Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our dumb bert to talking bass
ball here an hour number two and a no hitter
over the weekend. But what are your thoughts on the
Giants pitcher Blake Snell doing a victory lap after that
no hitter because he pitched into the ninth inning for
(00:21):
the first time and over two hundred career starts. Also,
Yankee star One Soto says it sucks the Blue Jays
kept walking Aaron Judge over the weekend, while Toronto's pitching
coach says this will become the new normal where you're
at on that one for the Bronx Bombers. Also, the
White Sox have now lost twenty straight games. Give me
(00:43):
your reaction is they are in the rarefied air as
one of the worst teams of all time in baseball history.
It's all coming your way right now. It's our number two.
Headline reads a no no for the do no well,
come in up, beginning of another hour of the Ben
Maler Show.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
We are in the air everywhares we burst into speech
and say, don't ask me, I just work here.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I don't have the answers. Coast, the coast, port on

I know our buddy, Ferg Dog was upset and nobody
recognized him at the mall of meeting greet tiract dot com.
The way tire buying show be Ferg was devastating. Don't
(01:58):
you know who I am? I'm Ferg Dog and you
don't even recognize me. Shame on you. But a lead
this hour is from baseball. It happened over the weekend
while we were chilling, roasting, or took us off in
Sin City, in the Queen City with the skyline Chili
Fresh the baseball. The Giants were playing the Reds and
(02:21):
we got a no hitter on Friday night. No no
for the Doe do. It's our moral enemy, enemy of
the Mala militia. Blake Snell tossed a no hitter. Now
that is not necessarily the story. The story is not
Blake Snell tossing a no hitter. I'll explain what the
(02:41):
story is. It's what he said after the game. That
is the story. What he said after the So if
you didn't hear, maybe not. Following the no hit effort,
Blake Snell was asked how he was feeling a report,
of course, always a great question considering the fact that
he'd never pitched into the ninth inning of any game
(03:02):
his big league career. This is the first time he
pitched the ninth inning, and he took that question as
an opportunity to go on a rampage against me. Take
a listen.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
But they can't say it anymore, you know, complete game?
Shut out, no hitter, leave me alone. It isn't going nine,
don't go eight? You get that feels just did it?
Leave me alone?
Speaker 4 (03:24):
One?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Leave me alone? Just let the man play Twitch. Let
the man go on Twitch and play video games. Leave
the man alone playing again. I would hear him playing
the gain. I would hear it again. Play again.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
They can't say it anymore? Yeah, shut out, leave me alone,
It isn't going nine, don't go eight? You get that
feels just did it leave me alone?
Speaker 4 (03:45):
One?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yeah? All right. Playing on our team is not going
to make the playoffs. Nobody in baseball wanted you. You're
a loser, nobody wanted you. Let us discuss the question,
what are your thoughts on the Giants pitcher Blake Snell
and his leave me alone, Leave me alone doing a
victory lap following his no hit pitching performance over the weekend,
(04:07):
going to the ninth INNY. So, I've got Golds, Jim Aerosmith,
and Batman, and we will combine all of these things
together and make likability, which is something Blake Snell does
not have. Easy to hate now number who. I found
this whole thing amusing because Blake Snell says, you know what,
(04:31):
just in case people start to like me because I
pitched a no hitter, I want to make sure everyone
hates my guts. And then he started talking. He realized, boy,
this guy's a douche Canoe. My goodness, the poster boy
for athletes that are easy to pull against Blake Snell.
And again I go back to my point, the trade deadline,
(04:51):
all those big trophies that he's got from Cyon Wars,
and nobody was willing to meet the asking price. Blake
Snell nobody wanted him in baseball. The entire industry said,
we don't want you. And oh, by the way, in
the off season, nobody wanted Blake Snell either, and he
went to the Giants because nobody else would even give
(05:13):
him that crappy offer he signed with the Giants for.
So what does that say about Blake Snell? It tells
you the people of baseball know what a bad apple
this guy is. And he's great for five and a
third innings, but they don't want to deal with the
bull crap from Blake Snell. But this, I mean, the
gold standard, and we might have to add that. Now
(05:35):
leave me alone as a drop to the show. But
a while back, when the pandemic was going on, and
he said, I'm not playing unless I get mine and bra,
I'm risking my life, Broy, because you know a lot
of people died playing baseball during the pandemic. I mean,
how many body bags were there? I remember that one
Brewers game there was like seventeen players died in a
(05:58):
Brewers game on the It was wild. Yeah, they were
risking their life. It was crazy unless they weren't. Unless
that's bull crap, absolute bull crap, right, So we're supposed
to pretend you and I are supposed to pretend that
like that one game on Friday erases the entire body
(06:18):
of work, that that just works as deodorant. And for Snell,
it's like it's like going to gold gym. It's a
gold Gym special. That's your flex, Like, that's that's your
getting off point, that's your brag. That's an odd flex
to me. For Blake Snell, I mean you just well
you can rub some some soap onto some Irish spraying
(06:41):
or whatever and the smell goes away. So I did
some malor math here. Blake Snell has pitched in the
ninth inning in zero point four percent of his Big
League starts? Is that impressive? Is anyone impressed by that?
Anybody at all? Leave me alone? Leave me alone? Oh,
he said, all right, So two hundred and two starts
(07:02):
he's pitched into the ninth inning or beyond one time,
Numero uno one time for Blake Snell. Go take a bow,
do a victory lap? How about that? Yes? No, you dope.
What a dandelion? The man's a dandelion, Blake Snell. He
hit very delicate. Now I'll forever be grateful for Blake Snell,
because I remember the hardest World Series of all time,
(07:26):
twenty twenty, Game six, Tampa Bay and Los Angeles. Blake
