Mark Thompson's of the house. Please being seated. Everyone, Thank you.
I'm humbled. We're lucky to get you. You're the voiceover
guy for the world.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
Tim, it was a big, big moment for me. Thank
you for being so so all my It was family
at KFI.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Was very supportive. It was nice. Yeah. Anyway, heavy Dodgers,
my man, heavy Dodgers, big show, Heavy Dodgers. Make her
do it today, right, The Dodgers could win today and
then they win the World Series, and man, New York
just has no answer to anything the Dodgers are thrown
at him. None got it.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
You know, it feels that the Mets played the Dodgers tougher.
Then so did the Padres.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yeah, you know the Padres and the Mets I think
are better than the Yankees too. I think whoever came
out of the National League is the better squad, better team. Apparently,
you know, they had to beat who the Yankees have
to beat Cleveland and then before that Houston. I believe
I don't remember who they played, but Alex Stone is
with us. That guy is great, Alex. Nice to see you, buddy.
Speaker 5 (01:08):
I cannot believe him. On the Boy with the Voice
of the World series. Can you give us a line?
Just do it like you did tonight.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
The plus was great plus plus. There was the turn right.
It was all the all the stuff and I'll find
it for you. Aaron Judge there was something about that.
And then then it was sort of a plus. Oh
that was a Fernando an who brought us Fernando Man.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
So I'll tell you this, the this got an inside.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
It should have snu So when I first did it,
I said, the man who gave us Fernando Mania and
he taught me. He said, no, do it with Fernando Mania, Fernando,
not Fernando. He's like, oh, that's actually a pretty good note,
because I think I would have done it like the
you know what I mean, the Americanized version or the
Anglo version is a Fernando and so I did Fernando Mania.
(01:55):
So that was about the Otherwise there were very few notes.
They were very Did you do.
Speaker 6 (01:58):
It from home? Did you have to go in somewhere?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I did it for through Yeah, my studio at home
right exactly did he was? It was it puzzling that
that he had to tell you how to say Fernando's name.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
I was, I was thinking later, I think it was
just a good I've always said Fernando because I sort
of said the Spanish way they say the abay, Yeah,
the abaway Fernando. But he was right, it's really Fernando.
I mean, that's the way most people say it.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
Oh man, I'm gonna Freddy Freeman has been amazing in
this thing.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Straight home runs by Freddy Freeman in five straight games
in the World Series. He's incredible.
Speaker 5 (02:36):
He had the story with his kid getting sick over
the summer and then getting injured in September and not
knowing if he was going to be playing in the postseason.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
It's all incredible. It was wild.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
If you want to bet the Yankees it's plus one thousand,
tim What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Oh so it's ten times.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
I've thought about that. Last night, I'm like, now's the
time to put the money out of it. You know what,
you're gonna lose it.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
But by the way, why don't they knock the last
two zero ros off? Because that's that's all you know,
It's confusing to everybody. Yeah, knock the last two zero's
off that, you know, So plus eight hundred is eight
times plus seven fifty is seven point five times.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
The Yankees are not favored tonight the Dodgers, Is that right?
Continue to be favored on the road.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Yeah, on the road, that's wild.
Speaker 6 (03:19):
And if they win tonight, we get a parade win Friday.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
I don't know when. I think the parade Saturday, I heard,
but maybe it's Friday. I don't know. I don't know.
All right, so let's talk about the airlines. You got
a big scoop for us, right.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Yeah, so as of this week now, if you are
on a flight that is canceled or if it is
delayed over three hours. Three hours are more domestically, I
think it's five hours internationally, And if you don't eventually
end up taking that flight, you know, people are like,
well it was delayed three hours, but then I took
another flight on United or on Delta.
Speaker 6 (03:49):
Then you don't get your money back.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
But if you say, look, I don't want to go
on this it is delayed or if it's been canceled,
then they've got to give you your money back and
not do where you got to call and wait on
hold and say, hey, I want a refund.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
It's got to be automatic.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
It can't be.
Speaker 5 (04:05):
Vouchers or credits or airline miles that they have to
automatically when you're on a canceled or delayed flight and
you choose not to go, that they give your money
back on your credit card. And this was something that
was proposed months ago, and we talked about a little
bit back then, but they've gone through the whole rules
making process and figuring out what it's going to be.
(04:26):
And so within seven days, if you decide you're not
going or they tell you you're not going on that flight,
that you got to get your money back. And this
really comes to light from during the pandemic, when remember
when flights are being canceled and people couldn't go to Europe,
couldn't go to Asia, couldn't go to Australia, and then
the airlines were like, well, sorry, you spent two thousand dollars,
(04:46):
but you're going to get a flight voucher that you
can use within a year. And then people still in
a year weren't going and they had to extend those.
So none of that's going to be allowed any longer
and under the new rule, this is the DOT was
doing this Barb transportation and Pete buddhaged saying, look, the
airlines had to do it. We've seen so far is
as we have been tougher with airlines, airlines have leaned
(05:09):
into responding to that, sometimes even claim some credit for
the benefits that we're making them provide consumers, which you know,
as long as the consumers get that benefit, they can
say whatever they'd like.
Speaker 6 (05:20):
Yeah, he goes.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
Look they're advertising on this some of the airlines now
and on some of the other things that they're mandating
that they can advertise all they want as long as
they do it. And it goes beyond that too, though.
If you paid upgrade and don't get it, if you
pay to check your bags and they don't arrive in
a timely manner, if you pay for Wi Fi on
board and it doesn't work. We've all had that at
some point where it's just so slow it's not usable.
(05:42):
They now buy the rules of the DOT, they've got
to refund you the full amount of it, and then
you don't pay good.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
And they absolutely should. I don't know if you saw
this all. This is sort of a related story. But
Jet Blue, Southwest Airlines, I think Alaska they're all getting
together where you can now use your miles on other airline.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Oh interesting, have you seen that?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
And so you know, so that's going to help out.
And I think it's the airlines trying to help other
airlines to burn off miles because everybody had a billion
miles from the pandemic and we couldn't use them, and
now everyone's using them. And these planes, you know these
nobody's paying anything on these flights, you know.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
Nility to them. Yeah, I mean it sits in their books.
Is that is money that they know that they may
have to pay at some point to put you on
their plane or if you're going to buy something with
them or whatever you're gonna do that they got to
deal with those.
Speaker 6 (06:31):
They want them off their books.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
So all right, I found them. Mark Thompson voiceover. All, Right,

Last night, I got nervous. I didn't want to watch
the game on TV because I wanted to be around Homers,
you know. I wanted to be on the I'm gonna
(13:35):
listen to the radio of La Dodgers because those guys,
even though they pretend they're not Dodger fans, I know
they both are and I'd like, I want to hear
the Dodger game from the Dodger announcers. And nothing against Fox. No,
I watched it on TV, but I like listening to
Rick Monday. Okay. So I got in the car and
I was going to go to Low's, but I figured
(13:57):
I'm going to get to the Empire Lows in five minutes.
