Brewers grab 2-0 NLCS edge, Guards blitz Rays in CS G1 | FT Postgame · Foul Territory

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: It's the FT Live postgame show. It's late. It's time
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: to recap not one, but two LCS games and also
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: just enjoy the remaining days that we have where there
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: are multiple games in the 2026 MLB season. Braun Pierzynski, Kratz.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: We're going to go over Dodgers Brewers later. We're going
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: to start with the ALCS since that's the freshest one
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: that we're coming off of. Guardians take game one in
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Tampa Bay at the Trop. So let's dive in. Let's
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: do it with full count. It's a full count. Yep.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Full count fueled by marathon. Were you surprised here? AJ,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: the Rays were in control. It's Rasmussen things looking like
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: it's the Rays brand of baseball. And then Cleveland gave
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: them a heavy dose of what the guardians do guards ball.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: Okay. So this reminds me of two to 2005.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: We played the, We played the Angels after the D.S., right?
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: We swept the Red Sox, and they played the Yankees,
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: and they had to go to game five, and they
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: had to fly from New York to Anaheim. There was
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: a rain delay, so they didn't get a day off
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: in between, right? So everyone said, oh, rest versus rush, right?
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: And they rode really high, and that's the only game
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: we lost that postseason. Everyone said, oh, the Angels are
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: going to come in. They're going from New York to Anaheim,
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: back to Chicago, 48 hours, whatever. They're going to be
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: so tired. One thing I've learned is that it's not
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: the first day that gets you. It's the second day, usually,
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: of being tired. The only surprise to me is that
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: the Rays didn't kind of jump on Foster Griffin a
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: little more. They scored the two runs early, but then
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: it was just nothing. Espina came in and did a
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: good job. Cantillo came in and did a good job.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Then when you get to the back end with Gattis
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: and Zabrowski, I know he gave up the home run,
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: and Cade Smith literally is a robot. It gets really tough,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: but I'm not surprised the Guardians won a game. I'm
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: just surprised that the Rays scored the two runs early
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: and just their offense went.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Away, really.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of credit to the Guardians. Patrick Bailey giving,
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: and even Steven Vogt trusting that Foster Griffin who did
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: not do well when he came over in the trade,
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: did not pitch that much when he did pitch against
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: the White Sox, punched out the world. So everybody was
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: trusting Foster Griffin after that first inning, and whoever it
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: was settled all those pitchers down and kept them in
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: the game. There's a lot of key at-bats to the game.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of big hits, big strikeouts in different spots.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: but they kept them in the game by leaving it 2-0.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: You score two early in a playoff game, you got
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: to finish them. And so for the Rays to not
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: finish them, that's what really ultimately ended up costing them.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: I know the game got a little more out of
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: hand later, but you can put them away right there
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: and really, really force the Guardians to throw kind of
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: the underbelly of their bullpen, and you can do damage
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: against them, and they weren't able to add on.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: AJ, Jose Ramirez is back. He's very back right now.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: He's on fire.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: And he has help. I think that's important here. Chase
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: DeLauder is help. How many years have we talked about
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: the Guardians and Jose Ramirez and there's nobody around him
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: that can step up and be a star? Maybe it's DeLauder.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Maybe it is.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's got a great song. And then when
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: he comes up to hit, they do the country roads
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: and they change it to Chase DeLauder.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: That's pretty awesome.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: Chase DeLauder's had some nice games. Why in the ninth
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: inning they pitched to Jose Ramirez? Listen, I know DeLauder
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: has had three hits behind him, but I'm sorry, I'm
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: not pitching to Jose Ramirez right there.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: I'm making DeLauder beat me. And you know what? I
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: might not pitch to him either.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: I might walk him to and go after Joe Adele.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: The ninth inning, like Kratz kind of said, it got
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: away from him. The double steal, nobody covers in that situation.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: Am I not right, Crouch?
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: What are you doing?
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: Let them have the base. Junior Caminero goes to cover.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: The ball goes down the left field line. Two more
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: runs scored. That really put the game away, but the
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: guards just did what they did. They get timely hits.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: Their stars step up in big moments. Their bullpen is
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: really good. This is why they're in the ALCS, and
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: this is why they're up 1-0 because they played much
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: like the other series where the Brewers played their game,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: the Guardians played their game. Almost everything that happened tonight
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: I would not have said was going to happen. Like,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Jose got pitched to. Patrick Bailey hit a homer to
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: dead center. Not even dead center. Like, right of dead
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: center field in the trop, which is, in the American
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: League East, probably one of the farthest places to hit
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: a homer besides Boston's triangle there in right center.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: But, like, it is like....
