Speaker 1 (00:00):
Playball. It's our number three, our number three, The Ben
mal Show. Happy Monday to you. It's November three today,
rest in peace my dear old mom, Mom's birthday back
in the day. So here in our number three as
we chat on the radio via the podcast. Now that
they got those four last wins and another World Series,
(00:23):
will Dave Roberts be proved right? Regarding the Dodgers running baseball?
He said at the end of the NLCS over the Brewers,
we're gonna ruin baseball. Let's go out and do it.
And on the other side, were they Vladimir Guerrero Junior
Blue Jays really the better team in the World Series?
One of their announcers said that. And what grade are
(00:44):
we giving as we head into the offseason? Now, what
are we giving the twenty twenty five MLB free agent class?
The shopping season gets started on Thursday. In baseball, we'll
talk about that and more. Right now here, it is
our number three. What can I'm Blue do for you?
Not Brown? What can blue do for you? Welcome in
(01:05):
the beginning of another hour of The Ben Mahlor Show.
We are in the air everywhere in your face as
we provide safe neighborhoods for all we do coast to coast,
border to border and beyond on the vast and considerably
(01:27):
powerful microphones of FSR emmnating live from the marathon, Not
the New York Marathon, it's the Mike Marathon, as we
are talking into these mics all night long from the
world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by Scrooge,
who's in the younger demo in northern California. He is
(01:49):
this portion of the Ben Mal Show made possible in
part by our friends at Tiraq. That's right, Tyraq. For
over forty years, Kathy and Madison and Ruth know that
ti Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires
for how, what and where they drive. Even for JJ
and Retten ship fast and free back by free road
hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation,
(02:12):
tyre rac dot com, the way tire buying show me
so our lead. This hour is the post mortem on
the scene there in Toronto. Over the weekend Friday and Saturday,
we did a Mallard monologue on the Fifth Hour podcast
about Game seven. But the post mortem continues. As the
(02:32):
curtain has come down on the twenty twenty five baseball
season and the Fall Classic, which was El Classico. What
an ending there, Miguel Rojas who sucks hit a home
run to tie the game in the ninth with one out,
and then will Smith, the fresh Prince, gets it done there.
He won it in the eleventh for the Dodgers. They
(02:53):
become the first back to back champs in the National
League since the Big Red Machine of the nineteen seventies,
the first in baseball since way back in the nineties
when Jerry Seinfeld had the top show on television and
Bernie Williams and Derek Jeter and Jorge Posada and those
Yankees were getting it done. If you remember those teams,
that means you're old and they were good. They were good,
(03:15):
and they won three in a row. So now people
are doing the autopsy on the season and the Dodgers
and the Blue Jays and all that, and what the
dominance of the Dodgers. They were not dominant in terms
of winning the stat sheet in the World Series, but
they ended up winning the World Series. They were supposed
to win the World Series. They actually underachieved during the
regular season. They ended up winning. It was rather easy
(03:36):
until they got to the World Series for the Dodgers,
and so what does it all mean? Specifically the quote
and it is the money quote Dave Roberts after the
National League Championship Series. When he gave the quote, he said,
they said the Dodgers are ruining baseball. Roberts said, let's
go get four more wins and really ruined baseball. Okay,
(03:57):
that's a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the
question now that they've got those last four wins and
another championship parade which will be coming up later today
in Los Angeles, will Dave Roberts be proven right regarding
his prediction, his premonition that the Dodgers I have ruined baseball?
(04:19):
Will the Dodgers end up having ruined baseball by winning
this World Series? So on this one, I've got a flamingo,
floating bikinis and bread and milk, and we will combine
all of these things together and we are going to
make some delicious mats of ball soup, just like your
(04:41):
your grandma would make your babushka. All right, now, first
of all, to answer the question the Dodgers winning the
World say, is, will Dave Roberts be proven right? Have
they now ruined baseball. I'm gonna go no on this.
This will be used against the Dodgers, and it'll be
used against the top teams in baseball. That does not mean, though,
that this is going to be the end of baseball
(05:03):
as we know it. They'll be dramatic changes. And if
you look at the way baseball's done business, most of
the problems in baseball are self inflicted. They just are
by the management people in baseball. The Dodgers just showed
everyone how whack a doodle the people that run baseball
teams are. And you've the problem that I look at
(05:24):
when I look at baseball. The problem is you've got
about half the teams in baseball that don't want to win.
They don't they don't try to win. They run their
shop like it's a garage sale. Every summer, they pick
up players, trade deadline, who can we get rid of
save a couple of bucks. They do the shuffle. There's
that part of it, and then there's just the Some
(05:45):
teams don't even try to add good players to the roster.
They don't spend any money. And the Dodgers, they they're
not a garage sale. They operate like a fortune five
hundred company is what they do. It's not competition, it's
capitalism on steroids. With the Dodgers have been a blue do.
They found loopholes. Players don't like to play in California
because if Gavin Newsom and the taxation, so the players
(06:06):
get paid when they retire and they don't have to
pay California taxes. So it's a great way to do it.
But if you look at the numbers here, right, the
last ten years, there has been only one team that
has won the championship outside the top ten in payroll,
actually twenty twenty one Atlanta Braves. But that Atlanta Brave team.
What they did is they finagled the salary and they
(06:28):
signed players that would have made a lot more money
to team friendly deals like Ronald Lacuno Junior, who was
hurt that year anyway, but he was on the roster
and so their payroll was a result of some team
friendly contracts. So the answer again is one the last decade,
there's been one team not in the top ten at
the start of the year in payroll that won the
World Series, and so most of Major League Baseball here's
(06:50):
the issue, right, here's the issue. Most of Major League
Baseball is sitting on a pink flamingo floating in the pool.
Not in the pool, not in the ocean, in the sewer. Okay,
with all the vermin, they're sitting and they're floating around
on the pink flamingo, floating of mediocrity right there in
(07:12):
the sewer. And I did the malord math on this,
and by my count, there are roughly twelve teams. There's
only thirty in baseball, so that's forty percent twelve teams.
That includes the Pirates, the A's, the White Sox, the Angels,
the Rockies who aren't even trying to win, the Marlins,
teams like that. These owners are not rebuilding, even though
(07:35):
that's an annoying word. They're just collecting interest, is what
they're doing. You run a bad baseball team, You run
a bad baseball team. It's kind of like owning a
strip mall passive income. There's not any real accountability. Yeah,
you're not taking You're investing in the minor league system,
is what you're doing. And you slap that word. This
(07:57):
is one of the great sucker words, one of the
great weasel words of all time. Rebuild. We are going
to rebuild. We are going to charge major league prices,
big league prices. We're gonna charge okay, and the low
information fan will get an inferior product. But they're gonna
be like on board. Why are they gonna be on board?
Because we're gonna be really good in twenty thirty one.
(08:19):
We are gonna be so great. Yes, we're going to
absolutely blow for the next six years. But let me say,
twenty thirty one is great, and then when they get
to twenty thirty one, it's gonna be well, we need
a couple of extra years. Okay, twenty thirty three, perfect done,
Way to go. Meanwhile, the Dodgers, they're the Amazon, not
the TMU. They're the Amazon of baseball. Massive operation, endless money,
(08:43):
every possible edge, run by the nerds, all of that, right,
and the Dodgers. People get all upset. They get all, oh,
it's not fair. Booooo, it's not fair. People get all upset.
And the Dodgers are playing the system right. Of course,
they're playing the system better than everyone. The same system
is available to the White Socks and the Rockies. They
(09:04):
choose not to do it. They choose not to do it.
