Play podcast. It's our number one. It's What's kind of
play ball? Play Podcast? The Men Malor Show, and Happy
Tuesday to you. It's the fourteenth day of October. Is
my brother's birthday. Them make sure to call him later today.
So here in our number one. Who is most responsible
for Pat Murphy's Brewers losing Game one of the nlcs? Also,
(00:23):
how do you quantify this performance by the Dodgers Blake
Snell as he was lights out for eight innings before
things got very dicey in the ninth against the Dodger
bullpen in a sidebar? What is your level of concern
for the slumping show? Hey o'tani the face of baseball
batting a buck thirty three in the baseball postseason for
(00:47):
Los Angeles. We'll talk about all that and more. Settle in.
It's our number one. A strayings rue if you will
welcome in, not begaining of another night of the Ben
(01:07):
Mahlor Show.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
A very busy night on the red eye flight.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
We are in the air everywhere like teammates as we
sing Kumbaya around the fire coast to coast, border to
border in beyond on the mast and sharply powerful microphones
of fsre ammundating live from the buzzer. We always make
(01:33):
the buzzer beater. We never miss because radio stear the
mind from the world famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, as
approved by Sleazy Cheese who's not real happy right now
in the Green Bay Gobbler, and this portion of the
Ben Mahler Show on Fox made it possible, in part
by our friends at tire Raq.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
For over forty years, Tyraq.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
what and where they drive ship fast and free. And
that's right, unbelievable, Alf the alien ponter Ferg I say,
that's amazing and it is u ship fast and freeback
by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
mobile tire installation tire iraq dot com. The way tire
(02:15):
buying should be so a cornacopia of athletic competition to
critique and throw raspberries at And that's what we do
from the bully pulpit. Yes, we stand on the bully
pulpit and we look down on the sporting world from
the peak and we spit loogies at you.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
But where are we gonna be?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You know, you know where I'm going to begin right,
Is there any question where I'm going to be in
the Yes, we're going to start out in the Land
of the Dear.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
We'll start out in Wisconsin.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
It was oening night of the National League Championship Series
in the American League has already played two games, although
really just Seattle's played two games. The Bluejays really haven't
played one. But more on that later, but we'll start
with the National League. That was the late game, David
versus Goliath. That's the building, the build up, David versus Goliath,
and unlike the Bible game, one went to Goliath. So
(03:08):
the Dodgers Brinks truck pulled up there with all that
money and moo la, moo la, moo lah, the big
Blue and Green wrecking crew, the Green from the Money
the show Hey Otani. Dodgers drove into Milwaukee. I think
Otani was driving the Brinks truck. There a little playdate
with the brew crew, the Ragtag upstart. Don't belong here,
(03:30):
Milwaukee Brewers, Where are you watching? I don't know. There
was other stuff going on. We had two football games.
It was good night if you like just sitting on
your ass and getting hemorrhoids. Flipping around, so perhaps not
Blake Snell. Yes, that Blake Snell. We don't like him.
Blake Snell allowed one base runner in eight eight shutout innings,
(03:54):
and the LA bullpen leaked a lot of fluid. There
was a lot of fluid at the crime scene, and
by the skin on their chinny chin chin. The Dodgers
barely hold off and they opened up the NLCS with
a two to one win over the Milwaukee baseball team.
Snell struck out not one, not two, not three, not four,
(04:16):
not five, not six, not seven, not eight, not nine, ten, ten,
He walked none, ten strikeouts, no walks, and the game
still was in the balance as it was two to
nothing LA. They got an insurance run late and then
in the ninth, bottom of the ninth the Brewers scored
a run off. What I was told by Roberto the
(04:38):
bus driver and my friend already is big Dodger fans said, listen,
this Roki Sazaki unhittable. This guy is so good, he's amazing. Well,
he wasn't in this game, and he didn't even make
it out of the inning. Sazaki was touched up and
the bases were loaded. Blake Trining came in in the
(04:59):
middle of all and the Brewers bases loaded Bryce Terrain
at the plate to end the game and saw Wingbarra
saw Wing Barra. He struck out. So Game two, quick turnaround,
Game two, best of seven, Best of seven NLCS will
be right back at it on Tuesday night. Yoshinobu Yamamoto
(05:22):
on the mound for the Dodgers. He's good against Freddie Peralta.
He's also good a couple of All Stars. That is
the pitching matchup there, But the better story is in
the losing locker room. So that is where we are
going to go. And let us discuss the question for
the esteem panel who is most responsible for Pat Murphy's
(05:43):
Brewers losing game number one of the NLCS. So my thought,
I've got military grade body armor, meat ball, surgery, and
pigeon and we will combine all of these things together
and we are going to make some delicious cheese curds,
because even when the Brewers don't play well, the cheese
(06:05):
curds taste delicious, absolutely delicious. So my first thought on this,
what a gut punch for the brew Cery. Now, you know,
I would like to see the Dodgers win, but I
have course, from a neutral observer, from the bully pulpit here.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
But the story here, as we.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Spin the Wisconsin cheese wheel of regret, and there's lots
of regret to go around, it's yes, round and round
the cheese will goes round and round and round.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Ams stop, big Chase, Big Chase.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
It's easy to sit here and just do the lazy things. Oh,
you know, let's just tip the old cheesehead cap to
Blake Snell if you're the Brewers, and say, wow, he
went full Snell, his cheesy nickname and shoved it down
your throat. He shoved it down your throat. It's easy
to say that that's the lazy river approach. We don't
do lazy. Other people do lazy. We're not doing lazy.
(06:53):
We're not good, but we're not lazy.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
And so, as a talk show host looking at this objectively,
we know the story for Milwaukee is way uglier.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Then just say, man, Blake Snow was great.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
You know what wonderful?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
What if I told you the Milwaukee Brewers in Game
one of the National League Championship Series actually executed their
game plan.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
To a t.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
They did well. They lost the game what are you
an idiot?
Speaker 4 (07:19):
You're a moron.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
That's why you're on overnights. Shot up. You lose there.
Let me explain, dummy, Let me explain.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Okay, So the whole plan for the Brewers, they knew
they were not going to get to Blake Snow. Now,
they would have liked to have not been as a
kneemic as they were. But the plan was much like
the Philadelphia Filies and everyone that plays the Dodgers, you.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Want it close and get to the bullpen late.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
You want a close game, get to the bullpen late,
have an opportunity against the bullpen. So the Brewers, they
didn't get blown out. It wasn't seven nothing going to
the bottom of the night, didning. It was a two
run game. It should have been a one run game.
