Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Detroit.
- 0:00Speaker 2: It seemed untouchable and now just one game back. Scooble
- 0:05Speaker 2: on the bunk gets that strikeout swinging to end the inning.
- 0:08Speaker 2: He would have eight k's on the day. But we're
- 0:11Speaker 2: gonna pick it out now. Top of the six, two out,
- 0:13Speaker 2: Riley Green with a two out home run. Huh ding dung.
- 0:18Speaker 3: Jump them sounds like this is lenya. You know it
- 0:21Speaker 3: wouldn't really a ding dung jumping.
- 0:23Speaker 2: This play was wild. Scooble picks up the bunch, tries
- 0:27Speaker 2: to snap it like a center in football.
- 0:30Speaker 4: Monday night football is not tonight though.
- 0:31Speaker 2: No run scores. Now this play is graphic. Please turn
- 0:36Speaker 2: away if you can't handle it because it is intense.
- 0:39Speaker 4: Wow.
- 0:40Speaker 2: David fry squares up to Bunch Scooble ninety nine miles
- 0:43Speaker 2: per hour. You could see he was clearly impacted by that.
- 0:47Speaker 2: He would go to the hospital Frywood for observation. He's
- 0:50Speaker 2: likely going to be held overnight. The play stopped for
- 0:53Speaker 2: a long time, making sure he's okay. And this is
- 0:57Speaker 2: like two pitches later, another run. Schools were tied and
- 1:04Speaker 2: it would keep coming. Scooble another run there. Cleveland goes
- 1:09Speaker 2: on to win this one five to two. That hit
- 1:11Speaker 2: by pitch clearly impacting the game. Here's Scooble afterwards.
- 1:17Speaker 3: Sixth name, you pretty much dominate them. Big shock that
- 1:21Speaker 3: they come out with that small ball attack on you.
- 1:23Speaker 3: And then and Washington, I didn't watch the anima.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Yeah, it's kind of I mean a lot of balls
- 1:28Speaker 1: are I mean, two bunt singles, a swinging bunt, A
- 1:33Speaker 1: lot of unfortunate things kind of happened there, and then
- 1:35Speaker 1: unlucky things happened there to end up giving up three
- 1:38Speaker 1: and giving up to lead.
- 1:42Speaker 2: All right, here is the postseason picture now, and then
- 1:45Speaker 2: look at that on the left Cleveland Guardians Division leaders.
- 1:49Speaker 4: That's crazy.
- 1:52Speaker 2: For the first time since April, Houston's on the outside
- 1:55Speaker 2: looking in, and suddenly Detroit is finding themselves in a
- 1:58Speaker 2: wild card race.
- 2:00Speaker 4: Would you not see this? No?
- 2:02Speaker 2: I thought that was going to be unthinkable. How do
- 2:04Speaker 2: you process that inning by school there Page Row, Whether
- 2:08Speaker 2: it was the snap between the legs which led to
- 2:10Speaker 2: a run, the hit by pitch and then the wild pitch.
- 2:13Speaker 2: What happened there in that sixth.
- 2:14Speaker 3: Well, obviously, uh schoolbo, I guess try to do magic
- 2:19Speaker 3: with the with the baseball down there.
- 2:21Speaker 2: It would have looked pretty. It would have looked great,
- 2:23Speaker 2: but unfortunately you have.
- 2:26Speaker 3: To you know, play baseball fundamentally right. If you can
- 2:32Speaker 3: do it or whether you're gonna get it done, just
- 2:35Speaker 3: do it the right way. But after the hit by pitch,
- 2:39Speaker 3: obviously a good man like Tarik Skubo is bothered by
- 2:43Speaker 3: by what he saw. And uh, you could see that
- 2:47Speaker 3: when Fry was leaving, actually gave him a little sign
- 2:50Speaker 3: like I'm okay, but uh, it seemed to bother him.
- 2:54Speaker 3: And even after when he was talking, I could sense
- 2:57Speaker 3: that he was kind of concerned about it. But if
- 3:00Speaker 3: there's something I must say to Tarik Schooble, you didn't
- 3:05Speaker 3: meant to do that, so don't hang your head on it.
- 3:08Speaker 3: I'm sorry for you know, the next a three that
- 3:10Speaker 3: got hit got hurt. But things happen in baseball, So
- 3:14Speaker 3: please don't hang your head and don't quit pitching inside either,
- 3:18Speaker 3: because he's gonna need it for the rest of his career.
- 3:21Speaker 3: And everybody knows that nobody wants to hurt anybody that way.