The problem is that Dodgers spend more of their revenue
on reinvesting in the team than anyone else in baseball,
a higher percentage of the revenue the Dodgers make from
all the TV and all that stuff, they reinvest in
the team. And teams like the Pirates and the A's
(09:24):
and the teams like that. They don't do that because
they're making money. Why would they do that. They'd make
less money if they did that. And was crying about
a nuclear winter coming for baseball. There's gonna be a
long workstoppage, and the Dodgers are bad guys. The Dodgers
are the bad guys. And no, the bad guys are
the owners of the teams that aren't even trying to
put a competitive team on the field. That you know,
(09:46):
there's chatter there's gonna be a long work stoppage in
baseball and they're gonna put a cap and a salary
cap floor. And I could do ten minutes on how
ridiculous the salary cap floor is and what suckers you are,
and how dumb you are to think that you're gonna
get out of this and the salary cap floor is
going to save you. Maybe I'll do something later in
the week on that. I don't have time to get
into it right now, but it's one of the more
(10:07):
ridiculous points made that I've heard. You need a salary
cap floor, so teams like the White Sox and the
A's and the Marlin spend more money. Trust me, that
will not go the way you think it's going to go.
It will not, I promise you. I'll explain more later
in the week in a future episode. And So if
ruining baseball, which the Dodgers have been accused of, if
you're ruining baseball. If that's the case, so the Dodgers
(10:29):
are running baseball because they're trying to win championships every year,
you are the bad guys. Think about how fed up
and backwards you are as an industry when you're shaming
a team that is going above and beyond the call
of duty to win championships. And you're the bad guy,
my fat ass, you're the bad guy. You play to
win the game exactly, exactly, Ay, five percent of the
(10:51):
world's working. The other fifteen percent come out here. It's
a playground for the blank blanks. It's not right. It
shows you just how backwards the sport of baseball is,
And if you were an employee, would you rather work
for a team like the Dodgers, or would you rather
work for a team like the Athletics who play in
a minor league ballpark in Sacramento and have Bush League
(11:14):
facilities and all that, or would you want to play
with the Dodgers? The Dodgers. These players are so coddled
with the Dodgers. They're the only team in all of
North American sports that use two planes, one for the
players so they can be separated from the flotsam and
jetsam on the other plane the coaches and the support
staff and all that. So they're so spoiled. They've done that.
(11:36):
They brought in Japanese toilets, so they have the cleanest
asses in baseball. The Dodgers have the cleanest tushies in
baseball because they've got the toilets that spread the water. Right,
They've got all that, and they're the bad guys. Would
you rather work for the Dodgers or the White Sox
or the Athletics who use I think the White Sox
not that why the Athletics, I believe they use porta
(11:57):
pottis right? Yeah, yeah, seriously, if you take a dump
for the Dodgers, you're in a beautiful bathroom with luxury tile,
marble tile, and a Japanese style toilet. If you play
for the Athletics and you take a deuce, you're sitting
in a porta potty at it's one hundred and fifty
(12:18):
degrees and it hasn't been clean in two weeks. Where
would you rather be? Meanwhile, secondly, let's address the Blue
Jays sports net analyst Caleb Joseph. Now, this guy went
viral during the regular season. He got into it with
Michael k. Well, you don't watch sportsnetty. I may or
(12:39):
may not have access to this. So I've watched it
and I've seen him, and he's got some strong opinions.
He's clearly a fanboy for the Blue Jays, works Blue JATV.
So he opened up his postgame commentary this this guy,
Caleb Joseph over the weekend. After Game seven, he said, quote,
this is gonna sound like sour grapes and I don't
really give a poop. I cleaned it up. The better
(13:03):
team did not win this World Series, said Caleb Joseph.
All right, question for the esteem panel. As Steven Manhattan
likes to say, so, the question, were the Vladimir Guerrero
Junior Blue Jays really the better team in the World Series?
Did the better team not win? All right? So this
(13:25):
is classic loseer loser talk from the top rope, from
the top rope, and from the north. The Dodgers later
today are having a parade. They're having a parade, and
you're stuck there at the podium trying to explain why
(13:47):
the Blue Jays are not having a parade. You're talking,
I guess about moral victories. The only way you could
make that take and live by that take and die
by that take is that if you love stats, if
you just go by the stats, Congratulations Toronto, you had
better stats. Way to go. You won the spreadsheet parade,
you had lower payroll, still paid a lot of money,
(14:08):
but you paid lower than the Dodgers. It's kind of
like saying, if the World Series were decided by expected
batting average, we would have won. Smiler alert. It's not
I excuse my French se la vill That's life, Okay,
that's life. The Jays won the nerd battle, they did
(14:30):
not win the war. It's like bragging that your your
Tinder profile got more swipes but the other guy got
the hot girl, but you didn't get the hot go,
but you had more swipes on your tinder. You can
throw all the numbers at me. I've seen all the numbers.
The Blue Jays had a better team batting average, they
had a better on base percentage, and yet they spit
(14:52):
the bet at the end of the game in Game
seven of the World Seriously, you know who didn't ya?
I'm Amoto, my guy, all right, big balls Yamamoto for sure,
he was the difference maker. Three wins and Era just
a hair over one. Came out of the bullpen on
fumes in Game seven after pitching Game six and slam
(15:12):
the door. Slam the door, and the Jays hit the
ball all over the place. They did. They had how
many chances to win the World Series? And the Dodgers
hit it when it mattered. That's the difference. Blue Jay
has got more hits. It's kind of like my old
diet back in the day when I was morbidly obese.
It was quantity over quality. The Blue Jays had a
quantity diet. They had a lot of food. The Dodgers
had quality food. Is what they had. They did right.
(15:35):
You can almost hear the Blue Jays crying into their poutine.
They had six guys hitting three hundred in the World Series. Yeah,
and you failed to get the hunk of metal. Congratulations
you did. Baseball is not about the pretty stats. It's
about timing. There's a famous quote that many have been
attributed to saying about baseball and stats and all that.
Statistics are kind of like bikinis. All right, we all
(15:59):
like bikinis, we all having Most people like bikinis. No
matter what team you're on, you like bikini. They show
you a lot, but they don't show you everything. No, No,
there's stuff that you don't see. I mean, you don't
know what's under that bikinis, some very important stuff. The
Dodgers hit two oh three in the World Series. Two
oh three. Otani had an e area of seven point
(16:20):
seven to eight in the World Series. Blake's bro I'm
risking my life, bro. Blake Snell had an area of
six point nine to two in the World Series. And
they still won because as slap hitting Miguel Rojas, he
stepped up hit a big home run, and then Will
Smith came up clutch in the eleventh inning. Toronto looked
(16:40):
like the kind of team that these teams played one
hundred and sixty two games. The Blue Jays would win
more games during the regular season, but in a seven
game series a short sample size, that was not the case.
Too bad, this was not a best of nine or
a best of eleven. The Blue Jays would be in
much better position. They decided years ago to make these
series the best of seven, and they could change it
(17:02):
and make it a best of nine. But the fact
is that the Dodgers were able to make more clutch
plays and they ended up winning the World's Here's the
Freddie Freeman home run the eighteenth inning game and then
the game game seven, and that was the difference. And
you'll win every single time. And this is the argument
against the stats r. Everyone gets all horny for stats,
but yet it's what you do when it matters, right
(17:23):
in that moment, and some guys that weren't supposed to
perform did perform for the Dodgers, and the Dodgers they
ruined baseball. Oh my fat ass, they were bade. Listen,
Toronto screwed this thing up. They should have won. They
were right there, they were two hours away in the night. Denny,
how do you allow Miguel Rohast hit home run. You
should be kicked out of Canada if you allow Miguel
Rohast hit home run to tie the game. And you
(17:44):
did it all right? Final fuck? I turned the page quick, right,
all right? So the World Series ended over the weekend.
