Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Tom Berducci will join us. He was on the call
that would be the Fox presentation of the World Series,
and he'll join us. Coming up here shortly. Best and
Worst of the weekend, as we always do every Monday.
What you saw that you like didn't like? Operator Tyler
sitting by eight seven seven three DP show. We've been
talking so much baseball. I asked Dylan if he could

(00:25):
cook up some hot dogs, and then all of a sudden,
like you know, you're going to have an end of
the season hot dog, and I thought, okay, ten thirty
in the morning, that's not too early. All of a sudden,
Seaton walks out because you can't miss the smell of
hot dogs here in the man cave seat and goes okay.
I said, hey, we can throw a couple on there.
All of a sudden, I turn around. Seaton's got a

(00:47):
hot dog, don't mind if I do. Yeah, can't pass
that up. All right, So we'll have a pull question
for the final hour of the program. We've done a
recap with college football, the NFL. The Commanders will be
without Jayden Daniels. I'm going to guess for the rest
of the year with a dislocated elbow, non throwing. But

(01:08):
still I can't imagine a scenario where they would be
bringing him back. I didn't think he should have been
in the game at thirty eight to seven. And I
don't like this. Hey, he's kind of working back getting
some reps. You've been banged up. I don't want you
coming back in a game we can't win just because
you want to get reps. You want to get reps,

(01:28):
get reps in practice. Because Seattle's defense knew that he
was going to pass and they were going after him,
and I didn't like it at all. Now he's out
for the rest of the year. It looks like we
say good morning. If you're watching on Peacock. That's our
streaming partner, NBA on NBC and Peacock Monday nights, and
then you also have Tuesdays in primetime. It's Coast to

(01:49):
Coast Tuesday on NBC and Peacock. Tom Berducci, Sports illustrated
senior baseball writer, New York Times bestselling author, co host
of the Book of Joe podcasts with Joe Madden, did
a great job at the World Series. Tom if I said,
what do you think is going to happen in game seven?
Before Game seven unfolded, you would have said.

Speaker 3 (02:10):
What, I liked Toronto going into that game because they
were a home But I did not expect that, yes,
ronobe Yamamoto was going to pitch in that game at all.

Speaker 4 (02:23):
I really didn't.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
It wasn't on my Bengo card that after pitching Game
six he'd come back the next day.

Speaker 4 (02:29):
That was a difference maker.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
What do you think was the turning point in the game.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
Well, the home run by Migi Rojas, right, I mean,
the Jays are two outs away from the first World
Series in thirty two years. You got your closer on
the mound. It's a three to two count, number nine hitter.
I understand you can't walk him because Otani is on deck.
He's the go ahead run, right, so you have to
throw a strike. What I didn't like was throwing a slider.

(02:55):
When you have to throw a strike, that's a strike
to strike pitch. I'd rather just throw a fastball challenge him,
and it was a hanger. I mean, it's a home
run that you didn't see coming, kind of like that
Roger Davis home run in sixteen. This happened to be
two outs from the end of the game, so that
was the turning point. And after that, I just thought

(03:16):
the air came out of the building. It was gonna
be tough to beat the Dodgers at that point, giving
up such a renewed life right there. But listen, that
was a stunning as stunning of a home run as
I've seen in the World Series.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Mickey Rojas, you bring up a great point because you
got Otani on deck and you're just kind of thinking,
I just got to get through this. He's the ninth hitter.
Let me just get through this, so I don't have
to worry, you know, about Otani with anybody on and
I mean, there were so many little moments here, but
that's what makes up these great games. It's small moments

(03:50):
that can lead to big moments as well. And that's
what was fascinating about this is both teams had those moments.
You either capitalized or.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
You totally dan.

Speaker 3 (04:02):
I think that's what made this series and especially this
game stand apart. I've been at a lot of great games, obviously,
but there you can go back, like watching a great movie, right,
you go back and watch it a second, third, fourth time,
It never gets old because you go back and you
rEFInd something like, oh, I forgot about that point or
that line in this movie. How about Andy Piez going

(04:23):
into the game, Dan, I'm sitting there next to the
Dodgers dugout. Andy Piez was as involved in the game
as I was. He's sitting there with his hoodie on,
just watching the game, and all of a sudden, Danny Leeman,
the bench coach, runs down there and says, get in there.

