 The Nationals are going to the World Series and Garrett Cole and the Astros Blank the Yankees in game three Let's do it What's going on everybody welcome to talking baseball my name is John boy. I'm coming to you from New Jersey I am wearing a Hooded sweatshirt and I have my co-host and best friend on the other side of the computer on the other microphone His name is Jake and he is wearing no clothes above the waist Jake how you doing? You're not sure about below the waist either. I'm not sure. I think I saw a blanket there your polio blanket you carry with you my teddy Roosevelt blanket I Jim I'm doing alright man And his listeners of the show know we are Yankee fans and we've God I didn't set this joke up, but we've we've had our shirts taken off our back the past two days by Verlander and Cole I'm doing alright though. Happy for the Nats They were clearly the better team. I think Hindsight being 2020 It was them or the Dodgers Both those teams seem pretty superior to Atlanta and St. Louis and Hindsight and Yeah, I don't know. I think the only other thing I have to say is I do have a massive pimple on my forehead that you noted I Attacked the hell out of it during the six and seven thinnings of the Yankee game yesterday Half out of frustration half out of that something I enjoy and if you are new to the show The shirt off thing isn't a shtick. It's not the Brett kreischer stand-up thing This is how I normally live my life podcasts are well liked because it's people actually being themselves So this is me today. I'm I'm here man. How are you doing? I'm still sick still feel like shit but whatever I mean, oh man getting a phone call. Is it Wednesday? Wednesday at 11. That's my weekly business call damn classic Yeah, still feeling pretty sick. I'm excited that the Yankees probably get a rain out tonight And I can like recover but I feel like I've spent three days just kind of like Whenever I'm not working just recovering but and it's a weird sick. It's like a nagging sick. It's like my body feels damp and cold Do you think There's even a 1% chance that due to like what this has become as a company and it all started as tying to the Yankees that Part of your sickness is tied to two Yankees losses No, because I started getting sick before that Okay, remember I got I got sick. I think I got sick before that Tied to an airport trip and lack of sleep because we're do talking Yankees every night and talking baseball every morning okay, I Got it at 1% and 1% okay That's why I have to send a text now and say hey, sorry Hey, sorry. We're recording later than usual Call you after for my weekly Wednesday business meet call Fun times fun times You know, it's not fun Jake Advancing to the NLDS NLCS because you you score a ton of runs in the first inning and then getting eliminated From the NLCS because you allow a ton of runs in the first inning Yeah, what a bunch of Gibranis That's a at Atlanta was probably dancing on graves a little bit because yeah, probably the the second worst feeling to a 10-run first inning elimination game is a team going for a sweep and put up a seven burger in the first There's some poetic like justice to it to where they're like, yeah, this is how it feels Yeah, oh Oh Not as fun when the rabbits got the gun. Oh my god. You ever seen a rabbit with a gun? No, I saw one Rabbit just a do it. You're just a rabbit. No one cares. Oh Don't break for all our rabbit fans. Well, then my neighbor was like, I love this rabbit It's my personal rabbit. I was like, what have you done to it to make it so suicidal? So it was a weird day in eighth grade Do you want to go are we not a chrono pod anymore? Do you want to do? No, we're still a chronic pod but first we have to say big. Thank you to Austin Bissell some cell Dan Fiorentine Yeah My kella finale. There's no finale. It's Michael Fennel. My kella Fennel Micaela Fennel. I Don't know how you spell that it's Michael with an A at the end You know, I know you spell it. I don't know you pronounce it Christopher Micklets Nick Litz my guy Micklets Tanner Jacobs and sounds like a guy from the south to throw her It's either full Urea quarterback or pitcher and Boville Boville That's cool. Those are most recent Patreons. We appreciate it. Thank you guys very much Patreon.com slash Boy media I think Yeah, I nailed it. You want to burn these games Jake? I got burns All right, Yankees Astros since we're cron pod Cron pod Yankees Astros Here we go. This burn is brought to you by and On your mark Get set burn Have you ever seen a savvy with the butterfly doze a savvy with the butterfly doze a pitching is a habit as Louise in the pinstripes try to defend home field against cold world Garrett in the Astros top one hang them and bang them Play the music Jose Altuve Jose Altuve solo shot for the little fella. Seve loads them up, but he gets out of it It's one oh after one top two retweet hang them and bang them Josh goes Ridiculous with a solo shot of his own two nothing strolls Yanks will get a lot of action on the bases, but like your drunk friend at the bar They could not score off Cole 7th inning daggers as Stroh score in a wild pitch in a sack fly