about this. I'm never
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: My theory on fast food is every second that goes
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: by once you pick up your food like that. I
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: used to eat fast food all time. But when you
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: get the fast food, you've got to eat it right
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: away because every second it goes it degrades. The quality
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: of the meal goes down, similar to nachos. Like it's
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: like when I was a kid, My mom used to
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: make you give me cereal, like give most kids. You
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: get cereal when you're a kid, and I would get
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: it and it would always bother me because I had
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: to eat it so fast, because you don't want to
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: eat soggy cereal because the milk and the cereal.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: So nachos are the same thing. But back to the point.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: So what does this latest playoff loss do for Aaron
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Judges Yankees Rosumee so number Aaron Judge is a magician?
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Can we all agree on that? Does anyone disagree? Anybody
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: in the back of the room disagree? Aaron Judge is
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: a magician. He is untracted to the impossible. They and imaginable,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: the most mind blowing trick around have a full career
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: wearing pinstripes and get no bling, bling abra cadabra, hocus pocus.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: It's wild.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: It is insane to the membrane that here we are
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: and Judges already passed his athletic prime and has nothing
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: in terms of championships, which is how you are judged
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: as a Yankee. Now here's Aaron Judge. But we'll go
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: into the locker room. Here's Aaron Judge talking about yet
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: another ending to a Yankee season that ended the wrong way.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Take a listen.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: No, I like our chances, and I like our chances
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: all year as a special group. And it just sucks
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: for the guys that might be a lot of time
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: wearing pinstripes. You're not get a chance to have a
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: long run with him, and in the championship. You know,
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: especially to the fans all year that have been you know,
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: showing up supporting us even in these postseason games, even
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: when we get down, you know they stayed right in
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: their season, you know, cheering us on. So it's just
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: disappointed we let all those guys down.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: So it's pretty standard, pretty standard there from Aaron Judge,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: the captain of the Yankees. It is ironic that John
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Hayman and one of the great f ups ever by
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: a baseball insider when he reported that Arson Judge was
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: going to the Giants, but yet in the playoffs for
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: the Yankees, the teams Aaron Judge plays for, it's an
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Arson job. At least I'm gonna be Benny Bright, people
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: said to negative malor, I'll be Benny Bright's out here,
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: because it's not all bad for Aaron Judge.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: At least.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: According to Fox broadcaster Joe Davis, Aaron Judge finally had
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: his playoff moment.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: He had his playoff moment.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: It was a home run in the fourth inning of
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: Game three of the divisional series that went off the
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: foul poll.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: Or the fifth inning wherever it was against Toronto.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Yankee propaganda aside, all right, Yankee propaganda side. Judge is
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: the Matinee idol for this era of Yankee underachievement. So congratulations.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: We are now talking about ten plus years, ten plus
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: years in the Bronx bomber's uniform, and he has been
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: given a team that has always one of the top
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: pay rolls in baseball, and yet in the playoffs bupkis.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: In terms of championships, he is thirty three. He'll turn
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: thirty four in April. Your athletic prime ends about thirty two.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: You can stretch you out a couple of years if
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: you're a superhero and all that, but that means we're
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: talking about the tail end, even if Judge has another
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: couple of good years in him. And for all of
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: the crooked numbers, for all of the gotdy numbers, and
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: the little trophies he's gotten and all that stuff, and
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: all you guys that love that exit velocity porn, you
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: get your you're all excited there because of.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: The exit velocity.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Aaron Judge is the he's reincarnated as he's like Donnie
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Baseball reincarnated or Dave Winfield that era of Yankee Baseball,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: great regular season guy. And that's a team that's judged
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: on winning championships and all that.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: He's got no jewelry, well, I'm sure he's got a
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: nice jewelry. Probably got a roll Exra two because he's
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: got a lot of money.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: But he's done the impossible, being what many believe is
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: the top hitter in baseball since Barry Bonds most likely
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: better though, because we don't believe Aaron Judges on the
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: sauce who knows and the clear in the cream and
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: somehow still not winning. Like you think of every era
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: of baseball with the Yankees, Babe Ruf, Lou Garrett, Jolton,
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Joe DiMaggio, they all did it. The only ear that
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: didn't do it was Dave Winfield, Don Mattingly, that was it.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: But all the legends in Monument Park, for the most part,
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: carried the damn franchise to the top of the mountain.