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: It did not go the way that I thought it
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: would be scripted, the way that I thought you would
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: have said, hey, you're throwing Foster Griffin.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: You know what?
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Give us some innings. Give us some length. We'll get
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: him in game two, especially after it started 2-0. And
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: I think Chase DeLauder, I think he had like a
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: three and a half war this year. He hit like 287,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: like 111 OPS plus. He's going to get some Rookie
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: of the Year votes. Everybody remembers him from making his
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: big league debut in the playoffs last year. And you
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: have a guy that I think, while I'm never as
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: afraid of him as Jose Ramirez, I think he puts
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: together really, really good at-bats. And I think players or
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: people in the game would be like, oh, he doesn't
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: hit for enough power. Like the rest of the Guardians
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: don't hit for enough power. But he puts together good at-bats.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Joe Adele, I think that he's now six after going
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: 0 for his first nine with six punch outs against
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: the White Sox. I think he's now six for his
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: last 14 after that bad start to the postseason. So
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: he's starting to make adjustments. He tried on that one
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: ground ball up the middle with the run of the
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: second and third. He tried to hit the open hole.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: And this is also a guy that had 98 stakes
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: during the season. Like, There's potential there, and when you
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: win games like this, you're like, see, I knew it.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: Chase De Lauder and Joe Adele would be great protection
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: for Jose Ramirez.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you have a rookie in De Lauder. You have
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: Adele acquired around the trade deadline. You have Foster Griffin
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: acquired around the trade deadline. Patrick Bailey was acquired as
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: an early trade during the season. These are transactions that matter.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: It actually makes me feel good about the shows we
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: do every day when we talk about this ad nauseum. AJ,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: because we see so many impact players in this game
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: that weren't on the team a year ago. And you
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: know what's going to make you laugh? The portion of
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: the bracket that was considered the consolation bracket with the
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Astros and the White Sox and the Guardians. And all
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: of a sudden, here comes Cleveland sending a message to
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. Best record in the AL, the race. Best
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: home record in the American League. And Cleveland's like, we
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: can play with you guys. Stop making fun of our
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: portion of the bracket.
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: Nobody doubts that Cleveland can play with them. I don't
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: think that was ever the option. I think over the
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: long haul is where you're going to look at it
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: and say the Guardians can't compete. But listen, they've got
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: their best two pitchers lined up now for the next
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: two games. They've got Messick and Gavin Williams lined up.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: So they're in a great spot. But then again, we
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: also thought after game one and the other series that
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: the Dodgers are in a great spot and Yamamoto couldn't
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: get out of the third inning. So you just never know.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: It's baseball.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: That's what makes it so great. But I'll say this
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: about the Guardians. They're a good team. They won the division.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: They have all kinds of postseason experience. This isn't a
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: team just getting there for the first time. The Guardians
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: have been to the postseason. Now, they haven't made it
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: very far recently, but they've been there and they're led
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: by a guy who fears nothing, and that's Jose Ramirez.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: He's definitely– I mean, he's like if you would go
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: out to the backyard and play wiffle ball with somebody.
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: That's what it looks like he's doing. With his short
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: little arms, his smile, how he stayed on the bag
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: after he dove back in on the play where he
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: got the hit and then they had him off the bag.
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: He stayed on– like you wouldn't even think he's 34
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: years old. Like some guys, they're like 34 on the decline. Hosey,
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: after having a bad year for his standard, has just
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: come alive. But the guy that I have to talk about,
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: and the fact that I'm trying to get his amount
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: of pitches here, the fact that they still brought Cade
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: Smith in the game, the Rays should have somehow made
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: him throw 15 pitches. I know that's easier said than done,
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: but Cade Smith... I get it. He got hot cause
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: he was going to come in the game and that's
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: counted as a, you know, an up down. So I
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: guess they still wanted to bring him in the game.
