36
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.959
<v Speaker 1>bring out the chef in you. Looking more and more

37
00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:56.040
<v Speaker 1>at these two knucklehead fans in the right field corner

38
00:01:56.120 --> 00:01:59.840
<v Speaker 1>that interfered with Mookie Betts last night on a catch

39
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:06.239
<v Speaker 1>carry the fan in the home Yankees pinstripe jersey holding

40
00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:12.080
<v Speaker 1>mookie Best right wrist while the other fan is taking

41
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.120
<v Speaker 1>the ball out of Mooky's glove. On his left hand.

42
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:19.319
<v Speaker 1>Both of them got kicked out. The fan in the

43
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:24.319
<v Speaker 1>glasses in the home jersey grabbing and holding onto Mooky's

44
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:28.000
<v Speaker 1>right wrist. He should be prosecuted. I would have.

45
00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.639
<v Speaker 4>I would have grabbed he was grabbing his right wrist. Yeah,

46
00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:32.960
<v Speaker 4>I would have shed that and grabbed his shirt and

47
00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:36.639
<v Speaker 4>yanked him down on the field and exposed him. I mean,

48
00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:39.639
<v Speaker 4>he grabbed you. Let's let's find out. Let me grab you. Now,

49
00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:41.280
<v Speaker 4>you know I would have. I would have done that,

50
00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:44.319
<v Speaker 4>But that's me, and that's probably what I shouldn't have done.

51
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:46.560
<v Speaker 4>I would have regretted it later, you know. You know,

52
00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:49.840
<v Speaker 4>MOOKI handled it much better than I would have he did.

53
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:52.319
<v Speaker 4>I would have taken that. For one second, you're grabbing

54
00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:54.560
<v Speaker 4>the ball out of my hand and then you're grabbing

55
00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:57.639
<v Speaker 4>my hand right. No, you're not grabbing my hand, dude, No, nope, No,

56
00:02:57.639 --> 00:02:59.639
<v Speaker 4>you're getting You're You're gonna come down here with me

57
00:02:59.639 --> 00:03:01.000
<v Speaker 4>if you want to start grabbing people.

58
00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Mookie, come right down here. Handed it beautifully. They were

59
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:06.199
<v Speaker 1>kicked out of the game. But the more and more

60
00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:07.840
<v Speaker 1>I sit here and I tweeted out the picture for

61
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:10.360
<v Speaker 1>our show teas here on say, some scam and I

62
00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:12.960
<v Speaker 1>look at the the one fan grabbing the ball out

63
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:15.400
<v Speaker 1>of the glove while the other fan assisted him by

64
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:21.000
<v Speaker 1>holding the right wrist. I mean, we have no right

65
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:23.840
<v Speaker 1>to do that. No, you can't hold on and grab

66
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:24.800
<v Speaker 1>a man like that.

67
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:25.080
<v Speaker 5>No.

68
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:27.280
<v Speaker 4>You know what they said too. They interviewed did the

69
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:29.680
<v Speaker 4>chump and he said, yeah, we got kicked out of

70
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:32.280
<v Speaker 4>the game. He said, this is this is my area,

71
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:36.719
<v Speaker 4>and I patrol this part of the wall like you're

72
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:40.400
<v Speaker 4>some landowner whatever, okay, And he says, you were. We're out.

73
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:42.000
<v Speaker 4>We got kicked out. I knew it was gonna happen.

74
00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:43.719
<v Speaker 4>But they said we can come back tomorrow.

75
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:44.879
<v Speaker 1>Are you kidding me?

76
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:47.479
<v Speaker 4>No, they said the chumps are going to come back

77
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:50.280
<v Speaker 4>to Ma that we got to get somebody with the

78
00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:53.159
<v Speaker 4>camera on these fools and see if they're really in

79
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:53.599
<v Speaker 4>the game.

80
00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:57.039
<v Speaker 1>Well, I mean, I think I think somebody should visit

81
00:03:57.120 --> 00:03:59.120
<v Speaker 1>them tomorrow or tonight if they're back at game five

82
00:03:59.159 --> 00:04:00.680
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, you know, hello to them.

83
00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:04.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean, it's a nice little hello.

84
00:04:04.199 --> 00:04:07.360
<v Speaker 1>It's inexcusable for fan to do that, it really is.

85
00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:09.639
<v Speaker 1>It's one thing to grab for the ball, and you can.

86
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:12.280
<v Speaker 4>Say what you want within reason. You have a great

87
00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:14.719
<v Speaker 4>time yell at him and do all that. That's great, right,

88
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:15.280
<v Speaker 4>that's fine.

89
00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:17.319
<v Speaker 1>But if a ball is there along the fence and

90
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:19.279
<v Speaker 1>you want to grab and try to grab the ball

91
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:21.199
<v Speaker 1>get out of there. No, I mean, I'm okay if

92
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:23.079
<v Speaker 1>you're going to try to get it if it's into

93
00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:25.399
<v Speaker 1>the stands and once it's in his glove though, no,

94
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:27.600
<v Speaker 1>And once it's in the glove like that, and you're

95
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:29.120
<v Speaker 1>trying to grab it out of the glove, like, what

96
00:04:29.160 --> 00:04:29.839
<v Speaker 1>are you going to think?

97
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:32.839
<v Speaker 4>It was? It almost almost like a tag team because

98
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:36.079
<v Speaker 4>the one guy, the one guy's grabbing his hand, his

99
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:40.480
<v Speaker 4>right hand, and the other guy's got the glove prying open,

100
00:04:40.839 --> 00:04:44.560
<v Speaker 4>reaching in and grabbing the ball. After MOOKI clearly caught

101
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:48.120
<v Speaker 4>the ball, all right, and the guy's doing this. Yeah,

102
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:50.279
<v Speaker 4>I'm raving mad. Now I'm tipped off.

103
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:54.399
<v Speaker 1>It felt exactly like a WWE style move, like, oh,

104
00:04:54.480 --> 00:04:57.600
<v Speaker 1>the referees distract it over here. Meanwhile, Bobby the brain

105
00:04:57.680 --> 00:04:59.959
<v Speaker 1>Heenan's over here trying to get the ball out of Mookie.

106
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.839
<v Speaker 1>That's his glove while we're penning him down and nobody's

107
00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:05.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna see it. The fans are all upset, but the

108
00:05:05.199 --> 00:05:07.439
<v Speaker 1>referee doesn't see what's happening.

109
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:09.480
<v Speaker 4>Doesn't see it, and there's no tag. They just double

110
00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:12.240
<v Speaker 4>team on him, you know what I mean. So I look,

111
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:15.240
<v Speaker 4>Mookie's got the you know, the glove, He's got the

112
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:17.480
<v Speaker 4>ball in the glove. You got the chump reaching in

113
00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:19.800
<v Speaker 4>the glove. Then you got the other guy grabbing the hand.

114
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:22.240
<v Speaker 4>I would have just I would have just grabbed that

115
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:26.000
<v Speaker 4>guy's jersey and yanked him right down onto the field

116
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:28.959
<v Speaker 4>and say, well, you know he he wanted to grab,

117
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:32.480
<v Speaker 4>so let's grab you know, come on down here. That's

118
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:33.600
<v Speaker 4>what he should have done, SAXI.

119
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:35.040
<v Speaker 1>I like to believe if that was the case and

120
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:37.439
<v Speaker 1>I was there, I'd be over the railing and I'd

121
00:05:37.480 --> 00:05:39.920
<v Speaker 1>be high need it down to help you out. I

122
00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:42.439
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't have your back of a thousand not need any

123
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:44.399
<v Speaker 1>help with him, I promise, not at all.

124
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:45.399
<v Speaker 5>No.

125
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:48.199
<v Speaker 1>The more and more I think about this, it's ticking

126
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:48.560
<v Speaker 1>me off.

127
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:50.279
<v Speaker 4>It ticks me off too to think that they had

128
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:55.360
<v Speaker 4>the audacity, but the absolute gall to reach into the glove.

129
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:57.160
<v Speaker 4>Who do you think you are? I mean that the

130
00:05:57.279 --> 00:05:59.399
<v Speaker 4>man's trying to work. Mooki's doing his.

131
00:05:59.439 --> 00:06:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Job and the other brothers grabbing the.

132
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:02.800
<v Speaker 4>Ris are they are? They?

133
00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:02.920
<v Speaker 5>Bro?

134
00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:05.160
<v Speaker 4>They're not brothers. One's John Peter, and what's the other

135
00:06:05.160 --> 00:06:05.920
<v Speaker 4>guy's name, I don't know.

136
00:06:05.959 --> 00:06:08.279
<v Speaker 1>It's got some Italian last name. Yeah, it's always an

137
00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:11.000
<v Speaker 1>Italian dude, you know, you Italian sacks.

138
00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:14.040
<v Speaker 4>He darn it, I know. And they're they're I don't know.

139
00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:16.240
<v Speaker 4>This is not representative of the Italian nation.

140
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:18.519
<v Speaker 1>We love your piens on your pasta, but come on,

141
00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:20.399
<v Speaker 1>end up with the Shenanigans already.

142
00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:24.920
<v Speaker 4>Don't grab my man's hand. Okay, that's just not fair. Now, unreal.

143
00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:27.560
<v Speaker 1>I see this and I'm getting my blood is boiling. Okay.

144
00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:29.839
<v Speaker 4>I don't think most of the Yankee fans like what

145
00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:30.519
<v Speaker 4>he did either.

146
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:31.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I hope not.

147
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:33.360
<v Speaker 4>I don't think they liked it at all.

148
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:35.319
<v Speaker 1>I mean I did see a video the guy's being

149
00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:37.720
<v Speaker 1>escorted out, and some of the fans were like high

150
00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:39.480
<v Speaker 1>fiving them and excited about.

151
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:41.600
<v Speaker 4>It, which I why not counting to this. I think

152
00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:43.600
<v Speaker 4>most of the people are like, hey, dude, get out

153
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.199
<v Speaker 4>of the man's way. Okay, really, you're gonna reach in

154
00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:48.959
<v Speaker 4>and grab the ball out, Yeah, that's funny. Note it's

155
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.600
<v Speaker 4>not funny. It's not funny, and MOOKI could have been hurt.

156
00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:54.040
<v Speaker 1>One hundred percent. What if he grabbed he grabbed his wrist.

157
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:56.399
<v Speaker 1>What if he squeezes and poles and twist his wrist.

158
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:59.199
<v Speaker 4>What wasn't Mookie like off the ground, he was like

159
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:01.959
<v Speaker 4>reaching in off the ground making that catch, and the

160
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:05.040
<v Speaker 4>guy's grabbing What if he like broke his finger or something.

161
00:07:05.279 --> 00:07:05.560
<v Speaker 1>Percent?

162
00:07:05.639 --> 00:07:07.920
<v Speaker 4>You don't grab a player, Come on, really.

163
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:10.959
<v Speaker 1>Now here, here's the other side of this is I'm like,

164
00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:13.399
<v Speaker 1>where the teammates, where are the other Dodger of players

165
00:07:13.399 --> 00:07:14.800
<v Speaker 1>to go over there? You know, start hard.

166
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:17.040
<v Speaker 4>So it happened so fast. I don't even think they

167
00:07:17.079 --> 00:07:18.879
<v Speaker 4>realized it. I don't even think they realized it was

168
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:21.600
<v Speaker 4>happening until MOOKI kind of screamed at him, yeah, which

169
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:24.720
<v Speaker 4>which was good. But but uh, you know, if he

170
00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:27.439
<v Speaker 4>could have just grabbed that guys, I shouldn't say that.

