friend Mike Harmon.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Well, tonight, that's certainly been the case.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Dodgers lead the Mets right now, go to the ninth inning,
seven to nothing, showy Otani's three run homer into the
upper deck and city field, putting an exclamation point on
Game three of the NLCS.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
So the Dodgers, We'll go to the ninth bottom.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
The ninth inning, at least up seven to nothing and
likely taking a two games to.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
One lead, likely in the NLCS.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
Likely, Well, the game's still going on, going, game is
still going on.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
It's still happening.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
If we Frostburg, if we score eight in the ninth
inning to win, well, I don't know, but I'm allowed
to do something really really bad to you I'm allowed
to do something really real, Like I'm allowed to drive
your car.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Into the river.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
How about you get a run first?
Speaker 3 (01:21):
The long road.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Begins with that first wee set eight in the ninth,
I can drive your car into the red I'll just
put them I'll put one of those cinder blocks on
the gas pedal and just watch it go into the river.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Well, you know what happens when you mess with me.
You got to go through j Cole.

A man who may or may not be watching the
Mets and the Dodgers right now.

It is Jason Cole. What's happening, buddy.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
I'm just enjoying the music, baby, just I'm just I'm
just going with it, just loving it. But I have
a couple of things I wanted to say. I won't
quote Kiky Hernandez, but I will say Kiki, and I
will say show Hey, and finally I will say feler heeler, beeler, heeler, heeler.
Speaker 6 (02:31):
Fry, fry, fry, Heeler, Feeler, Buler Doler.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Love you guys. Celebrate you guys, celebrate Game three.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Yeah, you're like when I watched the Brewers in the
series with the Mets, did I get a one two
three fourth.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Sitting and go up?
Speaker 1 (02:57):
They just want the pennant, don't You? Guys are celebrating
the game World Series.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
I have got I got one question for you, whiny boy. Okay,
Which which hurts worse? The fact that you just got
road graded by the Dodger tonight or the fact that
your your quarterback rogue grade in one of his teammates
this week.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Oh let's say, wait a minute, he wrote, graded Mike Williams,
but we got Davante Adams.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
That's a win.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
That's oh yeah, I think that's I'm sure. I'm sure
that that that that locker rooms really feeling the quarterback
right now? He's really yeah. Oh no, he had nothing.
He had nothing to do with Soli getting fired. No,
not a word. No. The owner called me the night before,
but he didn't say anything to me about whether Solig
is fired. And now I throw Mike Williams, you know,
(03:50):
under the bus, because I know I'm getting DeVonta Adams
that's a hell of a teammate right now. That's great.
And by the way, how about burst that that you
know that really pushed that Woody Johnson did how'd that go?
Speaker 1 (04:04):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (04:04):
And finally, Greg Berlin, how's that? How's that going? You're
liking that Greg zerline? How many games has he cost you? Iretic?
Speaker 3 (04:12):
Stop? Stop he's already dead. You feel good now?
Speaker 4 (04:17):
I mean, if you feel good, get him with the
mony home run real quick.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
I know it's is the best ten minutes of your week.
You feel good.
Speaker 5 (04:26):
It's glorious. It's glorious. You know what. It's a very
good week.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Oh good, Okay, right good, I'm glad. You know what.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
You know, it's Game three. This is not game it's
not Game six that you not win to go to.
But yeah, celebrate Game three like the series is over.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Okay, that's cool. That's all good, man, it's all good.
Speaker 5 (04:42):
Hey, well I did I did text my friend who's
a Cowboys fan that you know, I you know, I
took herd. He should take heart in the fact that
the Dodgers scored as much as the Cowboys, you know,
on Sunday.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
I think the Nets defense tonight has been as bad
as the cow Boys on Sunday.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
So there's that too, Shat Kular. I'll say this, as
bad as your day is right now today, as bad
as this week has been with the Jets, you know
on Monday, the whole all of that. You know, at
least you're not Jerry Jones. No, at least at least
(05:24):
you're not trying to at least you're not trying to
get a couple of radio guys fired during the middle
of the week.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Well, that's my whole thing.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
All I gotta do is take a tape of this
segment or whatever you say the last last few times
you've been on, send it to Jerry Jones. He'll have
you fired or removed as a Hall of Fame voter.
Speaker 5 (05:40):
Well, since I voted him, man, I think he owes me.
