I'm Jake Storelli.
That is Trevor Bluff.
Dan Rourke is on the ones, twos, and threes.
Dalt-Feeley update in the sheet live.
And Trev, how are you, big dog?
I'm doing great, Jakey, boy.
another interesting game that obviously a little bit different result than last night but
an other worldly performance by our guy Yamamoto it was me it was matthew stafford watching the game on
the couch together talking ball so a beautiful night for me also coached my youth team today the
soquel podres 2 and oh on the day we got more games tomorrow i'm excited to get into it i know you got
your burn don't you dare ruin the standings for me okay you hear me i'm going to
Try not to, but I had no promises along the way.
Stafford knows ball, would it fair to say?
You know his ball?
Okay.
I love talking ball with them.
That makes me feel good.
Let's get into it.
A couple of you might have caught us.
We tried going live.
The tech monster fought us.
If you know, you know, and we'll always have that memory.
But let's talk about World Series game, too.
Hey me with the music, Daniel.
Toronto tries to go up 2-0 in the World Series behind the big ticket KG Kevin Gossman taking on L.A. and Yoshinobu Yamamoto, top one, Freddie Spaghetti with a double.
And then Will Smith is a bad boy for life with his RBI single.
In the third, Alejandro Tim Kirchen squeaks out a sack fly were tied up at ones.
Then it was all pitching in Jonas Brothers for about four innings until Kevin runs out of goss.
Will Smith, I am legend.
Turns on a homer, that punky Muncie.
Max is a beastie boy, two in the seventh, two in the eighth, but the story was Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
Another complete game.
Back to back against the best record in the NL and the best record in the AL.
and tonight he takes down the BJ's 5 to 1 final.
I love your Tim Kirchian voice.
I don't actually have the impression.
I just start squawking.
You know, of all the old heads in the game,
I think Tim Kirchran's still my favorite.
He just has this thing.
He just does it.
And Jeff Passing, you're not an old head just yet.
You're getting there, though.
Stay tuned to the end of the episode for our old head rankings.
Okay. Am I there? I'm turning 40 next year.
Standings for the series. Great burn, by the way.
Both teams, one and one in the series, Jake.
It's a five-game set, raised to the finish, best to three now. Love that.
It's exciting. There's a lot of different elements of this.
Obviously, we're going to spend a lot of time on Yamamoto, who becomes the story.
Trev, and hey, I hope we give Gossman the proper amount of love
because he went toe to toe with them, but ran out,
or the Dodgers are really good because the guys that clipped him are amazing.
But I think that's getting ahead of our stuff a little bit.
I think we start off in the first because both of these teams,
both of these teams kind of showed up in a weird way where the Dodgers,
it looked like they were going down easy, two-out rally.
Blue Jays get some action on, but they don't score.
Yeah, I mean, Will Smith, another story of the game.
We're going to talk about Yamamoto.
You got to talk about Will Smith.
You know, Freddie Freeman with a really, really good at bat there,
gets the two out double after, you know, Otani and Muki just haven't got the job done.
Freddy with a nice at bat, it would be great for the Dodgers if he got going.
And Will Smith, man, not a bad pitch right there, but able to keep the hands through.
I love that shot we just saw because that pitch was, you know,
it was down in a way, maybe not down in a way, but away enough.
keeps the hands
and able to drive it up the middle
1-0-0 Dodgers
and you know
before our other stream got cut short
I think you made a really good point
about the Dodgers
you're welcome
about the Dodgers
you know answering after last night
you know you got your butt kicked dude
you got you got smashed
yeah and to come out
swinging in the first I think
you know that's what good teams do
and the Dodgers are obviously a good team
and maybe maybe if they didn't score in the first
it wouldn't have mattered in the game
but I do think
kind of stealing back some of that momentum,
quieting the crowd down a little bit,
mean something in these games,
and then they go and do it.
And then the Blue Jays,
you know, they do what they've been doing all series,
long, all post season long,
pesky at bats,
lead off double, Nathan Lucas with a single there,
gets Vlad up first and third,
nobody out.
And we get our guy Yamamoto, man,
splittering him to death,
finally finishing him off with a curveball.
a huge, you know, that's, that's Cajonese type stuff right there out of Yamamoto,
gets the soft lineup from Alejandro Kirk, and then Dalton Varshal gets them to 3-0, Jake.