171
00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:29.959
<v Speaker 4>That's terrible, but that's what I would have done. I mean,

172
00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:33.120
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you're grabbing my hand. Come on, now, this

173
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:35.240
<v Speaker 4>has taken me off. This is a fight. This is

174
00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:38.519
<v Speaker 4>a street fight now between the Dodgers and the Yankees.

175
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:40.720
<v Speaker 4>You want to start pulling on Mookie bets wrists, you

176
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:43.279
<v Speaker 4>want to start assaulting him down the right field line.

177
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:47.800
<v Speaker 4>We got ourselves a fight now between LA and New York. Yeah,

178
00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:50.879
<v Speaker 4>you can't be grabbing on anybody. And you know.

179
00:07:50.920 --> 00:07:52.720
<v Speaker 1>Nobody grabs Mookie's wrists like that.

180
00:07:52.800 --> 00:07:55.839
<v Speaker 4>Okay, oh no, we don't put up with that. No way,

181
00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:59.040
<v Speaker 4>no way. You don't grab our team, no chance. Now

182
00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:01.160
<v Speaker 4>I've done, Dave Roberts. That's the speech I'm giving.

183
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:05.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm postering this picture up everywhere, on the bulletin boards

184
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:08.279
<v Speaker 1>and the lockers. I'm putting it on the led screens

185
00:08:08.279 --> 00:08:10.279
<v Speaker 1>that they all have. Now that's what I'm doing. They're

186
00:08:10.319 --> 00:08:13.279
<v Speaker 1>watching replay after replay of Mookie being assaulted down the

187
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:15.360
<v Speaker 1>right field line. We're not gonna put up with that

188
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:18.160
<v Speaker 1>here at Yankee Stadium. That's right here. In the media,

189
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:20.399
<v Speaker 1>we can, you know, stir all this stuff up. But

190
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:23.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, in the clubhouse, they want to forget it. No,

191
00:08:23.560 --> 00:08:26.920
<v Speaker 1>don't forget it, get it. It's a rallying cry.

192
00:08:27.000 --> 00:08:29.079
<v Speaker 4>I don't think the Dodgers need that. They don't need

193
00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:31.680
<v Speaker 4>a rallying I mean, you and me love it, But

194
00:08:31.879 --> 00:08:34.480
<v Speaker 4>I think in the clubhouse, you know, you know what

195
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:37.799
<v Speaker 4>he's probably saying. I would venture to say that Mookie's

196
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:40.120
<v Speaker 4>having private conversations with his players and say man, I'd

197
00:08:40.159 --> 00:08:42.720
<v Speaker 4>like to jack that dude up. I'd like to just

198
00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:44.759
<v Speaker 4>give him a good short right hand and drop him.

199
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:48.519
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I bet you he's probably thinking that, but outwardly, Nope,

200
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:50.960
<v Speaker 4>it's okay, no problem. We're gonna move on and uh,

201
00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:52.159
<v Speaker 4>we're gonna win tonight. That's it.

202
00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:55.559
<v Speaker 1>No, I want Dave Roberts on a stool like William Wallis,

203
00:08:55.639 --> 00:08:59.399
<v Speaker 1>William Wallas and Braveheart saying they'll they'll never take of freedom.

204
00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:01.679
<v Speaker 4>What do you think Lesorda would have done on this case?

205
00:09:02.440 --> 00:09:05.240
<v Speaker 4>He thought what he would do, well, he probably would

206
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:08.320
<v Speaker 4>have been so ticked off in the clubhouse. He would

207
00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:11.279
<v Speaker 4>have probably been, you know, shouting every expletive you can

208
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:15.000
<v Speaker 4>possibly think, maybe even took his shirt off in front

209
00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:18.240
<v Speaker 4>of everybody, got on the stool and let the jelly

210
00:09:18.279 --> 00:09:24.320
<v Speaker 4>show begin. I'm serious, yelling, Cale, can you do that

211
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:26.840
<v Speaker 4>to our team? Look at Mookie's out there trying to

212
00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:28.559
<v Speaker 4>make a living, and you go out there and then

213
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:30.799
<v Speaker 4>hibit him and grab him and turn him and twist

214
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:36.000
<v Speaker 4>his arm. And meanwhile, the depasta's coming out from earlier.

215
00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:39.120
<v Speaker 4>You know, it's going everywhere. People are guarding their faces,

216
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:42.159
<v Speaker 4>the jelly's shaken from the body, That's what Tommy would

217
00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:44.919
<v Speaker 4>have done, and everybody would have been like, yes, yes, yes, yes,

218
00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:45.960
<v Speaker 4>they would have loved it.

219
00:09:46.279 --> 00:09:48.679
<v Speaker 1>We would have dug that they love it. I love it.

220
00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:51.600
<v Speaker 1>We need to get Tommy's spirit there to inside that

221
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:53.879
<v Speaker 1>Dodger's clubhouse to get these guys fired up.

222
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:55.840
<v Speaker 4>He used this stuff big time. I mean, you can

223
00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:57.279
<v Speaker 4>go back. We don't have to get into it, but

224
00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.799
<v Speaker 4>you know the instances where Tommy's used what somebody said

225
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:03.960
<v Speaker 4>or somebody did and he turned that into a tornado.

226
00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:07.879
<v Speaker 1>I love it. You need that. It's called motivation. And

227
00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:10.279
<v Speaker 1>you're one went away from a World Series. You need

228
00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:12.200
<v Speaker 1>a little motivation. You got hit in the mouth by

229
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:14.320
<v Speaker 1>the Yankees last night. How are you gonna fight back?

230
00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:16.519
<v Speaker 4>Then you get then you have to go down and

231
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:19.559
<v Speaker 4>to the low life and have somebody grabbing your teammate.

232
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:22.440
<v Speaker 4>Oh that would tick me off. I mean, don't grab

233
00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:22.879
<v Speaker 4>my buddy.

234
00:10:23.000 --> 00:10:24.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if Joe Kelly's with the team or not,

235
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:28.039
<v Speaker 1>but I know fighting Joe Kelly from the nine oh nine,

236
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:31.159
<v Speaker 1>I know, I know Joe Kelly would not have put

237
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:33.639
<v Speaker 1>up with that. Maybe he was there, maybe he didn't

238
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:36.039
<v Speaker 1>see it, But if Joe Kelly was there, I'd have

239
00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:38.200
<v Speaker 1>to believe Joe Kelly would be right there saying, come on.

240
00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:40.799
<v Speaker 4>You can't have the funniest thing when he when he

241
00:10:40.840 --> 00:10:47.600
<v Speaker 4>did that with his lip or towards absolutely brilliant. Joe Kelly,

242
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:49.840
<v Speaker 4>don't care. He's in the nine to nine. They don't

243
00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:52.120
<v Speaker 4>care out there, Joe Kelly, Wayne about you know a

244
00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:53.840
<v Speaker 4>buck seventy. He didn't care.

245
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:56.320
<v Speaker 1>I loved it, speaking of the nine on nine squat

246
00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:59.039
<v Speaker 1>to Ontario, John, you don't care. You guys don't care

247
00:10:59.039 --> 00:10:59.519
<v Speaker 1>out there.

248
00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:02.960
<v Speaker 5>Right, Yeah, the hell no, we don't care. We just

249
00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:03.440
<v Speaker 5>want to win.

250
00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely.

251
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:11.759
<v Speaker 3>Hey, hey guys, quick, two quick points. Today's body or

252
00:11:11.840 --> 00:11:14.799
<v Speaker 3>yesterday's body language didn't feel like the Dodgers. I mean,

253
00:11:14.879 --> 00:11:16.960
<v Speaker 3>even though we want to win, they wanted to win.

254
00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:19.320
<v Speaker 3>It felt like they had some good command as far

255
00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:22.360
<v Speaker 3>as a three zip lead. So I was like, it

256
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.879
<v Speaker 3>didn't feel like Dave Roberts put all his chips to

257
00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:28.360
<v Speaker 3>win that game. I mean, that's the honest truth. But today,

258
00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:31.679
<v Speaker 3>especially after what happened to Mookie, I just want to

259
00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:34.240
<v Speaker 3>we just want to win and just get it over with. Anyways,

260
00:11:34.279 --> 00:11:34.960
<v Speaker 3>your thoughts on that.

261
00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:36.840
<v Speaker 1>All right, John, appreciate it. Yeah, But we talked about

262
00:11:36.840 --> 00:11:39.600
<v Speaker 1>how it was a wait and see approach from Dave Roberts,

263
00:11:39.600 --> 00:11:41.879
<v Speaker 1>and he talked about that before the game. Wasn't a

264
00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:44.480
<v Speaker 1>secret the Dodger players knew that. They jumped out to

265
00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:46.679
<v Speaker 1>the early league. The game was close late, they had

266
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:48.919
<v Speaker 1>the lead late, he would, you know, go to the

267
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:52.080
<v Speaker 1>high leverage relievers, the dentical Kopex of the world, the

268
00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Blake Trinon's out there.

269
00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:53.759
<v Speaker 5>Sure.

270
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:58.360
<v Speaker 4>Look, Look, here's the thing about baseball and sports in general,

271
00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:01.759
<v Speaker 4>is you can make the right call. Dave Roberts made

272
00:12:01.799 --> 00:12:04.679
<v Speaker 4>the right call. I guarantee you he didn't punt that game.

273
00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:08.279
<v Speaker 4>There's no question that he expected to win that game

274
00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:11.320
<v Speaker 4>with those guys, and you know, you parse it out

275
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:14.200
<v Speaker 4>Land and Knack people want to, you know when they're

276
00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:16.559
<v Speaker 4>nick him a bit nick Knack Snack whatever they were

277
00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:19.000
<v Speaker 4>talking about last night too. Hey, look, he hitched great

278
00:12:19.480 --> 00:12:23.120
<v Speaker 4>four innings in one run, pretty darn good. Okay, so

279
00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:26.440
<v Speaker 4>he did not punt the game. Uh, but you can

280
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:30.039
<v Speaker 4>do everything, make the right calls, and you can still

281
00:12:30.039 --> 00:12:34.159
<v Speaker 4>lose because what's the bottom line, The players have to execute.

282
00:12:34.200 --> 00:12:36.919
<v Speaker 4>And if they don't execute, even though you make the

283
00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:39.720
<v Speaker 4>right calls, that was the right call. You can still lose,

284
00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:40.759
<v Speaker 4>and that's that's where we were.

285
00:12:40.919 --> 00:12:43.440
<v Speaker 1>Danny and Almonte is next up here on Saxon Kates

286
00:12:43.440 --> 00:12:47.559
<v Speaker 1>in the Am on a FI seventy LA Sports. Hi, Danny, Hi,

287
00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:49.159
<v Speaker 1>good morning, morning.

288
00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:49.559
<v Speaker 4>Good.

289
00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:50.600
<v Speaker 5>So.

290
00:12:51.159 --> 00:12:52.960
<v Speaker 6>I know we were starting to feeling a little down

291
00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:55.279
<v Speaker 6>to a little, you know, out of it after that loss.

292
00:12:55.320 --> 00:12:58.159
<v Speaker 6>But honestly, what do we all expect from a Yankees

293
00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:00.559
<v Speaker 6>Dodgers World series? I didn't expect to sleep and that's

294
00:13:00.559 --> 00:13:02.159
<v Speaker 6>definitely not what I want her to see. I want

295
00:13:02.200 --> 00:13:04.840
<v Speaker 6>her to see a Muhammad Ali versus George Foreman. I

296
00:13:04.879 --> 00:13:06.879
<v Speaker 6>wanted to feel slug it out. If we would have

297
00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:09.000
<v Speaker 6>taken this series on a four to oh, I don't

298
00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:11.080
<v Speaker 6>think anybody would have looked back at it like that, Wow,

299
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:13.679
<v Speaker 6>what a classic, you know, and this is exactly what

300
00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:16.000
<v Speaker 6>I expected. But now we need to rally when you

301
00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:17.919
<v Speaker 6>come back. How do the boys in Blue respond?

