Talking bass ball. It's our number one, hour one and oh.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
What fun it is here the day before Halloween and
it's the thirtieth of October, the Ben Malor Show. We
were up all night, all night long, never taking a
breath to give you this fresh podcast on demand, dabbling
in the toxis toxic waste dump. That is the World Series. Well,
(00:27):
the Blue Jays went away, They took care of the Dodgers.
They boat raced them in the game last night. And
then Dodger pitcher Blake Snell said he doesn't make excuses.
He blamed bad luck for his garbage performance. That is blank.
We're looking for the word that Dodger pitcher Blake Snell
blaming bad luck for his garbage performance.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
That is blank.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Also, what is your opinion on Mookie Betts spatting a
buck thirty in the World Series taking responsibility for his
lousy play for the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
And on the other side for Vladdie and the Blue Jays.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
What is the vibe around the Blue ja is right
now as they are sitting pretty in the catbird seat.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
We'll get to that in more right now here, it
is a toe tap in good time in our number.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
One definitely not dodging.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Defeat.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Where is that Welcome In the beginning of another night
of the Ben Mal Show.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
We are in the air everywhere with fresh thoughts as
we offer freshness at its finest coast to coast, border
to border.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
And beyond on the mast and spectacularly powerful microphones of
fsre emmundating live do it live from the Dragon, the
fire breathing.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Dragon of audio from the world.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, as approved by Manuel in
Guardina and Andrew in Bakersfield. This portion of the Van
Mallor Show on Fox made possible in part by our
friends at tire Rack That's right. For over forty years,
I'm told that's a long time. Tire Rack has been
helping customers like Alf and Fergdog find the right tires
(02:20):
for how, what and where they drive, ship fast and
free back by free road hazard protection, which makes mister
Knights Guy happy. With convenient installation options like mobile tire installation,
tire rack dot Com, The Way Tire Buying Show. So
we're back at it and win loser draw. When you
(02:41):
have a syndicated talk show, you do the show no
matter what. You come in and you talk. You have
four hours, no matter what. Now, years ago, long long ago,
I did the local local radio. Somebody, you get covered off,
you get nights off. You know, it's easy street, easy street.
But to hear, we do it no matter what, no
matter what's going on, We're in our lead this hour
(03:01):
from Los Angeles. And that was the playground for a
game a season, not in one, not two, not three,
not by this game number five, Game five, twenty five,
twenty twenty five World Series, and the really the pivotal game.
I was every game's pivotal But they said what this
tied to too? The winner of Game five goes on
and wins the World Series.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
So the Dodgers and Jays at Loggerheads on a warm,
toasty day in LA. And I'm not sure if you're
watching or not. Ratings are down for the World Series
because the Yankees aren't in it. Uh and so maybe
you used it. But Trey, you savage, a savage beast,
as he said, a world sis record with twelve strikeouts.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I think that's good.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
And Toronto opens up Game five with back to back
dingers and they boat race the pathetic Los Angeles Baseball team.
They got how many jumbo jets when they go on
the row, they stay at the penthouse when they travel
like rock stars, and they hit like a bunch of
you know watts. So Toronto now one game away from
(04:10):
the first championship since Joe Carter back in the nineties.
Holy Canoa nineteen ninety three. Davis Schneider, Davis Schneider, the
Rants mullinicks of this Blue Jay team and Vladimir Guerrero
Junior connecting on Blake's bro I'm riched in my life, Bro,
(04:31):
Blake Snell there the first and third pitches. Boy, you
hate to see Blake Snell have problems.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Don't you?
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Just a shame of my life.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
It's just so so depressing, it's so sad.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Aha, you lose it first consecutive home runs to start
a World Series game, Fella. They've been playing the World
Series a long time, and nobody's bigger suck bag than
Blake Snell. You savage shoved it down the Dodgers' throats
from there, and now the better story is in the
losing locker room. Everyone knows the better stories and losing
(05:01):
locker room. So that is where we will begin. And
we were given the gift of a cringeworthy quote from
the aforementioned Blake Snell, who was not only a pitcher,
he was terrible. And there's no other way to say it.
So Snell just horrible. They should put him up on
charges for him taking that Dodger money the way he
(05:21):
was pitching there and lead off home run and then
another home run.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Did you hear what he had to say after the game?
You did not? All right? Fair enough? Blake Snell said,
this is great.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
He thinks the reason he had his problems in the
World Series game here.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Was because of two words. Bad luck.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I what a loser, Blake Snell says, luck plays in
baseball two, he said, pointing out that he was because
not his fault. He made great pitches and they just
happened to hit him to the moon. All right, So
that is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss
the question for the esteem panel. Dodger pitcher Blake Snell
(06:15):
didn't want to get the rona blaming bad luck for
his garbage performance. That is blank again, Dodger pitcher Blake's
and now blaming bad luck for his garbage World Series performance,
That is blank.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I saw I'll fill the blank in a minute.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
My thoughts though, before we fill in the blank, I've
got breakfast, Cereal, Kurt Vovaqua, and post office, and we
will combine all of these things together and we're gonna
we just have a delicious Smorgesborg of goodness. Now, Hey,
my word to fill in the blank Dodger Pitcher Blake's
(06:55):
and now blaming bad Luck for his garbage performance is blank.
My word is is gobbled the gook. That is my word,
gobbled the gook, plain and simple. All right, that's it.
That's my word. As Jayscoop, I haven't heard from him,
and I hope he's all right. But Jay Scoop would
say bull pucky is what he would say. He meaning,
Blake Snell, you've just lost. Imagine this like a Disney commercial.
(07:20):
Blake Snell, you've just lost both starts in the twenty
twenty five World Series.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
What are you gonna do next?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
And Snell says, I'm gonna blame Frank Sinatra is what
I'm gonna do?
Speaker 1 (07:31):
What a dead musician? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Remember the song Luck be a Lady. Apparently Luck the
lady was not there. Lady Luck was not there? Really, Blake,
that's your defense that's your defense.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
You know what?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
This is the breakfast seial defense from Blake Snell. What
do I mean by that? Instead of eating his lucky charms?
Clearly Blake Snell had captain crunch because Toronto was crunching.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Everything he threw up there early in the game.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Now, bad luck is a longtime baseball term. The base
It's like saying the baseball gods were against me. And
when I hear that, I always say, talk to the hand.
Now you can talk to the right hand, you can
talk to the left hand. Blake Snell gave up in
eleven and two thirds innings ten earned runs. Let me
(08:23):
repeat that for those of you that are intoxicated. Those
are in the back of the room that need to
turn up your hearing aid. Blake Snell gave up ten
earned runs and eleven and two thirds innings of World
Series Baseball. Now where I come from, and maybe I'm
wrong on this, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I just do an overnight talk show.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
That's not bad luck, that's bad pitching. Oh, you're being
such a shock chalk. That's what you hate the Dodgers.
You're doing overnights. Yeah, I know all that stuff, all
your defenses do you realize the domination for the Toronto batteries.
The hitters were basically taking batting practice against mister cy Young.
(09:03):
Mister cy Young, in fact, I was actually worried. This
is how pathetic Blake Snell is. I was worried about
these guys getting carpal tunnel from smashing the pitches so
often that he threw up there. They needed ice, that
they needed some kind of risk therapy afterwards. This was
not one bad outing, by the way, Patternicity. My friend
(09:24):
Snell was awful in his first World Series start this year,
both times out, and you can't blame that on the
Voodoo Bugaloo or whatever or Lady Lucker's anything. And to
think the Dodgers handed this stiff one hundred and eighty
two million dollars.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
They said, we need you to be we need you
to be our.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
October goat, and Blake Snell said, yes, I want that.
