Rob and Kelvin explain how Shohei Ohtani has mostly been able to avoid criticism despite having such an underwhelming World Series thus far and discuss whether the MLB’s punishment of the New York Yankees fans who interfered with a foul ball in Game 4 of the World Series was too light. Plus, the guys use the Tom Brady-Gisele Bundchen drama as a backdrop to this week’s edition of One’s Gotta Go.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
You're listening to the best of the Odd Come with
Chris Brusson and Ron Harker.

Speaker 1 (00:30):
We saw the game and there were fans down the
right field foul line, and Mookie Betts made a great catch,
jumped into the stands basically and caught the foul ball.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
I think it wasnt Wan Soto's whose ball was that?
I can't remember who it was. I think it was Soto.
I think it was Soto. Yeah, you got a couple
of guys here in Austin Cabriaco, if I'm saying it right,
and John Peter, they were the guys who were involved
in the incident you're talking about in Cappo Bianco.

Speaker 4 (00:59):
There we go.

Speaker 3 (00:59):
He told you ESPN after the game that they are
ready for this drop. They always planned to do something
like that if it meant helping their team. And then
he goes on to say, we always joke about the
ball in our area. We're not gonna go out on
our way to attack, but if it's in our area,
we're gonna d up. As if he was out here
playing defense. What in the world is he said? Someone defense,

(01:21):
someone knocks the ball, we talk about it. We're willing
to do this. I patrol the wall and.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
They know it.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
But if they wanted to, because Mookie reached into the stands,
they could have tried to catch the ball and block
him that way. What he did was trying to count
the glove open after he caught the ball.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Obviously like like that, he's holding Mookie in the air
like he won. Even Mookie let me go up, trying
to get back on the ground. Oh, it was definitely
one of those moments. But here's my thing. So they
got banned from the Yankees for Game five. This is
the last game in New York off the season, and
obviously they're no more World Series games after today in
New York, the last two.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
If the necessary that he would be in LA. But
here's my thing.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
I think they kind of got off light because opening
up a player's glove to try to knock a ball
out is not like interfering or doing something like that.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
Is a little bit too much.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
And I think because they were season ticket holders that
they didn't get banned or like for next season or
a harsher penalty, because I've never seen anybody try to
probably open a glove from a player for a.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Long time too. It wasn't a quick like what did
you do? It was let it go. He was really
like you see his face, He's gritting his teeth. Give
it a I was like, Yo, this dude is crazy.
I said, it looked like he had mortgage's future and
get four one k on this this game and trying
to justify him coventding all that money, and it was
crazy to see. This is where MLB has to be

(02:54):
hard on people because again, and I'm not trying to
do the old Monday morning quarterback, but as you said,
you watch it, what if he literally twisted Mookie's wrist
so that he's like severely hurt and I'm out of
this and I'm out of this the rest of this
world series. And now you got one of the stars
of this game, one of the stars of the league,
out of a world here, not a couple of games

(03:15):
in mid June out of a world series because some
fan went crazy, like you said, it wasn't a bang
bang in real time. I tried to grab it. You
tried to grab it and whatever. He was going out
of his way, prying his hand over and the other
guy was holding Mooki's other hand, and that's what he said.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
And then that's what made me mad.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
Rob was because let's say he goes, man, I ain't
gonna lie. I got carried away. I just kind of
blanked out for a minute. I was just wow. I
was in the moment. You'd be like, all right, I
get it.

Speaker 4 (03:41):
I get it.