And Yamamoto comes back and gets the K on that nasty, nasty curveball.
So the Blue Jays, you know, obviously in that sixth inning yesterday, you know,
they got everybody in.
They squander a chance, a big opportunity to answer back on the Dodgers,
early there, but Yamamoto, you know, showing signs of cracking, bending, not breaking,
pitch count up a la Blake Snell. But then obviously he started to find it. Yeah, that I forgot,
the Varsho 3-0. That was a splitter that looked to be below the zone. Would have been interesting.
Ernie Clement bases loaded. I think we've seen a lot of that. But we saw what Yamamoto did the rest
of the day that maybe all that goes away. That Vladia bat, that was interesting. Span,
in the splitter and then gets him with a curveball
that might have been Yamamoto's worst curve ball of the day,
but it was one of his first and Vladdy was so geared up
because he's swinging at a 93 mile per hour splitter for four pitches.
Yeah, it was the splitter sets that pitch up.
You know, you're trying to see the splitter up,
you see the curveball up,
you automatically think splitter probably after seeing four in a row of them.
You know, that's what he's able to do,
mixed locations and pitches so well.
and I was talking before about just how well he mixed his pitches.
I'll get into it right now a little.
We'll sprinkle it in, if you will.
Kind of reversed what he had in the regular season where he was foreseen dominant,
not dominant, but around 30 to 35% of the time.
That was a splitter tonight.
32% of the time he did 34 of those, 25, 4 seamers, 23 curveballs, 13 cutters,
six sliders and four sinkers.
So six different pitches and four over 10%.
And that's always my line, Jake.
I always tell you guys that.
Hitters and hitters meetings.
You're trying to eliminate pitches as best you can.
Anything over 10% you got to pay attention to.
Anything under 10%?
You say, hey, man, if you throw that to me in a big spot, I don't know.
Like, I'll try to foul it off.
But Yamamoto, control of all of those different pitches,
a game planning nightmare like I always say.
And he was that again tonight.
Yeah, and I think it was fun to see.
Like, he had the splitter early.
He was searching for the fastball.
as the game went on, he found the curve ball.
I mean, at one point, I think this is from our boys,
a Cespitous BBQ.
He threw 12 first inning splitters,
which was more than you savage through in the whole game last night.
So like, he pressed that button in that inning because he had it,
and then he goes away from it.
It was still there.
But the curveball came along, the fastball,
some of the spots he was hitting late with that pitch.
Yeah.
And I was super impressed by the cutter because it, again, kind of when you're talking about
you're hitting a game plan and the percentages, I don't know, for me mentally, that's the pitch
that you're like, I don't know, I got a lot to worry about if he sneaks a cutter in, whatever,
but it was a nasty cut.
Everything was nasty.
The cutter's the worst pitch, man.
I'm telling you right now, you're on a heater and it looks like a heater.
And then all of a sudden, it just tails off hits the end of your bad or you just, you know,
it's it's a soft contact pitch man like I always say this you have to like try to pull the cutter
which is it's counterintuitive it's going away from you so you're like oh I got to stay inside
this but whenever you try to stay inside a cutter unless you're perfectly matched on plane with it
which it's very difficult to do that um you end up like fillet it and you fly ball to right or you know
something like that you know a little soft liner that way you really try to have to get on top of it
and I'm going to try to pull it.
That's how I had success against him, if I ever did.
It's just a, it's a hell of a pitch.
If you ever did?
I got, I hit some cutters.
Yeah.
I hit some, did I take Gossman up top before?
Yes, come on.
I'm a splitter, though.
Gossman really settled in, man.
One point after that, that first inning,
it's 17 sat down in the row before the big hit,
which we'll get to.
And same with Yamamoto, man.
I mean, both these guys,
That was a story of the game.
Blue Jays, I don't want to call it squander another chance, but you get first and third with one out.
You get a George Springer hit by pitch, Vladdy gets the knock.
Alejandro Kirk up there, first and third one out.
If you're the Blue Jays, you've got to be thinking big inning again.
I mean, that's what you have to do against the Dodgers.