And instead of being a goat, he's looking for a
scape goat is what he's looking for, like a soft
served cone melting on the big stage. And it's crazy
because he pitched in lowly Tampa Bay and was good
(10:08):
in the world. Said you put on that Dodger uniform
and all of a sudden, you're riding the vomit comet.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
You're riding the vomit comet, is what you're doing.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Uh, here's a Blake Snell by the way, postgame, Blake
Snell who for some reason thought he was at a
dog park.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Take a listen.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
I mean, yeah, it's frustrating when you lose. We got
we got two games left and we can go back
to Toronto and you know, see what kind of team
we got. That's that's the most important thing. See see
what kind of dogs are in this clubhouse?
Speaker 1 (10:39):
And then what we can do. Yeah, I'll tell you
what kind of dogs. You have?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Dogs with fleas. You need a fleet back. These guys
need a fleeback. They're dogs with fleas.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
They are there, they can hear them. There's a dodge.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
That's a Dodger clubhouse. We got a microphone in the
Dodger clubhouse. There are a bunch of dogs covered in fleas.
So to me, the cherry on top of all this,
and I have long ranted howling at the moon about
the coddling of the professional athlete and the.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Things that we used to do. Or you overcame adversity.
There is no adversity.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
These guys, like I said, the Dodgers travel like they're
the royal family. They do just absolutely great. And they
treated Blake Snell like a toddler. They coddled Blake Snell
like a newborn baby. Actually not even a toddler. Oh,
Blake Keith, you know he's very delicate. We're gonna manage
his innings. Blake, you want to take three months off?
(11:38):
You want to do that? You know we'll save your
arm because we just need you for the world too. Okay,
I'll take three months off. Yes, pay me, I'll take
three months off. Sure, how's that? ROI that return on investment?
Let's see here, Blake Snell World Series, right, he will
not pitch again. Be shocked if he does. Eight point
zero four ERA. In the twenty twenty five World Series,
(11:59):
Dodgers lost both games. Toronto batted three to eleven against
Blake Snell paid him one hundred and eighty two million
dollars to go out there and defecate on the mound.
Tremendous all right, Now, now we get to everyone else's
bashing the offense. I want to hey, listen, that's low
hanging for you know, we have a pass with Blake
Snell going back to the pandemic.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
But I ain't playing this. I get mine.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Bro Well, I guess you're not winning the list. You
got yours, but you got yours, and you're still not winning. Now,
as for the offense, we've been told that this roster
is filled with Hall of.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Famers, that they are loaded one of the.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Greatest baseball teams ever assembled by man, a collection of
MVPs and All Stars and batting champions, and we've witnessed
them come apart at the seams. Now, the face of
this baseball catastrophe is Mookie Betts was playing like Dookie
(12:52):
if you know what I mean. Not good, not good
at all. The former Most Valuable Player is batting a
buck thirty. It's like having back when he used to
have pictures hit other than Otani. It's like that having
a pitcher in the lineup buck thirty. In the World Series,
he was demoted in the lineup. He was dropped down
(13:12):
on the lineup as Dave Roberts and the nerds finally decided,
you know, I.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Don't think we should maybe do something, but the analytics said,
don't do anything. Okay, we'll do something. Oh well, but
they said, don't do anything. So the nerds shook up
the lineup.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
They benched Andy Pyez and Mookie Bets demoted down a
spot in the lineup and he went.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Over for it.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
So it turns out Mookie sucks whether he's betting second
or third in the Dodger lineup.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Not good. Do we have this Mookie post game? I
don't know if we do or not.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
We do, Okay, apparently we do, all right, So here's
Mookie Bets. This is the viral SoundBite. Postgame. Mooki was
asked about his new level of suckage in the World series.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Here's what he had to say.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
I don't want to speak on anybody else, but for
me personally, I've just been terrible.
Speaker 7 (14:03):
I've been terrible and there's no.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
I wish it was from lack of effort.
Speaker 7 (14:08):
I really do, but it's not.
Speaker 8 (14:09):
So.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Yeah, I don't have any I was cut off good editing.
He said, I don't have any answers. Who edited that?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
By the way, I mean, just leave the word answers
in there. It's not that hard, all right. Question, what is.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Your opinion of Mookie Bets taking responsibility with his I've
just been terrible quote for his lousy play in the
twenty twenty five World Series for the Dodgers. So my
reaction is, thank you very much, Mokie. The sky is
blue right to the you and I. The sky is
(14:44):
no kidding, Mokie. I mean, we've got TVs, we've got radios,
we've been watching, we've been listening. You're batting a buck thirty.
You don't get credit for self awareness when the numbers
are tattooed on the jumbo trunk. They're all up there
right they're batting it now, right now. Mookie Bets looks
(15:05):
like a guy walking into the deli and he's ordering
a sandwich. He says, I don't want the pastrami, simms.
How about a turkey. I don't need a turkey, Simms.
Let me get that number seven. What's the number seven?
That's the panic sandwich. Mookie's eating a panic sandwich, and
you don't need any clutch hits. Hold the clutch hits
on the panic sandwich. Can I get some extra whiffs?
Can I get some extra pop ups?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
I need that? Yeh, sure, why not? We'll give you
extra pop ups.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
It's the freaking world series pal, and you can't suck
like that. I mean you sucking at a time you
cannot suck. That's the definition of this now more evidence.
As my professor of the Great Dick Stockton taught me
years ago, stat's tell you what has happened, not what's
going to happen. If you just based this World Series
on reputation and the numbers on the back of the
(15:49):
baseball card, the Dodgers would have already won the World Series.
But unfortunately they have to play the games. And right
now what has happened all those MVPs and so called stars.
They're treated like the royals when they travel, are playing
like Little League be team guys. If I owned the Dodgers,
I would make these stiffs fly to Toronto on Spirit Airlines.
(16:10):
As punishment, I would make them fly Spirit Airlines. They'd
have to pay for their own luggage. That's what I
would do.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Now.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
The late great Tommy Lasorda, may he rest in peace.
And I was lucky enough to know Tommy. But Tommy
would say, the Dodgers right now have a lot of
Kurt Bovakua's in their lineups. It's one of the all
time great drops. If you're too young to know it.
It's on the YouTube and it was one of the
great rants, underrated rant by Thesorta, and he would say,
these guys couldn't hit water if they fell out a
(16:38):
frickin boat.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
The Dodgers are hitting.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Two hundred, two hundred in the World Series two hundred.
I didn't realize the Blue listen. I took the Blue
Jays lightly. They're pitching.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I didn't know they were filled with all these cy
young winners.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Max Munsey buck fifty, Tommy Edmund, Tommy Tanks is tanking
the world hit a buck forty three, and then the
gold standard Mookie Bets buck thirty, buck thirty. Holy crap
on a cracker now, Jeff Van Gundy, I know it's
a basketball guy, but Van Gundy's famously said it's a
make or miss league. Well, Baseball two, you're whiffing early,
(17:16):
you're whiffing offen.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
The Blue Jays.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
What they ought to do is send a fleet of
limos to the hotel there at Toronto. Make sure Munsey
and Tommy Edmond and Will Smith and Mookie Bets, all
these guys get to the stadium in comfort, because right
now the Dodgers if you look in that clubhouse, it's
an art exhibit, and what kind of art is it
that would be the choke art exhibit? The choke artists
(17:39):
I got now, don't get me wrong. Okay, you knocket
me wrong. I appreciate Mookie Bets owning it. I just
don't need a confession at this moment. The series isn't over.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
I would like to get a couple of hits.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I would enjoy a couple of home runs that would
be pretty nice, or at least a Ribby single, how
about that. It's the world series. This is not therapy. Okay,
I'm not that kind of fan. I know there's a
lot of fanboys out there and told lickers that will
love that and say, oh, we love you, Mooki.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
It's okay, that's not me. That's not me.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Oya. Accountability is nice. I just happen to like production
a little bit better I do.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
I do.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
I like production, and you can apologize all you want. Unfortunately,
when you look at the box score, it does not
accept my bad bro.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
It does not accept that. All right.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Last word to the Toronto side of things and what
a performance was by trey Ya Savage of the Blue Jays.