baby Glabie smacks a solo shot, but the Yanks were child's play on offense Houston for Yankees one Astros take a 2-1 series lead It's a weird game. It's a good game for the Astros. This is the first game of the series They controlled start to finish Lot of runners left on base for the Yankees whenever they got a runner on base. It seemed like there was two outs already. It was Maybe Cole's worst performance Which is seven innings pitch zero earned runs Yeah, and that's how you sum up Garrett Cole this season Yeah, Garrett Cole didn't have a stuff most around most amount of base runners he ever had five walks. Oh Damn, so the Yankees got to him. No seven innings zero earned runs Yeah, there's you you can end up walking all over yourself with some of the Cole stuff because yeah, I was I got into the numbers It was the second amount second most amount of base runners Garrett Cole had let on base in a game this season Yet the Yankees go scoreless. There were five walks, which his season high was three And I don't think it was too many controversial calls I think there's a couple good at bats and he was pitching around a couple guys which You and I stumbled into is kind of a big topic in Yankee land is that Judge and Glaber there's three Yankees hitters right now that if you're an Astros fan, you have your stomach sink It's La Mayhew judge and Glaber and they half did their thing yesterday, but a lot of other guys are in a bad spot Right. Yeah, the Yankees put they were trying to spread out the lefties So they had Gardner three hole behind judge and then Dee Dee Six hole behind Glaber and then the Astros were totally Cole was totally fine pitching around Glaber to get the deed He did it twice Just nibbled stayed away and then with judge Cole kind of did the same thing like judge said I only got one pitch in the zone if you go look at my at bats and I got anxious and I wanted to hit so I was chasing and I mean it's on judge for chasing, but it's also Kind of the lineup construction and this is also some good pitches from Cole to yeah I'm not not trying to downplay cold all I'm trying to say from a Yankees fan perspective the lineup construction I didn't say it before the game so it's Monday morning quarterback But it was in the end it allowed Cole to navigate the Yankees lineup much easier Yeah, and that's I it's funny. I can't believe I didn't say this on talking yanks But if I mean outside of La Mayhew judge La Mayhew judge and tour is the three guys I talked about that you'd be worried about if you're Houston the Yankees only had one hit It was Edwin's double So outside of those three guys, there's only one hit And there's a couple walks Aaron Hicks actually had some good at bats. He had a nice walk filed off some pitches But yeah, I mean Cole shoved The Astros bullpen came in Joe Smith who tortured the Yankees the night before Glaber gets him Which I think I think there is some importance to the Yankees getting on the scoreboard Because they were at one point. I think 16 innings scoreless something like that 14 Harris and Ozuna looked good and Yeah, the the the other thing you and you and I stumbled into is You know the Astros won this game. They played better and like the Yankees beat themselves Game to it felt like kind of an even game each team was looking for the the blow The Astros dominated this game hitting pitching fielding like any way you chop it up the Astros beat the Yankees Yeah, and then the Yankees beat themselves a little as well Yeah, it could have been I mean it could have been a lot worse Tyler Lyons was getting loose in the first inning for the Yankees Severino just straight up hung a breaking ball in the zone to Altuve as the first pitch which Altuve always swings at the first pitch Three of the Astros home runs have come They have three home runs in this year where they have four or five home runs in this series Three of them in three games have come on first pitch get me over off speed So the Yankees should probably scrap that from the arsenal Ain't working and the Astros are really good At laying off Severino's slider if it was low and attacking if it was high So good in the first inning Brantley's at bat made me think maybe Sevies got a tell and they picked up on it And then I mean I have the ability to like edit and do side-by-sides and overlays and all that shit And I don't think there was anything there. I think they were just very very disciplined that if it was at the knees Take it if it was higher swing. So Yeah, it's funny I think the the devil's advocate came in me a lot a little bit just because I don't know when when all the voices go One way usually the answer is somewhere in the middle is not as far and everyone was like, okay Houston Houston's got it still Seve's pitching his tip pitches and it was kind of like well They're also really good hitters and Seve doesn't look like he has his good stuff at all Yeah, but did you that Brantley at bat was weird? I mean the 3-2 slider Brantley didn't even think about Moving his feet to protect like that was the one where I was like wait that was weird Yeah, I was right at these I think Michael Brantley's a really