00:00Two of the ALDS?

00:04Could be.

00:06Game, yeah, could be game two.

00:07Saturday's game one.

00:10I mean, you still, you could throw,

00:12you could throw him Saturday.

00:12You could throw him Saturday.

00:13Yeah, you could throw him Saturday.

00:15But here's the deal, he'd be lined up

00:16for game five regardless, whether he starts game one

00:18or game two. Or game two, yeah.

00:19Yes.

00:21Tom's holding up two.

00:23Yeah, yeah, I would be shocked

00:25if they'd pitch him on three days rest.

00:27Yeah, you'd probably save him for game two.

00:30I mean, you might do that in game seven

00:32of the World Series.

00:33Sure.

00:34I don't think they're gonna do that.

00:34Yeah, probably not.

00:35Game two.

00:36Especially since he's normal rest on two and five.

00:39Yeah, yes.

00:39Or he starts one of the ALCS.

00:43Let's go down that road.

00:43And then he could start one, five,

00:48and then be available on a seven.

00:49Like, that's what you do with your ace, right?

00:51In the World Series.

00:52Or one, four, and seven, depending on the off days.

00:54Tricky, too, because the weather gets so bad

00:56by that time of the year, usually,

00:58that there'd probably be some,

00:59could be a delay that helps them.

01:00Right.

01:01TicketTexture points out something interesting.

01:03Have we considered that three of the four AL playoff teams

01:07could be from the same division after this round?

01:10Royals won yesterday, Guardians are waiting, Tigers up.

01:13Well, we could have three from the AL Central,

01:15and then the Yankees.

01:16I saw an interesting tattoo.

01:17I think they're the only division

01:18that has three in the postseason.

01:21But you also have, when you add up

01:24everybody in the division's record,

01:26the division record is still like 35 games below 500

01:29because the White Sox were so bad.

01:33TicketTexture's talking about their experience yesterday.

01:36Says, I was at the gym, the entire gym was stopped

01:38and glued to the TV in the ninth inning.

01:40Sure.

01:41Says, when Torque snagged that line drive,

01:42there was a lot of fist-pumping smiles.

01:44That's Alex and Klaussen.

01:45That's when you want to be working out, man.

01:47Get some of that anxiety out.

01:50Exactly.

01:52Heather, what was Colin like during all this?

01:54He was loud.

01:57I missed quite a bit of the game

01:58because I was picking Emily up from school.

02:00We had to make some stops afterward.

02:01So when I got home, Colin was in his office.

02:05You were listening to it in the car, right?

02:06I actually was a little bit, yes,

02:08until Twinkle Twinkle Little Star was requested

02:11and that got changed and whatever.

02:13Anyway.

02:14Come on, Emily.

02:15He was yelling.

02:17He was loud.

02:18He was excited.

02:19He was nervous.

02:20Somebody called in and said they were basically coaching.

02:23That's kind of what it sounded like he was doing.

02:24Like, do this, do that, don't do that.

02:27He was yelling at the screen.

02:28Throw a strike.

02:29He was taking on the personality of A.J. Hinch.

02:31Yep.

02:32Yeah.

02:33We're all kind of A.J. in those moments.

02:35Like, you got to go get Foley.

02:36Get him out of the game.

02:37Get him out of the game.

02:38Bows in, falls back, 1-0, 2-1.

02:40Throw strikes, throw strikes.

02:42Not over the plate though.

02:42Not over the plate.

02:44And then you're rationalizing.

02:45Okay, he walks to load the bases.

02:47You're like, oh, and now we got to force out at any bag.

02:50Right.

02:51Instead of, a single ends the game and we lose.

02:55I even go, I guess you could walk one guy here.

02:58You just can't.

02:59Yeah, but then he's behind the counter.

03:01You're like, oh, don't walk in a run, 3-2.

03:03Don't want to see him get hit.

03:04But if he does, you still haven't given up the lead.

03:05Like, you're trying.

03:06You still haven't forced out at any bag.

03:07Any base.

03:08And no one's warming up.

03:10It's Bowe's chance.

03:11Either he's going to do it or they're not.

03:13And it's a line drive too.

03:14It's not like a big emphatic punch out.

03:16Oh, man.

03:17You don't know.

03:18Right, yeah, because you can't see it.

03:19Right.

03:19All you see is the good contact and you're like, oh no.

03:22Yes!

03:23I got a tweet from somebody.

03:25This is a call we got last week.

03:27Torkelson, Gold Glove.

03:28Oh.

03:30It's right at him.

03:31All right, I mean, nice play.

03:33I appreciate you catching one that was right at you.

03:38Texter says Dickerson saying no in the ninth

03:41on the swinging strikeout that they called a foul ball.

03:44Was my blood pressure going through the roof,

03:46Steve, in New Baltimore?

03:48Yeah, the Diaz at Bath that ball hit the dirt,

03:51but for a second you thought they got robbed.

03:53Man.

03:55It was total agony.

03:58Total agony for, I mean, and what did it last for?

04:01It felt like it lasted for 45 minutes,

04:04but it was literally like, what?

04:05Eight minutes at the most.

04:07Yeah, but even like Tickertexter pointed out,

04:09like second, third inning, you're starting

04:11to kind of creep up a little bit in your seat.

04:13Like, that'll do it to you.

04:14Playoff, baseball, it's back and it's not going anywhere.

04:16Every pitch matters.

04:17That's right.

04:18All right, Sherone Moore coming up.