302
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:20.279
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely? Yeah, you know how they respond?

303
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:22.000
<v Speaker 4>They Danny, good, good, call Danny.

304
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:22.159
<v Speaker 6>Hey.

305
00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:24.120
<v Speaker 4>You know another thing is they may have they may

306
00:13:24.120 --> 00:13:26.080
<v Speaker 4>have said, you know, there wasn't that good of a series,

307
00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:27.960
<v Speaker 4>wasn't that good of a matchup? That Dodgers were just

308
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:30.120
<v Speaker 4>so much better than the Yankees. If we had a sweep.

309
00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:32.600
<v Speaker 4>You know, might have heard that. Now, now we gotta fight, right,

310
00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:35.480
<v Speaker 4>So it is what it is. But I think the

311
00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:38.600
<v Speaker 4>Yankees are they're a really good team. Yeah, you know,

312
00:13:38.759 --> 00:13:41.399
<v Speaker 4>really good team. So it's it's not gonna be you know,

313
00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:44.159
<v Speaker 4>he they weren't that good anyway. No, they're that good.

314
00:13:44.440 --> 00:13:46.240
<v Speaker 1>They're a very good team. And they got the bottom

315
00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:48.559
<v Speaker 1>of the lineup going last night with Anthony Vulpi and

316
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:51.879
<v Speaker 1>Austin Wells and Alex Rdugo. And the scary thing is

317
00:13:51.919 --> 00:13:53.799
<v Speaker 1>they got a couple of hits from Soto, Judge and

318
00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:56.759
<v Speaker 1>Stanton who went over four, but on base once. Uh,

319
00:13:56.840 --> 00:13:58.759
<v Speaker 1>you got to keep them down. You got a silence

320
00:13:58.759 --> 00:14:01.840
<v Speaker 1>in as long as possible as this series, hopefully, and

321
00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:05.000
<v Speaker 1>tonight in the Bronx, let's go out to Michael and

322
00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Buena Park has been waiting very patiently. Michael, good morning,

323
00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:07.879
<v Speaker 1>how are you?

324
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:09.519
<v Speaker 5>Thank you?

325
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:11.919
<v Speaker 7>Hey, guys. I don't think last night is any reason

326
00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:15.840
<v Speaker 7>for concern. The Yankees top six and the order were

327
00:14:15.919 --> 00:14:19.840
<v Speaker 7>four for twenty four. Dave Roberts seemed to kind of

328
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:23.320
<v Speaker 7>mail in the game, and no manager or coach could

329
00:14:23.320 --> 00:14:26.080
<v Speaker 7>ever say that. But he didn't throw all of his

330
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:30.759
<v Speaker 7>horses out there as far as the pitchers go. Understandably, Steve,

331
00:14:30.799 --> 00:14:32.919
<v Speaker 7>what do you think about Tommy Edmund being moved up

332
00:14:32.919 --> 00:14:36.320
<v Speaker 7>in the order. We understand that you want numbers eight

333
00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:39.200
<v Speaker 7>and nine, the number eight and nine hitters to get

334
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:41.840
<v Speaker 7>on base for the upper part of the order, but

335
00:14:42.120 --> 00:14:44.639
<v Speaker 7>given the postseason he's had, shouldn't he be batting fifth

336
00:14:44.759 --> 00:14:46.799
<v Speaker 7>or no lower than six?

337
00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:51.399
<v Speaker 4>All right, appreciate it, Michael, Thanks Michael good call. I

338
00:14:51.480 --> 00:14:55.519
<v Speaker 4>understand your sentiments, but I got to go with you

339
00:14:55.559 --> 00:14:58.600
<v Speaker 4>know what got us there? And you know the guys

340
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:01.360
<v Speaker 4>that have been smoking in the postseas and certainly he's

341
00:15:01.399 --> 00:15:05.080
<v Speaker 4>one of them. Then LCS MVP and I love it.

342
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:07.600
<v Speaker 4>So I'm gonna kind of keep it where Dave Roberts

343
00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:10.080
<v Speaker 4>has him right now, and uh, and just go with that.

344
00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:11.759
<v Speaker 1>I like him in the nine Spy. I know he

345
00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:13.919
<v Speaker 1>bat clean up in the in the NLCS and was.

346
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:16.879
<v Speaker 4>He's almost like another leadoff hitter. Absolutely, when you're hitt ninth,

347
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:19.080
<v Speaker 4>you got two leadoff hitters now. Absolutely, it looked what

348
00:15:19.080 --> 00:15:20.799
<v Speaker 4>he did last night. He was all for one at

349
00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:23.080
<v Speaker 4>the plate, but he got on base twice with walks.

350
00:15:23.320 --> 00:15:26.919
<v Speaker 4>So he's getting on in front of show. Hey, Otani,

351
00:15:27.279 --> 00:15:29.279
<v Speaker 4>who what do we talk about when he's got runners

352
00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:31.960
<v Speaker 4>in a scoring position, when guys are on base, he

353
00:15:32.159 --> 00:15:35.440
<v Speaker 4>during this postseason has delivered more times than he has it.

354
00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:37.279
<v Speaker 4>It's when he doesn't have anybody on base, when he's

355
00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:39.679
<v Speaker 4>starting to chase pitches and getting out of the strike zone.

356
00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:41.679
<v Speaker 4>And we didn't we mentioned it earlier. He was a

357
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:44.159
<v Speaker 4>guy who won for seven runners in scoring position, the

358
00:15:44.200 --> 00:15:47.200
<v Speaker 4>Dodgers of the team showy Otani, oh for one last night.

359
00:15:47.240 --> 00:15:49.440
<v Speaker 4>So Tommy Evan got on base. You know, if you

360
00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:51.519
<v Speaker 4>move them up and you drop kiy k and nine,

361
00:15:51.559 --> 00:15:54.919
<v Speaker 4>you flip flop him in the sixth to ninth spot. Okay, great,

362
00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:57.360
<v Speaker 4>But I like Edmond of that nine spot you hit

363
00:15:57.440 --> 00:16:00.279
<v Speaker 4>on the head. It's that's another leadoff hitter to turned

364
00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:01.919
<v Speaker 4>that lineup over. And I like the fact that he

365
00:16:01.960 --> 00:16:04.399
<v Speaker 4>gets on base no matter what. Yeah, and look, show hey,

366
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:06.399
<v Speaker 4>o Tani's the lead off hitter one time, you know,

367
00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:09.679
<v Speaker 4>starting the game after that, you know it's mixing. You know,

368
00:16:09.759 --> 00:16:12.559
<v Speaker 4>it's he's not gonna lead off every every inning. And

369
00:16:12.679 --> 00:16:14.519
<v Speaker 4>having Tommy I'd been at the bottom of the order

370
00:16:14.879 --> 00:16:18.080
<v Speaker 4>to set the stage for show Hey and Mookie and Freddy.

371
00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:20.120
<v Speaker 4>I like that you know, that's that's a good spot

372
00:16:20.159 --> 00:16:21.960
<v Speaker 4>to be, so I like him in that number nine

373
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:22.519
<v Speaker 4>position too.

374
00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:24.519
<v Speaker 1>Let's squeeze in one more call before the break. Coming

375
00:16:24.600 --> 00:16:26.159
<v Speaker 1>up at the back end of this hour, Jeff and

376
00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:28.600
<v Speaker 1>Nelson from Yes Network is gonna join us. Manny all

<v Speaker 1>the way out in Katie, Texas joins us from the

00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Long Long Star State. How you doing, Manny, Good morning, guys.

379
00:16:35.440 --> 00:16:37.559
<v Speaker 8>Honored to speak to you, guys, listening to you guys

380
00:16:37.600 --> 00:16:38.440
<v Speaker 8>on iHeartRadio.

381
00:16:38.600 --> 00:16:41.559
<v Speaker 4>Thanks Manny, Thanks, Manny's going Saxy.

382
00:16:41.679 --> 00:16:44.039
<v Speaker 8>I just want to say, it's an honor to talk

383
00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:48.039
<v Speaker 8>to you, man, And I want to remind everybody, I mean,

384
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:51.200
<v Speaker 8>with somebody. A lot of people don't remember this that

385
00:16:51.399 --> 00:16:54.480
<v Speaker 8>how magical eighty eight was. Besides Gibb's home run and

386
00:16:54.919 --> 00:17:00.000
<v Speaker 8>Oral's accomplishment, you hit that home run on that first

387
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:01.200
<v Speaker 8>pitch on opening day.

388
00:17:01.200 --> 00:17:02.399
<v Speaker 4>Man, you remember that?

389
00:17:03.320 --> 00:17:06.039
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, yeah, buddy, I remember that. Running to the TV

390
00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:07.880
<v Speaker 8>to watch the news because that's what it was. That's

391
00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:09.480
<v Speaker 8>the only way we were to watch clips of it.

392
00:17:09.519 --> 00:17:14.240
<v Speaker 8>And man, you were pumped running down the bases. But hey, guys,

393
00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:17.640
<v Speaker 8>last night, Hey, I expected it. You know when they

394
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:22.160
<v Speaker 8>said Kaspirius and and Nack was going to pitch. It's

395
00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:25.279
<v Speaker 8>exactly what I expected. Yankees just feed off of triple

396
00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:30.839
<v Speaker 8>A pitching. Tonight we got Jack Flarity, you know. And

397
00:17:31.000 --> 00:17:34.200
<v Speaker 8>I believe tayl is gonna wake up tonight. He's gonna

398
00:17:34.240 --> 00:17:37.680
<v Speaker 8>be clutched tonight. So I said, Yank, I had called

399
00:17:37.799 --> 00:17:40.799
<v Speaker 8>Dodgers in six, but hey, we could do it in five.

400
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:43.279
<v Speaker 8>Let's do it, baby, and let's celebrate safely.

401
00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:47.759
<v Speaker 1>All right, go Dodgers, guys, appreciate thanks for checking in. Yeah,

402
00:17:47.759 --> 00:17:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I got the big dog going tonight, Flarity.

403
00:17:49.680 --> 00:17:51.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and see that's kind of like the sentiment. You

404
00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:54.960
<v Speaker 4>get the kind of the narrative. Oh not not the

405
00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:58.000
<v Speaker 4>top quality landa NAC four innings, one one run, Okay,

406
00:17:58.119 --> 00:18:00.960
<v Speaker 4>he was one of the guy bright stars of the

407
00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:03.559
<v Speaker 4>pitching staff, if you can make it that way, A

408
00:18:03.880 --> 00:18:06.400
<v Speaker 4>little kernel of good things that were happening yesterday for

409
00:18:06.440 --> 00:18:10.319
<v Speaker 4>the Dodgers. So anyway, not a punt, not triple A. Uh,

410
00:18:10.359 --> 00:18:12.519
<v Speaker 4>it's just what it is. But tonight you turn the page.

411
00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:14.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't think you can tell that Dodgers lineup

412
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:16.559
<v Speaker 1>last night. We're punting this game. Just go out there,

413
00:18:16.599 --> 00:18:18.799
<v Speaker 1>go through the motions, guys, and you're thirty two combined

414
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:21.039
<v Speaker 1>bats go ahead and strike out eight times. We're good.

