3. Dodgers-Brewers Postseason Blunder: Wild Play Breakdown

[07:00–16:45]

The Play:

• Dodgers had bases loaded, big opportunity. Max Muncie hits a ball to the wall.
• Brewers’ Sal Frelick makes an athletic play; the ball is bobbled and hits the wall.
• Multiple runners, especially Teoscar Hernandez at 3rd, are confused about whether to tag up.

Confusion Explained:

• Fundamentals Out the Window: The basic rule is to tag up as soon as the fielder touches the ball, even if it's a bobble.
  • “It's common knowledge that bases juiced, especially the runner on third...deep fly ball, you're not moving until the ball touches.” — Rich Davis (09:15)
• TV broadcast didn’t properly clarify the base running mistake.
  • “They sort of let Teoscar off the hook because the reality is, if I'm teaching little leaguers...you automatically run back to third base.” — Rich Davis (10:25)
  • “Seems like fundamentals are out of style.” — Danny G (09:15)

Umpires & Rare Play:

• Umps make correct call; confusion about force play at home.
  • “An 8-6-2 double play. They're saying the strangest double play in postseason history.” — Danny G (13:08)
• Sal Frelick’s athleticism and the rare sequence discussed.
  • “It was a perfect relay. And the stretch by the catcher...great presence of mind from Freelick.” — Danny G (16:18)

• “There are times...you’re watching everyone try to figure it out at the same time.” — Rich Davis (12:55)

Impact on Kids and Learning Fundamentals:

• Rich assigns parents homework: watch playoff games with their kids to teach “situational” baseball.
  • “I brought out a dry erase board...I feel like every parent owes it to their kid. If your kid's playing sports, you gotta watch and explain.” — Rich Davis (21:05)

---

• Should managers pull dominant pitchers right at the 100-pitch mark?
  • “Isn't that what you’re giving him all this money for — 100 pitches?” — Danny G (17:27)
  • “All I thought was, this could be Dave Roberts’ worst nightmare.” — Rich Davis (17:34)
• Post-game, Snell subtly voices he “was not tired.”

6. Shohei Ohtani’s Value, Even When Cold (35:24–37:23)

• Ohtani’s low batting average but is still being intentionally walked in big spots.
  • “Because you don’t want him to have his breakout moment against you.” — Jason (36:52)
• Analogy: a star receiver drawing double coverage opens up the offense for others.

---

7. Pop Culture, Parenting, and Sports Watching (20:23–22:34)

• Debating how sports knowledge is passed down across generations, the role of parents in teaching kids to watch the game, not just play it.
  • “There's a whole generation of kids even, like in professional sports today...they love playing...as far as watching them, they get updates on their phone.” — Danny G (20:42)

[Danny G]

Can't wait.

[Rich Davis]

Two quick things before he gets to some Dodgers, baseball, some playoffs, all that good stuff. I posted a really funny video at Rich Davis. That's subjective, so I've yet to drive in one. Have you had the huevos to get in a waymo?

[Danny G]

I have not.

[Rich Davis]

I feel like it's going to take me a minute. Not a whip.

[Danny G]

Out of all those little delivery robots roaming the streets of la.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Happy Birthday, Paulie Packages.

[Danny G]

They go rolling away. I'm like, look at Magic Screen.

[Jason]

I see one of those every evening right here in that crosswalk that goes.

[Patrick Mahomes]

To El Pollo Loco delivery for Iowa Sands.

[Rich Davis]

Is that what Pee Wee Herman's Conky is up to these days?

[Danny G]

Yeah, get out of my way, droid.

[Jason]

You guys, a couple seasons ago when we were in Phoenix, we had a chance to get in one of those waymos.

[Ed Helms]

Remember?

[Jason]

Rich was like, I'm not doing it.

[Rich Davis]

We were at one of our graduate hotel events. I saw that. I remember seeing it there. I bring it up because it's a really funny clip. This dude's in like a waymo with his girlfriend and there's a police stop and ahead. And the cops try to wave him, like, move. And he just start cracking up like, what do you want me to do? And you realize a self driving car can't acknowledge a cop waving you. And the cop's getting all frustrated, like, pull over. Move that way. And the guy's like, what do you want me to do? I saw a cop pull over a waymo for doing like an illegal U turn. And the cop was like, I can't write a ticket. What do you do? But Sam, imagine that a, a cop is trying to direct you, like, go to the right lane.

[Danny G]

I can't touch the steering wheel, man. This thing's controlling itself.

[Rich Davis]

What are you supposed to do? So I thought that was interesting. And our buddy Mercer, man, one of our most loyal good friends that we've.

[Danny G]

We'Ve known for years from Pittsburgh. What up, Mercer?

[Rich Davis]

He said if my calculations are correct, and he's the type of guy whose calculations I do trust.

[Danny G]

Does he have a TI82?

[Rich Davis]

He has a Mr. Professor.

[Danny G]

It's the little professor Texas instrument.

[Rich Davis]

He goes, my calculations are correct. 48 NBA players have had a free throw percentage last year. Over 80%. There's 450 roughly NBA players, meaning about 10% of NBA players had a free throw percentage over 80%. No way that kid hit 80. That would make him in the 10% of NBA free throw shooters.

