00:00Major League Baseball is going to take center stage at 6.08 Eastern, which means

00:033.08 out on the West Coast. I'm going to buck a little bit of trends here because

00:08that means that we might be getting some of those uh-oh shadows in the outfield. But don't you worry.

00:14Toronto and Seattle, they're going to give it up at 6 o'clock. 8.38, you know who else has given up?

00:17The Milwaukee Brewers and the Los Angeles Dodgers, Joe. Let's focus on game number one,

00:22Gaussman versus Miller. Hey, two starting pitchers. Amazing, isn't it? Look at the price point in this

00:27game. Minus 115s, minus 110s, depending where you're shopping at. A de facto toss-up in a series

00:32that should not have been a toss-up with a 2-0 series lead for Seattle headed back to Seattle.

00:37We now find ourselves, Joe, 2-2, a pivotal. Game number five in the total that's listed at seven.

00:44Miller's high ERA, Gaussman, that veteran on the mound. Are the bats going to wake up for the

00:48Mariners? Is Toronto going to continue to slug, Joe? What gives here? It's kind of crazy because

00:56both of these games, Donnie, feel like one team has crazy amounts of momentum right now.

01:02And momentum wins in, you know, this time of year, certainly in Major League Baseball.

01:07You know, we laughed about it, Donnie. Originally, you and I, we were laughing during this week. We're

01:11going, you know, if you're the Brewers, you're like, all right, so I got Scooble in game one.

01:16But if I can get past game one with Scooble, oh, I'm going to get Scooble in game two. Oh,

01:22yeah. And that's exactly what this has to feel like for the Brewers. I think mentally above the

01:28shoulders, even though, Donnie, they should go out there without a care in the world, right?

01:32How much of this can you act? I mean, you've scored three runs in three games. You can't hit the ball.

01:38You can't hit for power. You can't even get dudes on base. I mean, it's it to me. I think it's it's

01:44over before it even starts in that one.