Snell on the mound, dealing, but you knew it wouldn't
last because he's Blake Snell, and the guy's a coward.
And sure enough, hey, ah, I gotta come out of
the game. Ah by he got pulled Blake Snell in
the sixth inning of that game. He had thrown seventy
(07:46):
three pitches and they took him out of the game
because he couldn't handle it anymore because he's soft. And
then the Tampa Bay bullpen melted down because he could
not complete another eating or two wittings, which he easily
could have done with that pitch out. And so that's
where we are today. A guy couldn't handle the pressure.
And now we're supposed to believe because he went had
one game where he went all the way he's an
(08:08):
iron man. Now, yeah, okay, sure, please Blake Snell when
he's pitching. You know when Blake Snell's on the mound
that you're in good shape because the bullpen will be
called in. There'll be a conga line of relievers and
he's playing on a team. It's not gonna make the
playoffs this year. That's not happening. And so you look
(08:28):
at Blake Snell, You're like, well, nobody wanted him last year.
So he's just accumulating stats right now, hoping to hornswaggle
some random NFL, NBA team rather baseball. We'll get to
it eventually, some random baseball team to pay him gobs
and gobs of money. All right now, page two, Here
we go to the Bronx. We talked about this a
(08:49):
little bit earlier in the show with the who Am
I game? But Yankee Starjon Soto saying that it sucks
that the Blue Jays kept walking Aaron Judge over the
weekend on Saturday. It was three intentional walks. The Toronto
pitching coach, though, came out and said that this is
going to be the new normal that the Blue Jays
(09:10):
believe that they are on the cusp, but the ones
that started this year, So where are you at on that?
The Blue Jay coach saying that this is going to
become the normal standard chow around baseball that Aaron Judge
gets pitched around. And Juan Soto, he was a oh
man that sucks. So my first thought on this, in
(09:33):
terms of where I'm at is this, it's a referendum
on the Yankee line. I remember there was a guy
in the Mets who used to play for the Yankees
who came out a couple of weeks ago and was like, oh, yeah,
there's a two man team over there, got Soto and Judge.
And there was a big controversy, Oh could you trash
the Yankees like that? The Yankees were all upset, they
(09:55):
were angry, and so now you look at it, it's
been another month, and the guy was, that's absolutely right.
The Yankees are a two man variety show. That's what
the New York Yankees are this year. And that's why
Toronto can get away with pitching around Aaron Judge early
and often. You got Aaron Judge on one side, you
got one Soda on the other, and the rest of
(10:15):
the lineup is bupkus. That's what you have. So as
long as you don't let Aaron Judge beat you and
hit a ball to the moon, then you can continue
walking him. It's a cowardly strategy, but in terms of
wins and losses, wins and losses, it is effective. Let
somebody else beat you. As you look at that Yankee lineup,
(10:38):
who's exactly going to be that person? Because I don't
see that person. Do you see that person? I don't
see that. I don't see that. So for Aaron Judge,
he's got to be at this point now a big
Aerosmith fan because this is going to be his song.
Walk this way for the rest of the season. Because
you got John Carlos Stanton, who's a lightweight, even though
he when he makes contact one every week the ball
(11:01):
goes into orbit, it's on the launching pad. But that
didn't happen all that often. And then you look at
the rest of that Yankee lineup, there's nothing there. Austin Wells,
please all right? Now, final point, we go to Chicago,
where we are on the cusp of greatness. Well opposite
of greatness, I guess you could say. But I love
(11:22):
losing and I've always been a fan of losers. And
congratulations to the White Sox as they have outdone themselves
after the festivities of the weekend. With help from the
Minnesota baseball team, the Chicago White Sox have now lost
twenty games in a row. Congratulations White Sox. The pale
hoose at it again. So what is your reaction, Give
(11:43):
me your reaction to the White Sox. Now the losing
streak up to twenty in a row. So it's a
new level of stink for the White Sox. Every loss
they are adding on to the record. And they are
so close, so close to the record. Now, the modern
record for our purposes, the Baltimore Orioles of the late eighties,
(12:05):
and they started the season on a ridiculous reverse burner there.
But now you look at the White Sox here twenty
straight losses, and it just hits differently. It just hits differently,
and it's an all encompassing type of suck, as they
like to say in baseball. But the White Sox at
(12:25):
this point, their manager is now one hundred games under
five hundred since he took over there in Chicago, and
Jerry Reinsdorf and the White Sox that they're like, wow,
we suck. We Why would we fire the manager? Because
we still suck. It's not the manager, the players that stink.
The players would like you to believe it's the manager
that stinks. The manager would like you to believe it's
the players that stink, And It's likely a little bit
(12:46):
of both. But the White Sox are being run like
a batman villain is running the team right the joker, zero, zip,
zilch and nada. That's what the White Sox have in
the win come. They're owen sixteen the All Star Break.
They can't hit, they can't field, they don't pitch very well.
Other than that, they got a heck of a team
and this Chicago American League Baseball team. Now they get
(13:09):
what should be the magic elixir, a date in the
Bay Area with the Oakland Athletics. The final time in Oakland,
White Sox and As will play. White Sox are vacating
to go to Sacramento next year. So if the streak
does not end, and I hope it doesn't, I want
(13:30):
to see the As sweep the White Size. But if
it does not end, if I'm you know that goes
that direction, then no watch out because they got the
Cubs upcoming. That's a that's a winnablel the Cub's not
very good. You can win that, but then you start
stacking up better teams after that could luck to the
White Sox might might not just lose every game the
rest of the year. And the thing is I believe
(13:52):
they're actually trying. It's one thing if they're not trying,
but I think they're actually trying, and they suck like this,
which is even better. It just as a better story
that they're actually putting effort into this and they're not tanking.
They just are so bad at their jobs. It's awesome.