Speaker 3 (03:42):
He's over here, like we had this plan the whole time,
Like that's where if I'm baseballing, Oh so this is
what you were planning to do. He's like, I grab it.
He holds the arm, and we like all right, now,
you're is this is a game? You know what. My
wife is a lawyer. You know what this is premeditat premeditated.
This is first degree robbery of a ball from Mookie
BET's hand. Okay, they thought about this, playing this out

(04:05):
and then they had the nerve to execute it. So
you know what that is. You get more time for
the crime when it's premeditated. So that's what I'm dude,
doom doo doo, dude, I'm about to go law and
order on them.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Man, But do you agree that if these were random
fans who have no history with the Yankees, you don't
have an account right because they told those guys, if
you show up today for Game five, you're gonna be arrested,
and that's what they told them. But only being for
that game, you know what I mean? Random fans that

(04:36):
they didn't know, what.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
Care baby forever, the one time ticket buyers whatever, can't
be here right clearly, this is what they do. They're
known in that area that you know, and you know
it is when you get certain like sections, this is
what we do. We've been having tickets for twenty years.
I know everybody around me know. They immediately pulled up
those tickets together. They've been they've been season to go
for fifteen years. We can't boot them out of here.

(05:00):
And not to mention you know how this goes. If
they mess around and come back and win this series,
those unfortunately, that guy is going to be immortalized as
this was the moment the spark happened. Yes he is,
Rob you know it, Rob, g tell me I'm wrong.
If they come back, really, that was the moment, you

(05:22):
know how Rob Parker, Hey statues. Boy, you thought the
way wasn't getting a statue. This dude is getting a statue.
If they come back and wint out the ball, it'll
be the moment that Sparks speak anything right there.

Speaker 5 (05:34):
Now, Boy, if they come back and win, you know,
I'm right, Rob, I don't know what statue maybe I'm
but what they will promise you. He will have a
car or something on one of the parade.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
Yes, oh god, he will be up there with with.

Speaker 5 (05:52):
And vope like yeah right, putting his hat over the
barricane I gets the wall, that kind of thing. He's
gonna re enact it, like, oh yeah, he's going in
the Hall of Fame. He's already been invited on multiple shows.
Oh I'm sure he had. Dude, I'm telling you right
now to be condemned though I don't.

Speaker 4 (06:08):
I'm with you.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
But if they win it all this is New York.
The rest of the league my condemn him. New York
is gonna be yo. That's my manness would have started.
It was the spark Fat Joe gonna be sitting there
mad as heck like it was supposed to be me.
I'm sure Fat Joe still is not happy it's supposed
to be me. Wow, this guy, I'm telling you right now.
You know how these stupid things go, right, especially in baseball,

(06:31):
praised areas and superstition.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
All that, But I don't think it's fair to try
to rip somebody's glove open, and again.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
To talk about it as if this was always the
game plan. We've been sitting here as ticket holders for
years and if this ever happens, me and my boy,
this is what we're doing.

Speaker 4 (06:48):
And then they actually do it. I mean he was.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Literally biting his cheek. It wasn't like a bang bang happened.
It was like literally trying to you and I were
watching it live, what is going on? So yeah, I
think of your baseball, you gotta come down a little
harder than that, because it almost it almost stole away
from what a wonderful postseason. If something if that were
a different inning, ninth inning, or something crazy or Mookie
gets hurt, that potentially could have ruined an amazing World Series,

(07:13):
an amazing postseason run that baseball's having because of something
bad happened again. Voki too, Mukie wrist, he's in the
air rop not like that could have gone wrong. It
could have gone fast series, and now we all got
to remember this crazy dude who was going nuts trying
to get.

Speaker 4 (07:30):
The ball, no doubt, rob Gee, what do you go?

Speaker 5 (07:32):
You got a question for you guys. So obviously we
agree that this guy was out of bounce, right. I
think that goes without saying. Are you surprised though that,
given the way previous fan interactions have been condemned Russell Westbrook,
you know Lebron James. This is what I'm at, Okay,
So this is the way that it was phrased by
the ESPN reporter who got him on the record after

(07:54):
the game and a tweet. Here's Austin Coppo Bianco in
the middle because some time a fan that interfered with
Mookie I talked about a local bar when a bunch
of other fans asked him to take a picture with
him and for his autograph. He was abute story up
soon at ESPN. Quote, if it's in our area, we're

(08:14):
gonna d it up. So even the reporters are glamorizing
this guy.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
He should be condemned because you can't have that. I
told you, if the ball goes into the stands and
the outfielder is jumping into.