[Danny G]

Rich sponsored a kid who hit 80% free shot free throw shots. So he has 160 bucks.

[Rich Davis]

I'm fine with it. I just, I just feel like there's no way.

[Danny G]

All right, so this hour, like we said, trivia, phone calls, interaction. But we gotta talk about the game last night we talked NFL, we talked how we thought baseball was still more exciting. It is post season. But what really, really pulled me in was that eight, six, two, double play again. Bases loaded. Bases loaded. Big opportunity for the Dodgers. I'm getting excited for you, Danny G. And Dodgers fans. And I don't, I never want to like jinx you or anybody's team for that matter. So I never like chime in, like, yo, bro, big moment. Dude, this could be it right now.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, Dan Byer. I got your brewers, by the way.

[Dan Beyer]

Thanks, Rich. I appreciate that. That's why I'm a Rich Davis guy.

[Rich Davis]

I was building.

[Danny G]

I didn't even get there yet. I was gonna say. And then Sal Frelich. Oh, Buyer. You had to be feeling that. But this guy made a play. Muncie hits a 404 foot blast with the bases juiced and sound free. Like, yo. His expressions are priceless in this John Boy.

[Rich Davis]

John Boy is lip. He already broke it down.

[Danny G]

Oh. Because his hair goes all over the place. He looks all confused. He has his look on his face like, what's going on?

[Rich Davis]

I think. I think.

[Danny G]

But he fires back so quickly, like it was such a cool moment.

[Rich Davis]

To paraphrase John Boy, I think it really was. Like, what the f just happened? Like, he didn't even know, like, what. What just went down.

[Danny G]

You see the adrenaline rushing through his face because, well, we.

[Rich Davis]

The viewer.

[Danny G]

I wasn't sure if he caught it on the flyer, if it hit the wall, but the umpires were quick enough and good enough to realize that the ball hit the wall. He brought it back in. It hit the wall, which means that it's in play.

[Rich Davis]

Glove, bobble, glove, catch, glove, wall, glove.

[Danny G]

Yeah. Now, to state the obvious, but not everybody knows there's people picking up sports and baseball all the time. If he would have bobbled it and caught it, yeah, that's an out. But he bobbled it. It hit the wall, then he caught it. So that ball's in play. The umpires picked up on it, the runners, the Dodgers were confused, which made everybody else sort of confused.

[Rich Davis]

There. There should have been no confusion. And again, I'm not saying I'm the expert, but sort of. I mean, we all played ball. I coach. I play rec league softball this year.

[Danny G]

Seems like fundamentals are out of style.

[Rich Davis]

It's common knowledge that bases juiced, especially the runner on third. You may give the benefit of the doubt of the guy on second or first. Like, maybe he might try to get a jump on a ball off the wall or something. But third base, if you're a third base in Little League, in rec softball, deep fly ball, you're not moving base. You're there the minute the ball touches. And that's another thing that people should know. He could bobble it a hundred times. The minute it touches his hand or glove or person, you could run. You could run. That is when the tag up happens.

[Danny G]

Yeah, that's tagging up.

[Rich Davis]

And Tioscar Hernandez is On third, the minute the ball was bobbled initially, that's when the tag up could start to occur to prevent someone. Kavino from maybe bobbling at 10 times and then.

[Danny G]

But I think that's what made it confusing. I think we're all assuming that he was tagging up or, you know, I was forgetting who was on third.

[Rich Davis]

Did get lost in the moment.

[Danny G]

He had to have. He had to have. Because you're assuming.

[Patrick Mahomes]

You're like, wait, how did they force.

[Danny G]

Him out at home? How did he not tag up in that moment?

[Rich Davis]

The TV broadcast team did a great job explaining it. Explaining it. What they didn't do was they didn't.

[Danny G]

Talk about the brain fart that Tay Oscar.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, they sort of let Te Oscar off the hook because the reality is, if I'm teaching little Leaguers ponyball kids.

[Danny G]

This, you automatically run back to third base because the ball's in the air. You don't know what's going to happen. He could have moonwalked in at home as soon as the ball hit Felix glove.

[Jason]

So you guys are saying they weren't critical on the TV broadcast of.

[Rich Davis]

They said I let Teos off the.

[Jason]

Hook, if you ask me, because I was trapped in the 101 freeway in traffic on my way home at that point. And so I'm listening to AM570LA Sports Radio, our Dodger affiliate and home of the Dodgers and the ass they were.

[Dan Beyer]

It was a long creditation.

[Jason]

Yeah, it's a long. I should. Dodger Radio, audio network, whatever.

[Rich Davis]

What are you going to shout out, Petro? Some money next. What are you going to think?

[Jason]

Well, Petros loves our show, but it was. It was so confusing to try to picture what they were. The picture they were painting. I was so confused. I didn't know what was going on. And then they said blunder on the bass paths and they were really critical of Teo. So then I get home and I watch the replay and then you guys told me, yeah, they weren't so critical on the telecast, so it was confusing.

[Danny G]

I don't think they even mentioned that Teoscar Hernandez didn't tag up properly because. Cause that's why he was forced out in the first place.

[Rich Davis]

I'm a big fan of you. Make the call. Like I follow some like TikTok and Instagram pages where it's like, ball bounces here, this happens. What's the right call?