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: Even with the lead, we've seen voter do this before.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: I hope it doesn't come back to bite him, but
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: I know the Rays lost an opportunity.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: He only threw six pitches.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: You want that guy to throw as many pitches as possible.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: I'm not even saying take till two strikes. It's not
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: what I'm saying. I'm just saying that there is an
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: opportunity to, to chip away you're not winning this game
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: but chip away at this bullpen that's going to just
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: get absolutely worn out throughout this whole series.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah but how do you guys do that that's my
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: question i mean if he's if he's pumping strikes then
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: you're behind against him you're even more screwed.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: I mean he threw six pitches i know I'm not
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: saying you can't try to foul the ball off you
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: can't try so I guess so I guess I'm just
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: yelling into the wind but I think I think we
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: need you to we need you to be able to
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: see as many pitches as possible it will help you
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: later in the series and it will slowly wear him
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: down I think Unless he's a machine. And then his
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: mom freaking out when he was closing the game in
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: game five was just theater because she knows he's a
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: machine and he will never mess up.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: If you're looking for non-competitive pitches, Emmanuel Classe is not
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: on the Guardians anymore. It's allegedly. It's allegedly. Anyway, let's
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: get back to biz. One more thing on this series
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: for me, AJ. Key at bat of the game. Nathaniel Lowe.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Two fastballs up. He's down 0-2. It's pretty much same pitch,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: same location again. And he comes through with a two-run
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: knock that puts them ahead, and then they never looked back.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: Nathaniel Lowe's been here before. A few years ago, there
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: was a team called the Texas Rangers that beat the
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Arizona Diamondbacks in the 2023 World Series. It's not the
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Dodgers every year. So that was the World Series. Lowe
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: has the experience, and he comes through for this team too.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and by the way, there was something I saw,
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: and they were talking about it. Great at bat by Lowe.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: After Adele didn't get it done, Lowe comes up, gets
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: two heaters up. And then the veteran in him just says,
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: all right, I'm putting the bat on the ball and
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: we're going from there. The base running, whoever, I forget
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: who was on second. DeLauder maybe was on second, I think.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: And they were like, oh, what a great read. Cratch,
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: the infield was in front of him. If the ball
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: is over the infielder's head, you go. Like, I don't
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: know what the great read was. Like, they're not behind him.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: They're in front of you. You're behind him. If the
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: ball is over your head, it's a knock. You can
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: haul ass to score. So, yeah, that was a great
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: read by DeLauder, knowing that the infielders were.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: In front of him. But whatever.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: It was a great swing by Nathaniel Lowe. That's why
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: veterans are so important on these teams and in these
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: playoff runs. And when you make the right trade and
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: you put the right guys on the team, And then
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: they get big hits. Whatever prospect you gave away for him,
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: it doesn't matter.
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. It doesn't.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: He got a big hit. And what did he do?
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: He made an adjustment. He got blown away by the fastballs.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: The first two, he made an adjustment. Something that I've
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: seen throughout playoffs, not a lot of guys have made.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: And it's partially why these are the first two games
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: that we've seen to.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: Have this many runs scored.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and if you're the Rays, you still feel really good.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: You got game two at home. Freddie P, who has
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: been looking like a number one, right? You got to
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: feel really good. I know AJ mentioned it's not like
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: you have this great pitching plan set up for the
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: next few days in terms of having the edge over
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: the Guardians. These two teams both have starters, right? If
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Foster Griffin's able to at least fill some innings here
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: like he did today. That's what lines this team up
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: for Messick, who was one of the best pitchers in
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: baseball this year as a rookie, and then Gavin Williams
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: is ridiculous. So the Guardians are in good shape, but
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: this should be fun in terms of Freddie P on
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: the other side of it. 7-3. Cleveland keeps shocking the
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: world here, taking down the Rays in Game 1 of
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: the ALCS. That's full count. It is fueled by Marathon,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: where fun runs on full. Save up to $ 1 a
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: gallon with Marathon rewards. And, hey, game one, FoulTerritoryShop.com gear
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: is out there for the world. There's the race side, too,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: but Cleveland won, so we'll show off Jose Ramirez, Stephen Kwan,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: and Chase the Lauder shirts. They're sweet. Go get them, FoulTerritoryShop.com. And, lastly,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: before we get to the other series, if you're watching
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: right now, subscribe to FT. That noise might play in
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: your head. And set the alerts, too. We're live a
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: lot this month. And let's hit hot corner powered by
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: MLB nine innings rivals. And we're going to recap NLCS
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: game two. Wow. We see Yamamoto on the screen there, AJ.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, the Brewers were able to do something that
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: rarely anybody ever does. I'm talking about any other teams
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: is they were able to drive up pitch counts per
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: plate appearance. It was close to six pitches per plate appearance,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: of course, highlighted by the epic Jake Bowers, 12 pitch walk,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: six fouled off pitches in a row at one point.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: What did you think of the Brewers taking both games
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: at home here? They've been dominant in Milwaukee this year.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: This was Brewers.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: Again, this was like Brewers 101 baseball, put pressure, foul
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: pitches off, don't give away at bats. pitch really well
• 14:50
  Speaker 3: i mean other than the two errors by henderson the
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: dodgers haven't done shit for two games i'm sorry they
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: haven't done nothing but they have three hits in this
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: game the brewers bullpen went five innings in this game
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: and didn't give up forget it run they didn't give
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: up a base runner the last five innings the dodgers
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: did not get a base runner and this was the
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: concern coming into this series shohei's not healthy i'm sorry
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: they can say whatever they want he's not right okay
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: They're not– if they don't hit home runs, they're not
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: scoring because they have a hard time stringing hits and
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: hits and hits and hits together because they're not hot.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: So this was Brewers baseball to a tee. How do
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: you win if you're the Brewers? You get guys on base.