Speaker 4 (08:29):
The stats, I have a right to go for the ball.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
Like if he would have tried to catch it, to
catch it, catch it and it blocks it from from
Mookie's uh glove club, then you can do that, do
you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 4 (08:44):
But but not what he was doing.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
He's p Rob G and his boys other boys holdness,
that's crazy, and Mookie seriously could have got hurt.

Speaker 5 (08:53):
But even the way you guys are responted like it's
a joke, but nobody is upset.

Speaker 4 (09:00):
I was.

Speaker 3 (09:00):
I was upset in real time because again, well, let
me let me get you, let me say let me,
let me let me saying, let.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
Me say this, Rob.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
This is the reason why it's partly what you're saying,
because we are in the meme and gift era. So
even when something bad immediately you know how many people
sent me gifts or videos of him.

Speaker 4 (09:19):
I got to They were.

Speaker 3 (09:20):
Saying, uh, when your dog has a tennis ball and
won't give it up, or when my lady grabbed.

Speaker 4 (09:25):
Most of one too. So yeah, I know exactly.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
So that's we're in a moment where, dude, we'll laugh
at an old lady falling down the stairs. If you
write it, if your if your captions clever enough, that's
the era we're in.

Speaker 4 (09:38):
So Bartman rolling around in his grave.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
I know he's alive, but Bartman is rolling around and oh,
y'all want to condemn me.

Speaker 4 (09:44):
I'm the reason why.

Speaker 3 (09:46):
But this dude, you're laughing making gifts, but he's getting signature.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
But the difference is they won.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
Yeah, and that was a key play or ball that
could have been, you know, an out for the Cubs,
and and then they wind him not winning.

Speaker 4 (09:59):
And everything, so it kind of changed.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
But we were too hard on they were too crazy.

Speaker 4 (10:03):
Thirty thirty was out of line. It was a lot. Uh,
here comes the greatest baseball player to ever lived.

Speaker 1 (10:08):
By the way, well, nobody's on base four change so
it won't be a two run home running the first
and have been solo blast. Uh two out to nobody
on show a swung at the first pitch again, he
does that a lot.

Speaker 3 (10:19):
Yeah, he needs somebody in front him, like, all right,
let me let me figure this out a little different. Yeah,
for six consecutive World Series home runs.

Speaker 4 (10:27):
It's crazy.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
So eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven, seven,
nine nine, six sixty three, sixty nine and and just
uh did they get too lenient of a penalty just
missing one game?

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Should Baseball or the Yankees come down harder.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
I think it's because they have money and the sixth
season ticket holders, because if this was random fans nobody
knew or that just happened to get tickets, they could
easily throw the book at them.

Speaker 4 (10:54):
And they can't cook, like here's a supposed child, right.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
And I'll add to this, I think we're desensitized.

Speaker 4 (11:02):
I think we just because of what Rob said.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
We see everything, everything's online, we see people getting shot.
And I mean that, I'm not trying to be funny,
like you just see if you're scrolling up your timeline,
who knows what you're gonna see from funny to serious.
It's just like, ah, whatever, whatever, whatever. And I think
we become to sensitize. At that play, we all went
that's crazy and just moved on when it's really like, yo, that.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
Could have been really dangerous for Mookie.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio

Speaker 3 (11:34):
You know I love doing this man. It is a Wednesday.
We like having a bunch of fun with this one.
This is one gotta go Wednesdays.

Speaker 6 (11:41):
Five crow, funny even number figure it out, all right,
So we like to sometimes it doesn't always have to
be Rob, but sometimes we like to find a little
sports connection to the ones.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
Gotta go. Understand, let's do it.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
And this is Tom Brady ex justsel bunching, and believe
it or not, she is actually pregnant. And then nobody
saw that coming. Wait a minute, what, Yes, she is pregnant.
Didn't see that coming. Uh, But it's with the jiu jitsu.

Speaker 4 (12:13):
I don't know. Is that a trainer?