good hitter a he's a guy They can wait till the end of a pitch if he wants to but be I don't know. I think they're they're almost like, okay postseason. There's gonna be more off speed if if a pitch starts at your knees It's most likely gonna finish below it and I think a lot of them were right in that approach Like you were saying kind of the they almost had the knuckleball approach if it was low Let it go if it's high let it fly Yeah, I'm not when I say that maybe Seve was tipping. I'm not taking anything away from the Astros hitters And I don't think he was in the end but at that one Brantley at bat with the 3-2 I thought Seve threw like a really nice slider that during the regular season and during average hitters they They protect or chase or at least check swing, you know something And then he just was bad on the shoulder from the get-go. So that was where interesting But I don't think it was anything like that Yankees offense is the problem and I mean the Yankees offense faced the two best pitchers in the American League all season and The Astros have the two best pitchers in the American League and the Yankees don't so that's kind of where it adds up Yeah, this this almost might sound like sour grapes But this game could have been a lot uglier and I there's part of me that almost wishes It was because in Yankee land a lot of the attention is on Severino in the bullpen And it's like, you know, the lineups got diced up And I think I think true Yankee fans and people are starting to notice that but also it was Verlander and Cole And that's your solace as Yankees fans. You know, you were you were so close to going up 2-0 in this series Now you're down 1-2, but they got you with Cole and Verlander and my my going away line has been You know the the Yankees you have to get grinky in the bullpen day if that ends up happening And then if you can't beat Cole and Verlander one out of four times if you end up bringing this to seven or however This series plays out, then you don't deserve it So that'll be interesting and a good good on Houston I think I think we're gonna see and maybe I should be saving this but I Still think this is a seven-gamer. I don't know who wins it. I think we're gonna see Every game is a storyline, but I think the storylines are gonna change so much Who knows if you and Carl Stanton comes back is he gonna get I'll then replace with someone is it someone like Mike? Talkman who got thrown out the other day. I I think this series is gonna have a lot of tossing and turning still And I I want to be shocked if after game one the pressure was on the Astros after game three The pressure is on the Yankees. I want to be shocked if after game five the pressure is back on the Astros But we'll we'll see Yeah, game three is a must win for the Yankee or game four is a must win for the Yankees Yeah, the Yankees if they lose a Grinky or a bullpen start That that's it for them and that's that's why I was I was surprisingly Upbeat after the loss because that was kind of as a Yankee fan. That was my honest I was like, yeah, they got us with Verlander and Cole the game to loss ends up sucking this loss. I don't know 4 p.m Garrett Cole like we kind of put together an okay effort, but at the same time we did it It's almost like wash the hands. Let's get the bats hot vs. Granky and a bullpen day and hopefully you got to take down Cole and Verlander at some point. Yeah Yeah, all right or not Or or Houston wins it. Yeah, that's those are the options. I think if But some must win we'll get to that later. Let's talk about the clincher game. Yeah Only other thing that I think from a Houston side it kind of missed out on Starting reddick was an interesting decision We didn't think they'd start reddick and he comes out his first step bad and hits a home run And that's almost not only is that a boost home run wise, but it's almost like AJ hinge press the right button Yeah We had a fucking hanging slider bomb. So good for reddick. Yeah, all right. Let's bring you the burn of Nationals Cardinals On your mark get set burn Game four is the Nats and Patrick Mahomes Corbin try to chief their way to a sweep Versed Daniel Hudson River as the card season is looking like a floating dead body Rendon sack flies Soto RBI double Robles RBI single Jan Gomes to RBI single Trey Turner to RBI single This was all in the foy stitting Hudson only records one out Nats put up a seven burger in the first Hey, Atlanta. How are you? Yeah, he's got fight solo shot Edmund RBI grounded I do not care Jose Martinez one of the more fun at bats You'll watch when he's at the dish limbs everywhere He's swinging the bat to RBI double cards scared him for a bit, but actually not all Hogwarts shit as the Nats take out the brooms and sweep the NLCS after a seven for Final Cardinals wasted everyone's time. Oh I Mean come on Nats are good. I'm not trying to take anything away from the Nats. Yeah There's never a moment of fight in these games Yeah, they got a yeah, they got like embarrassed. Yeah, I Think Cardinals fans would say that too Listen to how this game started. Yeah Top of the first Corbin strike out strike out strike out