The parade for the Dodgers is today. The confetti is
barely barely off the turf, and now the business of
baseball takes over, which will be feeding us in talk
radio for the next couple of months. There are one
(18:04):
one hundred and thirty seven free agents ready to roam
around North America and get paid money, money, money, big money. Question.
First glance question here it is what grade? What grade
are we giving this twenty twenty five free agent shopping season,
which begins later this week, starts on Thursday. Let the
(18:28):
shopping begin, so on the Mallor report card, the only
report card record, the Mallor report card. I am going
to give this a B minus, a B minus in
free agency. It's a solid class. I would not say
it's spectacular. Spectacular was when Otani was a free agent
or Aaron Judge or as John Hayman calls him, Arson Judge.
When those guys were free agents, that was like next level.
(18:50):
This is not at that level. It's not it's a
solid bee that when Otani and Judge were free agents.
That was for let mion. This is more like bread
and milk. Now, you like bread and you like milk,
but you don't get all excited for bread and milk.
You get excited for a nice steak unless you're an
evil vegetarian or even worse like our friend Nostradinas and
(19:12):
his wife. I think vegan. I think vegan. Anyway, listen,
Kyle Schwarber. Kyle Schwarber is the luxury bag. He is right.
You guys are gonna finished runner up to Atani in
the MVP race. And he's one of those plays like
you don't necessarily he's a fun player to have on
your team. You don't necessarily need him. He looks cool
on your roster and it's the classic home run and
(19:36):
with machine and that's fun. It's fun to have guys
like that. He has a lot of homewos. Bobachett, who
had a big home run, looked like that would be
the knockout punch early at three run homer for Toronto
over the weekend, but the Dodgers came back, Bobachett. Nice player,
good player, not elite, not an elite player, but he
(19:56):
can be yours if you want to. And you look
around and there's a lot of players like that, right uh.
You know, Kyle Tucker, I'm skeptical, cheating as I know,
he did some time in Chicago here recently with the Cubs,
and someone's gonna talk themselves into paying Kyle Tucker a
ton of money. And then you look around. There's Genio Suarez,
the late of the Mariners, Trent Grisham of the Yankees,
(20:18):
Luisa Rise of the Padres, Josh Naylor of Seattle. J
t Ria Mutou of the Phillies also are there. They're
all solid. You can fill some holes in your team
with guys like that. You're not going to get a
franchise changer. They're nice, B level players. All those guys
on the market, and I'd say they're glue guys. You know,
I love the term glue guys. Big fan of glue guys.
(20:40):
There's nobody spectacular and the pitching, forget about it. The
Phillies have a bunch of freeze with j t Ria Muto,
as we mentioned, also Kyle Schwarber and the ace of
the Philly staff for Rangel Suarez is a free agent
Franburg Valdez who's got cooties from his time in Houston.
He can be yours as well. So overall it is
a bus. There's some fun toys. But if your general
(21:04):
manager and you're looking to get that prime middle of
the wagon wheel player, eh ah, good luck. He's mostly
gonna be B level and C level players in free agency.
It is the Ben Mahler Show. If you disagree with
that or want to add on, you can join us
right now at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
(21:25):
That's eight seven seven nine nine six six three six nine.
Time now for the Mallor Riddle of the day. And
here is the malar Riddle of the day, a blatant
attempt to get you to listen a bit longer. Thus
we call it the Mallar Riddle of the Day. So
Dodgers utility guy Keith k Hernandez was very excited after
the championship. He showed admiration for show nemesis David Vasse's
(21:50):
blank during the Dodgers World Series celebration. Again, Key k Hernandez,
covered in champagne, showed great admiration for our nemesis, David Vase.
That's the Dodger suck up his blank during the World
Series celebration. That is the Malor riddle of the day.
The answer, We'll get to it and we will do
it next.

Oh on x m A r c is how you

back to it, let's play off the mallor riddle of
the day. Kick k Hernandez that is a baseball player
(23:40):
for the Dodgers, showed great admiration for our nemesis, David
Vasse's blank sharing the Dodgers World Series celebration over the weekend.
That is the question, what is the answer? His postgame
meal guess by Alf the Alien opiner is a stupid
face from ferg Dog. Who else we have? His soft
(24:03):
lips guessed by Donkey Sausage Lady Sideburns said his dragon
breath sim of the suf I can't read on there,
you dummies. Harry Aromas from far Out, Dave JT the
Wingman in Knoxville said his shoelaces clown nosed guessed by
Ike in Roseville, Minnesota. Pimpled tukis from Larry D. That's
(24:26):
his answer. Dog says the size of his Adams Apple
courtesy Fleusher said his gigantic blank he pimpled the tuckis
from Larry. Who else do we have? Page now? He admired.
According to Mike the Leprechaun, his Ben Maler Malar militia
ring he got from mister irrigation. All right, enough of that.
(24:48):
The correct answer, the correct answer to the Mallard Riddle
of the day. Key k Hernandez had great admiration for
our nemesis, David Ressey's nipples. A postgame there, big fan
of is nipples. He's going out to Toronto. We say
hello to Canadian Mike. Hello, Canadian Mike, Welcome Ben.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
I am trying to I'm trying to send a tweet
to the great Tom Cochran right now. Familiar with the
singer Tom Cochran.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
It's very random now, Canadian Mike, full disclosure, you are
part of the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association. Have you
paid up your Fox Sports Radio dues? Canadian Mike, the
check is in the mail. The check is in I've
heard that from Looney too, and Looney has not paid
in a while, so it's bad job.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
Tom Cochran's The Canadian Tom Cockran was tweeting about the
Blue Jays, congratulating on the on the inspiring and uniting ride,
uniting a country. Tom Cochran's famous song with laugh is
a haghway. So I was going to tweet back to
Tom Cochran at Canadian Mike one on one and say,
this was a ride that we want to you know,
all night long, we want to take that all night
(25:53):
long in the World series something like that.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Yeah, well, that's great, that's wonderful. And I like that
you worked it, You worked in your you worked in.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
She had earlier. Ben just last segment.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Uh, why I said he's the elite. Yeah, he's not
good player, not elite, the.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Best shortstop in the game. He's the best hitter in
the other than Freddie Freeman's Vladimir Guerrero Junior.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
You're wearing a powder blue Blue Jay jersey right now.
Your opinion is your little compromise son of Dante. You're little,
I know, yeah, I understand, I'm old. I know Dante.
I'm worried that to me, You're you're bearing the lead here,
Canadian Mike.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Let me give you a cowboy and Windsor kid bit here,
Hey cowboy, this one's for you. Yeah, cel Plee, Cabloavaje.
Vin Scully used to call him the wild Horse. Turned
thirty four years old this year.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Why was he.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
Playing for the Dodgers in the World Series?
Speaker 5 (26:40):
What happened with Flee?
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Well he's exiled.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
There was some man at thirty four years old, the
guy like.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
He's been out of but he's been out of the
Major least for he's been out of baseball.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Should have been on that team. I mean, Donny Baseball
was his manager, Wasn't he maddening?
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yeah, it seems about right. You buried the lead though,
Canadian Mike.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
The lead is broke.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
All I say the lead is Canadian Mike, take a break.
The lead is the guy that got the Rojas home
run ball? Did the old switch Arrooo? It looked like
he threw the ball back onto the field, but upon
further review, it appears that he reached into his pocket
and threw the ball back on the field. And here's
the thing that is a father son bonding moment, as
(27:19):
there's a photo of both of the the father and
the son holding the home run balls. The dad cricket.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
They looked like they were cricket fans.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Yeah, the dad got a mcguil. I think the dad
got McGill. Rojas. The kid got the will Smith home run.
But they held him up, proving that it was a fraud.