Speaker 3 (12:15):
Is that I don't know if he's a coach, but
with him and that was the guy that, like many
people were suspecting maybe something was going on her and
her and him had something. Well, she was with TB twelve.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
And the whole time I just thought it was an
innocent body slam.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Yeah, all ain't working out?

Speaker 4 (12:31):
Oh yeah, you know, come here, let me know, get
on the mat.

Speaker 3 (12:33):
All that getting on the mat, has hers Where we
are in this situation right now? So Rob, Rob, g
Alex beef in. One's gotta go. So we're gonna tie
this into again. There was people suspecting, could something be
else be going on right now? Something out there watching,
ain't coming home watching, ain't answering his phone calls. So
one's gotta go. Bestie, you know, Oh, that's just my

(12:56):
best friend. Oh that's just my play brother. Oh no, no, no,
that's just he's just that. Okay, you're in a relationship.
We're assuming all of these gentlemen are straight, Okay.

Speaker 4 (13:06):
Right, that has to be the is the keeper.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
Here is the qualifier. They're all straight and all very
much heterosexual. And then two women, her bestie, her play brother. Guy.
I'm calling that one guy, okay, Alex, her personal trainer
or in this case, jiu jitsu master. So we're counting
that the guy who's keeping her in shape, right, okay,
train her her work, cubby. Oh that's just Steve, that's

(13:30):
just my work, you know, he's just we just let
me just.

Speaker 4 (13:33):
Ask the question, does does Steve have a paunch? What
are you talking about? What a paunch?

Speaker 3 (13:38):
Well, they call those baller bellies. Now okay if they're yeah.
But if he has a paunch, then I'm okay with yeah.

Speaker 4 (13:43):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (13:43):
They call them baller bellies. That means he got money.
It means eating good. That's what the girls call it.
Now they call it baller belly, means he's eating good.
Come on, you spend on a time Detroit us what
they call it a baller belly. And lastly, again, he
is straight a stylist or a beautician, so he's keeping
the key. Maybe he he's their makeup bardist or maybe
doing her hair, or maybe he's literally the stylist or
wardrobe solist, someone who keeps her looking good in that regard.

(14:07):
So those are yours you best he slash play brother,
personal trainer of some sort her work hubby who may
have a baller belly, or her straight stylist or beautician.
This is easy for me, all right, Do you want
to go last thing or you want to go first?

Speaker 4 (14:20):
Yeah? No, rob G, you want to go first? Rob G? Sure?

Speaker 5 (14:23):
Because you're married, Hey, happily married, that's right, with a
pregnant wife.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
So this probably doesn't even apply to me because I
don't know how many guys.

Speaker 3 (14:32):
Hey, Joselle was pregnant at once. That's a good point.

Speaker 5 (14:35):
Now she's pregnant again, and then again Tom Brady did
leave Bridge in morning and when she was pregnant.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
Baby mama drama. So let me this is tough, so
walk us through. So I'm gonna walk you through it.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
Number one, I'm gonna say that the uh.

Speaker 4 (14:49):
The best friend, the guys you grew up with.

Speaker 5 (14:51):
I'm not worried about that guy because in the ideal world,
we've known each other for a long time. Now I
know him as well. We've probably have hung out before.
It's cool.

Speaker 7 (15:00):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (15:00):
Number two, I'm gonna eliminate the work husband because I'm
really just to be honest, I'm probably gonna have spies
in the building anyways. They know what's going on, to
know the wall's tall, if it's anything like fox Boards Radio,
everybody knows what's know what we're going with you, what's
going on, we're going so for me. And then again

(15:21):
the hairstylist, you know, if she needs I'll give her
a fade.

Speaker 4 (15:24):
You know.

Speaker 5 (15:24):
It's if it's the personal trainer, it's not gonna happen.
You know what I'm saying, Get yourself. The shawnte workout video. There,
Me and you can go to Planet Fitness together for
forty minutes every other day and that's about it.

