Covino and Rich and of course eight seven seven ninety
nine on Fox.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
We have lots to get to.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Rich is fired up about baseball and about the weather
and everything else.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
A Mets losh yesterday, so today guess who's back back again.
Lindor leads off the game tonight against Chris Sale, who
seems unbeatable. So that's a big one tonight if they
get it in with the weather. So we'll keep an
eye on that playoff. Baseball around the corner. We're gonna
talk a lot of NFL today, but first I have
(02:19):
to ask there. I think there's strategy involved on Netflix tonight.
You're fire, mister McMahon is out. Ye give me your
best vincemick Man. Guy, I don't do a good Vince mcman.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
You're your.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I would say, I'm come on, that's terrible veins there.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
You gotta get a little fleming there.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Well, I bring up the strategicy because any kid that
grew up seventies eighty nineties, you love yourself some old
school WWF now WWE Wrestling. And this Vince McMahon documentary
which started out, I think it's like a favorable piece
towards Vince because he's part of it. When all that
(03:17):
stuff about him came out, it turned the other way
and he said that Netflix is deceptive, which makes you
want to watch it even more. And here's the fun
of it. What a perfect day after some baseball? What
do you got, Cavino? No football tonight? It's Wednesday unless
you feel like watching The Golden Bachelorette.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
No, I'm gonna watch American Sports Story too, because episode
three is out. Aaron Hernandez Story on Hulu FX. It's
good so far do you watching both?
Speaker 3 (03:43):
You're not pumped up though, And by the way, there
is a strategicy that the Aaron Hernandez documentary and Mister
McMahon are out on Wednesdays because during the football season,
I think, if it's aim towards a male demographic, what
better day than Wednesday? Because the reality is the other
nights we're all consumed with football. We are really suckers
(04:04):
for football, like every day. If football is on seven
days a week, we.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Would watch and baseball matters, yeah, more than ever, man,
So yeah, you got to balance out that schedule. So
I'll be watching some Vincent command for sure. Y'are fuck
And you also got to balance out what your wife
or girlfriend wants to watch with you, right, And that's
perfect for me because I know my girlfriend's not going
to give a diddley ado about Vince McMahon, So I'll
(04:28):
watch that solo Han solo style tonight.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
You say Han solo because you know whose birthday it
is today, Luke Skywalker Shout out to Luke. Now we
have lots to get to live from the tire rrack
dot Com studio again thanks to tyre rank dot Com.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Thank you guys, we got midwek major. The biggest stories
in the world of sports and pop culture are they
midweek or major? Spotties on standby waving just to say Hi,
I getting ready for some midweek major.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
You do it every Wednesday. But before I talk about oh.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Tani, you mean the guy that was in the on
deck circle before I do that, Did you see who
caught Judges fifty sixth Yeah, the Zach Campbell kid, the
foul ball dude. Can we give him his flowers? As
the kiddo say. I know he rubs people the wrong way.
I know he's a very polarizing guy. Rich and I
met him though when he wrote that book, he had
(05:22):
seemed like a nice kid. I'm not saying he's not annoying.
I'm not saying that.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
He's likable, but I am saying he has one of
the most unique skills ever. For this kid to retrieve
like over twelve thousand home running ball like an odd hub,
he's insane. This dude gets a hold of every home
run ball that seems to matter because he has this
ability to know who's pitching or pitchers are being thrown
(05:49):
where the batter would hit those pitches and be there
at that exact moment to snag that home run ball.
He's done it over ten thousand times. Truly, he has
legendary balls, I'll say. And he caught judges fifty six.
I'm not saying his fifty six is worth a certain amount,
(06:11):
but he got a lot of airtime, like Ferris Bueller
cheering in the stands.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
When he caught it yesterday.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
I'm just here to say it's so insanely unique, the
ability to do that when you're in a stadium full
of fifty five thousand plus. Yeah, the fact that his
name is like, he's the guy you're right a packed
the Yankee Stadium. And by the way, as much as
I want to hate on your Yanks because it's fun, Yeah,
it was really cool to hear John Sterling on the
radio call, oh, I'm back, no judging, No Nedda's high ball,
(06:42):
rus ned as far Nedda's gone.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
So yeah, that's great. But before I took Otani, I
want to point out just how unbelievable that is. And
if you don't know, there's a guy named Zach Campbell
who just catches all these home run balls. He's made
a living out of it. It's a weird hobby. There's
a lot of criticism that you know, I'll leave it
to the kids, but he does give.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
A lot of them to the kids. Yeah, people hate
this guy.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
And you saw him again prime time, you know, all
over Sports Center, if you watched the game again a
lot of TV time yesterday.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
It's always the same guy.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
And you're the one that said it was weird that
Dan Byer collected little helmets. This guy's got twelve thousand balls.
I like your I like your helmet stamp. I like
Dan Byer's helmets. Always growing as well, expansion, never hating
on your helmet, your helmets grow. No you need in
your helmet collection? Do you need the that sweet new
red Tech Texans helmet?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (07:35):
I got the new Ravens one, the purple one, but
that Texans one would be.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
You know it's sweet, too sweet purple helmet, Dan, stop
it stop? You know you know it's also pretty sweet. No,
the new Arizona Cardinals black helmet with the that pops
to me.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I love the uniform they last week got it rich,
You've already got it.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
You've already got the black cards.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Yes, what do you just space on your wall? For
these little house.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Absolutely, you know what.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
In fact, I even have the forty nine ers one
that Rich will not remember. When they went to that
logo for a day, for a day, somebody made a
few of those.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
I have one of those. Your wife, man, she's so lucky.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
One day we got to visit the dan But if
we saw the wall he showed us.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
They only thinking you'll never be at my house. I
saw it.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
I would love to see it. He showed us a
picture of it. He has an impressive mini helmet collection.
But this Zach Campbell dude has barrels and buckets and
garbage cans full of the home run balls he's caught.
He did it once again last night, or should I
say Judge did it once again, because Rich and I
got in a debate that's carried on in today into
today about who's having a better season if there was
(08:48):
one MVP. Rich's argument was there should be one MVP,
but if there was, would it be Judge or Otani?
Who's having that better season? We posted a clip today, Man,
that feedback's been nonsty since.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
We was talking to a bunch of my softball buddies
last night about this. Yeah, and oddly enough. It's a
weird angle no one has brought up in the last
decade where wait a minute, baseball still has two MVPs
and two say Young's where every other sport there is
one MVP.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
But we are still living in the NLAI world when
it hasn't been that way in years.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Well, again, Otani's the best player in baseball, no question,
But I ask you, what are his defensive stats this year?
Speaker 1 (09:27):
This year? It's judge, that's my opinion.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
You want to hear what we said about it, catch
the podcast or catch our clip at Covino and Rich. Now,
Judge hit one yesterday. I put him at fifty six.
When Otani went fifty to fifty A very unique stat. Yeah,
that's really I don't want to say all it is,
but it's a very unique stat that exemplifies power and speed. Yeah,
(09:50):
when he hit his fiftieth, there's a few dudes. Did
you see if one dude came so close to getting it?
He had a million dollars right in his hands A.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Tickets.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Yeah, how do you I'm not saying how do you live?
Golden ticket? Pun intended because Ken Golden is now hosting
the auction as we speak.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
I don't want to say how do you live? But
but how do you live?
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Like, imagine you have to tell your kids, like the
dad's a klutz. I almost had, you know, your future
house in college paid for.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
And then and the kid who had a full firm
grasp on it, he still was wrestling it away from
other people. At what point do you just give up? Right,
because that's a million dollars right there at least so
as of right now as we speak. Ken Golden from
Golden Collectibles, you've seen his show on Netflix.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Another one you can watch on Netflix. I enjoyed that
burnette on that Show's hot. Oh yeah, it's a great show.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Oh you talking about Ken Golden or the woman about
oh the woman girl, the girl from Jersey.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Yeah, she's hot.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
So Otani and Ken Golden, which set the record the
new club, the fifty to fifty Club where Otani's the VIP.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
The home run.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Ball was originally offered what three hundred thousand dollars from
the organization.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
That was the report?
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Yeah, the report was the kid caught the ball and
you're like, we'll give you a three hundred thousand dollars kid,
right now, let's go. And he's like nah, that was
the original story. Three hundred thousand dollars. He said no,
and I said, yeah, good for him. I know some
people might jump at that money, but this is history,
this is Otani, this is the fiftieth this is the
(11:30):
magic one.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
No way, because got skills, Pryce negotiate. He said no
to that.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
So I'm just the rumor is it was a Dodger's representative.
Three hundred k right? He says no as of today.
I guess he is aware that Ken Golden's the guy,
or maybe Ken Golden reaches out to him. I don't
know how that works, but we've seen the show. He's
got people working for him. Ken says, listen, this is
(11:57):
a piece of history. Let me auction enough for you.
Where the best in the game. We're gonna get you
the most money for this ball. Give it to me.