Bottom the first single double sack fly double intentional walk fielder's choice single Single and I mean one of those singles is just a lazy pop-up that didn't get caught They moved Jose Martinez. They they started him Jake. They moved him to the two-hole And when we were saying like start him someone somewhere I don't know a comment section on YouTube or in the live chat was like you start You start Jose Martinez. You don't have a right fielder. No, it's like how bad is he and then I was like, oh, okay Yeah Kind of got hung up in no man's land there and that cost him a lot of runs in a seven inning first They didn't score another run the rest of the game the Nationals. They were like we got seven. We're fucking we're good We're celebrating and I heard they were going into the clubhouse taking shots in between every bad after they got seven Every at bat the whole team. Yeah, the pitchers are like, it's on you. We're fucking hammered Yeah, that's a that is that is really tough, especially the Cardinals they showed a little bit of fight They got runners on base. They scored four runs Hudson seven runs only for our earned It's tough looking at the box scoring Heinz in hindsight because Wayne right Hellsley Gallegos Miller They go shutout technically even though Wayne right did give up two of those hits at the end of Hudson's day, but Yeah, it's it's tough and especially, you know, obviously you couldn't live like this if you're the Cardinals, but When I saw Wayne right come out just knowing he was available compared to Daniel Hudson. I was like, yo Yeah But I mean you have to win another one after this one like you have to inform Exactly, I mean but that was I Think that was just as much as a mind fuck just seeing the better pitcher the old reliable starter Come in after Daniel Hudson didn't have it like that almost felt like a knife twist in and of itself Cardinals outclassed outmatched whatever you want to call it the the Nats have a little bit of magic and juju going Baby shark city Howie Kendrick Wins the NLCS MVP. It's the talk of the office and it's just like I Don't know. I think they got a little magic and they were the better team Who do you think had the most at bats without recording a hit in this series? I this feels a little unfair because I have the box score in front of me, but is it Tommy Edmond? Yeah, he went 0 for 14 Yeah, and I again, I I know you and I are losing Cardinals fans by the minute, but I Don't know when we had initially initially talked about this series You know you and I harped on Gulchman and Ozuna and even Yachty like those righties I think are the threats and someone and that are a Cardinals fan DM me and was like, hey man You got to give Tommy Edmond some love like he's had a really nice year. He switched This is kind of why I don't want to be rude I think Tommy Edmond's a good young player, but the playoffs are a different animal and you got to prove it And I mean he got eight up this series Veterans do better and I I think I'll take that I think experience matters so much in the postseason And I think that's that's something that's kind of underrated about the Nationals the Nationals are the oldest team in baseball Aside from Want so you know people people don't know he's 20 years old That's that's been getting missed out on these playoffs, but when you actually go through the roster and you look at like Shers or maybe Fernando Rodney's cooking the books a little bit like Adam Eaton Rendon. Howie Kendrick Ryan Zimmerman Kurt Suzuki They've got some dudes that have been around for a while And I think I think that it does go overlooked a little bit because the regular season is kind of a young man's game 162 games. It's a grind to bring that energy every day In the NBA you the oldest teams are normally the best teams because it's experience and it's having been there The baseball it'll be interesting if that becomes part of the narrative because I I'm kind of with you man I mean you in the playoffs you believe in the old dog over the young pup. I mean nine out of ten times How many players you think they have younger than 26? Younger than 26 so that got that got at bats in this series. Oh, okay Soto and Robles, right? And then Trey Turner would be the coin flip. I'm gonna guess for this example. He's not so I'll say to to yeah Look at that shit. You think guys think I'm fucking dumb. What what age did I give you? 26 Trey Turner's 26 and 108 days Okay, so yeah, he's not younger than 26 Rendon's 29. Everyone else is like 30. Yeah, that kind of makes me root for him. Oh You're liking the old man. Yeah, if they were a bunch of 20 year olds I'd root for that too just kind of fun to latch on to one or the other Yeah, that that is true Yeah, and I'm trying to think pitching wise I'm gonna click on Tanner Rainey because he's starting to earn some trust. He has another Hit listening. He's 26, but um, I mean if you Well, the Cardinals Well, how did Tanner Rainey earn your trust pitching slop innings against the Cardinals and an elimination game when they were Last couple appearances have been okay, and I mean Jim think think about it this way too. I mean a You