But it was a two run game going to the
ninth bottom of the night. So they did what they wanted.
They got into the bullpen, close game. They they dragged
this thing into the suck bag Dodger bullpen. You realize
(08:04):
when Dave Roberts when he goes to the bullpen, now
I know these are not really his decisions. And the
nerds decide who pitches and who doesn't pitches, but Dave
Roberts when you go to the bullpen, the call to
the bullpen, Okay, it's like he's reaching into.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
A bucket with dark water and it's filled.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
With piranhas and razor blades, bare handed, blindfolded. That's the
call to the bullpen for the Dodgers. And this is
exactly where the Brewers wanted to be. They had the
game where they wanted to be, and they still blew it.
That Brewers still blow it. Milwaukee actually had the Dodgers
right where they wanted them again. They had the tying
run on third, the winning run on second base, bottom
(08:42):
of the ninth inning. The crowd's going bananas. And what
happens the moment too big. You screwed the thing up
at the end there, bottom of the ninth and now
the bases were lowered by this point. The very wobbly,
the very very wide. You hear that wobbly table. You
can go to a restaurant sometimes the kind of wobbley
doesn't that suck?
Speaker 5 (09:01):
God?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
That's a yes?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Can I change tables? The tables? What Blake trining is
the wobbly table. So he comes in on the mound
and he throws it on just a bit inside, just
a little bit is a pitch that literally had a
bullseye on Bryce Terrain of the Brewers.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
It would have either hit him in the knee or
the lower leg.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
The ball was about to give the man a tattoo
in front of thousands of people in Wisconsin, right there
on the leg. And free run batted in tie game.
And even if you don't score another run the rest
of the game, it's all slopped from the Dodger bullpen
and those guys blow. You would have had an advantage.
It would have been the chaos situation. And instead Bryce
(09:44):
Terrain gets on a pogo stick and jumps out of
the way. It's like he's in dodgeball in Jim class.
He gets out of the way there and that was it.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
That was it.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
One pitch later, good afternoon, good evening, and good night,
strike three swinging about it. He also swung on a
pitch out of the right zone. So that is it.
The Brewers who were given a gift the Dodgers wanted
to give them that game. They did not want that game.
They did not want that game to dodge. They said,
we want you to have the game Milwaukee. The door
(10:15):
was WI open, I wide open. And instead instead of
charging through it like some beer soaked dudes that smell
like broughtwurst right there in Milwaukee, what happened? They politely
stepped back. They said, listen, we know our place in
the baseball universe. We don't want the game. You take
(10:36):
the game. And the Dodger said, okay, we wanted to
give it you, but you don't want it.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Okay, we'll take it. That's it.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
And Pat Murphy's scouting report for game number two is
pretty simple here.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
That it needs the need for the Brewers.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
You can have the whiteboard in the clubhouse where they
talk about points of emphasis and all that stuff. So
if the bases are loaded and the ball's coming at you,
wear it. I am wear it like you're at fashion
Week in Manhattan.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Wear it.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Okay, you're not made out of glass. You're not going
to shatter if you get hit by a pitch.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Do not flinch. Do not flinch. Take one for the team.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
In fact, I recommend that you imagine yourself as a
human pinata. And what they need to go and do
is get some military grade body armor. Slap the Brewer's
logo on it and pass it out to everyone that
goes up the home plate. That's how the underdog team
gets it done. A team that does not have the
(11:39):
firepower just don't flinch. Don't flinch. Take one for the team.
And legendary playoff moments don't come from hopping like you're
on a pogo stick.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Away.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
You don't want to look like a scared kangaroo with
ossiwas in Western Australia. Now the man of the hour
that could have should have tied the game, and the
Night Meets still be playing right now. Bryce Terring said, well,
it's just it's it's nature that took its course. Take aless,
you know, it's it sucks. It is, it is what
it is. It is what it is natural reaction to
(12:11):
kind of get out of the way. And there's a lot.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I mean, there's nothing I could do.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
I can't go back. And then I was looking up
at the.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
Top of the zone for the sinker sweeper that he's
throwing and he threw remineforce him took off.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
So yeah, it is what it is. Yeah, it is
what it is. You sucked any time you cannot suck. Okay,
I know you can't go back.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
And do it. But our job is to critic you.
We're the critic.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
We are in the upper balcony and we are right
now throwing paper planes that we're shooting them down your direction.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
Uh. Meanwhile, as for the Dawyers who tried.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
To give the game away but still won, it is
all about plate Snow. Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Now.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said of that performance by Blake Snow,
it was the most dominant performance he's seen. He's been
in Milwaukee for like a decade, I believe close to it,
if not a decade, not all his manager, but his
coach and whatnot. Freddie Freeman was licking the toes of
Blake Snell. He said it was a masterpiece. So the
question is, how do you quantify the dominant performance in
(13:19):
game number one of the NLCS by Blake Snell of
the Doyers. So this is peak twenty five Dodgers if
you want to a preview, a glimpse the Dodgers in
a nutshell game one of the NLCS. It was smooth jazz,
keeping your jazz commercial free right there right for eight innings,
(13:41):
and then heavy metal, heavy metal wash pit in the
ninth fitting. It was a white knuckle teeth grinding, no
fingernails left hold on for dear life situation. It was
a roller coaster ride. The Big Blue Wrecking Crew almost
wrecked the entire game right there, and their many nights. Well,
(14:01):
you're watching what I'm told h about the all time
great teams. Oh my god, this roster's amazing, and you're
watching through your fingers, right, you're watching through your fingers
like this, and you're like, oh my god. This is
like a horror movie, is what you're doing. But Blake
Snell was surgical. It doesn't mean we like him, but
he was surgically.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Was good.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Picasso in Spikes and all that continues to be a
mortal enemy of this show. We remember, we have very
good memories here. The timeless quotes. We were on the
air during the pandemic back in twenty twenty. I ain't
playing as I got mine, Bro. Well he got his, uh,
and Bro, I'm risking my life.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Yeah, but I think he's okay. Might have died a
couple times on the mountain, but he survived. So it's
very nice that Blake can miss three months of work. Bro,
I'm risking my light.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
That's right, bro.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Three months sabbatical during the season while everyone else is playing.
