A 27 00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:31.359 lot of Dodger fans fired up this morning, saxy about 28 00:01:31.359 --> 00:01:34.519 what the two Yankee fans did to Mookie Bets, but 29 00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:38.519 also fired up for this Dodgers team and getting back 30 00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:44.000 on track. I can feel little tents, attitude, little tints 31 00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:46.280 feeling around the office here as I make my way 32 00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:49.000 through the building during the commercial breaks, you know, people 33 00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:52.840 asking me, what's gonna happen? Can the Yankees got the momental? 34 00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:55.120 What do you think? Can Jack Felerty stop it tonight? 35 00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:57.359 What's gonna happen? You think Garrett Cole is gonna to 36 00:01:57.439 --> 00:01:59.760 dominate the Dodgers. I don't know. I don't know how 37 00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:02.920 it's to play out. I certainly hope hope Jack fulherity 38 00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:05.599 goes out there and shoves. I hope the Dodgers offense 39 00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:09.439 gets after Garrett Cole, Bud. You can feel the tense feelings. Now, 40 00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:13.360 what what's this celibratory mood yesterday? And getting ready for 41 00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:16.400 a world series parade, and some idiot on the radio 42 00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:18.479 said this series is O v R. I don't know 43 00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:21.919 who that was, but now we got ourselves for fight here, Sack. 44 00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:23.719 You got a nice little fight going right now. 45 00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:26.560 I think that the general narrative has to be with 46 00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:29.479 the Dodgers in that locker room is one word, and 47 00:02:29.479 --> 00:02:33.080 that's trust. You gotta trust what you got going. You 48 00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:35.639 gotta trust you know, the guys, the starters. You got 49 00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:37.919 three guys lined up right now. You know, for the 50 00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:41.319 most part, you know, you wish everybody's one hundred percent healthy. 51 00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:41.800 They're not. 52 00:02:41.960 --> 00:02:44.159 Freddie is not one hundred percent healthy, but it has 53 00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:47.680 an affected him. Right Otani of course is having to 54 00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:49.960 hold his arm up to his in his jersey so 55 00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:52.599 he can run properly. He's not one hundred percent, but 56 00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:53.240 that's okay. 57 00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:54.000 They're still playing. 58 00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:56.840 There's still banging heads with these guys, and you just 59 00:02:56.960 --> 00:03:00.439 got to trust that you're really, you know, got the 60 00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:03.719 best you can be considered. You know, along the lines 61 00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:05.960 of the injuries, you have the guys that you got it, 62 00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:07.639 guys that are hot on this team, that can do it, 63 00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:10.000 and so yeah, you just got to say trust it 64 00:03:10.039 --> 00:03:10.719 and let her go. 65 00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:11.120 All right. 66 00:03:11.199 --> 00:03:13.120 I don't mean to go after show Heyotani, but I'm 67 00:03:13.159 --> 00:03:15.599 gonna go after Showyotani. I know he's got the bang 68 00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:17.759 dubb shoulder, but if he's good enough to get out 69 00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:20.439 there and play show Hey, needs to be show Hey. 70 00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:22.560 I need to see some of these the show Hey 71 00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:25.599 magic out of Show Hey Otani. Runners on base last night, 72 00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:28.360 had an opportunity, came up, could not deliver, had a 73 00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:31.599 hit last night, but also struck out last night. Has 74 00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:35.479 been very quiet in this World Series outside of the 75 00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:37.479 ball he hit off the wall and it ended up 76 00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.280 at third base at the game at Dodger Stadium. Just 77 00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:42.039 haven't seen a lot of Otani. I know they're saying 78 00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:43.560 the same thing about Aaron Judge in New York. But 79 00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:46.080 this is the World Series. This is the biggest stage. 80 00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:49.840 Superstars have to be at that level. We're seeing it 81 00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:52.599 from Freddie Freeman, got to see it from Showey Ootani. 82 00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:54.000 We just have to first. 83 00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:56.120 Pitch of the game yesterday, probably a foot and a 84 00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:58.560 half two feet out of the zone. He offered it 85 00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:01.560 the pitch. Okay, look things about that number one. I 86 00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:03.960 don't want to take the aggressiveness out of Show Hey Otani. 