know, I think he had one bad appearance Let's see so first the Dodgers his first appearance his first playoff game ever is against the Dodgers Okay, he goes one he gives up one hit a walk to earn runs Since then he's been one two three four clean appearances 3.2 innings and he hasn't given up a hit or a walk And two of those are against the Dodgers two of those are against St. Louis where hey if you're gonna point at St. Louis and say They weren't hitting it all that's fine But we know this as fans when Scherzer Strasburg Corbin whoever comes out of the game as a St. Louis fan You're going thank fucking God, and they still didn't get him. So Tanner Rainey's earned a little bit of his keep Okay, I'd take it back a little bit. I mean this his second appearance versus Dodgers. It was all deep hard contact So I still didn't have it after that, but yeah, you're right. You're right I mean he's he's not coming in in close games though down to down for down to I had seven I had three in this Elimination game. So yeah, he's only got one hold technically if you if you like to measure things that way But basically what I was trying to say, I mean, you know Scherzer Strasburg Annibal Sanchez Corbin, I mean none of those guys are young pups either I mean and do little Hudson like Tanner Rainey is the only almost semi outlier So yeah, these are do we have to do some old gnats thing like what's uh, you're my history guys There anything we could do with the nationals and history and the nation's capital or some shit like that You can put them in funny outfits and wigs and have given them with dumb accents Okay, I'll work on it do it Seems daunting let's get historical breaking news Madden is the Angels manager ALCS game four has been postponed Hello operator Interesting so all right. We'll we'll do it's cool. We found that out before what we're about to do Yeah, we were about to have like a conversation of if it gets postponed or if it doesn't so now that we know That's pretty cool. Let's let's do we have any good buys to the Cardinals before we move on Was it worth it? Oh geez Do you think that's a fair question? I like what you're saying Because I I get where it goes next it's like would you guys have rather lost in game five and come into next year It'll be like we were right at game five if we got into the nlcs We could have taken them down and said it's like oh, we got our shit pushing. I'm cursing a lot today shirtless Jake curses Yeah, man, I I don't know like yes, you obviously want to go to the nlcs, but it's that's about as bad as it gets Yeah, it's fair, right It's kind of fair. I mean, what do uh You know where I'm sure we're gonna do offseason deep dives further than you're even thinking right now on a lot of the teams out There, but if you're the Cardinals like what do you? What's the game plan? Oh We'll save that for the offseason Maybe the offseason will try to run through like a lot of teams and be like what yeah I was just thinking like shot out of a cannon like do you look at their starting pitching is it bullpen? Is it like an impact lefty bat? Like is there anything that just jumps out to you that like the Cardinals need this? Well pitching, but I don't say that with much authority like I'd have to actually look into it like who? Like wayna was good Flaherty's good. He's gonna get a year older. Yeah, Flaherty was a beast Flaherty a year older, but that's a good thing for him. Yeah, it's a good thing. No, this was great season for Jack Flaherty For me it feels like a lefty impact bat like Matt Carpenter kind of fell off this year If you could split up Goldschmidt and Ozuna and I'm sure Tommy Edmunds gonna develop a little bit. You like to young Give me an impact lefty bat, but uh, yeah Cardinals Just a horrible series. I mean like dude like Michael has had some good outings, but Hudson Michael is Right You need better coming into a playoff game if you're the opposing team you see Hudson Maybe Hudson's young and can't get better But you see Hudson and Michael's you're kind of like yo, I if we're right we can tee off off these guys Yeah There's not a lot of fear factor. Okay Yeah, I Don't know like Harrison Bader's fast Right like he plays incredible defense can he learn how to hit a little more Yeah, I mean he'd have to really step up his hitting game because he he Played 128 games Jake It's a Bronxville, New York at 400 played appearances With like no offense 680 OPS 314 on base percentage great defensively, I mean They have some spots where it's like You can just go down your checklist of preparing for the game be like don't worry about that guy Don't worry about that guy. Don't worry about that guy. Okay focus on these four right, so There you go. Goodbye St. Louis. I hope you're the best. I don't hate you Let's take a quick break and then we'll talk about this new game for for the Yankees and the Astros All right, so we officially have a rainout which There's good and bad for both teams that comes from this. I believe I Don't know who it helps out more. I know the Yankees side of things better than the Astros So I'll start with my thoughts there For the Yankees this helps them it