So I'm gonna here five minutes of the show and
then I'm gonna listen to the rest of the car.
So I said, screw it, I'm gonna go to the
Low's in Valencia. And I drove for thirty minutes to Valencia.
This is great, listen just to listen to the radio.
I love it. And so I'm driving out to Valencia.
I get into Low's. Right around there, there was a
(14:19):
really terrible ending the bottom of the seventh The Yankees
almost blew it up and scored and got all crazy.
Every picture that came in went to a full count.
So I get to Low's. I go into Low's. I'm
in there for about ten minutes. I do my you know,
looking around for deals and you know, I go to
the halloween section to see if there's any you know,
signature pieces I could buy there for next Halloween. And
(14:40):
then I go by the gardening section and somebody had
left a hose on or a hose broke out there,
and there was waters squirting everywhere. So I go out
there to see what was going on. And I go
out and it wasn't a hose. It was pouring rain
in Valencia, pouring, and then that whole front, that whole storm,
(15:01):
that host cell, that whole cell went straight east and
attacked Crozier in class. Sure of course, yeah, you got
it bad out there. Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 8 (15:10):
We had the window and door open and it just
all of a sudden, you hear just this rumble come
in really fast, and Jane gets up, she goes, is
that rain to go? No, not that fast, and it
within five seconds, all of a sudden, it was pouring.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
It was unbelievable. I mean it looked I could hear
it on the Low's roof and it sounded like a
freight train.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
And it's like we were driving back from Las Vegas
and it started raining a little bit, and Courtney said, oh,
it's is it raining? And I said, honey, it's a
little sprinkle. It's nothing. I mean, look at the pavement.
It's not even wet, right. And then as you guys
just said, the sky just opened.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
It.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
It was it was like biblical rain. I mean, it
was like I was expecting.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
And I even said to her, I guess it was
wrong about the sprinkles thing.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
It was great. It was incredible. So I left Low's.
I'm still listening to the to the broadcast, and I
go to In and Out up in Valencia. Uh and
or Santa Clarita. I can't figure out what's what is
Santa Clarita in Valencia? Is Valencia and Santa Clariico, I
don't know. So I go to the in and out
up there because I know that that's a good in
and out. In and out different in and outs are
(16:14):
They don't differ by a lot, but they do. There
are different levels of in and out, and the one
out in Valencia near another Lows is one of the
best in and outs ever. I don't know if it's
the people working there. I don't know if they get
fresher buttons. I don't know if they get fresher meat
or whatever it is, but that in and out out
there is spectacular. Went there cheeseburger in the car, still
(16:37):
listening to Rick Monday. I go into a second Low's
because I'm in the Loew's parking lot again. I go
into my second Lows of the night. Come out. It's
the ninth inning. I'm driving around and I and I
and I and I see and I hear that it's
the bottom of the ninth with two outs left, and
(16:57):
then I see that there's a an Applebee's, and I
slide into the Apple beas you can see the last
so I can see the last out, and there's probably
about twenty people in the bar there. Everyone went crazy
and it was kind of cool to be. You know,
there was rain still on the ground. You could smell it.
It was fresh rain. I'm going into an Applebee's, and
I felt like I was in the Midwest, or in
(17:19):
Oregon or in Washington. I didn't feel like I was
in Los Angeles. And I loved it.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Sure, I put all those variables together. Yeah, it really
feels good. It was great, that's really.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
And I drove home and I was tired driving home,
and I was falling asleep. And the only way I
can stay awake when I'm driving and i'm tired is
go really fast. I know it's not recommended, and I
know I feel like an a hole saying that, but
the faster I go, the more I stay awake. And
because I have to, you know, because you don't want
to kill yourself or anybody else, is right. And I
(17:51):
got home and I can't believe the Dodgers are up
three games to zero on the dreaded Pinstripers. The New
York Yankees, they're down three nothing.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
It is wild because there's sort of this uh, I
mean you said it. Maybe the American League isn't as
strong as we think they are.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Maybe not. But what the year I was born, nineteen
sixty three, the Yankees got swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers,
and that that was I don't know, October second through
the seventh or so, and and and it was. It
was the year I was born, the Yankees got swept
by the Dodgers. And then a short you know, twenty
(18:28):
five years later, you could do the math, they might
sweep the Yankees again. How about that?
Speaker 4 (18:34):
You uh, you really point out kind of the literary
nature of this whole. How about that there's almost a
poetic justice to that.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
That's right. Yeah. And Fernando Valenzuela passed away at age
sixty three. I was born in sixty three. Oh Wow,
this is getting eerie. The gate, the first score, the
first game sixty three. Oh my god, this is this
is freaking me out right now. It's why wild. And
then Kirk Gibson's home run hit around the exact same
(19:05):
time as Freddy Freeman's home run eight thirty seven PM. Yeah,
that was pretty wild too. Turns out it's wrong it's
eight thirty seven, eight thirty nine, but it's close. Well,
that's still close. I get it. A lot of people
sent misinformation around saying his exact same time. It wasn't
it was off by a couple minutes or mid half.
Who cares. All Right, we're live, we're gonna be talking
about the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
Who were the presidents that died of the same didn't
John Adams and Jefferson died at the same time?
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Is that it? Ah? Remember the Yeah?
Speaker 6 (19:31):
It was odd?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
No, I'm questioning that about that, Like the Freddy Freeman thing.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
That game starts in thirty eight minutes, Yeah, thirty eight minutes.
That game starts, and the Dodgers could be World Series
champs by the first hour of Mo Kelly Show tonight.
That's crazy. He's gonna be on the air if they
win tonight or tomorrow, he's gonna be on the air.
And if they went on Friday, he's going to be
on the air when they win. He has the only
(19:57):
chance he doesn't have a shot is if they go
to Games seven and he won't be on the air
for Game SEPs. Yeah on Saturday, Man, what an afternoon
Dodgers going for a World Series.
Speaker 7 (20:11):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
We could watch the Dodgers win the World Series starting
in thirty minutes. The game starts in three zero, thirty
minutes from now. I was talking to my contact in
New York. Tim. You know I have contacts in all
the major cities. Sure.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
Apparently the mood there Yankee Stadium it's quiet, Yeah, very quiet.
It's not the kind of exuberance that was displayed in
the last game at Yankee Stadium before they started.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Quiet it is. And when the Dodgers scored two runs
the first inning, that didn't help. Yeah. Yeah, Well look
it's too bad. You know, Yankees got cold, Dodgers got hot. Yeah,
and the Yankees and they can't figure this out. They
can't figure this out at all. Here's our World Series
(21:06):
nineteen fifty five, Dodgers and Yankees, the fifty second edition.
It's Yanks versus Dodgers.