That the dad pretended to throw the Rojas home run
ball back but he didn't.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
He's a sisters in the big American city's famous for
throwing balls back on the field.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Well no, but I'm saying no, no, no, yeah, yeah, yeah,
But Kennedy, Mike, this guy pretended to throw it back
and everyone going crazy. That's the coolest guy in the
wilf It was a there was a second ball. There
was a second ball, a hidden ball. Kenny. I love
you Canadian, Mike, You're my man. How many years ago
you work here? It was a long time ago, Right
when'd you leave here?
Speaker 4 (28:09):
I've been gone for a few years. But Ben, here's
what I got to say about the journey that we
were on in the in the World Series.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
There is the.
Speaker 4 (28:16):
Image that will stick with me from that home run
by mister Rojas. Uh it had said the ball gone
over the wall. And then on television, at least on
the Roger Sports Meet broadcast here in Canada with Buck
Martinez and Dan Shulman. They immediately switched to this forty
five year old fan in the stands, and you see
in his eyes the tears, his eyes starting to swell up,
(28:36):
and he was about to gush tears like you, like
you would in a situation like that as a diehard fan.
You don't want to be that forty five year old
I'm glad I'm not that forty five year old man
with that image.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
For the rest of my heart.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Well, say how you got? You're emotionally invested.
Speaker 4 (28:50):
Most most people are not used to going through the
roller coaster ride of emotions that we went through in
game seven.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
No, that's true. It's a unique situation. I gotta go.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
Thank you, yah, take you for allowing as to participate.
We'll see you in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
All right, come come hang out with the great Canadian
Mike loved the guy used to work here. Steven Manhattan. Hello,
Steve O in Manhattan. Welcome.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
Why don't you just go? Why don't you just go
to the parade? All right?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
No, I have to I'm not going to I'm not
going to the parade. Why why would why would I
go to the parade. It's hot. There's gonna be a
lot of people that smell there that don't take showers.
Why would I go there?
Speaker 5 (29:27):
It just stepped on my opening line, welcome to he everybody.
I'm just joking. I'm saying the guy got like emotional,
you know.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Well, so he was talking about a Blue Jay fan.
He was talking about it was it was a Dodger.
Now the guys from the guy just called in from Toronto.
He's talking about Bill from Korea Town being upset that
you're not going to the parade. Oh you know that
was hours ago? Okay, all how long he's been on hold?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
All right?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
I know this is the part you can play. You're
on holding my hand.
Speaker 5 (29:55):
I'm getting crampsh from.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
No, that's it. You don't even know you. The reason
I don't mind leaving you on hold is you you
have another phone. We know because you've called up and
you call other radio shows. So if you're just on
hold with us, you can call the other overnight shows
that you call, and then it's fine. There's no problem.
Speaker 5 (30:08):
Right, I can't call them. They don't let me on,
you know.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
But what does that say? What does that say about
our show that we put you on.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
You guys, listen, listen. I'll say it a million times
that you Ben Mala how we call. And now the
little Leprechaun from w ABC, he lets me on too,
But I don't want to say his name there because
we don't know yet, because they you never know, iill
have enough time to get banned from that show. But
(30:37):
the thing is, I'm amazed that I'm allowed to come
after the show. But I just want to tell your
Athan one time, talking about multiple phones, I was every
call to the show. They must take the you know
the guy who takes the call the screena that next
morning they must have had him on one of those
medievil stretching racks.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
I was every single call. Okay, so so that that
that is possible, that that could happen, and uh, it's well,
it's it's pretty embarrassing for the show that no one
else called. It's it's pretty awkward. It's it's.
Speaker 5 (31:11):
Yeah, but you got to remember I've been calling to
since high school, so it was like the high school days.
It's like you have more energy, it's like a prank.
It's funny and everything. But the thing is, like what
I was talking about, Well, first of all people, should
the Dodger fan should know that this guy Isaiah kind
of whatever the hell his name is, he's going to
be opening a base running school. How could you guys
(31:33):
watch that game and look at that guy I used
to call the baby lead when I played baseball. I
used to take humongous leads off a second base. I
know he was on third base, and the I used
to freak the picture out and the imposing manager would
come out of the mound and tell the picture just
forget about that guy. He's gonna the third base. I
used to beat the third basement to the base. But
(31:54):
the bottom but the bottom line is then he he slides.
You don't want a tag played? Would you slide home plate?
You're coming full?
Speaker 1 (32:04):
It was it was about it was about two inches
away from winning the world. Seriously, yeah, but he would
have won the world. No, I understand you would if.
Speaker 5 (32:11):
You would have taken a good lead, a good secondary lead,
and he and he would have ran right to home
plate without sliding. You guys, be no praying today in
Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
You know you're still you're still better about the Yankees
imploding in Game five last year. You haven't let that.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
Come on, listen, Judge took his eye off the ball.
We'll go through the whole.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Anthony, Anthony Volpi misplayed the ball at short stop? How
about your how about your pitcher, Garrett Cole failing to
cover first base? It was beautiful. It's one of my
favorite innings of baseball. You go remember that. It's tattooed
in my head. How bad the Yankees played that inning.
Speaker 5 (32:47):
I would put that ball on Anthony Rizzo because he
should have charged that ball I played. I played center field.
I would have been chasing Mookie Wilson or Rookie Betts.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Whatever you should be coaching, then why are you? You
should be coe one of these teams? When do they
hire you?
Speaker 5 (33:02):
I did? I helped out a lot to you. I
helped a lot of people out there. My guys got
to come off the mound. I don't want to get
into whole. People don't want to hear that stuff. But listen,
I want to tell you something your show, Like last week,
you don't realize somebody was trying to call me when
I was on the air with you. That only happened
twice before with Warner Wolf and Joe Viningo.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
When I was on Warner Wolf. I haven't heard that
name in a lot. I love Warner Wolf. He's retired
in Florida.
Speaker 5 (33:28):
Wait used to go nuts when I called this show.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Let's go to the video tape. Let's go to the
video tape, Warner Wolf.
Speaker 5 (33:35):
There you go, right, one hundred of giants picked him
up with one hand. He looked like b Lorell.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Yeah, I gotta go that thing. I gotta get Cardiac
Stanley on. He's the guy that famously had the heart
attack on the show a couple of years back. Hello
Cardiac Stanley, and since Sinnaty, Hello Stanley. Hello, how's your heart? Stanley?
Speaker 6 (33:54):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (33:56):
Really good?
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Good?
Speaker 6 (33:58):
But I'll tell you I want to talk about the Bengals,
but I want to talk about the Game seven, the
World Series. I got good that row host guy, he
hit a loane away, great, he cheated it out. He runs.
I mean, that's like impossible, right, that home running hit.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
I did not expect him to hit home run in
that situation, though, I was screaming at my TV, why
is he up? Why is he batting? But you don't run?
Speaker 4 (34:27):
There you go exactly.
Speaker 6 (34:28):
And then both teams had a force out and extra.
Speaker 5 (34:34):
Innings at home.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Yeah, yes, that's correct, crazy you know, yep.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
And then the ending of the Bengals Bears came in
the last three minutes. You probably didn't see that, but
it was unbelievable. Joe Big Joe black o anyway or
take him up?
Speaker 1 (34:57):
All right, all right, stan I'm glad you're okay, Yeah,
all right, I'm gonna go. It's the great Cardiac Stanley.
Many many years ago, Stanley was on the air and
had a heart attack while he was on the air,
but we saved his life. A very heroic moment in
the history of the show and forever Cardiac Stanley a
Mallard Militia legend, one of the great moments in the
history of overnight talk radio. And we're very heroic what

rest in peace my dear old mom, Mom's birthday back
in the day. So here in our number three as
we chat on the radio via the podcast. Now that
they got those four last wins and another World Series,
(00:23):
will Dave Roberts be proved right? Regarding the Dodgers running baseball?