[Danny G]

I think they said chaos on the base. Base paths or something like that. Mayhem on the base paths.

[Rich Davis]

That's it.

[Danny G]

Yeah, that's the Only reference they made, and it made everyone. I think, the viewer confused. Well, hey, what happened there? And I think that, you know, what could have happened, because I saw some of the back and forth and jumping around at Hernandez did. He probably assumed it was a home run, started doing a slow jog home, realized, oh, wait, I got to go back and tag, and then got caught up and couldn't get back in time, was forced out at home.

[Rich Davis]

Maybe he initially was going to tag, then started jogging, then went back and then went back. Like, maybe. Either way, it was bad base running. It was a weird opportunity that the brewers in that moment, I'm like, this might be their golden.

[Danny G]

So the obvious thing is what should have been or could have been a grand slam was snagged back, pulled back in by Sal Freelick, and. And turned it into a double play. Unconventional.

[Rich Davis]

Honestly, it should have just truthfully, if you want to know the truth, it should have been sacrifice fly. A sacrifice. But then since the ball bounced, it wasn't a sac fly.

[Danny G]

Well, okay, yeah, correct. So. But they should have scored a run, put it that way.

[Rich Davis]

It was a force out. That's the thing. It was a force out at home and then third, because everyone was just so confused. And in those moments, it's really. It's a fun. It's a fun thing because you're watching everyone try to figure it out at the same time.

[Danny G]

An 8, 6, 2 double play. They're saying the strangest double play in postseason history. And it really is. They come back from break and they're like, well, if you just joined us. Truly something you probably never seen before.

[Dan Beyer]

There's also something that kind of screwed Tay Oscar, even though he was the one at fault, because it was a force play. Like, there was no way they would have been able to make the tag in that scenario. So, like, you can stretch and all they had to do is there was no tag needed.

[Danny G]

Right.

[Dan Beyer]

If you actually were doing it in a situation like that, I feel you would have been safe if you actually had to make a tag in that scenario.

[Rich Davis]

But again, because there's some confusion, it wasn't a catch. It was. Forget he even touched it. Because since it hit the wall, you could forget that the center field didn't even touch it. Assume it just went off the wall. He didn't go home. So since he didn't go home, if that throw gets the home plate before TE Oscar does, it's a force out.

[Dan Beyer]

Yes.

[Rich Davis]

And simply put, I think the fact that the center fielder bobbled it off the wall Then caught it. That's the confusion. You should really just look at it as a ball that went off the wall. Yes, a ball that went off the wall that Tioscar didn't beat. A throw home and the home. The throw that went home.

[Danny G]

And you were thinking that was going to haunt the Dodgers. Because I thought momentum would carry the brewers after that. That was such a big moment.

[Dan Beyer]

There's a good side angle down the third baseline where he's tagging, sees the ball hit the glove, takes off, then hesitates after seeing it in the air, goes back, it's then caught, then the relay and then the relay and they nail him at home.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, a confusing moment. Now, listen, if it's a regular, maybe you give him a free pass. But we all know. I mean, maybe we don't all know once the ball touches.

[Danny G]

He should know.

[Rich Davis]

Defender. Yeah, he's a major. The minute the ball touches a defender on a fly ball, that's when the tag could start to occur. It's not on the catch, it's on the touch.

[Dan Beyer]

This may be overkill. Do you need a center field dump?

[Danny G]

Huh?

[Rich Davis]

I mean, we already got extra umps.

[Dan Beyer]

Lines for fair and foul.

[Rich Davis]

I think it's such a rare occurrence. I don't think so.

[Dan Beyer]

Yeah, maybe so. But in that scenario, the broadcast was saying there was confusion on what the umpire signaled that there wasn't. That maybe if you're looking at that point for an actual call, maybe if there was an ump out there, they wouldn't have been able to make the call. Who knows? But in the broadcast, where I think they were just as confused as everybody on what just happened, and you have to talk about it in a split second instance, one of the things that they pointed out was that they didn't think that the players got guidance from the umpires on what really happened.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, that is true. And isn't it wild? It happens in every sport. We all agree. Who? Who? When they say Murphy's Law, who are they talking about?

[Danny G]

Daniel Murphy.

[Rich Davis]

Daniel Murphy. I thought so. Isn't it wild how that type of play.

[Jason]

Not Dale Murphy.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, it might have been. Yeah. Dale Murphy's Law. That's what I am. Yeah, that's what it is.

[Danny G]

Yeah. But after Daniel had that mean playoff run in 2015. Yeah, he took it over.

[Rich Davis]

Isn't it crazy to think that there's 162 games schedule, thousands of games played, and it. And that's reserved for a crucial situation in a playoff game? Like that play doesn't happen in game 62 for the Pirates and Guardians. It happens in game one.

[Danny G]

And by the way, it took a really great relay to get him right. It was a perfect relay. And the stretch by the catcher. Great stretch by the catcher, but great presence of mind from Freelick to get it in nice and quick and out. And we're like, wow, man, that's wild. So then the other controversy is after that, like I said, I was pulled in after that. I'm like, oh, man, this is gonna be a wild game.

[Dan Beyer]

Just one if you're gonna move off from the play. The other deal is then the. The thing that really screwed the doctors then you had a force play at third.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Because then that runner was like, what's happening?