Maller, Oh Baseball Heavy Mallard Monlogue. Begin Hour two, No
hitter over the weekend. Mister Luciana writes that he says
three point three out of ten on the Mallon monologue,
Blake has been pitching lights out the last couple of games.
The Giants will make the Wildcard. Other than that, not
gonna make the Wildcard, not gonna happen. And nobody wanted him. Nobody.
(15:52):
The Giants would love to have traded Blakes now they
tried to trade him. Nobody wanted the guy. It's an
indictment of Blake Snell. Ouf the Alien Opine says, much
like the White Sox, my Malard meet and greet streak
is alive and well, oops, all losses. We got to
get out to a mall of meet and Greek got
to get him out to a mall of meet and
Greek for sure. Ferk Dug says, do you think Blake
(16:13):
Snell's best friend? And if the rumors are true, David
Vessey is still celebrating the no hitter. Yeah, yeah, he
had a big, big celebratory weekend. At a big celebratory weekend,
they were going gaga. Yeah, Fat Daddy says, Big Ben.
I'm going to give you a sixty six and two
thirds percentage on the second Malon monologue out of the
(16:36):
three stories, I'm going to take away one third of that.
Does anybody care about Blake Snell? Because I don't. No, Well,
it's amusing. He's so obtuse. It's fascinating to be surrounded
by people like that in life. Outstanding, just absolutely gread.
The guy throws one game in not even it can
(16:57):
I'm talking about all the time people say, well, nobody
throws complete. He didn't get the ninth INNY usually didn't
get past the fifth INNY or the six. Let's go
to the phones. We'll say hello to Mark the full
name guy. Hello, Mark, the full name guy. What are
you complaining about today?
Speaker 4 (17:10):
Mark?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
What are you upset about?
Speaker 4 (17:12):
Oh? Well, mister nattering nabob of negaturty, there's no one
that complains like you do.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
No, no, you complain. You don't even realize it.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
You are.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
You complain NonStop, and you call me a complainer when
mirror mirror on the wall. Who's the most complaining of
them all?
Speaker 4 (17:28):
You Ben Mahler, stop it? You know I lamit that
I'm tired after ten or twelve days of hard work.
You don't even know what hard work is?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Wrong again, idiot? Yes, you just yourself, yourself, incriminating yourself.
You're you're a moron. Absolutely mating is hard work.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
And then you get on the air and complain about
people like Oh, Blake Snell, who stopped your Dodgers calls
Brover five and in the.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
World Series was on the mound. The Dodgers won the
World Series the game he started. They won the World Series,
the Championship. Much of your sugar in their hardest championship
of all time marked the full name guy in a
global pandemic.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
You know what, Ben Maller, You made up a story
about a threat that I've never made.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
You keep bringing it up. You bring it up. I
didn't bring it up. You brought it up. You said
justifiable homicide. I didn't say. You said it. And every
time you call now you bring it up. But you're
the guy that said it. I didn't say. You're the
one that said it.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Okay, let me finish my point.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
You keep bringing up. You won't let it go. Let
it go.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
The point to make mister Fauci put the fear of
God into too many people. Okay, so the game?
Speaker 1 (18:53):
How how does Fauci's name come up? This is between
me and you. This was before that.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
You want to talk about the vaccine?
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Sure, what do you mention the vaccine? I didn't talk
about the vague. What are you talking about? You're you're
going off there?
Speaker 2 (19:07):
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (19:10):
All right? I thank you? Who's that? He's gotta be
if with me? But then anybody's like Faucy in the vaccine,
which I did. Those two things. This happened before all
that COVID stuff happened. I was hello to Andre and
his fake dog willis Hello, Andre, how are you Ben?
Speaker 4 (19:30):
A good evening?
Speaker 8 (19:31):
Good good to be on with you listen to First
of all, you know, you started the show talking about
Alex Smith, you know, and the catastrophic injury that that
that that he endured, you know what I mean. And
from the standpoint, I just want to touch on that,
you know, because uh, you know, it's not the critic, right,
That's what I think about. It Not the critic who counts.
It's the person that's in the arena and that uh,
(19:52):
just devastating injury and quarterback escapes to my mind, Uh
played for the Redskins in the Lawrence Taylor a similar.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Interest Joe Joe Fisman. But here's the thing. You talking
about the critic and all that, But he sent out
a photo Andre of his mangled, mutilated leg. Now shouldn't
that Do we need to see that? Is that something
we need to see?
Speaker 4 (20:18):
You know, we don't need to see that.
Speaker 8 (20:19):
No, we don't need to see that, Ben. And that's
the point about TMI, you know what I mean, and
kind of knowing when enough is enough, you know. So
again Alex, Look, we're all not fans of grains anatomy. Okay,
all of us don't aspire to have careers in the
medical field.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
It's over it's oversharing, is what it is. You don't overshare,
you know, we don't need.
Speaker 8 (20:39):
But there's the full respect. But I'm one hundred percent agree.
You know, I saw again this before they did this wildness.
You know, he put the picture up where he had
his foot after the surgery, kind of all of the
in the splint and all the rest of that stuff.
That's fine, okay, but all the sort of details we
don't need now. So some of the details that I
did need been you know, and listen, I'm gonna be
(21:02):
fully transparent. I don't know if I can be above
a private in the mald militia. After I saw how
people came out to Vegas right to support and what
I saw on social media. People were traveling from Ohio,
people traveling from Tennessee, people traveling from Texas, all across
the Golden state of California North. I mean, people came
(21:23):
out and I was just taking it back. You know,
I saw that Eddie had a sign on him in
terms of some purpose purchases that he might have not made,
you know, so there was a little bit of a
discrepancy there. I also saw Ben for such an event,
the pricing was high, but wrecked, you know, high but
(21:43):
reasonable to be in the presence of a one mister Ben.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Mallein well Minor. There was no cover fee, and the
pricing was actually compared to what the prices are in
a lot of places, actually reasonable.
Speaker 9 (21:54):
I got three drinks for twenty one dollars.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Yeah, so I mean these are these are not nineteen
nineties rices. I mean in modern times. I know, as
soon as I crossed back into California, everything got much
more expensive. Gas went up a dollar. I know that.
So that was that was great.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
But yeah, so you know what I mean.
Speaker 8 (22:11):
So Ben, I just I tipped my hat. I show
full respect to the to the sergeants, to the lieutenants,
to the majors. We have some some some generals in
the Malad militia who took the time and showed up.
And I gotta step my game up. I gotta step
my game. I gotta find I gotta find a way.
But I'm not gonna be anything more in the private
and I saw I have a way to go.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Well, make a deal with you if you can get
Willis to bark on command, then you can move up
in the ranks.
Speaker 8 (22:35):
Okay, Uh, it might take some training again, and it's
late at night, but I'm gonna have to I'm gonna
have to get on that.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Because it did.
Speaker 8 (22:40):
There's been there's been too much. But Ben, thanks for
the time for the malle meet and great.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Thanks much respect. All right, thank you and appreciate great
honor we have Andre. We have had these things in
your neck of the woods, but you maybe you weren't
listening at the time, and make the trip and we'll
have to do one again at some point. Rob in
(23:06):
Vegas nailed it. Mentioned last hour there was one guy,
one guy who showed up that I didn't think was
going to show up and I didn't think was going
to actually follow through what he did. Mike in Vegas.
Now this guy, Mike, he's got some issues, my guy, Mike.
I'm worried about it. Worried about Mike and Vegas. A
(23:27):
few things going on with it.
Speaker 9 (23:28):
Didn't he karaoke a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
He did just a couple of times, right like every
other times. Yeah, Yeah, he's he's kind of reminds me
of beer drinking. Brian a little bit same vibe. He's
the guy that called up and said he's been arrested
for going into the Belagio fountains multiple times. He's the
(23:51):
guy that called up and told us the story about
how he was trying to climb a fence. He was
going to the bathroom. He climbed the fence, his pants
got stuck, he was hanging upside down everal hours. Yeah,
all that, and so Mike, uh, this has never happened.
I've done a lot of these events, and I've had
some interesting things happened. David in winter Park, Florida, brought
(24:13):
Roscoe the parrot, which is a stuffed animal that was
right up there. But Mike had a couple of bags
with him middle down his luck and he wanted to
have a drink, and rather than pay the the price
of the Big Ben beer or lorrain Is drink or
Coop's drink or Eddie's drink, he just you know what
I'm gonna say, You get some mouth wash out here
(24:33):
and start guzzling that.
Speaker 7 (24:38):
Wow, I had I had heard rumors about that. I
had did not. I did not know. Yeah it wasn't
I didn't know it was confirmed.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
But oh, no, I have I have a photo. I
posted it. It's on my social media. So he was smiling.
He's in a good mood. He was confused.
Speaker 10 (24:50):
He was a mood.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Yeah, yeah, I'm worried about him.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
I mean, a guy who's who brings his own mouthwash
to drink it is not a good saying. Then he
did give me a sharpie.
Speaker 9 (25:01):
Though, do you want me to do you know what
flavor of listerine he was sipping on? I want to
try it.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I don't even think. I don't even think Lee would
drink my mouthwise.
Speaker 9 (25:13):
I was thinking. I was like, is it is it
like incognito? Is it actually not listerine? Maybe it's a
vodka orange or something?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Oh you think it might have been something else? And
then I don't know. I mean, I'm looking at it
does not look thinking, I think, but it does not
look like you're right, it does the photo. I'm looking
at the photo here, it's on the Instagram page for
the show, and it doesn't look like you're traditional.
Speaker 9 (25:35):
No, it looks like it's mixed with something.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
You can have an open container in Vegas. What's the Yeah,
he just wants to think it is let's see, I'm
trying to enlarge the photo to see what is that?
But yeah, it's not the it's a kind.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Of a.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
It looks like a urine type color, doesn't it. It
does a little bit like that. Yeah, who is that sure?
But he was. He was very happy, very super nice guy,
very nice man, very nice man. He was very hot
from the drinking. So at one point he pulled off.
He took a towel out of his bag and he
put some water on it and then just squeezed it
on top of his head to cool off a little bit.
Speaker 9 (26:12):
Well, there was no air conditioning in there. It got
a little stuffy for a second, a little bit.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
It was not, you know, one too bad, better than
being outside, better than the one hundred and ten degree,
whether that was outside the met and green anyway. It
is the bed Mali show, no merch man. We'll get
to that coming up. Also, we have Mallard of the
third degree in a little bit right now. Though, let's