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: Now Aaron Judge again, he's rewriting the Yankee history book
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: here for all the wrong reasons.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: And the man's going to finish his career.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: As the best you know what that means, as good
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: as all the rest, best player ever to wear the
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: uniform without a championship. Like he's better than Don matting
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: He's better than Dave Winfield, and yet they didn't.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: Go down the Canyon of Heroes, and neither is Aaron Judge.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Tik tik tik tik tick. You can hear tik tik
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: tik tik tick.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: The clock is ticket and the Yankees so called window
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: of opportunity, while it never really closes because the Yankees
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: spent a lot of money. In all reality, it's a
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: very small window, very small window. It really is the
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: longest drought in modern Yankee history is seventeen years from
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: nineteen seventy nine to nineteen ninety five. And then they
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: had the Joe Tory run, and with him as the manager,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: and Paul O'Neill and Jeter and then Jorje Posad and
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Bernie Williams and all those guys, and now they're at
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: sixteen right now. The difference all right, And back then
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: they got they had maddingly in that run where they
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: didn't get it done. Sad wistful eyes of Donnie Baseball,
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: who I believe is a coach with the Blue Jays.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: Now they've got Aaron Judge's blank postseason stare.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Now Judge put up great stats. Woo o o.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Batt at six hundred had a home run off the
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: foul pole, had his moment. According to Joe Davis, a
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Fox had his moment. Six RBIs, four walks against Blue Jays.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Spoiler alert, Vladimir Guerrero Junior was better. The other team's
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: top player was better than your team's best player.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: That's it. And again Aaron Judge, despite what Joe.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Davis said, his signature moment is fumbling and bumbling and
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: stumbling a ball in center field in Game five of
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: the World Series where the Yankees had.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: A dominating lead they were gonna get right back in
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: the World Series. Heft it up. That's his moment.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: And this series in the Bronx, Vlattie doing backflips and
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: carrying Toronto while Aaron Judge can only watch and watched
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: the celebration a little dazed and confused.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: And so the Yankee So he used to own October Man.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: That was all Yankee baseball in October House of Horrors,
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: Yankee Stadium. Now, I guess they rent by the hour.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: You know, It's like it's sleazy hotel. They rent by
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: the hour, all right now.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Page two.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: So the big Komodo dragon in the room in the
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: Bronx continues to be will there actually be legitimate changes?
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Every year the Yankees losing the playoffs, and every year
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: the question gets asked, are they going to whack this guy?
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: Are they going to whack that guy? So you've got
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Aaron Boone who is always being discussed as a guy's
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: going to lose his job and all this well here
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: is Aaron Boone asked whether or not he's going to
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: come back. Do you think Aaron Boone is going to say, Ay,
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: I shouldn't come back. I've done a terrible job. B
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: I don't want to come back because this team's a
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: bunch of losers.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: Or see, I expect to be back. Let's go to
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: the audio tape.
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: Aaron, I'm sorry on it, but it becomes a subject
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: every year. Do you have any reason to think you
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: won't be back managing the team next year?
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: No?
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: I'm under contract, so no, I don't expect any thing.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Can I ask a question? I would like to ask
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: you a question.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: What journalism school do they tell you to apologize before
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: you ask the question?
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Does that guy have no balls? Can we play that again?
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: I believe I just heard a supposed reporter apologize before
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: asking the question, like, what are we doing it?
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: What are your buddies with him? Going out drinking with
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: them after the news car?
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: Take a lesson?
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: Aaron, I'm sorry on it, but it becomes a subject
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: every year. Do you have any reason to think you
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: won't be back managing the team next Okay?
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: All right, I don't, this is Aaron. I'm sorry, I'm
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: so sorry.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Oh crap, all right, question, are Aaron Boone and Brian
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: Cashman the GM there in the danger zone? Stranger danger?
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: Are they in the danger zone in the Bronx? So
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: I am shaking my head? No, right, isn't the Bronx anymore?
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: You know, it's not like it used to be. It
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: used to be you lose in October and it would
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: be like Halloween. There'd be heads on spikes outside Yankee Stadium.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Now it's modern deferred accountability.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: It's you know again, we say it every year.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: These aren't your daddy's pinstripers or your granddaddy's pinstripers. Brian
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: Cashman has been running the show since Bill Clinton was
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: in the White House with Monica Lewinsky having a good time.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Yankee Baseball has turned in to academia. Aaron Boone, I
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: am convinced. Aaron Boon's not going anywhere. Brian Cashman's not
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: going anywhere. Heck, they could both get promoted. They are
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: tenured professors. At this point, you can't whack a tenured guy.