He said at the end of the NLCS over the Brewers,
we're gonna ruin baseball. Let's go out and do it.
And on the other side, were they Vladimir Guerrero Junior
Blue Jays really the better team in the World Series?
One of their announcers said that. And what grade are
(00:44):
we giving as we head into the offseason? Now, what
are we giving the twenty twenty five MLB free agent class?
The shopping season gets started on Thursday. In baseball, we'll
talk about that and more. Right now here, it is
our number three. What can I'm Blue do for you?
Not Brown? What can blue do for you? Welcome in
(01:05):
the beginning of another hour of The Ben Mahlor Show.
We are in the air everywhere in your face as
we provide safe neighborhoods for all we do coast to coast,
border to border and beyond on the vast and considerably
(01:27):
powerful microphones of FSR emmnating live from the marathon, Not
the New York Marathon, it's the Mike Marathon, as we
are talking into these mics all night long from the
world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by Scrooge,
who's in the younger demo in northern California. He is
(01:49):
this portion of the Ben Mal Show made possible in
part by our friends at Tiraq. That's right, Tyraq. For
over forty years, Kathy and Madison and Ruth know that
ti Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires
for how, what and where they drive. Even for JJ
and Retten ship fast and free back by free road
hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation,
(02:12):
tyre rac dot com, the way tire buying show me
so our lead. This hour is the post mortem on
the scene there in Toronto. Over the weekend Friday and Saturday,
we did a Mallard monologue on the Fifth Hour podcast
about Game seven. But the post mortem continues. As the
(02:32):
curtain has come down on the twenty twenty five baseball
season and the Fall Classic, which was El Classico. What
an ending there, Miguel Rojas who sucks hit a home
run to tie the game in the ninth with one out,
and then will Smith, the fresh Prince, gets it done there.
He won it in the eleventh for the Dodgers. They
(02:53):
become the first back to back champs in the National
League since the Big Red Machine of the nineteen seventies,
the first in baseball since way back in the nineties
when Jerry Seinfeld had the top show on television and
Bernie Williams and Derek Jeter and Jorge Posada and those
Yankees were getting it done. If you remember those teams,
that means you're old and they were good. They were good,
(03:15):
and they won three in a row. So now people
are doing the autopsy on the season and the Dodgers
and the Blue Jays and all that, and what the
dominance of the Dodgers. They were not dominant in terms
of winning the stat sheet in the World Series, but
they ended up winning the World Series. They were supposed
to win the World Series. They actually underachieved during the
regular season. They ended up winning. It was rather easy
(03:36):
until they got to the World Series for the Dodgers,
and so what does it all mean? Specifically the quote
and it is the money quote Dave Roberts after the
National League Championship Series. When he gave the quote, he said,
they said the Dodgers are ruining baseball. Roberts said, let's
go get four more wins and really ruined baseball. Okay,
(03:57):
that's a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the
question now that they've got those last four wins and
another championship parade which will be coming up later today
in Los Angeles, will Dave Roberts be proven right regarding
his prediction, his premonition that the Dodgers I have ruined baseball?
(04:19):
Will the Dodgers end up having ruined baseball by winning
this World Series? So on this one, I've got a flamingo,
floating bikinis and bread and milk, and we will combine
all of these things together and we are going to
make some delicious mats of ball soup, just like your
(04:41):
your grandma would make your babushka. All right, now, first
of all, to answer the question the Dodgers winning the
World say, is, will Dave Roberts be proven right? Have
they now ruined baseball. I'm gonna go no on this.
This will be used against the Dodgers, and it'll be
used against the top teams in baseball. That does not mean, though,
that this is going to be the end of baseball
(05:03):
as we know it. They'll be dramatic changes. And if
you look at the way baseball's done business, most of
the problems in baseball are self inflicted. They just are
by the management people in baseball. The Dodgers just showed
everyone how whack a doodle the people that run baseball
teams are. And you've the problem that I look at
(05:24):
when I look at baseball. The problem is you've got
about half the teams in baseball that don't want to win.
They don't they don't try to win. They run their
shop like it's a garage sale. Every summer, they pick
up players, trade deadline, who can we get rid of
save a couple of bucks. They do the shuffle. There's
that part of it, and then there's just the Some
(05:45):
teams don't even try to add good players to the roster.
They don't spend any money. And the Dodgers, they they're
not a garage sale. They operate like a fortune five
hundred company is what they do. It's not competition, it's
capitalism on steroids. With the Dodgers have been a blue do.
They found loopholes. Players don't like to play in California
because if Gavin Newsom and the taxation, so the players
(06:06):
get paid when they retire and they don't have to
pay California taxes. So it's a great way to do it.
But if you look at the numbers here, right, the
last ten years, there has been only one team that
has won the championship outside the top ten in payroll,
actually twenty twenty one Atlanta Braves. But that Atlanta Brave team.
What they did is they finagled the salary and they
(06:28):
signed players that would have made a lot more money
to team friendly deals like Ronald Lacuno Junior, who was
hurt that year anyway, but he was on the roster
and so their payroll was a result of some team
friendly contracts. So the answer again is one the last decade,
there's been one team not in the top ten at
the start of the year in payroll that won the
World Series, and so most of Major League Baseball here's
(06:50):
the issue, right, here's the issue. Most of Major League
Baseball is sitting on a pink flamingo floating in the pool.
Not in the pool, not in the ocean, in the sewer. Okay,
with all the vermin, they're sitting and they're floating around
on the pink flamingo, floating of mediocrity right there in
(07:12):
the sewer. And I did the malord math on this,
and by my count, there are roughly twelve teams. There's
only thirty in baseball, so that's forty percent twelve teams.
That includes the Pirates, the A's, the White Sox, the Angels,
the Rockies who aren't even trying to win, the Marlins,
teams like that. These owners are not rebuilding, even though
(07:35):
that's an annoying word. They're just collecting interest, is what
they're doing. You run a bad baseball team, You run
a bad baseball team. It's kind of like owning a
strip mall passive income. There's not any real accountability. Yeah,
you're not taking You're investing in the minor league system,
is what you're doing. And you slap that word. This
(07:57):
is one of the great sucker words, one of the
great weasel words of all time. Rebuild. We are going
to rebuild. We are going to charge major league prices,
big league prices. We're gonna charge okay, and the low
information fan will get an inferior product. But they're gonna
be like on board. Why are they gonna be on board?
Because we're gonna be really good in twenty thirty one.
(08:19):
We are gonna be so great. Yes, we're going to
absolutely blow for the next six years. But let me say,
twenty thirty one is great, and then when they get
to twenty thirty one, it's gonna be well, we need
a couple of extra years. Okay, twenty thirty three, perfect done,
Way to go. Meanwhile, the Dodgers, they're the Amazon, not
the TMU. They're the Amazon of baseball. Massive operation, endless money,
(08:43):
every possible edge, run by the nerds, all of that, right,
and the Dodgers. People get all upset. They get all, oh,
it's not fair. Booooo, it's not fair. People get all upset.
And the Dodgers are playing the system right. Of course,
they're playing the system better than everyone. The same system
is available to the White Socks and the Rockies. They
(09:04):
choose not to do it. They choose not to do it.