And the kid did, and he started today at five
hundred thousand dollars. Nice, So as we as we speak,
the starting bid, the starting bid is five hundred thousand
dollars or last I read, you could buy it outright, like,
(12:19):
let's not even play any games. Four point five million dollars.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
What, I'm honest, you want it on his Steed right now,
you guys want to go six hundred thousand.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Yeah, yeah, put it on the Fox Sports expense. Yeah,
they'll approve it. So they say four point five, it's yours.
Forget about auction, we'll sell it outright. What do you
think this will go?
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Rich?
Speaker 3 (12:43):
I think record breaking one one, one to two. I
think in the one to two or at one point
four maybe. However, I have two old tiny questions based
on all this. Here's the thing. It's what's set the
record or the club. But it's not going to be
like his total amount. But I think this is the value, right,
I think you jump now at the auction. I don't
think this is a ball that you hold for a
(13:04):
decade or so. I agree, I agree, But my two
layer Otani question, as you think about what is this
ball worth?
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Valuable balls?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Again outright for a staggering four point five and then
I quote if bidding reaches three million. Prior to October ninth, however,
Golden officials wrote the option to purchase privately will no
longer be available, and interested parties must compete and bid
for the baseball. So there's all these little rules and
regulations to try to get people to juice up the
(13:37):
price and offer for this ball right now.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
It's a hard one, man, it's a good one.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Put that in real estate mindset, and the Dodgers are
pretty much like, yeah, we'll give you three hundred thousand
dollars for that house.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
And they're like, no, this is a four.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Million dollar Hollywood Hills home. That's really the equivalent. It's like, yo,
you want to right now? Is also like a major
part of this. Yeah, so my two layers besides what
is it worth? I want to get like in the
one to two million dollar range. I don't know if
that warrants four to five mil.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Come on.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
It's our favorite Danny g phrase, Prisoners of the moment.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Look at everybody. Otani's the greatest of all time. He
might be.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
He probably is. We said it, move over, babe, Ruth.
Otani's the guy. Is he having the best year? I say,
Judge is having the best year. If you have aller now,
if you're the sellest balls, the hottest thing going right,
it's Sidney Sweeney in this ball.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I can't think of things that are hotter than that.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
If you're the seller, you have to live in the
moment and being the prisoner of the moment because listen, eventually,
maybe it doesn't have as much value. My grandfather, Yeah,
you got to strike on. My grandfather used to say.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
When I would go to the baseball car shop and
I'd be like, Grandpa, i got Knkerfee Juniors. Here, here's
my Frank Thomas Rookie Stadium Club.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
And I'd be like, here's my Berry Bonds, my Mark
Maguire team UFA traded set. And he'd be like, all, Richie,
they're only worth as much as someone will give you.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Because I would always be.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Like, Grandpa, this one's worth a hundred, kid, and he'd
be like, Richie, one hundred. When someone I see tells
you he has one hundred, so.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
It showed him.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's just you know, suggested. So we'll
see what they get. But here's the two layers. I'm
gonna go off a little bit on this. First of all,
Oh Tani. Last night, Sorry Dodgers fans, you've heard all.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Day triple pullyuns. The game with Tanis was pretty awesome.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
It was for them to be to clinch a postseason
right yeah, And and for at Birth and for the
Mets and Braves and other teams. It keeps the Padres
with their foot on the gas because now they want
the division. So I'm like, yo, Padres, keep it like
I want them to beat Arizona essentially next series. Anyway,
(15:49):
I know, hindsight is twenty twenty in sports Monday Morning quarterback.
I get it like you could question a baseball manager
every pitching change. Ah, you should have left him in. Oh,
you left him in too long? Would you not pinch
it all? You pinch it for this guy and the
first pitcher guy pops up second. Guessing is a part
of sports, just but if you have first and second,
(16:09):
no outs, and you're down by two, and Rojas is
at the bat at the plate and Sho Hayes in
the on deck circle, is there a part of you
that says, move over the runners. Get Otani up there
with second and third. But then they may walk in.
But then handsome but then probably so odd? I like,
(16:29):
what in the change?
Speaker 5 (16:32):
The other thing is that Rojas has been a really
good contact hitter all season, so.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
You're hoping he slaps on the other way or does something.
To me, hindsight is the last thing you're guessing is
a triple player. I know, but Otani would be up
with second and third, and then if you walk Otani,
isn't who's after Otani?
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Dude, good contact hitter or not. I'm having him bunt
right there, I'm having him move the runners over.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
If the runners over play, it's safe. Give a Tani
that chance, right, Like, that's true, that's a great point.
Why would you take any chances in that moment when
you have Otani there? I'm with you, Rich, you know
it's easier said now in retro that was right, I
was I was gonna say.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
And then if it's second and third, one out and
they're like, walk o Tani, now you're giving Mookie Bets
an opportunity with the bases juiced one out.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yeah, but you essentially never gave Otani the shot.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
But well, you get what you're doing there is you're
trusting Rojas, and it's just unfortunate that the worst case
scenario happened for the Dodgers. I just thought that was
interesting because of all the second guessing. Can you really
judge Dave Roberts for saying, Hey, Rojas, swing.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Away, hold on, I'm gonna I'm gonna hit up my
buddy Elias at the Sports Bureau. How many triple plays
this year? Looks like it's already been searched here at
Fox Sports. I'm gonna say two, three?
Speaker 1 (17:50):
How many? How many triple plays a yearly?
Speaker 5 (17:51):
Three?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I would say under five. I'm not getting an answer.
Let me see. These different things are coming up.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Dude. You shouldna look at that at work. I will say,
I please play some on hold music.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Yeah, well, while I figure that out, it can't be high.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
So to think that would happen, Oh damn, go to it. dB,
Break the news, Breaking news from Fox Sports.
Speaker 4 (18:22):
Mets Braves postpones tonight. Ah, Mets Braves postponed tomorrow. Oh
oh see. Both games will be made up on Monday
if needed for postseason positioning midmire.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Not only is that breaking news for all baseball fans
and rich, especially being a Mets fan, but for all
of us personally, because we're supposed to be heading that way.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Oh, they're declaring a state of emergency.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Yeah, and we've been promoting an event for two months
and now we're like, what are we gonna do? Apparently
there's rain happening right now, which has nothing to do
with the hurricane, which is why they postponed this evening, but.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
The storm's right behind it, the Category ones coming in.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
It's a big national story, so I could talk about
it without feeling like I'm being too much of a homer.
But there's a big sentiment among Braves fans and Met
fans that this has been handled so poorly by the
Braves in Major League Baseball. Yo, this is not nineteen twenty.
We have state of the art weather equipment that reads
(19:19):
these things, sonars and radars. They knew a week ago
this was happening, and they had a Monday off day.
They could have moved one of the games up and
tried to start today earlier, but they stuck to their
ridiculous guns of like, we'll just keep it as is,
and now you're putting the most important series in doubleheader
(19:42):
form on the day before the wild Card starts.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Honestly, it's horse crap. Oh It's terrible, terrible, and you
know what it takes away from all your fun tonight?
Theks like you're watching the comedy sport.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
It looks like I'm watching Golden Bachelorette.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
But I will say this, Danny, before you give the explanation,
I will say there's one advantage for the Mets.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
You know, I'll tell you what it is after Danny
gives his luck.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
I gotta explain nothing to you. No, I have the
answer to your trivia question, how many triple plays? And
Reddit is never wrong. This is from Justico facts.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
I had it.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
There have only been two triple plays in MLB this year.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Look at that.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
So you know you can't blame Dave Roberts. Then you
should have known what triple play was coming, can't. I
agree with Danny.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
G because you gotta imagine the frustration of Danny G
and all the Dodgers fans last night. You can't take
that chance and not give o Tani.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Yeah, you have to give a shot.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
You hear Joe Davis, who I love. He's my favorite broadcaster.
He's my favorite broadcaster other than Gary Cohen on the Mets.
Did you hear Joe Davis? Before that? He goes, oh, Tani,
we'll get up next. We just don't know what the
circumstances like.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
He was sure of it, because you rarely see I
think there's only been over a little over seven hundred ever.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
So in baseball. Here's what I'm gonna let you know.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
I'm gonna let you know why this is actually advantage
New York Mets. A huge reason as to why this
is advantage New York Mets over the Braves.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
I'll explain.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
We'll talk a little more postseason baseball, We'll talk a
lot of NFL today. I want to get right back
into this because tomorrow kicks off Week four and we're
all as confused as ever. And if you think you
know what you're talking about, you're full of it. So
we'll get all that next. Your buds coming on rech