The quote from the Blue Jays from Vladimir Guerrero, Junior Vlattie,
who got it done again. Here's the Toronto Star, Vladimir Grera,
who said, quote the job is not done yet. Close
(18:47):
quote said that through a translator. All right, question, what
is the vibe? What is the vibe around the Blue
Jays right now at this moment. So the vibe is
the schnazola. You can smell the championship bubbly, you can
smell it. The Dodgers are practically handing Toronto the World Series.
(19:09):
They are the beneficiary of the generosity, the act of
charity of the Dodgers. They've gift wrapped it. They've thrown
on a bow which looks pretty nice. It's a Dodger
blue bow. And the J's now they just got to
make sure they don't fumble. Don't fumble the gift, all right,
don't fumble it, don't trip at the post office, don't
(19:30):
break it, don't do that. And the fact that the
Dodgers have collectively gone in the witness protection program, and
this tray is savage doing things that the greatest of
the greats have done in the World Series. Getting a
lot of help from the anemic Dodger hitters. There guy's
been in Major League Baseball for about five minutes and
(19:51):
made the Big Bad Dodgers look like a slow pitch
Beer League softball team on the weekends there and search
slicing them up. No contest the last couple of games.
So what does all this mean for Toronto? It is
yours to lose. The Dodgers were the big bad bully.
(20:12):
They're no longer the big bad bully. Toronto's up three
to two. Home cooked poutin ahead, home cooked poutin ahead.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
But remember Vladimir Guerrero showed up wearing a maple.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Leafs jersey to I think it was the first game
in the World Series, remember correctly, and that'll come back
to haunt you if you blow these last two games.
You know the maple Leafs are in that town. They're
the definition of choke artists, and so just don't choke.
You've got Vladdie saying job's not done good, it's not
and it's been a long time since Joe Carter and
(20:45):
then you know, hit the ball to the moon and
the Mitch Williams and all that ninety three. So you
finished the job now, or you become another cautionary tale
in Canadian sports misery. And there's a long, long, big
board of that. So you can smell it right in
a champagne there. You can smell the champagne.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Can spell it's not open. One more win and Yama
Moto on the map. The problem with Yamamoto pitch great game.
The Dodgers, if they don't get their head out of it,
took us. They got this tight Tukas syndrome.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
It doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
So Dodgers are like zombies. But we've seen those zombie
apocalypse movies and we know how that can turn around
and be a fairly bad thing. So the Dodgers are
pretty much begging Toronto to end the World Series in
game six, and that's it. Just I would advise you
to not trip over the red carpet on your way
to the parade. And it's like they say in politics,
(21:40):
don't measure for the curtains yet you haven't won the election,
so just gotta wait for the election to end, the results.
Speaker 1 (21:45):

I did. I almost had a night off from the
Ben Mather Show.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
We came real close to just doing one segment and
then burn Baby Bird. So Lorena, would you like to
explain to the class here Lorena, we have a kitchen
if you visit an a tree and so few of
you guys have Robbie the Mariner, if a few guys
have been in here over these we we have, much
to the dismay of management, we let our friends come
hang out with us every once in.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
A while, as long as they're not scary.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
And the Leprechaun's been in so we have the Smurf kitchen,
and it's not much of a kitchen. Looks pretty nice.
There's not too much in there's a nice refrigerator, and
there's a sink, and there's a usual office stuff. There's
a coffee machine. I don't drink coffee. There's a little microwave.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
And and there's a for some reason, there's a dishwasher.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
And uh, anyway, Lorena, you were deciding you wanted to
hook some you wanted to cook something up.
Speaker 10 (25:55):
I believe is that the So I have a I
have a cheese steak sandwich that I haven't eaten yet,
and so I left it in the bag, you know,
like a Jimmy John sandwich.
Speaker 11 (26:04):
How it's wrapped in the paper bag.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Yeah, free smells. The smells are free.
Speaker 10 (26:09):
So anyways, I put the bag in the microwave.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
She just wanted to heat it up a little bit.
He thought, why not.
Speaker 10 (26:15):
Yeah, And I hear this little crackling sound and I'm like, okay,
I'm like, it's the microwave broken.
Speaker 11 (26:19):
So I like literally stepped back because I'm like, in
case it.
Speaker 10 (26:21):
Explodes, I'm just going to step back. And I went
and I stopped it.
Speaker 11 (26:25):
For a second.
Speaker 10 (26:25):
I was like, okay, I only got twenty seconds left.
It's fine, put it back in pop pop pop. And
then I see a flame through the microwave.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Oh my god, and.
Speaker 11 (26:33):
I'm like, oh no, I'm like, what do I do?
What do I do?
Speaker 10 (26:37):
So I try and pull like the bag out, and
then I realized there's more flames than I expected. So
I grabbed a cup of water and I threw a
little bit of water and that didn't do much. So
then I threw more water and now there's a pool
in the microwave.
Speaker 11 (26:48):
My sandwich apparently is okay?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Though, Okay, now did fire did Fire Marshall Bill make
an appearance?
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Jim Carrey's Fire? That's a gated reference. I think gets that.
By the way, that was a great I think's stated though?
Is that too Is that too old? Is that? Is
that a bad reference? Okay?
Speaker 7 (27:04):
Well, did you know that there is a scene and
Liar Liar where he is in the background behind some
extras dressed up as Fire Marshall Bill.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
I did not know that. Look at that.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
That's a fun fact, right, that's a Cooper little fun fact,
Fire Marshall Bill.
Speaker 7 (27:22):
That's during that during the airport scene when he's when
he's on the stretcher.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Okay, see, now everyone's gonna go watch the movie, Coop,
and you'll make a couple of bucks because they're gonna
watch the movie and then see where let me say,
you can spot fire Marshall Bill in the movie. So
he would have made an appearance to let me show
you something just like that. Right, But so the question
is a is the damage enough to destroy the said microwave?
Speaker 7 (27:47):
Okay, this is why it probably shouldn't have brought this.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Okay, all right, all right, all right, all right, Yes,
so no one listens to our show the world.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Everyone listened just just between so we're not going to
tell anyone that the place was smell.
Speaker 11 (28:02):
It smells like marshmallows, like if you were roasting marshmallows.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Yeah, that's what kind of Now, now did you unplug it?
I assume you unplugged it. Yes, no, because it's still
I mean, we why don't you go unplug it? I no,
I'm not kidding me. Sometimes the names on top of
(28:26):
I understand, but I sometimes this stuff is kind of smolders.
Speaker 11 (28:29):
And then I would I will send you a picture
of it so you can know, but.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
I would like unplug it. And then I would like
put it out in the courtyard.
Speaker 11 (28:38):
Well not that sandwich outside.
Speaker 10 (28:40):
About that fine time someone burnt popcorn, Now that was
a real big deal.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Okay, that one that Well, when I started, I want
you to know I when I started the Premiere Networks,
we had this guy, Craig Kitchen, who was like the
coolest boss.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Everyone loved him, like the greatest guy, like a radio savant.
Craig Kitchen.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
I mean just I think he's Jim Rome's agent now,
but he be came an agent, but he was running
the company and he could not have been a cooler guy.