That's right.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
He's trying to get cowboys. You have.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
We have the evidence of you saying I'm getting all
the cowboys out of the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 5 (05:55):
Oh no, I never said Jerry, I said all the
other players. Yes, I kind of guess absolutely, But Jerry
I actually poke up for I have to own Jerry
because I spoke up in his on his behalf. So
I did say that, Yes, so I own that one.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Yeah, yeah, So what did you make of the whole
thing with Jerry chose You're going to a lunatic on
the radio host in Dallas.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
It's just the you know, angry old man embarrassed. I
mean like they're like, this is this is a kin
to Tom Landry going one in fifteen, because at least
with Tom Landry when they went one in fifteen, you
knew that was a bad thing. You know, they had
they had cratered, the roster was old. You know, Danny
(06:43):
White was shot, the whole you know everything about when
they went one and fifteen and everything went off the rails.
And then Jerry took over and they brought in Jimmy.
That's the whole thing. You knew that was coming. Jerry
made a promise like you can't escape the two magic words,
the five little letters of all in. You just cannot
(07:07):
escape that. Ever to say that you're all in and
then you put this product on the field. And I
know they have some excuses in defensive lineman out and michaelpartment,
but this is just horrendous. I mean it's really, really
truly horrendous because as bad as the defense has been.
The offense has stunk too, It's just that the defense
is covering up for how bad the offense is.
Speaker 7 (07:30):
That certainly has helped. You know, we got Smith getting
his guy in trade. Meanwhile, Buffalo makes the move to
bring in Amari Cooper, while Stefanski still has to say
Deshaun Watson is our guy. It is really an interesting
week in the national football.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
It feels so bad for Stefanski, like he just you know,
like every day, do you just sit there and go
how do I say this? Like do you rehearse the
speech where you say to the owner, look, this has
got to stop. I've got to take a stand for
my team. Or do you just continue swallow your pride
and wait for the owner to come around? Like do
(08:10):
you just which way do you go? Do you go
in and say, look, let me out of this, because
if you're not going to bench him or not going
to allow me to bench him, just let me go
and go get a job somewhere else. Do you do that?
Or do you or do you just you know, swallow
your pride? What do you what do you do? If
(08:30):
you're Stefanski at this point in time, he is totally
and completely trapped, and I know that by default he's
made the decision to swallow his pride to take this,
but man, it's I just I feel so bad for
him because I don't, Man, I don't know what's gonna
work with Deshaun Watson. I mean, I don't know if
he's done or not. But this is just every bad
(08:53):
thing that you can do to yourself, to you know,
to undermine your career, you know, starting with everything that
he did in Houston and all the trouble they got
into in Houston, and then doing the deal with the
Devil where you took the money to go to a
place that you never wanted to play for. You never
wanted to be in Cleveland. You're never going to be
(09:13):
happy there. You wanted to go to Carolina, you wanted
to go to Atlanta, you wanted to be at one
of those two places. But you took the deal with
the Devil and you took all the money, and now
you're completely and totally miserable in the way that you're
playing because you're putting like zero effort into this.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Jason Cole with Us The Jason smithser with Mike Carmon
Live from the TIREQ dot Com Studios.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
You know, I come at it from this. Ja Cole
was like, Okay, I get the hole.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
They're stuck. He's got the contract. They can't get out
of it. Okay, they can pay they don't have to
play him. I mean, I don't know if I think
people understand it. Okay, yeah, you have to pay him,
you do all this, I get. You don't have to
play him. You have another guy on the team that
might actually be a little bit better. You could go
to Jamis wi Instant. You still with all this, still
been able to fit in a backup quarterback that's been
(10:04):
dynamic in the past. That's what I just can't get
past is that, yes, you have to pay him, but
he doesn't have to be on the field.
Speaker 5 (10:11):
Tell that to the owner who guaranteed all the money.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
That's it.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
That's so heroic that you don't have to do this.
You don't. You don't. I mean, like it's so it
sounded so good coming out of your mouth that way.
Now you have to walk to the owner's office and say, yeah,
the guy you promised two hundred over two hundred million
dollars only guaranteed and gave up a truckload of picks.
I'm mentioning that guy. How do you feel? How do
(10:39):
you feel Jimmy has one? Yeah, I mean Jimmy Hasoom's
already been made to look like a fool for his
entire time as an owner of the Cleveland brown including
the famous story that Seth Wickersham did about you know,
the I can't even get into her. I'll get banned
from your program permanently if I to discuss that one.
(11:01):
But just say it's two letters that rhyme and you know,
like just not good. Right. But everything that they've done
with the Browns since they took over this team has
just been a mess. And this is the coup de gras.