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Well, stay safe on the East coast at our affiliates
out there because it is raining.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
It's pouring. Big Mic is snoring. Yeah, is I saw
how that sound was? Yeah? Oh god, look this place.
I'm run this place rating for ing old story.
Speaker 2 (25:09):
So I said me for the commercial that clear there's
actually in advantage New York Mets.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Let me explain.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Who is your likely nl CY Young Award winner Former
stud in the al took a step back and it's like,
oh my god, guess who's back and that would be Chrissale,
and Big Mike just came in and gave us the finger.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Hi Mike, Oh he's awake.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Oh man, Fine, So Chris Sale, as you know, the
stats are undeniable. Could be he's got eighteen wins in
e RA and the low two's two hundred and twenty
five strikeouts. He's back to old Chris Sale like and
like NL Cy Young.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Most likely.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
The Mets were supposed to face Chrisale tonight, and if
Tomorrow's game that we knew was gonna get rained out,
got pushed to Monday, they would have faced Chrysale again.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
So yeah, by this rain.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Delay happening, the Mets don't face Chrissale at all.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Now again, maybe who knows. They might have rocked them tonight.
You don't know, But if you could tell me, advantage Mets.
No team wants to play in a doubleheader before the postseason.
But and it's a big butt, which I know you like,
love big buds. If you could avoid the Cy Young
Award winner two games that will get you into the playoffs,
(26:47):
Met fans should almost be a little pumped about tonight
and tomorrow being rained out. You're avoiding Chrissale two times.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
I guess that's the silver lining. And you give Francisco
Lindor two more days.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
To rest his back, yeah, because he was scheduled to
play already, but like player, he was a baller, not
because he was he said limited.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Yeah, so you.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Give Francisco Indoor two more days and you don't have
to fit face Chris Sale twice.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
And by the way, we were talking about what a
crappy way to end that Dodgers game, right, And I
also looked this up, that triple play. Yeah, like you
have to let us sink in. Of course I seen
the highlights. You see Machado cheer.
Speaker 5 (27:29):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
I thought he was safe at second at first that
he pulled his foot up on the slide all.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
But as it sinks in, you're like, man, he should
have bunted and blah blah blah. Right, but you don't
expect that a triple play to end the game. It
marked the ninth triple play in Padrey's history since the
only ninth ever in Padre's history. Wow in the first
since Chase Headley began a similar around the horn in
twenty ten, and they'd never ever ever in Padrey's history.
(27:58):
Turned one to end the game, a feat which has
only happened twenty eight times in MLB history. So you
could see why they didn't bunt. They didn't think to bunt.
But I guess you gotta factor everything in. You know,
when you got a shot with sho Heyo Tani, it's
so tough to get the ball you want in a
scenario like that. I always give credit when high stakes,
(28:20):
when they bring in a picture that has some good
movement on a slider and they get a guy to
ground into a double play. I'm always fascinated how the
precision by a picture to they like, I'm going to
force this guy to ground out.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Think how many trouble plays you've seen in your life?
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Never, No, I was going to point out just you
were saying, how Zach Campbell, the guy has ten, you know,
tens of thousands of foul balls cock.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
I think the records. I think the numbers over twelve thousand.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Yeah, if he's caught that many foul balls, and we
talk about how we've been to games and you never
catch a foul ball. I play softball a couple days
a week. I'm not saying it's Major League baseball, but
i play third base. I always talk about how all
I want is a ground ball hit to me, that
I could do this step on, throw first, double play,
and it never happens.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
And I always want it.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
Manny Machado's standing there saying, all I want hit a
one bouncer rocket to me, and he got it. He
you know, he was sitting there at third base. He
was in his little set position. He's like, come on,
one bouncer, hit me, hit me one.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Do you know Zach Campbell has his own stats when
you google it year by year how many balls he snagged?
He has over twelve, seven hundred and seventeen balls.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Well, it's a lot of pretty active.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
All right, let's go to Eli and Fresno and then
we'll go to Dan Buyer for an update, and then
we'll talk a bunch of NFL for the rest of
the show. Eli, Fresn, what's upbut you lie.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
You know what's up.
Speaker 6 (29:40):
Thank you for taking my Thank you for taking my call.
I was just gonna say about the Rojas. That bath thing.
I feel like, if you look at in a vacuum,
like you're right, you want to show up in that
spot to win that one game. But they're trying to
win a World Series, and I mean, you're gonna need
Rojas's bat in spots to win a World Series, That's true,
So you want you want him to have confidence. Plus,
(30:02):
I'm not sure Rojas knows how to bun.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
No one knows how to bunt. I'm not even drugging.
I'm so gross.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Even the guys you think that could bunt, they can't bunty.
They were showing. I'm a Yankees fan, as you guys know,
Anthony Volpi trying to lay down a bunt the other day.
I see kids in literally with better fundamentals. I'm like,
this guy's in the bigs and you can't square out.
It's a joke.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
I know it's big league pitching, but these guys, because
they've been stars. If you make it to the bigs
every step of the way, you've just been a star.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
But you always think these smaller, speedy guys should come
with that sort of skill set.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Not all of them do. No, i'pathetic. I've seen star
MVP caliber players unable to lay down a bunt in
a rare scenario.
Speaker 5 (30:46):
I think I read this morning that Rojas had only
hit into six double plays all season long. Ah, so
he's not the guy you expect to, you know, even
hit into a double play, let alone a triple.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Dude.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Honestly, I've probably seen I think I'm speaking for all
of us. If you've seen maybe four or five in
your entire life, that's a lot, Danny g. And the
crazy part is if Machadad's not hugging the line to
prevent extra bases, that's a rocket down the line.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
And Rojas is a hero. So close.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
So there you go. All right, let's go to dB
our Bud Dan Buyer for an update.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
What's up, Dan?
Speaker 4 (31:23):
Hey, can you know when they called you about the insurance,
do they also tell you about Nestor Cortes fifteen day il. Yes, yes,
that's pretty nasty serious. Yes, not gonna make his start.
Not gonna make his start tonight, Marcus Stroman. Instead, we'll
get the start against the Orioles Cortes placed on the
(31:45):
fifteen day I L with a flexer strain in his
left elbow. Yes.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
So week.
Speaker 4 (31:51):
Major League Baseball did confirm the double header that will
be scheduled between the Mets and Braves on Monday if
it is needed for postseason because positioning one ten Eastern
time on Monday is one game one would start. They
would then start game two forty minutes after Wow, well
not just started at eleven.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
Yeah, I'll be honest with you.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
I'm, of course, as you can imagine as a Mets fan,
I'm already mapping out the scenarios in which it wouldn't matter.
What if then? What if here's the goal. If the
Arizona Diamondbacks lay an.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Egg, don't get a call all weekend?
Speaker 2 (32:24):
Yeah, if the Arizona don't give it to shig naight,
whow you have to lick up that story on your
own time.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
If the Arizona Diamondbacks continue to struggle, they've lost a
bunch in a row, they play the Giants and then
they play the Padres. If there's a chance that the
Mets and Braves are actually in line, do they still
have to play those games? Is that one of the scenarios? Like,
would they even want to? It was only a one
page release, so it's I just said, playoff positioning. If
(32:53):
there is a difference between second and third in the
in the wildcoud I think that's what you're asking, right, Yeah, yeah,
what if.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
One of the teams is like now, we'll take the loss.
Is that possible?
Speaker 4 (33:05):
Maybe the other team that would rather take the loss,
you know, I'm not sure that neither would get there. Yeah,
because it'd be the second and third to that point.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Well, this is gonna get tricky, thank you.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
I think they're gonna end up having to play. I mean,
I think it's gonna be tough to avoid. Mariners played
today against the Astros. Houston wrapped up the AL West
last night. Mariners win today eight to one. They still
have an outside chance at the final wild card in
the American League, currently two games back. More news from
the world of sports from the NFL. Yes, Eagles wide