[Dan Beyer]

Yeah. So there was that domino as well. So, like, I. I mean, I was just, wow. The Dodgers completely got screwed and I was, you know, I'm pulling for the other side. But in that scenario, like, I don't know what you. What do you do?

[Danny G]

Well, the umpires had it right. They had to explain to Dave Roberts. They had to explain everybody what was going on. But the umpires got it right. So props to them in that moment for having the wherewithal to understand, you know, exactly what had happened. They got it right. And then the other big story that we were all texting back and forth on was like, do you leave Snell in Dudes in the Zone? Right.

[Rich Davis]

I thought, isn't that what you're giving.

[Danny G]

Him all this money for 100 pitches.

[Jason]

But looked like he still had some in the tank, bro.

[Rich Davis]

I was talking about how in the horror movies, the jump scares. I. In my mind, it was a, like a Final Destination thing. Like, oh, the Dodgers, like, oh, we thought that was going to burn him. I thought when Dave Roberts was sitting there and they show you, he was like biting his fingernails, just, you know, look in stress, knowing, like, all eyes are on what is Dave Roberts going to do. Blake Snell wheeling and dealing. The minute he hit 100 pitches, I was like, all right, 100 pitches. And I believe, like, the next pitch he got out of it. What do you throw a 101, 102, something like that when he gets out of that eighth inning. And then the announcers say, oh, he's giving everyone handshakes and hugs. His night's over. All I thought was, this could be Dave Roberts worst nightmare. There's playoff baseball where guys throwing a one hitter, 10 strikeouts, dealing, wheeling, no one could touch Blake Snell. I think he leave weak ass ground balls, soft pop ups like he is.

[Danny G]

Unless he Says to you I'm out of gas.

[Rich Davis]

And even at the end and after after the game Blake Snell.

[Danny G]

This is for all the Tostitos Blake Snell.

[Rich Davis]

You know, I'm not saying he there was no sneak this at Dave Roberts but when asked I don't know if you saw by the announcer post game he's like, well, I just did what the coach did. And notice that like he was very clear I was not tired. I could have kept going. Hey, I did what coach said and I trust him.

[Jason]

And don't forget they've been very careful of Roki's army. He yeah, he's the new hot closer but he's coming off a surgery. You could arrested him and it would have given you a chance for the brewers to not see him yet. So I yeah, I but where I really was pacing badly in my living room is when Roberts I saw Mouth Trine in and I'm like, no, Roki gets in this jam. Let him get out of the jam. Trine in this past season has been.

[Rich Davis]

Off in that moment. Danbire I was really pulling for you.

[Danny G]

Really. Thanks Rich. I bet Rich text you as kisser.

[Dan Beyer]

I wasn't on this group text. I don't know for you, Dan. Rich was just texting me solo. Yeah, that's what the type of guy is. That's why I'm a Rich Davis guy.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, you know, my kids though were really like they were involved watching. It's fun when your kids start to really understand what's going on. In fact, today is we have a rain out for my son's baseball practice. It actually rained in Southern California.

[Danny G]

Weird. All day. Yeah. Cold rainy day, saturated.

[Rich Davis]

It's really like a nice well needed thunderstorm last night. So I texted the parents. I think this is a fair request. I said in lieu of practice being canceled, I want everyone to watch at.

[Danny G]

Least you said in lieu. Good one, man.

[Rich Davis]

Makes it sound official, right?

[Danny G]

It makes it sound official in lieu.

[Rich Davis]

Of practice being canceled.

[Danny G]

Did you throw in per our last conversation in there just to I hope.

[Rich Davis]

This note finds you well.

[Danny G]

Did you end with like a circle back?

[Rich Davis]

A little circle back? I said you gotta get hit him.

[Danny G]

With all the goodness. Kindly respond. Yeah. Ooh. Kindly respond.

[Jason]

Hope you've been well.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

I said I'd like every parent to watch at least one inning of tonight's nlcs. So you're and explain what's situationally going on to your kids. Because I feel like the more and more my kids watch with me, that's how you really learn the game. Football, baseball, anything. Like.

[Danny G]

There's a whole generation of kids even, like in professional sports today. Cam Scatterboo announced recently that he never watched football ever. Growing up, he played football.

[Rich Davis]

He didn't know the teams were in what conferences. And yeah, that was.

[Danny G]

I noticed that with a lot of little kids, they love playing these games and playing the sports, but as far as watching them, they get updates on their phone. They're good with that. They don't care about watching them as much.

[Rich Davis]

My. My daughter's 8 and my son's 5. Just for reference, recently I broke out a try erase board. And you might think this is a little. I brought. I broke out a dry erase board and I drew like a football field. And they know math enough. I go, all right, so you get four chances to get 10 yards. Let's say the running back, the guy carry the ball, gets three yards. Now it's second and minus three, second and seven. Correct. Like, if no one explains it to you, it takes longer to pick up. I feel like every parent owes it to their kid. If your kid's playing sports, if your kids playing peewee football, basketball, they've got.

[Danny G]

To show an interest too, though, man, I tell you, I never busted out that to my daughter until she started cheerleading because she had no interest whatsoever in this stuff.

