Yeah, I'm hype about it. Yeah, you know, there's some, a guy named Adam wrote this article about the digital dark ages. It popped up on my phone, dude, and I started reading about the digital dark ages. And now I'm just like, I'm kind of depressed. Yeah. Like nothing is going to be saved, even though you think now everything. things on the internet. It's going to be there forever. In fact, it's not. In fact, we're erasing everything and what matters anymore? I don't really know. I only have really one question

for you about the game tonight. Then we can just end this episode. How, who was the temperature? In New York, in our recording studio in New York, in the stadium, in the Bronx. It's chilly. Like what? I think we're right around like 50, like 5.0. Like, like hand. And warmers wearing it on your baseball uniform. Depending where you grew up, yes. Isn't Rokio from Hawaii? No, that's Cantillo. That's Cantillo.

He's from Hawaii. He's from Venezuela, I think. Yeah, hey, man, they don't get a lot of 50 and breezy in some countries. I don't know. That was interesting to me. That was like the first time I was like, what's going on out there? guys, what are we doing here? The whole quarterback handover thing?

Yeah, it's an interesting combo because baseball's very much not like an embrace the cold. Like it's not go out there sleeveless, like the O lineman and stuff like. It's kind of like, hey, put on, you know, put on that mask that goes on like all the way so your only eyes at one point. Like certain guys, that's like a new thing. When they started wearing the ninja mask, I was like, okay, what's going on here? I never did that. I didn't like the breathing into it type thing.

It used to be like, I learned this from the Latin guys, baby oil before the game. Under the sleeves creates like a little barrier. That's interesting. Look, I didn't like the cold. I grew up in Southern California. I wasn't about that life. I just, I didn't think it was that cold there, but end of the show. End of the show.

Growing up in the beautiful Northeast, it felt like every fall or spring sporting game I played in was 55 degrees with right light. rain, so I'd like to think I'd be okay for that. I just wasn't as good at the baseball part. Neither is anyone from the Northeast. Ooh, shots fired. Big Cali up. And a big simulation up. But we do have to talk a lot about the New York Yankees who are 2 and 0 in the ALCS.

Some could say their best playoff positioning since 2009. I mean, they're going to the world. series, Jake. Oh, Treff. It sure seems like it pop. What are you talking about, dude? Matthew Boyd. They did, though, the bases against Garrett Cole a few different times.

Tanner Bybee. I don't know. Tell us about the game. Hey, let's do the game. We'll dive into this and we'll do a couple of big picture stuff because our Yankee fans feeling good, not feeling bad. Cleveland's number one starter, Danny Tanner, Bobby. pitching in front of a full house in the Bronx against the Yanks and their ace,

Garrett Cole would try to put Cleveland in a two-o hole. Aaron Judge on the back of milk cartons, but here in the first, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Brian Rokio, dropped that ball. One-nothing Yanks on the error. Bottom two, teach me out of doogie. Can you teach me how to doogie? RBI double for Verdugo. Hey, has anyone seen Aaron Judge? Intentional walk to Juan Soto to face Judge? The sack fly is properly rated here as the captain just seems to click off. Three nothing Yanks.

An ugly fifth for Cole as he gets pulled. 4.2 to Ernie's four walks and six hits. He gets bailed out by Holmes Hill and Canley in the six. How about a little fortitude by Anthony Rizzo as he makes it fortitude with his double. And then, oh, captain, my captain, they're standing on tables as the big fella goes yard. Weave gives the not underrated Jose Ramirez a homer. Who cares? Yanks take game two six three final. I like when you sing. I don't like that. That's my favorite part. Anytime, pal. Can I tell you something. I wrote twice on my Oh, I love your notes. I got a picture of the notes today.

Oh, BPH. There was two of them. Yeah. Rokio did it and jazz did it. And I was like, you know what? I love that. I'm trying to put people on the bounce pass since like 2008. And here we are on the big stage.