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: You put pressure on the other team. You occasionally hit
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: a big home run like William Contreras so he can
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: get the bazooka out and shoot it into the bullpen
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: every time. And you get your Ashby, Uribe, and McGill
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: didn't even pitch in this game. And you forgot JoJo
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: Romero who's filthy.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: Okay? And Dustin May came in and did a great
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: job for them. So this is the Brewers' path.
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: They're up 2-0. They know at least they're coming back
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: to Milwaukee. And by the way, they said it yesterday.
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: McGill said they're not the ones getting swept. They got
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: a chance to sweep the Dodgers and end all this
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: crazy talk. When you're watching Yamamoto throw, you're like, this
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: dude is in complete control of the game. And the
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: Brewers kind of flipped that switch. The whole game I'm
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: watching it, I was telling somebody, like, Okay, they brought
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: in Yamamoto, or they took Yamamoto out. And I don't
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: remember who came in next after who, but I'm like, man,
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: they got to move somebody's feet. While the Brewers aren't
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: taking like hellacious hacks, they're not moving their feet at all.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: They're not getting them uncomfortable.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: And then Edgardo Hernandez, Edgardo Henriquez, I forget what his
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: name is.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: The guy that throws 103.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: Henriquez, Edgardo Henriquez.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: Enriquez, thank you, threw 103 up at Cooper Pratt, who's
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: like 12 years old, threw 103 up at his head
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: with two strikes.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, all right, that's fine. Cooper's not going
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: to get a hit here.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: And he still stayed out on the next ball out
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: over the plate to be able to dump it out
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: over there. Like this Brewers team is playing, whether you
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: think each player individually is good, they're playing collectively. Like
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: they have not nothing to lose. Like they have this series,
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: and they're taking it to the Dodgers. Not, well, we'll
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: see what the Dodgers do. Because they're not even playing perfectly.
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: Like you would think, ah, the Brewers got to play perfectly.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: They got to play error-free. They got to make the
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: hot shot great plays like Cooper Pratt didn't make. And
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: they're still winning. It is incredible.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: And to be up 2-0 on this team going to LA,
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: they are in the driver's seat.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: And after Yamamoto was best, yeah, he punched out Mitchell
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: to get out of a little more traffic there. But crazy.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: I mean, Yamamoto, that was a 36 pitch inning. He
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: had 75 pitches, two and two thirds. I mean, last
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: year he was pitching in the NLCS in Milwaukee, a
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: complete game to show the difference of what Milwaukee does.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: It's not just contact. It's not just bunts. It's not
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: just stolen bases. They work counts.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: They take pitches.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: They foul off pitches.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: Derek Jeter nailed it when he said what he said
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: in the postgame. He said, we're talking small ball, we're
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: talking this and that. And he said the exact thing
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: that I love. He goes, this is the way baseball
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: is supposed to be played. You go up there and
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: you fight your ass off in every at-bat and you
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: do what the scoreboard tells you need to do. It's
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: not always you've got to hit a home run.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: If you need to bunt, you bunt.
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: How many times today did we see guys inside the ball,
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: hitting the ball to right field to get the guy
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: to third? Both teams did it today with a runner
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: on second and no outs. Balls inside, they're hitting balls
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: to right field, the ground balls to get the guy
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: to third to help their buddy behind them. Mookie did it.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: Someone else did it big time today. I think it
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: was Churio did it. Maybe he did it yesterday. Trujillo
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: has done it.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Trujillo did it today, right?
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: Mookie did it when– what's his name was on second base? Geez,
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: the nine-hole hitter I just blanked.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Sorry. Yeah, Pahez. When Pahez was on second, right?