The problem is that Dodgers spend more of their revenue
on reinvesting in the team than anyone else in baseball,
a higher percentage of the revenue the Dodgers make from
all the TV and all that stuff, they reinvest in
the team. And teams like the Pirates and the A's
(09:24):
and the teams like that. They don't do that because
they're making money. Why would they do that. They'd make
less money if they did that. And was crying about
a nuclear winter coming for baseball. There's gonna be a
long workstoppage, and the Dodgers are bad guys. The Dodgers
are the bad guys. And no, the bad guys are
the owners of the teams that aren't even trying to
put a competitive team on the field. That you know,
(09:46):
there's chatter there's gonna be a long work stoppage in
baseball and they're gonna put a cap and a salary
cap floor. And I could do ten minutes on how
ridiculous the salary cap floor is and what suckers you are,
and how dumb you are to think that you're gonna
get out of this and the salary cap floor is
going to save you. Maybe I'll do something later in
the week on that. I don't have time to get
into it right now, but it's one of the more
(10:07):
ridiculous points made that I've heard. You need a salary
cap floor, so teams like the White Sox and the
A's and the Marlin spend more money. Trust me, that
will not go the way you think it's going to go.
It will not, I promise you. I'll explain more later
in the week in a future episode. And So if
ruining baseball, which the Dodgers have been accused of, if
you're ruining baseball. If that's the case, so the Dodgers
(10:29):
are running baseball because they're trying to win championships every year,
you are the bad guys. Think about how fed up
and backwards you are as an industry when you're shaming
a team that is going above and beyond the call
of duty to win championships. And you're the bad guy,
my fat ass, you're the bad guy. You play to
win the game exactly, exactly, Ay, five percent of the
(10:51):
world's working. The other fifteen percent come out here. It's
a playground for the blank blanks. It's not right. It
shows you just how backwards the sport of baseball is,
And if you were an employee, would you rather work
for a team like the Dodgers, or would you rather
work for a team like the Athletics who play in
a minor league ballpark in Sacramento and have Bush League
(11:14):
facilities and all that, or would you want to play
with the Dodgers? The Dodgers. These players are so coddled
with the Dodgers. They're the only team in all of
North American sports that use two planes, one for the
players so they can be separated from the flotsam and
jetsam on the other plane the coaches and the support
staff and all that. So they're so spoiled. They've done that.
(11:36):
They brought in Japanese toilets, so they have the cleanest
asses in baseball. The Dodgers have the cleanest tushies in
baseball because they've got the toilets that spread the water. Right,
They've got all that, and they're the bad guys. Would
you rather work for the Dodgers or the White Sox
or the Athletics who use I think the White Sox
not that why the Athletics, I believe they use porta
(11:57):
pottis right? Yeah, yeah, seriously, if you take a dump
for the Dodgers, you're in a beautiful bathroom with luxury tile,
marble tile, and a Japanese style toilet. If you play
for the Athletics and you take a deuce, you're sitting
in a porta potty at it's one hundred and fifty
(12:18):
degrees and it hasn't been clean in two weeks. Where
would you rather be? Meanwhile, secondly, let's address the Blue
Jays sports net analyst Caleb Joseph. Now, this guy went
viral during the regular season. He got into it with
Michael k. Well, you don't watch sportsnetty. I may or
(12:39):
may not have access to this. So I've watched it
and I've seen him, and he's got some strong opinions.
He's clearly a fanboy for the Blue Jays, works Blue JATV.
So he opened up his postgame commentary this this guy,
Caleb Joseph over the weekend. After Game seven, he said, quote,
this is gonna sound like sour grapes and I don't
really give a poop. I cleaned it up. The better
(13:03):
team did not win this World Series, said Caleb Joseph.
All right, question for the esteem panel. As Steven Manhattan
likes to say, so, the question, were the Vladimir Guerrero
Junior Blue Jays really the better team in the World Series?
Did the better team not win? All right? So this
(13:25):
is classic loseer loser talk from the top rope, from
the top rope, and from the north. The Dodgers later
today are having a parade. They're having a parade, and
you're stuck there at the podium trying to explain why
(13:47):
the Blue Jays are not having a parade. You're talking,
I guess about moral victories. The only way you could
make that take and live by that take and die
by that take is that if you love stats, if
you just go by the stats, Congratulations Toronto, you had
better stats. Way to go. You won the spreadsheet parade,
you had lower payroll, still paid a lot of money,
(14:08):
but you paid lower than the Dodgers. It's kind of
like saying, if the World Series were decided by expected
batting average, we would have won. Smiler alert. It's not
I excuse my French se la vill That's life, Okay,
that's life. The Jays won the nerd battle, they did
(14:30):
not win the war. It's like bragging that your your
Tinder profile got more swipes but the other guy got
the hot girl, but you didn't get the hot go,
but you had more swipes on your tinder. You can
throw all the numbers at me. I've seen all the numbers.
The Blue Jays had a better team batting average, they
had a better on base percentage, and yet they spit
(14:52):
the bet at the end of the game in Game
seven of the World Seriously, you know who didn't ya?
I'm Amoto, my guy, all right, big balls Yamamoto for sure,
he was the difference maker. Three wins and Era just
a hair over one. Came out of the bullpen on
fumes in Game seven after pitching Game six and slam
(15:12):
the door. Slam the door, and the Jays hit the
ball all over the place. They did. They had how
many chances to win the World Series? And the Dodgers
hit it when it mattered. That's the difference. Blue Jay
has got more hits. It's kind of like my old
diet back in the day when I was morbidly obese.
It was quantity over quality. The Blue Jays had a
quantity diet. They had a lot of food. The Dodgers
had quality food. Is what they had. They did right.
(15:35):
You can almost hear the Blue Jays crying into their poutine.
They had six guys hitting three hundred in the World Series. Yeah,
and you failed to get the hunk of metal. Congratulations
you did. Baseball is not about the pretty stats. It's
about timing. There's a famous quote that many have been
attributed to saying about baseball and stats and all that.
Statistics are kind of like bikinis. All right, we all
(15:59):
like bikinis, we all having Most people like bikinis. No
matter what team you're on, you like bikini. They show
you a lot, but they don't show you everything. No, No,
there's stuff that you don't see. I mean, you don't
know what's under that bikinis, some very important stuff. The
Dodgers hit two oh three in the World Series. Two
oh three. Otani had an e area of seven point
(16:20):
seven to eight in the World Series. Blake's bro I'm
risking my life, bro. Blake Snell had an area of
six point nine to two in the World Series. And
they still won because as slap hitting Miguel Rojas, he
stepped up hit a big home run, and then Will
Smith came up clutch in the eleventh inning. Toronto looked
(16:40):
like the kind of team that these teams played one
hundred and sixty two games. The Blue Jays would win
more games during the regular season, but in a seven
game series a short sample size, that was not the case.
Too bad, this was not a best of nine or
a best of eleven. The Blue Jays would be in
much better position. They decided years ago to make these
series the best of seven, and they could change it
(17:02):
and make it a best of nine. But the fact
is that the Dodgers were able to make more clutch
plays and they ended up winning the World's Here's the
Freddie Freeman home run the eighteenth inning game and then
the game game seven, and that was the difference. And
you'll win every single time. And this is the argument
against the stats r. Everyone gets all horny for stats,
but yet it's what you do when it matters, right
(17:23):
in that moment, and some guys that weren't supposed to
perform did perform for the Dodgers, and the Dodgers they
ruined baseball. Oh my fat ass, they were bade. Listen,
Toronto screwed this thing up. They should have won. They
were right there, they were two hours away in the night. Denny,
how do you allow Miguel Rohast hit home run. You
should be kicked out of Canada if you allow Miguel
Rohast hit home run to tie the game. And you
(17:44):
did it all right? Final fuck? I turned the page quick, right,
all right? So the World Series ended over the weekend.
The parade for the Dodgers is today. The confetti is
barely barely off the turf, and now the business of
baseball takes over, which will be feeding us in talk
radio for the next couple of months. There are one
(18:04):
one hundred and thirty seven free agents ready to roam
around North America and get paid money, money, money, big money. Question.