415
00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:23.279
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna We're gonna try to win this in five. No,

416
00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:27.039
<v Speaker 1>that's that's not the mentality. Eight sixty six, nine eighty

431
00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:12.079
<v Speaker 1>a Game five coming up from the Bronx after the

432
00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:15.519
<v Speaker 1>Yankees avoided elimination in his sweep with an eleven to

433
00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:17.839
<v Speaker 1>four win last night over the Dodgers. Dodgers on Deck

434
00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:20.119
<v Speaker 1>will get started at four pm, first pitch at five

435
00:19:20.160 --> 00:19:22.960
<v Speaker 1>oh eight from the Gallping Motors broadcast booth. I was

436
00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:25.039
<v Speaker 1>just watching our buddies at the MLB Network during the

437
00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:29.519
<v Speaker 1>commercial break here Staxy, Matt Vskersion and Sean Casey and

438
00:19:29.720 --> 00:19:33.160
<v Speaker 1>talking about this series. And Sean Casey brought a great point.

439
00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:36.480
<v Speaker 1>It's hard in baseball to sweep a team in a

440
00:19:36.519 --> 00:19:39.160
<v Speaker 1>three game series in the regular season. Now Here we

441
00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:41.559
<v Speaker 1>are in the postseason, it's a best of seven series.

442
00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:43.960
<v Speaker 1>And now you're asking a team to go and win

443
00:19:44.119 --> 00:19:47.440
<v Speaker 1>four straight games over a team that is arguably just

444
00:19:47.480 --> 00:19:50.039
<v Speaker 1>as hot as you, arguably just as good as you,

445
00:19:50.440 --> 00:19:52.519
<v Speaker 1>and here in the position to also try to win

446
00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:55.559
<v Speaker 1>a World Series championship. And you think you're just going

447
00:19:55.640 --> 00:19:58.119
<v Speaker 1>to go in there and roll through them in four games?

448
00:19:58.759 --> 00:20:00.799
<v Speaker 1>Did it not expect the Yankees to put up a fight?

449
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:02.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is a Yankees Team's got a lot

450
00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:04.200
<v Speaker 1>of pride. Certainly they don't want to get swept. When

451
00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:06.960
<v Speaker 1>he pointed out it's hard to win four games during

452
00:20:06.960 --> 00:20:08.839
<v Speaker 1>the regular season against the team in a row.

453
00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:13.359
<v Speaker 4>Almost almost never happens to get swept in four during

454
00:20:13.400 --> 00:20:17.400
<v Speaker 4>the regular season. Nonetheless, thinking about what happens in postseason

455
00:20:17.400 --> 00:20:20.279
<v Speaker 4>a World Series, it just almost never happens. Yeah, I

456
00:20:20.319 --> 00:20:23.559
<v Speaker 4>can tell you during eighty three when we were playing

457
00:20:23.559 --> 00:20:26.720
<v Speaker 4>the Phillies, we beat the Phillies. I think every game

458
00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:28.599
<v Speaker 4>that year, maybe we lost one, I don't think so.

459
00:20:28.680 --> 00:20:31.599
<v Speaker 4>I think we were twelve and oher against the Phillies.

460
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:34.440
<v Speaker 4>We come when we play them in the NLCS, they

461
00:20:34.519 --> 00:20:37.839
<v Speaker 4>swept us in four. That shows you how how you

462
00:20:37.880 --> 00:20:41.440
<v Speaker 4>know tentative this thing is. It's not just it's not

463
00:20:41.519 --> 00:20:45.319
<v Speaker 4>just you know, reason that comes to the forefront. It

464
00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:49.240
<v Speaker 4>can be some other thing. You know, certainly where you

465
00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:51.279
<v Speaker 4>are in the cycle, if you're hot, if you're not,

466
00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:54.359
<v Speaker 4>if somebody's injured, all these things matter and things can

467
00:20:54.440 --> 00:20:57.920
<v Speaker 4>change on a dime. But I just, you know, never

468
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:00.799
<v Speaker 4>would expect any team to come up and just slam

469
00:21:00.880 --> 00:21:03.480
<v Speaker 4>him down in the World Series four straight. Remember, these

470
00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:06.359
<v Speaker 4>are the two best teams in baseball, arguably in the

471
00:21:06.440 --> 00:21:08.240
<v Speaker 4>National American League. So there you have it.

472
00:21:08.319 --> 00:21:10.200
<v Speaker 1>We got a game five tonight. It's Garrett Cole and

473
00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Jack Faleri the pitching matchup. Jeff Nelson will join us

474
00:21:13.480 --> 00:21:15.880
<v Speaker 1>coming up in about fifteen minutes from the Yes Network

475
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:17.960
<v Speaker 1>in New York and a perspective from him. He was

476
00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:19.440
<v Speaker 1>at the game last night, so h'im hanging out with

477
00:21:19.480 --> 00:21:22.799
<v Speaker 1>Flavor Flave on the Fox broadcast. So we'll talk to

478
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:26.000
<v Speaker 1>him about Flavor Flavor and end this series as well

479
00:21:26.039 --> 00:21:28.759
<v Speaker 1>as the Yankees have forced a game five. Let's go

480
00:21:28.799 --> 00:21:31.480
<v Speaker 1>back down to the phones, Richard and Elson gund waiting

481
00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:35.759
<v Speaker 1>patissly on this Wednesday morning. Richard, how are you? Richard?

482
00:21:35.759 --> 00:21:36.119
<v Speaker 1>Go ahead?

483
00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:37.119
<v Speaker 5>Hey guys, sorry about that.

484
00:21:38.079 --> 00:21:38.599
<v Speaker 3>Doing pretty well.

485
00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:39.200
<v Speaker 5>Good morning.

486
00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:41.880
<v Speaker 9>A little bit of a hangover from last night's game,

487
00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:44.240
<v Speaker 9>but you know, honestly, I'm not.

488
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:45.079
<v Speaker 5>All that worried.

489
00:21:45.400 --> 00:21:47.240
<v Speaker 9>You know, the eighth inning was kind of a sluke.

490
00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:51.359
<v Speaker 9>You know, Volpi sold that foul tip, he struck out,

491
00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:54.160
<v Speaker 9>and then nine times out of ten Will Smith is

492
00:21:54.200 --> 00:21:57.319
<v Speaker 9>catching that ball behind behind home plate. That's two outs

493
00:21:57.359 --> 00:22:00.960
<v Speaker 9>right there. So it's kind of just, you know, things

494
00:22:01.000 --> 00:22:04.000
<v Speaker 9>happen in baseball at sports. And then to test on

495
00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:07.119
<v Speaker 9>the thing you guys were talking about regarding how they

496
00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:10.160
<v Speaker 9>were talking about not being a home run in Dodger Stadium,

497
00:22:10.319 --> 00:22:12.119
<v Speaker 9>I think that was more a knock on the Yankees

498
00:22:12.160 --> 00:22:15.240
<v Speaker 9>and their literal league. You know short porch, because you

499
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:17.720
<v Speaker 9>know all those home runs that those guys have. Look

500
00:22:17.759 --> 00:22:19.279
<v Speaker 9>at where they're hitting it. I mean, it would not

501
00:22:19.319 --> 00:22:22.640
<v Speaker 9>be a home run in like numerous stadiums around around

502
00:22:22.640 --> 00:22:25.079
<v Speaker 9>the league. So not too worried. Hopefully they're going to

503
00:22:25.119 --> 00:22:26.960
<v Speaker 9>bring it home tonight and we can meet them at

504
00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:27.799
<v Speaker 9>the airport when they.

505
00:22:27.759 --> 00:22:30.079
<v Speaker 5>Fly home tonight. Sounds good, Richard, have a good one

506
00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:30.920
<v Speaker 5>go Dodgers, all right.

507
00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:34.319
<v Speaker 1>Appreciate itrid The game of baseball could be so beautiful

508
00:22:34.400 --> 00:22:37.160
<v Speaker 1>yet so frustrating, and Richard just brought a great point.

509
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:39.400
<v Speaker 1>It's a six ' four game. Honeywell's on in the

510
00:22:39.400 --> 00:22:42.480
<v Speaker 1>bottom half of the eighth inning. Anthony Rizzo grounds out

511
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:46.039
<v Speaker 1>to Freddie Freeman. Honeywell goes over, covers the base one down.

512
00:22:46.519 --> 00:22:49.119
<v Speaker 1>Here comes Anthony Volpi hits the grand Slam earlier. Again,

513
00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:51.200
<v Speaker 1>it's a six to four game. Bottom of the eighth inning.

514
00:22:51.200 --> 00:22:53.079
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers still have one more at bats coming up. It's

515
00:22:53.079 --> 00:22:55.200
<v Speaker 1>only a two run deficit. Dodger's still in it right.

516
00:22:55.839 --> 00:23:00.519
<v Speaker 1>Wpy comes up to two pitch, fouls it off, and

517
00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:03.200
<v Speaker 1>it looked like he didn't foul it off. It was

518
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:06.200
<v Speaker 1>a strike that just whiffed and got past Will Smith.

519
00:23:06.240 --> 00:23:08.400
<v Speaker 1>It should have been strike three. Yeah, Instead they call

520
00:23:08.440 --> 00:23:10.480
<v Speaker 1>it a foul tip. It clearly wasn't. I don't think

521
00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:13.680
<v Speaker 1>you can challenge that in baseball. But the next pitch

522
00:23:13.960 --> 00:23:17.480
<v Speaker 1>he doubles, yeah, and then Wells walks, and then both

523
00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:20.519
<v Speaker 1>of them steals second and third, and then Alex Rdugo

524
00:23:20.599 --> 00:23:24.440
<v Speaker 1>comes up and hits a fielder's choice because Volpe's quick

525
00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:28.039
<v Speaker 1>off the secondary and scores even with the enfield up

526
00:23:28.279 --> 00:23:29.880
<v Speaker 1>to make it a seven to four game. And then

527
00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:32.039
<v Speaker 1>Taurus comes up and clears the bases with the three

528
00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:35.200
<v Speaker 1>run home run. It's a ten to four lead. It

529
00:23:35.319 --> 00:23:37.880
<v Speaker 1>ends up being a five run inning for the Yankees

530
00:23:37.920 --> 00:23:42.200
<v Speaker 1>in the eighth. Baseball can change so quick, and a

531
00:23:42.240 --> 00:23:44.960
<v Speaker 1>foul tip that wasn't and it should have been strike three.

532
00:23:45.160 --> 00:23:47.119
<v Speaker 1>Next thing, you know, the door opens and it's a

533
00:23:47.119 --> 00:23:48.279
<v Speaker 1>five run inning for the Yanks.

534
00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:51.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And how you can redeem yourself And just even

535
00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:54.400
<v Speaker 4>in the same game where Volpe had the base running

536
00:23:54.440 --> 00:23:56.200
<v Speaker 4>blunder on the ball that should have been a triple

537
00:23:56.759 --> 00:24:00.519
<v Speaker 4>to right center field, and then he comes in, has

538
00:24:00.559 --> 00:24:03.720
<v Speaker 4>another chance to score side on a fielder's choice, and

539
00:24:03.799 --> 00:24:06.119
<v Speaker 4>he does and turned out to be you know, he

540
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:08.799
<v Speaker 4>hits the Big Grand Slam. So you can really turn

541
00:24:08.839 --> 00:24:12.839
<v Speaker 4>things around in baseball very very quickly. And that's in

542
00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:15.880
<v Speaker 4>a big sense in the macro view of the whole thing.

543
00:24:16.079 --> 00:24:17.680
<v Speaker 4>That's what the Dodgers are going to try to do.