So you're gonna be the one who marches in there
(11:22):
and says I'm benching Deshaun Watson to just further cement
the biggest embarrassment of what has been an atrocious career
as an owner of a team. That's what you're gonna do.
Speaker 7 (11:37):
Yeah, I just like the fact that you have to
say he's the best chance we have to win.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Meanwhile, you trade away.
Speaker 7 (11:42):
Your best and your wide receiver to Buffalo.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
What's he do in that offense?
Speaker 7 (11:48):
How quickly does it take to get acclimated with Brady
and Josh Allen over there.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
I think that they'll you know, they'll give him five
or some patterns the first you know, the first week,
and then I'll get as way up to ten or twelve.
I mean, this is a veteran guy who's been around.
He'll be okay in this for what they need. They
just need a guy that's dependable, and he's still a
really really good route runner. He's a terrific route runner.
(12:18):
He's not as fast as he once was, but he
can run routes. His hands are good, so he'll fit
in for what they need and that takes a little
pressure off of key On Coleman. Yeah, they were expecting
that Dalton Kincaid was going to come a lot, a
lot further, a lot faster and sort of take up
a lot of these and that just hasn't happened the
way they expected. And they've had a lean on the
(12:39):
receivers too much. But you know, Cooper will be fine
in that.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
He's on Twitter at Jason Cole sixty two, that is,
at Jason.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
Cole's Your Story yet again.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
Nothing he ate nothing, It's okay.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Hey, listen, I wonder you know Look, we didn't get
to do this, but I'm sure you're going to change
from getting the Cowboys out of the Hall of Fame
to keeping Chris Berman out of the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
He's made the court.
Speaker 5 (13:06):
What he going on? Many Buddy Broadcaster Later.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
On The Jason Smith Show with Mike Garvin Live the
TIREC dot Com Studios.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
I mean, I thought he was going to bring it up,
but he got He got caught up with the Mets
and the Dodgers. It happens, and that's funny.
Speaker 4 (13:28):
He's still waiting for Max Munsey's ball to land.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Max Munsey the last it was last nine at bats,
three home runs, a single, and four walks.
Speaker 4 (13:35):
He's literally saying, like that.
Speaker 7 (13:38):
Man, I'm telling my kids, that's Babe, Ruth and Hernandez.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Your leaders. Hernandez just strikes out with runners at first
and third. So the Mets will come to bat in
the bottom of the ninth inning in front of friends
and family here at City Field as the Dodgers leader.
Ate nothing about to take a two games to one
lead in the NLCS. We'll have more on this game
and something I really want to see. I really want
to see from the best quarterback we've ever seen. It's

Speaker 8 (15:11):
Hernandez hits it in the air left field. Nimo back
on the warning track. He's at the wall.
Speaker 3 (15:16):
This ball is good.
Speaker 9 (15:19):
Kick k Hernandez owns October Hey e two run blasts
and the Dodgers double their lead. It's now fod to nothing.
Speaker 8 (15:28):
In the sixth the pitch is hit high in the
air right field, hooking toward the pall, and this ball.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Is fair and gone.
Speaker 9 (15:38):
Show Hey Old Tony unloads a three run home run.
Here on the top of the eighth.
Speaker 8 (15:44):
Inning, Monsey gets into a ball high in the air
right field. He drops the bat Max Munsey, max power
into the second deck. There was no doubt off the
bat that Max Mounsey was leaving the yard his third
home run of the postseason.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Another one, another one, another one. Boy.
Speaker 1 (16:08):
I asked for a SoundBite from DeVante Adams and it's Oh,
I don't know if we have it. I got to
search through the thing for it. Oh no, no, but
the dodge of three home runs.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
We turned those craps right around in like eight seconds. Oh,
here you go, we got it. Yeah, we got everything going.
Speaker 7 (16:24):
On those fast. Surely there was a microphone on the bat.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
We get it fast. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
No, Hey, Rodgers just retired. Can we get some sound eating?
But hey, can we get that?
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Oh? I gotta look and see. I don't know if
we have it. I got to look through. Oh with
the Dodger at a home No, let's get that going.
Let's get that right now. Let's get that right out
there wins only Uh, Dodgers Radio network on the call.
Uh Fox also as well.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
The game is over mercifully for the Mets, and the
Dodgers would like to just keep playing.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
They shut the Mets out eight to nothing to take
a two games to one lead in the NLCS. And
and look, there's a lot to say about this game,
but I think a lot of it will fall into
the first thing I will say.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
The umbrella is, Look, this night was terrible. It's just awful.