[Rich Davis]

I'm just saying I feel like there's no harm in telling your. If you're a coach, tell your parents, hey, watch. You know, if your kids playing flag football, you might say, hey, watch the packers game for a quarter on.

[Danny G]

You know, it's funny or something.

[Rich Davis]

Just watch the game or something.

[Danny G]

It's a great suggestion, and it feels like an obvious one. It's not a big ass.

[Rich Davis]

But then you almost wonder, like, what weenie family's not watching? Like, am I really giving someone an assignment?

[Danny G]

Like, weenie la. Dad could explain what happened last night if that were to happen again, you.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Know, like, dad, what happened there?

[Danny G]

Well, son, I think model. No, the Oscar Hernandez got a little. You know what? I'm not sure because that was a confusing play. Yeah, you have to assume that they. They even know.

[Dan Beyer]

I'd only be afraid in Rich's case with a football that my son would be like, I don't want to do math. I don't want to watch football. You know, there's too much.

[Rich Davis]

He got four yards, buddy. What is it? Second and ten, minus four, six. You got a pal. I bribe him with Mr. Beast toys. That's what I died Mr. As well. We'll solve everything. All right. Well then coming up, we're going to give away some prizes. We'll bribe you here on CNR. You want a Mr. Beast toy? No. You want to Cavino and Rich Nerf football? That's the prize up for grabs.

[Narrator (Hell in Heaven Podcast)]

The new podcast Hell in Heaven. Two young Americans move to the Costa Rican jungle to start over. But one will end up dead, the other tried for murder not once.

[Bridget Todd]

People went wild.

[Narrator (Hell in Heaven Podcast)]

Not twice, stunned, but three times. John and Anne Bender are rich and attractive and they're devoted to each other. They create a nature reserve and build a spectacular circular home high on the top of a hill. But little by little, their dream starts to crumble and our couple retreat from reality.

[Danny G]

They lose it. They actually lose it.

[Ed Helms]

They sort of went nuts.

[Narrator (Hell in Heaven Podcast)]

Until one night, everything spins out of control. Listen to Hell in Heaven on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

[Ed Helms]

Hey, it's Ed Helms. And welcome back to snafu, my podcast about history's greatest screw ups. On our new season, we're bringing you a new snafu. Every single episode.

[Bridget Todd]

32 lost nuclear weapons. You're like, wait, stop.

[WebMD Announcer]

What?

[Dan Beyer]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

Ernie Shackleton sounds like a solid 70s.

[Ed Helms]

Basketball player who still wore knee pads.

[Danny G]

Yes.

[Ed Helms]

It's gonna be a whole lot of history, a whole lot of funny, and.

[Rich Davis]

A whole lot of guests.

[Ed Helms]

The great Paul Scheer made me feel good. I'm like, oh, wow, Angela and Jenna, I am so psyched you're here.

[WebMD Announcer]

What was that like for you to.

[Bridget Todd]

Soft launch into the show?

[Ed Helms]

Sorry, Jenna. I'll be asking the questions today.

[WebMD Announcer]

I forgot whose podcast we were doing.

[Ed Helms]

Nick Kroll. I hope this story is good enough to get you to toss that sandwich.

[Danny G]

So let's, let's, let's see how it goes.

[Ed Helms]

Listen to season four of SNAFU with Ed Helms on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Danny G]

Yeah. Covino and Rich live from the Fox Sports Radio studio. For over 40 years, Tire Rack has been helping customers find the right tires for how, what and where they drive, ship fast and free, backed by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. Tire rack.com the way tire buying should be. Again, we're Cavino and Rich and we can't stand the rain against our window. I'm enjoying it. It's raining out here on the west side, but traffic builds up and people forget how to drive and it's kind of cold, but it's got that Halloweeny, spooky season sort of vibe going on.

[Rich Davis]

It washes away all the crap on the sidewalks. And let me tell you, I'm doing construction in my yard and there's dust everywhere, and I feel like I got a nice little purified cleanse. By the way, as we get into Mahomes trivia in a second, our buddy Robin San Antonio hit us up and he said, little quick trivia. Besides not wanting to face Danny G's Dodgers, why would Mariner fans possibly want to face the brewers as a World Series opponent? Has to do with some history. And I didn't connect the dots. Did you, Daniel?

[Jason]

The Pilots, right?

[Rich Davis]

The Milwaukee brewers were once a Seattle pilot. So if they faced off in the World Series, it would be the Seattle Mariners and previously the Seattle Pilots. So Seattle series.

[Danny G]

Speaking of them, I hope you had a Jorge Polanco sort of week or sort of night. The first player in MLB history to have a go ahead hit in the fifth inning or later in three consecutive postseason games. So props to Jorge Polanco. Now, speaking of games, it's time to play Showtime Mahomes trivia.

[Rich Davis]

Let's go. The mostly lovable Patrick Mahomes.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Truth is, I want everybody to love me, not just the reference.

[Danny G]

It's time for some NFL trivia.

[Bridget Todd]

I'm here.

[Rich Davis]

I'm here. Yes, we know you're here.

[Patrick Mahomes]

All right, Patrick Mahomes here to play Showtime Holmes trivia.

[Jason]

All right, FSR security walking our broke Patrick into the main studio.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Oh, yeah.

[Jason]

Hey, Pat, did you hear earlier on the show, Patrick, all of a sudden they're on your jock about your stats.

