00:05Uh your thoughts on the Dodgers

00:08spanking of the Mets. Nine

00:11nothing. Flaherty had it all

00:13coming out of his glove for

00:14seven innings. Unbelievable

00:17performance from Jack Flaherty

00:18following up an unbelievable

00:19performance from Yamamoto. Very

00:22scary for the rest of Major

00:24League Baseball if the Dodgers

00:25pitching is going to pitch like

00:27this. Their starters got it

00:29right. And Walker Bueller had

00:31pretty good stuff. He had bad

00:33luck. I find it interesting that

00:34they went back to the bullpen

00:36today. As opposed to starting

00:38Bueller. A lot of us thought it

00:39was going to be Bueller. Derek

00:40Jeter thought it was going to be

00:42Bueller. They go with Brazier

00:45and then they're going to go

00:46with obviously another bullpen

00:48game here Scott. I think the

00:50Dodgers are taking this sort of

00:52as a must win situation as well.

00:54With the two three two format

00:56awaiting them. I think their

00:58strategy is we can get up to

01:00nothing. We can roll out Bueller.

01:01We're going to be in New York

01:02for three games. We'll roll out

01:04Bueller and we'll roll our dice

01:05with him because he's sort of

01:06the the wild card. He's

01:08generally going to give you

01:09he's going to give up a couple

01:10of at least three runs. It's

01:11just it just is what it is. So I

01:13think they're trying to avoid

01:14that. Thirty-three consecutive

01:16innings and you know of course

01:19the last time they played in

01:20the championship series Scott

01:21you remember it was epic stuff.

01:23Jay Howell got kicked out.

01:24Lasorda's freaking out. Yeah.

01:26Bulldog Earl Hersheiser. Right.

01:28So Earl Hersheiser to me is one

01:30of the more underrated pitchers

01:32in sort of like history. Right.

01:34Like when people talk about

01:36dominant pitchers, big game

01:37pitchers. He was great. He was a

01:39big yeah you know the Bulldog.

01:40He was you know people remember

01:41the Kirk Gibson home run but

01:42they won the World Series that

01:43year because Earl Hersheiser.

01:45And what did Earl Hersheiser do

01:47in that year Scott? He set a

01:49Major League Baseball record.

01:51Fifty-six consecutive scoreless

01:53innings pitched. Right. Which

01:55I've never heard of. So Earl

01:57Hersheiser fifty-six

01:58consecutive scoreless innings

02:00pitched. And you look at the

02:02Dodgers now. Thirty-three

02:03innings Scott. San Diego can

02:05hit. The Mets can hit. Suddenly

02:07they can't right now. We'll see

02:09if they can keep it going today

02:10but the back end of the Dodgers

02:12lineup is hitting. The front end

02:14Mookie Batts is you know has

02:17woken up. Freddie Freeman is

02:19playing on one leg. Very Kirk

02:21Gibson like. Yeah and he's he's

02:24playing good baseball right now

02:25after that day off. There's a

02:27lot to like about the Dodgers

02:28Scott. I think they're going to

02:29get it done. Again it's funny

02:31because they were minus 150

02:32favorites overnight. And there

02:34was no pitcher listed. And you

02:36know and I do like the Dodgers

02:37again today and I thought you

02:38know let's wait and see because

02:40if they announce it's going to

02:41be Buehler I bet you it falls to

02:43like 135 or something like that.

02:46They announced a bullpen game

02:47and it came down to minus 40

02:48cents but I think the Dodgers

02:50get it done again today Scott.

02:54Yeah.