87 00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:06.360 I like the action. 88 00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:08.400 I like him, you know, putting it on the line 89 00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:11.560 and being aggressive and going for it. However, you know, 90 00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:15.120 professionally speaking, ball's way too high. You know what the 91 00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:16.879 differences are. But when you have a one oh count 92 00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:20.639 compared to an oh one count, they're massive differences. So 93 00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:23.759 every pitch can get can get the whittled down to 94 00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:26.279 the micro level and you can kind of analyze the 95 00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:28.600 hell out of this. But you know what, let her fly? 96 00:04:28.959 --> 00:04:31.759 I mean, what the heck? You don't want to change 97 00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:34.720 the essence of what Otani's about. He's an aggressive guy. 98 00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:36.959 You know, he's looking to go deep every time he 99 00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:39.959 gets in the box. Damn he almost hit sixty this year. Yeah, 100 00:04:40.160 --> 00:04:43.519 let him go. And I think, look, he's only got 101 00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:45.600 to be right once. I mean, you get three guys 102 00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:48.319 on like Freddie Freeman did and hit the Grand Slam, 103 00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:50.759 you only got to be right one time, right, And 104 00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:53.399 that pitcher has to be right every pitch. He's only 105 00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:54.240 got to be right once. 106 00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:56.839 What about a god like Maxi Muncie oh for three 107 00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:59.560 three punch outs last night he drew walk and as 108 00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:01.600 what you mentioned earlier, there was that one time he 109 00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:04.240 had twelve stream row. Yeah, I get it. He's he 110 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:06.120 can walk, he can get on bays. We can certainly 111 00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:08.199 know he get the long ball. I look at the 112 00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:10.240 bats last night and then even go back to the 113 00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:13.199 last couple of games here this World Series. Max a 114 00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:16.000 munths he doesn't look completely comfortable at the play. He's 115 00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:18.920 chasing pitches. He doesn't seem like his timing's on. You 116 00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:20.879 can make a case he looks lost at the plate. 117 00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:23.480 Well, he's chasing the high pitch right now. There are 118 00:05:23.519 --> 00:05:26.519 some really good sliders that were thrown down and into 119 00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:28.680 the back foot of Muncie, and he took him. 120 00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:29.639 He spit right on him. 121 00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:31.199 I mean three inches out. 122 00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:34.439 Of the zone and I'm thinking d yum Man, Max 123 00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:37.000 is on it now, you know. And then they throw 124 00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:38.839 the pitch up in the zone. He's a high ball hitter. 125 00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:42.000 That's where he makes his living. And he know he did. 126 00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:44.199 He swings and misses. He has a little bit of 127 00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:46.199 a trend to swing upward on the ball, as do 128 00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:51.560 most hitters today. He liked that, right, Yeah, what we 129 00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:53.319 don't want to get down that road. No, I don't 130 00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:56.160 like that. But that's the way. That's what it is today. 131 00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:58.639 And you know what it's not. It's almost like you 132 00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:00.160 live or die with it. You know he's gonna get 133 00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:02.240 a home run or he's gonna swing and miss. And 134 00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:03.879 that's why I like swinging down to the ball. But 135 00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:06.920 that's another story. But I think if he just brings 136 00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:09.120 it down. See, for a lot of hitters, you got 137 00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:12.360 to tell that. You gotta make sure that you tell yourself, hey, 138 00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:14.839 I got to make that picture bring the ball up, 139 00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:16.920 because most of the time they get you down out 140 00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:21.040 low on the zone. Today, hitters aren't pitchers aren't stupid. 