Drive safely everybody anyway, Boogie yogi, AnyWho gotta get ready
(36:59):
for mid week major? The biggest stories in the world
of sports and pop culture. Are they mid as the
kiddo say, week or major. We're gonna talk about that now.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
Question for you before we get into NFL, before you
get into the return of Kareem Hunt and some of
your thoughts about.
Speaker 2 (37:16):
The big games this week. As I want to mention
the White Sox too. At least you know we're the
fans actually cares about the team while you're on the
baseball tip. We'll talk a little White Sox, But I
just wanted to ask you one one question. The more
and more we and everyone talks about Travis Kelce, he's
like double and triple teams a home sticking up for him.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
You see, like Bobcat golf weight. When you do it,
I try.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
People saying, uh, this is heart in it. It was
like some I think ESPN dudes that were going hard, like,
you know, he doesn't care anymore. He's drinking and partying
in the offseason and he doesn't care.
Speaker 1 (37:52):
Hey, you know why though, again that's the world. The
hot takes. What do they know.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
We're here having fun, just giving like our opinion, not
necessarily looking for the.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Shock value for the ratings. Ratings.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
When we say his focus might not be there, it's
just speculation because look at everything he's got going on,
it's almost impossible to think that he has the same
amount of focus.
Speaker 3 (38:19):
And excitement. He's got so much going on. It's grotesque, great,
right it is. But he's also getting older and you
got to face those facts too. So when we do it,
it's just based on speculation, you know, not rooting against it.
Of course, I as a malicious place at all. I
may root for them to lose, but I don't root
against anyone. But it's fair to speculate. It's just how
(38:40):
you do it.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Now.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Based on that speculation, he responded on his New Heights
podcast with his bro you might know him, the oversaturated
everywhere you look, Jason Kelsey, Oh with.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
All the dance moves.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Travis said something to the effect of he doesn't care
about the stats because the team is winning. And think
about your own childhood, little league, high school, college ball,
or even if you were to be so lucky as
to be a professional athlete. How far does that sentiment go, Like,
I don't care about my own stats as long as
the team wins. You think he genuinely feels like, Yo,
(39:16):
we're three and oh, I don't care that I only
have sixty nine yards him?
Speaker 1 (39:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Possibly, I mean he has he established, he he's already established. Yeah,
he has nothing to prove as far as he's gonna
get still levels concerned or what he's capable of. So
I kind of do believe that winning is everything for
guys like him. They're going for three in a row.
They're looking for history, like Danny, his stats if he
is a team player, and I believe he is at
(39:41):
this stage of his career, comes secondary like Danny.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
If Mookie Bets goes zero for five with four strikeouts,
like a miserable night, but like last night, but the
Dodgers clinch against the Padres tonight, Yeah, well they went
in clinch, but you know what I'm saying, it's step closer.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Do you think Mookie Betts is like, yeah, I don't care,
maybe we won.
Speaker 5 (40:03):
Or is he like, man, I want OHO for five.
I think it's a little bit of both. Like, you're
the ultimate competitor, so you want to do good yourself,
but also the bigger picture is you want that ring,
you want the title?
Speaker 2 (40:13):
Yeah, because it's always worse if you lose, right, Yeah,
if he was zero for five and he lost, oh man,
that's thing's way worse.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
The reality is you o for five and you win.
Rock Party had one of his best games ever last weekend.
They lost to the Rams. Rock Purty played a great game.
Speaker 2 (40:28):
Yes, it's a mixed emotions, that's really what it is.
But I feels good about his performance. Hey, man, I
did what I could. You feel good about that? But
you lost so you feel a little bad.
Speaker 3 (40:38):
But Coe, is that what makes the difference between a
pro and someone that plays for fun? Because I always
jokingly say that's but I'm not joking. If you play
rec basketball at the gym, or you're playing Sunday softball,
or if you play pickleball or golf, like, there's a
lot of people like, oh for the fun or off
the team wins. I'll play straight up. I don't leave
(41:01):
my wife and kids at home to go play softball
for my team to win and me go one for four.
If I go four for four and my team gets crushed,
I'm like, yeah, I went four for four.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
Right like that? This comes down to higher stakes. Yeah,
like your team winning softball on a Thursday, that means
nothing cares. I'm not get in front of a hard
hit bullet at third base if we're down by ten runs. Right,
But if you at a professional level, if you're Travis Kelce,
do you think he genuinely deep downside is like, I
don't care that have sixty nine yards, we're three to
(41:33):
oh and one of the only undefeated teams.
Speaker 1 (41:35):
I think, deep.
Speaker 2 (41:35):
Down the noise he hears it, But I think deep
down he doesn't care because they're winning.
Speaker 3 (41:42):
I believe because he himself exactly. Okay, your thoughts and
we'll talk more NFL, more baseball. Next can be non