Speaker 9 (21:16):
They had fields and McCoy's a postseason baseball feudon once
again in the fifty second World Series. Sixty four thousand
are at the Yankee Stadium where Casey Stingle and Walt
Alston go with their aces and the opener of the
nineteen fifty five classic. The opposing pitchers are Whitey Ford
for New York and big Don Newcomb for Brooklyn.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
This is the sixth.
Speaker 9 (21:35):
Series between the two clubs, and Mayo Wagner does the
honors as the fans wait to.
Speaker 4 (21:39):
See you actually, and they had to play that music
continued for nine innings.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
They had to play through the music. It seems like
that music was in on everything. Yeah, yeah, that was classic,
all right? Law enforcement braces for a rowdy, rowdy parts crowd.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
The nineteen fifty five series may be marrored by the
nineteen that's right.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
But they they might get a rowdy crowd. I don't know.
Will it be rowdier if the Dodgers win here or
if the Dodgers win in New York. I think it's
rowdier if they win here, I agree, because everybody's out,
everybody's drinking, everyone's at the stadium. Yeah, and then they
get crazy. But I don't know, Man, it could pop
up anywhere. Sure, well, the people who are looking to
(22:24):
create Mayhem are looking to create anywhere.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Yeah, they're enjoining the Dodgers law enforcements ready though for
you kids, with.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
The potential for a four game sweep tonight, that is
only expected to add to the excitement among Dodger fans.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
And when it comes to.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Celebrations, there's a warning from local law enforcement, the Sheriff's Department,
trying to avoid scenes like this one. This was in
East LA last night. Unruly fans took over the intersection
of Atlantic and Olympic cars doing stunts with fans dancing
on the sidewalks and then the crosswalks. There many waving
Dodger flags celebrating last night's Game three win. CHP officers
and Sheriff's deputies eventually blocked several intersections in the area
(23:02):
to prevent.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
That celebration from spreading.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
The Sheriff's Response Team or SRT, which responds to crowd
control and mass arrest. Now they've been standing by each
night the World Series games are played, and that was
the case last night as they quickly moved in.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
But you know, there was nobody arrested. The cops are
letting these kids burn off steam, you know, as long
as they're not you know, breaking into stores or burning
places down. Who cares so what they're doing.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
Donuts, Yeah, Okay, all right, you let them enjoy themselves.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I mean neighbors, if there are any neighbors in the area.
I think if they always worry about that. You know,
it's like, why can't the kids behave though, Tim, because
they've had to blow off steam by taking the car
out and doing donuts. They haven't done it since nineteen
eighty eight.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
Well, you know, Tim, long time. There are a lot
of ways to blow off steam. Yeah, this is one
of them. Why don't they build a church or something.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
And disperse the crowd there now? The Sheriff's Department is
warning fans to celebrate responsibly as the Boys in Blue
continue competing for a.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
World series title.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
We just to enjoy things like this, but with that
comes summer responsibilities. Both our communities and our Sheriff's Department
and local police departments.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
To celebrate responsibility.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
And among the illegal behaviors, the department is condemning vandalism,
unlawful assembly like the one last night, Oh all right, vandalism,
unlawful assembly like the one last night, and public intoxication.
There were no reports of any injuries or arrests at
the popular East La intersection, but as not always the case.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
They go. Walker Buler was great last night pitching and winning.
That guy's the best man, Walker Bueller. And now the
Dodgers start in eighteen twenty about twenty six minutes, twenty
six minutes after the hour, and the Dodgers are going
to be World Series champs if they win tonight, blush
(24:53):
plus big celebration going on in La Plush. But that
would be great if the Dodgers win. I don't care
when they win, as well as they win. If it
goes to games for five, I mean five, six or seven,
I don't care. It'd be fun to have him win
back here, right, it would be great to see it
go to Game seven and the Dodgers win on a
Saturday night in La.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
Well, as long as you knew they were gonna win.
I mean, you know the guy that he's starting to
get nervous if it goes to Game seven. But for
to go to Game seven, they have to lose three
games in a row, right, sure, Yeah, I mean that
means that's a bad sign.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
The Yankees have to sweep all four games against the Dodgers. Yeah,
it's very difficult to do. Sure, it's very difficult. It's
never been done before. How about that. Yeah, it's never
been done before. The team that loses the first three
has never won. It's never even going to Game six.
That's just it's it's unbelievable. So so will it be
(25:47):
over tonight? Tim? I hope? So. I hope the Dodgers
win in tonight. I hope so.
Speaker 8 (25:53):
Kind of you kind of want them to win Game
six because that's November first, and that's Fernando of Alenzuela's birthday.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Oh, would be kind of cool. That's fine, you know what.
I think Fernando would understand. They wanted to know. So
I'm gonna go. I'm going for tonight. Yeah, dig dong
with this guy.
Speaker 7 (26:10):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
There's a code, dude, Yeah, there is the code of silence,
right you know when when uh, and this has nothing
to do with Mark Thompson by when your bookie calls you,
or a guy calls you who is a friend of
yours and you gamble together and you're betting on a horse,
you're going in on a horse. Whatever, his duty is
(26:36):
to say, hey, are you alone? Or your duty is
to say, oh, I'm just sitting here with my wife.
What's going on? And then the conversations about the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
Sure, then he says, hey, right, yeah, I want to
see if you and your wife wanted to go to
the Dodgers game with me.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Yeah. Great that she's there. Yeah, but man, I that's
some tickets. How much are they?
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Well let me go, let me call you later and
all that, you know, but I just want to make
sure you guys are interesting. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's how
that should go down.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Well, you know, Brian Reagan had the the funniest comment.
He called his dad and I can't remember how exactly
it went, but he said, hey, Dad, crazy news. I
took pepto bismo, peptal bismo and my my my waist
(27:24):
is really really black. And his dad goes, hey, Brian,
crazy news. I'm here with the entire board of trustees
and you're on speaker phone. He does it better than next.
He's a stand up comeds. But that's about it, ladies
and gentlemen. The greatest second basement in the history of
(27:45):
the Dodgers. Steve Sacks, Are.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
You sure you got the right guy?
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Oh? Man, what I've been listening to you and Kate's
in the Morning. That's a great show. I think that
should be the permanent show in the morning. Thank you.
Speaker 10 (28:00):
We have such a good time. And Kim is so
good on the air. I listened to him when he's
just amazing. Yeah, so it's a great it's a great,
great time, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Steve Sachs, I you are a long history with the Dodgers.
You know you obviously you knew Fernando Valen's way. You
had to be not only saddened, but shocked. I was
shocked that he passed away. I thought, I thought, you know,
he was sick, but he always made a comeback. This guy.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Yeah, Fernando, I'll tell you guys, he was such a
wonderful person. He was a fierce competitor. One of the
best pictures I ever saw.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
For sure.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
He changed the the fan base here at Dodger Stadium
and just shot.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
It into orbit.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
And he really galvanized the whole community. You have Mexican
American Committee, most most notably and just I mean put
this this organization into a place that they never dreamed
of unless it was Fernando that came along and did it.