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: You gotta jump to a lot of hoops to get
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: rid of a tenured professor. They've got lifetime appointments to
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: the Bronx Ivy League is what they've got. And the
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Steinbrenner clan that owns the team, the kids like, they're
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: not They're not the boss, the sequels, not the equals.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: We know. You look at all.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: The legacy ownership groups in sports, they're just not as good.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: They're just not as good.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: Al Davis was a tyrant with the Raiders. It didn't
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: go well at the end of our life. But his
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: kid is a joke. Mark Davis with the Raiders an embarrassment.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Right, and you give me to go down.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: Then all the groups where the next generation takes over,
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: it's it gets worse. It does not get better, It
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: gets worse. Genie Buss horrific owner with the Lakers, right,
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: old man, great owner. She was terrible and she's finally
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: sold the team, I guess eventually, but she wants to
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: hold on because she gets to go to.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: Cocktail parties in Beverly Hills. But whatever. Fine.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: So the point is that the old man, George Steinbrener
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: was lighting managers on fire every other homestead. He had
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: a revolving door with these guys like Billy Martin. Now
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: you're fired. Two years later, you're hired. You know that
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: he had I think it was eleven changes in like
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: a four year span or some ridiculous thing like that
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: back in the day. But now he fired Yogi Bear
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: left them at the airport in Chicago baseball legend. That
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: was the George Steinberner years. Now it's a daycare center, right.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: The current group, it's just a cash cow. It's the
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: the illusion of contention is all you need. They're printing money,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: you know, the seventeen dollars beers and all that. And
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: I've been told by boots on the ground that the
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: luxury area behind home plate is the top in baseball,
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: where they have the seafood table with crab legs and
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: high ends sushi, they have the Kobe beef over to
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: the sun and all that. It's just insane, right because
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: they appeal to the Wall Street the one percenters there
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: in New York and then don't appeal to the to
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: the bleacher creatures and all that stuff. And so as
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: long as they can convince the fans that just making
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: the playoffs there and that you know, losing in the
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: wild card of the divisional round is equal to a championship.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: That's championship stands. The Yankees have become a theme park attraction.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: They really have.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: You know, as long as the turnstiles are spending and
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: you're riding the dumbbell ride and the networks selling their
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: ads and they got all the spots paid.
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: For, no one's storming the castle. It's not happening.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Aaron Boone could sleep walk, right, could sleep walk through
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: a ninety win season, and Brian Cashman's gonna still be
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: ordering catered lunches for his army of nerds.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: As Goose Gotchi's tremulously said back in the day.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Now, the real question is who is going to pay
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: the price for the Yankees issues, Because why I believe
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: Aaron Boone and Cashman are safe, someone's going to lose
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: their job. Normally, what you do is you sacrifice one
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: of the coaches. Depends how upset you are. You might
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: get rid of the first base coach. If you're not
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: that upset, you get rid of the third base coach,
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: if you're a little more upset. If you're really really upset,
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: you get rid of the pitching coach and the hitting coach.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: The one name that I will put there at the
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: very top is of my big board, not a list
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Terry in England, my big board. The fall guy is
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: going to be Jazz Chisholm Garantee, Jazz Chisholm, free agent
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: butcher in the field, he was an All Star and
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: he was caught yawning while trailing in an elimination game,
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: and then mock the people that made fun of him
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: yawning during the game on the field, yawning while the
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: game was going on. He's the perfect scapegoat, bad clutch player,
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: not a big time player. Two eleven batting average in
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: the postseason, one eight two in the American League Divisional Series, underwhelming.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: When it matters, underwhelming when it matters.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: And you know, meanwhile, Brian Cashman is up in the
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: suite stress testing the next NERD approved depth chart and
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: they're already.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: Going over who can we get on the weaver wire?
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Now, the danger zone does not exist in the Bronx
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: at this point.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: It's more of a comfort zone. It's more of a
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: comfort zone than that. And as long as they're selling
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: the illusion of the evil Empire.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: No one is actually in any real danger. Yankee baseball
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: is where tenure meets mediocredy. There's an intersection of tenure
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: and mediocrety. All right, final point to motown we go.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: And it looked early on like it was going to
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: be a bubbly bath for the boys from Seattle.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: But then they had to play the rest of the game.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: And somebody named Riley green is somebody named Hobby Bias
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: homeward four run, sixth inning, and the.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Tigers had they ried, I'll roared back to keep their season.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: I'll stand alive, staying up nine to three, dominating win
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: over the Mariners on a sleepy Wednesday afternoon their Game
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: four of the American League Divisional Series.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: So that means we are gonna get a game five.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Tigers force a Game five by winning at Comerica Park
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: for the first time in more than a month. They'd
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: lost eight straight home games. How embarrassing, How Lou Whitaker
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: and Alan Tramball right, what are you doing?