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: So these guys are playing the game the right way.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: And I know the– listen, the Dodgers do it too.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: They just do it on– because they're bigger names, people
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: think they're just home runs and this and that. But
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: they do play the game the right way, so I
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: don't want to take that away from them. But the
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: Brewers play the game the way the game is supposed
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: to be played, whether that comes from Pat Murphy, the
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: coaching staff, Matt Arnold, Mark Antanasio, Bernie Brewer, Bob Euchre,
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: whoever you want to put it on, they play the
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: game the right way. And the Dodgers do also, okay?
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: So it's fun to watch these two teams play. And
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: the Rays and the Guardians also do this. That's why
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: these four teams are awesome to watch. they do things
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: right right like they get guys over they bunt they
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: play the way baseball is intended it's not just what
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: we saw in some of the other teams man if
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: I don't hit a home run we don't score okay
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: there's other ways to score in baseball than just hitting
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: a home run and it's a pressure, and it mounts,
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: and then you wear a pitcher out, you get into
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: the lesser guys in the bullpen, and then you just
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: pile on runs at the end. And the two teams
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: that won today, the Brewers and the Guardians, that's what
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: they did, and that's why they won.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: You can take your shot at hitting a homer. It's okay.
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, I saw Sal Frehlich take a couple shots
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: in different counts. That doesn't mean every single time you're
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: taking your shot and you're swinging for the downs. The
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: only thing I was going to say is about the
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: fact that, you know, the Brewers, yes, they weren't perfect,
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: all this stuff.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: Yesterday they won.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: An absolutely, like, just a great grind-em-out game, 2-1. And
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: one of the things that Pat Murphy said, we were
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: striking out too much. He still put it on them.
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: He keeps them accountable for the things that they did
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: throughout the year. And I think last year when– The
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: series happened like it did. They lost a tough game one.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: And then it was like, bing, bang, boom.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: Shut out. Going to LA. Otani happened. Over.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: And I think just little things that Murph's done has
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: helped set that tone.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: And these guys all believe it.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: They either believe it or they're so naive to it
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: because they're young.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: They're just like, we're going to go out and just
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: do what Murph says. Either way. They're getting huge contributions
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: from so many different places on this team.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: And, you know, there were some changes on the other side.
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: Edmund was hitting ninth today for L.A. Otani staying in cleanup.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: Will Smith going down to five. Teo to Oscar Hernandez
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: to the three-hole. Katie Wu and Ken Rosenthal, after this game,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: put out a story in The Athletic. What are you
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: looking at me weird?
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Three hits. Three hits. They had three hits.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: Oh, I'm not saying it worked. I'm saying they made changes.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: I'm just saying.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: This is my big lead up. They might make more changes.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: Did you see this? Can we show the tweet?
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: I saw it. It won't happen. No way this happens.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: No chance.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: They said there's talks that they might bench Shohei Otani.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: In game three. No chance.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: The fact that they're even talking about this, AJ, means
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: he is really hurt. And as soon as their season ends,
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: whenever it ends– They're going to announce how hurt he is.
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: Of course, right shoulder and left knee, right? Isn't it
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: right shoulder and left knee? You know where he got
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: both those injuries from?
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Pitching.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what he's not going to do next year?
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: You don't think he's going to pitch? Wow.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: Nope.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: And we're not laughing at the injury just.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: For everyone to know.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: This is a long history injury. Of AJ and Kratz
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: talking this year about some concerns with Otani going a
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: full workload all season long, and that didn't happen. Of course,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: he got hurt.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: This year?
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: I said it when he signed the contract, Scott.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: How many years until he doesn't pitch anymore? And you
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: guys all laughed. He's going to pitch all 10 years.
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: I'm like, he might wake up one day and say,
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: I ain't pitching anymore. And that day might come next year.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: It already happened this year because he was hurt. He
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: already missed a year because he had the arm problems, right?
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: So that's already a bunch of years he's missed without pitching.
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: This year he tried to pitch. He did great until
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: he got hurt. And now he can't hit because he
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: got hurt from pitching.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Sorry. I love Otani. I think he's awesome. I think
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: he's one of the.
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: Greatest things I've ever seen when he can pitch and
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: hit because I've never seen anybody be able to do this.
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: But at some point, is the juice worth the squeeze?
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I ain't Otani. I can't make that decision.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: And no, there's some in the chat just saying, Kratz,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: we're not laughing at the injury. Nobody's laughing at the injury.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: Who's dumb enough to think that we're laughing at an injury? Exactly.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: I'm just making sure.