[Rich Davis]

Looking good.

[Patrick Mahomes]

By the way, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, I'm playing big again. All right. Hey, is it me or Mayfield for mvp? But by the way, I just want to say showboy, showboy. Life of a showboy. Mahomes trivia.

[Jason]

Yeah, I don't think so.

[Patrick Mahomes]

By the way, I also want to say, since I'm on Fox Sports radio, Brian Branch is Buns. We had our way with the Lions and Danny G. Your Chiefs are going down this week, so his Raiders.

[Jason]

Your Chiefs. You're right. Your Chiefs are going down.

[Patrick Mahomes]

No, I said your Raiders are cheeks.

[Danny G]

That's what I said.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Cheeks. Raiders going down. Let's go.

[Jason]

Can't wait to watch Max Crosby chase you around the field. All right, let's meet the contestants. 25 time winner, Rich Davis right over there.

[Rich Davis]

Let's go.

[Jason]

22 time champion, Dan Byer.

[Dan Beyer]

Hello, hello.

[Jason]

Nine time winner, Spotty boy over here to my right. And is your microphone work?

[WebMD Announcer]

It is.

[Danny G]

Oh, there it is, Spot.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Looks like. Like a broke Kelsey brother.

[Danny G]

All right, that's enough.

[Jason]

And looking to win a CNR prize on the studio line. Sam in Kentucky was the first through. What up, Sam?

[Rich Davis]

What up?

[Danny G]

How's it going, guys?

[Rich Davis]

What's up, buddy?

[Jason]

What do you do for a living there in Kentucky?

[Rich Davis]

I sell swimsuits, actually, some scrunch buckets. Oh.

[Danny G]

How does one get into that business?

[Dan Beyer]

Speedo. If any of y' all need a.

[Rich Davis]

Speedo brief, let me know. Oh, yeah.

[Jason]

Here are the rules for Showtime Mahomes NFL trivia. The first contestant with two correct answers is the champ. If there's a tie, we have a tiebreaker question. Your name is your buzzer, but you do have to wait until all three pop possible answers are read. If there's two wrong answers in a Row. We move on to the next question. Are you ready?

[Rich Davis]

Let's go.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Let's get it on real quick, though. Is this Sam, right? Yeah. I'll take one of those swimsuits in extra long, please.

[Danny G]

Okay.

[Patrick Mahomes]

If they come in that size.

[Rich Davis]

Thanks.

[Patrick Mahomes]

All right, I'm here. Show blame of homes.

[Jason]

Stick to football, buddy.

[Patrick Mahomes]

And I blame T Swizzle.

[Rich Davis]

Who are you getting that for, by the way? Old Redwood. Your pal Travis. Kelsey?

[Patrick Mahomes]

No, for me.

[Rich Davis]

Oh.

[Patrick Mahomes]

All right, T Swizzle for all the halftime drama. But this headliner was one of the first popular music acts to perform at super bowl halftime in 1988. Was it A, Patti LaBelle, B, Chubby Checker, or C, New Kids on the Block?

[Rich Davis]

Rich.

[Jason]

Rich.

[Rich Davis]

I gave you a chance, Sam. Chubby Checker.

[Jason]

Yes.

[Ed Helms]

Bam.

[Jason]

Rich on the board immediately. Yeah, Sam, just buzzing with your name, you know.

[Patrick Mahomes]

By the way, fun fact. Chubby Checker and the Rockettes at Jack Murphy stadium, San Diego, January 88. NKOTB was 91. Patty was 95.

[Rich Davis]

I only know that Danny G. Because recently my wife asked who was the first super bowl halftime act. And we actually realized that it wasn't until the 80s there was a lot of marching bands and low level acts. Like, the whole hubbub of the halftime show is like, 80s till now. So just so you know.

[Jason]

All right, Rich on the board, we move to round two.

[Patrick Mahomes]

All right, Patrick Mahomes here, Showboy Mahomes trivia. Which US State has produced the most NFL hall of Famers? Is it A, Mississippi, B, California, or C, Texas?

[Rich Davis]

Sam, they were giving California.

[Jason]

Oh, you got it.

[Danny G]

California.

[Jason]

All right, Sam buzzed in with his name. California.

[Danny G]

No.

[Jason]

Sorry, buddy. Anybody for the steel? Buyer for the steel?

[Dan Beyer]

Texas.

[Jason]

Yes.

[Danny G]

Right.

[Patrick Mahomes]

With an impressive 30.

[Jason]

Yeah. Your home state. All right, so Rich and Beyer on the board as we go to round three.

[Patrick Mahomes]

All right, Patrick Mahomes, I'm here. And what was I once quoted saying about greatness? A, you can't be afraid to be great. B, for Chris Jones to truly be great, he needs to get a motor like Max Crosby and not quit on plays. Or C, to be great, you must fully dedicate yourself to. To the craft.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, Sam. I mean, Sam, I'm giving you a chance.

[Jason]

I mean, they're like an O line. They're like an O line. You a huge hole.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, Sam, it's multiple choice. Say your name and pick A, B or C. We're. We're trying to give you a prize. You seem like a nice guy.

[Danny G]

Sam.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Hey, hey.

[Jason]

No, Rich. Rich.