tied with China for the most, twenty six silver and
twenty six browns as well. Hey, baseball games of note,

nice to meet you over the weekend.

on the table, Is that correct, Nathan?
Speaker 4 (31:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (31:49):
Well I passed him on the Lorena because we have
a little bit in common. But you know, given her,
what do you have in common?
Speaker 1 (31:57):
What do you have in common with Lorena?
Speaker 11 (32:00):
We were both born in the same town.

out of town, and I went about BN.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Your buck nice. And see that's good because you don't
have to pay taxes on that, because if you go
over a certain amount, you got to pay taxes. So

have to pay the taxes and all that. Are you
driving back still? Are you heading back home? Yeah?

Speaker 5 (39:21):
Ben.
Speaker 10 (39:21):
Defensive star Joey Bosa left Chargers practice early with a
hand slash wrist injury.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
Ben, what's your reaction. My reaction is, this is what
he does. This is what Joey Bosa does. He gets hurt.
He's appeared in just fourteen games over the last two seasons.
This is his superpower. And now Jim Harbaugh is getting
the full Charger experience. You got the quarterback hurt, you
got that defensive star hurt. That's Charger football.
Speaker 10 (39:48):
Next, Bears All Pro quarterback Jalen Johnson scoffed at his
lack of inclusion on the NFL's top one hundred list
and said it will motivate him next season.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
Ben, did he get aron deal? No, he plays for
the Bears. The Bears have been an embarrassment. I know
they played a little bit better at the end of
last year, but no, the Bears make the playoffs and
then you get all the glory. Everyone kisses your ass
and they lick your toes and all that. No, we're
not at that point right now, and so good hold
the garage and you can when you do, have a
good year, he said, well, just because the haters.
Speaker 10 (40:18):
Next, Paul Skins is heading towards a career high inning count,
but the pirates say they have a plan to manage
his workload.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
Ben, what do you think about it? No, I hate this.
You know this is a pet peeve lee As a
Dodger apologist, they have been babying pitchers with pitch counts
and they still need Tommy John surgery. Why instead of
lowering the amount of innings in the workload, why don't
you stretch out the innings. Wouldn't that be a better
way to approach things to have him expect to pitch
(40:46):
longer in the game. Anyway, how did we down? It's
a barely a pass. That's hey, sees get degrees and
the worst doctor stills a doctor.
Hello and welcome. It's our dumb bert to talking bass
ball here an hour number two and a no hitter
over the weekend. But what are your thoughts on the
Giants pitcher Blake Snell doing a victory lap after that
no hitter because he pitched into the ninth inning for
(00:21):
the first time and over two hundred career starts. Also,
Yankee star One Soto says it sucks the Blue Jays
kept walking Aaron Judge over the weekend, while Toronto's pitching
coach says this will become the new normal where you're
at on that one for the Bronx Bombers. Also, the
White Sox have now lost twenty straight games. Give me
(00:43):
your reaction is they are in the rarefied air as
one of the worst teams of all time in baseball history.
It's all coming your way right now. It's our number two.
Headline reads a no no for the do no well,
come in up, beginning of another hour of the Ben
Maler Show.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
We are in the air everywhares we burst into speech
and say, don't ask me, I just work here.