544
00:24:17.880 --> 00:24:19.960
<v Speaker 4>Put this one behind him last night, and I'm sure

545
00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:23.160
<v Speaker 4>they have. Listen, you gotta have anesia sometime when you're

546
00:24:23.200 --> 00:24:25.519
<v Speaker 4>a baseball player, and the Dodgers certainly know how to

547
00:24:25.559 --> 00:24:27.880
<v Speaker 4>do that. They're gonna come in tonight, fresh ready and

548
00:24:27.920 --> 00:24:31.920
<v Speaker 4>a great outlook on what's to be starting in Yankee

549
00:24:31.960 --> 00:24:34.519
<v Speaker 4>Stadium tonight. Win that one and then they can just

550
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:35.519
<v Speaker 4>go home for a parade.

551
00:24:35.720 --> 00:24:37.759
<v Speaker 1>Gus and Roland Hines is next up here on a

552
00:24:37.880 --> 00:24:40.240
<v Speaker 1>five to seventy. It was Saxon Kates in the Ams.

553
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:42.440
<v Speaker 1>The Dodgers now find themselves with a three to one

554
00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:45.200
<v Speaker 1>series lead after the Yankees win in Game four last night.

555
00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:46.000
<v Speaker 1>How you doing, Gus?

556
00:24:47.079 --> 00:24:47.319
<v Speaker 5>Hey?

557
00:24:47.359 --> 00:24:47.839
<v Speaker 2>Really good?

558
00:24:47.839 --> 00:24:48.160
<v Speaker 10>Boss?

559
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:48.400
<v Speaker 4>Hey?

560
00:24:48.559 --> 00:24:50.480
<v Speaker 10>You got to be fired up, man, keep that seats

561
00:24:50.480 --> 00:24:51.400
<v Speaker 10>coming ready to go.

562
00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:54.200
<v Speaker 1>I am fired up, but I think this Dodgers team

563
00:24:54.200 --> 00:24:57.160
<v Speaker 1>needs to be fired up. Mookie Betch was assaulted last

564
00:24:57.279 --> 00:24:59.680
<v Speaker 1>night in right field down the right field line, and

565
00:24:59.720 --> 00:25:01.880
<v Speaker 1>the just got hit in the mouth by the Yankees

566
00:25:01.880 --> 00:25:04.599
<v Speaker 1>in Game four, they scored eleven runs on them. Certainly

567
00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:06.240
<v Speaker 1>needed to come back tonight and they need to hit back.

568
00:25:06.279 --> 00:25:11.160
<v Speaker 10>Gus, Yes, they're yes there Ay, quick question about that play. Obviously,

569
00:25:11.319 --> 00:25:13.440
<v Speaker 10>grabbing his glove is a little over over the top,

570
00:25:13.559 --> 00:25:15.880
<v Speaker 10>no doubt about that. But you know, some people might

571
00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:18.119
<v Speaker 10>take a good home field advantage, you know, trying to

572
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:20.200
<v Speaker 10>knock the ball out or trying to stop him from

573
00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:20.720
<v Speaker 10>catching it.

574
00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:23.599
<v Speaker 4>What's your take, hey, Gus, he didn't try to knock

575
00:25:23.640 --> 00:25:26.079
<v Speaker 4>the ball out. He tried to dig it out. He

576
00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:28.319
<v Speaker 4>opened his glove up and was digging in his glove.

577
00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:31.039
<v Speaker 4>Get your hand out of my glove, would you? And

578
00:25:31.079 --> 00:25:35.000
<v Speaker 4>then your chump friend has got Mookie by the hand.

579
00:25:35.480 --> 00:25:37.319
<v Speaker 4>I mean he's trying to, you know, do whatever the

580
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:41.319
<v Speaker 4>Mookie's hand. That is not acceptable, not at all. So

581
00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:42.240
<v Speaker 4>there you go.

582
00:25:43.480 --> 00:25:47.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, definitely over the thought man. All right, Gus, appreciate it.

583
00:25:47.839 --> 00:25:49.079
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, man, you got got great takes.

584
00:25:49.079 --> 00:25:50.359
<v Speaker 3>I appreciate you guys, thanks.

585
00:25:50.119 --> 00:25:52.240
<v Speaker 1>For just watching the replay for the nine hundreds time

586
00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:52.960
<v Speaker 1>of Mookie bets.

587
00:25:53.039 --> 00:25:54.000
<v Speaker 4>Does he kick you off?

588
00:25:54.000 --> 00:25:56.680
<v Speaker 1>He leaped atousity, Yeah, he was in the air, he

589
00:25:56.759 --> 00:25:58.920
<v Speaker 1>leaped and as he's coming down the guy is still

590
00:25:58.960 --> 00:26:01.720
<v Speaker 1>holding on to his and then as Mookie kind of

591
00:26:01.720 --> 00:26:04.519
<v Speaker 1>bounces back up a second time because he's being held onto,

592
00:26:04.839 --> 00:26:07.400
<v Speaker 1>that's when the idiot grabs his right wrist and his

593
00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:09.240
<v Speaker 1>other buddy goes to work on trying to dig the

594
00:26:09.279 --> 00:26:12.000
<v Speaker 1>ball out. I mean, he could have pulled the shoulder,

595
00:26:12.039 --> 00:26:13.599
<v Speaker 1>he could have pulled the wrist, he could have built,

596
00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:17.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, broken a finger. I mean, this is unacceptable

597
00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:19.799
<v Speaker 1>for this to happen. A Yankee stave and just to

598
00:26:19.880 --> 00:26:22.119
<v Speaker 1>kick these guys out and we just move on, we

599
00:26:22.160 --> 00:26:24.400
<v Speaker 1>continue to play the game. This was the bottom of

600
00:26:24.440 --> 00:26:28.160
<v Speaker 1>the first inning in Game four of the World Series.

601
00:26:28.279 --> 00:26:30.119
<v Speaker 4>I mean, what if the hey man, what if the

602
00:26:30.119 --> 00:26:31.759
<v Speaker 4>guy had to blade on him? You know what I mean?

603
00:26:31.839 --> 00:26:33.839
<v Speaker 1>What happens to this? This is a Dodger stadium.

604
00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:35.880
<v Speaker 4>Could you know what I mean? You don't know?

605
00:26:36.319 --> 00:26:38.519
<v Speaker 1>I mean the first thought is, oh, Dodger fans they're

606
00:26:38.559 --> 00:26:40.960
<v Speaker 1>always roud. You look what they did against the Padres,

607
00:26:41.119 --> 00:26:43.519
<v Speaker 1>all the pavilions out of control of Dodgers. Look at

608
00:26:43.559 --> 00:26:45.759
<v Speaker 1>all the fights that happened up there and throwing trash

609
00:26:45.799 --> 00:26:47.799
<v Speaker 1>on the field. Yeah, we got Yankee fans in the

610
00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:51.759
<v Speaker 1>front row, grabbing and holding onto players. And not letting go.

611
00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:56.440
<v Speaker 4>That's that's crossing the freaking line. Okay, I can see

612
00:26:56.440 --> 00:26:58.160
<v Speaker 4>if the ball is going in, like you said, everybody

613
00:26:58.279 --> 00:27:00.640
<v Speaker 4>jumps up and you try to get it and jump

614
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:04.079
<v Speaker 4>all it falls on the ground. Okay, exact Mookie catches

615
00:27:04.440 --> 00:27:10.119
<v Speaker 4>the guy, grabs his glove, opens the glove, digs in, hunts.

616
00:27:09.839 --> 00:27:10.440
<v Speaker 1>For the ball.

617
00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:15.640
<v Speaker 4>Meanwhile, chump Arella next to him is grabbing Mooki's three

618
00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:20.039
<v Speaker 4>hundred and sixty five million dollar hand. Okay, I'm ticked off. Now,

619
00:27:20.680 --> 00:27:24.920
<v Speaker 4>I'm some way shedding that grab grabbing onto the jersey

620
00:27:24.960 --> 00:27:27.839
<v Speaker 4>as I fall down, bring that chump with me. He's

621
00:27:27.880 --> 00:27:31.160
<v Speaker 4>coming down. Yeah, and then I'll explain later. Yeah, you

622
00:27:31.160 --> 00:27:34.319
<v Speaker 4>know what the video tells everything. Mooki had every right

623
00:27:34.359 --> 00:27:38.799
<v Speaker 4>to protect himself, right, guys grabbing on protect yourself Mooki.

624
00:27:39.400 --> 00:27:42.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, lucky it wasn't more of a mess out there

625
00:27:42.680 --> 00:27:45.359
<v Speaker 1>and right field along the line after those Yankee fans,

626
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:49.880
<v Speaker 1>those Jabbroni's did to Mookie Bets down that right field line.

627
00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:53.119
<v Speaker 1>Unacceptable and major League Baseball, the Yankees, they need to

628
00:27:53.160 --> 00:27:55.839
<v Speaker 1>come down on these two knuckleheads. They need to be

629
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.440
<v Speaker 1>out in front of this. I haven't seen anything yet

630
00:27:58.440 --> 00:28:01.599
<v Speaker 1>except for these two guys got escorted by security and they.

631
00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:03.720
<v Speaker 4>And they, and they smugly said, as they're going out, well,

632
00:28:03.759 --> 00:28:05.400
<v Speaker 4>they just told us that we can come back tomorrow.

633
00:28:05.519 --> 00:28:07.680
<v Speaker 4>Not acceptable. No, they should not be able to be there.

634
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:11.160
<v Speaker 4>They should have a camera right there patrolling that area.

635
00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:13.039
<v Speaker 4>Make sure they're not there. Hey, I got some my

636
00:28:13.079 --> 00:28:16.359
<v Speaker 4>buddies back back east, and you know what they say,

637
00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:18.799
<v Speaker 4>just what we're saying right now. We're from out here.

638
00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:21.640
<v Speaker 4>We don't like that stuff. These guys are jerks. I mean,

639
00:28:21.720 --> 00:28:23.079
<v Speaker 4>my friends in New York are telling me this.

640
00:28:23.559 --> 00:28:27.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Bartman barely interfered with the ball in Chicago, barely,

641
00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:29.680
<v Speaker 1>and he is persona non grata in the Windy City

642
00:28:29.680 --> 00:28:32.720
<v Speaker 1>for life. Meanwhile, you got these two Jabbroni's out there

643
00:28:32.759 --> 00:28:34.680
<v Speaker 1>grab it on and hold it on to Mookie Bets's

644
00:28:34.680 --> 00:28:37.039
<v Speaker 1>wrists and assaulting him while they dig into his glove

645
00:28:37.119 --> 00:28:38.559
<v Speaker 1>for thirty dollars baseball.

646
00:28:38.640 --> 00:28:40.480
<v Speaker 4>I didn't see the phield, even the Philly fans. You

647
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:42.559
<v Speaker 4>do remember the how tough the Philly fans are. The

648
00:28:42.599 --> 00:28:45.119
<v Speaker 4>guys there and in Boston, they're really tough. Remember this,

649
00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:49.359
<v Speaker 4>Back in the late seventies, the Philly fans on not

650
00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:52.880
<v Speaker 4>the Philly fans. I'm sorry the Philadelphia Eagles fans on

651
00:28:53.000 --> 00:28:56.000
<v Speaker 4>Christmas Day. You know what I'm gonna say, right, throwing

652
00:28:56.200 --> 00:29:01.559
<v Speaker 4>hard packed snowballs at Sandy Claus. Who would throw hard

653
00:29:01.640 --> 00:29:05.400
<v Speaker 4>packed snowballs at Sandy Clause? Well, they did, they did.