And I was selling the great Mike harmon my colleague
here at Fox Sports. Ready we were discussing you think
about the Dodgers is it's kind of like you don't
even pay attention. They're ruining the regular scene, like the
NBA players have ruined the regular season in pro bouncy ball,
Like we don't even pay attention to the NBA regular
(15:06):
season because the players don't really care. The Dodgers don't
really care about the regular season. Well, they won all
these games. There were twelve games under where the expectation
was the gambling market, and they had guys that could
have pitched, but they just wanted to be cautious, ount
an abundance of caution and all that. They didn't really
take it that seriously. And yet here we are, there
(15:27):
are seven wins away from winning another World Series. And
so I guess the lesson is it we should not
pay much attention at all to regular season baseball.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
But again, back to play stell.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
So if you're gonna skip three months, right, three months, fine,
you better be like a Bond villain in October. And
he has been, and Snow was out there. He was
a surgeon, as we said, the Brewers were the patient there,
and it was a little meatball surgery. The scalpel was
very sharp, very very sharp there. Now we would have
(15:58):
left Blake Snell, and I mean, what are you saving
him for? He's just gonna miss four months of next
season anyway, so you might as well pitch him to
one hundred and twenty pitches.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
He threw one hundred and three.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
It's the playoffs, and that was his night, right, This
is the way I was talking about in modern baseball,
you can't have your night fully because because of the
analytics and all that stuff. But this was his night.
And Dave Roberts goes to the bullpen. It's not really
a strategy when the Dodgers go to the bullpen. It
is playing a Russian roulette. But there are five bullets
in the chamber. So that's not a great The odds
(16:30):
aren't really in your favor there. The odds aren't great
for you when you're playing that way. Roki Sazaki, who
had been nails right y'all, told me, oh, this guy's amazing,
and well, let's just say he wasn't exactly. Mariano Rivera
in Game one of the National League Championship Series. So
had a hit, he gave up a couple of walks,
base runners panic in the streets, and so that's October.
(16:53):
It's not supposed to be easy, they tell us. All right,
so you've got that soft underbelt, and any team that
wins championship, the same thing applies. You have to overcome
your kryptonite. For the Dodgers, it continues to be their
bullpen and exposed nerves. Yet again for the Dodgers, and
a lot of people that like the team have ulcers
watching the team play. They survive and so they advance.
(17:16):
All right, Now, last word, and this is something that
people aren't really talking about. You know, the LA media
is soft. There was one guy. I've been in LA
a long time. There's one guy in LA media that
had balls. He's dead TJ.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Simers.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Everyone else is a total fanboy in the LA media.
So what is your level of concern for the obviously
slumping show. Hey, oh Tani, what is your level of
good So now we don't particularly care what his dominance
was in the regular season, right, we just mentioned the
Dodgers in the regular season. It's just kind of a
(17:50):
it's more of a nuisance than anything. The way they
approach the regular season and Otani was great. He's most
likely going to win another MVP and the fifty five
home runs, the double Nickels for home runs, and three
MVP trophies that he's collected.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
There.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
I'm sure as sure as hell, don't care about the
seven hundred million dollar country.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
All of that is prologued.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
It does not matter here right now in this Mammy
Sho hal Tani is say it with me now, non factor.
He's a non factor for the Dodger and they're still winning.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
They're still winning.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
The guy's batting a buck thirty three, which I think
is a highway somewhere. A buck thirty three in October.
Buck thirty three for Otani in October. And you're supposed
to be the man, and that's what you're doing in
the face of the sport and all that. Right now,
he's not. You know, he's a birdy. He's a stool pitching,
(18:48):
is what he is. He's a decoy in the postseason
right now, Otani is a decoy. Didn't play well in
the World Series last year, not playing well this year,
and teams are still walking him out of an abundance
of respect because of his aura, they're still walking show. Hey,
Altani's reputation precedes him and all that. But when they
actually pitched to Otani, there's a hole in his swing.
(19:12):
In fact, I went back and I looked. I watched
on the on the rebroadcast of the clips online, and
the hole in Otani's swing is actually the size of
a school bus that Roberto the bus driver could drive through.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
It's that big a hole, pretty big, pretty big hole there.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
He looks lost in some of these at bats, didn't
he if you watch the game, or maybe a blind
hurt it, but he just looked lost.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
And it's not the Otani that we see from April
until September. This is different Otani. And because the Dodgers
are winning, he looks mortal, right, he looks mortal, but
they're winning, and if they stumble, they lose game two here, uh,
or you lose a couple of games. This the story
becomes a def con one for the talk shows. And
(19:56):
you've already got people say, well, what's going on here?
Like Otani's not like one thirty three. The broadcasters they
give him a bubble bath. They give him, the Maney
and the Petty on the TV broadcast, they love him
and playoff baseball exposing those wards. He's very similar to
Barry Bonds, a lot of home runs, and Bonds was
(20:16):
a not known for being very good in the postseason,
and he's getting that October treatment here, where there's a
lot of intentional walks, there's nibbling around the zone, and
and the Dodgers keep winning, and so this is on
the back burner. I would be clear, this is on
the back burner here. But the Malar level of concern,
which is the only measurement that matters, the Mallar level
(20:39):
of concern, is we're at the medium right now in
the stove. We're not going all the way up to
full burn. We're at the medium there, and we will
at a moment's notice go full blown panic, full blown
panic when the Dodgers start losing some of these games
because of Tony's not hitting it one thirty three batting average.
(21:00):
We're three rounds, one game into the third round, but
we're three rounds into the playoffs there, and the conversation
will flip from generational superstar.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
To the ghost of October. It is the Ben Maler Show.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
If you want to comment on any of that, you
can join us right now say hello. Lines are open
and the easiest time to get in now. It gets
progressively harder as we go through the overnight hours. You
can jump online right now and talk some baseball, not
just the Dodger game, talking about the Mariners off to

last team to reach the World Series. No, everyone else
(21:33):
been to the World Series but not the Seattle Mariners
two wins away from that, and a couple of Monday
night games the Buffalo Bills all of a sudden suck
they lost to a bat Atlanta team and the Washington
Commanders gave a game to the Chicago Bear. So some

Things they're, Good, yeah they're. Good i'm glad The dodgers,
won of, course but it's ugly and uh and it's
it's really ugly and you you kind of touched on. It,
OH toni is a math. Idol. Uh and and the
other guy that's really a mess As pae the center.