gives them Tanaka in game four Which allows them to have Tanaka in game seven That was not a possibility for them if the game was played tonight They would have had to gone bullpen game today Sevy game seven with Tanaka in game five So this is that's a perk the other perk is they use the bullpen a lot the Yankees do and They were gonna have to use them three days in a row This gives them a separation here of a day of rest But they may have to have they're gonna have four games in a row and that hurts the bullpen usage down the line with No, Britt, no travel day That's the Yankees side of things. I I It doesn't I think it's more good than bad, but we'll see And yeah, I want to I want to jump back to where you landed a little bit if you don't know After the rain out they're gonna the plan would be if this goes seven it would be four straight games on four straight days, right? Yeah, so it's two it will be two more in the Bronx two more in Houston if the series goes seven You know, well, we'll see if the Yankees are Houston somehow turn it on Yeah, it's it's interesting because Jimmy something that you and I know the Yankees made a very Conscientious conscientious effort to not use their bullpen during the season. No Yankees reliever has pitched three straight days in a row this season I believe they're the only team in baseball to do that So that becomes kind of wild for the Yankees because if the Yankees push this series Not only would some of these guys probably have to pitch three days in a row. They probably have to pitch four Which becomes really interesting You almost wonder if if the Yankees win game for tomorrow and the Astros go bullpen day or something like that You could see a world where both teams are kind of rooting for a blowout because I don't I don't think either of these teams Want either of these teams both teams are elite neither of them want to go down using, you know The seventh guy in their bullpen or I don't know like an exhausted whether it's Ozuna or Chapman Harris or Britain I think that's gonna be an interesting storyline Yeah, I don't know I'll be interested I feel like there's things we don't know right now That at the end of it after the rain out We're gonna look back and be like yo that rain out was important because of this this and this but right now I don't know what those are Yeah, be it'll be interesting for the Astros Carlos Tanton get healthy Yeah, it does help them out with that situation for the Astros I mean it helps them as well because they'd rather throw cranky than their fourth starter Earlier yeah, and that I brought this to Twitter because great grinky will now get the start I think what's interesting there is that the decision in Astros land and maybe it depends how grinky does You know there they would still have to do a bullpen day and It's do you do that or You can start Justin Verlander on short rest, but it would be short rest at the stadium And we just saw how that happened in Tampa. I think what Houston would do is you say hey We're gonna throw who we're gonna throw grinky in a bullpen day the first game And then we plan on going back to Houston with a fully rested Verlander and Cole That seems to make the most sense But yeah, I don't know if you're a Yankee fan you're sitting there you're you've You guys have heard me peacocking about Zach grinky. Maybe he shuts me the fuck up finally But yeah, if you're the Yankees you're licking your chops at grinky day and bullpen day Yeah, yeah, we'll see it's gonna be I mean Tanaka versus the Astros He shut them down multiple times now. He shut them down pretty bad last time To me, I'm a little nervous at that You know, do you believe in do what's gonna happen and then Like you said as a Yankee fan, hopefully the offense can find themselves against cranky in the bullpen day and take that into Verlander and Cole Not as easy as it sounds I don't know. I'm excited for a day of rest. Katie comes back tomorrow morning I have to make an airport run at like five in the morning and now we don't have to record tonight And we're not gonna have a talk in baseball tomorrow morning first time Since October 3rd, there won't be a talking baseball You don't want to you don't want me to record me just reading random baseball reference stats I mean that sounds so that's always good Mark Macklemore batted 282 in 1995 This is our 14th episode in a row guys and we thought we were gonna have to go until I Believe like maybe the 23rd Straight so this is our 14th episode in a row. So thanks you guys for hanging out with us Hopefully you miss us during our break tomorrow morning. I am very happy to get one and Jim You know, I uh, we don't we don't like to but we still have to If you haven't left a review leave a review write 14 straight days, right Jake sucks Right the Cardinals died in front of our eyes, right? Write something leave five stars. It does help us We don't beg for that shit. I thank you. We don't pay for that shit. I'll pay for that shit, man Find me begging for reviews. I'll tell you a boomer man up there That's an underrated character in TV show history the guy on the guy in King of the Hill that just