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Che Lemon's rolling over in his grave? Might swong with you?
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: So the decisive game of the series be Friday in Seattle,
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: Cy young winner Tarret Scoobel on the mound for the
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: Motor City Kiddies against George Kirby. George Kirby uh More
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: on that in a minute. But the better story's in
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: the losing locker room as the Tridents blew a three
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: to nothing lead in the fifth inning. Question, how do
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: you react to Fox's Derek Jeters.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: Saying the Mariners?
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: He said on the Fox postgame he said the Mariners
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: thought the series was over, implying that that somehow is
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: why they lost. All right, So listen, Derek Jeter, legendary
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: bad take, nonsense. Manager Dan Wilson did the thing you
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: can't do at the time he can't do it.
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: He trusted his.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Bullpen and they the pipe burst on the bullpen under
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: the immense pressure of October baseball. So it started out
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: with this lefty Gabe Spier who I looked at the
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: they had the stats on the broadcast. He had a
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: zero point seventy five ERA. He had allowed one run
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: in twelve innings since September sixth, So of course he
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: came in there and poured kerosene all over the game.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: And then it was a funeral procession of relievers. People
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: I've never heard of, Eduard Bizardo and Carlos Vargas, guys
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: like that, Just like bullpen spam came in and they
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: would have been better off throwing Robbie the Mariner fan crying,
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: Craig JJ in Renton and no stradinas on the mountain.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: They all sucked at the time. He cannot suck so Seattle.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: What they needed was to call the people that used
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: to own the team from Nintendo and get Mario and Luigi.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: Of course we know those are plumbers. Get them in
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: there to solve the bullpen some solid plumbers. So unsolicited advice,
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: what can the Mariners do to beat Tigers Ace Trek
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: Scuoble in Game five?
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Because everyone's gokinda, oh, this game series over.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: Tigers have their guy, They're gonna win Game five, go
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: on to play Toronto in the American League Championship Series.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: So the mallord advice call it the Schooble Survival pack,
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: the schoolbal survival pack. You don't have to was see
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: the thing people don't understand when you face a number
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: one starting pitcher, Okay, you don't have.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: To win the duel. You just have to endure it, right,
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: you just have to do it. And now what do
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: I mean by that?
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: Like the Big Dumper cal Riley and friends, the mission
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: is not conquest. The mission is not to be eat
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: Trek Schooble, it's to contain him, meaning that you just
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: have to end up in a situation where where Schoop
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: is gonna go out. He'll slice your lineup up like
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: a sushi chef and just cut you up with a
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: nice big butcher's knife. The goal is to keep pace.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: The goal is not to beat him. It's just co
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: author the chapter. Match it, blow for blow, inning for inning,
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: have Kirby pitch well, go to the bullpen, have some
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: guys come in there and get it done. And you
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: just got to write it out. And you got to
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: either have a zero zero score or a one nothing score,
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: or you have the lead when you go to the
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: tigers bullpen or where they go to the bullpen, and that's.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: When the ink starts to smudge a little bit, and
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: so that's what you get.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: You're not gonna beat Schooble more likely than not, but
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: if you have a shot, you just gotta you gotta
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: go blow for blow, blow for It's like a boxer,
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: you kind of sandbag a little bit early on, kind
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: of you know, let the fight come to you, that.
• 22:55

  Speaker 1: other songs? I can sing other songs. I got. I
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: got talent, man. I'm telling you.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: I could have been Taylor Swift if I was a woman,
• 25:53
  Speaker 2: I could have been you know. I chose to go
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: to the other way. I chose to go to the
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: dark side overnight talk radio. But I could have done
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: other things. I want to be like Gaga, h Well,
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: I was back in the day. I don't want to
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: be like her anymore yet. But I do have a
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: poker face, right I haven't got a pretty good poker face, right,
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: I think?
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: So for radio? I have a good poker face for radio?