It opened everybody's eyes. But Fernando was just absolutely amazing.
I saw him probably two months ago, and I knew
(29:06):
that he was probably in dire straits. He just didn't
look good, you know, like he usually did, and but
he always had a smile.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
On his face.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
And one guy never complained to his him.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
Yeah, you know, I was. You must have. You must
be thrilled to have been You were with eighty one
and eighty eight with the Dodgers, isn't that right, correct? Yeah? Yeah,
but man to have two World Series in a decade
and then I guess a brain fart afterwards where he
went and played for the Yankees. That.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
Yeah, well, I didn't want to leave, but you know,
we couldn't come to an agreement, so you got to go.
You know, you gotta do.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
What you gotta do. I get it, and I even
I supported you when you ran for Congress. I thought
you were going to win. And then I don't know
what happened.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
No, I actually I actually did not run for Congress.
I was, yeah, I thought about it. I formed an
explore Tory committee, but I'd never ran that was anything
for the state Assembly. It wasn't for Congress, but decided
not to do it.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Yeah, and I remember the reason why you decide not
to do it, and I think it's one of the
greatest reasons ever. You said in your official document that
was released you wanted to spend more time with your family.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
That's true, and that's that's one reason why I retired.
Is you know, I knew that my life was going
to be much different. I was, unfortunately going through a divorce,
and my skills were waning as a player. I didn't
want to play at a B level. I think I
could have played in another four or five years, but
I didn't want to play at a level where I
wasn't the best version of myself. And besides, my personal
(30:40):
life was unraveling with my divorce, and I just didn't
want to play anymore. And so I thought the most
important thing to do anyway was to be a dad.
And I'm glad I did it.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
I'm so glad I did it. Steve sass with us
with the Los a former player with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Let me ask you a question. When Major League Baseball
players retiring, and I know you know a lot of them,
how many years after they retired do they think they
can still play the game? Is there a number there,
is it, four or five?
Speaker 8 (31:04):
Ten?
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Yeah, well, you know what, it is true, and after
they get a little bit of a different perspective when
they retire, they get some time off and really rest.
Speaker 10 (31:14):
Some of them probably can.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
I don't know if they can play at the same level.
I know Ryan Sandberg came back and played the guy
I played against for many years with the Cubs. He
retired and came back later and was actually a very
still productive player. So I think there's times some examples
of people that can come back later. But I think
it's a pretty tough thing to do. That's a tough
game to play.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
In eighty one through I think you were you were
at the team eighty three, eighty nine, I believe, or
eighty eight, eighty three, eighty one, eighty eight. I was
eighty one.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
When you mean the Dodgers, I finned seventy eight out
high school, got to the Big Leaks in eighty one,
and then less after eighty eight after the World Series.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
But let me be honest with us, Okay, when you know,
between eighty eighty one and eighty eight, when a grounder
was hitting to Bill Russell, were you just hoping to
God that that ball would get the first base.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
Well, I hope that about myself sometimes in eighty three,
that's for sure. And that was that was just the
damned thing. You know. I went through part a part
of my season in eighty eighty three where I just
I had lost my confidence and it was it was
one of the biggest tests of my life to you know,
(32:25):
to get my confidence back. And when I did that,
that that throwing problem just disappeared. So it was just
about a confidence thing. And but I went through it
for about two months and people still remember it.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
I know, back in nineteen of the late seventies and
early eighties, this probably doesn't happen anymore. But is there
are there any Major League players between innings that go
into the dugout and smoke cigarettes?
Speaker 3 (32:49):
No, there's not that I know of, But you know,
I know when I first got called up, there were
guys on our bench that.
Speaker 10 (32:55):
Were smoking smoking in the dugout.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
Nowadays we hear about, you know, the chewing, and I
think that's that's even probably subsided some but smoking in
that does out as they didn't hide it.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
It was incredible. It's incredible. That is so great, man,
That is right. Where do you live now. Are you
still in California?
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah, I live in Roseville, California, just outside of Sacramento.
I've been here for in the same house for twenty
seven years, and my brother lives across the street.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
Oh that's great.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
It's a pretty good thing. Yeah, yeah, I really like
it here.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
And you had young kids when when you're retired, isn't
that true?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (33:36):
I did.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
I had my two children, Lauren who is thirty seven now,
thirty six, thirty seven. She lives very close to me.
And of course I don't know if you knew about
my son, John, but my son is in heaven. I
lost my son a couple of almost three years, two
and a half years ago. He was a pilot in
the Marine Corps. He was a captain and they had
(33:58):
double engine failure Gonne and four of his service members
lost their lives in the crash. So that that has
been obviously a life changer for me and our families,
and you know, unfortunately, the you know, the world's never
going to be the same. My son was just a
wonderful person, just a perfect dad, great father.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
But it does make total sense that your son, you know,
I saw the way you played with the Dodgers. And
I saw all the charity work you did when you
were with the Dodgers. It makes perfect sense that they
one of your kids, if not both, would have gone
into serving this country as well.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
Yeah, my son loves his country beyond measure.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
And yeah, he.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
He lived for making other people safe. That was his
mission and he was the best.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
Yes, if if the Dodgers do win the World Series,
and I think they will, you know they got four
shots of it. Here, are you going to come down
for the parade?
Speaker 3 (34:54):
I most certainly am coming down for the parade. Yes,
And uh yeah I and yeah, I'm gonna be down
for the parade and I'm going to enjoy it. And
I'm just so happy for these guys. They and I'll
tell you what. I look at these two teams, and
you know I played for both teams, so I'm not
supposed to have a dog in the fight. But I
can tell you the Dodgers are just, in my estimation,
(35:16):
this is my opinion, the Dodgers are just a lot
better than any team in baseball, including the Yankees. So
the Yankees were a marvelous, marvelous team, a tremendous baseball team.
But the Dodgers have got talent like I've never seen.
I've never seen a team this good, I think in
all my years in baseball.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
It's unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (35:35):
Steve.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I really appreciate you coming down, coming on with us,
hopefully see at the parade. And I can't tell you
how many years of pleasure you gave me when I
was just out of high school, you know, watching the
Dodgers eighty one to eighty eight, watching both those World series,
such great memories, and I got to thank you and
that entire team. It was really one of the coolest
times in my life. Thank you so much, guys.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
I appreciate you having me on time.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
All right, Steve Sacks everybody, how grat is Sax. Wow,
he's the best coming down to that parade if they win.
So let's go Dodgers and bring Steve down. And I said, mom,
one of those double decker buses. We are live on
KFI AM six forty Conway Show on demand on the
iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (00:20):
Tim, it was a big, big moment for me. Thank
you for being so so all my It was family
at KFI.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Was very supportive. It was nice. Yeah. Anyway, heavy Dodgers,
my man, heavy Dodgers, big show, Heavy Dodgers. Make her
do it today, right, The Dodgers could win today and
then they win the World Series, and man, New York
just has no answer to anything the Dodgers are thrown
at him. None got it.