Where do you want to start? And they did it to, well, you know, Juncarlo doesn't exactly fly down the line. And Naylor is on that Storelli fitness. routine these days. And it was smart baseball, both of those plays. Let's start with the starters, because I think, and I think let's start with Bybee, because this was, Tanner Bybee put together a very strong season this year,

like a three-war season, 31 starts, mid-3s, ZRA, whatever. And Cleveland, they are looking for length wherever they can find it. In there, Cleveland. And Bybee was kind, especially, the seven game set. It was kind of like, all right, him. Matthew Boyd, his first start against Detroit, was a solid playoff start.

Bybee comes out, and in the first, Glaver and Soto, man, a little teaser for the talking baseball off season, Glaver Torres is going to have a wild free agency because his defense is pretty tough at a tough spot to be bad at defense.

But he is now leading the Yankees in the lead-off spot after having an awful first half of the season. Him and Soto are getting on base both at an over 800 clip in the first inning. Ironically, the problem has been Aaron Judge. Yes. In Austin Wells. So, Bibi kind of gets in and out of trouble except the drop by Rokio, which, Trev, it's windy, it's cold, it's whatever.

You can't do that after. losing game one and you guys are the underdogs in the series like that's that can't happen man that that's the underlying theme i think we'll see we've seen so far in the series it was kind of like the theme coming into the series that um i mean this ball does go a mile in the air sure no doubt look how much he's just drifting drifting and that's not he's getting to the spot but that ball is moving on him doesn't matter doesn't matter you got you got it side no good ron garden Ron Gardenhier's not pulling you to the side and say, oh, you were drifting. Don't worry about it, pal.

Not sure I ever missed the pop-up. We're being honest. I can catch a pop-up. Love that. We'll get our research team on it. I shouldn't have. Incoming tweet by Kyle. The throw is one problem.

Yeah, I actually thought Bivey did a great job limiting the damage in that inning. Torres has a great about, obviously. He's been great. You just mentioned him and Soto. So after that, Bobby Kay's Wells. And then Brandon with a great catch down the right field. That wasn't. Yeah.

It's a good position of kind of who the guardians are. He went down. That's not an easy right field to play. There's zero foul territory at that point. You have to get down into a slide to stop yourself and your momentum from going into the wall. He did great. And then Chisholm, you know, 3-2-K. So, you know, one-nothing.

Okay. that's no big deal. And then because of, you know, I think vote and the guardians are feeling the pressure, you know, bottom second he gets into a little bit of trouble. Normal season game, he's still working through all this stuff. But instead, it's Volpe a nice two strike about up the middle. Rizzo base hit, which has been, Rizzo's been awesome. Yeah, looks great.

Holy snaky. Volpey aggressive first to third there, then Vurdivore. do go nice, knock down the line, and then it is. Gets Torres to fly out, and then it's the intentional walk, and everyone's like, holy shoot. But again, I kind of understand it. I'd rather face Judge than Soto right now. And Judge, you know, Kate Smith comes in, gets the two strikes, sack, fly, does his job, but again, just seems like a little bit off.

but by that time it's already three nothing and it's like man this seems like it's going to be really tough to come back although the guardians end up putting some pressure on Garrett Cole I mean they really did I think you know even the next inning two guys on so it's Rokio and Kwan get on and Jram

two runners on two outs fly out to center field like he's had a couple of these moments like late in the game game one this one where he's been in these situations to put his team or get his team right back in the game and he really hasn't come through. And then again, in the fourth and the fifth, they had bases loaded and, you know,

end up getting two in the fifth, but it just, the big swings weren't there for them. I think that's kind of, when we talk about the themes of this series, who the guardians are, they have to play really good defense. They have to do their best to slow this Yankees' offense down, and then what they've done,

done all year as timely hitting. That's just who they've been. It's been a bunch of different guys on their team. They really haven't gotten that done in the first two games in this series. Yeah, Cole. They had an all lefty or switch lineup except Lane Thomas, which I'm not going to use as an excuse for Garrett Cole. Like you're still Garrett Cole.

Like I, you know, and this isn't to be rude, but, you know, Bo Nailer, Will Brennan, like, Rochio's actually have an incredible postseason. you're supposed to be Garrett Cole. Like you, you got to go out and get it done. They do knock him out of the game, 4.1, hits, walks, all of it. And yeah, with the Guardian's aggressive moves, I hope this doesn't come off as Big Brother, like, hey, good moves. But I think they attacked this game.