Speaker 3 (01:57):
A Mets losh yesterday, so today guess who's back back again.
Lindor leads off the game tonight against Chris Sale, who
seems unbeatable. So that's a big one tonight if they
get it in with the weather. So we'll keep an
eye on that playoff. Baseball around the corner. We're gonna
talk a lot of NFL today, but first I have
(02:19):
to ask there. I think there's strategy involved on Netflix tonight.
You're fire, mister McMahon is out. Ye give me your
best vincemick Man. Guy, I don't do a good Vince mcman.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
You're your.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I would say, I'm come on, that's terrible veins there.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
You gotta get a little fleming there.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
Well, I bring up the strategicy because any kid that
grew up seventies eighty nineties, you love yourself some old
school WWF now WWE Wrestling. And this Vince McMahon documentary
which started out, I think it's like a favorable piece
towards Vince because he's part of it. When all that
(03:17):
stuff about him came out, it turned the other way
and he said that Netflix is deceptive, which makes you
want to watch it even more. And here's the fun
of it. What a perfect day after some baseball? What
do you got, Cavino? No football tonight? It's Wednesday unless
you feel like watching The Golden Bachelorette.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
No, I'm gonna watch American Sports Story too, because episode
three is out. Aaron Hernandez Story on Hulu FX. It's
good so far do you watching both?
Speaker 3 (03:43):
You're not pumped up though, And by the way, there
is a strategicy that the Aaron Hernandez documentary and Mister
McMahon are out on Wednesdays because during the football season,
I think, if it's aim towards a male demographic, what
better day than Wednesday? Because the reality is the other
nights we're all consumed with football. We are really suckers
(04:04):
for football, like every day. If football is on seven
days a week, we.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
Would watch and baseball matters, yeah, more than ever, man,
So yeah, you got to balance out that schedule. So
I'll be watching some Vincent command for sure. Y'are fuck
And you also got to balance out what your wife
or girlfriend wants to watch with you, right, And that's
perfect for me because I know my girlfriend's not going
to give a diddley ado about Vince McMahon, So I'll
(04:28):
watch that solo Han solo style tonight.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
You say Han solo because you know whose birthday it
is today, Luke Skywalker Shout out to Luke. Now we
have lots to get to live from the tire rrack
dot Com studio again thanks to tyre rank dot Com.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
Thank you guys, we got midwek major. The biggest stories
in the world of sports and pop culture are they
midweek or major? Spotties on standby waving just to say Hi,
I getting ready for some midweek major.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
You do it every Wednesday. But before I talk about oh.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Tani, you mean the guy that was in the on
deck circle before I do that, Did you see who
caught Judges fifty sixth Yeah, the Zach Campbell kid, the
foul ball dude. Can we give him his flowers? As
the kiddo say. I know he rubs people the wrong way.
I know he's a very polarizing guy. Rich and I
met him though when he wrote that book, he had
(05:22):
seemed like a nice kid. I'm not saying he's not annoying.
I'm not saying that.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
He's likable, but I am saying he has one of
the most unique skills ever. For this kid to retrieve
like over twelve thousand home running ball like an odd hub,
he's insane. This dude gets a hold of every home
run ball that seems to matter because he has this
ability to know who's pitching or pitchers are being thrown
(05:49):
where the batter would hit those pitches and be there
at that exact moment to snag that home run ball.
He's done it over ten thousand times. Truly, he has
legendary balls, I'll say. And he caught judges fifty six.
I'm not saying his fifty six is worth a certain amount,
(06:11):
but he got a lot of airtime, like Ferris Bueller
cheering in the stands.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
When he caught it yesterday.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
I'm just here to say it's so insanely unique, the
ability to do that when you're in a stadium full
of fifty five thousand plus. Yeah, the fact that his
name is like, he's the guy you're right a packed
the Yankee Stadium. And by the way, as much as
I want to hate on your Yanks because it's fun, Yeah,
it was really cool to hear John Sterling on the
radio call, oh, I'm back, no judging, No Nedda's high ball,
(06:42):
rus ned as far Nedda's gone.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
So yeah, that's great. But before I took Otani, I
want to point out just how unbelievable that is. And
if you don't know, there's a guy named Zach Campbell
who just catches all these home run balls. He's made
a living out of it. It's a weird hobby. There's
a lot of criticism that you know, I'll leave it
to the kids, but he does give.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
A lot of them to the kids. Yeah, people hate
this guy.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
And you saw him again prime time, you know, all
over Sports Center, if you watched the game again a
lot of TV time yesterday.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
It's always the same guy.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
And you're the one that said it was weird that
Dan Byer collected little helmets. This guy's got twelve thousand balls.
I like your I like your helmet stamp. I like
Dan Byer's helmets. Always growing as well, expansion, never hating
on your helmet, your helmets grow. No you need in
your helmet collection? Do you need the that sweet new
red Tech Texans helmet?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (07:35):
I got the new Ravens one, the purple one, but
that Texans one would be.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
You know it's sweet, too sweet purple helmet, Dan, stop
it stop? You know you know it's also pretty sweet. No,
the new Arizona Cardinals black helmet with the that pops
to me.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
I love the uniform they last week got it rich,
You've already got it.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
You've already got the black cards.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Yes, what do you just space on your wall? For
these little house.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Absolutely, you know what.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
In fact, I even have the forty nine ers one
that Rich will not remember. When they went to that
logo for a day, for a day, somebody made a
few of those.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
I have one of those. Your wife, man, she's so lucky.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
One day we got to visit the dan But if
we saw the wall he showed us.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
They only thinking you'll never be at my house. I
saw it.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
I would love to see it. He showed us a
picture of it. He has an impressive mini helmet collection.
But this Zach Campbell dude has barrels and buckets and
garbage cans full of the home run balls he's caught.
He did it once again last night, or should I
say Judge did it once again, because Rich and I
got in a debate that's carried on in today into
today about who's having a better season if there was
(08:48):
one MVP. Rich's argument was there should be one MVP,
but if there was, would it be Judge or Otani?
Who's having that better season? We posted a clip today, Man,
that feedback's been nonsty since.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
We was talking to a bunch of my softball buddies
last night about this. Yeah, and oddly enough. It's a
weird angle no one has brought up in the last
decade where wait a minute, baseball still has two MVPs
and two say Young's where every other sport there is
one MVP.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
But we are still living in the NLAI world when
it hasn't been that way in years.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
Well, again, Otani's the best player in baseball, no question,
But I ask you, what are his defensive stats this year?
Speaker 1 (09:27):
This year? It's judge, that's my opinion.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
You want to hear what we said about it, catch
the podcast or catch our clip at Covino and Rich. Now,
Judge hit one yesterday. I put him at fifty six.
When Otani went fifty to fifty A very unique stat. Yeah,
that's really I don't want to say all it is,
but it's a very unique stat that exemplifies power and speed. Yeah,
(09:50):
when he hit his fiftieth, there's a few dudes. Did
you see if one dude came so close to getting it?
He had a million dollars right in his hands A.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Tickets.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Yeah, how do you I'm not saying how do you live?
Golden ticket? Pun intended because Ken Golden is now hosting
the auction as we speak.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
I don't want to say how do you live? But
but how do you live?
Speaker 3 (10:11):
Like, imagine you have to tell your kids, like the
dad's a klutz. I almost had, you know, your future
house in college paid for.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
And then and the kid who had a full firm
grasp on it, he still was wrestling it away from
other people. At what point do you just give up? Right,
because that's a million dollars right there at least so
as of right now as we speak. Ken Golden from
Golden Collectibles, you've seen his show on Netflix.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
Another one you can watch on Netflix. I enjoyed that
burnette on that Show's hot. Oh yeah, it's a great show.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
Oh you talking about Ken Golden or the woman about
oh the woman girl, the girl from Jersey.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Yeah, she's hot.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
So Otani and Ken Golden, which set the record the
new club, the fifty to fifty Club where Otani's the VIP.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
The home run.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Ball was originally offered what three hundred thousand dollars from
the organization.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
That was the report?
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Yeah, the report was the kid caught the ball and
you're like, we'll give you a three hundred thousand dollars kid,
right now, let's go. And he's like nah, that was
the original story. Three hundred thousand dollars. He said no,
and I said, yeah, good for him. I know some
people might jump at that money, but this is history,
this is Otani, this is the fiftieth this is the
(11:30):
magic one.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
No way, because got skills, Pryce negotiate. He said no
to that.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
So I'm just the rumor is it was a Dodger's representative.
Three hundred k right? He says no as of today.
I guess he is aware that Ken Golden's the guy,
or maybe Ken Golden reaches out to him. I don't
know how that works, but we've seen the show. He's
got people working for him. Ken says, listen, this is
(11:57):
a piece of history. Let me auction enough for you.
Where the best in the game. We're gonna get you
the most money for this ball. Give it to me.
And the kid did, and he started today at five