Speaker 4 (00:44):
You know, it feels that the Mets played the Dodgers tougher.
Then so did the Padres.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yeah, you know the Padres and the Mets I think
are better than the Yankees too. I think whoever came
out of the National League is the better squad, better team. Apparently,
you know, they had to beat who the Yankees have
to beat Cleveland and then before that Houston. I believe
I don't remember who they played, but Alex Stone is
with us. That guy is great, Alex. Nice to see you, buddy.
Speaker 5 (01:08):
I cannot believe him. On the Boy with the Voice
of the World series. Can you give us a line?
Just do it like you did tonight.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
The plus was great plus plus. There was the turn right.
It was all the all the stuff and I'll find
it for you. Aaron Judge there was something about that.
And then then it was sort of a plus. Oh
that was a Fernando an who brought us Fernando Man.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
So I'll tell you this, the this got an inside.
Speaker 4 (01:34):
It should have snu So when I first did it,
I said, the man who gave us Fernando Mania and
he taught me. He said, no, do it with Fernando Mania, Fernando,
not Fernando. He's like, oh, that's actually a pretty good note,
because I think I would have done it like the
you know what I mean, the Americanized version or the
Anglo version is a Fernando and so I did Fernando Mania.
(01:55):
So that was about the Otherwise there were very few notes.
They were very Did you do.
Speaker 6 (01:58):
It from home? Did you have to go in somewhere?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I did it for through Yeah, my studio at home
right exactly did he was? It was it puzzling that
that he had to tell you how to say Fernando's name.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
I was, I was thinking later, I think it was
just a good I've always said Fernando because I sort
of said the Spanish way they say the abay, Yeah,
the abaway Fernando. But he was right, it's really Fernando.
I mean, that's the way most people say it.
Speaker 5 (02:24):
Oh man, I'm gonna Freddy Freeman has been amazing in
this thing.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Straight home runs by Freddy Freeman in five straight games
in the World Series. He's incredible.
Speaker 5 (02:36):
He had the story with his kid getting sick over
the summer and then getting injured in September and not
knowing if he was going to be playing in the postseason.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
It's all incredible. It was wild.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
If you want to bet the Yankees it's plus one thousand,
tim What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Oh so it's ten times.
Speaker 5 (02:53):
I've thought about that. Last night, I'm like, now's the
time to put the money out of it. You know what,
you're gonna lose it.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
But by the way, why don't they knock the last
two zero ros off? Because that's that's all you know,
It's confusing to everybody. Yeah, knock the last two zero's
off that, you know, So plus eight hundred is eight
times plus seven fifty is seven point five times.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
The Yankees are not favored tonight the Dodgers, Is that right?
Continue to be favored on the road.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Yeah, on the road, that's wild.
Speaker 6 (03:19):
And if they win tonight, we get a parade win Friday.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
I don't know when. I think the parade Saturday, I heard,
but maybe it's Friday. I don't know. I don't know.
All right, so let's talk about the airlines. You got
a big scoop for us, right.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Yeah, so as of this week now, if you are
on a flight that is canceled or if it is
delayed over three hours. Three hours are more domestically, I
think it's five hours internationally, And if you don't eventually
end up taking that flight, you know, people are like,
well it was delayed three hours, but then I took
another flight on United or on Delta.
Speaker 6 (03:49):
Then you don't get your money back.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
But if you say, look, I don't want to go
on this it is delayed or if it's been canceled,
then they've got to give you your money back and
not do where you got to call and wait on
hold and say, hey, I want a refund.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
It's got to be automatic.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
It can't be.
Speaker 5 (04:05):
Vouchers or credits or airline miles that they have to
automatically when you're on a canceled or delayed flight and
you choose not to go, that they give your money
back on your credit card. And this was something that
was proposed months ago, and we talked about a little
bit back then, but they've gone through the whole rules
making process and figuring out what it's going to be.
(04:26):
And so within seven days, if you decide you're not
going or they tell you you're not going on that flight,
that you got to get your money back. And this
really comes to light from during the pandemic, when remember
when flights are being canceled and people couldn't go to Europe,
couldn't go to Asia, couldn't go to Australia, and then
the airlines were like, well, sorry, you spent two thousand dollars,
(04:46):
but you're going to get a flight voucher that you
can use within a year. And then people still in
a year weren't going and they had to extend those.
So none of that's going to be allowed any longer
and under the new rule, this is the DOT was
doing this Barb transportation and Pete buddhaged saying, look, the
airlines had to do it. We've seen so far is
as we have been tougher with airlines, airlines have leaned
(05:09):
into responding to that, sometimes even claim some credit for
the benefits that we're making them provide consumers, which you know,
as long as the consumers get that benefit, they can
say whatever they'd like.
Speaker 6 (05:20):
Yeah, he goes.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
Look they're advertising on this some of the airlines now
and on some of the other things that they're mandating
that they can advertise all they want as long as
they do it. And it goes beyond that too, though.
If you paid upgrade and don't get it, if you
pay to check your bags and they don't arrive in
a timely manner, if you pay for Wi Fi on
board and it doesn't work. We've all had that at
some point where it's just so slow it's not usable.
(05:42):
They now buy the rules of the DOT, they've got
to refund you the full amount of it, and then
you don't pay good.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
And they absolutely should. I don't know if you saw
this all. This is sort of a related story. But
Jet Blue, Southwest Airlines, I think Alaska they're all getting
together where you can now use your miles on other airline.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Oh interesting, have you seen that?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
And so you know, so that's going to help out.
And I think it's the airlines trying to help other
airlines to burn off miles because everybody had a billion
miles from the pandemic and we couldn't use them, and
now everyone's using them. And these planes, you know these
nobody's paying anything on these flights, you know.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
Nility to them. Yeah, I mean it sits in their books.
Is that is money that they know that they may
have to pay at some point to put you on
their plane or if you're going to buy something with
them or whatever you're gonna do that they got to
deal with those.
Speaker 6 (06:31):
They want them off their books.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
So all right, I found them. Mark Thompson voiceover. All, Right,
here we go, Mark Thompson's World series voice over. He's

By the way, Tim corrects, and the Yankees are favored tonight.

Last night, I got nervous. I didn't want to watch
the game on TV because I wanted to be around Homers,
you know. I wanted to be on the I'm gonna
(13:35):
listen to the radio of La Dodgers because those guys,
even though they pretend they're not Dodger fans, I know
they both are and I'd like, I want to hear
the Dodger game from the Dodger announcers. And nothing against Fox. No,
I watched it on TV, but I like listening to
Rick Monday. Okay. So I got in the car and
I was going to go to Low's, but I figured
(13:57):
I'm going to get to the Empire Lows in five minutes.