He had one rule when I started at the Premier
Netway and this was like big time, you know I started.
These all big radio stars worked at Premiere Networks. They
still do, but it was like it was a huge deal.
And the one rule was you're not allowed to make
popcorn at work because he hated to smell the burn popcorn,
(29:18):
and so that was it.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
That was the only rule.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
You could do pretty much anything else you wanted, but
you could not cook popcorn at work. No salmon, I
don't know about salmon.
Speaker 11 (29:27):
I just remember the pops.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Well, salmon should not go in the microwave. So if
you put the salmon, that's like a stupid test. If
you put sam in the microwave, that's bad job by you.
Bill says, I live in Hollywood, and I says, I
can he can smell the fire.
Speaker 11 (29:42):
Over in Bring me a sandwich?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Who's your Bill.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Says he can smell the burn microwave over the hill there.
So yeah, all right, anyway, okay, well, good luck on me.
I would unplug it.
Speaker 11 (29:53):
I was just meet but you know you, I'll send
you a picture in our all.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Right, send me a photo. Okay, that's great.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
Andy in Lino lakes rights and he says another A
plus Malay monologue. A lot of people don't want to
hear the truth. But that's what you do, man, You
spew the truth.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
That's right. I vomit the truth is what I do.
My name is Ben Mahler, and I.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Puke up the truth on a nightly basis. So the
Dodgers are cooked. According to Andy, I saw some feathers
flying around. They may have a game left in them,
but they're cooked.
Speaker 11 (30:25):
There you go, extra crispy, please.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
Ahead of the news, Rights and says, why is Mary
Hart leaving to beat the traffic? At eight pm? She's
not leaving to beat the traffic. She's leaving to beat
the traffic at Dodger stad Plus didn't.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
Her I think it was her?
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Guy Right got hit with a foul ball during the
game outs Yeah, yeah, he's sitting front row there and
clunk a reek in Minnesota rights and says, I love you, Ben.
But talking about the Dodgers as if they were the
twenty seven Yankees, it is ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
They are more like the eighty seven Twins.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
It's not over, but our Doyers need to put a
bat on the ball and fast.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Well.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Baseball media has been on, you know, have got their
knee pads on. They've been telling me that a Tani
is Babe Ruth. So if Atani's babe Babe Ruth was
on the twenty seven Yankees, all right, check that box.
Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman are Hall of famers. There
there go down the big board, a bunch of Hall
of famers. Scrooge right since says it's not just a
(31:31):
lack of production, it's also a lack of not giving
a crap. The Dodgers looked dead after the Game three
and never revived. I can see Yamamoto carrying the team
in game six. However, I don't see the Dodgers winning
a Game seven in Toronto, especially with that bullpen.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
That is Scrooge. He's in the younger demo. Scrooge is
in the younger demo there, so you gotta factor that in.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
And the post we have about posted by the way,
if you missed it, you can see the unofficial show
rundown of things that we will be talking about throughout
the overnight.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Follow me on X at Ben Mahler. That's at Ben Mallard.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Normally, when someone dies, there will be some kind of gathering,
whether it's a funeral or just a party to celebrate
a life.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Celebration of life, right, it's important thing, closure on someone's life.
Normally that you only get one.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
Well, Clayton Kershaw, how about is he getting We had
the digging up of the mound after his.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Final start, one of the more embarrassing moments in Dodger history.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
We had.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Now after this game Game five, the Kershaw Klan was
wandering around the field and glowing stories, very dramatic stories.
Clayton Kershaw lingered on the field at Dodger Stadium, soaking
in the sights and the sounds of the stadium he's
called home his entire career, and he shared an embrace
(33:01):
with his wife.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Oh my god, do we have any violin music for this?
Holy crap.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
He's a baseball He's a worst possison pitcher baseball history.
He's cost the Dodgers multiple World Series plays. Leave.
Speaker 8 (33:15):
Yeah, here's Clayton Kershaw, after an eighteen year career, played
his final game at Dodger Stadium, and he lingered like
a plague. He and his four children scampered about playing
catch father and son. There was the embrace with his wife,
(33:36):
who wore his jersey expecting another little Kershaw on the way,
as he dramatically kissed her forehead in an act of love,
and then went out to the mound one last time
to vomit all over the mound, just like almost every
playoff start he made as a Dodger, to remind Dodger
(33:57):
Stadium that he's the worst posis in at your of
all time.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
There you go, Hey, he got that. He got that
one out the other day. Yes, that's right. Yes, the
greatest moment of Kershaw one out in a game the
other night. Yes, that is it. That's the gold standard.
Oh my god, all right, I know.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (34:22):
You're beaner, You're Beaner schmuck. Understand again. I do love
that Blake.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
I started the show with this because I thought it
was so good. Blake snell with I don't make excuses,
and then made an excuse, which is to me just
just absolutely freaking great.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
You know, I don't make excuses, but here's here's an excuse.
Oh god, is this fun? I you know, nice like this?
Speaker 2 (34:47):
You know, I obviously I wanted the Dodgers to win,
but this is as Speccoli Spaccoli was so excited in
Chapel Hill.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
He sent me an email just going through my email here,
he sent me an email. Oh he's so excited.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
You know.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
The better story isn't losing locker room and so he's
like he's all fired up. He's fired up because.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
He thought the I guess he thought the Dodgers losing
would make for great greater talk radio.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
What he what he thought?
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Edgar says, Man, the older you get, the more bitter
you're getting our ratings down. No, we're actually doing better
than we've ever done. I don't think I'm bitter at all.
I think you're just used to soft ass talk show
host is what you're used to.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
You want those daytime guys. Everything shouldna be fine. The
Dodger's okay, I'm in a massage, O don like.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
I'm sure David Basset probably gave a shoulder rub and
he gave that I think shoulder rub to Snell. And
Coop was telling me that Mookie Betts got the manning
and the petty from bass and he made a sandwich
for Max Muncy.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
So there's there's that, all right.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
It is the Bean Mallor Show as we work our
way through the overnight hours.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
Time now though for the who am I game? Who
am I giving?
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Now? This is the part of the show where I
pretend to be somebody else and you you have to
listen and see if you can figure out who I am.
So Toronto's Treyya Savage struck out all nine batters and
the Dodgers starting lineup. Every one of those stiffs struck
out against Treyya Savage, who was pitching an a ball
in front of hundreds of people at the beginning of
(36:21):
the year. He joins Bob Gibson and me as the
third pitcher in World Series history. To strike out each
batter in the starting lineup of obviously the fall classic.
So Toronto's Trey You Savage, He's a Savage Beast. Toronto's
Traya Savage struck out all nine batters and the Dodgers
starting lineup joining Bob Gibson and me. Who has the
(36:42):
third pitcher in world serious history? Is strike out each
batter in a starting lineup?
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Who am I? That is the question. The answer. We'll
get to it. We'll do it next.

Mallard Monologue's back to it all, right, back to it quickly.
Let's get to the play of the day.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
And despite the world series, Kooperloo picks the play of
the day and he's demanding an NBA highlight his new
favorite Lakers. Some guy named Austin Reeves who did.
Speaker 1 (38:37):
This rules now with tho with thong, We're great. Austin
down the middle, guys to the game to win the game.
Speaker 2 (38:48):
The winner they are doing what they are does, gets
into the paint and all that celebration that the Timbers
you're doing six seconds ago.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
I'm not doing that, all right.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Bill McDonald and the stut Lance, longtime Laker voices there
on TV with the call as Austin Reeves hits the
game winner in Minnesota loses, the Lakers win it, and
it looks like Stu was annoyed by the celebration.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
Of the Timberwolves.