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Fielder oh he's, yeah he's so but he but, YEAH
i mean he has no record of dominants in the
playoffs or he's not THE i could have goofed on,
him but it you, Know tony's the big obviously the big.
Star But pie is he's in the, lineup AND i
know they got rid of confordo that he's not playing
in the, playoffs thank, god because he's. Terrible But pies
(29:47):
is horrific as. Well, uh he's betting oh thirty, Seven.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Yeah oh thirty. Seven good fun, tonight that's.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
Good, yeah that's the funniest thing, Though. Mike remember when
they when they beat the, yeah The. Phillies because the
pitcher for The phillies fed up at the end of
the game through the, ball they Interviewed paz on THE
tnt postgame Or turner post game because they had to interview.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Somebody he grounded out to the pitcher and they interviewed.
Him as the start of the. Game it was so.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
Stipid dodgers should have won this game, tonight eight or
nine or ten to. Nothing The dodgers are obviously. Superior you.
Know mondsey always says that we're not playing against, them
we're playing against. Us and you said it. Earlier they
did everything they could to lose this. Game they did
everything they could to lose that game last. WEEK i
(30:36):
don't Understand Dave. Roberts he doesn't coach the players in
real time and he doesn't help them. Adjust And Pa
hayes has been swinging the same way for the last ten.
Days he's swinging up at the. Ball he's. SCOOPING i
played this. Game they aren't telling him to hit the
top half of the. Ball Pete ROSE i was listening
(30:58):
to him talking about it. Recently he needs to Play
pepper every day until he hit the top half of the.
Ball he's missing. Everything and same With. Otani otani has
gotten so bunched up by being in the playoffs that
he's not calm up. There he's wanting to be a super.
Superstar we don't need him to be. That we need
him to be the threat he. Is he's getting. Walk
(31:18):
he hit the Ball welton at that one, time but
he is so bunched, up And Dave roberts doesn't coach
them as. Athletes he coaches him much more. Technically and
it drives me crazy because he won last, year thank,
god and four years. Ago but other than, that HE'S
i was talking To Steve garvey And mannimoto a couple
of years ago at The. Games they, said what the
(31:38):
hell is he doing Coach steve guys in real time
during the.
Speaker 1 (31:42):
GAME i hear, you, Well, mike that's the ear we're, in, Though,
mike you know, that so maybe part of.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
The fan because you know how good these guys, are
and they look like they're making the same mistakes over
and over and over. Again and you, Know monthy's pretty
good about, it justin. Himself mookie, is but these guys
are tany's knowing what he did last, year he didn't
do very much in the playoffs last, year and he
(32:09):
And panes is horrible. Here and then this Guy hernandez The,
oscars he has made more mistakes in the, field and
on the basis they need to put him in sprint
training and have the shed twenty pounds so he could.
Run he's a fat little dude out there like a loves.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
ONE i know it's not, nice but you know what
kind of mean it. Is but the great thing, is
you know how this, Works. Mike if they do ultimately
win The World, series no matter how ugly it, is
people forget about all. This they're only going to remember
that they won The World. Series they're not gonna remember
like last year The dodgers he hadn't been For Walker
(32:50):
buelder pitching out of his. Mind and then of course
this year he sucked but with these other, teams but
he was great in the playoffs in The World. Series without,
that they wouldn't won last. Year but people forget about
you just remember the fact who. Won that's.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
It you remember the.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Ending all, right call me, Anytime, Mike thank. You there's
the great mic, there uh checking. In let's go to,
uh who do we? Have let's go To. Michael who's
next in THE? Oc it is The Ben Maler show On.
Fox chuck some nlcs here as we yap the night?
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Away what's going?
Speaker 4 (33:17):
On, Yeah i'm pumped on The dodger way And i'll
take them anyway we can get, them SO.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
I can't be too.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
Upset you always want to see them play their best
and at the end of the day they got to
w we play. Tomorrow BUT i just kind of, SAY
i disagree with your characterization that The dodgers are the
goliath in this match. Up do we forget that The
brewers were six and oh this, season, wife they're like
wipe them clean at home In, milwaukee and even going
(33:49):
back to last year there eight.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
No, no come, On Mike, michael come, on you don't
really Believe come, on are you trying to sell that The,
dodgers like The brewers are the superior in terms of
the star power and the billboard The brewers are ahead
of the Dodg because that's what this is. About it's
you're trying to sell to people that aren't hardcore baseball. Fans.
(34:14):
Uh and it's Like Pat, MURPHY i was gonna USE
i use this as a, tease And i'll pay it
off right, Now Pat, murphy The brewers. Manager All, Right
Pat murphy came out and said before the, game he
said that most of The dodger players couldn't name eight
guys on The milwaukee, roster And i'll bet you most
casual baseball fans couldn't name eight guys on The Milwaukee brewers.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
Roster they're.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Nameless they're, FACELESS i.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
Understand but they're the best team in THE nf the
hen al, yea and.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
They're they're they're hosting this, series Like yellick, said.
Speaker 4 (34:45):
Oh we almost stole, one but they're.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Not but it doesn't. Matter listen the.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Records, fine but The dodgers are the, stars they're the,
Ones they're The goliath in the terms of the. Payroll
it's all based On and they're people, saying if The
dodgers lose in this, series there will not be a
work stoppage In. BAY i gotta let you, Go, michael
but because of the. Clock but they, say, hey if
The dodgers win this THAT i did lose to The,
brewers this will most likely eliminate works that they're talking
(35:12):
about having a work stoppage in twenty twenty seven labor
dispute because of the haves and the have, nots and
The brewers on one of the have. Nots and if
they somehow beat The. Dodgers and the argument, is, well
The brewers prove that you don't have to have the
biggest payroll to beat The dodgers at big, market big
money team like.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
That but come, ON i MEAN i.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Get that you love The dodgers and you're trying to
make it seem like The brewers are the better.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Team but my, god, anyway it is The Ben Mahlor.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Show will take your calls at eight seven seven. NIGHT
i like That Pat. Murphy by the, way how about
the Pod padres whacked another manager this. Week we'll talk
more about that, later but The padres Had Pat murphy
was IN i think it an interim, manager And Dave,
roberts Although i'm not a big Dead roberts, fan but
they were both In San diego and both spent like
a minute there and then left time now for the
(36:00):
who AM? I? Game this is where we tend to
be somebody else as we call it the who AM? I?