- 3:26Speaker 3: So Fry get better and Schoolbull keep your head up.
- 3:30Speaker 2: But now just looking forward here Detroit throughout schoolbl and
- 3:35Speaker 2: you lose that game and Now you've got two more
- 3:38Speaker 2: games against the Guardians. We see that there. Guardians will
- 3:41Speaker 2: then face three against the Rangers. Tigers has three at Boston.
- 3:45Speaker 2: They lose the schoolbul now what.
- 3:47Speaker 5: They lose the school bul And then you saw the
- 3:49Speaker 5: Cleveland Guardian fans slowly coming in. Now they got optimism,
- 3:54Speaker 5: Now they're excited. The good thing is the same energy
- 3:57Speaker 5: is going to be there tomorrow, and you're still in
- 3:59Speaker 5: a good spot. You win tomorrow, now you're back on top.
- 4:02Speaker 5: You've just flipped it so unfortunately you've given it up. Yeah,
- 4:06Speaker 5: it's now zero zero. Forget everything that's happened right now,
- 4:09Speaker 5: when and when out You still control your own destiny.
- 4:12Speaker 5: But you got to take care of tomorrow. Even though
- 4:15Speaker 5: school's done. Tomorrow it's zero zero. Cleveland's gonna have the
- 4:18Speaker 5: same side of things going. Plus their fans are gonna
- 4:21Speaker 5: come there. Steven Vote, their manager asked the fans to
- 4:24Speaker 5: come out. They came, and they're gonna come in and
- 4:26Speaker 5: leaving a larger grow tomorrow.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Make a prediction for me, Jimmy, who wins this division.
- 4:32Speaker 5: The Wacky Central.
- 4:32Speaker 4: Oh wow, it's a tough one, it is, And I
- 4:35Speaker 4: am going to go with the Cleveland Guardians. They're they're
- 4:39Speaker 4: they're riding the momentum they've they've been chasing this team down,
- 4:42Speaker 4: and we've always said that the team that was fighting
- 4:46Speaker 4: for their life is always going to be the most
- 4:48Speaker 4: dangerous team. They've they've had on their battle gear for
- 4:50Speaker 4: the last month. They've seen this lead, and it was
- 4:53Speaker 4: kind of like, you guys, know, for light, let us
- 4:54Speaker 4: win one, just let us get there. We're there, We're
- 4:57Speaker 4: facing them. They're controlling their own destiny the team that
- 5:00Speaker 4: was in front of them. They're playing straight up. Yes,
- 5:03Speaker 4: we can't take control of this division this series. It
- 5:06Speaker 4: was going back to seven when we played you guys
- 5:08Speaker 4: at our place. We have four games. We're like, we
- 5:11Speaker 4: won't win the division with these four games, but it
- 5:14Speaker 4: would definitely put us in position, and things have to
- 5:16Speaker 4: go right. They have a better situation. They're playing the
- 5:19Speaker 4: team that was ahead ahead of them. Now they have
- 5:22Speaker 4: a chance to make some distance between them and the
- 5:24Speaker 4: team that's behind them.
- 5:25Speaker 3: I'm not ready to give up on the under Detroit
- 5:27Speaker 3: Tigers because they have been faithed with adversity the entire
- 5:32Speaker 3: season and they were able to survive that. They have
- 5:35Speaker 3: a really good manager in them. They have a whole
- 5:38Speaker 3: bunch of young players that are really hungry. I think
- 5:43Speaker 3: if there is something for this team to show, they
- 5:47Speaker 3: need to show it in the next two And.
- 5:48Speaker 4: Also, but Cleveland's face adversity too. They came out and
- 5:51Speaker 4: lost their closer in the middle of the season. That
- 5:53Speaker 4: everything in the Riots, like what are we doing? You know,
- 5:56Speaker 4: just kind of goes to that.
- 5:57Speaker 3: They have to part. They have the right ingredient, which
- 6:00Speaker 3: is momentum to their side. But I think watching watching
- 6:07Speaker 3: Detroit play all year and going through everybody in the
- 6:12Speaker 3: league kind of leaves me with the sense that if
- 6:17Speaker 3: they are able to just pick up one more game,
- 6:19Speaker 3: they're gonna be okay.
- 6:21Speaker 2: Sixteen of eighteen Cleveland has won, which is talk about
- 6:24Speaker 2: a hot baseball club. Only one thing left to do,
- 6:29Speaker 2: talk about great movies, major league win, the whole damn thing.