Speaker 2 (39:14):
That is the tire rack player of the day where
over forty years, ty iraq has been helping customers find
the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
ship fast and free back by free local, free road
hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation,
tire rack dot Com the way tire buying should be.
I saw that Austin Reeves the first Laker player to
have one hundred and seventy or more points and fifty
(39:35):
or more assists the first five games of a season.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Whatever that's worth. Time now though, for the who Am
I game?
Speaker 2 (39:41):
And the story everyone's talking about in baseball, Toronto's Trey
of Savage struck out all nine batters in the Dodgers
starting lineup, joins Bob Gibson and me as the third
pitch of the World Series history to strike out each.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
Batter in a starting lineup. Who am I?
Speaker 2 (39:55):
That is the question and what is the answer? Meat
Sauce guessed by Kevin very nice man. Yo, Well, he's
a big talk show host of Minnesota. I bonded with
Meat Sauce when I was in Vegas last week. Poppy
guest by mal prop Guy.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
What fun it is here the day before Halloween and
it's the thirtieth of October, the Ben Malor Show. We
were up all night, all night long, never taking a
breath to give you this fresh podcast on demand, dabbling
in the toxis toxic waste dump. That is the World Series. Well,
(00:27):
the Blue Jays went away, They took care of the Dodgers.
They boat raced them in the game last night. And
then Dodger pitcher Blake Snell said he doesn't make excuses.
He blamed bad luck for his garbage performance. That is blank.
We're looking for the word that Dodger pitcher Blake Snell
blaming bad luck for his garbage performance.
Speaker 1 (00:45):
That is blank.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Also, what is your opinion on Mookie Betts spatting a
buck thirty in the World Series taking responsibility for his
lousy play for the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
And on the other side for Vladdie and the Blue Jays.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
What is the vibe around the Blue ja is right
now as they are sitting pretty in the catbird seat.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
We'll get to that in more right now here, it
is a toe tap in good time in our number.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
One definitely not dodging.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Defeat.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
Where is that Welcome In the beginning of another night
of the Ben Mal Show.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
We are in the air everywhere with fresh thoughts as
we offer freshness at its finest coast to coast, border
to border.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
And beyond on the mast and spectacularly powerful microphones of
fsre emmundating live do it live from the Dragon, the
fire breathing.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Dragon of audio from the world.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, as approved by Manuel in
Guardina and Andrew in Bakersfield. This portion of the Van
Mallor Show on Fox made possible in part by our
friends at tire Rack That's right. For over forty years,
I'm told that's a long time. Tire Rack has been
helping customers like Alf and Fergdog find the right tires
(02:20):
for how, what and where they drive, ship fast and
free back by free road hazard protection, which makes mister
Knights Guy happy. With convenient installation options like mobile tire installation,
tire rack dot Com, The Way Tire Buying Show. So
we're back at it and win loser draw. When you
(02:41):
have a syndicated talk show, you do the show no
matter what. You come in and you talk. You have
four hours, no matter what. Now, years ago, long long ago,
I did the local local radio. Somebody, you get covered off,
you get nights off. You know, it's easy street, easy street.
But to hear, we do it no matter what, no
matter what's going on, We're in our lead this hour
(03:01):
from Los Angeles. And that was the playground for a
game a season, not in one, not two, not three,
not by this game number five, Game five, twenty five,
twenty twenty five World Series, and the really the pivotal game.
I was every game's pivotal But they said what this
tied to too? The winner of Game five goes on
and wins the World Series.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
So the Dodgers and Jays at Loggerheads on a warm,
toasty day in LA. And I'm not sure if you're
watching or not. Ratings are down for the World Series
because the Yankees aren't in it. Uh and so maybe
you used it. But Trey, you savage, a savage beast,
as he said, a world sis record with twelve strikeouts.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I think that's good.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
And Toronto opens up Game five with back to back
dingers and they boat race the pathetic Los Angeles Baseball team.
They got how many jumbo jets when they go on
the row, they stay at the penthouse when they travel
like rock stars, and they hit like a bunch of
you know watts. So Toronto now one game away from
(04:10):
the first championship since Joe Carter back in the nineties.
Holy Canoa nineteen ninety three. Davis Schneider, Davis Schneider, the
Rants mullinicks of this Blue Jay team and Vladimir Guerrero
Junior connecting on Blake's bro I'm riched in my life, Bro,
(04:31):
Blake Snell there the first and third pitches. Boy, you
hate to see Blake Snell have problems.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Don't you?
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Just a shame of my life.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
It's just so so depressing, it's so sad.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Aha, you lose it first consecutive home runs to start
a World Series game, Fella. They've been playing the World
Series a long time, and nobody's bigger suck bag than
Blake Snell. You savage shoved it down the Dodgers' throats
from there, and now the better story is in the
losing locker room. Everyone knows the better stories and losing
(05:01):
locker room. So that is where we will begin. And
we were given the gift of a cringeworthy quote from
the aforementioned Blake Snell, who was not only a pitcher,
he was terrible. And there's no other way to say it.
So Snell just horrible. They should put him up on
charges for him taking that Dodger money the way he
(05:21):
was pitching there and lead off home run and then
another home run.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Did you hear what he had to say after the game?
You did not? All right? Fair enough? Blake Snell said,
this is great.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
He thinks the reason he had his problems in the
World Series game here.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Was because of two words. Bad luck.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
I what a loser, Blake Snell says, luck plays in
baseball two, he said, pointing out that he was because
not his fault. He made great pitches and they just
happened to hit him to the moon. All right, So
that is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss
the question for the esteem panel. Dodger pitcher Blake Snell
(06:15):
didn't want to get the rona blaming bad luck for
his garbage performance. That is blank again, Dodger pitcher Blake's
and now blaming bad luck for his garbage World Series performance,
That is blank.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
I saw I'll fill the blank in a minute.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
My thoughts though, before we fill in the blank, I've
got breakfast, Cereal, Kurt Vovaqua, and post office, and we
will combine all of these things together and we're gonna
we just have a delicious Smorgesborg of goodness. Now, Hey,
my word to fill in the blank Dodger Pitcher Blake's
(06:55):
and now blaming bad Luck for his garbage performance is blank.
My word is is gobbled the gook. That is my word,
gobbled the gook, plain and simple. All right, that's it.
That's my word. As Jayscoop, I haven't heard from him,
and I hope he's all right. But Jay Scoop would
say bull pucky is what he would say. He meaning,
Blake Snell, you've just lost. Imagine this like a Disney commercial.
(07:20):
Blake Snell, you've just lost both starts in the twenty
twenty five World Series.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
What are you gonna do next?
Speaker 2 (07:27):
And Snell says, I'm gonna blame Frank Sinatra is what
I'm gonna do?
Speaker 1 (07:31):
What a dead musician? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Remember the song Luck be a Lady. Apparently Luck the
lady was not there. Lady Luck was not there? Really, Blake,
that's your defense that's your defense.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
You know what?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
This is the breakfast seial defense from Blake Snell. What
do I mean by that? Instead of eating his lucky charms?
Clearly Blake Snell had captain crunch because Toronto was crunching.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Everything he threw up there early in the game.
Speaker 2 (08:00):
Now, bad luck is a longtime baseball term. The base
It's like saying the baseball gods were against me. And
when I hear that, I always say, talk to the hand.
Now you can talk to the right hand, you can
talk to the left hand. Blake Snell gave up in
eleven and two thirds innings ten earned runs. Let me
(08:23):
repeat that for those of you that are intoxicated. Those
are in the back of the room that need to
turn up your hearing aid. Blake Snell gave up ten
earned runs and eleven and two thirds innings of World
Series Baseball. Now where I come from, and maybe I'm
wrong on this, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I just do an overnight talk show.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
That's not bad luck, that's bad pitching. Oh, you're being
such a shock chalk. That's what you hate the Dodgers.