It went for you. You never regained off. Yeah, but
you know, look, some nights are not your night.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
And very early on you can tell, Okay, maybe it's
not the Mets night. They have three misplays in the
top of the second inning and the and the Dodgers
score two runs, they leave two on and then they
leave the bases loaded. Lindor strikes out with the bases
loaded in the third inning. Okay, maybe it's not our night.
And then a two run homer by Keith a Hernandez, Okay,
maybe it's really not our night. And then he got
(17:40):
Otanian months he going to the upper deck walker Buehler
gets out of the game without giving up a run.
It's his best outing in months, and he's able to
go four innings. Sometimes it's just not your night. And
do you know what tonight? Tonight was not the Mets night.
It was all the Dodgers night. And okay, well, what
can you do? You know, I get it be that
mad about the errors early in the game, because look
(18:01):
how the game finished, right, the Mets had four hits.
It's just tonight was not the Mets night and it
was the Dodgers night.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
And it's that simple sometimes.
Speaker 7 (18:08):
But like everything, you never know how it flows. So yeah,
it's it's easier to digest it when you watch it
get away and with a base open Sho hey, o Tani,
everybody flashing the same stats. You know, he's hitless when
there's nobody on, but otherwise he's it's the twenty seven
(18:29):
Yankees all wrapped up into one guy and lo and behold,
there you go. But yeah, Sevarino, he made some pitches
and didn't help himself in his fielding.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
Obviously.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
The play that stands out was the little dribbler and Alvarez,
who's lost at the plate, throws it down to second,
creating chaos and Walker Bueller to your point, season high
in terms of swings and misses. Right, he had his stuff,
and then a couple of times gave him pitches to
hit and they were frozen because they'd been too busy
(19:01):
chasing outside the zone to come back and get it.
Speaker 3 (19:05):
So he got through four innings.
Speaker 7 (19:06):
But you know, watching it as we were getting ready
for the show, Jason, I mean, you would have thought
he was working into the eighth with the the level
of exuberance over the performance because we hadn't seen it
from him. So the fact that he got to the
fourth and there was still a big zero flash it
up there was was you know, shock in awe, here
we are, uh. And then he gets Alvarez like, all right,
(19:28):
that's it. That's the last batter, I'm out of here,
and and you move on from there. So but it's
one loss, it's best of seven. Still got two more
at home to try to rally. Unfortunately, now you face
the two starting pitchers that were actually pretty good for
the Dodgers the last few.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Times out look, and that's why I said tonight was
was such a must win for the Mets. It's such
a must win because coming into the coming into this game,
you have the Dodgers and their worst starting pitcher that
they're gonna throw. Obviously, the bullpens are different. Their worst
starting pitcher who has been terrible. Walker Buehler has been awful.
Last game, he gave up six runs. He's been terrible.
(20:05):
This is one hundred and eighty degrees from how I
thought the game was gonna go. I thought the Mets
are gonna get on him early. They were going to
score and put the pressure on the Dodgers, who are
going to come back with their two best starters in
Game four, in Game five, one hundred ninty degrees how
I thought the game was going to go, and instead
they let Bueller off that It's not like Bueller pitched
an incredible game. No, he was in and out of trouble.
(20:26):
The Mets left five runners on base in the first
three innings, including the bases loaded. They left two to
one in the second inning, and he was able to escape.
They'd alternately have good at bats and bad at batcher.
They would wave it as sweeper and waving his curve
that he couldn't throw for a strike, didn't have to
throw for a strike because the Mets couldn't do anything.
So it was it was. It was a game where again,
(20:46):
this is why it was such a must win game,
because now the Dodgers are saying, this is how he wanted.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
We don't want to go back to La.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
We want to end this thing in the next two
because when you get to Game six, suddenly, well that's
a bullpen game and who knows, and Game seven, who
knows who's available at that point again, and then you're
talking about Walker Bueller again. Like if I'm the Dodgers,
I'm thinking, we're not happy right now. We want to
end this series next two and they can because they
have their two best pictures going. If the Mets were
chasing Walker Buehler tonight they're gonna chase Yamamoto all night tomorrow.
(21:17):
And then oh by the way, Jack Flaherty coming off
the game of his life for Game five, Like the
Dodgers have everything where they want it right now. Tonight
this was more than just one win for la This
was a we now have this series in control because
of what we're throwing out there. Now, the pressure is
on to get it done the next two night. Sure,
once you get to Game six, even though it's in
(21:37):
Los Angeles, it's a different thing. But they really have
such big control of this series right now. I'm telling
you the Mets can't keep thinking, oh, we got miracles,
we still got not we're in room one of miracles.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
We just have another room we're gonna get into.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Like are you do an escape room and you get
out of the first room, but you gotta got out
of the second room to win. It's like, oh, we're
in the we still got miracles in the first escape room.