654
00:29:05.759 --> 00:29:08.079
<v Speaker 4>That's horrible. I mean, but but you know what, you

655
00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:11.440
<v Speaker 4>don't see this kind of aggression. Nope, I mean grabbing

656
00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:14.279
<v Speaker 4>a player and yanking the ball out first, and then

657
00:29:14.480 --> 00:29:16.000
<v Speaker 4>who knows what he was trying to do? Why are

658
00:29:16.000 --> 00:29:17.000
<v Speaker 4>you grabbing Mookie's wrists?

659
00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:17.640
<v Speaker 1>Exactly?

660
00:29:17.680 --> 00:29:17.720
<v Speaker 5>What?

661
00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:18.000
<v Speaker 10>What?

662
00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:18.400
<v Speaker 11>What are you?

663
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:20.759
<v Speaker 4>What are you trying to do? I mean, you know,

664
00:29:21.119 --> 00:29:22.720
<v Speaker 4>do you have no right to touch Mookie?

665
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:23.000
<v Speaker 5>None?

666
00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:25.119
<v Speaker 4>I don't get it, man, none. This ticks me off,

667
00:29:25.400 --> 00:29:27.640
<v Speaker 4>really does, fires to bring back memories.

668
00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:30.119
<v Speaker 1>Fires me up. Let's go to Gerardo in downtown l A.

<v Speaker 5>because of the game.

673
00:29:39.680 --> 00:29:43.079
<v Speaker 11>I felt like Hudson sold sold man.

674
00:29:43.279 --> 00:29:44.440
<v Speaker 5>He fits horrible.

675
00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:48.200
<v Speaker 11>The rookies did, okay for for the fact, you know

676
00:29:48.279 --> 00:29:51.559
<v Speaker 11>Ben then Alanda Knack surprised me yesterday only on line

677
00:29:51.559 --> 00:29:56.359
<v Speaker 11>one run the spirits did well for his twinnings, but

678
00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:59.680
<v Speaker 11>uh yeah, that Mookie player. Man, it's like those guys

679
00:29:59.680 --> 00:30:02.880
<v Speaker 11>need to get ban from every baseball every baseball stadium

680
00:30:02.880 --> 00:30:05.160
<v Speaker 11>because that's not you can't do that. Man, You're gonna

00:30:05.319 --> 00:30:07.720
<v Speaker 11>get You're gonna hurt somebody, and.

682
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:08.240
<v Speaker 5>That's not right.

683
00:30:09.000 --> 00:30:11.319
<v Speaker 11>And yeah, and hopefully Dodgers win the wills.

684
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:13.039
<v Speaker 5>Iss today, man, let's bring today.

685
00:30:13.119 --> 00:30:15.559
<v Speaker 1>Let's get it done, Girardo, let's get it done. Today

686
00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:18.160
<v Speaker 1>is today. Dodgers need to show a little fight after

687
00:30:18.279 --> 00:30:21.039
<v Speaker 1>Mookie Betts got assaulted by two guys last night down

688
00:30:21.079 --> 00:30:24.319
<v Speaker 1>the right field line going for the baseball, grabbing onto

689
00:30:24.359 --> 00:30:27.920
<v Speaker 1>his wrists, digging into his glove. I mean, I I'm

690
00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:29.960
<v Speaker 1>getting I'm with you. I'm getting more and more upset

691
00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:31.000
<v Speaker 1>by watching this video.

692
00:30:31.200 --> 00:30:33.799
<v Speaker 4>How do officials just let this go? They just basically

693
00:30:33.880 --> 00:30:35.599
<v Speaker 4>let it go. Yeah, that's not acceptable.

694
00:30:35.680 --> 00:30:38.319
<v Speaker 1>No, no, And there the two idiots started arguing that

695
00:30:38.359 --> 00:30:40.599
<v Speaker 1>they were making a case of the ball. They're gesturing like, hey,

696
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:42.279
<v Speaker 1>he came over here, we're trying to get the ball

697
00:30:42.359 --> 00:30:42.920
<v Speaker 1>on the glove.

698
00:30:43.519 --> 00:30:46.160

704

<v Speaker 1>We'll get into your phone calls. David Vesse joins us

708

<v Speaker 1>Jeff Nelson from Yes Network as well, say FI seventy

709
00:31:30.440 --> 00:31:42.039
<v Speaker 1>l A Sports saxon Kates in the am here on

710
00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:45.279
<v Speaker 1>a five seventy LA Sports Live and Local are your

711
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:48.000
<v Speaker 1>home of the Dodgers as we lead you up to

712
00:31:48.119 --> 00:31:51.599
<v Speaker 1>Game five of this World Series. Dodgers a three to

713
00:31:51.759 --> 00:31:55.000
<v Speaker 1>one series lead, had a chance to sweep last night,

714
00:31:55.039 --> 00:31:57.960
<v Speaker 1>but you knew the Yankees working to go without a fight,

715
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:00.880
<v Speaker 1>and they put up one last night in the stands

716
00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:06.000
<v Speaker 1>and on the field, an eleven to four way over

717
00:32:06.079 --> 00:32:09.559
<v Speaker 1>the Dodgers. As the Dodgers went with a bullpen game

718
00:32:09.680 --> 00:32:12.079
<v Speaker 1>last night, Ben Kiss Sperry's got the start. Daniel Hudson

719
00:32:12.680 --> 00:32:14.799
<v Speaker 1>gets the loss, coming in in the third getting and

720
00:32:14.880 --> 00:32:18.680
<v Speaker 1>giving up a grand slam to Anthony Volpe as the

721
00:32:18.920 --> 00:32:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Yankees were up five to two. The Dodgers, to their credit,

722
00:32:22.000 --> 00:32:23.640
<v Speaker 1>made it a five to three, five to four game

723
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:27.480
<v Speaker 1>going to the sixth inning when Anthony uh well Well

724
00:32:27.559 --> 00:32:29.759
<v Speaker 1>Austin Wells comes in and hits a solo home run,

725
00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:31.559
<v Speaker 1>making it a two run game. And then they tack

726
00:32:31.640 --> 00:32:33.599
<v Speaker 1>on five more in the eighth inning to really blow

727
00:32:33.640 --> 00:32:36.160
<v Speaker 1>out the Dodgers with an eleven to four victory, and

728
00:32:36.240 --> 00:32:38.839
<v Speaker 1>we got Game five tonight. Great pitching matchup put the

729
00:32:38.880 --> 00:32:42.000
<v Speaker 1>bullpens aside. I expect to see both these guys go deep.

730
00:32:42.039 --> 00:32:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I think a great pitching matchup. Hits are going to

731
00:32:44.200 --> 00:32:45.599
<v Speaker 1>be their premium tonight. I think Saxy.

732
00:32:46.119 --> 00:32:48.319
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think so too. And you know, you compare

733
00:32:48.440 --> 00:32:51.440
<v Speaker 4>these two guys, and you know, Garrett Cole, lots of

734
00:32:52.119 --> 00:32:54.880
<v Speaker 4>you know, great stuff said about Garrett Cole. Rightfully, so

735
00:32:55.359 --> 00:32:58.440
<v Speaker 4>guy's a horse, he's a great pitcher. But if you

736
00:32:58.559 --> 00:33:01.519
<v Speaker 4>really kind of parse out these two guys, what does

737
00:33:01.559 --> 00:33:05.119
<v Speaker 4>he do great? Is what does Flarity do great? Flerity actually,

738
00:33:05.359 --> 00:33:09.000
<v Speaker 4>numbers wise had a little better year than Garrett Cole. Did.

739
00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:12.200
<v Speaker 4>Flarity was thirteen and seven, Cole was eight and five.

740
00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:16.000
<v Speaker 4>Era was a little better with Flarity than with Cole.

741
00:33:16.119 --> 00:33:19.000
<v Speaker 4>So you're getting quite the sample size. You're not just

742
00:33:19.079 --> 00:33:23.440
<v Speaker 4>getting a couple of games. And so when people think

743
00:33:23.480 --> 00:33:26.720
<v Speaker 4>that the Yankees have this gigantic advantage in the pitching

744
00:33:26.759 --> 00:33:30.440
<v Speaker 4>department tonight, not so fast. Not so fast. Flarity's right

745
00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:33.359
<v Speaker 4>there with them. You saw how Flarity's been pitching lately.

746
00:33:33.640 --> 00:33:35.759
<v Speaker 4>Besides the one game that he gave up, all the

747
00:33:36.079 --> 00:33:37.680
<v Speaker 4>everything else has been pretty darn good.

748
00:33:37.839 --> 00:33:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and he's pitched well for the Dodgers since coming

749
00:33:39.759 --> 00:33:42.079
<v Speaker 1>over from Detroit. Garrett Cole was banged up for a

750
00:33:42.319 --> 00:33:45.119
<v Speaker 1>good stretch of the season this year, back healthy, and

751
00:33:45.160 --> 00:33:47.240
<v Speaker 1>certainly we saw what he can do in Game one

752
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:51.200
<v Speaker 1>of this World Series last Friday night out of Dodger Stadium,

753

00:34:17.280 --> 00:34:17.719
<v Speaker 1>How you doing.

762
00:34:18.679 --> 00:34:21.599
<v Speaker 5>I'm doing great? And Tim, your partner was the first

763
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:24.920
<v Speaker 5>guy I've ever faced in the Major league Saxey when

764
00:34:24.960 --> 00:34:27.480
<v Speaker 5>I was my rookie season. He was with d White Socks.

765
00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:29.719
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and tell him, did you strike me out?

766
00:34:30.800 --> 00:34:32.559
<v Speaker 5>I don't know because it took me a little bit

767
00:34:32.639 --> 00:34:35.039
<v Speaker 5>to get my first strikeout, so no, I didn't.

768
00:34:34.800 --> 00:34:39.559
<v Speaker 4>Get Thank you, Nelly. How you doing, Buddy, I'm good? Thanks, good, good.

769
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:41.559
<v Speaker 4>Tim's gonna go first. Go ahead, Tim, and then I

770
00:34:41.639 --> 00:34:42.519
<v Speaker 4>want to talk to Nelly of it.

771
00:34:42.679 --> 00:34:45.320
<v Speaker 1>No, we saw you last night at the game, Jeff,

772
00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:47.920
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, we saw you with Flavor Flay first off,

773
00:34:48.280 --> 00:34:49.840
<v Speaker 1>hanging out with big Flavor Flame.

774
00:34:49.880 --> 00:34:53.719
<v Speaker 5>How was that? I went to Game one? And then

775
00:34:54.000 --> 00:34:57.199
<v Speaker 5>yesterday last night we did a watch party down by

776
00:34:57.239 --> 00:35:00.800
<v Speaker 5>the Trade centers out on the Plaza, and yeah, he was.

777
00:35:00.960 --> 00:35:03.079
<v Speaker 5>He's a really big Yankee fan. He lived a block

778
00:35:03.159 --> 00:35:07.440
<v Speaker 5>away from Old Yankee Stadium where he lived in the Bronx,

779
00:35:07.519 --> 00:35:09.039
<v Speaker 5>and he's a really he was a really nice guy.

780
00:35:09.079 --> 00:35:12.079
<v Speaker 5>He can definitely get the crowd going and when I'm

781
00:35:12.119 --> 00:35:14.440
<v Speaker 5>doing that picture. It was a stand up for cancer,

782
00:35:14.920 --> 00:35:18.159
<v Speaker 5>and he's I'm six six, he's probably what five five

783
00:35:18.320 --> 00:35:20.360
<v Speaker 5>five six, So I had to squat down or I

784
00:35:20.360 --> 00:35:23.280
<v Speaker 5>would have blocked everybody out. And they caught me on

785
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:25.840
<v Speaker 5>camera and I said, I said, my quads are burning.