You're doing overnights. Yeah, I know all that stuff, all
your defenses do you realize the domination for the Toronto batteries.
The hitters were basically taking batting practice against mister cy Young.
(09:03):
Mister cy Young, in fact, I was actually worried. This
is how pathetic Blake Snell is. I was worried about
these guys getting carpal tunnel from smashing the pitches so
often that he threw up there. They needed ice, that
they needed some kind of risk therapy afterwards. This was
not one bad outing, by the way, Patternicity. My friend
(09:24):
Snell was awful in his first World Series start this year,
both times out, and you can't blame that on the
Voodoo Bugaloo or whatever or Lady Lucker's anything. And to
think the Dodgers handed this stiff one hundred and eighty
two million dollars.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
They said, we need you to be we need you
to be our.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
October goat, and Blake Snell said, yes, I want that.
And instead of being a goat, he's looking for a
scape goat is what he's looking for, like a soft
served cone melting on the big stage. And it's crazy
because he pitched in lowly Tampa Bay and was good
(10:08):
in the world. Said you put on that Dodger uniform
and all of a sudden, you're riding the vomit comet.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
You're riding the vomit comet, is what you're doing.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Uh, here's a Blake Snell by the way, postgame, Blake
Snell who for some reason thought he was at a
dog park.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Take a listen.
Speaker 6 (10:26):
I mean, yeah, it's frustrating when you lose. We got
we got two games left and we can go back
to Toronto and you know, see what kind of team
we got. That's that's the most important thing. See see
what kind of dogs are in this clubhouse?
Speaker 1 (10:39):
And then what we can do. Yeah, I'll tell you
what kind of dogs. You have?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Dogs with fleas. You need a fleet back. These guys
need a fleeback. They're dogs with fleas.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
They are there, they can hear them. There's a dodge.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
That's a Dodger clubhouse. We got a microphone in the
Dodger clubhouse. There are a bunch of dogs covered in fleas.
So to me, the cherry on top of all this,
and I have long ranted howling at the moon about
the coddling of the professional athlete and the.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Things that we used to do. Or you overcame adversity.
There is no adversity.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
These guys, like I said, the Dodgers travel like they're
the royal family. They do just absolutely great. And they
treated Blake Snell like a toddler. They coddled Blake Snell
like a newborn baby. Actually not even a toddler. Oh,
Blake Keith, you know he's very delicate. We're gonna manage
his innings. Blake, you want to take three months off?
(11:38):
You want to do that? You know we'll save your
arm because we just need you for the world too. Okay,
I'll take three months off. Yes, pay me, I'll take
three months off. Sure, how's that? ROI that return on investment?
Let's see here, Blake Snell World Series, right, he will
not pitch again. Be shocked if he does. Eight point
zero four ERA. In the twenty twenty five World Series,
(11:59):
Dodgers lost both games. Toronto batted three to eleven against
Blake Snell paid him one hundred and eighty two million
dollars to go out there and defecate on the mound.
Tremendous all right, Now, now we get to everyone else's
bashing the offense. I want to hey, listen, that's low
hanging for you know, we have a pass with Blake
Snell going back to the pandemic.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
But I ain't playing this. I get mine.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Bro Well, I guess you're not winning the list. You
got yours, but you got yours, and you're still not winning. Now,
as for the offense, we've been told that this roster
is filled with Hall of.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Famers, that they are loaded one of the.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Greatest baseball teams ever assembled by man, a collection of
MVPs and All Stars and batting champions, and we've witnessed
them come apart at the seams. Now, the face of
this baseball catastrophe is Mookie Betts was playing like Dookie
(12:52):
if you know what I mean. Not good, not good
at all. The former Most Valuable Player is batting a
buck thirty. It's like having back when he used to
have pictures hit other than Otani. It's like that having
a pitcher in the lineup buck thirty. In the World Series,
he was demoted in the lineup. He was dropped down
(13:12):
on the lineup as Dave Roberts and the nerds finally decided,
you know, I.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Don't think we should maybe do something, but the analytics said,
don't do anything. Okay, we'll do something. Oh well, but
they said, don't do anything. So the nerds shook up
the lineup.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
They benched Andy Pyez and Mookie Bets demoted down a
spot in the lineup and he went.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Over for it.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
So it turns out Mookie sucks whether he's betting second
or third in the Dodger lineup.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Not good. Do we have this Mookie post game? I
don't know if we do or not.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
We do, Okay, apparently we do, all right, So here's
Mookie Bets. This is the viral SoundBite. Postgame. Mooki was
asked about his new level of suckage in the World series.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Here's what he had to say.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
I don't want to speak on anybody else, but for
me personally, I've just been terrible.
Speaker 7 (14:03):
I've been terrible and there's no.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
I wish it was from lack of effort.
Speaker 7 (14:08):
I really do, but it's not.
Speaker 8 (14:09):
So.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Yeah, I don't have any I was cut off good editing.
He said, I don't have any answers. Who edited that?
Speaker 1 (14:18):
By the way, I mean, just leave the word answers
in there. It's not that hard, all right. Question, what is.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Your opinion of Mookie Bets taking responsibility with his I've
just been terrible quote for his lousy play in the
twenty twenty five World Series for the Dodgers. So my
reaction is, thank you very much, Mokie. The sky is
blue right to the you and I. The sky is
(14:44):
no kidding, Mokie. I mean, we've got TVs, we've got radios,
we've been watching, we've been listening. You're batting a buck thirty.
You don't get credit for self awareness when the numbers
are tattooed on the jumbo trunk. They're all up there
right they're batting it now, right now. Mookie Bets looks
(15:05):
like a guy walking into the deli and he's ordering
a sandwich. He says, I don't want the pastrami, simms.
How about a turkey. I don't need a turkey, Simms.
Let me get that number seven. What's the number seven?
That's the panic sandwich. Mookie's eating a panic sandwich, and
you don't need any clutch hits. Hold the clutch hits
on the panic sandwich. Can I get some extra whiffs?
Can I get some extra pop ups?
Speaker 1 (15:25):
I need that? Yeh, sure, why not? We'll give you
extra pop ups.
Speaker 2 (15:28):
It's the freaking world series pal, and you can't suck
like that. I mean you sucking at a time you
cannot suck. That's the definition of this now more evidence.
As my professor of the Great Dick Stockton taught me
years ago, stat's tell you what has happened, not what's
going to happen. If you just based this World Series
on reputation and the numbers on the back of the
(15:49):
baseball card, the Dodgers would have already won the World Series.
But unfortunately they have to play the games. And right
now what has happened all those MVPs and so called stars.
They're treated like the royals when they travel, are playing
like Little League be team guys. If I owned the Dodgers,
I would make these stiffs fly to Toronto on Spirit Airlines.
(16:10):
As punishment, I would make them fly Spirit Airlines. They'd
have to pay for their own luggage. That's what I
would do.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Now.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
The late great Tommy Lasorda, may he rest in peace.
And I was lucky enough to know Tommy. But Tommy
would say, the Dodgers right now have a lot of
Kurt Bovakua's in their lineups. It's one of the all
time great drops. If you're too young to know it.
It's on the YouTube and it was one of the
great rants, underrated rant by Thesorta, and he would say,
these guys couldn't hit water if they fell out a
(16:38):
frickin boat.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
The Dodgers are hitting.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
Two hundred, two hundred in the World Series two hundred.