Speaker 4 (04:39):
This is Bassis loaded ninth I think.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
And he just ripped off his hoodie, hadn't warned up
at all, runs out the center field and two batters later,
there he is playing Superman, jumping over Keik Hernandez to
literally save the game. Right, that looked, for all intents
and purposes like Ernie Clement was gonna be the World
Series MVP, the Jays were gonna be World champions, and
he fl eyes out of nowhere.

Speaker 4 (05:01):
I mean he must have ran more than one hundred
feet to get that ball.

Speaker 3 (05:04):
That was one of the great World Series catches of
all time because of what was on the line.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
But was it Okay, we know the result, but was
it a smart play by him? In the moment.

Speaker 4 (05:16):
You know, they tell you it's the center fielder.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
Go get what you can get, right, So I think
it was in the moment because he was fearless going
after that ball. I'm not sure that KEYK would have
caught it over the shoulder with his face about five
feet from the wall at that point, So I think
it was a play that had to be made. There
was a risk obviously they collide and the ball falls.
I mean, what a way that would have been to

(05:38):
loser World Series. But I love the aggressiveness from that kid.
He didn't hit it all in the postseason. He's got
to play. He'll remember forever.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yeah, I agree with you centerfield. You have control, you
have license to go after because of the angle. And
that's why I thought, okay, you may bowl over your teammate,
but you have a better angle than he and he
ended up holding on to it. One thing that I
thought was so small, Well, maybe it wasn't touched on

(06:08):
as much that you have that you know, I kft,
he's not off third base, Tom and on contact I'm
going I just didn't know why he didn't have a
little bit more of a lead, knowing if it's a
ground ball, you're going, and I thought that it became
it shouldn't have been close at home. I thought that

(06:29):
he would have been down the line a little bit.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Yeah, it's a great point, and in real time I
had the same reaction. But looking at it again, and
a lot of teams teach this in that situation, shorter
lead at third because the worst thing that can happen
is what a line drive and you get doubled up
and the game's over. So there's more of the emphasis
on a better secondary than getting the longer primary lead

(06:52):
at third base. He's a smart baseball player. I am
not going to question him on that. I think he was.

Speaker 4 (06:58):
We already saw a line drive.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
Monthy in that game. I don't know how he caught.
Other than self defense. You cannot get doubled up at
third base. I think that's the right way to go.
You can argue he could have been a little more aggressive,
but on this case, I'll air on the side of
IKF being a smart ball player making the right call.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Was that the greatest game that you've ever been a
part of.

Speaker 3 (07:20):
I have a hard time putting it up above Game
seven of twenty sixteen. You know, I still go back
to that seventeen minute rain delay, that just that pregnant
pause in the game.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
You're like, the game.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
Is tied in the World Series, and we're gonna stop
and have a seventeen minute timeout with two teams that
had won forever. And that was another game, by the way,
that had so many twists and turns. It wasn't just
the end, it was all the pivot points in the
course of the game where history was changing minute by minute.
This is right up there, though, because again I think
there was so much to absorb in this game. Dan,

(07:53):
actually the whole series where I don't know how many
times you thought this, like the Dodgers are gonna win
the World Series. World Series, right, Yeah, I mean, you
couldn't have written any better as far as Cliffhangers go.

Speaker 2 (08:06):
And Dave Roberts had one of the great late inning
managerial games in the history of the sport. Everything he
did worked totally, I thought all throughout.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
I mean, when you think about Will Smith, you know
he moved Will Smith up to the two hole because
the Jays kept walking show hey Otani and Mooky wasn't
swinging a hot bat and Will Smith was, so I
think it was Game five he moved will Smith up
to number two, where he just doesn't hit, but it
was because he was the hotter bat. He's the one
who hits the home run, two outs, bases empty in
the eleventh. Getting Mookie down in the order for Game six,

(08:44):
he said, I want him in an RBI spot. Maybe
they'll help him relax his swing for a base hit.
He had the huge two strike, two run, two out hit.
I really won the game for him in six, So
you're right the defense there, Miggy. I mean just the
idea that you know, he told before Game five. Before
Game six, he put Miguel Rojas in the game, who

(09:04):
had had a base hit for a month, literally thirty.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
One days since he had a base hit.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
Put him in the game because, as he told us,
he's such a glue guy.