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Why not? Yeah? See what do we have on the
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: X Machine.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: Late Night Drug tester writes in he says, what a
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: day to be a Toronto fan. Both the Maple Leaves
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: and the Blue Jays one on the same day. First
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: time that's happened since nineteen ninety three.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Wow, Yeah, how about that?
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: Super Marcus Steve writes in he says he's a Yankee fan.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: He says they should should have fired jazz Chism after
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: he made those stupid comments about how they were the
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: best team in baseball.
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: While being only one game ahead in the wild card race.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Well, that's part of the beauty of jazz Chism is
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: that he's a bit up toose. He's a bit up toose.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: Yeh Joe writes in She's a big Yankee fan.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: He says, I.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: Cannot decide what you're happier about Kershaw or the Yankees losing.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: There will be no organizational change. Oh hell nah, I
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: know exactly You're right.
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: I agree with you, Jill, and I do take joy
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: out of Kershaw because, again, as I mentioned, Jill, I
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: don't know if you were listening last hour. I am
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: still getting email from fanboys and was that not the
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: most perfect beginning? If you were listening last hour, go
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: back and hear the podcast if you missed it.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: But it was so perfect.
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: Because I did this whole rant and I laid out
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: everything on like what the Kershaw fanboys would say, and
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: this guy Jay in La called up and repeated verbatim
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: all of the talking points to defend Kershaw.
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: All of them was great. I was, go to the
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: phones and.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: We'll take your calls right now, and we'll say hello
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: to Lucky Tony in the Bay Area.
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: Hello, Lucky Tony, Welcome, Hey man.
• 27:54
  Speaker 8: Two things.
• 27:55
  Speaker 9: What is David Vassay's signature question for Dodger players?
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 28:02
  Speaker 6: Did you eat pineapple?
• 28:03
  Speaker 5: And Lord Shayan hear my prayers?
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: Thanks?
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: Ben?
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go. Let's go to Mike in Tucson.
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: What's going on? Mike? Welcome? How you doing?
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: If if I was any better, go go ahead.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: You don't care, Go ahead.
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: So I called last week after I still listen to
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: the podcast, and then you said, Mikey and Kusan. I
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: was so well away because I'm five ft four. All
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: the friends called, they all call me Mikey. I've been
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: calling my whole life. But Ben, but today my daughter,
• 28:40
  Speaker 5: my daughter is on fall break. She's a weak. I
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: didn't talk about you.
• 28:43
  Speaker 6: She had one.
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: Question to ask you. She said, why did call him
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: Big Ben? Honey?
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So my dad said that you're like seven feet tall,
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: and if you're that tall, then why didn't she just
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: playing the NBA? And I think, well, that's great question,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: that is a good question. Well what's your what's your
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: daughter's name? Again? There, Mikey, what's your jasmine?
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: Well, I could have gone to the NBA, but I
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: thought it's actually harder to do syndicated overnight talk radio.
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: There are fewer overnight syndicated talk radio jobs in playing
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: in the NBA.
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: Do you realize that.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: There are more people playing in the NBA than doing
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: what I do for a living. So I actually defied
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: the odds by going in this. And it pays so well.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, and Mikey, you let your daughter know. I mean,
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: this pays so well. It's and Lorena and Coop, you
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: guys working in radio, you both know this is NBA
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: like money that we've got tea, we get all the
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: creature comforts. We've got the biggest cockroaches in radio. We
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: have the greatest skunks that get into this. The air
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: conditioning system in our building, we have the classic computers
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: from the year two thousand. We've got a vending machine
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: from nineteen ninety two. We got the greatest of the greatest.
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: Here we do, she said.
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: I told her. I told her YouTube suff and she said,
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: you loved it. Why do they call him that Mallard?
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: I said, you don't. I don't have no idea.
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: He's big, he's so tall.
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: If he saw NBA, I said, we you asked that
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: Jax real quick man. Over the weekend we had a
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: brand new son, Jackson. My daughter was there. Me and
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: my daughter told my wife. We never had a middle name.
• 30:23
  Speaker 5: We said, Mallard, Jackson, Malar Burron. What does your mom say, honey?

  Speaker 2: and left this mortal coil, and I told him I
• 32:04

  Speaker 2: in southern California, and I used to listen to Suns
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: games because I just loved radio, late night radio and
• 32:22
  Speaker 2: Al McCoy and I actually told HS because I have
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: family in Phoenix and we would go to Phoenix. And