I know our buddy, Ferg Dog was upset and nobody
recognized him at the mall of meeting greet tiract dot com.
The way tire buying show be Ferg was devastating. Don't
(01:58):
you know who I am? I'm Ferg Dog and you
don't even recognize me. Shame on you. But a lead
this hour is from baseball. It happened over the weekend
while we were chilling, roasting, or took us off in
Sin City, in the Queen City with the skyline Chili
Fresh the baseball. The Giants were playing the Reds and
(02:21):
we got a no hitter on Friday night. No no
for the Doe do. It's our moral enemy, enemy of
the Mala militia. Blake Snell tossed a no hitter. Now
that is not necessarily the story. The story is not
Blake Snell tossing a no hitter. I'll explain what the
(02:41):
story is. It's what he said after the game. That
is the story. What he said after the So if
you didn't hear, maybe not. Following the no hit effort,
Blake Snell was asked how he was feeling a report,
of course, always a great question considering the fact that
he'd never pitched into the ninth inning of any game
(03:02):
his big league career. This is the first time he
pitched the ninth inning, and he took that question as
an opportunity to go on a rampage against me. Take
a listen.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
But they can't say it anymore, you know, complete game?
Shut out, no hitter, leave me alone. It isn't going nine,
don't go eight? You get that feels just did it?
Leave me alone?
Speaker 4 (03:24):
One?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Leave me alone? Just let the man play Twitch. Let
the man go on Twitch and play video games. Leave
the man alone playing again. I would hear him playing
the gain. I would hear it again. Play again.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
They can't say it anymore? Yeah, shut out, leave me alone,
It isn't going nine, don't go eight? You get that
feels just did it leave me alone?
Speaker 4 (03:45):
One?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yeah? All right. Playing on our team is not going
to make the playoffs. Nobody in baseball wanted you. You're
a loser, nobody wanted you. Let us discuss the question,
what are your thoughts on the Giants pitcher Blake Snell
and his leave me alone, Leave me alone doing a
victory lap following his no hit pitching performance over the weekend,
(04:07):
going to the ninth INNY. So, I've got Golds, Jim Aerosmith,
and Batman, and we will combine all of these things
together and make likability, which is something Blake Snell does
not have. Easy to hate now number who. I found
this whole thing amusing because Blake Snell says, you know what,
(04:31):
just in case people start to like me because I
pitched a no hitter, I want to make sure everyone
hates my guts. And then he started talking. He realized, boy,
this guy's a douche Canoe. My goodness, the poster boy
for athletes that are easy to pull against Blake Snell.
And again I go back to my point, the trade deadline,
(04:51):
all those big trophies that he's got from Cyon Wars,
and nobody was willing to meet the asking price. Blake
Snell nobody wanted him in baseball. The entire industry said,
we don't want you. And oh, by the way, in
the off season, nobody wanted Blake Snell either, and he
went to the Giants because nobody else would even give
(05:13):
him that crappy offer he signed with the Giants for.
So what does that say about Blake Snell? It tells
you the people of baseball know what a bad apple
this guy is. And he's great for five and a
third innings, but they don't want to deal with the
bull crap from Blake Snell. But this, I mean, the
gold standard, and we might have to add that. Now
(05:35):
leave me alone as a drop to the show. But
a while back, when the pandemic was going on, and
he said, I'm not playing unless I get mine and bra,
I'm risking my life, Broy, because you know a lot
of people died playing baseball during the pandemic. I mean,
how many body bags were there? I remember that one
Brewers game there was like seventeen players died in a
(05:58):
Brewers game on the It was wild. Yeah, they were
risking their life. It was crazy unless they weren't. Unless
that's bull crap, absolute bull crap, right, So we're supposed
to pretend you and I are supposed to pretend that
like that one game on Friday erases the entire body
(06:18):
of work, that that just works as deodorant. And for Snell,
it's like it's like going to gold gym. It's a
gold Gym special. That's your flex, Like, that's that's your
getting off point, that's your brag. That's an odd flex
to me. For Blake Snell, I mean you just well
you can rub some some soap onto some Irish spraying
(06:41):
or whatever and the smell goes away. So I did
some malor math here. Blake Snell has pitched in the
ninth inning in zero point four percent of his Big
League starts? Is that impressive? Is anyone impressed by that?
Anybody at all? Leave me alone? Leave me alone? Oh,
he said, all right, So two hundred and two starts
(07:02):
he's pitched into the ninth inning or beyond one time,
Numero uno one time for Blake Snell. Go take a bow,
do a victory lap? How about that? Yes? No, you dope.
What a dandelion? The man's a dandelion, Blake Snell. He
hit very delicate. Now I'll forever be grateful for Blake Snell,
because I remember the hardest World Series of all time,
(07:26):
twenty twenty, Game six, Tampa Bay and Los Angeles. Blake
Snell on the mound, dealing, but you knew it wouldn't
last because he's Blake Snell, and the guy's a coward.
And sure enough, hey, ah, I gotta come out of
the game. Ah by he got pulled Blake Snell in
the sixth inning of that game. He had thrown seventy
(07:46):
three pitches and they took him out of the game
because he couldn't handle it anymore because he's soft. And
then the Tampa Bay bullpen melted down because he could
not complete another eating or two wittings, which he easily
could have done with that pitch out. And so that's
where we are today. A guy couldn't handle the pressure.
And now we're supposed to believe because he went had
one game where he went all the way he's an
(08:08):
iron man. Now, yeah, okay, sure, please Blake Snell when
he's pitching. You know when Blake Snell's on the mound
that you're in good shape because the bullpen will be
called in. There'll be a conga line of relievers and
he's playing on a team. It's not gonna make the
playoffs this year. That's not happening. And so you look
(08:28):
at Blake Snell, You're like, well, nobody wanted him last year.
So he's just accumulating stats right now, hoping to hornswaggle
some random NFL, NBA team rather baseball. We'll get to
it eventually, some random baseball team to pay him gobs
and gobs of money. All right now, page two, Here
we go to the Bronx. We talked about this a
(08:49):
little bit earlier in the show with the who Am
I game? But Yankee Starjon Soto saying that it sucks
that the Blue Jays kept walking Aaron Judge over the
weekend on Saturday. It was three intentional walks. The Toronto
pitching coach, though, came out and said that this is
going to be the new normal that the Blue Jays
(09:10):
believe that they are on the cusp, but the ones
that started this year, So where are you at on that?
The Blue Jay coach saying that this is going to
become the normal standard chow around baseball that Aaron Judge
gets pitched around. And Juan Soto, he was a oh
man that sucks. So my first thought on this, in
(09:33):
terms of where I'm at is this, it's a referendum
on the Yankee line. I remember there was a guy
in the Mets who used to play for the Yankees
who came out a couple of weeks ago and was like, oh, yeah,
there's a two man team over there, got Soto and Judge.
And there was a big controversy, Oh could you trash
the Yankees like that? The Yankees were all upset, they
(09:55):
were angry, and so now you look at it, it's
been another month, and the guy was, that's absolutely right.
The Yankees are a two man variety show. That's what
the New York Yankees are this year. And that's why
Toronto can get away with pitching around Aaron Judge early
and often. You got Aaron Judge on one side, you
got one Soda on the other, and the rest of
(10:15):
the lineup is bupkus. That's what you have. So as
long as you don't let Aaron Judge beat you and
hit a ball to the moon, then you can continue
walking him. It's a cowardly strategy, but in terms of
wins and losses, wins and losses, it is effective. Let
somebody else beat you. As you look at that Yankee lineup,
(10:38):
who's exactly going to be that person? Because I don't
see that person. Do you see that person? I don't
see that. I don't see that. So for Aaron Judge,
he's got to be at this point now a big
Aerosmith fan because this is going to be his song.
Walk this way for the rest of the season. Because
you got John Carlos Stanton, who's a lightweight, even though
he when he makes contact one every week the ball
(11:01):
goes into orbit, it's on the launching pad. But that
didn't happen all that often. And then you look at
the rest of that Yankee lineup, there's nothing there. Austin Wells,
please all right? Now, final point, we go to Chicago,
where we are on the cusp of greatness. Well opposite
of greatness, I guess you could say. But I love
(11:22):
losing and I've always been a fan of losers. And
congratulations to the White Sox as they have outdone themselves
after the festivities of the weekend. With help from the
Minnesota baseball team, the Chicago White Sox have now lost
twenty games in a row. Congratulations White Sox. The pale
hoose at it again. So what is your reaction, Give
(11:43):
me your reaction to the White Sox. Now the losing
streak up to twenty in a row. So it's a
new level of stink for the White Sox. Every loss
they are adding on to the record. And they are
so close, so close to the record. Now, the modern
record for our purposes, the Baltimore Orioles of the late eighties,
(12:05):
and they started the season on a ridiculous reverse burner there.
But now you look at the White Sox here twenty
straight losses, and it just hits differently. It just hits differently,
and it's an all encompassing type of suck, as they
like to say in baseball. But the White Sox at
(12:25):
this point, their manager is now one hundred games under
five hundred since he took over there in Chicago, and
Jerry Reinsdorf and the White Sox that they're like, wow,
we suck. We Why would we fire the manager? Because
we still suck. It's not the manager, the players that stink.
The players would like you to believe it's the manager
that stinks. The manager would like you to believe it's
the players that stink, And It's likely a little bit
(12:46):
of both. But the White Sox are being run like
a batman villain is running the team right the joker, zero, zip,
zilch and nada. That's what the White Sox have in
the win come. They're owen sixteen the All Star Break.
They can't hit, they can't field, they don't pitch very well.
Other than that, they got a heck of a team
and this Chicago American League Baseball team. Now they get
(13:09):
what should be the magic elixir, a date in the
Bay Area with the Oakland Athletics. The final time in Oakland,
White Sox and As will play. White Sox are vacating
to go to Sacramento next year. So if the streak
does not end, and I hope it doesn't, I want
(13:30):
to see the As sweep the White Size. But if
it does not end, if I'm you know that goes
that direction, then no watch out because they got the
Cubs upcoming. That's a that's a winnablel the Cub's not
very good. You can win that, but then you start
stacking up better teams after that could luck to the
White Sox might might not just lose every game the
rest of the year. And the thing is I believe
(13:52):
they're actually trying. It's one thing if they're not trying,
but I think they're actually trying, and they suck like this,
which is even better. It just as a better story
that they're actually putting effort into this and they're not tanking.
They just are so bad at their jobs. It's awesome.