Speaker 4 (09:13):
I means so much to this team.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
I couldn't see going home losing the World Series without
giving him a chance to play. I had nothing to
do with the analytics or numbers. It's a look in
the eye that says, if I'm going down, I'm going
down with this guy. And not just a home run,
but how about his defensive plays.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
I mean the pick he made on.

Speaker 3 (09:31):
Key K's double play in Game six to end the game. Wow,
that was a great play. And then of course you
mentioned the play thrown out ikf at the plate, So
you're right. I mean, Dave Roberts made some you know,
I call them blink moments there and the course of
a game where you have to make a quick decision,
and it seemed like, if not all of them, most
of them certainly worked out in his favor.

Speaker 4 (09:52):
I thought he had a great series.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
Tom Berducci, Sports Illustrated senior baseball writer Fox Sports on
MLB Otani's legacy. I don't know. Did he get a
boost here in the last month?

Speaker 5 (10:06):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (10:06):
Yeah, I mean greatest game ever, you know, tense strikeout
game with with three home runs.

Speaker 4 (10:13):
Yeah, I mean the eighteen in game nine times on.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
Base, the greatest World Series game of all time turned
in by one.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
Point on base. That's gonna be tough to be. Two
home runs, four extra base hits for the first time
at one hundred and eight years in the World Series. Yeah,
I mean, and then he goes out and pitches the
next day seventeen hours later.

Speaker 4 (10:36):
Now I thought he was gassed.

Speaker 6 (10:38):
Dan.

Speaker 3 (10:39):
I mean, I really think there's a point where even Otani.
Uh is showing e on the on the on the
gas tank, but uh, he pitched it as well as
he could. But I think his legacy Dan is cemented
again by he's a winning ballplayer. You know, he joins
the Dodgers and they've won two World Championships since he

(11:00):
got to pitch in the World Series for the first time.
This was the first time we saw a show. Hey,
you know, pitching and hitting in a World Series. And
last year he had the shoulder issue early against the Yankees.
He was certainly compromised there. But yeah, he keeps going
further and further away from anybody else who ever played
the game.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
It's not sacrilegious to say this is.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
The best baseball player who has ever played this game,
and he keeps making it more certain.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
If Babe Ruth knew that Otani would do this later on,
would Babe have stayed a pitcher and a hitter.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
That is a great question, because you just reminded me
of this Baseball Raiders dinner in New York years ago.
It was after Katseko goes forty to forty and Mickey
Mantle was at the dinner and it was late in
the night, so you can imagine how Mickey was keeping
himself hydrated. So after Katziko got the award, Mickey actually
wanted to go back up to the podium and he said, listen,

(11:58):
if you guys, if I knew you guy makes such
a big deal out of forty forty, I'd have.

Speaker 4 (12:03):
Done it like five times.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
But you know, going back to the Babe, you know,
he actually said he really never had two full seasons
like start to finish of two way play, and he
actually said after the second one, it's just too hard.

Speaker 7 (12:19):
You know.

Speaker 3 (12:19):
I think his heart's based on what I've read, was
really into hitting and that's what that was his love
where I think Show has DNA begins with pitching, and
baby Bruce said, it's just too hard physically to keep up.
I want to hit, and you know, I don't want
to feel, you know, sore, armed or whatever play in
the outfield because there was no DH so I don't
think the Babe would do it. The question is how

(12:41):
long can show Hey do this right? And watching the
physical wear and tear on him, especially after that eighteen
in the game, Dan, I started to think we better
enjoy this because I don't think it came met lasts
much longer. But then I asked Dave Roberts and he said,
I don't see any reason why he can't keep doing
this two way pitch and hitting. It was twenty twenty

(13:01):
five starts a year for years and years and years.