Speaker 4 (15:39):
There'd be no personal training in this household, all right, hey, Alex,
he basically you're a personal trainer. You can't worry. Yeah,
you wouldn't be in on.

Speaker 7 (15:47):
This, that's true. Rob J would kick you out. He would,
he would. He's seen me all the time. He's not
a fan.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
They's seeing your abs too. That's the problem.

Speaker 7 (15:54):
I'll say this between all of them, I think Rob
G shortchanged the male best friend. Let me tell you
why we're all men?

Speaker 4 (16:01):
Right? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (16:02):
Do you spend time on things that doesn't pay out somehow?
Here's a perfect answer, rob Do you have female friends
you talk to all the time?

Speaker 4 (16:09):
I don't.

Speaker 7 (16:10):
How about you, Kelvin?

Speaker 4 (16:11):
I do? Wait Ruin, point right there? I did, but
I had to answer honestly, I do. Okay, yeah I don't.

Speaker 7 (16:19):
Well, how do you justify the female friends you have?

Speaker 4 (16:22):
I've been like that for years and she now.

Speaker 7 (16:24):
Have like a female best friend.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Not as much as singular like that's my one best friend.
But I have female friends.

Speaker 7 (16:31):
Okay, but you don't have like that one female you know,
I don't.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
Have the one that I'm just hanging out with all
the time and hey, don't worry about I'm going to
Vegas with her.

Speaker 7 (16:38):
Yeah, I don't have that, no, right, So I'm not
saying that platonic relationships can't exist, just that.

Speaker 4 (16:43):
One really really really close.

Speaker 7 (16:44):
Yeah, I'm telling you. Remember when you and your wife
Kelvin have issues, guess who she's talking to. When you,
guys are shortcoming or you don't do something right, guess
who she's telling. So now this is the person for
the outlet of all your shortcomings. And guess what was
there waiting in the bullpen like the Dodgers for that
one game to throw away?

Speaker 4 (17:03):
So who is it there? So that's what is the
best for you? No bestie for you.

Speaker 7 (17:08):
I'm telling you because I know as well. To have
somebody that close but also a significant other means you
are not that invested in your significant other. For example,
I have a mother and a sister, right, they have
filled that role for women's needs until I was dating
my girl now. So that's why I'm telling you You've
got to be careful about that green friend.

Speaker 3 (17:27):
He like cleave to your woman, leave the home and
cleave whatever it is, that's what you did, all right, Rob,
come on, who you got?

Speaker 4 (17:32):
All right?

Speaker 1 (17:33):
No trainer person. I'm with Rob Jeef because they're stretching
you out. They see you and it can be outfit
you know what I mean in there. But yeah, I
don't want would have a trainer.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
Yes you can be trained out here in the stream,
but I don't want her to have it. Can you
have a female trainer? Yeah I can, so they can
stretch you out. They can stretch you out, be fair.

Speaker 8 (17:57):
I'm with Rod because anything where you might get sweaty
with this person, I'm just gonna leave it there. It's
gonna happen. Look at y'all jell types.

Speaker 3 (18:07):
But then you can get getting stretched out and put
over a mat and worked out like that.

Speaker 4 (18:11):
Huh No. But the only problem is she might be
getting work. They can like a burger from Yeah, that's
the problem. They can get some extra sets with you.

Speaker 1 (18:18):
Huh.

Speaker 4 (18:19):
You can be overre curling women.

Speaker 5 (18:20):
But they being for the ground and pound workout. Let's
just get back, let's just get back down there. No,
he's gonna be doing John Yoda.

Speaker 7 (18:27):
I'm surrounded by men that don't work out. That's why
they're worried about this.

Speaker 3 (18:30):
That's what I'm half with you have with him, you know,
I like half work out, all right? My answer, Bestie
to Rob G's point, I feel like I've known if
hel what's up?

Speaker 4 (18:38):
Man, I'm cool with him.