786
00:35:25.960 --> 00:35:27.639
<v Speaker 5>I said, let's say and then all of a sudden

787
00:35:27.719 --> 00:35:28.320
<v Speaker 5>we went live.

788
00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:30.360
<v Speaker 4>Nelly, how you doing, Bud?

789
00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:32.800
<v Speaker 5>I'm good, Saxon, how are you good?

790
00:35:33.280 --> 00:35:35.800
<v Speaker 4>Nelly and I worked together? Was that an MLB network

791
00:35:35.880 --> 00:35:37.159
<v Speaker 4>or where were we working together?

792
00:35:37.239 --> 00:35:39.199
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, we're doing like that youth baseball stuff.

793
00:35:39.320 --> 00:35:41.280
<v Speaker 4>That's right. Nelly and I did some work together, and

794
00:35:41.440 --> 00:35:43.239
<v Speaker 4>he's so good at the mic. I'm so glad to

795
00:35:43.280 --> 00:35:46.320
<v Speaker 4>see you just killing it, Nelly, and you certainly deserve it.

796
00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:48.440
<v Speaker 4>But I wanted to ask you a little bit about

797
00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:52.599
<v Speaker 4>this game five. You have the two matchups between Flaherty

798
00:35:52.719 --> 00:35:54.880
<v Speaker 4>and and Garrett Cole. I mean, it's almost a flip

799
00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:56.559
<v Speaker 4>of the coin when you look at the numbers between

800
00:35:56.599 --> 00:35:59.920
<v Speaker 4>these two. But can you know some of our listeners

801
00:36:00.079 --> 00:36:03.079
<v Speaker 4>been calling in saying, can this momentum that the Dodgers

802
00:36:03.119 --> 00:36:06.079
<v Speaker 4>had flip and go over to the Yankees. I you know,

803
00:36:06.199 --> 00:36:09.159
<v Speaker 4>this is stuff that's very tenuous, and I don't know,

804
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:10.760
<v Speaker 4>what do you think? What do you think now? Do

805
00:36:10.800 --> 00:36:13.079
<v Speaker 4>you think this momentum can flip over to the other side?

806
00:36:13.920 --> 00:36:17.320
<v Speaker 5>Well, you look, you look at what the what the

807
00:36:17.400 --> 00:36:20.920
<v Speaker 5>Dodgers did in the NLCS against the Mets and the

808
00:36:21.239 --> 00:36:23.920
<v Speaker 5>couple games that they lost. You know, I think they

809
00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:26.000
<v Speaker 5>punted in a way that okay, you know, we're going

810
00:36:26.079 --> 00:36:28.400
<v Speaker 5>to save our main relievers and we're just going to

811
00:36:28.440 --> 00:36:30.679
<v Speaker 5>throw some of our low leverage guys and see how

812
00:36:30.760 --> 00:36:32.920
<v Speaker 5>that works out. And it looked like they did that,

813
00:36:33.400 --> 00:36:36.079
<v Speaker 5>especially after Volt they hit the Grand Slam. They did

814
00:36:36.280 --> 00:36:38.599
<v Speaker 5>get it back to one run, and then the Yankees

815
00:36:38.639 --> 00:36:40.840
<v Speaker 5>just started, you know, going a little bit further and

816
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:43.719
<v Speaker 5>extending it. And then all of a sudden, I Roberts

817
00:36:43.760 --> 00:36:46.800
<v Speaker 5>started using his low leverage guys. I don't know, I

818
00:36:46.840 --> 00:36:49.840
<v Speaker 5>think you know what they say, momentum is as good

819
00:36:49.880 --> 00:36:52.360
<v Speaker 5>as your next day start. I think the Yankees have

820
00:36:52.760 --> 00:36:54.639
<v Speaker 5>set up the way they wanted as far as Garrett

821
00:36:54.760 --> 00:36:57.400
<v Speaker 5>Cole going in Game five. I went in Game one

822
00:36:57.400 --> 00:36:59.639
<v Speaker 5>and he pitched great, but then you know, everybody was

823
00:36:59.639 --> 00:37:02.039
<v Speaker 5>all over Boone for taking him out after eighty eight pitches.

824
00:37:02.119 --> 00:37:03.800
<v Speaker 5>But then all of a sudden, you understand you hear

825
00:37:03.880 --> 00:37:06.480
<v Speaker 5>that he was exhausted, and he said he was he

826
00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:09.039
<v Speaker 5>was tapped out, so that might be a little bit alarming.

827
00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:11.800
<v Speaker 5>I know he's been banged up during the year. He

828
00:37:11.880 --> 00:37:14.840
<v Speaker 5>missed pretty much the whole first half cold did I

829
00:37:14.920 --> 00:37:16.760
<v Speaker 5>think you're right, Saxsy. I think it's a toss up.

830
00:37:16.800 --> 00:37:18.480
<v Speaker 5>But I was listening to you before I came on,

831
00:37:19.039 --> 00:37:22.199
<v Speaker 5>and you know, Celerity's pitched great, and all you have

832
00:37:22.320 --> 00:37:24.719
<v Speaker 5>to do is try to give him. Give the Dodgers

833
00:37:24.800 --> 00:37:27.199
<v Speaker 5>five innings and they're going right to their high leverage guys.

834
00:37:27.320 --> 00:37:28.679
<v Speaker 5>And that's what Roberts plan is.

835
00:37:29.079 --> 00:37:31.719
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Judge has been quiet the first three games of

836
00:37:31.800 --> 00:37:34.320
<v Speaker 1>this series. Last night he hits by a pitch, he

837
00:37:34.440 --> 00:37:36.800
<v Speaker 1>draws a walk, and then his last a bad hits

838
00:37:36.840 --> 00:37:39.320
<v Speaker 1>a base hit for the Yankees. You kind of hope,

839
00:37:39.320 --> 00:37:42.000
<v Speaker 1>if you're a Dodger fan, the bear hasn't been brodded

840
00:37:42.039 --> 00:37:45.519
<v Speaker 1>awake here because once he gets going, lookout is this

841
00:37:45.639 --> 00:37:47.199
<v Speaker 1>a thing where he can get going? And you've seen

842
00:37:47.280 --> 00:37:49.079
<v Speaker 1>him a lot this year. He's been up, he's been down,

843
00:37:49.119 --> 00:37:50.599
<v Speaker 1>and when he's hot, he's one of the best.

844
00:37:51.559 --> 00:37:53.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you kind of hope. So you know they'd been

845
00:37:53.880 --> 00:37:56.159
<v Speaker 5>waiting for that. And that's about the only thing that

846
00:37:56.239 --> 00:37:59.760
<v Speaker 5>I think maybe carry over to Game five is a

847
00:37:59.800 --> 00:38:02.320
<v Speaker 5>bet that finally woke up at the bottom of the lineup.

848
00:38:02.679 --> 00:38:05.400
<v Speaker 5>That's you've been wanting to see wake up. And did

849
00:38:05.519 --> 00:38:07.760
<v Speaker 5>I mean you had the seven, eight nine guys. I

850
00:38:07.840 --> 00:38:09.480
<v Speaker 5>think we got a couple of home runs came out

851
00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:11.719
<v Speaker 5>of that with Volpi and also Wells, and Wells had

852
00:38:11.760 --> 00:38:15.119
<v Speaker 5>a double himself, as you know, along with that home run.

853
00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:17.599
<v Speaker 5>You kind of hope, so, I mean, he did have

854
00:38:17.719 --> 00:38:20.519
<v Speaker 5>that RBI's first RBI World Series, so you kind of

855
00:38:20.599 --> 00:38:24.760
<v Speaker 5>hope it does carry over. Obviously, that's that's first at bat,

856
00:38:24.880 --> 00:38:27.400
<v Speaker 5>and again, you would love to see the Yankees get

857
00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:30.599
<v Speaker 5>ahead last night. They fell behind again in that first

858
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:33.559
<v Speaker 5>inning with Freeman, and if the Dodgers get out to

859
00:38:33.639 --> 00:38:37.199
<v Speaker 5>a big start or get get ahead early, it may

860
00:38:37.280 --> 00:38:40.039
<v Speaker 5>only go five. I think essay the bullpen game and

861
00:38:40.119 --> 00:38:43.119
<v Speaker 5>maybe the advantage is a little bit towards the Yankees, uh,

862
00:38:43.320 --> 00:38:46.599
<v Speaker 5>and then they just got got away from the Dodgers late.

863
00:38:46.760 --> 00:38:49.199
<v Speaker 5>But you kind of hope so because it's kind of

864
00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:51.800
<v Speaker 5>tough to see a guy as his stature. You have

865
00:38:51.880 --> 00:38:54.039
<v Speaker 5>two of the best players in the game, and you

866
00:38:54.159 --> 00:38:56.239
<v Speaker 5>kind of wish Otani was a little bit healthier too,

867
00:38:56.239 --> 00:38:58.760
<v Speaker 5>because he's just playing through that shoulder injury and you

868
00:38:58.840 --> 00:39:01.400
<v Speaker 5>can really, you can really hell two of the greatest

869
00:39:01.440 --> 00:39:04.400
<v Speaker 5>players in the game and they're struggling the way they are.

870
00:39:04.760 --> 00:39:07.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you know, Nelly, with your great experience that you've

871
00:39:07.440 --> 00:39:11.000
<v Speaker 4>had in the regular season and certainly in World Series play,

872
00:39:11.119 --> 00:39:14.039
<v Speaker 4>you look at the situations where with the Dodgers and

873
00:39:14.079 --> 00:39:16.400
<v Speaker 4>they got that spread out bottom of the orders usually

874
00:39:16.719 --> 00:39:19.760
<v Speaker 4>doing pretty good for them, with you know, Tommy Edmond

875
00:39:19.800 --> 00:39:22.639
<v Speaker 4>down there at the bottom almost acting as an additional

876
00:39:23.039 --> 00:39:26.199
<v Speaker 4>leadoff hitter for this team. If you had to say,

877
00:39:26.239 --> 00:39:28.400
<v Speaker 4>and you had to kind of go at the Dodgers

878
00:39:28.480 --> 00:39:30.480
<v Speaker 4>and say, what part of this team do I have

879
00:39:30.639 --> 00:39:32.480
<v Speaker 4>to the gate, what would it be? Would it be

880
00:39:32.599 --> 00:39:35.280
<v Speaker 4>those kind of supporting role players, or you know, do

881
00:39:35.360 --> 00:39:37.639
<v Speaker 4>you just kind of let Otani sit there at the

882
00:39:37.679 --> 00:39:39.599
<v Speaker 4>top of the order and just let him do what

883
00:39:39.679 --> 00:39:41.400
<v Speaker 4>he's doing, don't let him get off, kind of like

884
00:39:41.480 --> 00:39:43.079
<v Speaker 4>the situation we see with Aaron Judge.