Kirk hits the sack, fly, Dalton Varsho grounds out.
I mean, one, one, they tie the game, but that's two opportunities now within the first three innings
that you had a chance to really put a crooked number up there.
and take the lead and do all these things.
And you only end up getting one run out of those opportunities.
I think that's the look back and say,
yes, Yamamoto ended the night in a flurry,
but we had them on the ropes early and didn't have the knockout punch.
Yeah, Toronto,
they got their first three leadoff hitters on.
One was the Ernie Clement infield pop-up that I'm going to die on the hill.
Pitchers can catch pop-ups.
I'm sorry.
Yamamoto can catch pop-ups.
Yamamoto.
can catch pop. Oh, you're right. Let's keep
some of those... Some of these pitchers can't.
Some of those 6-7, 6-8 guys
don't do that. They can't.
I'm not doing... That's 20 push-ups.
That's 20 push-ups. I'll do them tomorrow
when I see you in L.A. Or maybe Monday?
Monday morning. You meet...
It's you. It's me. It's Rob Manfred.
Yeah. I think that's happening.
Let me tell you this. I know a lot of people
going to the game on Monday. Good.
A lot of people.
they uh someone somewhat zo did request it's my favorite pick of you and dan rourke producing today but you guys
your handshake i think it's the 21 all-star game that looks just like the office picture of michael and the
former manager that was that was me and dan's like first time really a it's a great picture you both
have great posture it's a nice handshake it's a nice moment uh zo requested if i get manfred
if i could try to take a picture like that which i don't know i'll do my best uh we'll deal with that
when we deal with that.
But you're right.
The Blue Jays felt like Blue J ball was lurking.
Between a couple well-hit balls,
a couple, that Lucas one was kind of bloopy,
but it was like, okay, this is what the Blue Jays do.
Then the game shut down, dude.
Shut down.
Six pitch innings.
I'm looking at the pitches in the order that the guys went down in.
It's six pitches, six pitches, six pitches,
11 pitches, 8 pitches, 6 pitches, 11 pitches.
I mean, we were flying coach.
It was nothing.
It was them.
It was the Joe Bros.
That, to me,
was interested in that.
Like, we're stopping a World Series game for a little mini concert.
Like, I know it was for cancer.
Yeah, there's two things going on here.
The stand-up to cancer, I think it's one of the coolest things they do.
I think it's a great moment.
The whole stadium, it's pretty wild.
All the teams, all the players, like everyone, you're in.
I think it's good.
And I think it's a moment that,
brought together by like the beauty of silence and togetherness that was a little surprised
when they went to the Joe, I like the Joe Bros. I'm, I'm, I'm in the club. Nice dudes.
I just felt like weird timing in the middle of a baseball game. Was it you Jonas Brothers in
Tulum? Were they there? I don't need to talk about that. Did you sign an NDA for that?
I don't need to talk about that. Top seven.
The timing felt weird. The timing felt weird. Timing felt weird. Timeing felt weird.
Um, top seven, Trev, before we get into it, because this is where the game was decided.
Uh, let's talk about Corona a little bit.
Because, you know, both fan bases, maybe us after this recording, maybe it's Corona time.
Because Corona brings La Playa to you, wherever you are, your team had a bad day at the office,
your team had a good day at the office.
Corona can be there for you.
Corona, they've been with us all season, uh, preseason, uh, preseason, spring,
training. Beers on the berm. Grab a Corona. Yeah, I know that gets to you. The All-Star game,
the playoffs, and even the World Series. Corona is there the whole way. It's the
servesa that brings people together. Grab some lime, spend your postseason like you're on the
Playa. Corona La Playa waits the official servasive MLB. Get yours at order Corona.com.
21 plus, relax responsibly. Corona extra beer imported by Chicago.
Illinois.
The Yoffs?
The Yoffs.
I like that.
I like that.
Some people don't like it.
It's annoying Jake's stuff.
Trev's the seventh.
And that's where these might unfortunately be final snaps for Gossman,
because he was out dueling Yamamoto up until this point.
And I don't know.
I guess I'm interested what you think.
Do you think, man, that Will Smith fastball.