hundred thousand dollars. Nice, So as we as we speak,
the starting bid, the starting bid is five hundred thousand
dollars or last I read, you could buy it outright, like,
(12:19):
let's not even play any games. Four point five million dollars.
Speaker 5 (12:23):
What, I'm honest, you want it on his Steed right now,
you guys want to go six hundred thousand.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Yeah, yeah, put it on the Fox Sports expense. Yeah,
they'll approve it. So they say four point five, it's yours.
Forget about auction, we'll sell it outright. What do you
think this will go?
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Rich?
Speaker 3 (12:43):
I think record breaking one one, one to two. I
think in the one to two or at one point
four maybe. However, I have two old tiny questions based
on all this. Here's the thing. It's what's set the
record or the club. But it's not going to be
like his total amount. But I think this is the value, right,
I think you jump now at the auction. I don't
think this is a ball that you hold for a
(13:04):
decade or so. I agree, I agree, But my two
layer Otani question, as you think about what is this
ball worth?
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Valuable balls?
Speaker 2 (13:14):
Again outright for a staggering four point five and then
I quote if bidding reaches three million. Prior to October ninth, however,
Golden officials wrote the option to purchase privately will no
longer be available, and interested parties must compete and bid
for the baseball. So there's all these little rules and
regulations to try to get people to juice up the
(13:37):
price and offer for this ball right now.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
It's a hard one, man, it's a good one.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Put that in real estate mindset, and the Dodgers are
pretty much like, yeah, we'll give you three hundred thousand
dollars for that house.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
And they're like, no, this is a four.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Million dollar Hollywood Hills home. That's really the equivalent. It's like, yo,
you want to right now? Is also like a major
part of this. Yeah, so my two layers besides what
is it worth? I want to get like in the
one to two million dollar range. I don't know if
that warrants four to five mil.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Come on.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
It's our favorite Danny g phrase, Prisoners of the moment.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Look at everybody. Otani's the greatest of all time. He
might be.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
He probably is. We said it, move over, babe, Ruth.
Otani's the guy. Is he having the best year? I say,
Judge is having the best year. If you have aller now,
if you're the sellest balls, the hottest thing going right,
it's Sidney Sweeney in this ball.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I can't think of things that are hotter than that.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
If you're the seller, you have to live in the
moment and being the prisoner of the moment because listen, eventually,
maybe it doesn't have as much value. My grandfather, Yeah,
you got to strike on. My grandfather used to say.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
When I would go to the baseball car shop and
I'd be like, Grandpa, i got Knkerfee Juniors. Here, here's
my Frank Thomas Rookie Stadium Club.
Speaker 3 (14:50):
And I'd be like, here's my Berry Bonds, my Mark
Maguire team UFA traded set. And he'd be like, all, Richie,
they're only worth as much as someone will give you.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
Because I would always be.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
Like, Grandpa, this one's worth a hundred, kid, and he'd
be like, Richie, one hundred. When someone I see tells
you he has one hundred, so.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
It showed him.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's just you know, suggested. So we'll
see what they get. But here's the two layers. I'm
gonna go off a little bit on this. First of all,
Oh Tani. Last night, Sorry Dodgers fans, you've heard all.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Day triple pullyuns. The game with Tanis was pretty awesome.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
It was for them to be to clinch a postseason
right yeah, And and for at Birth and for the
Mets and Braves and other teams. It keeps the Padres
with their foot on the gas because now they want
the division. So I'm like, yo, Padres, keep it like
I want them to beat Arizona essentially next series. Anyway,
(15:49):
I know, hindsight is twenty twenty in sports Monday Morning quarterback.
I get it like you could question a baseball manager
every pitching change. Ah, you should have left him in. Oh,
you left him in too long? Would you not pinch
it all? You pinch it for this guy and the
first pitcher guy pops up second. Guessing is a part
of sports, just but if you have first and second,
(16:09):
no outs, and you're down by two, and Rojas is
at the bat at the plate and Sho Hayes in
the on deck circle, is there a part of you
that says, move over the runners. Get Otani up there
with second and third. But then they may walk in.
But then handsome but then probably so odd? I like,
(16:29):
what in the change?
Speaker 5 (16:32):
The other thing is that Rojas has been a really
good contact hitter all season, so.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
You're hoping he slaps on the other way or does something.
To me, hindsight is the last thing you're guessing is
a triple player. I know, but Otani would be up
with second and third, and then if you walk Otani,
isn't who's after Otani?
Speaker 5 (16:52):
Dude, good contact hitter or not. I'm having him bunt
right there, I'm having him move the runners over.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
If the runners over play, it's safe. Give a Tani
that chance, right, Like, that's true, that's a great point.
Why would you take any chances in that moment when
you have Otani there? I'm with you, Rich, you know
it's easier said now in retro that was right, I
was I was gonna say.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
And then if it's second and third, one out and
they're like, walk o Tani, now you're giving Mookie Bets
an opportunity with the bases juiced one out.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yeah, but you essentially never gave Otani the shot.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
But well, you get what you're doing there is you're
trusting Rojas, and it's just unfortunate that the worst case
scenario happened for the Dodgers. I just thought that was
interesting because of all the second guessing. Can you really
judge Dave Roberts for saying, Hey, Rojas, swing.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
Away, hold on, I'm gonna I'm gonna hit up my
buddy Elias at the Sports Bureau. How many triple plays
this year? Looks like it's already been searched here at
Fox Sports. I'm gonna say two, three?
Speaker 1 (17:50):
How many? How many triple plays a yearly?
Speaker 5 (17:51):
Three?
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I would say under five. I'm not getting an answer.
Let me see. These different things are coming up.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Dude. You shouldna look at that at work. I will say,
I please play some on hold music.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Yeah, well, while I figure that out, it can't be high.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
So to think that would happen, Oh damn, go to it. dB,
Break the news, Breaking news from Fox Sports.
Speaker 4 (18:22):
Mets Braves postpones tonight. Ah, Mets Braves postponed tomorrow. Oh
oh see. Both games will be made up on Monday
if needed for postseason positioning midmire.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Not only is that breaking news for all baseball fans
and rich, especially being a Mets fan, but for all
of us personally, because we're supposed to be heading that way.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Oh, they're declaring a state of emergency.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
Yeah, and we've been promoting an event for two months
and now we're like, what are we gonna do? Apparently
there's rain happening right now, which has nothing to do
with the hurricane, which is why they postponed this evening, but.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
The storm's right behind it, the Category ones coming in.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
It's a big national story, so I could talk about
it without feeling like I'm being too much of a homer.
But there's a big sentiment among Braves fans and Met
fans that this has been handled so poorly by the
Braves in Major League Baseball. Yo, this is not nineteen twenty.
We have state of the art weather equipment that reads
(19:19):
these things, sonars and radars. They knew a week ago
this was happening, and they had a Monday off day.
They could have moved one of the games up and
tried to start today earlier, but they stuck to their
ridiculous guns of like, we'll just keep it as is,
and now you're putting the most important series in doubleheader
(19:42):
form on the day before the wild Card starts.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Honestly, it's horse crap. Oh It's terrible, terrible, and you
know what it takes away from all your fun tonight?
Theks like you're watching the comedy sport.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
It looks like I'm watching Golden Bachelorette.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
But I will say this, Danny, before you give the explanation,
I will say there's one advantage for the Mets.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
You know, I'll tell you what it is after Danny
gives his luck.
Speaker 5 (20:06):
I gotta explain nothing to you. No, I have the
answer to your trivia question, how many triple plays? And
Reddit is never wrong. This is from Justico facts.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
I had it.
Speaker 5 (20:13):
There have only been two triple plays in MLB this year.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
Look at that.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
So you know you can't blame Dave Roberts. Then you
should have known what triple play was coming, can't. I
agree with Danny.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
G because you gotta imagine the frustration of Danny G
and all the Dodgers fans last night. You can't take
that chance and not give o Tani.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Yeah, you have to give a shot.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
You hear Joe Davis, who I love. He's my favorite broadcaster.
He's my favorite broadcaster other than Gary Cohen on the Mets.
Did you hear Joe Davis? Before that? He goes, oh, Tani,
we'll get up next. We just don't know what the
circumstances like.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
He was sure of it, because you rarely see I
think there's only been over a little over seven hundred ever.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
So in baseball. Here's what I'm gonna let you know.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
I'm gonna let you know why this is actually advantage
New York Mets. A huge reason as to why this
is advantage New York Mets over the Braves.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
I'll explain.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
We'll talk a little more postseason baseball, We'll talk a
lot of NFL today. I want to get right back
into this because tomorrow kicks off Week four and we're
all as confused as ever. And if you think you
know what you're talking about, you're full of it. So
we'll get all that next. Your buds coming on rech