[Rich Davis]

C. Game Over.

[Jason]

Let's go. Yes. Rich is the winner.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Someone sounds aggravated.

[Rich Davis]

Sam, go back to selling Speedos.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Yeah, Sam, extra long for me, right?

[Danny G]

Send one for me and Britt. He's bulge gazing.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Yeah, thanks. This guy's a chubby checker. Over here.

[Jason]

We have.

[Bridget Todd]

We have.

[Rich Davis]

Geez, that is excellent.

[Jason]

We appreciate you playing in the state of Kentucky. Thank you.

[Rich Davis]

Yo, thanks, man.

[Danny G]

Yes.

[Patrick Mahomes]

I've said to be great, you must fully dedicate yourself to the craft. And thank you. Can't wait to beat Danny G's Raiders. Let's go.

[Rich Davis]

Thank you.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Patrick Mahomes.

[Jason]

Yeah. Chiefs only have one win more than the Raiders.

[Patrick Mahomes]

It's anybody's season. Anybody season, but it's going to be ours.

[Danny G]

All right.

[Rich Davis]

Thank you, brother.

[Jason]

Thank you.

[Rich Davis]

Now it's time to go to our pal and yours for an update. Dan byer. What's up, DB?

[Dan Beyer]

Dodgers and brewers getting ready for game two of the NLCS tonight in Milwaukee, 8 o' clock Eastern Time. You'll see it again on TBS. Dodgers up one. Oh, it's Yoshinobu Yamamoto against Freddie Peralta. ALCS resumes tomorrow in Seattle. Mariners up to on the Blue Jays. Shane Bieber goes for Toronto against George Kirby. Tomorrow's game three can be seen on Fox Sports 1. Some news from the NBA as NBA insider Mark Stein says the Mavericks have given head coach Jason Kidd a multi year contract extension, while Bucks forward Yannis Antetokounmpo says he'd like to finish his career playing professional basketball in Greece. In college basketball, UConn is the preseason number one in the women's AP top 25 college hoops poll. South Carol was second. Those two schools were the only schools to receive first place votes. Top five rounded out by UCLA, Texas and LSU. Bill Callahan, no longer a member of the Titans coaching staff. The offensive line coach left with his son Brian, who was fired yesterday as the team's head coach. Ravens released corner C.J. gardner Johnson, while Bears had Coach Ben Johnson says wide receiver D.J. moore is day to day after suffering a groin injury last night. Moore stayed overnight in D.C. but has since returned to Chicago. Guys, back to you.

[Rich Davis]

Db. Thanks, buddy.

[Danny G]

Thanks, db.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, Danny G. Question for you tonight. Game two obviously starts in about an hour and a half. Show how Tani's betting 138 in the postseason. But even last night they did point out he's felt on the field. It's almost like if a running back is not running for a lot of yards, but because the threat of him. Yeah, it's opening. It's Opening up, you know, that was Aaron Judge.

[Danny G]

They'd be all over him with criticism.

[Rich Davis]

I know, but what I'm saying is, my analogy would be if some people.

[Danny G]

Are immune to criticism, and you could say credit to his demeanor and how he carries himself and the excellence that we expect from him, but, well.

[Jason]

And he started off the postseason with two home runs right off the bat, and then it's gone downhill. Obviously, they've been pitching him tight inside, and then he's been reaching at bad pitches.

[Danny G]

And I think Shohei earned the pass because we know how great he is.

[Rich Davis]

But my. My point is the same way. Like I said, you could double a receiver, give me, like, an elite receiver.

[Danny G]

If.

[Rich Davis]

If Justin Jefferson gets double teamed, what you're doing is while he's may catch three passes for 38 yards, and you're like, yo, what a bunk week for Justin Jefferson. He may have opened up the passing game for everyone else because he warrants that attention. Like last night, they had a walk Ohtani, and then Mookie ends up walking with the bases loaded, and there's your winning run.

[Jason]

Well, we've seen him intentionally walked twice in two big moments now, Rich. And it's funny because Brenda asked me last night, she said, he's so cold at the plate, why would they walk him? And I said, because you don't want him to have his breakout moment against you.

[Danny G]

Right now, he's the number one guy you can't let beat you. Right?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. So I'm saying, even though his numbers do look bunk, not making excuses for Shohei. I'm just saying, even when he's struggling, the impact of what he could do is still felt. And you saw that last night in the late innings when you're right, they had an open base, they walked him. They walked a 138 postseason cold hitter because he is Shohei Ohtani.

[Jason]

Tonight would be a good night to go yard for Ohtani.

[Danny G]

Oh, yeah. He could turn it around at any second.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

And that's. That's just it. I think Danny G. Nailed it, too. You don't want to give him any opportunity to get hot now.

[Rich Davis]

Coming up, I do want to talk about. Not Dodger Stadium where they're playing again tonight, Miller Park, Millie. Okay. There's a funny clip circulating on social media, and it's from an influencer who happens to be a Dodgers fan. And he said he gives a funny review of Milwaukee. And I'll be honest, I've been there, felt the same way. And I want to talk about your experiences visiting other stadiums and cities when it comes to sports. We'll wrap up the show with that next right here. Kavin Onrich Mille Wauke.