We got to get into that second room for more
miracles that we have to do. Eventually that miracle room
comes empty or you run out of time and they go,
thank you, you can exit the.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
Door right now.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
We'll tell you how you didn't get out of that
second escape room. But tonight was such a huge w
for the Dodgers, not not and look winning it eight nothing. Yeah,
it looks great, it looks but all they had.
Speaker 3 (22:17):
To do was come out of this with a win.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Doesn't matter if it was four to three or one nothing,
because now they have control of this series. And now
the Mets are desperate because yes, of course tomorrow is
a must win because you don't want to go, but really,
the you're talking about the next two games probably must wins,
and and facing the two best Dodgers pitchers, this was
as perfect a night for the Dodgers as they could
have hoped for.
Speaker 3 (22:38):
Smell perfect night. It's a perfect night. Not that nice
to night.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
They stunk tonight. No, I thought it smells that the
Mets s dunk tonight. The Dodgers were terrific and they
had This is as as great a script as they
could have said. We're gonna do this ourselves, and we're
gonna draw up exactly how this game is gonna go.
This is how you would have done it. Four shot
outings for Walker Bueller, they score eight runs. O'tan hits
a home run, they hit up and down the line
(23:02):
up there, full of confidence going and this was a
perfect day and a perfect night for the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
I can't say anything else about it. It's a perfect
night for them.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
And now they are completely in control of the series
because it's a lot for the Mets to say, climb
those mountains the next two nights with Yamamoto and then Flaherty.
Speaker 7 (23:17):
Yeah, I'd love to go through and you know, search
the databases to find a guy that goes four innings,
throws ninety pitches, only fifty one for strikes, and walks
out with zero runs allowed. I can't imagine that's a
very long list. Not many may got Buller here and
look for the Dodgers. Is key is that you were
able to get a couple of your your high end
(23:41):
relief pitchers came in to move the game along, but
they weren't stressful stressful innings. Right, You're able to go
on a minimum number of pitches, which means if you
need to break glass in case of emergency, they're back
at it tomorrow. I mean, Brazier pitch had through twenty pitches.
Kopek got through his inning with twelve trining comes in
(24:05):
eleven pitches, ten of them for strikes. And then Darius Casparis,
I mean Casparius came in for two innings.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
He had thirty one pitches. He did his job.
Speaker 7 (24:14):
I don't know that we see him again anytime soon,
but he did the job to finish this thing off.
And you know, just those early opportunities, right, eight left
on base for the Mets, a couple of bat at
bats and waving and giving Walker Buehler a lot more
leverage to work with, because it really as the eight nothing,
(24:37):
you know, where as we push away from it in
the moment, how much were we going back and forth
or going back and forth with friends and colleagues about
how horrible the umpiring was early in terms of trying
to set a zone. But in the end it did matter.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
No.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
Like I said, I can't even mad at the misplays
the Mets had because there were just so many things tonight.
I just as the the game went on, they looked
like they once they When Lindor struck out.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
With the bases loaded, like that was it?
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Like I felt that that was the moment where hey,
we're getting back in this game, We're tying the game
of two to two, or who knows whatever's gonna happen.
But I felt like after that moment, like the fight
just left the Mets, just like it just like leaked
right out of them, like in a movie when it
says stay with me, come on, man, stay with me,
Stay with me. Oh, tell my wife, tell my no,
you stay with me, and they just watch it. The
(25:28):
light go out of their eyes and they just move
their head to the side and go like that light
and the fans left the stadium. That was That's what
I was watching Lindor strike out. Okay, that was the
moment right there. That's where we're getting back in it.
And the Dodgers just had to just had the rest
of it all the way through.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
I mean, really it was.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
It's it's a perfect night for the Dodgers's It's more
than just one win. It's winning again the first three games.
The way the pitching lined up for the Dodgers, You're saying, okay,
so you have your race going in game one bullpen
game is dicey, and then wow, man, Bueler, he's been
all full.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Man, you got if you get out of there.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Down to one Okay, But I mean this is about
as good as it can get you're up to one
and you're going to your two best pictures now the
next two nights like this is this is a herculean
task for the Mets the next couple of nights.