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: He is more valuable to the Dodgers as a hitter
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: than a pitcher. Correct?
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: Because they have a lot of pitching, yes.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: And he was nasty and good for him for trying
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: to push for the Cy Young, all that stuff, but
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: not to break down mechanically what is going on, but
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: you can see, and he's got an unorthodox swing in
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: the sense of like, you know, it's that Japanese swing
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: where he can like move away from the plate. Like
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: you would like some coaches would be like, Oh, you're
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: pulling off. Like, They move away from the plate, but
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: they never move their core away from center, and then
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: they're able to fire through. It looks like when he
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: moves away from the plate, when he goes to take
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: his approach to the ball, it looks like there's nothing
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: behind it. And so right front shoulder, back left knee.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: It's something that is clearly bugging him. I have a
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: hard time believing it. raise your hand if you think
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: he is not in the lineup for game three.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't do it. I wanted to, but I
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: can't do it. I think that you have to have
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: his blessing to sit him.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: He's going to come back.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: No way. He's going to come back. And also, I mean,
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: they have a day, they have a travel day, right?
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: So good luck convincing him right there. There's a longer
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: term picture here, AJ. Okay. It's not like he's done nothing.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: He just doesn't have any pop for a while now.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: He can still work a walk. He can still get
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: a knock. He is a shell of himself, but convincing
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: him to sit when he's got that many years left
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: on his deal and all he's done for them.
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: What an awkward swing. What an awkward swing against, uh,
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: was it Romero when he swung and like flipped the bat?
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: Like what? I've never seen anybody even swing like that before.
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: That was, that was really awkward and By the way,
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: on the right of the screen, Aaron Ashby, he's absolutely disgusting.
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: By the way. Oh my gosh.
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: He's not fair. I wish I remember what the exact
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: number is. It's that Stuff Plus, which I don't even
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: understand what it is, but Trevor McGill was on the
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: show and he was joking. He calls them either 236
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: or 216, whatever it is.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: It shows.
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: I don't know what Stuff Plus exactly means other than
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: He is nasty. The hitters will tell you if you
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: should be in the game or not. And the hitters
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: on the Dodgers are good. While they're struggling right now,
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: they are really good and really good at grinding out
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: at bats. He has dominated them the first two games
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: of the series to go along with what he did
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: the last series against the Padres.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, their bullpen is insane. Insane right now. It's the
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: underrated story. I mean, AJ covered a lot last round.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Everybody talks about the Padres and their names and what
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: they've done the last few years. The Brewers had a
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: better bullpen ERA this year, right, AJ? They were number
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: one in bullpen ERA.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: They were number one.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: They just kind of snuck right in there into number one.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: And there's a fearsome four right now. It's not one, two.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: It's four.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: It's more than four. It's more than four.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but four. There's a core four in their highest leverage. Well, yes,
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: Romero pitched well. No. I mean, isn't it Hall, Uribe, McGill,
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: and Ashby? Obviously, Romero pitched well today, but those are the.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: He's trusted. Romero's trusted in a lefty pocket. Trust me.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: Murph trusts him.
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: Murph talked about him and said how he can use
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: him anywhere, but he really trusts him against lefties. So
• 27:35
  Speaker 3: there's five at least that they have that they trust.
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: They haven't even thrown Drohan. They haven't thrown Patrick yet.
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, they haven't even– those two guys haven't even
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: touched the mound and they've, you know, won four out
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: of five in the– or was it five out of
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: six now in the postseason. Those three– those two guys who– Now,
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: one of them is going to have to start game four.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: We'll see who it is.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: I think one of them, I'm not going to mention name,
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: might have a little injury bug that's keeping them out.
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: But they got pitching. They got pitching.
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: Dustin May gave them a– what we've talked about on
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: this post show is trades. Dustin May gave them a
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: huge inning. I honestly kind of questioned it. Correct me
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: if I'm wrong. I think the game was tied at
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: that time. Or maybe they were behind.
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: I forget. I forget.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: I think they were behind because that's when Logan didn't
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: feel the bunt and he threw it away. He gave
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: him a huge inning there. How many guys– like he
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: might start game four.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Like there is– No, he won't. You
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: don't think so? I watched him start in San Diego.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: I don't think they'll start him. Okay.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: But then you have all those other guys.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: You gave up the sack fly too to Freddie Freeman. Yeah,
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was 3-3 in the fifth. And, yeah,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: he pitched okay. But, yeah, I mean, that was when
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Mookie had the ground ball to move the runner over
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: and he did the fist pump. And then Freddie had
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: the sack fly right after that to score Edmund and
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: make it 4-3. Yeah. So there was still a damage.