Game so The. Dodgers Blake snell the first pitcher in
postseason history to have multiple outings of six plus innings
with one or no hits allowed in a single. Postseason
the only other pitchers with two such outings in a
postseason career Are Zach, Wheeler Mac, schurzer and me. Again
(36:23):
Blake snell first pitcher in postseason history of multiple outings
of six plus innings and one or no hits allowed
in a single. Postseason the only other pitchers with two
such outings in a postseason career Are Zach, Wheeler Max
scherzer and.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Me who AM? I that's the.
Speaker 1 (36:41):
Question if you know the, answer hit me up ON

Penny but support the circus as the tent never. Closes oh, yes,
(37:59):
yes this time now for the who AM? I? Game
this is where we pretend to be somebody? Else thus

So here in our number one. Who is most responsible
for Pat Murphy's Brewers losing Game one of the nlcs? Also,
(00:23):
how do you quantify this performance by the Dodgers Blake
Snell as he was lights out for eight innings before
things got very dicey in the ninth against the Dodger
bullpen in a sidebar? What is your level of concern
for the slumping show? Hey o'tani the face of baseball
batting a buck thirty three in the baseball postseason for
(00:47):
Los Angeles. We'll talk about all that and more. Settle in.
It's our number one. A strayings rue if you will
welcome in, not begaining of another night of the Ben
(01:07):
Mahlor Show.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
A very busy night on the red eye flight.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
We are in the air everywhere like teammates as we
sing Kumbaya around the fire coast to coast, border to
border in beyond on the mast and sharply powerful microphones
of fsre ammundating live from the buzzer. We always make
(01:33):
the buzzer beater. We never miss because radio stear the
mind from the world famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, as
approved by Sleazy Cheese who's not real happy right now
in the Green Bay Gobbler, and this portion of the
Ben Mahler Show on Fox made it possible, in part
by our friends at tire Raq.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
For over forty years, Tyraq.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
what and where they drive ship fast and free. And
that's right, unbelievable, Alf the alien ponter Ferg I say,
that's amazing and it is u ship fast and freeback
by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
mobile tire installation tire iraq dot com. The way tire
(02:15):
buying should be so a cornacopia of athletic competition to
critique and throw raspberries at And that's what we do
from the bully pulpit. Yes, we stand on the bully
pulpit and we look down on the sporting world from
the peak and we spit loogies at you.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
But where are we gonna be?
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You know, you know where I'm going to begin right,
Is there any question where I'm going to be in
the Yes, we're going to start out in the Land
of the Dear.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
We'll start out in Wisconsin.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
It was oening night of the National League Championship Series
in the American League has already played two games, although
really just Seattle's played two games. The Bluejays really haven't
played one. But more on that later, but we'll start
with the National League. That was the late game, David
versus Goliath. That's the building, the build up, David versus Goliath,
and unlike the Bible game, one went to Goliath. So
(03:08):
the Dodgers Brinks truck pulled up there with all that
money and moo la, moo la, moo lah, the big
Blue and Green wrecking crew, the Green from the Money
the show Hey Otani. Dodgers drove into Milwaukee. I think
Otani was driving the Brinks truck. There a little playdate
with the brew crew, the Ragtag upstart. Don't belong here,
(03:30):
Milwaukee Brewers, Where are you watching? I don't know. There
was other stuff going on. We had two football games.
It was good night if you like just sitting on
your ass and getting hemorrhoids. Flipping around, so perhaps not
Blake Snell. Yes, that Blake Snell. We don't like him.
Blake Snell allowed one base runner in eight eight shutout innings,
(03:54):
and the LA bullpen leaked a lot of fluid. There
was a lot of fluid at the crime scene, and
by the skin on their chinny chin chin. The Dodgers
barely hold off and they opened up the NLCS with
a two to one win over the Milwaukee baseball team.
Snell struck out not one, not two, not three, not four,
(04:16):
not five, not six, not seven, not eight, not nine, ten, ten,
He walked none, ten strikeouts, no walks, and the game
still was in the balance as it was two to
nothing LA. They got an insurance run late and then
in the ninth, bottom of the ninth the Brewers scored
a run off. What I was told by Roberto the
(04:38):
bus driver and my friend already is big Dodger fans said, listen,
this Roki Sazaki unhittable. This guy is so good, he's amazing. Well,
he wasn't in this game, and he didn't even make
it out of the inning. Sazaki was touched up and
the bases were loaded. Blake Trining came in in the
(04:59):
middle of all and the Brewers bases loaded Bryce Terrain
at the plate to end the game and saw Wingbarra
saw Wing Barra. He struck out. So Game two, quick turnaround,
Game two, best of seven, Best of seven NLCS will
be right back at it on Tuesday night. Yoshinobu Yamamoto
(05:22):
on the mound for the Dodgers. He's good against Freddie Peralta.
He's also good a couple of All Stars. That is
the pitching matchup there, But the better story is in
the losing locker room. So that is where we are
going to go. And let us discuss the question for
the esteem panel who is most responsible for Pat Murphy's
(05:43):
Brewers losing game number one of the NLCS. So my thought,
I've got military grade body armor, meat ball, surgery, and
pigeon and we will combine all of these things together
and we are going to make some delicious cheese curds,
because even when the Brewers don't play well, the cheese
(06:05):
curds taste delicious, absolutely delicious. So my first thought on this,
what a gut punch for the brew Cery. Now, you know,
I would like to see the Dodgers win, but I
have course, from a neutral observer, from the bully pulpit here.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
But the story here, as we.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Spin the Wisconsin cheese wheel of regret, and there's lots
of regret to go around, it's yes, round and round
the cheese will goes round and round and round.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Ams stop, big Chase, Big Chase.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
It's easy to sit here and just do the lazy things. Oh,
you know, let's just tip the old cheesehead cap to
Blake Snell if you're the Brewers, and say, wow, he
went full Snell, his cheesy nickname and shoved it down
your throat. He shoved it down your throat. It's easy
to say that that's the lazy river approach. We don't
do lazy. Other people do lazy. We're not doing lazy.
(06:53):
We're not good, but we're not lazy.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
And so, as a talk show host looking at this objectively,
we know the story for Milwaukee is way uglier.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
Then just say, man, Blake Snow was great.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
You know what wonderful?