So I'm gonna here five minutes of the show and
then I'm gonna listen to the rest of the car.
So I said, screw it, I'm gonna go to the
Low's in Valencia. And I drove for thirty minutes to Valencia.
This is great, listen just to listen to the radio.
I love it. And so I'm driving out to Valencia.
I get into Low's. Right around there, there was a
(14:19):
really terrible ending the bottom of the seventh The Yankees
almost blew it up and scored and got all crazy.
Every picture that came in went to a full count.
So I get to Low's. I go into Low's. I'm
in there for about ten minutes. I do my you know,
looking around for deals and you know, I go to
the halloween section to see if there's any you know,
signature pieces I could buy there for next Halloween. And
(14:40):
then I go by the gardening section and somebody had
left a hose on or a hose broke out there,
and there was waters squirting everywhere. So I go out
there to see what was going on. And I go
out and it wasn't a hose. It was pouring rain
in Valencia, pouring, and then that whole front, that whole storm,
(15:01):
that host cell, that whole cell went straight east and
attacked Crozier in class. Sure of course, yeah, you got
it bad out there. Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 8 (15:10):
We had the window and door open and it just
all of a sudden, you hear just this rumble come
in really fast, and Jane gets up, she goes, is
that rain to go? No, not that fast, and it
within five seconds, all of a sudden, it was pouring.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
It was unbelievable. I mean it looked I could hear
it on the Low's roof and it sounded like a
freight train.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
And it's like we were driving back from Las Vegas
and it started raining a little bit, and Courtney said, oh,
it's is it raining? And I said, honey, it's a
little sprinkle. It's nothing. I mean, look at the pavement.
It's not even wet, right. And then as you guys
just said, the sky just opened.
Speaker 3 (15:46):
It.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
It was it was like biblical rain. I mean, it
was like I was expecting.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
And I even said to her, I guess it was
wrong about the sprinkles thing.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
It was great. It was incredible. So I left Low's.
I'm still listening to the to the broadcast, and I
go to In and Out up in Valencia. Uh and
or Santa Clarita. I can't figure out what's what is
Santa Clarita in Valencia? Is Valencia and Santa Clariico, I
don't know. So I go to the in and out
up there because I know that that's a good in
and out. In and out different in and outs are
(16:14):
They don't differ by a lot, but they do. There
are different levels of in and out, and the one
out in Valencia near another Lows is one of the
best in and outs ever. I don't know if it's
the people working there. I don't know if they get
fresher buttons. I don't know if they get fresher meat
or whatever it is, but that in and out out
there is spectacular. Went there cheeseburger in the car, still
(16:37):
listening to Rick Monday. I go into a second Low's
because I'm in the Loew's parking lot again. I go
into my second Lows of the night. Come out. It's
the ninth inning. I'm driving around and I and I
and I and I see and I hear that it's
the bottom of the ninth with two outs left, and
(16:57):
then I see that there's a an Applebee's, and I
slide into the Apple beas you can see the last
so I can see the last out, and there's probably
about twenty people in the bar there. Everyone went crazy
and it was kind of cool to be. You know,
there was rain still on the ground. You could smell it.
It was fresh rain. I'm going into an Applebee's, and
I felt like I was in the Midwest, or in
(17:19):
Oregon or in Washington. I didn't feel like I was
in Los Angeles. And I loved it.
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Sure, I put all those variables together. Yeah, it really
feels good. It was great, that's really.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
And I drove home and I was tired driving home,
and I was falling asleep. And the only way I
can stay awake when I'm driving and i'm tired is
go really fast. I know it's not recommended, and I
know I feel like an a hole saying that, but
the faster I go, the more I stay awake. And
because I have to, you know, because you don't want
to kill yourself or anybody else, is right. And I
(17:51):
got home and I can't believe the Dodgers are up
three games to zero on the dreaded Pinstripers. The New
York Yankees, they're down three nothing.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
It is wild because there's sort of this uh, I
mean you said it. Maybe the American League isn't as
strong as we think they are.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Maybe not. But what the year I was born, nineteen
sixty three, the Yankees got swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers,
and that that was I don't know, October second through
the seventh or so, and and and it was. It
was the year I was born, the Yankees got swept
by the Dodgers. And then a short you know, twenty
(18:28):
five years later, you could do the math, they might
sweep the Yankees again. How about that?
Speaker 4 (18:34):
You uh, you really point out kind of the literary
nature of this whole. How about that there's almost a
poetic justice to that.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
That's right. Yeah. And Fernando Valenzuela passed away at age
sixty three. I was born in sixty three. Oh Wow,
this is getting eerie. The gate, the first score, the
first game sixty three. Oh my god, this is this
is freaking me out right now. It's why wild. And
then Kirk Gibson's home run hit around the exact same
(19:05):
time as Freddy Freeman's home run eight thirty seven PM. Yeah,
that was pretty wild too. Turns out it's wrong it's
eight thirty seven, eight thirty nine, but it's close. Well,
that's still close. I get it. A lot of people
sent misinformation around saying his exact same time. It wasn't
it was off by a couple minutes or mid half.
Who cares. All Right, we're live, we're gonna be talking
about the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (19:25):
Who were the presidents that died of the same didn't
John Adams and Jefferson died at the same time?
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Is that it? Ah? Remember the Yeah?
Speaker 6 (19:31):
It was odd?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:33):
No, I'm questioning that about that, Like the Freddy Freeman thing.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
That game starts in thirty eight minutes, Yeah, thirty eight minutes.
That game starts, and the Dodgers could be World Series
champs by the first hour of Mo Kelly Show tonight.
That's crazy. He's gonna be on the air if they
win tonight or tomorrow, he's gonna be on the air.
And if they went on Friday, he's going to be
on the air when they win. He has the only
(19:57):
chance he doesn't have a shot is if they go
to Games seven and he won't be on the air
for Game SEPs. Yeah on Saturday, Man, what an afternoon
Dodgers going for a World Series.
Speaker 7 (20:11):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
We could watch the Dodgers win the World Series starting
in thirty minutes. The game starts in three zero, thirty
minutes from now. I was talking to my contact in
New York. Tim. You know I have contacts in all
the major cities. Sure.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
Apparently the mood there Yankee Stadium it's quiet, Yeah, very quiet.
It's not the kind of exuberance that was displayed in
the last game at Yankee Stadium before they started.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
Quiet it is. And when the Dodgers scored two runs
the first inning, that didn't help. Yeah. Yeah, Well look
it's too bad. You know, Yankees got cold, Dodgers got hot. Yeah,
and the Yankees and they can't figure this out. They
can't figure this out at all. Here's our World Series
(21:06):
nineteen fifty five, Dodgers and Yankees, the fifty second edition.
It's Yanks versus Dodgers.