Speaker 1 (15:31):
Maller, Oh Baseball Heavy Mallard Monlogue. Begin Hour two, No
hitter over the weekend. Mister Luciana writes that he says
three point three out of ten on the Mallon monologue,
Blake has been pitching lights out the last couple of games.
The Giants will make the Wildcard. Other than that, not
gonna make the Wildcard, not gonna happen. And nobody wanted him. Nobody.
(15:52):
The Giants would love to have traded Blakes now they
tried to trade him. Nobody wanted the guy. It's an
indictment of Blake Snell. Ouf the Alien Opine says, much
like the White Sox, my Malard meet and greet streak
is alive and well, oops, all losses. We got to
get out to a mall of meet and Greek got
to get him out to a mall of meet and
Greek for sure. Ferk Dug says, do you think Blake
(16:13):
Snell's best friend? And if the rumors are true, David
Vessey is still celebrating the no hitter. Yeah, yeah, he
had a big, big celebratory weekend. At a big celebratory weekend,
they were going gaga. Yeah, Fat Daddy says, Big Ben.
I'm going to give you a sixty six and two
thirds percentage on the second Malon monologue out of the
(16:36):
three stories, I'm going to take away one third of that.
Does anybody care about Blake Snell? Because I don't. No, Well,
it's amusing. He's so obtuse. It's fascinating to be surrounded
by people like that in life. Outstanding, just absolutely gread.
The guy throws one game in not even it can
(16:57):
I'm talking about all the time people say, well, nobody
throws complete. He didn't get the ninth INNY usually didn't
get past the fifth INNY or the six. Let's go
to the phones. We'll say hello to Mark the full
name guy. Hello, Mark, the full name guy. What are
you complaining about today?
Speaker 4 (17:10):
Mark?
Speaker 1 (17:11):
What are you upset about?
Speaker 4 (17:12):
Oh? Well, mister nattering nabob of negaturty, there's no one
that complains like you do.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
No, no, you complain. You don't even realize it.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
You are.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
You complain NonStop, and you call me a complainer when
mirror mirror on the wall. Who's the most complaining of
them all?
Speaker 4 (17:28):
You Ben Mahler, stop it? You know I lamit that
I'm tired after ten or twelve days of hard work.
You don't even know what hard work is?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Wrong again, idiot? Yes, you just yourself, yourself, incriminating yourself.
You're you're a moron. Absolutely mating is hard work.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
And then you get on the air and complain about
people like Oh, Blake Snell, who stopped your Dodgers calls
Brover five and in the.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
World Series was on the mound. The Dodgers won the
World Series the game he started. They won the World Series,
the Championship. Much of your sugar in their hardest championship
of all time marked the full name guy in a
global pandemic.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
You know what, Ben Maller, You made up a story
about a threat that I've never made.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
You keep bringing it up. You bring it up. I
didn't bring it up. You brought it up. You said
justifiable homicide. I didn't say. You said it. And every
time you call now you bring it up. But you're
the guy that said it. I didn't say. You're the
one that said it.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Okay, let me finish my point.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
You keep bringing up. You won't let it go. Let
it go.
Speaker 4 (18:42):
The point to make mister Fauci put the fear of
God into too many people. Okay, so the game?
Speaker 1 (18:53):
How how does Fauci's name come up? This is between
me and you. This was before that.
Speaker 4 (18:58):
You want to talk about the vaccine?
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Sure, what do you mention the vaccine? I didn't talk
about the vague. What are you talking about? You're you're
going off there?
Speaker 2 (19:07):
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (19:10):
All right? I thank you? Who's that? He's gotta be
if with me? But then anybody's like Faucy in the vaccine,
which I did. Those two things. This happened before all
that COVID stuff happened. I was hello to Andre and
his fake dog willis Hello, Andre, how are you Ben?
Speaker 4 (19:30):
A good evening?
Speaker 8 (19:31):
Good good to be on with you listen to First
of all, you know, you started the show talking about
Alex Smith, you know, and the catastrophic injury that that
that that he endured, you know what I mean. And
from the standpoint, I just want to touch on that,
you know, because uh, you know, it's not the critic, right,
That's what I think about. It Not the critic who counts.
It's the person that's in the arena and that uh,
(19:52):
just devastating injury and quarterback escapes to my mind, Uh
played for the Redskins in the Lawrence Taylor a similar.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Interest Joe Joe Fisman. But here's the thing. You talking
about the critic and all that, But he sent out
a photo Andre of his mangled, mutilated leg. Now shouldn't
that Do we need to see that? Is that something
we need to see?
Speaker 4 (20:18):
You know, we don't need to see that.
Speaker 8 (20:19):
No, we don't need to see that, Ben. And that's
the point about TMI, you know what I mean, and
kind of knowing when enough is enough, you know. So
again Alex, Look, we're all not fans of grains anatomy. Okay,
all of us don't aspire to have careers in the
medical field.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
It's over it's oversharing, is what it is. You don't overshare,
you know, we don't need.
Speaker 8 (20:39):
But there's the full respect. But I'm one hundred percent agree.
You know, I saw again this before they did this wildness.
You know, he put the picture up where he had
his foot after the surgery, kind of all of the
in the splint and all the rest of that stuff.
That's fine, okay, but all the sort of details we
don't need now. So some of the details that I
did need been you know, and listen, I'm gonna be
(21:02):
fully transparent. I don't know if I can be above
a private in the mald militia. After I saw how
people came out to Vegas right to support and what
I saw on social media. People were traveling from Ohio,
people traveling from Tennessee, people traveling from Texas, all across
the Golden state of California North. I mean, people came
(21:23):
out and I was just taking it back. You know,
I saw that Eddie had a sign on him in
terms of some purpose purchases that he might have not made,
you know, so there was a little bit of a
discrepancy there. I also saw Ben for such an event,
the pricing was high, but wrecked, you know, high but
(21:43):
reasonable to be in the presence of a one mister Ben.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Mallein well Minor. There was no cover fee, and the
pricing was actually compared to what the prices are in
a lot of places, actually reasonable.
Speaker 9 (21:54):