Let me explain.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Who is your likely nl CY Young Award winner Former
stud in the al took a step back and it's like,

Hi Mike, Oh he's awake.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
Oh man, Fine, So Chris Sale, as you know, the
stats are undeniable. Could be he's got eighteen wins in

five strikeouts. He's back to old Chris Sale like and
like NL Cy Young.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Most likely.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
The Mets were supposed to face Chrisale tonight, and if
Tomorrow's game that we knew was gonna get rained out,
got pushed to Monday, they would have faced Chrysale again.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
So yeah, by this rain.
Speaker 2 (26:17):
Delay happening, the Mets don't face Chrissale at all.
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Now again, maybe who knows. They might have rocked them tonight.
You don't know, But if you could tell me, advantage Mets.
No team wants to play in a doubleheader before the postseason.
But and it's a big butt, which I know you like,
love big buds. If you could avoid the Cy Young
Award winner two games that will get you into the playoffs,
(26:47):
Met fans should almost be a little pumped about tonight
and tomorrow being rained out. You're avoiding Chrissale two times.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
I guess that's the silver lining. And you give Francisco
Lindor two more days.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
To rest his back, yeah, because he was scheduled to
play already, but like player, he was a baller, not
because he was he said limited.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Yeah, so you.
Speaker 3 (27:09):
Give Francisco Indoor two more days and you don't have
to fit face Chris Sale twice.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
And by the way, we were talking about what a
crappy way to end that Dodgers game, right, And I
also looked this up, that triple play. Yeah, like you
have to let us sink in. Of course I seen
the highlights. You see Machado cheer.
Speaker 5 (27:29):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
I thought he was safe at second at first that
he pulled his foot up on the slide all.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
But as it sinks in, you're like, man, he should
have bunted and blah blah blah. Right, but you don't
expect that a triple play to end the game. It
marked the ninth triple play in Padrey's history since the
only ninth ever in Padre's history. Wow in the first
since Chase Headley began a similar around the horn in
twenty ten, and they'd never ever ever in Padrey's history.
(27:58):
Turned one to end the game, a feat which has
only happened twenty eight times in MLB history. So you
could see why they didn't bunt. They didn't think to bunt.
But I guess you gotta factor everything in. You know,
when you got a shot with sho Heyo Tani, it's
so tough to get the ball you want in a
scenario like that. I always give credit when high stakes,
(28:20):
when they bring in a picture that has some good
movement on a slider and they get a guy to
ground into a double play. I'm always fascinated how the
precision by a picture to they like, I'm going to
force this guy to ground out.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Think how many trouble plays you've seen in your life?
Speaker 3 (28:33):
Never, No, I was going to point out just you
were saying, how Zach Campbell, the guy has ten, you know,
tens of thousands of foul balls cock.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
I think the records. I think the numbers over twelve thousand.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Yeah, if he's caught that many foul balls, and we
talk about how we've been to games and you never
catch a foul ball. I play softball a couple days
a week. I'm not saying it's Major League baseball, but
i play third base. I always talk about how all
I want is a ground ball hit to me, that
I could do this step on, throw first, double play,
and it never happens.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
And I always want it.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
Manny Machado's standing there saying, all I want hit a
one bouncer rocket to me, and he got it. He
you know, he was sitting there at third base. He
was in his little set position. He's like, come on,
one bouncer, hit me, hit me one.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
Do you know Zach Campbell has his own stats when
you google it year by year how many balls he snagged?
He has over twelve, seven hundred and seventeen balls.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Well, it's a lot of pretty active.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
All right, let's go to Eli and Fresno and then
we'll go to Dan Buyer for an update, and then
we'll talk a bunch of NFL for the rest of
the show. Eli, Fresn, what's upbut you lie.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
You know what's up.
Speaker 6 (29:40):
Thank you for taking my Thank you for taking my call.
I was just gonna say about the Rojas. That bath thing.
I feel like, if you look at in a vacuum,
like you're right, you want to show up in that
spot to win that one game. But they're trying to
win a World Series, and I mean, you're gonna need
Rojas's bat in spots to win a World Series, That's true,
So you want you want him to have confidence. Plus,
(30:02):
I'm not sure Rojas knows how to bun.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
No one knows how to bunt. I'm not even drugging.
I'm so gross.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Even the guys you think that could bunt, they can't bunty.
They were showing. I'm a Yankees fan, as you guys know,
Anthony Volpi trying to lay down a bunt the other day.
I see kids in literally with better fundamentals. I'm like,
this guy's in the bigs and you can't square out.
It's a joke.
Speaker 3 (30:26):
I know it's big league pitching, but these guys, because
they've been stars. If you make it to the bigs
every step of the way, you've just been a star.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
But you always think these smaller, speedy guys should come
with that sort of skill set.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Not all of them do. No, i'pathetic. I've seen star
MVP caliber players unable to lay down a bunt in
a rare scenario.
Speaker 5 (30:46):
I think I read this morning that Rojas had only
hit into six double plays all season long. Ah, so
he's not the guy you expect to, you know, even
hit into a double play, let alone a triple.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Dude.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Honestly, I've probably seen I think I'm speaking for all
of us. If you've seen maybe four or five in
your entire life, that's a lot, Danny g. And the
crazy part is if Machadad's not hugging the line to
prevent extra bases, that's a rocket down the line.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
And Rojas is a hero. So close.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
So there you go. All right, let's go to dB
our Bud Dan Buyer for an update.
Speaker 1 (31:22):
What's up, Dan?
Speaker 4 (31:23):
Hey, can you know when they called you about the insurance,
do they also tell you about Nestor Cortes fifteen day il. Yes, yes,
that's pretty nasty serious. Yes, not gonna make his start.
Not gonna make his start tonight, Marcus Stroman. Instead, we'll
get the start against the Orioles Cortes placed on the
(31:45):
fifteen day I L with a flexer strain in his
left elbow. Yes.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
So week.
Speaker 4 (31:51):
Major League Baseball did confirm the double header that will
be scheduled between the Mets and Braves on Monday if
it is needed for postseason because positioning one ten Eastern
time on Monday is one game one would start. They
would then start game two forty minutes after Wow, well
not just started at eleven.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
Yeah, I'll be honest with you.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
I'm, of course, as you can imagine as a Mets fan,
I'm already mapping out the scenarios in which it wouldn't matter.
What if then? What if here's the goal. If the
Arizona Diamondbacks lay an.
Speaker 1 (32:22):
Egg, don't get a call all weekend?
Speaker 2 (32:24):
Yeah, if the Arizona don't give it to shig naight,
whow you have to lick up that story on your
own time.
Speaker 3 (32:30):
If the Arizona Diamondbacks continue to struggle, they've lost a
bunch in a row, they play the Giants and then
they play the Padres. If there's a chance that the
Mets and Braves are actually in line, do they still
have to play those games? Is that one of the scenarios? Like,
would they even want to? It was only a one
page release, so it's I just said, playoff positioning. If
(32:53):
there is a difference between second and third in the
in the wildcoud I think that's what you're asking, right, Yeah, yeah,
what if.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
One of the teams is like now, we'll take the loss.
Is that possible?
Speaker 4 (33:05):
Maybe the other team that would rather take the loss,
you know, I'm not sure that neither would get there. Yeah,
because it'd be the second and third to that point.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Well, this is gonna get tricky, thank you.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
I think they're gonna end up having to play. I mean,
I think it's gonna be tough to avoid. Mariners played
today against the Astros. Houston wrapped up the AL West
last night. Mariners win today eight to one. They still
have an outside chance at the final wild card in
the American League, currently two games back. More news from
the world of sports from the NFL. Yes, Eagles wide
(33:37):
receiver A J. Brown and DeVante Smith not seeing that
the team's practice today, Texans didn't have Joe Mixon or