I didn't realize the Blue listen. I took the Blue
Jays lightly. They're pitching.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I didn't know they were filled with all these cy
young winners.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Max Munsey buck fifty, Tommy Edmund, Tommy Tanks is tanking
the world hit a buck forty three, and then the
gold standard Mookie Bets buck thirty, buck thirty. Holy crap
on a cracker now, Jeff Van Gundy, I know it's
a basketball guy, but Van Gundy's famously said it's a
make or miss league. Well, Baseball two, you're whiffing early,
(17:16):
you're whiffing offen.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
The Blue Jays.
Speaker 2 (17:18):
What they ought to do is send a fleet of
limos to the hotel there at Toronto. Make sure Munsey
and Tommy Edmond and Will Smith and Mookie Bets, all
these guys get to the stadium in comfort, because right
now the Dodgers if you look in that clubhouse, it's
an art exhibit, and what kind of art is it
that would be the choke art exhibit? The choke artists
(17:39):
I got now, don't get me wrong. Okay, you knocket
me wrong. I appreciate Mookie Bets owning it. I just
don't need a confession at this moment. The series isn't over.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
I would like to get a couple of hits.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I would enjoy a couple of home runs that would
be pretty nice, or at least a Ribby single, how
about that. It's the world series. This is not therapy. Okay,
I'm not that kind of fan. I know there's a
lot of fanboys out there and told lickers that will
love that and say, oh, we love you, Mooki.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
It's okay, that's not me. That's not me.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Oya. Accountability is nice. I just happen to like production
a little bit better I do.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
I do.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
I like production, and you can apologize all you want. Unfortunately,
when you look at the box score, it does not
accept my bad bro.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
It does not accept that. All right.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Last word to the Toronto side of things and what
a performance was by trey Ya Savage of the Blue Jays.
The quote from the Blue Jays from Vladimir Guerrero, Junior Vlattie,
who got it done again. Here's the Toronto Star, Vladimir Grera,
who said, quote the job is not done yet. Close
(18:47):
quote said that through a translator. All right, question, what
is the vibe? What is the vibe around the Blue
Jays right now at this moment. So the vibe is
the schnazola. You can smell the championship bubbly, you can
smell it. The Dodgers are practically handing Toronto the World Series.
(19:09):
They are the beneficiary of the generosity, the act of
charity of the Dodgers. They've gift wrapped it. They've thrown
on a bow which looks pretty nice. It's a Dodger
blue bow. And the J's now they just got to
make sure they don't fumble. Don't fumble the gift, all right,
don't fumble it, don't trip at the post office, don't
(19:30):
break it, don't do that. And the fact that the
Dodgers have collectively gone in the witness protection program, and
this tray is savage doing things that the greatest of
the greats have done in the World Series. Getting a
lot of help from the anemic Dodger hitters. There guy's
been in Major League Baseball for about five minutes and
(19:51):
made the Big Bad Dodgers look like a slow pitch
Beer League softball team on the weekends there and search
slicing them up. No contest the last couple of games.
So what does all this mean for Toronto? It is
yours to lose. The Dodgers were the big bad bully.
(20:12):
They're no longer the big bad bully. Toronto's up three
to two. Home cooked poutin ahead, home cooked poutin ahead.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
But remember Vladimir Guerrero showed up wearing a maple.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Leafs jersey to I think it was the first game
in the World Series, remember correctly, and that'll come back
to haunt you if you blow these last two games.
You know the maple Leafs are in that town. They're
the definition of choke artists, and so just don't choke.
You've got Vladdie saying job's not done good, it's not
and it's been a long time since Joe Carter and
(20:45):
then you know, hit the ball to the moon and
the Mitch Williams and all that ninety three. So you
finished the job now, or you become another cautionary tale
in Canadian sports misery. And there's a long, long, big
board of that. So you can smell it right in
a champagne there. You can smell the champagne.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Can spell it's not open. One more win and Yama
Moto on the map. The problem with Yamamoto pitch great game.
The Dodgers, if they don't get their head out of it,
took us. They got this tight Tukas syndrome.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
It doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
So Dodgers are like zombies. But we've seen those zombie
apocalypse movies and we know how that can turn around
and be a fairly bad thing. So the Dodgers are
pretty much begging Toronto to end the World Series in
game six, and that's it. Just I would advise you
to not trip over the red carpet on your way
to the parade. And it's like they say in politics,
(21:40):
don't measure for the curtains yet you haven't won the election,
so just gotta wait for the election to end, the results.
Speaker 1 (21:45):

night it is as we hang out here, and I'm
told we almost had a uh almost had a night off.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
I did. I almost had a night off from the
Ben Mather Show.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
We came real close to just doing one segment and
then burn Baby Bird. So Lorena, would you like to
explain to the class here Lorena, we have a kitchen
if you visit an a tree and so few of
you guys have Robbie the Mariner, if a few guys
have been in here over these we we have, much
to the dismay of management, we let our friends come
hang out with us every once in.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
A while, as long as they're not scary.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
And the Leprechaun's been in so we have the Smurf kitchen,
and it's not much of a kitchen. Looks pretty nice.
There's not too much in there's a nice refrigerator, and
there's a sink, and there's a usual office stuff. There's
a coffee machine. I don't drink coffee. There's a little microwave.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
And and there's a for some reason, there's a dishwasher.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
And uh, anyway, Lorena, you were deciding you wanted to
hook some you wanted to cook something up.
Speaker 10 (25:55):
I believe is that the So I have a I
have a cheese steak sandwich that I haven't eaten yet,
and so I left it in the bag, you know,
like a Jimmy John sandwich.
Speaker 11 (26:04):
How it's wrapped in the paper bag.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Yeah, free smells. The smells are free.
Speaker 10 (26:09):
So anyways, I put the bag in the microwave.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
She just wanted to heat it up a little bit.
He thought, why not.
Speaker 10 (26:15):
Yeah, And I hear this little crackling sound and I'm like, okay,
I'm like, it's the microwave broken.
Speaker 11 (26:19):
So I like literally stepped back because I'm like, in
case it.
Speaker 10 (26:21):
Explodes, I'm just going to step back. And I went
and I stopped it.
Speaker 11 (26:25):
For a second.
Speaker 10 (26:25):
I was like, okay, I only got twenty seconds left.
It's fine, put it back in pop pop pop. And
then I see a flame through the microwave.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Oh my god, and.
Speaker 11 (26:33):
I'm like, oh no, I'm like, what do I do?
What do I do?
Speaker 10 (26:37):
So I try and pull like the bag out, and
then I realized there's more flames than I expected. So
I grabbed a cup of water and I threw a
little bit of water and that didn't do much. So
then I threw more water and now there's a pool
in the microwave.
Speaker 11 (26:48):
My sandwich apparently is okay?
Speaker 2 (26:50):
Though, Okay, now did fire did Fire Marshall Bill make
an appearance?
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Jim Carrey's Fire? That's a gated reference. I think gets that.
By the way, that was a great I think's stated though?
Is that too Is that too old? Is that? Is
that a bad reference? Okay?
Speaker 7 (27:04):
Well, did you know that there is a scene and
Liar Liar where he is in the background behind some
extras dressed up as Fire Marshall Bill.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
I did not know that. Look at that.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
That's a fun fact, right, that's a Cooper little fun fact,
Fire Marshall Bill.
Speaker 7 (27:22):
That's during that during the airport scene when he's when
he's on the stretcher.
Speaker 2 (27:26):
Okay, see, now everyone's gonna go watch the movie, Coop,
and you'll make a couple of bucks because they're gonna
watch the movie and then see where let me say,
you can spot fire Marshall Bill in the movie. So
he would have made an appearance to let me show
you something just like that. Right, But so the question
is a is the damage enough to destroy the said microwave?