First glance question here it is what grade? What grade
are we giving this twenty twenty five free agent shopping season,
which begins later this week, starts on Thursday. Let the
(18:28):
shopping begin, so on the Mallor report card, the only
report card record, the Mallor report card. I am going
to give this a B minus, a B minus in
free agency. It's a solid class. I would not say
it's spectacular. Spectacular was when Otani was a free agent
or Aaron Judge or as John Hayman calls him, Arson Judge.
When those guys were free agents, that was like next level.
(18:50):
This is not at that level. It's not it's a
solid bee that when Otani and Judge were free agents.
That was for let mion. This is more like bread
and milk. Now, you like bread and you like milk,
but you don't get all excited for bread and milk.
You get excited for a nice steak unless you're an
evil vegetarian or even worse like our friend Nostradinas and
(19:12):
his wife. I think vegan. I think vegan. Anyway, listen,
Kyle Schwarber. Kyle Schwarber is the luxury bag. He is right.
You guys are gonna finished runner up to Atani in
the MVP race. And he's one of those plays like
you don't necessarily he's a fun player to have on
your team. You don't necessarily need him. He looks cool
on your roster and it's the classic home run and
(19:36):
with machine and that's fun. It's fun to have guys
like that. He has a lot of homewos. Bobachett, who
had a big home run, looked like that would be
the knockout punch early at three run homer for Toronto
over the weekend, but the Dodgers came back, Bobachett. Nice player,
good player, not elite, not an elite player, but he
(19:56):
can be yours if you want to. And you look
around and there's a lot of players like that, right uh.
You know, Kyle Tucker, I'm skeptical, cheating as I know,
he did some time in Chicago here recently with the Cubs,
and someone's gonna talk themselves into paying Kyle Tucker a
ton of money. And then you look around. There's Genio Suarez,
the late of the Mariners, Trent Grisham of the Yankees,
(20:18):
Luisa Rise of the Padres, Josh Naylor of Seattle. J
t Ria Mutou of the Phillies also are there. They're
all solid. You can fill some holes in your team
with guys like that. You're not going to get a
franchise changer. They're nice, B level players. All those guys
on the market, and I'd say they're glue guys. You know,
I love the term glue guys. Big fan of glue guys.
(20:40):
There's nobody spectacular and the pitching, forget about it. The
Phillies have a bunch of freeze with j t Ria Muto,
as we mentioned, also Kyle Schwarber and the ace of
the Philly staff for Rangel Suarez is a free agent
Franburg Valdez who's got cooties from his time in Houston.
He can be yours as well. So overall it is
a bus. There's some fun toys. But if your general
(21:04):
manager and you're looking to get that prime middle of
the wagon wheel player, eh ah, good luck. He's mostly
gonna be B level and C level players in free agency.
It is the Ben Mahler Show. If you disagree with
that or want to add on, you can join us
right now at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
(21:25):
That's eight seven seven nine nine six six three six nine.
Time now for the Mallor Riddle of the day. And
here is the malar Riddle of the day, a blatant
attempt to get you to listen a bit longer. Thus
we call it the Mallar Riddle of the Day. So
Dodgers utility guy Keith k Hernandez was very excited after
the championship. He showed admiration for show nemesis David Vasse's
(21:50):
blank during the Dodgers World Series celebration. Again, Key k Hernandez,
covered in champagne, showed great admiration for our nemesis, David Vase.
That's the Dodger suck up his blank during the World
Series celebration. That is the Malor riddle of the day.
The answer, We'll get to it and we will do
it next.

Oh on x m A r c is how you
spell Mark? And okay n aar c Ramsey six. Now
back to it, let's play off the mallor riddle of
the day. Kick k Hernandez that is a baseball player
(23:40):
for the Dodgers, showed great admiration for our nemesis, David
Vasse's blank sharing the Dodgers World Series celebration over the weekend.
That is the question, what is the answer? His postgame
meal guess by Alf the Alien opiner is a stupid
face from ferg Dog. Who else we have? His soft
(24:03):
lips guessed by Donkey Sausage Lady Sideburns said his dragon
breath sim of the suf I can't read on there,
you dummies. Harry Aromas from far Out, Dave JT the
Wingman in Knoxville said his shoelaces clown nosed guessed by
Ike in Roseville, Minnesota. Pimpled tukis from Larry D. That's
(24:26):
his answer. Dog says the size of his Adams Apple
courtesy Fleusher said his gigantic blank he pimpled the tuckis
from Larry. Who else do we have? Page now? He admired.
According to Mike the Leprechaun, his Ben Maler Malar militia
ring he got from mister irrigation. All right, enough of that.
(24:48):
The correct answer, the correct answer to the Mallard Riddle
of the day. Key k Hernandez had great admiration for
our nemesis, David Ressey's nipples. A postgame there, big fan
of is nipples. He's going out to Toronto. We say
hello to Canadian Mike. Hello, Canadian Mike, Welcome Ben.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
I am trying to I'm trying to send a tweet
to the great Tom Cochran right now. Familiar with the
singer Tom Cochran.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
It's very random now, Canadian Mike, full disclosure, you are
part of the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association. Have you
paid up your Fox Sports Radio dues? Canadian Mike, the
check is in the mail. The check is in I've
heard that from Looney too, and Looney has not paid
in a while, so it's bad job.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
Tom Cochran's The Canadian Tom Cockran was tweeting about the
Blue Jays, congratulating on the on the inspiring and uniting ride,
uniting a country. Tom Cochran's famous song with laugh is
a haghway. So I was going to tweet back to
Tom Cochran at Canadian Mike one on one and say,
this was a ride that we want to you know,
all night long, we want to take that all night
(25:53):
long in the World series something like that.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Yeah, well, that's great, that's wonderful. And I like that
you worked it, You worked in your you worked in.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
She had earlier. Ben just last segment.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Uh, why I said he's the elite. Yeah, he's not
good player, not elite, the.
Speaker 4 (26:05):
Best shortstop in the game. He's the best hitter in
the other than Freddie Freeman's Vladimir Guerrero Junior.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
You're wearing a powder blue Blue Jay jersey right now.
Your opinion is your little compromise son of Dante. You're little,
I know, yeah, I understand, I'm old. I know Dante.
I'm worried that to me, You're you're bearing the lead here,
Canadian Mike.
Speaker 4 (26:22):
Let me give you a cowboy and Windsor kid bit here,
Hey cowboy, this one's for you. Yeah, cel Plee, Cabloavaje.
Vin Scully used to call him the wild Horse. Turned
thirty four years old this year.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Why was he.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
Playing for the Dodgers in the World Series?
Speaker 5 (26:40):
What happened with Flee?
Speaker 1 (26:41):
Well he's exiled.
Speaker 4 (26:43):
There was some man at thirty four years old, the
guy like.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
He's been out of but he's been out of the
Major least for he's been out of baseball.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
Should have been on that team. I mean, Donny Baseball
was his manager, Wasn't he maddening?
Speaker 1 (26:52):
Yeah, it seems about right. You buried the lead though,
Canadian Mike.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
The lead is broke.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
All I say the lead is Canadian Mike, take a break.
The lead is the guy that got the Rojas home
run ball? Did the old switch Arrooo? It looked like
he threw the ball back onto the field, but upon
further review, it appears that he reached into his pocket
and threw the ball back on the field. And here's
the thing that is a father son bonding moment, as
(27:19):
there's a photo of both of the the father and
the son holding the home run balls. The dad cricket.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
They looked like they were cricket fans.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
Yeah, the dad got a mcguil. I think the dad
got McGill. Rojas. The kid got the will Smith home run.
But they held him up, proving that it was a fraud.