I know you didn't like the.
run on it, but that's, I think
95% of that goes to Will Smith
to get his hands in on that
and to keep that fair, like, that's
an impressive swing.
Is Will Smith a short-arm
guy? Because he gets him out,
but he pulls him in.
I mean, where that pitch is.
Josh Willingham
used to love guys with big
short arms. He said, number one,
we can bench press with the best of them
because we don't got that far to go.
And number two, we can turn on a fastball.
I don't think Will Smith has short arms
but he makes him look short
the way he pulls him in right there
because he gets him out.
Yeah.
Maybe that's his know-how like
humans copy animals
like make yourself big to intimidate and stuff.
Is that Will Smith like,
hey, throw it in there.
See what happens because he did
in second deck in Toronto?
Yeah, and he knew it right away
and he pulled it the right way
so it wasn't hooking.
It was just straight.
A great,
swing by him and Dodgers go up to 1, 107 and a half off the bat, 29 degree launching.
That's about as perfect as you can do, people, 404 feet, beautiful swing.
At that time, you're like 2-1 seems great because of those six and 11 pitch innings,
all of a sudden Yamamoto's pitch count looks good.
You know Dave Roberts is just like, he's saying, can I go to my guy Yama, to my guy
Roki?
That's what I'm trying to do, people.
that's the game plan.
And then, of course, we get our guy.
Max Muncie does the opposite of pulling the hands and goes out,
gets one out over the plate, man.
Bam!
It's got a great swing.
It's not easy to do that, man.
I know he hit it 100 miles an hour off the bat,
but it's just not easy to drive the ball like that the other way.
Your swing has to be so dialed in.
And when Max Muncie's got the glasses on,
any swinging a hot bat for the Dodgers,
you have to look out.
You got to look out.
So 3-1 at that time, a couple more runs for the Dodgers on a past ball
and not great baseball, I guess you could say, by the Blue Jays.
But I don't think it really mattered because Yamamoto was so locked in at this point.
Hey, did that ball hit Freddy's foot?
It felt like nobody cared, but it super felt like that ball hit Freddy's foot.
Do we got to get replay of it?
I don't know.
we've got the main angle here.
And look like it hit off his glove.
I don't know.
They did ump cam and that one looked like it took a weird.
I don't know.
And then it was interesting because they intentionally walk Freddie when it goes to
2O that, you know, in theory the Dodgers would be the one to challenge that.
Freddie didn't react at all, but also Freddie wants to hit.
Hey, tell me how that inning started.
Well, after the first out, my guy.
Andy Pahas getting it going at the bottom of the order.
That's been missing.
That could be what the doctor ordered for the Dodgers.
That would have been two outs.
Shohei coming up against Louis Vuitt.
Can't believe the twins traded him.
And then, yeah, I don't know.
4-1 turns to 5-1.
And everyone, I think every baseball fan at that point,
it was in if Yamamoto finishes this,
game, there's no way for Toronto to win.
And I don't know, maybe that's obnoxious because, okay, if they get to Yamamoto a little bit,
then that's when they're going to go to Roki.
But he was so locked in, man, and it was just impressive.
He could tap whatever button he wanted on the controller, and that pitch was going to come out
and in a good location.
And when a pitcher is grooving, man, you just see the confidence that that ninth inning,
where he was locating his pitches was discused.
was disgusting.
He struck out the side in the eighth.
All so good.
Like, yeah, he was dialed in.
I believe he ended the game,
and I was just counting in my head.
I don't have the stats in front of me.
He was it 20 in a row to end the game?
Yeah.
Sheesh.
Yeah, that's not bad.
And, I mean, I don't know.
Oh, do that one again, Dan.
He gives the pitchers hop there.
I think it's the next one.
This one.
Skirt.
Yep.
Yep. If you get a little hop step on that landing leg, you're, you go.
I mean, I think you have to try to do the Yamamoto challenge again at the office.
I know it's midnight there, but after this show, I think you got to do it again.
You know how to do it now. You can do it.
Yeah.
And maybe. Challenge. Yeah, maybe.
Great for the Dodgers and their bullpen who doesn't have to throw again.
It's not always going to go this way, people.
Yeah.
So if you're a Dodger fan, like you're not out of the weeds,
yet, I still think there is some exposure that you're going to have to get, obviously.