Like, this was for the Guardians, if you think the Guardians are going to win this series, go to Graf Kings and place a nice bet. because you could make a nice chunk of change because the world thinks the Yankees are going to the World Series. That vote played this game aggressively. He brings out Cade Smith early. He pinch hits David Fry.

In a big moment, he pinch hits for Naylor, which that means you're doing, that's a double burn because now you're going to bring in hedges to catch. Fry goes first pitch fastball hunting, which... First pitch, yeah. I mean, it got a decent pitch to hit, but... Dangerous pitch by Cole. Like, you know he's looking for that.

that one, that Cole, I mean, if there's a guy that believes in his fastball, it's Garrett Cole. And yeah, I mean, so yeah, basically, Lodi Fry comes in, first pitch, pop up to jazz, and then Rokio puts another great bat together and Cole frees them on that whoops a daisy backdoor curveball. He didn't mean to do that. He didn't like that? You didn't like that?

No, it's great. It's a horrible pitch for a hitter. You just see it as a ball out of the hand. you're like, okay, that's not a good pitch and then it just kind of comes back. If a pitcher could master that, man, they'd be in business, they can't. I thought it was interesting.

You know, Nailer first two at-bats, two knocks against Cole's fastball, like doesn't really like mess with Cole, but kind of messes with Soto, almost like kind of like making a mock rear of the abats. It's just how he plays. Obviously, like, seeing the ball well today, he gets a chance of bases loaded.

Yeah Instead of, you know A grand slam or a double in the gap We get a sack fly Just missed it, good swing I have this on my notes After that, Ramirez Steele second To go second and third again

They bring the base cam out Jake And it was nothing but just dirt covering Yeah Couldn't even see anything Base cam is electric usually You know how we feel about it Are there Jimmy has added some commentary that I do agree with the third base cam

they now have facing home that the action's going away from you and I think that's a little better than the base cam where dirt is just flying in your face and it ends with the blurry screen. So I don't know. Hey, we're evolving as a society and that's the final two hours of the show.

They do have those little cameras like in the cuts of the grass like pointing at the bases too like not the base cam but like cameras like out in front. Like I feel like those should kind of be like like everywhere for being honest. Yeah, I like when they have the... Like, little whack-a-mole cameras coming out, like up and down. Why not?

I mean, you're my tech guy. You know, we've got the ump out there wearing the Iron Man camera. Just... Okay, get back to the game. Sorry. So, Lane Thomas walks, bases loaded again to take Cole out. And Clay Holmes comes in. Another first pitch swing by the Guardians.

Brennan, you know, it's a fielder's choice. They do score a run, but first pitch. What I'll add to that, Brennan had some tough at bats. Cole kind of gave him his best stuff that I think Will Brennan was like, here's Clay Holmes, he throws 90% sinker. If I put one in play, that's productive compared to his previous at bat. So I think that was his thought process. Sure, sure, but like we're talking about bases loaded big time at bats here and just kind of,

I wouldn't call them quality of bats. How about that? And then they basically intentionally walk under some minutes because Hedges is in the game. And I guess you have to mention the block by Wells. It's nice to see a guy like he went to block those balls. He didn't just try to glove it. That saved the run. But Hedges K's and that puts that fire out.

And then it was just kind of Yankees add on. Yankees add on. Then Aaron Judge with the big swing. I mean, facing 100 Gattis. That has to feel really good. The pitch was not too many people can hit that pitch, man. I think it was the second highest pitch he's ever homered on. Shout out Sarah Lang's, our girl.

And like, I hate to say this, Jake. I'm not a Yankee hater. It's excellent for our company. If the Yankees go to the World Series, that's the type of swing that gets the guy right. Like, I'm not even, oh. Okay. Oh, foul territory doesn't matter.

I lost it in the dough. That's in the roof. That's in the roof. That's a roof ball. That doesn't hurt. Hey, pitchers. That's the best star people could find. Get a strikeout.