That the dad pretended to throw the Rojas home run
ball back but he didn't.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
He's a sisters in the big American city's famous for
throwing balls back on the field.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Well no, but I'm saying no, no, no, yeah, yeah, yeah,
But Kennedy, Mike, this guy pretended to throw it back
and everyone going crazy. That's the coolest guy in the
wilf It was a there was a second ball. There
was a second ball, a hidden ball. Kenny. I love
you Canadian, Mike, You're my man. How many years ago
you work here? It was a long time ago, Right
when'd you leave here?
Speaker 4 (28:09):
I've been gone for a few years. But Ben, here's
what I got to say about the journey that we
were on in the in the World Series.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
There is the.
Speaker 4 (28:16):
Image that will stick with me from that home run
by mister Rojas. Uh it had said the ball gone
over the wall. And then on television, at least on
the Roger Sports Meet broadcast here in Canada with Buck
Martinez and Dan Shulman. They immediately switched to this forty
five year old fan in the stands, and you see
in his eyes the tears, his eyes starting to swell up,
(28:36):
and he was about to gush tears like you, like
you would in a situation like that as a diehard fan.
You don't want to be that forty five year old
I'm glad I'm not that forty five year old man
with that image.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
For the rest of my heart.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
Well, say how you got? You're emotionally invested.
Speaker 4 (28:50):
Most most people are not used to going through the
roller coaster ride of emotions that we went through in
game seven.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
No, that's true. It's a unique situation. I gotta go.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
Thank you, yah, take you for allowing as to participate.
We'll see you in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
All right, come come hang out with the great Canadian
Mike loved the guy used to work here. Steven Manhattan. Hello,
Steve O in Manhattan. Welcome.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
Why don't you just go? Why don't you just go
to the parade? All right?
Speaker 1 (29:17):
No, I have to I'm not going to I'm not
going to the parade. Why why would why would I
go to the parade. It's hot. There's gonna be a
lot of people that smell there that don't take showers.
Why would I go there?
Speaker 5 (29:27):
It just stepped on my opening line, welcome to he everybody.
I'm just joking. I'm saying the guy got like emotional,
you know.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Well, so he was talking about a Blue Jay fan.
He was talking about it was it was a Dodger.
Now the guys from the guy just called in from Toronto.
He's talking about Bill from Korea Town being upset that
you're not going to the parade. Oh you know that
was hours ago? Okay, all how long he's been on hold?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
All right?
Speaker 1 (29:52):
I know this is the part you can play. You're
on holding my hand.
Speaker 5 (29:55):
I'm getting crampsh from.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
No, that's it. You don't even know you. The reason
I don't mind leaving you on hold is you you
have another phone. We know because you've called up and
you call other radio shows. So if you're just on
hold with us, you can call the other overnight shows
that you call, and then it's fine. There's no problem.
Speaker 5 (30:08):
Right, I can't call them. They don't let me on,
you know.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
But what does that say? What does that say about
our show that we put you on.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
You guys, listen, listen. I'll say it a million times
that you Ben Mala how we call. And now the
little Leprechaun from w ABC, he lets me on too,
But I don't want to say his name there because
we don't know yet, because they you never know, iill
have enough time to get banned from that show. But
(30:37):
the thing is, I'm amazed that I'm allowed to come
after the show. But I just want to tell your
Athan one time, talking about multiple phones, I was every
call to the show. They must take the you know
the guy who takes the call the screena that next
morning they must have had him on one of those
medievil stretching racks.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
I was every single call. Okay, so so that that
that is possible, that that could happen, and uh, it's well,
it's it's pretty embarrassing for the show that no one
else called. It's it's pretty awkward. It's it's.
Speaker 5 (31:11):
Yeah, but you got to remember I've been calling to
since high school, so it was like the high school days.
It's like you have more energy, it's like a prank.
It's funny and everything. But the thing is, like what
I was talking about, Well, first of all people, should
the Dodger fan should know that this guy Isaiah kind
of whatever the hell his name is, he's going to
be opening a base running school. How could you guys
(31:33):
watch that game and look at that guy I used
to call the baby lead when I played baseball. I
used to take humongous leads off a second base. I
know he was on third base, and the I used
to freak the picture out and the imposing manager would
come out of the mound and tell the picture just
forget about that guy. He's gonna the third base. I
used to beat the third basement to the base. But
(31:54):
the bottom but the bottom line is then he he slides.
You don't want a tag played? Would you slide home plate?
You're coming full?
Speaker 1 (32:04):
It was it was about it was about two inches
away from winning the world. Seriously, yeah, but he would
have won the world. No, I understand you would if.
Speaker 5 (32:11):
You would have taken a good lead, a good secondary lead,
and he and he would have ran right to home
plate without sliding. You guys, be no praying today in
Los Angeles.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
You know you're still you're still better about the Yankees
imploding in Game five last year. You haven't let that.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
Come on, listen, Judge took his eye off the ball.
We'll go through the whole.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Anthony, Anthony Volpi misplayed the ball at short stop? How
about your how about your pitcher, Garrett Cole failing to
cover first base? It was beautiful. It's one of my
favorite innings of baseball. You go remember that. It's tattooed
in my head. How bad the Yankees played that inning.
Speaker 5 (32:47):
I would put that ball on Anthony Rizzo because he
should have charged that ball I played. I played center field.
I would have been chasing Mookie Wilson or Rookie Betts.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Whatever you should be coaching, then why are you? You
should be coe one of these teams? When do they
hire you?
Speaker 5 (33:02):
I did? I helped out a lot to you. I
helped a lot of people out there. My guys got
to come off the mound. I don't want to get
into whole. People don't want to hear that stuff. But listen,
I want to tell you something your show, Like last week,
you don't realize somebody was trying to call me when
I was on the air with you. That only happened
twice before with Warner Wolf and Joe Viningo.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
When I was on Warner Wolf. I haven't heard that
name in a lot. I love Warner Wolf. He's retired
in Florida.
Speaker 5 (33:28):
Wait used to go nuts when I called this show.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Let's go to the video tape. Let's go to the
video tape, Warner Wolf.
Speaker 5 (33:35):
There you go, right, one hundred of giants picked him
up with one hand. He looked like b Lorell.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Yeah, I gotta go that thing. I gotta get Cardiac
Stanley on. He's the guy that famously had the heart
attack on the show a couple of years back. Hello
Cardiac Stanley, and since Sinnaty, Hello Stanley. Hello, how's your heart? Stanley?
Speaker 6 (33:54):
Hey?
Speaker 4 (33:56):
Really good?
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Good?
Speaker 6 (33:58):
But I'll tell you I want to talk about the Bengals,
but I want to talk about the Game seven, the
World Series. I got good that row host guy, he
hit a loane away, great, he cheated it out. He runs.
I mean, that's like impossible, right, that home running hit.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
I did not expect him to hit home run in
that situation, though, I was screaming at my TV, why
is he up? Why is he batting? But you don't run?
Speaker 4 (34:27):
There you go exactly.
Speaker 6 (34:28):
And then both teams had a force out and extra.
Speaker 5 (34:34):
Innings at home.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Yeah, yes, that's correct, crazy you know, yep.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
And then the ending of the Bengals Bears came in
the last three minutes. You probably didn't see that, but
it was unbelievable. Joe Big Joe black o anyway or
take him up?
Speaker 1 (34:57):
All right, all right, stan I'm glad you're okay, Yeah,
all right, I'm gonna go. It's the great Cardiac Stanley.
Many many years ago, Stanley was on the air and
had a heart attack while he was on the air,
but we saved his life. A very heroic moment in
the history of the show and forever Cardiac Stanley a
Mallard Militia legend, one of the great moments in the
history of overnight talk radio. And we're very heroic what
(35:21):
we did to go out of our way to help
Cardiac Stanley. My God, straight ahead, the Insta Advice Line,
unscreen Radio, the Insta Advice Line. We'll get to that
and we will do it next.