Speaker 5 (26:14):
Now.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
One of my favorite memes that I like to use
every once in a while when I can drop a
Northwestern thing in uh, defensive backs coach Jerry brown locker
room where he does this dance and you just got
everybody hyping him up. That that's that's kind of kind
of where you're at around Dave Roberts tonight. The way
this game worked out for the Dodgers, all the questions,
(26:35):
all the concerns about everything with Walker Bueller didn't matter.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
How about how confident was he in his in game interview. Right,
Bueller's in this in the fourth inning and the bottom
of the order is coming up, right, and so the
Dodgers have a reliever warming up in the bullpen. They
had a copeck in the bullpen, yep, and like, okay, hey,
let's go down and find out what's going on. And
what do you think that Dave Roberts are gonna say? Right,
Ken Rosenthal says, Hey, your thoughts on Walker Bueller's so far.
(27:00):
What do you think Roberts is gonna say, Hey, he's
pitching really well, he's battling, he's getting out of trouble. Uh,
you know, he's given us a great effort so far tonight,
and this is this is really what we wanted. And
instead he says, yeah, you know, he's been a bulldog,
he's been battling. But uh, you're you're gonna see Kopek
coming in to face Lindor and these are his last
three batters. You're like, wow, I've never seen it. That's
(27:22):
why I love these in game interviews. You actually get stuff.
This is not like a decideline going hey, coach, you're
down twenty one nothing, what do you gotta do? Well,
we gotta tackle better, we gottah, we gotta get off
the offense. We gonna do or you know when sometimes
the sideline reporters make them up. But like that was
This is why I like these interviews, Like guys just
say stuff, yeah, yeah, no, this is it.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
This is last three batters. Kope's coming into face Lindor.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Oh all right, then I guess I guess that's what's
gonna happen. Even though we probably could have figured that out. Hey,
third time through the order, how many pitches people are
gonna have? It's still a close game at that point,
but just yeah, that's what we're doing. Kopek's coming in.
I say, what are you doing after that? And what
kind of what kind of pitches is up Tani looking for?
Like you, what do you happen in the post game
up buffet? Well, Otani watched fastballs down and in Uh,
(28:04):
we're looking at ham sandwiches and maybe some hot chocolate,
you know, a little chilli here right now, and then uh,
you know, probably Copek and then trying it and then
depending how it goes. But that's what's what I'm looking
at right now.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Was never seen it in game interview like that. This
is what we're gonna do.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
We're gonna we're gonna bring in Kopek, he's gonna face
Lindor there we go there.
Speaker 7 (28:23):
Well, it's better than during the Padres series when they
h you know, when Ken was banned, uh and had
to go interview Dave Roberts after they'd just give it
up six runs and he just kind of stared at likely,
all right, this is not sense.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
What are we doing here?
Speaker 1 (28:40):
Exit out about of Fresca exit swollen down The Jason
Smiths Show with Mike Carmon live from the tirec dot
Com studios.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
It was the Dodgers' night, it was not the Mets night.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
That's kind of how it goes, uh right, now, let's
find out what's trending in the wide world of sports.
From a man who still can't find the Padres game anywhere,
so we settled on venom. There will be carnage.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
It's Brian f from the Update studio.
Speaker 10 (29:02):
Coming from somebody who actually wanted to root on the Mets.
My wife grew up a Mets fan, Jason. She went
to Syracuse. She went to Syracuse. Obviously there's that connection.
So I've adopted the Mets as my team now as
a former or at least for the postseason thereafter. Padres fan,
are you gonna accept me for who I am? Can
I jump on the bandwagon? Albeit it might not last
(29:23):
very long?
Speaker 1 (29:25):
If you want to come on shore, I okay, I
accepts because I'm because.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
I'm I will I will allow you on'y.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
You Smith watch the entry fee like sandwiches and ice cream.
Speaker 4 (29:37):
Like like ham sandwiches and stuff.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
Well, I don't know. If I.
Speaker 7 (29:43):
Need some prime rip or something on that, that's what
I want.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Forget about just Ham sandwiches. I want this.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Jason's Palett doesn't know the difference. Jeez.
Speaker 10 (29:55):
Hey, as far as that NLCS game show, he Tani
went Ham.
Speaker 8 (30:00):
The pitch is hit high in the ear right field,
hooking toward the poll and this ball.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Is fair and gone. Show.
Speaker 9 (30:09):
Hey, old Tani unloads a three run home run here
on the top of the eighth inning.
Speaker 10 (30:15):
That would be Dodgers Radio Network. The final score of
this one eight to nothing Dodgers against the Mets.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
Yeah, did you guys see this stat cast has it
at about eight hundred and fourteen feet?