Boost your stats. I do remember that's right in front of the freaking Blue Jays. Oh. Doug out. It wasn't great for me. But yeah, I lost it. Overran. It lost.

Oh, sheesh. I'm sorry. Who's that Kurt Suzuki? He looked at me. You idiot. Life is the name of that Reddit post? Jesus, that's what you're kind of talking about before the show. For anyone not watching on YouTube, maybe go check it out and subscribe to the YouTube,

because sometimes it's a visual show. Yeah. I just think you power a ball like that, center field, like a little right of center field, which even makes it better, staying on a heater like that, your swing has to be perfect. We've seen him get close last couple games, you know? Yeah. But that could be the swing that kind of opens the floodgates up.

And that is, it's scary because if you think about what Glaber and Soto have done and then having Judge to kind of back them up, he's been in some big spots so far. Yankees look good, man. Yankees look good. And the guardians are fighting for their life, man. They're not playing the perfect baseball that they need to play. Yeah. In the Yankees lineup via postseason stats,

currently the only holes would be catcher. and third base with Wells and Chisholm, who have done their part defensively. Welles saved a run tonight. Been a little lost at the plate, although he had his best at bat to finish the game. Jazz ends up slapping a double in this one that, you know, all the Yankees problems right now

are kind of first world problems. Yeah. They are playing well, and it feels like... Well, I mean... If Judge clicks, like, it feels like they haven't been rolling yet they've won five out of their six postseason games it's kind of felt like that all year for being honest a little bit a little bit uh i do have this is part of our conversation during the game when i was texting you i have a big smile around the basis for aaron judge and it brought

me back to like he used to have the gap man yeah in the teeth and he fixed them like you forget about that and that's part of what like we're talking about the digital dark age is is anyone going to remember the gap? When you say we're talking about the digital Dark Ages, that's you and you read one article from a guy I believe named Adam so I don't think we are really having

that chat. It's got me in my feelings a little bit. I just like, yeah, I forgot about the gap. It was endearing and now he's got the perfect teeth. I get it. I hated when the gap went away because this is also a city that has a star with a gap. Michael Strayhan. Michael Strayhan is like Is he going to run for president?

Like hosts Good Morning America? Which like how many people watch that show? Because I've heard sometimes like what those people make. You know, like $30 million a year? Maybe more. Nuts. There's an defensive end. Like a good one.

A great one. Anyways. Isn't he a Lisp too? Like this guy's doing it. I was like sometimes it's good to have signature stuff. I saw YouTube video that was like having a, there's a hair theory out there that people don't get super famous until they do something weird with their hair. Like Chapel Rhone was a recent one.

Ninja, the like video game streamer. I know him. So I don't know. Just another wormhole that we're opening up for people. And I think the judge example is just like, you know, sometimes people are, sometimes big change ain't big change. I remember when judge got that, it was like, wait, he's losing his, he's getting new teeth. like who is this guy and it's like it looks nice it looks better it looks better i don't i had uh i came to dinner one night with uh my buddy matthew oh he'd be one and he had just gotten his teeth done but he had

like it wasn't the teeth yet it was like like just like almost like dentures because they were like still in the process of it and there was no space in between his teeth so he's like yeah like there's no air that goes through it the way he was talking that night was so funny, man. Interesting. Process. Yeah. This is all natural.

That's pretty good. No braces. My teeth need to be whiter. I'm working on it. All right. I have a buddy that got fake teeth. They're made out of porcelain and he used to just say he had a toilet mouth potty mouth the whole time. And it's just really good, bad boy humor.

What can the Guardians do to get back in this series? I guess that's kind of my question. Ramirez hits the Homer against Weaver. Like, that's great. he's needed to come up and like we mentioned in some of these big situations I don't really know are you going to outslug this team right now

like I said you can't do that but maybe you have to do that because if judge is getting it hot and they're going to continue to score runs I mean they could have scored more if it wasn't for Jazz and Rizzo just what you guys told me about the base running all year long oh my gosh

yeah yeah the base running famous Yankees radio announcer John Serling said they That was funny They run they look like they run the base is drunk It's I just don't think they coach them hard out there Because a lot of these guys are stars That they just let it go

And it's bizarre And if it hurts them in a game You'll hear a very different tone But dude I guess the other thing Guardians, okay, whatever their formula is to win Defensively They basically had three errors tonight It goes down in the books as too, but they need to be sharper defensively.