885
00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:46.400
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you know, the Dodgers lineup is so deep that

886
00:39:46.559 --> 00:39:48.880
<v Speaker 5>he just mentioned with Edmund at the bottom, he is

887
00:39:48.960 --> 00:39:51.639
<v Speaker 5>like another leadoff guy. You kind of want to stay

888
00:39:51.679 --> 00:39:54.559
<v Speaker 5>away from Otani, and if you're a Yankee, you're kind

889
00:39:54.599 --> 00:39:57.119
<v Speaker 5>of fortunate enough that he is banged up a little

890
00:39:57.159 --> 00:40:00.119
<v Speaker 5>bit and probably not swinging at one hundred percent and

891
00:40:00.199 --> 00:40:02.639
<v Speaker 5>you're getting away with it. And you know, Mookie Best

892
00:40:02.719 --> 00:40:04.639
<v Speaker 5>has been Mookie Best, but still he doesn't have a

893
00:40:04.679 --> 00:40:07.079
<v Speaker 5>homer in the in the series, you want to pitch

894
00:40:07.159 --> 00:40:09.760
<v Speaker 5>around Freeman. I've been watching this guy ever since he

895
00:40:09.920 --> 00:40:12.920
<v Speaker 5>was with the with the Braves, and when he gets

896
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:15.559
<v Speaker 5>hot and then he gets healthy, forget about it. I mean,

897
00:40:15.639 --> 00:40:17.599
<v Speaker 5>he is one of the best players that I've seen,

898
00:40:18.000 --> 00:40:20.199
<v Speaker 5>and being in Atlanta, I always thought he was always

899
00:40:20.280 --> 00:40:23.719
<v Speaker 5>underrated and hidden being there. But everybody out in LA's

900
00:40:23.960 --> 00:40:26.039
<v Speaker 5>and see what kind of player he is. I think

901
00:40:26.079 --> 00:40:28.480
<v Speaker 5>that maybe the middle of the order, you know, but

902
00:40:28.960 --> 00:40:32.280
<v Speaker 5>it's really tough if you're trying to navigate through that

903
00:40:32.440 --> 00:40:35.000
<v Speaker 5>Dodger lineup. They're just so deep and you're just hoping

904
00:40:35.039 --> 00:40:38.239
<v Speaker 5>that you can eliminate the walks. I mean, the walks

905
00:40:38.280 --> 00:40:41.119
<v Speaker 5>have really haunted the Dodgers. Guy got to stay away

906
00:40:41.159 --> 00:40:43.519
<v Speaker 5>from that. But there's the same way with the Yankees.

907
00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:44.920
<v Speaker 5>You gotta you can't walk these guys.

908
00:40:45.280 --> 00:40:47.480
<v Speaker 1>Jeff is a guy who dominated out of the bullpen

909
00:40:47.559 --> 00:40:51.119
<v Speaker 1>winning four World Series championships. When you see the evolution

910
00:40:51.639 --> 00:40:53.760
<v Speaker 1>of the bullpen now, and especially a team like the

911
00:40:53.880 --> 00:40:56.400
<v Speaker 1>Dodgers day way they use it because of injuries, certainly

912
00:40:56.639 --> 00:40:59.199
<v Speaker 1>that is played the factor. But these bullpen games, they've

913
00:40:59.239 --> 00:41:01.199
<v Speaker 1>done it twice going into last night. Who worked in

914
00:41:01.239 --> 00:41:03.920
<v Speaker 1>the NLDS against the Padres, It worked in the close

915
00:41:03.960 --> 00:41:06.119
<v Speaker 1>out game against the New York Mets in the NLCS.

916
00:41:06.519 --> 00:41:09.559
<v Speaker 1>It didn't necessarily play out to script last night how

917
00:41:09.559 --> 00:41:12.039
<v Speaker 1>they wanted it. But as as one of the best

918
00:41:12.079 --> 00:41:14.920
<v Speaker 1>relievers out there, Jeff, when you watch these bullpen games,

919
00:41:15.239 --> 00:41:17.239
<v Speaker 1>do you just shake your head at the evolution of

920
00:41:17.280 --> 00:41:18.719
<v Speaker 1>bullpens and the way things are now?

921
00:41:19.519 --> 00:41:21.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I know, I don't understand how you can't you

922
00:41:22.039 --> 00:41:24.159
<v Speaker 5>can't develop starting pitching. I know the Dodgers have been

923
00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:27.280
<v Speaker 5>banged up and some of their main starters Glass Now

924
00:41:27.360 --> 00:41:29.679
<v Speaker 5>and Stone there, they're injured and they're not going to

925
00:41:29.679 --> 00:41:31.519
<v Speaker 5>be They weren't in the series. They weren't you know,

926
00:41:31.800 --> 00:41:34.400
<v Speaker 5>eligible to play, so that that really hurt them and

927
00:41:34.519 --> 00:41:36.960
<v Speaker 5>they had no choice but to go with the bullpen days.

928
00:41:37.239 --> 00:41:39.039
<v Speaker 5>You know, it's really tough to see. You would think

929
00:41:39.119 --> 00:41:43.400
<v Speaker 5>that that team organizations could develop more pitching. You know,

930
00:41:43.480 --> 00:41:45.559
<v Speaker 5>you always hear about, oh, you know, one more time

931
00:41:45.599 --> 00:41:49.800
<v Speaker 5>you use relievers, the easier that it becomes because they're

932
00:41:49.880 --> 00:41:53.519
<v Speaker 5>throwing the same thing. And it's true nowadates with analytics

933
00:41:53.599 --> 00:41:55.800
<v Speaker 5>because these guys are taught only one way to get

934
00:41:55.840 --> 00:41:58.280
<v Speaker 5>guys down. And when you're facing the same hitter three

935
00:41:58.400 --> 00:42:01.559
<v Speaker 5>or four times in a row, and there's no feel

936
00:42:01.639 --> 00:42:03.960
<v Speaker 5>for the game with these guys because they're so set

937
00:42:04.199 --> 00:42:06.800
<v Speaker 5>on analytics and so set. Okay, this is why I

938
00:42:06.880 --> 00:42:09.360
<v Speaker 5>have to get them out with a slider. Well, more

939
00:42:09.400 --> 00:42:12.320
<v Speaker 5>times you throw, you might not have that great slider.

940
00:42:12.599 --> 00:42:14.480
<v Speaker 5>You know, we didn't have analytics, so we had to

941
00:42:14.519 --> 00:42:16.599
<v Speaker 5>go by feel. We had to Hey, the hitter made

942
00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:19.159
<v Speaker 5>us adjust or am I going to throw my slider

943
00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:21.679
<v Speaker 5>if he's on it, then I got to do something different.

944
00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:23.920
<v Speaker 5>These guys don't do that. That's why you hear so

945
00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:25.719
<v Speaker 5>many times that, oh, you know, the more times you

946
00:42:25.760 --> 00:42:28.400
<v Speaker 5>see a reliever, the easier it is for them or

947
00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:31.440
<v Speaker 5>the hitter. Maybe it has their advantage only because analytics

948
00:42:31.519 --> 00:42:34.920
<v Speaker 5>has just made these guys into a robot. But it's

949
00:42:34.960 --> 00:42:37.559
<v Speaker 5>a little disturbing to see to see bullpen dates, but

950
00:42:37.639 --> 00:42:39.159
<v Speaker 5>it's worked for the Dodgers for a couple of times.

951
00:42:39.239 --> 00:42:40.039
<v Speaker 5>It's not last night.

952
00:42:40.400 --> 00:42:42.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Jeff, I agree with you first of all on

953
00:42:42.440 --> 00:42:46.000
<v Speaker 4>the analytics analogy, totally right on with that. But you

954
00:42:46.039 --> 00:42:49.719
<v Speaker 4>know there's some talk, Jeff, out there now of the

955
00:42:49.840 --> 00:42:54.239
<v Speaker 4>Yankees trying to maybe create this narrative that maybe it's

956
00:42:54.480 --> 00:42:57.480
<v Speaker 4>somebody like you know, Anthony Volpe who's going to step

957
00:42:57.599 --> 00:43:00.760
<v Speaker 4>up now to create a narrative that Hey, the guy

958
00:43:00.880 --> 00:43:03.280
<v Speaker 4>from the Bronx that grew up loving the Yankees and

959
00:43:03.559 --> 00:43:05.719
<v Speaker 4>his family's there. He seehim on National TV when he

960
00:43:05.840 --> 00:43:08.039
<v Speaker 4>was nine years old and how he loved the Yankees

961
00:43:08.119 --> 00:43:10.480
<v Speaker 4>comes up with a big Grand Slam after having a

962
00:43:10.599 --> 00:43:13.800
<v Speaker 4>base running blunder, and he's really redeeming himself. And can

963
00:43:13.880 --> 00:43:16.280
<v Speaker 4>this be something where the Yankees can hang their hat

964
00:43:16.320 --> 00:43:18.760
<v Speaker 4>on a little bit like kind of like the Dodgers

965
00:43:18.800 --> 00:43:20.880
<v Speaker 4>had done with Tommy Edmond and the NLCS.

966
00:43:21.880 --> 00:43:23.960
<v Speaker 5>Well, I think they're trying to do anything right, I mean,

967
00:43:24.000 --> 00:43:26.639
<v Speaker 5>and trying to get any kind of positive after being

968
00:43:26.719 --> 00:43:30.480
<v Speaker 5>down three to zero, and everybody knows that you're fighting

969
00:43:30.920 --> 00:43:35.239
<v Speaker 5>against the odds because this is the first, what the

970
00:43:35.320 --> 00:43:38.840
<v Speaker 5>fourth time it's actually gone to a fourth game after

971
00:43:38.920 --> 00:43:41.119
<v Speaker 5>its team has been down three to zero, and no

972
00:43:41.239 --> 00:43:43.800
<v Speaker 5>team has gone to a sixth game. So the Yankees

973
00:43:43.880 --> 00:43:46.159
<v Speaker 5>know exactly what kind of odds they're they're going up against,

974
00:43:46.199 --> 00:43:48.599
<v Speaker 5>and they're just trying to put together anything positive that

975
00:43:48.679 --> 00:43:51.119
<v Speaker 5>they can carry into the next game. And if it's

976
00:43:51.159 --> 00:43:54.280
<v Speaker 5>Anthony Volpi, he had a hanging slider and he crushed it.

977
00:43:54.920 --> 00:43:56.440
<v Speaker 5>He would put it on a tee and he had

978
00:43:56.480 --> 00:43:58.519
<v Speaker 5>a grand slam. I mean it looked like that. The

979
00:43:58.639 --> 00:44:01.679
<v Speaker 5>Dodgers want to get out of that with no runs

980
00:44:01.719 --> 00:44:05.159
<v Speaker 5>with only one out, and Rigell popped up in the

981
00:44:05.239 --> 00:44:08.000
<v Speaker 5>innfield and then Bolti came through. So you're looking for

982
00:44:08.159 --> 00:44:11.199
<v Speaker 5>anything if Aaron Judge is not doing it, you know,

983
00:44:11.280 --> 00:44:13.320
<v Speaker 5>you look at Chisholm. He's gotten a couple of hits

984
00:44:13.360 --> 00:44:16.840
<v Speaker 5>and stolen some bases, you know, even standing all of

985
00:44:16.840 --> 00:44:18.880
<v Speaker 5>a sudden, it's now cooled off over the last couple

986
00:44:18.880 --> 00:44:21.000
<v Speaker 5>of games ever since he's gotten back into the Bronx.

987
00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:23.840
<v Speaker 5>So you're just looking for something to hang your hat

988
00:44:23.920 --> 00:44:26.039
<v Speaker 5>on it and you get some kind of positive feeling

989
00:44:26.119 --> 00:44:27.039
<v Speaker 5>going into game five.

990
00:44:27.400 --> 00:44:30.039
<v Speaker 1>We'll see what happens in game five tonight. Garrett Cole

991
00:44:30.119 --> 00:44:31.920
<v Speaker 1>and Jack Flaherty first pitch right here at an five

992
00:44:31.960 --> 00:44:35.239
<v Speaker 1>seventy at five oh eight from the Galpamotors broadcast. But Jeff,