• 29:09
  Speaker 3: I don't think he'll start. I don't think he'll start.
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: I just don't. I mean, he's got a great arm.
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: I just don't think they trust him to start. They
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: trusted him to try to get out of that inning.
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: He did fine.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: I think you see Patrick or Drohan.
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: Starting game four. I mean, we already know that Gasser's
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: starting game three. I just don't think they trust Dustin May.
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: It's going to be tough because they're not going to
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: give Gasser a ton of innings either. So this is
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: where they're going to get into three games in a row. Gasser,
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: I mean, what can you expect out of Gasser?
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: Three innings? Four innings?
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: And then you have another starter in Drohan or Patrick
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: who gives you another three, possibly four innings? Like, they're
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: going to be taxed. They are going to be taxed.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: We knew this.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: This is where you get caught. That's how this works.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: In the middle three, when you have to play three
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: games in a row is where you get caught.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: This is where you kind of get caught.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but the Dodgers have only gotten– they've gotten less
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: than eight innings out of their starters in the first two.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: I agree. It's not like they're walking through and guess what?
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: Blake Snell didn't look good last time around.
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: He didn't have it. They need Snell and Glass now
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: to step up.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: They need– but they have– at least on paper when
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: you look at it, you say, okay, do I trust
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: Blake Snell or Robert Gasser? I test Tyler Gasnow or
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: Dustin May or Patrick or draw on.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Who do you trust?
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Glassnow. Yeah.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: I mean, this is why we said they had an advantage.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Even though they barely pitched this year, but they got
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: paid for October.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: But they're paid to pitch this time of year. And
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: by the way, you get to game five, you got
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: Miz and Scooble again.
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: So it's not– listen, all's not lost to the Dodgers.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: They're in a tough spot because the Brewers are playing
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: really well.
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: And by the way, while we're on the subject of
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: the Dodgers, Kyle Tucker's looked pretty darn good, so let's
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: give him a little bit of flowers for the way
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: he's swung the bat in the postseason. Yeah, well, that's
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: not saying much because the Dodgers don't have a lot
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: of hits, but he's swung the bat and he's had
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: really good at-bats.
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: Yep, that's how you wipe away a bad regular season.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, same crats with your old teammate, Christian Yellich,
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: didn't have a good year. He came up with, I mean,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: he was huge in this one today and he's had
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: a good postseason so far. It's really what, him, William
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: Contreras had a huge, huge game too. for these guys,
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: including smash terrain. Yeah. I mean, their big boys are
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: showing up here.
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, David Hamilton didn't start the first game and
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: then he comes in and scores three runs. Like the
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: speed that he has, that'll be something that's kind of,
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: we didn't get really into nuts and bolts. The fact
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: that glass now is not going to hold runners. So
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: whenever glass now pitches are the brewers going to unleash
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: the the running is Will Smith going to be able
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: to mix and match and be able to keep them
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: like there's, there's dynamics that the Brewers, they haven't played
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: clean defense. They haven't been running all over the place.
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: Like you would think they would. And they're still winning
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: these games. So it's not like they're just playing out
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: of their mind. They can't, you know, but right now
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: to me, it's either William Contreras is the MVP or Ashby.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: They ran when they could. They ran when they could,
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: did they?
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: I mean, Will Smith made one really good throw, but
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: other than that, they were running when they could. And
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: they're going to take advantage of it.
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: Trust me.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: There's one thing Murph and the scouts for the Brewers
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: and the front office and everyone for the Brewers is
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: going to tell you, they take advantage of every opportunity
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: they have. And so I think that they're going to.
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: You'll see them. You'll see them. If they got something
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: on Snell's move, they'll take off. If they have something
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: on Glassnow, he's slower. Guess what?
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: They're going to take off. That's what the Brewers do.
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: They take advantage of any little mistakes. And by the way,
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: those two throws by Henderson, Berf was not very happy.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: I think he was upset at William on the first one.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: I'll be honest.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: For the pickoff throw? Yeah.
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: Because he said in his interview, he's like, why are
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: we throwing over there on a guy who's not going
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: in that situation? They're like, Mookie's not going in that situation.