Speaker 7 (27:47):
Okay, this is why it probably shouldn't have brought this.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
Okay, all right, all right, all right, all right, Yes,
so no one listens to our show the world.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Everyone listened just just between so we're not going to
tell anyone that the place was smell.
Speaker 11 (28:02):
It smells like marshmallows, like if you were roasting marshmallows.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Yeah, that's what kind of Now, now did you unplug it?
I assume you unplugged it. Yes, no, because it's still
I mean, we why don't you go unplug it? I no,
I'm not kidding me. Sometimes the names on top of
(28:26):
I understand, but I sometimes this stuff is kind of smolders.
Speaker 11 (28:29):
And then I would I will send you a picture
of it so you can know, but.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
I would like unplug it. And then I would like
put it out in the courtyard.
Speaker 11 (28:38):
Well not that sandwich outside.
Speaker 10 (28:40):
About that fine time someone burnt popcorn, Now that was
a real big deal.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
Okay, that one that Well, when I started, I want
you to know I when I started the Premiere Networks,
we had this guy, Craig Kitchen, who was like the
coolest boss.
Speaker 1 (28:53):
Everyone loved him, like the greatest guy, like a radio savant.
Craig Kitchen.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
I mean just I think he's Jim Rome's agent now,
but he be came an agent, but he was running
the company and he could not have been a cooler guy.
He had one rule when I started at the Premier
Netway and this was like big time, you know I started.
These all big radio stars worked at Premiere Networks. They
still do, but it was like it was a huge deal.
And the one rule was you're not allowed to make
popcorn at work because he hated to smell the burn popcorn,
(29:18):
and so that was it.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
That was the only rule.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
You could do pretty much anything else you wanted, but
you could not cook popcorn at work. No salmon, I
don't know about salmon.
Speaker 11 (29:27):
I just remember the pops.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Well, salmon should not go in the microwave. So if
you put the salmon, that's like a stupid test. If
you put sam in the microwave, that's bad job by you.
Bill says, I live in Hollywood, and I says, I
can he can smell the fire.
Speaker 11 (29:42):
Over in Bring me a sandwich?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Who's your Bill.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Says he can smell the burn microwave over the hill there.
So yeah, all right, anyway, okay, well, good luck on me.
I would unplug it.
Speaker 11 (29:53):
I was just meet but you know you, I'll send
you a picture in our all.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Right, send me a photo. Okay, that's great.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
Andy in Lino lakes rights and he says another A
plus Malay monologue. A lot of people don't want to
hear the truth. But that's what you do, man, You
spew the truth.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
That's right. I vomit the truth is what I do.
My name is Ben Mahler, and I.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Puke up the truth on a nightly basis. So the
Dodgers are cooked. According to Andy, I saw some feathers
flying around. They may have a game left in them,
but they're cooked.
Speaker 11 (30:25):
There you go, extra crispy, please.
Speaker 2 (30:30):
Ahead of the news, Rights and says, why is Mary
Hart leaving to beat the traffic? At eight pm? She's
not leaving to beat the traffic. She's leaving to beat
the traffic at Dodger stad Plus didn't.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
Her I think it was her?
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Guy Right got hit with a foul ball during the
game outs Yeah, yeah, he's sitting front row there and
clunk a reek in Minnesota rights and says, I love you, Ben.
But talking about the Dodgers as if they were the
twenty seven Yankees, it is ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
They are more like the eighty seven Twins.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
It's not over, but our Doyers need to put a
bat on the ball and fast.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Well.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Baseball media has been on, you know, have got their
knee pads on. They've been telling me that a Tani
is Babe Ruth. So if Atani's babe Babe Ruth was
on the twenty seven Yankees, all right, check that box.
Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman are Hall of famers. There
there go down the big board, a bunch of Hall
of famers. Scrooge right since says it's not just a
(31:31):
lack of production, it's also a lack of not giving
a crap. The Dodgers looked dead after the Game three
and never revived. I can see Yamamoto carrying the team
in game six. However, I don't see the Dodgers winning
a Game seven in Toronto, especially with that bullpen.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
That is Scrooge. He's in the younger demo. Scrooge is
in the younger demo there, so you gotta factor that in.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
And the post we have about posted by the way,
if you missed it, you can see the unofficial show
rundown of things that we will be talking about throughout
the overnight.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
Follow me on X at Ben Mahler. That's at Ben Mallard.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Normally, when someone dies, there will be some kind of gathering,
whether it's a funeral or just a party to celebrate
a life.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Celebration of life, right, it's important thing, closure on someone's life.
Normally that you only get one.
Speaker 2 (32:24):
Well, Clayton Kershaw, how about is he getting We had
the digging up of the mound after his.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
Final start, one of the more embarrassing moments in Dodger history.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
We had.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Now after this game Game five, the Kershaw Klan was
wandering around the field and glowing stories, very dramatic stories.
Clayton Kershaw lingered on the field at Dodger Stadium, soaking
in the sights and the sounds of the stadium he's
called home his entire career, and he shared an embrace
(33:01):
with his wife.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Oh my god, do we have any violin music for this?
Holy crap.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
He's a baseball He's a worst possison pitcher baseball history.
He's cost the Dodgers multiple World Series plays. Leave.
Speaker 8 (33:15):
Yeah, here's Clayton Kershaw, after an eighteen year career, played
his final game at Dodger Stadium, and he lingered like
a plague. He and his four children scampered about playing
catch father and son. There was the embrace with his wife,
(33:36):
who wore his jersey expecting another little Kershaw on the way,
as he dramatically kissed her forehead in an act of love,
and then went out to the mound one last time
to vomit all over the mound, just like almost every
playoff start he made as a Dodger, to remind Dodger
(33:57):
Stadium that he's the worst posis in at your of
all time.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
There you go, Hey, he got that. He got that
one out the other day. Yes, that's right. Yes, the
greatest moment of Kershaw one out in a game the
other night. Yes, that is it. That's the gold standard.
Oh my god, all right, I know.
Speaker 5 (34:21):
What are you doing?
Speaker 1 (34:22):
You're beaner, You're Beaner schmuck. Understand again. I do love
that Blake.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
I started the show with this because I thought it
was so good. Blake snell with I don't make excuses,
and then made an excuse, which is to me just
just absolutely freaking great.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
You know, I don't make excuses, but here's here's an excuse.
Oh god, is this fun? I you know, nice like this?
Speaker 2 (34:47):
You know, I obviously I wanted the Dodgers to win,
but this is as Speccoli Spaccoli was so excited in
Chapel Hill.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
He sent me an email just going through my email here,
he sent me an email. Oh he's so excited.
Speaker 2 (34:56):
You know.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
The better story isn't losing locker room and so he's
like he's all fired up. He's fired up because.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
He thought the I guess he thought the Dodgers losing
would make for great greater talk radio.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
What he what he thought?
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Edgar says, Man, the older you get, the more bitter
you're getting our ratings down. No, we're actually doing better
than we've ever done. I don't think I'm bitter at all.
I think you're just used to soft ass talk show
host is what you're used to.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
You want those daytime guys. Everything shouldna be fine. The
Dodger's okay, I'm in a massage, O don like.
Speaker 2 (35:30):
I'm sure David Basset probably gave a shoulder rub and
he gave that I think shoulder rub to Snell. And
Coop was telling me that Mookie Betts got the manning
and the petty from bass and he made a sandwich
for Max Muncy.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
So there's there's that, all right.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
It is the Bean Mallor Show as we work our
way through the overnight hours.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
Time now though for the who am I game? Who
am I giving?
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Now? This is the part of the show where I
pretend to be somebody else and you you have to
listen and see if you can figure out who I am.
So Toronto's Treyya Savage struck out all nine batters and
the Dodgers starting lineup. Every one of those stiffs struck