Speaker 1 (07:07):
What if I told you the Milwaukee Brewers in Game
one of the National League Championship Series actually executed their
game plan.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
To a t.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
They did well. They lost the game what are you
an idiot?
Speaker 4 (07:19):
You're a moron.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
That's why you're on overnights. Shot up. You lose there.
Let me explain, dummy, Let me explain.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Okay, So the whole plan for the Brewers, they knew
they were not going to get to Blake Snow. Now,
they would have liked to have not been as a
kneemic as they were. But the plan was much like
the Philadelphia Filies and everyone that plays the Dodgers, you.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Want it close and get to the bullpen late.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
You want a close game, get to the bullpen late,
have an opportunity against the bullpen. So the Brewers, they
didn't get blown out. It wasn't seven nothing going to
the bottom of the night, didning. It was a two
run game. It should have been a one run game.
But it was a two run game going to the
ninth bottom of the night. So they did what they wanted.
They got into the bullpen, close game. They they dragged
this thing into the suck bag Dodger bullpen. You realize
(08:04):
when Dave Roberts when he goes to the bullpen, now
I know these are not really his decisions. And the
nerds decide who pitches and who doesn't pitches, but Dave
Roberts when you go to the bullpen, the call to
the bullpen, Okay, it's like he's reaching into.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
A bucket with dark water and it's filled.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
With piranhas and razor blades, bare handed, blindfolded. That's the
call to the bullpen for the Dodgers. And this is
exactly where the Brewers wanted to be. They had the
game where they wanted to be, and they still blew it.
That Brewers still blow it. Milwaukee actually had the Dodgers
right where they wanted them again. They had the tying
run on third, the winning run on second base, bottom
(08:42):
of the ninth inning. The crowd's going bananas. And what
happens the moment too big. You screwed the thing up
at the end there, bottom of the ninth and now
the bases were lowered by this point. The very wobbly,
the very very wide. You hear that wobbly table. You
can go to a restaurant sometimes the kind of wobbley
doesn't that suck?
Speaker 5 (09:01):
God?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
That's a yes?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Can I change tables? The tables? What Blake trining is
the wobbly table. So he comes in on the mound
and he throws it on just a bit inside, just
a little bit is a pitch that literally had a
bullseye on Bryce Terrain of the Brewers.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
It would have either hit him in the knee or
the lower leg.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
The ball was about to give the man a tattoo
in front of thousands of people in Wisconsin, right there
on the leg. And free run batted in tie game.
And even if you don't score another run the rest
of the game, it's all slopped from the Dodger bullpen
and those guys blow. You would have had an advantage.
It would have been the chaos situation. And instead Bryce
(09:44):
Terrain gets on a pogo stick and jumps out of
the way. It's like he's in dodgeball in Jim class.
He gets out of the way there and that was it.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
That was it.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
One pitch later, good afternoon, good evening, and good night,
strike three swinging about it. He also swung on a
pitch out of the right zone. So that is it.
The Brewers who were given a gift the Dodgers wanted
to give them that game. They did not want that game.
They did not want that game to dodge. They said,
we want you to have the game Milwaukee. The door
(10:15):
was WI open, I wide open. And instead instead of
charging through it like some beer soaked dudes that smell
like broughtwurst right there in Milwaukee, what happened? They politely
stepped back. They said, listen, we know our place in
the baseball universe. We don't want the game. You take
(10:36):
the game. And the Dodger said, okay, we wanted to
give it you, but you don't want it.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Okay, we'll take it. That's it.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
And Pat Murphy's scouting report for game number two is
pretty simple here.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
That it needs the need for the Brewers.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
You can have the whiteboard in the clubhouse where they
talk about points of emphasis and all that stuff. So
if the bases are loaded and the ball's coming at you,
wear it. I am wear it like you're at fashion
Week in Manhattan.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Wear it.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Okay, you're not made out of glass. You're not going
to shatter if you get hit by a pitch.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Do not flinch. Do not flinch. Take one for the team.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
In fact, I recommend that you imagine yourself as a
human pinata. And what they need to go and do
is get some military grade body armor. Slap the Brewer's
logo on it and pass it out to everyone that
goes up the home plate. That's how the underdog team
gets it done. A team that does not have the
(11:39):
firepower just don't flinch. Don't flinch. Take one for the team.
And legendary playoff moments don't come from hopping like you're
on a pogo stick.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Away.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
You don't want to look like a scared kangaroo with
ossiwas in Western Australia. Now the man of the hour
that could have should have tied the game, and the
Night Meets still be playing right now. Bryce Terring said, well,
it's just it's it's nature that took its course. Take aless,
you know, it's it sucks. It is, it is what
it is. It is what it is natural reaction to
(12:11):
kind of get out of the way. And there's a lot.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
I mean, there's nothing I could do.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
I can't go back. And then I was looking up
at the.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
Top of the zone for the sinker sweeper that he's
throwing and he threw remineforce him took off.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
So yeah, it is what it is. Yeah, it is
what it is. You sucked any time you cannot suck. Okay,
I know you can't go back.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
And do it. But our job is to critic you.
We're the critic.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
We are in the upper balcony and we are right
now throwing paper planes that we're shooting them down your direction.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
Uh. Meanwhile, as for the Dawyers who tried.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
To give the game away but still won, it is
all about plate Snow. Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Now.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said of that performance by Blake Snow,
it was the most dominant performance he's seen. He's been
in Milwaukee for like a decade, I believe close to it,
if not a decade, not all his manager, but his
coach and whatnot. Freddie Freeman was licking the toes of
Blake Snell. He said it was a masterpiece. So the
question is, how do you quantify the dominant performance in
(13:19):
game number one of the NLCS by Blake Snell of
the Doyers. So this is peak twenty five Dodgers if
you want to a preview, a glimpse the Dodgers in
a nutshell game one of the NLCS. It was smooth jazz,
keeping your jazz commercial free right there right for eight innings,
(13:41):
and then heavy metal, heavy metal wash pit in the
ninth fitting. It was a white knuckle teeth grinding, no
fingernails left hold on for dear life situation. It was
a roller coaster ride. The Big Blue Wrecking Crew almost
wrecked the entire game right there, and their many nights. Well,
(14:01):
you're watching what I'm told h about the all time
great teams. Oh my god, this roster's amazing, and you're
watching through your fingers, right, you're watching through your fingers
like this, and you're like, oh my god. This is
like a horror movie, is what you're doing. But Blake
Snell was surgical. It doesn't mean we like him, but
he was surgically.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Was good.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Picasso in Spikes and all that continues to be a
mortal enemy of this show. We remember, we have very
good memories here. The timeless quotes. We were on the
air during the pandemic back in twenty twenty. I ain't
playing as I got mine, Bro. Well he got his, uh,
and Bro, I'm risking my life.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Bro.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Yeah, but I think he's okay. Might have died a
couple times on the mountain, but he survived. So it's
very nice that Blake can miss three months of work. Bro,
I'm risking my light.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
That's right, bro.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Three months sabbatical during the season while everyone else is playing.