141 00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:24.399 They know that hitters like to swing up on the ball. 142 00:06:24.720 --> 00:06:27.519 So if you're pitching up in the zone and he's 143 00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:29.519 swinging up, guess where he's gonna hit at the bottom 144 00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:31.319 of the ball like they want to do, and they're 145 00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:33.480 gonna either pop it up or swing and miss. So 146 00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:36.040 that's why today you've got to have a guy like 147 00:06:36.079 --> 00:06:38.439 Max Munsey say, hey, I got to make this guy 148 00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:40.800 bring the ball down in the zone so I can 149 00:06:40.839 --> 00:06:43.240 get more of a level cut at the ball. So 150 00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:45.879 that's what it is today. It's opposite when I was playing, 151 00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:49.279 it's make him bring it up. Today's version is make 152 00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:51.279 him bring it down. And I think that's what Max 153 00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:51.680 has to. 154 00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:54.240 Do great analysis from the great Steve Sacks there on 155 00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:56.920 Max Munsey what he needs to do and certainly if 156 00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:59.199 he can get it going, just another added factor for 157 00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:02.279 this Dodgers off events going into Game five tonight. Mookie 158 00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:05.720 Bets last night drove in a run, Mookie had a 159 00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:08.759 base base excuse me, scored a run, and also had 160 00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:11.720 that incident along the right field line. Afterwards. Mookie Betts 161 00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:13.920 didn't want to hear about the incident down the line 162 00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:16.040 when he talked to the media. 163 00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:17.920 And when it comes to the person in play, it 164 00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:21.399 doesn't matter. We lost, it's irrelevant. I'm fine, he's fine, 165 00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:25.920 everything's cool, and we need the game. We lost the game, 166 00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:27.920 and that's that's what I'm kind of focused on. You 167 00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:29.199 got to turn the page and get ready. 168 00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:32.759 For tomorrow game story much. 169 00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:33.040 I'm not sure. 170 00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:38.040 I can't look back over there. Everything's fine. 171 00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:40.160 A lot of you guys were talking about that. 172 00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:43.160 You the Yankees working to lay down You know, what 173 00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:45.279 did you see differently out of out of the them? 174 00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:47.680 Obviously they hit the wall, but just to kind of 175 00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:50.639 turn the page for the fight they're gonna fight. If 176 00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:52.879 you made it this far, you you have a resilient team. 177 00:07:52.879 --> 00:07:56.480 That's gonna fight the whole time. We expect that. Obviously, 178 00:07:56.519 --> 00:07:58.279 we didn't play well today and they did, and that's 179 00:07:58.279 --> 00:08:01.439 why they won. The feeling of ready home and again 180 00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:03.720 the first inning for too nothing to leave, it just 181 00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:07.319 went out. I mean the show great, it's great trying 182 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:10.240 to get on the board first, and that they fall 183 00:08:10.360 --> 00:08:13.319 back and can't do anything about it. Now do you 184 00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:18.120 ever have to rationality? No, I've never had that, but 185 00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:20.120 again it's a rodant. 186 00:08:22.600 --> 00:08:24.120 You guys have been so patient at the plate. 187 00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:26.279 There were a few more strikeouts today or what you 188 00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:27.160 attribute that to? 189 00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:29.279 Is it just trying to make something happen in later 190 00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:32.360 in I would say we're human beings and we're not 191 00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:35.120 machines up there. So they had a bad game and 192 00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:38.159 as part of it, so we upturned the page and 193 00:08:38.200 --> 00:08:38.879 get ready for tomorrow. 194 00:08:40.799 --> 00:08:43.639 Do you feel like you're still pretty control of the series. 195 00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:45.679 Or when a team wins a game like this you're 196 00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:47.279 worried and might get. 197 00:08:47.159 --> 00:08:50.600 Them a little more life. 198 00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:52.320 I mean, we're up three to one right now. We 199 00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:54.360 feel pretty good about it. But you needed that they're 200 00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:57.879 they're gonna fight. It doesn't matter what the score is 201 00:08:57.879 --> 00:08:59.960 and doesn't matter when when they're gonna They're gonna fight, 202 00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:02.919 and so just I mean, no lead is safe until 203 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:05.960 you win the fourth game. Well, so, Muki, you know 204 00:09:06.039 --> 00:09:07.759 going into this, you knew this was going to be 205 00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:08.879 an up and down series. 206 00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:10.519 Anyway, some good for him and some. 207 00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:11.440 Good good for you. 208 00:09:12.039 --> 00:09:14.759 Yeah, I mean, they didn't make it this far on accident, 209 00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:17.320 So you know what I mean. Act they're a really 210 00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:19.320 good ball club, and they showed it tonight. 