I got three drinks for twenty one dollars.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Yeah, so I mean these are these are not nineteen
nineties rices. I mean in modern times. I know, as
soon as I crossed back into California, everything got much
more expensive. Gas went up a dollar. I know that.
So that was that was great.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
But yeah, so you know what I mean.
Speaker 8 (22:11):
So Ben, I just I tipped my hat. I show
full respect to the to the sergeants, to the lieutenants,
to the majors. We have some some some generals in
the Malad militia who took the time and showed up.
And I gotta step my game up. I gotta step
my game. I gotta find I gotta find a way.
But I'm not gonna be anything more in the private
and I saw I have a way to go.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Well, make a deal with you if you can get
Willis to bark on command, then you can move up
in the ranks.
Speaker 8 (22:35):
Okay, Uh, it might take some training again, and it's
late at night, but I'm gonna have to I'm gonna
have to get on that.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Because it did.
Speaker 8 (22:40):
There's been there's been too much. But Ben, thanks for
the time for the malle meet and great.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Thanks much respect. All right, thank you and appreciate great
honor we have Andre. We have had these things in
your neck of the woods, but you maybe you weren't
listening at the time, and make the trip and we'll
have to do one again at some point. Rob in
(23:06):
Vegas nailed it. Mentioned last hour there was one guy,
one guy who showed up that I didn't think was
going to show up and I didn't think was going
to actually follow through what he did. Mike in Vegas.
Now this guy, Mike, he's got some issues, my guy, Mike.
I'm worried about it. Worried about Mike and Vegas. A
(23:27):
few things going on with it.
Speaker 9 (23:28):
Didn't he karaoke a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
He did just a couple of times, right like every
other times. Yeah, Yeah, he's he's kind of reminds me
of beer drinking. Brian a little bit same vibe. He's
the guy that called up and said he's been arrested
for going into the Belagio fountains multiple times. He's the
(23:51):
guy that called up and told us the story about
how he was trying to climb a fence. He was
going to the bathroom. He climbed the fence, his pants
got stuck, he was hanging upside down everal hours. Yeah,
all that, and so Mike, uh, this has never happened.
I've done a lot of these events, and I've had
some interesting things happened. David in winter Park, Florida, brought
(24:13):
Roscoe the parrot, which is a stuffed animal that was
right up there. But Mike had a couple of bags
with him middle down his luck and he wanted to
have a drink, and rather than pay the the price
of the Big Ben beer or lorrain Is drink or
Coop's drink or Eddie's drink, he just you know what
I'm gonna say, You get some mouth wash out here
(24:33):
and start guzzling that.
Speaker 7 (24:38):
Wow, I had I had heard rumors about that. I
had did not. I did not know. Yeah it wasn't
I didn't know it was confirmed.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
But oh, no, I have I have a photo. I
posted it. It's on my social media. So he was smiling.
He's in a good mood. He was confused.
Speaker 10 (24:50):
He was a mood.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Yeah, yeah, I'm worried about him.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:55):
I mean, a guy who's who brings his own mouthwash
to drink it is not a good saying. Then he
did give me a sharpie.
Speaker 9 (25:01):
Though, do you want me to do you know what
flavor of listerine he was sipping on? I want to
try it.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
I don't even think. I don't even think Lee would
drink my mouthwise.
Speaker 9 (25:13):
I was thinking. I was like, is it is it
like incognito? Is it actually not listerine? Maybe it's a
vodka orange or something?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Oh you think it might have been something else? And
then I don't know. I mean, I'm looking at it
does not look thinking, I think, but it does not
look like you're right, it does the photo. I'm looking
at the photo here, it's on the Instagram page for
the show, and it doesn't look like you're traditional.
Speaker 9 (25:35):
No, it looks like it's mixed with something.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
You can have an open container in Vegas. What's the Yeah,
he just wants to think it is let's see, I'm
trying to enlarge the photo to see what is that?
But yeah, it's not the it's a kind.
Speaker 4 (25:49):
Of a.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
It looks like a urine type color, doesn't it. It
does a little bit like that. Yeah, who is that sure?
But he was. He was very happy, very super nice guy,
very nice man, very nice man. He was very hot
from the drinking. So at one point he pulled off.
He took a towel out of his bag and he
put some water on it and then just squeezed it
on top of his head to cool off a little bit.
Speaker 9 (26:12):
Well, there was no air conditioning in there. It got
a little stuffy for a second, a little bit.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
It was not, you know, one too bad, better than
being outside, better than the one hundred and ten degree,
whether that was outside the met and green anyway. It
is the bed Mali show, no merch man. We'll get
to that coming up. Also, we have Mallard of the
third degree in a little bit right now. Though, let's
get you crought up on everything going on in the
overnight and we say hello too, Eddie Garcia.
Speaker 7 (26:37):
All right, thanks man. We'll start with the Olympics in Paris,
where US sprinter Noah Liles won the hundred meter dash
by five thousands of a second in a photo.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Photo finish down the stretch they come.
Speaker 7 (26:47):
That was something there, But congrats to Noah Lyles for
winning one of the more high profile events at the
Summer Games. In swimming, US took gold in the women's
four by I wanted to meter relay, while American Bobby
Fink took gold in the fifteen hundred meter freestyle set
a world record as well. American Scotti Scheffler won a
gold medal in Golfin the cyclist Kristin Falker took gold
in the road race. US women's basketball team be Germany
(27:09):
eighty seven sixty eight. They're three to zero in Paris,
and that's fifty eight straight wins in the Olympics for
the women's basketball team, US leading the total medal count
by a large margin, seventy one total medals, nineteen gold,
tied with China for the most, twenty six silver and
twenty six browns as well. Hey, baseball games of note,
you had the White Sox losing to the Twins twelve
to seven. Why is that leading the games of note?
(27:30):
Because that's twenty losses in a row for Chicago, just
one short of the American League record for longest ever
losing skit.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Come on, you can do it, Chicago.
Speaker 7 (27:38):
The Orioles beat the Guardians and a battle of division
leaders nine to five Cleveland on top of the ALE Central,