And I was selling the great Mike harmon my colleague
here at Fox Sports. Ready we were discussing you think
about the Dodgers is it's kind of like you don't
even pay attention. They're ruining the regular scene, like the
NBA players have ruined the regular season in pro bouncy ball,
Like we don't even pay attention to the NBA regular
(15:06):
season because the players don't really care. The Dodgers don't
really care about the regular season. Well, they won all
these games. There were twelve games under where the expectation
was the gambling market, and they had guys that could
have pitched, but they just wanted to be cautious, ount
an abundance of caution and all that. They didn't really
take it that seriously. And yet here we are, there
(15:27):
are seven wins away from winning another World Series. And
so I guess the lesson is it we should not
pay much attention at all to regular season baseball.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
But again, back to play stell.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
So if you're gonna skip three months, right, three months, fine,
you better be like a Bond villain in October. And
he has been, and Snow was out there. He was
a surgeon, as we said, the Brewers were the patient there,
and it was a little meatball surgery. The scalpel was
very sharp, very very sharp there. Now we would have
(15:58):
left Blake Snell, and I mean, what are you saving
him for? He's just gonna miss four months of next
season anyway, so you might as well pitch him to
one hundred and twenty pitches.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
He threw one hundred and three.
Speaker 1 (16:07):
It's the playoffs, and that was his night, right, This
is the way I was talking about in modern baseball,
you can't have your night fully because because of the
analytics and all that stuff. But this was his night.
And Dave Roberts goes to the bullpen. It's not really
a strategy when the Dodgers go to the bullpen. It
is playing a Russian roulette. But there are five bullets
in the chamber. So that's not a great The odds
(16:30):
aren't really in your favor there. The odds aren't great
for you when you're playing that way. Roki Sazaki, who
had been nails right y'all, told me, oh, this guy's amazing,
and well, let's just say he wasn't exactly. Mariano Rivera
in Game one of the National League Championship Series. So
had a hit, he gave up a couple of walks,
base runners panic in the streets, and so that's October.
(16:53):
It's not supposed to be easy, they tell us. All right,
so you've got that soft underbelt, and any team that
wins championship, the same thing applies. You have to overcome
your kryptonite. For the Dodgers, it continues to be their
bullpen and exposed nerves. Yet again for the Dodgers, and
a lot of people that like the team have ulcers
watching the team play. They survive and so they advance.
(17:16):
All right, Now, last word, and this is something that
people aren't really talking about. You know, the LA media
is soft. There was one guy. I've been in LA
a long time. There's one guy in LA media that
had balls. He's dead TJ.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Simers.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Everyone else is a total fanboy in the LA media.
So what is your level of concern for the obviously
slumping show. Hey, oh Tani, what is your level of
good So now we don't particularly care what his dominance
was in the regular season, right, we just mentioned the
Dodgers in the regular season. It's just kind of a
(17:50):
it's more of a nuisance than anything. The way they
approach the regular season and Otani was great. He's most
likely going to win another MVP and the fifty five
home runs, the double Nickels for home runs, and three
MVP trophies that he's collected.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
There.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
I'm sure as sure as hell, don't care about the
seven hundred million dollar country.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
All of that is prologued.
Speaker 1 (18:12):
It does not matter here right now in this Mammy
Sho hal Tani is say it with me now, non factor.
He's a non factor for the Dodger and they're still winning.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
They're still winning.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
The guy's batting a buck thirty three, which I think
is a highway somewhere. A buck thirty three in October.
Buck thirty three for Otani in October. And you're supposed
to be the man, and that's what you're doing in
the face of the sport and all that. Right now,
he's not. You know, he's a birdy. He's a stool pitching,
(18:48):
is what he is. He's a decoy in the postseason
right now, Otani is a decoy. Didn't play well in
the World Series last year, not playing well this year,
and teams are still walking him out of an abundance
of respect because of his aura, they're still walking show. Hey,
Altani's reputation precedes him and all that. But when they
actually pitched to Otani, there's a hole in his swing.
(19:12):
In fact, I went back and I looked. I watched
on the on the rebroadcast of the clips online, and
the hole in Otani's swing is actually the size of
a school bus that Roberto the bus driver could drive through.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
It's that big a hole, pretty big, pretty big hole there.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
He looks lost in some of these at bats, didn't
he if you watch the game, or maybe a blind
hurt it, but he just looked lost.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
And it's not the Otani that we see from April
until September. This is different Otani. And because the Dodgers
are winning, he looks mortal, right, he looks mortal, but
they're winning, and if they stumble, they lose game two here, uh,
or you lose a couple of games. This the story
becomes a def con one for the talk shows. And
(19:56):
you've already got people say, well, what's going on here?
Like Otani's not like one thirty three. The broadcasters they
give him a bubble bath. They give him, the Maney
and the Petty on the TV broadcast, they love him
and playoff baseball exposing those wards. He's very similar to
Barry Bonds, a lot of home runs, and Bonds was
(20:16):
a not known for being very good in the postseason,
and he's getting that October treatment here, where there's a
lot of intentional walks, there's nibbling around the zone, and
and the Dodgers keep winning, and so this is on
the back burner. I would be clear, this is on
the back burner here. But the Malar level of concern,
which is the only measurement that matters, the Mallar level
(20:39):
of concern, is we're at the medium right now in
the stove. We're not going all the way up to
full burn. We're at the medium there, and we will
at a moment's notice go full blown panic, full blown
panic when the Dodgers start losing some of these games
because of Tony's not hitting it one thirty three batting average.