Speaker 9 (21:16):
They had fields and McCoy's a postseason baseball feudon once
again in the fifty second World Series. Sixty four thousand
are at the Yankee Stadium where Casey Stingle and Walt
Alston go with their aces and the opener of the
nineteen fifty five classic. The opposing pitchers are Whitey Ford
for New York and big Don Newcomb for Brooklyn.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
This is the sixth.
Speaker 9 (21:35):
Series between the two clubs, and Mayo Wagner does the
honors as the fans wait to.
Speaker 4 (21:39):
See you actually, and they had to play that music
continued for nine innings.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
They had to play through the music. It seems like
that music was in on everything. Yeah, yeah, that was classic,
all right? Law enforcement braces for a rowdy, rowdy parts crowd.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
The nineteen fifty five series may be marrored by the
nineteen that's right.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
But they they might get a rowdy crowd. I don't know.
Will it be rowdier if the Dodgers win here or
if the Dodgers win in New York. I think it's
rowdier if they win here, I agree, because everybody's out,
everybody's drinking, everyone's at the stadium. Yeah, and then they
get crazy. But I don't know, Man, it could pop
up anywhere. Sure, well, the people who are looking to
(22:24):
create Mayhem are looking to create anywhere.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Sure.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Yeah, they're enjoining the Dodgers law enforcements ready though for
you kids, with.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
The potential for a four game sweep tonight, that is
only expected to add to the excitement among Dodger fans.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
And when it comes to.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Celebrations, there's a warning from local law enforcement, the Sheriff's Department,
trying to avoid scenes like this one. This was in
East LA last night. Unruly fans took over the intersection
of Atlantic and Olympic cars doing stunts with fans dancing
on the sidewalks and then the crosswalks. There many waving
Dodger flags celebrating last night's Game three win. CHP officers
and Sheriff's deputies eventually blocked several intersections in the area
(23:02):
to prevent.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
That celebration from spreading.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
The Sheriff's Response Team or SRT, which responds to crowd
control and mass arrest. Now they've been standing by each
night the World Series games are played, and that was
the case last night as they quickly moved in.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
But you know, there was nobody arrested. The cops are
letting these kids burn off steam, you know, as long
as they're not you know, breaking into stores or burning
places down. Who cares so what they're doing.
Speaker 4 (23:26):
Donuts, Yeah, Okay, all right, you let them enjoy themselves.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I mean neighbors, if there are any neighbors in the area.
I think if they always worry about that. You know,
it's like, why can't the kids behave though, Tim, because
they've had to blow off steam by taking the car
out and doing donuts. They haven't done it since nineteen
eighty eight.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
Well, you know, Tim, long time. There are a lot
of ways to blow off steam. Yeah, this is one
of them. Why don't they build a church or something.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
And disperse the crowd there now? The Sheriff's Department is
warning fans to celebrate responsibly as the Boys in Blue
continue competing for a.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
World series title.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
We just to enjoy things like this, but with that
comes summer responsibilities. Both our communities and our Sheriff's Department
and local police departments.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
To celebrate responsibility.
Speaker 1 (24:13):
And among the illegal behaviors, the department is condemning vandalism,
unlawful assembly like the one last night, Oh all right, vandalism,
unlawful assembly like the one last night, and public intoxication.
There were no reports of any injuries or arrests at
the popular East La intersection, but as not always the case.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
They go. Walker Buler was great last night pitching and winning.
That guy's the best man, Walker Bueller. And now the
Dodgers start in eighteen twenty about twenty six minutes, twenty
six minutes after the hour, and the Dodgers are going
to be World Series champs if they win tonight, blush
(24:53):
plus big celebration going on in La Plush. But that
would be great if the Dodgers win. I don't care
when they win, as well as they win. If it
goes to games for five, I mean five, six or seven,
I don't care. It'd be fun to have him win
back here, right, it would be great to see it
go to Game seven and the Dodgers win on a
Saturday night in La.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
Well, as long as you knew they were gonna win.
I mean, you know the guy that he's starting to
get nervous if it goes to Game seven. But for
to go to Game seven, they have to lose three
games in a row, right, sure, Yeah, I mean that
means that's a bad sign.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
The Yankees have to sweep all four games against the Dodgers. Yeah,
it's very difficult to do. Sure, it's very difficult. It's
never been done before. How about that. Yeah, it's never
been done before. The team that loses the first three
has never won. It's never even going to Game six.
That's just it's it's unbelievable. So so will it be
(25:47):
over tonight? Tim? I hope? So. I hope the Dodgers
win in tonight. I hope so.
Speaker 8 (25:53):
Kind of you kind of want them to win Game
six because that's November first, and that's Fernando of Alenzuela's birthday.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Oh, would be kind of cool. That's fine, you know what.
I think Fernando would understand. They wanted to know. So
I'm gonna go. I'm going for tonight. Yeah, dig dong
with this guy.
Speaker 7 (26:10):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from kf
I AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
There's a code, dude, Yeah, there is the code of silence,
right you know when when uh, and this has nothing
to do with Mark Thompson by when your bookie calls you,
or a guy calls you who is a friend of
yours and you gamble together and you're betting on a horse,
you're going in on a horse. Whatever, his duty is
(26:36):
to say, hey, are you alone? Or your duty is
to say, oh, I'm just sitting here with my wife.
What's going on? And then the conversations about the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
Sure, then he says, hey, right, yeah, I want to
see if you and your wife wanted to go to
the Dodgers game with me.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Yeah. Great that she's there. Yeah, but man, I that's
some tickets. How much are they?
Speaker 4 (26:58):
Well let me go, let me call you later and
all that, you know, but I just want to make
sure you guys are interesting. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's how
that should go down.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Well, you know, Brian Reagan had the the funniest comment.
He called his dad and I can't remember how exactly
it went, but he said, hey, Dad, crazy news. I
took pepto bismo, peptal bismo and my my my waist
(27:24):
is really really black. And his dad goes, hey, Brian,
crazy news. I'm here with the entire board of trustees
and you're on speaker phone. He does it better than next.
He's a stand up comeds. But that's about it, ladies
and gentlemen. The greatest second basement in the history of
(27:45):
the Dodgers. Steve Sacks, Are.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
You sure you got the right guy?
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Oh? Man, what I've been listening to you and Kate's
in the Morning. That's a great show. I think that
should be the permanent show in the morning. Thank you.
Speaker 10 (28:00):
We have such a good time. And Kim is so
good on the air. I listened to him when he's
just amazing. Yeah, so it's a great it's a great,
great time, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Steve Sachs, I you are a long history with the Dodgers.
You know you obviously you knew Fernando Valen's way. You
had to be not only saddened, but shocked. I was
shocked that he passed away. I thought, I thought, you know,
he was sick, but he always made a comeback. This guy.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Yeah, Fernando, I'll tell you guys, he was such a
wonderful person. He was a fierce competitor. One of the
best pictures I ever saw.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
For sure.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
He changed the the fan base here at Dodger Stadium
and just shot.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
It into orbit.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
And he really galvanized the whole community. You have Mexican
American Committee, most most notably and just I mean put
this this organization into a place that they never dreamed
of unless it was Fernando that came along and did it.