Speaker 3 (18:39):
He's at the house or you know, he comes to
the girls, my daughter's birthdays. Like I know, I'm cool
with that personal trainer. I feel like I'm alright because
he's getting her in shape and it's kind of a
place where everyone is.

Speaker 4 (18:51):
That's what I'm saying. So I'm okay with that him
and Tim Duncan on Line one.

Speaker 7 (18:54):
Tim Duncan is online because I'm saying this, Calvin, if
she's able to fall for a personal trainer, trust me,
it would have happened somewhere.

Speaker 4 (19:00):
Oh yeah, Looie's right.

Speaker 5 (19:02):
You know, we also must find that the personal trainer
is like a regular personal trainer at La Fitness, not
like the gizelle type.

Speaker 3 (19:09):
Where they come to you. You know, I'm just gonna generalize.
If he's all brown, he ain't got no brain, and
she needs a brain. She needs somebody just just walking
around buff So I'm okay with that stylist or whatever
may My baby look good.

Speaker 4 (19:20):
I'm let my baby look good.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
I'm gonna end it with that work, bestie, the work,
because think about this, you spr work like eight to
ten hours on that's more time than you spend with
your significant other, your girlfriend or your your your wife.
So that's eight nine ten hours. Just yeah, what they said,
what tell me more? That's crazy. Let's go do that.

(19:43):
What So I'm gonna go him now that that's where
I'm going to befen. You said, George, with the trainer, Yeah,
definitely the trainer.

Speaker 8 (19:50):
You people get sweat, Yeah, anybody gets sweaty can lead
to a lot of other things.

Speaker 4 (19:53):
Yeah, right, be fin you keep telling us you sweat
when you engage. We got it. We got it the
first time. Brother, All right, there you have it. One
got to go.

Speaker 3 (19:59):
So we got the the personal trainer for a couple
of you, we got the uh. For me, it was
the work I and it's kind in the same space.

Speaker 7 (20:05):
It's the same.

Speaker 4 (20:06):
It's the best best friend for you and for me.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
That's not what helped my divorce along. It was Tiger Woods.
Who's the one who hurt?

Speaker 3 (20:14):
Yeah, I was so mad at you that you're worried
about the wrong club. You're supposed to worry about your
own collim you're all night, iron man? What were you
doing there?

Speaker 4 (20:23):
All right? So, in the spirit of the segment, does
that mean they're all going?

Speaker 3 (20:26):
Then we pretty much kicked it. Yeah, we got them
all out. Okay, I can not have any male. The
only friend you got is me and maybe your daddy.

Speaker 4 (20:35):
That's it.

Speaker 3 (20:35):
That's all you got. And if we got a son,
all right, there you go. That's all the test I
throw you need in your life.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Odd Couple
with Chris Brussard and Rob Parker weekdays at seven pm
Eastern four pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the

Speaker 1 (20:52):
You know what, I just want to see this kid
pushed to six or seven like it would have been
a shame if it was a four game suite.

Speaker 7 (20:58):
Sure, I'm sure Kelvin agrees with you.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
There it to go seven.

Speaker 3 (21:01):
Now, I can tell you what team it's okay, shape,
But then I tell you what team I want to win.

Speaker 4 (21:06):
Over there, he's shaking in his boots because if.

Speaker 3 (21:09):
I guarantee you that it would be seven games but
your team would win, you'd take that. Oh you wouldn't
take me. So that's all I'm saying. But you know
you can't walking around here looking like all jokes sign.
He walked in there and they thought he think he
was Edman or something like. You look, you got the
full on Dodger money, got the pants. He's a Dodger fan.
Now that's an understatement. He's got the hat, the pants, everything,

(21:29):
He's got his stance. But once you see the swing,
then you realize that you ain't lying. Plus he little
he little light man. Baseball players a little heavier than
you think you've.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
Ever been up on it.