(21:00):
We're three rounds, one game into the third round, but
we're three rounds into the playoffs there, and the conversation
will flip from generational superstar.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
To the ghost of October. It is the Ben Maler Show.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
If you want to comment on any of that, you
can join us right now say hello. Lines are open
and the easiest time to get in now. It gets
progressively harder as we go through the overnight hours. You
can jump online right now and talk some baseball, not
just the Dodger game, talking about the Mariners off to
the great start, Seattle two wins away from being the
last team to reach the World Series. No, everyone else
(21:33):
been to the World Series but not the Seattle Mariners
two wins away from that, and a couple of Monday
night games the Buffalo Bills all of a sudden suck
they lost to a bat Atlanta team and the Washington
Commanders gave a game to the Chicago Bear. So some
of the stories were yapping about throughout the overnight eight

Speaker 1 (29:55):
Good, yeah that's the funniest thing, Though. Mike remember when
they when they beat the, yeah The. Phillies because the
pitcher for The phillies fed up at the end of
the game through the, ball they Interviewed paz on THE
tnt postgame Or turner post game because they had to interview.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Somebody he grounded out to the pitcher and they interviewed.
Him as the start of the. Game it was so.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
Stipid dodgers should have won this game, tonight eight or
nine or ten to. Nothing The dodgers are obviously. Superior you.
Know mondsey always says that we're not playing against, them
we're playing against. Us and you said it. Earlier they
did everything they could to lose this. Game they did
everything they could to lose that game last. WEEK i
(30:36):
don't Understand Dave. Roberts he doesn't coach the players in
real time and he doesn't help them. Adjust And Pa
hayes has been swinging the same way for the last ten.
Days he's swinging up at the. Ball he's. SCOOPING i
played this. Game they aren't telling him to hit the
top half of the. Ball Pete ROSE i was listening
(30:58):
to him talking about it. Recently he needs to Play
pepper every day until he hit the top half of the.
Ball he's missing. Everything and same With. Otani otani has
gotten so bunched up by being in the playoffs that
he's not calm up. There he's wanting to be a super.
Superstar we don't need him to be. That we need
him to be the threat he. Is he's getting. Walk
(31:18):
he hit the Ball welton at that one, time but
he is so bunched, up And Dave roberts doesn't coach
them as. Athletes he coaches him much more. Technically and
it drives me crazy because he won last, year thank,
god and four years. Ago but other than, that HE'S
i was talking To Steve garvey And mannimoto a couple
of years ago at The. Games they, said what the
(31:38):
hell is he doing Coach steve guys in real time

And panes is horrible. Here and then this Guy hernandez The,
oscars he has made more mistakes in the, field and
on the basis they need to put him in sprint
training and have the shed twenty pounds so he could.
Run he's a fat little dude out there like a loves.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
ONE i know it's not, nice but you know what
kind of mean it. Is but the great thing, is
you know how this, Works. Mike if they do ultimately
win The World, series no matter how ugly it, is
people forget about all. This they're only going to remember
that they won The World. Series they're not gonna remember
like last year The dodgers he hadn't been For Walker
(32:50):
buelder pitching out of his. Mind and then of course
this year he sucked but with these other, teams but
he was great in the playoffs in The World. Series without,
that they wouldn't won last. Year but people forget about
you just remember the fact who. Won that's.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
It you remember the.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Ending all, right call me, Anytime, Mike thank. You there's
the great mic, there uh checking. In let's go to,
uh who do we? Have let's go To. Michael who's
next in THE? Oc it is The Ben Maler show On.
Fox chuck some nlcs here as we yap the night?
Speaker 2 (33:16):
Away what's going?
Speaker 4 (33:17):
On, Yeah i'm pumped on The dodger way And i'll
take them anyway we can get, them SO.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
I can't be too.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
Upset you always want to see them play their best
and at the end of the day they got to
w we play. Tomorrow BUT i just kind of, SAY
i disagree with your characterization that The dodgers are the
goliath in this match. Up do we forget that The
brewers were six and oh this, season, wife they're like
wipe them clean at home In, milwaukee and even going
(33:49):
back to last year there eight.
Speaker 1 (33:52):
No, no come, On Mike, michael come, on you don't
really Believe come, on are you trying to sell that The,
dodgers like The brewers are the superior in terms of
the star power and the billboard The brewers are ahead
of the Dodg because that's what this is. About it's
you're trying to sell to people that aren't hardcore baseball. Fans.
(34:14):
Uh and it's Like Pat, MURPHY i was gonna USE
i use this as a, tease And i'll pay it
off right, Now Pat, murphy The brewers. Manager All, Right
Pat murphy came out and said before the, game he
said that most of The dodger players couldn't name eight
guys on The milwaukee, roster And i'll bet you most
casual baseball fans couldn't name eight guys on The Milwaukee brewers.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
Roster they're.
Speaker 1 (34:33):
Nameless they're, FACELESS i.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
Understand but they're the best team in THE nf the
hen al, yea and.
Speaker 3 (34:41):
They're they're they're hosting this, series Like yellick, said.
Speaker 4 (34:45):
Oh we almost stole, one but they're.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Not but it doesn't. Matter listen the.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Records, fine but The dodgers are the, stars they're the,
Ones they're The goliath in the terms of the. Payroll
it's all based On and they're people, saying if The
dodgers lose in this, series there will not be a
work stoppage In. BAY i gotta let you, Go, michael
but because of the. Clock but they, say, hey if
The dodgers win this THAT i did lose to The,
brewers this will most likely eliminate works that they're talking
(35:12):
about having a work stoppage in twenty twenty seven labor
dispute because of the haves and the have, nots and
The brewers on one of the have. Nots and if
they somehow beat The. Dodgers and the argument, is, well
The brewers prove that you don't have to have the
biggest payroll to beat The dodgers at big, market big
money team like.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
That but come, ON i MEAN i.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Get that you love The dodgers and you're trying to
make it seem like The brewers are the better.
Speaker 2 (35:35):
Team but my, god, anyway it is The Ben Mahlor.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Show will take your calls at eight seven seven. NIGHT
i like That Pat. Murphy by the, way how about
the Pod padres whacked another manager this. Week we'll talk
more about that, later but The padres Had Pat murphy
was IN i think it an interim, manager And Dave,
roberts Although i'm not a big Dead roberts, fan but
they were both In San diego and both spent like
a minute there and then left time now for the
(36:00):
who AM? I? Game this is where we tend to
be somebody else as we call it the who AM? I?
Game so The. Dodgers Blake snell the first pitcher in
postseason history to have multiple outings of six plus innings
with one or no hits allowed in a single. Postseason