Speaker 10 (30:28):
Holy cow, you're using the metric system now, Frostburg? Ooh
ooh wow yours?
Speaker 4 (30:38):
Yeah? Anyway?
Speaker 10 (30:39):
Yeah, yes, Tom, you are on. By the way, this
is an interesting stat. Guy Otani is seven for nine
when he has at least a man on base this postseason,
when when nobody's on base he is zero for twenty two.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (30:54):
Throw that one at Frostburg, who is wearing his Dodger
foam fingers right now.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Maximums on should go back to finding the Padre game
on TV. I will, I'll go back.
Speaker 8 (31:05):
He's gonna be.
Speaker 4 (31:06):
Very sore tomorrow and trying to find that channel that
it's on ESPN Classic.
Speaker 10 (31:09):
Yeah, there's a game or two on ESPN Classic.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
Thank you very much.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
Hey.
Speaker 10 (31:14):
Lastly, the WNBA Finals Game three, Sabrina.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Just get swept by the Yankees in ninety six. It
was awesome.
Speaker 10 (31:22):
Well yeah, yeah, ninety eight. But by the way, there
was a very controversial call there. I think it was
Tino Martinez was at the dish and he took a
ball that should have been a striker. Than the next
pitch he hit a home run. Totally changed the course
the momentum of that series. If that would have been
a strike. I think the Padres would have beaten them.
The Yankees.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
Four, I know, but you never lost in four, you
never know. Hey, yeah, that is true.
Speaker 10 (31:48):
We got a Game four coming up, by the way
in the WNBA Finals, but Game three going to the
Liberty over the Links and that was eighty to seventy seven.
Sabrina Ayunescu hit the game winner from twenty eight beat
We've got two NHL regular season games still up and
running of the four on the slate. We'll just touch
on those two. End of the second period, Avalanche trailing
(32:09):
the Bruins four to two, and the Utah Hockey Club
is all tied up at two with the Ducks. They
are late in the second period, and one more is
they're working back to Jason Smith and Mike Carmon. The
Maple Leafs acts the Kings six to two. That is
a final score. The Kings did not score anything until
(32:29):
the third period as they got absolutely bamboozled, just like
the Mets did tonight. Speaking of the Mets, here's their
number one fan. He's wearing a Grimace jersey or wearing
the costume. It's Jason Smith along with Mike Carmen.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
Okay? Uh? And I said, how do I say? Oh? Okay?
Well she was.
Speaker 1 (34:49):
She got famous Viraly for doing something and the Mets
had her throw out the first ball.
Speaker 3 (34:55):
Something yeah, yeah, yeah, blue blue past. Your daughter's smarter
than that.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
I did not let it go it I blew right pasts,
I said, But the Mets had her throw out the
first ball in a game this summer, and their records
since she's done it has been incredible. That's probably why
people are talking about her today. Wow, here we go.
That's an answer. Who wants I's good, let's go. She
looked that up immediately after. Who wants ice cream? You
(35:23):
want a pony for Christmas? What do you want a pony?
We I have some unbelievably fun news for us. We're
gonna get to play the Magic Johnson Twitter Games.
Speaker 7 (35:35):
Who Is it all about former u c l A
great Lonzo Ball making his return to the court.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Maybe maybe it's about the Mets and the Dodgers. But
we're gonna to play the Magic Johnson Twitter game next
hour on the show.
Speaker 3 (35:49):
Let go get ready. But well we're welcome back, you
know we do. The NBA season is getting ready to
begin next week. It's gonna be fun.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
But but I want to say this now because here's
me looking out for the guy. Uh And maybe is
a way to say thank you to the Raiders for
trading DeVante Adams to the Jets.
Speaker 3 (36:05):
So Tom Brady has been approved by the NFL.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
He can now be involved with the Raiders as their owner,
and his playing career is now officially over.
Speaker 3 (36:15):
Oh by the way, because that's what happens. Wrote a
nice letter to the Raiders.
Speaker 1 (36:19):
Nation, saying, Hey, happy to be here, can't wait to
get started, all this great stuff. I think it only
fair and and and and then I'm and I don't
think I'm alone in this. I think it only fair
that Brady has a press conference and admits to the
Raiders fans it was a fumble. Wow, because it was
because it was a fumble. He admits that it was
(36:39):
a fumble because he asked to, because it was a fumble,
and he needs to say that. I mean, you want
you want to start it on the right foot. Hey,
let let's let's let's address the elephant the room right away. Yes,
it was a fumble. What was I gonna do? Give
it back when they call, when they said, we can
hold the football, and we go on and again we
win by the tuck rule.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
We go on and start a dynasty in there.