mumbled everything It's good stuff Well, why is it what about Farmer Fran from Waterboy? Yeah, I mean another great character Memorandum Bobby Boucher God, yeah, perfect. Yeah, that's what the patreon viewers just got to see something All right, thank you guys very much. We will be back on Well, we're not gonna be back until Friday morning Yeah, that makes sense right today's Wednesday. I'm taking Thursday off Friday morning We'll be back on Friday morning to review the Yankees Astros game and preview the next game And then there's gonna be four in a row as the Nationals just sit and wait There was a lot going on the MV part three. I was uh Had a gummy when I was watching the Nationals game Jake sure when they won in their final speeches And I was having I was just getting a kick out of a lot of things. Yeah And I'll tell them to you first TBS just with the worst sports coverage. They can go Shit in the hat and wear it like what do you get you're not gonna you're not gonna show me The slow-mo celebrations. It's a staple. I Think they might be the first programming I don't know some historical to not show the slow-mo celebrations of every player on the field I can't think of a more iconic like that's what you roll roll the reactions. Go fuck yourself TBS ball heads Martinez had like heart problems, you know, you know like surgery and you know the heart attack and stuff and it was pretty sad and One point he goes these guys point saw as players these guys fixed my heart That's just imagining the doctors watching like at their house like what the fuck There's a 10-hour fucking situation like We're doctors getting overlooked all the time. I don't normally I don't normally let my fake Cali side out But those doctors are saying dude, you'd be hella dead We didn't help They did nothing you'd be the most dead I thought about tweeting it out, but uh It was like people can't people people can't handle jokes So and then the other thing was and I don't think anyone caught on to it Howie Kendrick gave like this whole speech about how you know, we all got this MV I tweeted this one out We all get the SM VP like this goes to all of us and I don't know who the reporter was and he just goes nice I saw that too. That gave me a good laugh. I think it was Brian Anderson who by the way, he has one of the Best Twitter handles. I believe his Twitter handle is at Brian Anderson PXP because he's play-by-play Pretty good Nice Cracked me up. This is all of ours. The whole team deserves this. We're a team. We're a unit Oh nice The the baby shark thing is actually kind of funnier Because you in your head you almost think the whole Gerardo para nationals baby shark thing You're like, oh, you know, that's that's a young guy silly thing No, that's like the ultimate of ultimate dad moves because he did it for his kid And when you think about all the old dad gnats like, oh, yeah, baby sharks gonna kill it man You gotta play that well Juan Soto and the other young guys are like, dude, you guys are loser Dude, I Love like they showed that video of the whole stadium doing baby shark and so many people are like this is cringe This is stupid.

I should say not just that. Yes, they're coming together and just being like Okay, I Understand. Yeah, how this song can drive someone crazy. Let's do it and Then dad outreach group. Yeah, Dave Martinez said that he sent par up there because he knew the stadium would go crazy with baby shark dude, it's It's one of the most underrated weapon left in the playoffs is being able to turn the whole emotion in a stadium By a pinch it at bat not result not mattering that's Unbelievable like I didn't really think of that. You know how they say like, you know a big dunk in basketball can get the crowd back into it And then like jumping every team needs to find a walk-up song That transforms the stadium Yeah, who was it on the a's that had careless whisper and they would all play fake saxophones and like Oh, I forget I'm googling it real quick Uh, it was reddick. It was josh reddick There you go Then and every he would play careless whisper and everyone would start doing it You need something like that that gets like it just unites the stadium immediately And by the way, if reddick were to pinch it in any houston game, you'd hear all the woos I think we might have an eccentric We might I might do a deep dive thesis type thing on eccentric corner outfielders because I Being in denver i've been involved with the the rockies popular rockies podcast out here and he's he's said a couple times that like Gerardo para not being on the team as that like every day 162 energy Wearing the silly glasses baby shark like the rockies missed that this year His stats don't look like much the analytics community doesn't look at gerardo para and see much right now But he's a huge part of that team Yeah, they say cameron maybin was like that before the Yankees like when he came to the clubhouse He was just a glue guy Yeah, all right If I actually wrote stuff I could write a killer corner outfielders article right now The glue guys of corner outfielders Maybin para reddick, who would the cardinals be jose martinez?