It opened everybody's eyes. But Fernando was just absolutely amazing.
I saw him probably two months ago, and I knew
(29:06):
that he was probably in dire straits. He just didn't
look good, you know, like he usually did, and but
he always had a smile.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
On his face.
Speaker 3 (29:15):
And one guy never complained to his him.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
Yeah, you know, I was. You must have. You must
be thrilled to have been You were with eighty one
and eighty eight with the Dodgers, isn't that right, correct? Yeah? Yeah,
but man to have two World Series in a decade
and then I guess a brain fart afterwards where he
went and played for the Yankees. That.
Speaker 3 (29:36):
Yeah, well, I didn't want to leave, but you know,
we couldn't come to an agreement, so you got to go.
You know, you gotta do.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
What you gotta do. I get it, and I even
I supported you when you ran for Congress. I thought
you were going to win. And then I don't know
what happened.
Speaker 3 (29:51):
No, I actually I actually did not run for Congress.
I was, yeah, I thought about it. I formed an
explore Tory committee, but I'd never ran that was anything
for the state Assembly. It wasn't for Congress, but decided
not to do it.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Yeah, and I remember the reason why you decide not
to do it, and I think it's one of the
greatest reasons ever. You said in your official document that
was released you wanted to spend more time with your family.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
That's true, and that's that's one reason why I retired.
Is you know, I knew that my life was going
to be much different. I was, unfortunately going through a divorce,
and my skills were waning as a player. I didn't
want to play at a B level. I think I
could have played in another four or five years, but
I didn't want to play at a level where I
wasn't the best version of myself. And besides, my personal
(30:40):
life was unraveling with my divorce, and I just didn't
want to play anymore. And so I thought the most
important thing to do anyway was to be a dad.
And I'm glad I did it.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
I'm so glad I did it. Steve sass with us
with the Los a former player with the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Let me ask you a question. When Major League Baseball
players retiring, and I know you know a lot of them,
how many years after they retired do they think they
can still play the game? Is there a number there,
is it, four or five?
Speaker 8 (31:04):
Ten?
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Yeah, well, you know what, it is true, and after
they get a little bit of a different perspective when
they retire, they get some time off and really rest.
Speaker 10 (31:14):
Some of them probably can.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
I don't know if they can play at the same level.
I know Ryan Sandberg came back and played the guy
I played against for many years with the Cubs. He
retired and came back later and was actually a very
still productive player. So I think there's times some examples
of people that can come back later. But I think
it's a pretty tough thing to do. That's a tough
game to play.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
In eighty one through I think you were you were
at the team eighty three, eighty nine, I believe, or
eighty eight, eighty three, eighty one, eighty eight. I was
eighty one.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
When you mean the Dodgers, I finned seventy eight out
high school, got to the Big Leaks in eighty one,
and then less after eighty eight after the World Series.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
But let me be honest with us, Okay, when you know,
between eighty eighty one and eighty eight, when a grounder
was hitting to Bill Russell, were you just hoping to
God that that ball would get the first base.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
Well, I hope that about myself sometimes in eighty three,
that's for sure. And that was that was just the
damned thing. You know. I went through part a part
of my season in eighty eighty three where I just
I had lost my confidence and it was it was
one of the biggest tests of my life to you know,
(32:25):
to get my confidence back. And when I did that,
that that throwing problem just disappeared. So it was just
about a confidence thing. And but I went through it
for about two months and people still remember it.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
I know, back in nineteen of the late seventies and
early eighties, this probably doesn't happen anymore. But is there
are there any Major League players between innings that go
into the dugout and smoke cigarettes?
Speaker 3 (32:49):
No, there's not that I know of, But you know,
I know when I first got called up, there were
guys on our bench that.
Speaker 10 (32:55):
Were smoking smoking in the dugout.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
Nowadays we hear about, you know, the chewing, and I
think that's that's even probably subsided some but smoking in
that does out as they didn't hide it.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
It was incredible. It's incredible. That is so great, man,
That is right. Where do you live now. Are you
still in California?
Speaker 3 (33:19):
Yeah, I live in Roseville, California, just outside of Sacramento.
I've been here for in the same house for twenty
seven years, and my brother lives across the street.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
Oh that's great.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
It's a pretty good thing. Yeah, yeah, I really like
it here.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
And you had young kids when when you're retired, isn't
that true?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (33:36):
I did.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
I had my two children, Lauren who is thirty seven now,
thirty six, thirty seven. She lives very close to me.
And of course I don't know if you knew about
my son, John, but my son is in heaven. I
lost my son a couple of almost three years, two
and a half years ago. He was a pilot in
the Marine Corps. He was a captain and they had
(33:58):
double engine failure Gonne and four of his service members
lost their lives in the crash. So that that has
been obviously a life changer for me and our families,
and you know, unfortunately, the you know, the world's never
going to be the same. My son was just a
wonderful person, just a perfect dad, great father.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
But it does make total sense that your son, you know,
I saw the way you played with the Dodgers. And
I saw all the charity work you did when you
were with the Dodgers. It makes perfect sense that they
one of your kids, if not both, would have gone
into serving this country as well.
Speaker 3 (34:35):
Yeah, my son loves his country beyond measure.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
And yeah, he.
Speaker 3 (34:40):
He lived for making other people safe. That was his
mission and he was the best.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
Yes, if if the Dodgers do win the World Series,
and I think they will, you know they got four
shots of it. Here, are you going to come down
for the parade?
Speaker 3 (34:54):
I most certainly am coming down for the parade. Yes,
And uh yeah I and yeah, I'm gonna be down
for the parade and I'm going to enjoy it. And
I'm just so happy for these guys. They and I'll
tell you what. I look at these two teams, and
you know I played for both teams, so I'm not
supposed to have a dog in the fight. But I
can tell you the Dodgers are just, in my estimation,
(35:16):
this is my opinion, the Dodgers are just a lot
better than any team in baseball, including the Yankees. So
the Yankees were a marvelous, marvelous team, a tremendous baseball team.
But the Dodgers have got talent like I've never seen.
I've never seen a team this good, I think in
all my years in baseball.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
It's unbelievable.
Speaker 6 (35:35):
Steve.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I really appreciate you coming down, coming on with us,
hopefully see at the parade. And I can't tell you
how many years of pleasure you gave me when I
was just out of high school, you know, watching the
Dodgers eighty one to eighty eight, watching both those World series,
such great memories, and I got to thank you and
that entire team. It was really one of the coolest
times in my life. Thank you so much, guys.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
I appreciate you having me on time.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
All right, Steve Sacks everybody, how grat is Sax. Wow,
he's the best coming down to that parade if they win.
So let's go Dodgers and bring Steve down. And I said, mom,
one of those double decker buses. We are live on