But just quick, a little bit more on Yama and kind of what this means.
I mean, back-to-back complete games against two of the more pesty teams in all of baseball,
and the Brewers and the Blue Jays, guys that just have great at bats up and down the lineup.
And I think you could put the Blue Jays kind of at a different category than the Brewers,
if we're being honest.
They just hung an 11 spot on you the night before.
Yeah, man.
An 11 spot.
And here's Yama saying like, hey, earmuffs.
Oh.
I don't give a fuck.
Hmm.
I'm going to go nine on you.
Nine, four hits.
I'm going to retire 20 in a row to end the game.
I don't care.
That's nuts.
That's not.
That performance is, I mean, if it's, what else is it,
than legendary. It's in the world series. Back-to-back starts like this. So, I mean, I'll call it legendary,
because it is. I mean, it is. And, yeah, just a reminder who this cat is, um, he came over.
And we did the whole, we did a little bit. And I'm trying to stop these conversations. Pretty much
everyone that's coming over from Japan these days can play ball, because they play really damn good
ball over there. Nest. That Yamamoto, who came,
came over 510-170, a lot of teams lined up and said,
we would love to give you $300 million to play baseball.
And he's showing why.
His last two starts are just insane, are just insane.
The Brewers, which I know they had a tough postseason,
but that's partially because of him.
And then, yeah, to do that against the Blue Jays,
like depending how these blue jays go the rest of the way i mean it might be remembered as a
all-time insane performance yeah so that's what i'm trying to go and this is a little late-night
simulation talk right now uh when like does enough time pass that we can look back on world
series moments and say shit that was actually legendary like in the moment because you're like
oh it's it's right now it doesn't you know maybe it doesn't carry the weight but you know fast forward
a couple years
it becomes that
like Madison Bumgarner in the 2014
World Series that's stuff of
legends what he did there like are we
going to be sitting here in three years four years
being like do you remember those last
two possibly three Yamamoto starts
and what he did for the Dodgers in 2025
like I think we will so I'm just trying to like
portray the weight of what we just saw
because again, yes, Blue Jays, incredible performance game one.
It's a series now, great, but Yamamoto single-handedly, you know, won this game for the Dodgers.
Yeah, I was just in our sheet basically texting with Dahl
because the joke I was going to make, and I think I figured it out,
was I think managers that have gone starting pitcher to closer this postseason,
I think they're 3-0 or 4-0.
also managers that have just gone complete game are 2 and oh
and that's both Yamamoto right now.
So again, add that to our analytics binder.
Love that for us.
When we take over the Rockies.
And Trev, because we're on him and we should be on them more.
It's the midweek.
What day is it?
It's literally Saturday, Jake.
Yeah, not midweek, no.
The Best Western Road Warrior,
which has been a Friday thing all year,
brought to you by Best Western Hotels and Resorts.
It's Yamamoto, bestwestern.com.
Yamamoto, here's a couple of the stats we've got.
Retired 20 Blue Jays in a row.
Coach Trev had that first World Series complete game since
Johnny Quato, 2015.
Is that the Royals?
Yes.
He had the bullpen too, and he just said, screw that, huh?
First pitcher with back-to-back complete games in the same.
postseason since
Kurt Schilling,
01.
They had a couple starters on that team.
First Dodgers pitcher to pitch a complete game in the World Series
since Oral Hersheiser, 88.
Little Poppy, not alive yet.
I love Oral Hersheiser.
I was going to clip that and cut out the last name.
Yamamoto is the first pitcher to retire 20 plus batters of a postseason game since
1956, Don Larson.
He had a good night that night.
You're disgusting.
A perfect night.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And then this is a little more dodgery,
but when starters go six plus innings this postseason,
the Dodgers are 9 and 0.
Every other team is 7 and 8.
So, yeah, that one Dodgers weakness still lurking,
but guess what?
Didn't need it tonight at all.
Roki hasn't pitched in,
Rokey hasn't pitched in, what,
by game three,
it's going to be 10 days.
Yeah.
Start Roki.
Why not?
Well, we're going to get into the matchup,
which I think is fascinating,
by the way.
Should we just go there now?