I think they need to cover up the holes in their lineup. And I don't know if that's just doing small ball productive at bats or if you sub a guy in or out. Let's, let me see any final notes on this one and then teeing up the rest of the series a little more. And it's from our friends in Mountain Dew. Maybe they need a refreshing citrus kick. Maybe that's what Cleveland needs.

Go do the do. Okay. You know, those Cleveland. mountains you're always hearing about. The mountain is calling and you should answer. Everyone in Cleveland have a do before the game. The stadium will be rowdy. I like that.

That'll be a rowdy. I like that. Jake. Whatever you're into, indoors, outdoors. Maybe you're playing Blitzball in the warehouse. I drink my Mountain Dew while I'm fishing. Gives me a little kick. Sometimes I put a little in for the fish.

Get them a little hopped up. Mountain is calling. You should answer. Grab your friends. Grab an ice cold mountain dew wherever refreshing beverages are sold. and do the do. Yeah, I mean, closing notes on this one. You really did find one, didn't you?

Oh, God, you had to. I mean, look at the sun that day. That's not my ball. That's not your ball. The answers are saying not your ball. But you after the game said, you got to catch that. Accountable. Yeah, he did. Accountable king.

I mean, yeah, I'm trying to come in. I mean, I'll do it. I can't see anything. I got no glasses on. That's a tough look for me. Who's the reliever in there? Penn? Look at the pitcher.

Who is that Kenneth Vargas? Bro, that is your ball. What's going on? The pitcher just standing right where that ball fell, just pointing to the sky. Look at Kenny. Someone please help me. I should never have said that. I knew I shouldn't have said.

That was a huge mistake. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's be real about this because I will lay out the Yankee side pretty easily. Rodon was kind of a question mark. Playoffs-wise. had an electric start the previous game. Of all things in the lineup,

Judge had been a question mark. He goes yard tonight. His at-bats have looked better. The Yankees have four to five starting pitchers on this lineup for innings, length, whatever they're looking for. We're going to see Clark Schmidt, Luis Heel, Stroman in the wings, if either of them has a tough day.

Marcus Stroman in the wings. They're like, go look at the current Guardians' rotation. Go look at the current Dodgers rotation. Like, you know, Marcus Strowman. Roman on those teams would be, we'd be talking about like, hey, we need seven innings from you in this one. The Yankees are feeling really good. They're up to O.

Bullpen is clicking. For Cleveland to get back in this series, let's, easy, game three is must win. Matthew Boyd has to give them a start. A start, man. Our guy, Bybee goes 1.1 in this. And again, it's not shots at him or vote who they were playing a playoff game to try to win, so I get that. But you need to start for Matthew Boyd. You need to start for Matthew Boyd.

You have to clean up the defense. First game, we saw, you know, walks and pass balls and some very uncharacteristic Cleveland-type stuff. Again, today, you know, it starts in the first inning with an error. Like, you can't set the tone like that. So instead of giving runs away, you've got to take some runs away. I think, you know, we'll start there. As far as the offensive side, I think that's just, we knew that. If you follow the guardians all season long, they've just, they don't, every game,

2-1, 3-1, 3-2, it's not a team that's going to out-slug you. It is going to be timely hitting. But Ramirez and Naylor have to slug. And they showed signs tonight. Like Naylor- Shows lines tonight. They're going to have to get it done. They're going to have to try to match up with the Kwan, Ramirez, and Naylor.

Kwan's been great. Rokio's been great. Maybe there's some sort of flop there. Although I don't know why you would change that. He'd like just keep that 9-1 together because they have been getting on base for those guys in the middle of the order. I mean, I think that's kind of what I'm looking at. Like those guys just have to have the big hits. I mean, it's crunch time, and it's do or die.