Herbert was going to be limited. According to the head coach,

faith in your girl? How about that she gets poked

I think I would bet on the fever to lose.

wet willie?

you have to check out graduate hotels.

college towns.

storm on the East coast. But as of now, I mean,
we're hoping to be there Auburn this Friday. If not, listen,
we have other plans to hit up other graduate hotels.
We've been to Eugene, Tempe, Nashville, and it's always a
great time at a graduate hotel. They got that they

buy that baseball.
Speaker 3 (35:58):
I'm gonna ford go vehicle and put a bit in

Nice BMW BMW electric car. I had not anymore, not anymore.
Drive safely everybody anyway, Boogie yogi, AnyWho gotta get ready
(36:59):
for mid week major? The biggest stories in the world
of sports and pop culture. Are they mid as the
kiddo say, week or major. We're gonna talk about that now.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
Question for you before we get into NFL, before you
get into the return of Kareem Hunt and some of
your thoughts about.
Speaker 2 (37:16):
The big games this week. As I want to mention
the White Sox too. At least you know we're the
fans actually cares about the team while you're on the
baseball tip. We'll talk a little White Sox, But I
just wanted to ask you one one question. The more
and more we and everyone talks about Travis Kelce, he's
like double and triple teams a home sticking up for him.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
You see, like Bobcat golf weight. When you do it,
I try.
Speaker 3 (37:42):
People saying, uh, this is heart in it. It was
like some I think ESPN dudes that were going hard, like,
you know, he doesn't care anymore. He's drinking and partying
in the offseason and he doesn't care.
Speaker 1 (37:52):
Hey, you know why though, again that's the world. The
hot takes. What do they know.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
We're here having fun, just giving like our opinion, not
necessarily looking for the.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Shock value for the ratings. Ratings.
Speaker 2 (38:04):
When we say his focus might not be there, it's
just speculation because look at everything he's got going on,
it's almost impossible to think that he has the same
amount of focus.
Speaker 3 (38:19):
And excitement. He's got so much going on. It's grotesque, great,
right it is. But he's also getting older and you
got to face those facts too. So when we do it,
it's just based on speculation, you know, not rooting against it.
Of course, I as a malicious place at all. I
may root for them to lose, but I don't root
against anyone. But it's fair to speculate. It's just how
(38:40):
you do it.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Now.
Speaker 3 (38:40):
Based on that speculation, he responded on his New Heights
podcast with his bro you might know him, the oversaturated
everywhere you look, Jason Kelsey, Oh with.
Speaker 1 (38:50):
All the dance moves.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Travis said something to the effect of he doesn't care
about the stats because the team is winning. And think
about your own childhood, little league, high school, college ball,
or even if you were to be so lucky as
to be a professional athlete. How far does that sentiment go, Like,
I don't care about my own stats as long as
the team wins. You think he genuinely feels like, Yo,
(39:16):
we're three and oh, I don't care that I only
have sixty nine yards him?
Speaker 1 (39:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (39:21):
Possibly, I mean he has he established, he he's already established. Yeah,
he has nothing to prove as far as he's gonna
get still levels concerned or what he's capable of. So
I kind of do believe that winning is everything for
guys like him. They're going for three in a row.
They're looking for history, like Danny, his stats if he
is a team player, and I believe he is at
(39:41):
this stage of his career, comes secondary like Danny.
Speaker 3 (39:44):
If Mookie Bets goes zero for five with four strikeouts,
like a miserable night, but like last night, but the
Dodgers clinch against the Padres tonight, Yeah, well they went
in clinch, but you know what I'm saying, it's step closer.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Do you think Mookie Betts is like, yeah, I don't care,
maybe we won.
Speaker 5 (40:03):
Or is he like, man, I want OHO for five.
I think it's a little bit of both. Like, you're
the ultimate competitor, so you want to do good yourself,
but also the bigger picture is you want that ring,
you want the title?
Speaker 2 (40:13):
Yeah, because it's always worse if you lose, right, Yeah,
if he was zero for five and he lost, oh man,
that's thing's way worse.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
The reality is you o for five and you win.
Rock Party had one of his best games ever last weekend.
They lost to the Rams. Rock Purty played a great game.
Speaker 2 (40:28):
Yes, it's a mixed emotions, that's really what it is.
But I feels good about his performance. Hey, man, I
did what I could. You feel good about that? But
you lost so you feel a little bad.
Speaker 3 (40:38):
But Coe, is that what makes the difference between a
pro and someone that plays for fun? Because I always
jokingly say that's but I'm not joking. If you play
rec basketball at the gym, or you're playing Sunday softball,
or if you play pickleball or golf, like, there's a
lot of people like, oh for the fun or off
the team wins. I'll play straight up. I don't leave
(41:01):
my wife and kids at home to go play softball
for my team to win and me go one for four.
If I go four for four and my team gets crushed,
I'm like, yeah, I went four for four.
Speaker 2 (41:11):
Right like that? This comes down to higher stakes. Yeah,
like your team winning softball on a Thursday, that means
nothing cares. I'm not get in front of a hard
hit bullet at third base if we're down by ten runs. Right,
But if you at a professional level, if you're Travis Kelce,
do you think he genuinely deep downside is like, I
don't care that have sixty nine yards, we're three to
(41:33):
oh and one of the only undefeated teams.
Speaker 1 (41:35):
I think, deep.
Speaker 2 (41:35):
Down the noise he hears it, But I think deep
down he doesn't care because they're winning.
Speaker 3 (41:42):
I believe because he himself exactly. Okay, your thoughts and
we'll talk more NFL, more baseball. Next can be non