Speaker 3 (21:38):

Speaker 1 (22:13):
All right, so we're we mentioned Freddie Freeman and what
he's been able to do. And here's the thing, and
you know this because you talked about it. You said
this morning is show Hay has been a no show.
Let's just be no show Otani is what we're calling them.
Through the first four games. Yes, his stats been right,
all identical to Aaron Judges and Aaron Judges getting killed

(22:37):
because the Yankees are down three to one, because Freddy
Freeman has saved Otani. Because you know, if it was
reverse and the Yankees were up three to one and
show Hay was two for twelve and struggling at the plate.

Speaker 4 (22:51):
People would be like, oh, here we go.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
He was great in the regular season, but now he's
wilting under the pressure of the postseason. Because that's the
picture that people paint when you don't perform in the postseason.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
So as we know, and you can put it on
a T shirt. Everybody says it in sports. Winning cures all.
And so we kind of go, oh, man o Toani,
we need you, and then we want to get and
you forgot that he didn't perform per se. What I
also thinks hurt Aaron Judge is this is as great
as the ride has been for Otani and the Dodgers.

(23:23):
This is Otani's first postseason and the first postseason he
gets into and obviously is not singularly because of him.

Speaker 4 (23:30):
They go to the World Series.

Speaker 3 (23:32):
Whereas I think Aaron Judge, prior to last night, he
was back in one fifty in the postseason one fifty,
so you've kind of seen this before. It was like,
rightfully so justifiably so the criticism of Mookie coming into
this postseason, all right, Mookie MVP type season again, here
you go, yeah, yeah, yeah, what are you gonna do
in the postseason?

Speaker 1 (23:52):
Well, and remember coming off of last year when he
got knocked out in the first round and him and
Freddy Freeman.

Speaker 4 (23:57):
Had one one hit.

Speaker 1 (23:58):
Yeah, between the two of them, nobody can imagine that
because everything that Freddie swing's on is going out of
the park. But last year when they lost to the
Diamondbacks who wind up going to the World Series, probably
in the Dodgers spot.

Speaker 3 (24:11):
To truth be told, it was ugly last year, and
so I think that's what addeds to the Aaron Judge
criticism is that here we go again, fifty five fifty
eight home run, sixty home runs, doesn't matter. You're not
showing up and the guy right behind you is hitting
home runs like crazy and stanton. So I think that's

(24:31):
maybe why sho Hay is kind of getting less criticism.
This is his first go at it and his team
is winning, so we're kind of forgetting some time.

Speaker 4 (24:38):
All right. We have like two questions here? What are
those questions?

Speaker 1 (24:41):
So so Dave Roberts giving up Game four, don't ask
Alex did you feel like he gave up Game four?
Or you were cool with the way that he maneuvered
that so that he would be strong for Game five
against Garrett Cole And also has show Hay, or as
I call him, no Show got off?

Speaker 4 (25:01):
Has he been gotten off? Has he been let off
the hook?

Speaker 1 (25:04):
Because Freddy Freeman is hitting the ball out of the
park and everybody's excited about that.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
But he has the same batting average as Aaron Judge.
I call him Aaron. I'm judging you got nicknames? I
call him Aaron. I'm judging you, all right?

Speaker 1 (25:18):
Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, As we get
ready and set for Game five in dumb bronx d
A b r O N.

Speaker 4 (25:26):
Who comes out tonight?

Speaker 3 (25:28):
You had Fat Joe, then you had a shanty Who
you think is coming out today, joh Rul because I
mean they're staying in that whole little family Jah rule right, yeah,
I mean he's that family, the whole IRV Gotti murdering
Fat Joe.

Speaker 4 (25:41):
What about jay Z showed up? Jay Z?

Speaker 3 (25:45):
Listen, if jay Z shows up, I'm telling you right now,
we're coming back to la if he if Alicia Keys,
if I'm the mayor, mayor got his own troubles going
on now, But a call right now. You don't even
know there's a game going on.

Speaker 4 (25:59):
Nervous delly.

Speaker 3 (26:00):
Now I'm making a call. The bat phone has got
them citing. I'm calling Jay and Alicia Keys. I need
andw y'all, I need that. I need it for case emergency.

Speaker 4 (26:11):