Speaker 4 (13:05):
This guy is just amazing.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
And Vlad Guerrero, you know what an incredible series and
a losing effort, and you saw how emotional he was
after the game he was in, he was in tears.
He did everything, just about everything possible to win a
World Series.

Speaker 3 (13:23):
I'm glad you brought him up, Dann, because we knew
he was a great hitter. I think this whole postseason,
especially the World Series, pointed out what a great baseball
player this guy is. I mean, I remember a game
when Max Schurzer was pitching in Seattle in the ALCS,
and he's got a problem tipping his pitches and vladd
was the one of the first inning who stopped him

(13:44):
and went to the mound and say, hey, watch your hands.
Here runners are picking it up. There was a throw
at third base. Barger threw the runner out at third
instead of throwing home. It was Lad who told him
to throw it a third not to home. The defensive plays.
I counted three great ones he made just in Game seven,
and you're right.

Speaker 4 (14:03):
You saw the emotion on his face.

Speaker 3 (14:05):
How much this meant to him, The swings he put
on the baseball Dan, if you go back and look
at it, this wasn't a guy trying to hit home runs.
This was a guy doing whatever he could to get
on base, shortening up sometimes even early in counts, sitting
on pitches.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
I was blown away by Vlad and his all around game.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
Great stuff. Are you now off? You're not doing anything?

Speaker 3 (14:31):
I wish I could say that, but no, it's starting
at MLB Network. We start Awards week next week, start
aligning up the finalists for the awards tonight on MLB Network.
Of course, everybody wants to wait for the al NBP vote.
That's going to be a cliffhanger, Judge and Raleigh. So
I'm not getting on a plane.

Speaker 4 (14:51):
So that's big.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
Thanks again, Tom, Hey, my pleasure. All right. That's Tom Berducci.
He was there with Fox Sports MLB with the World
Series and co host of the Book of Joe podcasts
with Joe Madden. You start to look at these teams
that won six and seven on the road, in the
World Series. So you have the Dodgers there, the Nationals

(15:13):
did this, the Cubs in twenty sixteen, the Pirates in
seventy nine, then you go back to the Tigers in
sixty eight, the Yankees in fifty eight. It doesn't happen
very often, but I don't know how often we have
a Game seven in the World Series to begin with,
and then a team having to win two games on
the road to win the World Series. But the Dodgers

(15:36):
from start to finish, they were supposed to be here,
They got there, and they completed it. So Los Angeles
will be celebrating. Magic Johnson gets to sell I think
this is the eighteenth title with all of his sports
that he's either played or been part of ownership. That
sound right, Martvin, That is correct. Eighteen he said it himself. Yeah, well,

(15:58):
good for him. It's nice that something good is happening
for Magic Johnson. There, it's take a break. More phone
calls coming up back after this on The Dan Patrick Show.

she's barking at herself while she's there With. Tyler she
doesn't know that she's looking at, herself but she's Protecting
tyler from. Herself dogs are so, great, Yeah.

Speaker 14 (32:38):
Paulin do dogs understand words or the tone of the?
Words when you say you gotta go?

Speaker 2 (32:44):
Out they?

Speaker 14 (32:45):
Understand or do they match it up over the?

Speaker 2 (32:48):
Years how does that?

Speaker 14 (32:48):
Work my dog responds to. Things but you guys know
more about dogs THAN.

Speaker 2 (32:52):
I would think that they understand. Language there's certain words
that they. Understand tone plays a big, part because if
you know you say something that's, nice you usually say
it in a nice. WAY i don't know if you
could say something mean spirited but in a nice, way
and then the dog's tail would be wagging like you're

(33:14):
the worst dog in the. World you are, worthless.

Speaker 8 (33:20):
You.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
Know to the, CONTRARY i don't know if you could
say something in a mean spirited. Way but it's you're
the best. Dog you're the best. Dog you want to
get hit by?

Speaker 12 (33:32):
Car want to get hit, Like, no let's go for a,
walk and that hit by a, car they'd still be
excited about.