If you don't get those, and I don't know what they are with runners in scoring position through the first two games, it's not good. If you're not getting those hits with runners and scoring position, you're not going to win this series. That's just, that's the bottom line. You could talk about the pitching all you want, but you're not going to win

with the way their offense is kind of performing right now. We haven't even seen Class A in this series at all. I don't know when there would have been a time to bring him in. You know, people could say maybe in the 8th instead of Gattis, but Gattis has been great. I don't think that's really the case there. So I'm assuming we'll see him almost like no matter what game three.

Yeah, I mean. I'm kind of searching for ways that the Guardians get back in the series, and that can't be a good feeling for Guardians fans because I'm, I don't think I'm far off with this one, man. Hey, the Yankees did struggle against lefties this year. So Matt Boyd, who was very good for the Guardians, if he can give them a start Cade Smith looked sharp in his

outing today. Tim Heron looks good. Like if they can go... Yeah, I mean, they got four guys that they really, really love back there. Goddus, Heron. Boyd Smith, Heron, and get it to Class A. Gattis, you know, I'm not saying he's got to be out for the series.

He got got today. But you can put that together. And yeah, dude, I'm glad you brought it up. The Yankees pitched around Jimenez twice today, which like his numbers this season and even this postseason aren't electric. But the fact that the fact that you can allow the Yankees to do that, that's a problem. And dude, I feel like we've done this with almost every playoff game

except like the 9-0 Dodgers game. Like Josh Naylor was up with the bases loaded. That if he shoots the gap or, finds, you know, hits one 315 down the line. It's a very different storyline. So, hey, the Yankees are feeling really good. Rizzo hadn't played. It broke his hand.

He's getting on base at a 500 clip. Anthony Volpe, the young kid, is putting together really good at bats as postseason. Verdugo, who was, you know, Yankee fans were wondering if they were going to, like, wave him in August. He's made the plays, and he's given good at bats down there that it's Clark Schmidt versus Matthew Boyd.

Clark has been really solid this year. You know, he's not much for length necessarily in games that if Cleveland can get a lead and the first time that we're seeing three back-to-back games, if you can also have the Yankees not use their A-Pen, this is a first five-inning game for these teams. Like, make sure the Yankees don't use their A-Pen. A pen. Make sure you use your A pen. And that's very feasible. I think game three is Cleveland's, and maybe this is peacocking. I think this is their best chance to win.

Okay. It seems grim to me if I'm just really being objective here. Hey, it's one of the beauties of what we can do here is, you know, this isn't like broadcasting from the 2000s. I'm a Yankees fan. Easily the best I've ever felt. The best BPDs felt. The best Jimmy's felt. The best Joe's felt. Maybe that's exactly what they need is for you to say something like that.

Just the creepy neighbor. Just the creepy neighbor. Yeah, look, I mean, they were what? They were two innings away from going home and then David Frye hits the homer against the tigers. I mean, they've done it. They've been there. They've done that 100%.

Their best pitcher hasn't pitched in this series. Like, you can. J. Ram goes yard. You can find stuff, but I don't know. I think Yankees fans feel pretty good about winning two of the next five. I just got in on Austin Hedges, high school, like, scouting report. Second rounder are the Padres. 2011, a San Juan Capistrana, J. Sarah, which is Royce Lewis. A lot of guys went to J. Sarah. I don't know. I'm sorry. No, it's okay. sidetracked a lot this episode because I'm thinking about heavy things, people. Yeah.

Go check out Hedgy's baseball reference. It's a, it's a unique page. Guardians' catchers in the postseason so far between Bow Nailer and Alston Hedges are 0 for 23. It's black hole, man. Speaking of black holes, we need to end this episode. Yeah, I would, what I don't want to see from the Guardians

is having all their the threats in the lineup like Junkensi, David Fry, Manzardo, subscribe. Thank you guys. They've had chances.

I guess you could say that. If you're a Guardians fan, you're like, F you're ploof, you don't know what you're talking about. You've had chances. That's Dodgers. Got to come with it.

In Flushings. Walker Bueller, Moxie King. Woo!
