  Speaker 1: to the bullpen.

  Speaker 2: Listen.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: If the Dodgers could use eight pitchers last night, including
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Walker Muller a starter to close it out, we can
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: go to the pen as well. Cameron Parker will be
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: back during the four o'clock hour. He's getting some things
• 0:33

  Speaker 1: we do go to the pen or to bring on
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: our sixth man since we're all in the basketball season
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: now as well. That's Andrew Zimmel, who hails from the
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Alamo City. But now he's back up here.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: How are you You know how dangerous is to have
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: a nice lefty out of the bullpen that I'm telling him?
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: The Dodgers had two when they activated Anthony Bonda to
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: be out of the Alex VESSI got healthy again, and
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: they had both of those guys. But they just had
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: two lefties in the pen for the World Series. But
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: they burned through all of all those arms last night,
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: and it took some tough, gritty, gutty work from Blake
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Trining in the seventh and eighth to get him through that,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: and then and then Buehler coming.
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: Out to pitch the night. I forget, what is your
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: favorite team?
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: So I grew up a Twins fan. I right for
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: the Yankees when they were playing the Astros all those years,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: so I had a little.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Bit of a Yankee rooting interest.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: But let me tell you, Craig, I was so happy
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: when you got to win, because that's what I thought
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: when when the Dodgers won it, I thought, Craig Way
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: gets a win, and that's what we want.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Well, thanks, I appreciate that. It was a lot of fun.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: And as I mentioned last hour, I watched somewhere in
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: the neighborhood one hundred and ten other games this year.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: So I feel fully vested as a fan and fully
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: invested and happy for them and doing that. But it's
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: gonna be interesting to see what happens going forward around
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Major League Baseball for the Astros, for the Rangers, for
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: the Yankees, for the Dodgers, for all of those teams,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: to see how they do for next year.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: We'll talk more about that with Geene Watson coming up.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Okay, you are obviously completely ensconced in all things San
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Antonio Spurs. While there was a World Series game last night,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: and while you normally get to bed relatively early because
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: of your morning duties there at the big one there
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: at Wai, did you.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: Happen to catch Spurs thunder last night? I caught the
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: first quarter of Spurs thunder last night, and.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: That was probably all you needed to see, was and I, yeah,
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: kind of.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: It was tough because before that game, I don't know
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: if you saw the report that Victor wimen Yama just
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: doesn't even say Chet's name, and I was thinking, oh,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: we're going to get a big man versus big man battle,
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: and that's.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Not what happened. No, no, it did, it didn't. It
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: didn't happen that that way.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: And really and truly it was Logan's Dort who had
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: the game high lou Dor, Yeah, yeah, so so Dort
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: with twenty. Harrison Barnes had eighteen for the Spurs. You know,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: when we had Bill shutting on last week, he said
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: he was looking forward to seeing what Barnes would be
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: able to give to the Spurs this year.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: You know, it's funny me and Showing are like two
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: twins of mine, because when it was announced that he
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: was coming with the Spurs, I like him played basketball
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: unc I enjoyed him when he was with the Warriors.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: I thought he was gonna add something. I liked him
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: with the Mavericks. He looks good, He's okay, he's that bad.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Of course.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: You know, body saying that you and Schoning are like
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: twins that insults both of you at the same time.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: I just just want you to know that, But that's
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: that's okay. Early on, been kind of weird to see
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: what's going on with the Sixers. They get one hundred
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars fine for not properly characterizing the the status
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: of Joe l Embid, although the league didn't deny that
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: he needed to miss the first three games.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: It's weird because he played the Olympics and now the
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: season the thing that pays his bills, and he's like,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: I don't really want to can't go.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: He can go, he can't go. Paul George can't go. Uh.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: And the Pistons just kind of worked them last night.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Jay and Ivy had a good Bay. He's he's been
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: really good for them, and Kate Cunningham also has been.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Really really good for them early on.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: So it's gonna be interesting to say, Mavericks play the
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Rockets tonight in Dallas and then the Spurs on the
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: back to back are in Salt Lake to play a
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: struggling Utah Jazz team.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Right now, they're oh to four. I just don't look
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: back to packs.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: I every time my team plays it back to back,
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: I kind of just chalk it up youngest team of
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: the the Spurs. Yeah, so maybe they have young legs,
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: but I don't know, man, I always get nervous on those,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: especially after a game last like last night.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, that's why I thought that the Mavericks
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: what was it Sunday night on the back to back
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: against Minnesota when they went in and played so well
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: and Luca had that incredible three near the end and
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: all that, And that was a back to back and
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: they didn't get into Minneapolis until like six point thirty
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: in the morning on Sunday.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: You never know with certain teams how they're gonna do well.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: I think they've had blood there too, you know what
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: I mean? I think that between yeah, Dallas and Minnesota. Yeah,
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: a little bit.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: From the playoff last year. Yeah, absolutely, all right, Well,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: we'll get to some more NBA later. Up next, a
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: recap not only of the World Series, but of the
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty four baseball season overall. What's to come with
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: also the with the off season, what's to happen? We'll
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: visit with Gene Watson, our MLB insider from the Chicago