Because I think we've covered game one pretty well.
The only question I have is just start Boba Shett.
I was just going to go there.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right?
Just start Boba Shet.
I'm sorry.
That was a little cute.
If you're going to pinch hit him, just start him.
Yeah, I'm wondering if there's other layers there.
I don't think so, because otherwise you wouldn't pitch hit him.
But yeah, man, because that, okay, go back to the-
He doesn't look healthy.
Like, he's not running the ball out at all.
Sure.
So, like, I guess you could say, hey, like, give him the pinch hit.
You can run for him automatically, and you can't do that at the beginning of the game.
I guess.
if that's the case, then, you know, I don't know.
Yeah, it's just...
Then he should never start.
I don't know.
If that's the case, he shouldn't start anymore,
but I have a feeling he's going to be starting next game.
And, okay, what if Bo Bichette was involved in that first inning
when you might have had your best chance against Jan Moto?
Like, you can do so...
I was shocked.
I was in such Saturday live stream mode that I think there was a groundballed ICF,
and I was like, what?
I was shocked that Bichette wasn't in the...
in the game. So I wonder if there's more to that.
George Springer keeps getting hit by things that really suck to get hit by.
I don't know. I think he's okay. It hit a weird part like between the forearm and the wrist there.
But, God, he's getting banged up.
Anything else from this game or do we start getting excited for game three?
Let's go game three. Let's go game three.
Tyler Glass now, friend of the family, we could say that.
Max Scherzer, I can't say that, I hope to one day.
But man, here we go.
Another Dodger starting pitcher that can lay it down on you.
I think Tyler, compared to Yamamoto, has a little bit more susceptibility for the wild or big inning,
which, by the way, Yamamoto no walks.
Oh, yeah, no, he was in control all game.
insane. So, I mean, it's going to be that test again. I mean, Glassnow can be as
intouchable as someone gets in baseball. But can the Blue Jays put together that one to two
innings to get him out by the fifth or six? And then Scherzer, man, I don't know. I'm,
I'm scared to give the same speech again because this lineup is a little different than Seattle's.
But we're going to see what the old man's got for one more night in October.
Glassnell's longest
outing of the year, seven innings pitched
you know, so he's,
you can't imagine him
getting the bridge
or like not needing a bridge
to Sasaki.
Like there's going to be some other guys having to
come in game three, most
likely. Shurzer, I think
that's an interesting choice
not going to Beaver there.
John Schneider had some quotes about it saying
you know, Scher
it was he had some extra rest he wanted to get Bieber some extra rest because he
was coming off a TJ and you know just thought that was appropriate he also thinks
that game three there first game at Dodger Stadium Max is obviously pitched there before
it was a Dodger I always forget that he was a Dodger he thought he could handle that
that a little bit better and let Bieber kind of get settled in and again have the extra day so
I'm okay with it he also said then that means Scherzer can be available for game seven
okay like fire me up I'm aged already
great pitching matchup kind of like
guys that get it done completely different
especially at this point of their careers
that right like who
it seems what I'm trying to like put this together
and I can't really put my finger on it
but like Max Scherzer salty old
wily veteran
Hall of Famer and then Glass now's like
I'm just kind of me
and I just throw really hard and I'm like super good looking and like just different ways to go about things, right?
They approach life differently but have ended up in the same place.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Life is completely different.
Yes.
But also same.
Also same.
Like they would, they both probably love each other.
Like that's, we were laughing today during the live stream because we were like, I think Zoe asked.
He was like, what show hey really like?
like, well, that's a great question.
We asked that. I asked that, I think, either to you or to Chris Rosen,
and somebody commented, there's like a zillion Japanese interviews that you can go and, like,
check out.
I haven't done it.
Well, I was, from there, I went, it blows my mind because I forget if it was a Dodgers
account or if it's Glass Now's account.
But, like, Glassnow's a dude.
Like, that was code for what Treve and I are saying.