211 00:09:19.720 --> 00:09:21.720 All right, there's a mookie post game last night. I'm 212 00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:25.120 not sure the constant asking them about did you expect 213 00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:26.799 the Yankees to keep put up a fight? Do you 214 00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:28.759 did you expect this to be a serious Of course 215 00:09:28.799 --> 00:09:31.120 they expected it to be a series. Of course, the 216 00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:32.879 Yankees are going to put up a fight. They're not 217 00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:34.919 going to go quietly. They got here. They want to win, 218 00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:37.960 was what I mean. Sometimes the media ask such stupid questions. 219 00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:40.799 Yeah, yeah, no, we know, we expect them to lay down. 220 00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:43.240 I can't believe they even you know, got one run. 221 00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:45.519 We were shocked to see them, quite shocked. You believe 222 00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:47.039 they were the best team in the American League. I 223 00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:49.120 can't believe they're here and they're fighting against us, and 224 00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:50.080 what do you think they're gonna do. 225 00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:51.759 I don't. I don't know if I like the fact that. 226 00:09:51.879 --> 00:09:54.320 I mean, he doesn't want to harp on the incident 227 00:09:54.360 --> 00:09:57.559 in the first and I understand that, but uh, it 228 00:09:57.639 --> 00:09:59.960 was a big incident. I mean, he wants to downplay. 229 00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:02.240 He says, I'm fine, it say irrelevant, we lost the game. 230 00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:05.279 I get all that, but I mean, Mooki, it's it's 231 00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:07.840 a pretty serious incident fan grabbing on to you and 232 00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:09.039 holding on, not letting you move. 233 00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:13.600 Muki's an absolute, you know, top flight competitor. And I'm 234 00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:16.279 not speaking for Mooki at all, that's not my business, 235 00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:19.840 but I got to think that he said, man, I'd 236 00:10:19.919 --> 00:10:22.600 like to thump that sucker. I mean, of course he would. 237 00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:23.720 You know who wouldn't you know? 238 00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:25.279 Some loser like. 239 00:10:25.279 --> 00:10:27.639 That is grabbing the ball out of your God. 240 00:10:27.679 --> 00:10:29.440 The more I think about it, right, and I'm just kidding, 241 00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:31.320 I'm like you, I'm getting ticked off, right, And I 242 00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:32.960 don't want to do that. That's not a good spot. 243 00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:34.720 I mean, I don't want to be ticked off. It's 244 00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:36.039 not good We said it earlier. 245 00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:39.000 It's like a WWE match in which the referee is 246 00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:42.279 not looking in these two Jabbroni knuckleheads from New York. 247 00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:44.679 One grabs a wrist, the other one grabs the other 248 00:10:44.840 --> 00:10:46.559 arm and tries to get the ball out. Now, like, 249 00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:49.440 nobody's gonna see this. What's a Jabbroni? You've used it 250 00:10:49.480 --> 00:10:51.840 a few times. I haven't gotten to grasp what a 251 00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:53.120 Jabbroni is? 252 00:10:52.759 --> 00:10:52.879 Is that? 253 00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:54.960 Is that a is that just kind of like a 254 00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:57.919 surname for something or what is it? 255 00:10:57.919 --> 00:11:00.000 It's just like an idiot, you know, a foolish dude. 256 00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:00.240 Dude. 257 00:11:00.279 --> 00:11:03.120 You know, I was gonna I almost almost a loser, Yeah, 258 00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:05.240 I almost. I was going to use the word. These 259 00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:08.120 guys were a couple of troglodytes. Okay, but but you 260 00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:09.639 know I didn't go there. I didn't want to, you know, 261 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:11.879 do that. But Jabroni is kind of kind of an 262 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:14.519 Italian you know, background to it as well, you know, yeah, 263 00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:16.919 an idiot, a stupid guy. Yeah, a loser, you know, 264 00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:21.879 Jabroni freaking loser, Yeah, trogadit'e a guy that lives under 265 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:24.480 a bridge or you know, just kind of like a caveman. Like, Okay, 266 00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:27.120 these guys are about that smart exact. 267 00:11:27.879 --> 00:11:30.000 PJ and Whitty are you next up here? On Saxon 268 00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:31.240 Kates and am how you doing? PJ? 269 00:11:32.879 --> 00:11:33.600 Hey, how you doing? 