The NLIC leaders snapped their six game skid Zach Wheeler
eight shoutout innings he and twour leaders combining on the

they're still a game back of the Mariners. In the
AL Wes, Dodgers lead the nl Wes. They edged the
A's three to two. Brewers on top of the NL
Central fall to the Nationals four to three. Check in
(28:22):
the NL wildcard race, Braves, Potterys, and Domabacks holding down
those three wildcard spots. Braves are shut out by the
Marlo's three nothingk Potterys beat the Rockies ten to two,
and the Damabacks edged the Pirates six to ty. Paul
Skeen's a no decision for Pittsburgh and that one Mets

the last wildcard spot in the National League American League
wildcard race. The Yankees, Twins, and Royals holding down to

three AL wildcard spots for Kansas City, they edged the

bowels of Dodger State of a Babruth wearing the Brooklyn
Dodger uniform. No, the correct answer is Matt Kemp. Matt
Kemp at twenty eleven excited. Well, we're excited about this.

and I believe he is the rock benefactor. I believe
(31:29):
he is. Hello, Nathan. How you doing, Nathan. It's very
nice to meet you over the weekend.
Speaker 11 (31:35):
I had a lot of time man, me and my wife.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Awesome. It was great to see your wife as well.
And I didn't realize that you had. I don't remember
you handing it to me. Did you hand me the rock?
I don't remember you handing it. You left the rock
on the table, Is that correct, Nathan?
Speaker 4 (31:49):
Yeah?
Speaker 11 (31:49):
Well I passed him on the Lorena because we have
a little bit in common. But you know, given her,
what do you have in common?
Speaker 1 (31:57):
What do you have in common with Lorena?
Speaker 11 (32:00):
We were both born in the same town.
Speaker 9 (32:02):
Yes, that's what you said, Frosburg.
Speaker 11 (32:04):
Oh he's a Yeah, he's an Indian right by the
school Indians baby.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
Okay, Well it's a small it's a small world, after all,
it's a small, small world. I did notice there was
an army in the back where you were, Nathan, you
had there was a giant The Giant game was on there.

Do you want any money while you were there?
Speaker 11 (32:45):
You know what I gambled. I gambled on the way
out of town, and I went about BN.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
Your buck nice. And see that's good because you don't
have to pay taxes on that, because if you go
over a certain amount, you got to pay taxes. So
you want to win just under the amount you don't
have to pay the taxes and all that. Are you
driving back still? Are you heading back home? Yeah?
Speaker 11 (33:02):

Jamar something lamar oh, that's from the TV show Okay
brock Lesnar from King Roy that's his answer. Who else

Mala Prop Guy though he's such a big time guy.
Though he shows up in studio, but not to the

The correct answer is Nathan Peterman Eddie saw throw How

Speaker 5 (39:21):
Ben.
Speaker 10 (39:21):
Defensive star Joey Bosa left Chargers practice early with a
hand slash wrist injury.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
Ben, what's your reaction. My reaction is, this is what
he does. This is what Joey Bosa does. He gets hurt.
He's appeared in just fourteen games over the last two seasons.
This is his superpower. And now Jim Harbaugh is getting
the full Charger experience. You got the quarterback hurt, you
got that defensive star hurt. That's Charger football.
Speaker 10 (39:48):
Next, Bears All Pro quarterback Jalen Johnson scoffed at his
lack of inclusion on the NFL's top one hundred list
and said it will motivate him next season.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
Ben, did he get aron deal? No, he plays for
the Bears. The Bears have been an embarrassment. I know
they played a little bit better at the end of
last year, but no, the Bears make the playoffs and
then you get all the glory. Everyone kisses your ass
and they lick your toes and all that. No, we're
not at that point right now, and so good hold
the garage and you can when you do, have a
good year, he said, well, just because the haters.
Speaker 10 (40:18):
Next, Paul Skins is heading towards a career high inning count,
but the pirates say they have a plan to manage
his workload.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
Ben, what do you think about it? No, I hate this.
You know this is a pet peeve lee As a
Dodger apologist, they have been babying pitchers with pitch counts
and they still need Tommy John surgery. Why instead of
lowering the amount of innings in the workload, why don't
you stretch out the innings. Wouldn't that be a better
way to approach things to have him expect to pitch
(40:46):
longer in the game. Anyway, how did we down? It's
a barely a pass. That's hey, sees get degrees and
the worst doctor stills a doctor.