He's great hang, like, likes to talk about things outside of baseball.
loves baseball
but he
like he spends every day
with Shohay Otani
and they're both on the pitching staff
so like I bet
I would just love to know
their interactions
and I think the truth of the truth of it
like Shohay's a dude
he's a guy
he's a guy
let me ask you this question real quick
would you rather watch a show
with Shohey O'Tani
and Tyler Glassdowne
hanging out or
old Missouri teammates
Max Scherzer and
Kyle Gibson
Those are two completely different shows
Player
Trev I've never been more confident in saying
I would enjoy the glass now show
Really? I know the opposite way
I would have
I would have
This would shock people the better clips
would be from Gibson Scherzer
I mean, some of those clips would be fire.
But give me the show, hey, Glass Show.
At least I think they were teammates there.
Did I just make that up?
Who knows?
And why even double-check it?
God, I guess what else is significant in game three that we'd...
I don't know.
It feels a little weird that, you know, baseball normally,
it feels like it's a ton of moving parts,
but it feels like when,
is Toronto going to get a look
or will they get a look at the Dodgers
Bullpen, which is a fun game.
That game didn't happen tonight.
Okay, do you
think they changed the lineup? Does
Toronto go with Bo Bichet in the lineup
or do they stay with the kind of FLEFA
and then bow off the bench?
For me, it's a no brand. I'm still,
I still don't fully understand tonight
that, I mean,
So back-to-back games, maybe that was a thing.
They have the day off.
They have the travel day.
So I'm almost guaranteeing Bubeshet starting on Monday.
And for the Dodgers, I think they run the same lineup out there.
I think they have it.
There was talk about Pahas and what do you do?
Can you make an Alex call?
Does Edmund go play center feel?
But it seems like Edmund's not ready to go out there.
So they'll probably run the same lineup out there.
as well. Yeah, and they just
believe in what they do.
Pah has got a single
tonight, does that spark him?
Kike Hernandez
has made the most postseason
appearances for the Dodgers in their all-time
history. Love that.
What a life. What a life.
We'll be together Monday
at the game. Oh, my God. Chavez
Ravine, me, you,
Rob Anfred. And I
know it's been a funky one today.
Before we send you out, people, it was
brought to you by Nutrafall.
There's what's better than postseason
and hair.
Take care of it, people.
If you're starting to get thin up there,
why even take a chance of it?
Even if you're not, don't you want healthier,
stronger hair? Don't you want healthier, stronger
muscles? Think of it that
way. We just kind of
treat our hair differently sometimes.

Yeah, so of note for the talking baseball family,
we're going to be in the building for game three.
We're going to try to go live from in the building for game three.
We did that.
We did it from game five.
of the World Series last year.
If anyone remembers that old ditty,
good time, good time to go live.
Are we confirmed?
Are we, we're doing it in-house, huh?
We're going to do our damnness.
Rob says he has the logistics.
We will see.
Honestly, when we did game five, it was awesome.
Like, we just camera to the computer, talk ball.
So that should be the setup.
Maybe if Manfred-
Not live.
Again, let's just tell people,
we won't be going live tomorrow.
No, we, well, not tomorrow.
We are going to.
That's what we did for game five last year
And that was my request
So we'll see
We'll see
We're gonna get you an episode
As you're seeing right now
So we'll be at the game
If you're there wave
Say Trev sucks
I don't know mix it up
And 1-1 series
Best of 5
I want to let everyone know
I'm wearing my show hey shirt tomorrow
Or excuse me Monday
Whenever you're watching this could be tomorrow
But just Monday
Game 3
I'm wearing the John Boy Media
a shop.jamboymedia.com,
Shohei, little characters,
Japanese characters.
I'm really getting into the Japanese culture
as I'm set to go there in November.
Right.
So I, we'll be wearing that.
It doesn't mean I'm rooting for the Dodgers,
but I'm reping my Shoah shirt.
Feels like Monday in L.A.
in the Shoah shirt, you might lean that way
for a couple pitches, and that'd be okay.
That'd be okay.
I'm biased.
Glass now.
All right, everyone.
Thank you to Coach Tre.
of Dan Roar grinding through it.
Grindr.
Dahl.
Dahl.
Prime Mark Price.
The best.
Buckets.

I didn't.
You did.
I said I was going to clip it.
He's going to be at the ballpark.
He's a dude, huh?
Yeah, we've had some talks, man.
Like, that was pretty cool for me, yeah.
Oh.
Yeah.
Respect.