270 00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:33.879 Guys? 271 00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.240 Thanks for picking my call. Hey a couple of points here. Yeah, 272 00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:40.279 since you've been talking about this for a while, last 273 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:45.159 few segments that Mookie, this incident terrible. I feel we 274 00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:48.080 would have been equally as a fit if anything like 275 00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:51.039 this having a Dodger stadium. So I hope, you know, uh, 276 00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:56.039 looking at the fans in New York cheering on when 277 00:11:56.080 --> 00:11:59.080 Otani got hurt, I hope a lot of New York 278 00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:01.879 fans just you know, just speak out against all that. 279 00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:05.240 It's really really a bad class. And those two idiots 280 00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:07.919 you know last night were idiots. I even didn't even 281 00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:11.159 like when was it and one of our excuse one 282 00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:14.879 of our fans took away a double or he reached 283 00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:16.480 over the fence to do that. 284 00:12:16.840 --> 00:12:17.679 I was upset. 285 00:12:17.679 --> 00:12:20.080 Even though it costs, it wasn't it wouldn't have been 286 00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:23.639 a home run, But just the fact that they're interfering, 287 00:12:23.679 --> 00:12:26.720 I'm like, come on, let them play, don't don't be idiots. 288 00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:29.000 You're out there to enjoy the game, don't try to 289 00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:31.360 mess it up. So anyway, on that point, I hope 290 00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:34.600 the New York media and the New York fans really 291 00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:38.159 get on these knuckleheads and like, you guys, what the 292 00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:40.360 heck they're letting them back the next day. Come on. 293 00:12:40.600 --> 00:12:43.879 So anyway, that's that. The last point is the way 294 00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:46.799 I see this series is the way I've always seen baseball, 295 00:12:47.320 --> 00:12:51.279 where and sax you know this. Players have slumps, teams 296 00:12:51.320 --> 00:12:55.120 have slumps. I'm thinking the Yankees just happened to fall 297 00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:58.639 into a slump. Uh, And the Dodgers were on a roll. 298 00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:03.039 If you remember back in the twenty seventeen season when 299 00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:08.200 the Dodgers during that regular season, they were getting chunks 300 00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:12.000 of wins like eleven game winning streaks, fourteen game winning streaks, 301 00:13:12.320 --> 00:13:15.720 and then they hit the big slumps. And I remember 302 00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:19.600 back then, I'm like, okay, please don't be so don't 303 00:13:19.639 --> 00:13:22.840 be on the ball just before the playoffs, because nine 304 00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:25.080 times out of kim, you're going to fall into the slump. 305 00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:28.080 And in the playoffs these slumps are magnified because it's 306 00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:29.039 just the short series. 307 00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:30.600 The Dodgers are on a. 308 00:13:30.600 --> 00:13:32.720 Roll right after they beat the Padres. I think they 309 00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:36.320 were on a roll. They were great. Yankees were good, 310 00:13:36.360 --> 00:13:40.399 but I think they hit a slump. Now yesterday I 311 00:13:40.480 --> 00:13:42.399 was fearing okay and and I even called it, well, 312 00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:46.440 my wife, oh this this inning when they had who 313 00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:48.639 was the three big batters coming? When they got the 314 00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:51.919 grand slam bump, Bolty, something's going to happen. Sure enough, 315 00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:55.039 it seemed like to woke, come up, see coming out 316 00:13:55.039 --> 00:13:58.799 of the slump. But the Dodgers are still doing good there. 317 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:00.919 Eventually will get a slump some how if we keep going, 318 00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:03.679 you know, fourteen to fifteen games, but they have three 319 00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:04.519 games to win one. 320 00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:05.759 We're on a roll. 321 00:14:06.759 --> 00:14:09.159 We should take this. But now it's a series. Like 322 00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:13.159 you said, I didn't think they would sweep, but now 323 00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:15.320 it's a series. Even if it comes back on Friday 324 00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:19.320 the Dodger Stadium, I think the Dodgers still have the momentum. 325 00:14:19.440 --> 00:14:22.039 Yeah, that about it. Appreciated, PJ. Thanks for checking in. 326 00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:25.159 The momentum can go back and forth game to game. 327 00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:27.320 He can maybe go back and forth within a game. 328 00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:30.840 We certainly saw that last night. But with Jack Flaherty 329 00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:33.320 on the mountain tonight, and with the high leverage relievers 330 00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:38.639 from Bonda to Vesia to trying and to bruise dur Garaderole, 331 00:14:39.279 --> 00:14:41.879 you know, Michael Kopek, I mean those guys are ready. 