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: And then you saw Murph yelling... towards home plate. Maybe
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: that was his way of not yelling directly at Logan.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: Well, don't yell too much at wild bill tied up
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: the game early on, on a tough pitch, right? That
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: was a, a slider, not easy to dig for on
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: two strikes, tie up the game. And then I had
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: a four 36 foot bomb later on. I mean, he
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: had some clutch knocks.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: He's having a great season. He's having a huge season.
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: He is.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: He's a fun one. Yeah.
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: I've never seen anybody like pause, pimp, blooper into left field.
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: I thought it was a sack fly. I was like, oh,
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: he's juiced to hit a sack fly. And then it
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: was like 36 seconds or something. It took him to
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: get around the bases. I bet that plate was standard.
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: Did you watch our last series where he hit the
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: home runs? He went 37 seconds on one and 34
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: we had him. At one point, we didn't ever run it.
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: We never ran it. Maybe they'll run it this time.
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: but we synced up his home run trot around the bases.
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: We were going to do it, but we never got
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: a chance to. And I think it was game three
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: or game four and he was running and it was
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: like the, it was like the, uh, the stack cast
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: guy running around the bases and we were going to
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: show a pitch and then he was still going and
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: then we're going to show another pitch and he was
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: still going with this, you know, like stop that he
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: would stop. Like the little guy would stop or he stops,
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: you know, and pause. So every time the guy stopped,
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: we were going to show a pitch and then, just
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: to show how long it took him. It was pretty awesome.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: I know we didn't run it. We just never got to,
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: but it was pretty funny.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Today was 35.7 seconds on the home run track.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: So he's, He's soaking up the moment.
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: Good for him, man. In the game we play today,
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: good for him. He used to get thrown at and
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: guys used to get mad. In the game we play today,
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: soak it up, man.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: Take it all in. Who cares?
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: The other team don't care. Why should anyone else? Why
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: should some old retired guy care? The other team he's
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: playing against don't care?
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: No.
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: It was a bomb, too. It was a bomb. And
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: he knew it right away. It was awesome.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a tying shot. Then you had the
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: go-ahead knock that we're talking about where he turned it
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: into almost looking like a walk-off to pull off the
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: knock there. So good for him. Good for the Brewers.
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: They're up 2-0. They're two games away from their first
• 35:45

• 37:09
  Speaker 1: Chury today.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: Dude, I got to tell you all this funny story
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: about Miz. So when Sale was pitching, I didn't know
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: this about Chris Sale. Miz is like so jealous of
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: Chris Sale. He's got like an unbelievable Pokemon collection. I
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: had no idea, Sale, that you had a Pokemon collection.
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: And so he was talking about it with me in
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: the locker room, and he's like, do you know the
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: collection that Chris Sale has for Pokemon?
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, dude, what are you talking about?
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: He started rattling off these things, and I'm literally like,
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: what are you talking about, dude? And he's like, oh,
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: Sale went all in, and he bought all these cards,
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: and he's got all– And I was like, okay, what's
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: your card you have? And he's like, I don't know.
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: He said some name or something I never even heard of.
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: And I was like, how much is that worth? And
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: he gave me a number, and I was like, a
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: Pokemon card is worth that number?
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: He's like, oh, yeah.
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: And sales got about seven of them. And I'm like, okay,
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: time to go because I don't know what in the
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: hell you're talking about, but they are expensive as crap.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: That's what he does on his off days. Dude, he's
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: the dream ace.
• 38:12
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: You're like, oh, what's Miz going to do on his
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: off day? Oh, make sure he doesn't stay out too late. No, actually,
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: he's going to sleep at 9. He had a busy
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: day at the card shop for a couple hours.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: That's awesome. Good for him, man. It is awesome.
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: He's a big kid.
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: Because he's trying to collect the Pikachu Illustrator.

• 38:41
  Speaker 1: this will get covered on.

  Speaker 3: By the way, what was the card he got? What
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: did he get, a one-on-one card for his cleats? A
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: one-on-one card for his cleats and his jersey? Remember, did
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: you guys see that in San Diego where he gave
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: a one-on-one card away, right? Or he got a one-on-one
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: card of himself. He opened it. He opened it, and
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: he was super juiced, and he told Antonacio, Mark Antonacio,
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: the owner, he was like right there, and he was juiced,
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: and he was showing, and Antonacio was like, I'm definitely
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: going to be able to lock this guy up for cheap.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: No, no, no. A guy gave it. A fan gave
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: it to him in San Diego. Oh, no, I didn't
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: see that.