Speaker 7 (36:55):
Any commercial that does that sportsmanship passed that on.
Speaker 3 (36:58):
I was out of bounds.
Speaker 5 (37:02):
Here.
Speaker 3 (37:03):
I didn't come down with two feet in No, I
was good. No, it's not clear.
Speaker 7 (37:06):
You say, may come on, you you go and you
grabbed the ball like your soccer and you know, damn
well it wasn't.
Speaker 3 (37:11):
You're throwing.
Speaker 7 (37:12):
You're throwing at us fast and as far down the
field as you can.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
There's no decision, no decision time for the referee. Same
thing here. Wait, wait you know what, no advantage. Let
it go. Just let's just let that advantage. Let it go. No,
I think you only do that.
Speaker 1 (37:26):
I think you did you say, Hey, listen, guy, I'm sorry, Yes,
it was a fumble.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
I mean I didn't expect to be back out of
the field. I don't know why the officials called it.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
The way they did. No one had ever seen that
rule in forty years in the NFL. But okay, I mean,
I'm not going to give it back and up. But here,
you look, enough time has gone by, We had a dynasty,
have won seven super Bowls. I mean, you guys have
been really nothing from going on two decades. Now, why
don't we all just start over again. Let's just start
over from the beginning. Yes, it was a fumble. I
think that would go a long way.
Speaker 7 (37:53):
Do you think anybody asked him that when he walked
into the facilities today because they gazed. They gathered all
the staff to welcome in, and anybody got any questions?
Speaker 3 (38:02):
Hey, hey, hey, admit it, admit it? Admit what? Admit it? Brady?
Or just people wall just got fired just that fast.
Speaker 1 (38:13):
People just walk by and go, hey, Tom fumble, Hey
Tom was a fumble.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
Ay, nice to beach. Tom was a fumble. Just people
just saying.
Speaker 7 (38:19):
Something stuff out of the as he's walking down the hallway, Oh.
Speaker 3 (38:26):
Did you not like that?
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Did you fumble that phone when I knocked it out
of your hands? Or was that something where oh you
had it tucked in and it was protected or what
was that?
Speaker 3 (38:34):
Tom? What was that?
Speaker 7 (38:35):
I gotta say there was a trading card set they
did from Upper.
Speaker 3 (38:39):
Deck years ago when they had the license and the set.
Speaker 7 (38:42):
They all look like paintings, and it's one of my
favorite sets ever because it commemorates all these random events.
Speaker 3 (38:48):
You know, you've got Norwood's miss, You've.
Speaker 7 (38:51):
Got all these others, and then you've got the tuck rule,
Like it's the only card I've ever seen that actually
has the play and this the snapshot of where the
ball is. So anytime I see that and I can
pick one up for I've got a bunch of copies
of it, just because every once in a while, I'm like,
for Christmas, do I send that with a card? Just
(39:11):
be like, ah, here's a nice reminder. I mean, I mean, I.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
Go, yeah, look at now and go His throwing motion
is gone.
Speaker 1 (39:18):
He touched the ball with his left hand, like he's
got two hands on the ball.
Speaker 3 (39:22):
How is he still? How it? Come on, man, come on,
he was gonna rugby pass it. What are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Beekert goes running off the field with the ball. Woodson celebrating.
Oh great as that No, every day, every day since
Send for the Raiders has kind of been a tie
for a second.
Speaker 3 (39:37):
As bad as things have been, it's been a tie
after that game.
Speaker 7 (39:40):
On the plus side from Mark Davis, it's what's the
franchise valued at?
Speaker 3 (39:43):
Like seven billion? Yeah? Yeah, no, no, no, Now you
got Brady involved, That's it's great. I mean, who is it?
Richard Seymour has a has a slice right? Well, But
but here's the other thing.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
What do they always say, like when when someone young
becomes a manager, they go, oh, you know, when when
your best third basement's your managed, or you have a
problem point in the NFL, when your best quarterback is
your owner, you really have a problem or it can wait.
I mean it's one of those things. But boy, you
really have a problem your best quarterback as your own.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (40:10):
Yeah, I gotta say the amount of handwringing over Brady
in the booth versus being an owner, like, just worry
about your own damn jobs.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
People. It's like, what's he doing lying to you on.
Speaker 7 (40:20):
The broadcast about what he sees? Because there's some rules
there about you know, criticizing officials. You could do that
it's word play.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
He's a broadcast professional. Now, exactly was a fumble? Exactly,
exactly exactly what I'm saying.