332 00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:43.840 Those guys didn't get in the game last night. Yeah, 333 00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:46.159 they got an extra day's rest. They'll they'll empty the tank, 334 00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:48.960 so to speak, tonight, Saxy day off tomorrow, and if 335 00:14:49.000 --> 00:14:51.399 they need to play game six, hey, they'll have forty 336 00:14:51.440 --> 00:14:54.120 eight hours of rest in between Game five and Game 337 00:14:54.159 --> 00:14:56.240 six and they'll be right back out there ready to go. 338 00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:58.039 That's why they didn't use them last night. I got 339 00:14:58.039 --> 00:14:59.759 a couple tweets you're saying, why not use them? 340 00:14:59.799 --> 00:14:59.919 Lot? 341 00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:02.000 So you could use them again tonight, day off tomorrow 342 00:15:02.039 --> 00:15:04.879 if you need for game six. No, no, no, empty 343 00:15:04.919 --> 00:15:07.200 the tank tonight in game five and then give them 344 00:15:07.200 --> 00:15:08.159 a day's rest. 345 00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:11.000 Right, And again the word trust. I trust Dave Roberts. 346 00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:13.440 He does the right thing. He knows as good as 347 00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:16.399 anybody what these players are feeling at the moment the 348 00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:18.879 game starts. I trust the one hundred percent. So you 349 00:15:18.919 --> 00:15:21.480 got to go with that. And I don't agree with 350 00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:23.480 people that say it was a punt yesterday. No, not 351 00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:26.039 a punt. They intended to win that game, just like 352 00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:26.679 they do tonight. 353 00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:28.600 Let's go to Reggie in La. Reggie, thanks you for 354 00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:30.279 being patient, Thanks for joining us this morning as well. 355 00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:33.320 How you doing, hey, guys, You know I hope Major 356 00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:36.440 League Baseball steps in and really comes down and penalizing 357 00:15:36.480 --> 00:15:38.559 those two guys. And I want to let you know, 358 00:15:38.799 --> 00:15:42.360 Steve Sack with JABRONI means Debrony means in terms of 359 00:15:42.360 --> 00:15:45.200 professional rest and is the guy that does all the 360 00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:47.480 work to make the guy the other guy look good. 361 00:15:47.559 --> 00:15:48.320 That's all they do. 362 00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:50.519 They're there to make everyone else look good and not. 363 00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:53.480 Do anything else. Okay, a couple of things. I know 364 00:15:53.519 --> 00:15:57.120 I talked to you guys yesterday about Tommy Egnan about it, 365 00:15:57.320 --> 00:16:00.120 and I know Sax said he liked the versatility. But 366 00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:02.919 when we saw on one air he had I think 367 00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:05.320 that was the air had because he wasn't a full 368 00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:08.639 time short stuff, which any other full time shows. I 369 00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:11.639 don't think they make that mistake the other. The other 370 00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:14.639 last thing is when Bolby was was going in second 371 00:16:14.639 --> 00:16:16.879 and it looked like he got tagged out and then 372 00:16:16.879 --> 00:16:18.720 he jammed the ball out of his hand. I don't 373 00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:21.120 understand why he wasn't called out on that play. I 374 00:16:21.159 --> 00:16:22.080 want to hear his thoughts on that. 375 00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:28.159 Lastly, and lastly, the secks did you like the national anthem? 376 00:16:28.559 --> 00:16:28.720 Oh? 377 00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:32.360 Okay you Reggie, thank you Reggie. So first of all, 378 00:16:32.360 --> 00:16:34.639 I didn't see I didn't hear the national anthem. I 379 00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:37.480 turned it on right at five o eight because I 380 00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:40.960 don't want to talk about maybe my negative attitude about 381 00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:43.799 the anthem, but I don't want to be discon disenchanted 382 00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:46.000 with the way I might hear something, and I want 383 00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:48.120 to go into the game on a positive note. Okay, 384 00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:50.519 So what was an answer national anthem? 385 00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:50.720 Tim? 386 00:16:51.159 --> 00:16:53.440 I know something. Was it a chante that sang the 387 00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:56.240 national anthem? I think it was pretty good. I have 388 00:16:56.480 --> 00:16:58.440 seen highlights on social media. 389 00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:01.120 Yeah, I'm taking it was pretty good from what you take. Okay, 390 00:17:01.159 --> 00:17:03.720 So anyway, the ball again, we covered this in the 391 00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:05.519 last segment. You got to control the ball all the 392 00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:08.319 way through the tag, not just at the point of impact. 393 00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:10.279 He was out if he would have controlled the ball, 394 00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:14.599 But you can't expose the ball to the runner. If 395 00:17:14.599 --> 00:17:17.920 you do that, bad things happen, like we saw. So 396 00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:19.519 what I like to do is I like to tag 397 00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:22.359 the guy with my wrist and cup the ball, you know, 398 00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:25.279 towards my body, so you protect it and then get 399 00:17:25.359 --> 00:17:26.519 the heck out of there. You don't want to keep 400 00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:29.400 it on there unless it's a bang bang play, and 401 00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:31.759