Sam, I was just showing Cavino a video clip, your social media feed, which used to be, you know, sprinkled with like, you know, let's be honest, good looking women, some funny videos, people falling sports updates, all the things that a grown man for the most part has in his algorithm. Just like fake stuff now. Fake people.

[Danny G]

The people were already fake in that superficial way. Now they're fake. Fake.

[Jason]

I'm gonna tell you right now, Milwaukee are awesome people. The nicest people I think I've ever met. I had a guy give me a free 5050 raffle sticker just because like.

[Danny G]

They want to make sure you come.

[Jason]

Back and leave a good Google review from Milwaukee.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Jason]

And I respect that.

[Dan Beyer]

I love that.

[Danny G]

This place is awesome.

[Rich Davis]

I got a seat and then I got.

[Danny G]

Let's go. My dog. What's up, yo?

[Rich Davis]

Let me tell you, you know what it is?

[Danny G]

It's like, it's like being with a really smoking hot chick. And like an average looking chick. I'm talking physical, right? In bed, the hot chick just. She has this attitude of, you're lucky to be here.

[Rich Davis]

I don't need to do much.

[Danny G]

I don't need to do much. The quote unquote, average looking chick is going to try a lot harder to impress. And that's Milwaukee. And that's the truth. Because they believe in hospitality.

[Rich Davis]

They want Dan Buyer. I'm going to tell Dan Buyer you called Milwaukee the fat chick.

[Danny G]

I said average chick.

[Rich Davis]

I didn't say the fat chick.

[Danny G]

No, no. You thought fat chick sounds hot. I said average chick. I'm going to say sounds hot. I'm saying they're trying harder to bring you back because. Because as far as what we are accustomed to think, as far as great destinations, you're thinking California. You're thinking New York City. You're thinking all the Miami, Florida, all the hotspots. You're not thinking Millewake, when in reality. Yeah. They're happy to have you. And it's a great place to be rich. You and I have experienced it firsthand as we travel. All the super bowl destinations.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

The bigger cities are the ones that are like, yeah, whatever.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, trust me, Miami, it's all.

[Danny G]

The smaller cities that are super pumped to have you.

[Rich Davis]

Miami and Scottsdale and always deliver. But when it comes to the other ones, I would Say the worst super bowl was in New York. The worst and the best one we went to that. We were like, blown away. Indianapolis, the best, because it was like they were. They were so excited to roll out the red carpet. We saw a baseball All Star game. We went to Kansas City. I remember having great barbecue. The hospitality was fantastic. Everyone was really kind. I think exploring and going to different stadiums will give you that impression. In fact, I agree with this Dodgers fan. For my brother's bachelor party back in the day, he wanted to do a couple baseball stadiums. So we did Wrigley and then drove up to Milwaukee. I was blown away by how when you go to downtown Milwaukee, there's all these bars that have specials like cheese curds and a beer and this and that. And if you buy a beer or like an appetizer, they'll give you a ticket. And that ticket is good for, like these little trams and little buses that will drive around and bring you to the stadium so you don't have to drive, Worry about drinking and driving. Like, like Milwaukee Brewers, I would say it's a top five experience I've had at another stadium.

[Danny G]

How about recently, you and I with our buddy Jaime Tavares? Our buddy Jaime took us to see an Athletics game in Sacramento. As you guys know, they're playing in Sacramento now, but at a minor league ballpark. The Sacramento River Cats.

[Rich Davis]

That was awesome.

[Danny G]

They had a bunch of old people, like, there were the welcoming committee. So happy to have you there. Like, hey, young timer, welcome to the Mud Cat Stadium. You're a Yankees fan. Welcome. They're just so happy to have you there. That is such a, like, like mind blasting experience. Because you're so used to rude behavior. Because here in la. Yeah, whatever. Come on in. Get out of here. Where's your ticket? New York, bigger cities. The same thing that when you experience this, it's so refreshing. So we had that experience just recently. Rich, like, wow, what a wonderful, wonderful time. People are actually really nice.

[Jason]

It's a treat.

[Danny G]

Culture shock.

[Jason]

Yeah, it's a treat for them. And we've, we've heard musicians say this, that sometimes they go play in smaller places and that's where they really enjoy their concert the most because the fans are so appreciative that you came here, you came to our, to our county.

[Danny G]

And they want to leave a good impression on you. It's like, like I said, it really is the way the hot chick behaves as opposed to the girl who's just, you know, excited to be with you.

[Rich Davis]

I'll tell you this. I still think it's cool to see something in Madison Square Garden. I've been to a Notre Dame football game. There's something still special about, you know, that's college football. South Bend, middle of the country. Like, that was a dope experience.

[Jason]

I don't think it takes away from the hotspots. No, I think just a different kind of experience.

[Rich Davis]

You're always going to have different experiences.

[Danny G]

Like there.

[Rich Davis]

There are times like I'm going to get. I'm going to get ribbed for this one. Know what? I don't enjoy Wrigley. I've been there and I feel like. Because I feel like Wrigley because it's such a legacy and such a. Of legendary, you know, the ivy on the wall, Cubbies. It's one of the oldest stadiums, I think that they haven't done a good job of like keeping up with food.

[Danny G]

And, you know, here's the feeling. The feeling is this the. It's. It's. You're lucky to be there versus we're lucky to have you. Yeah, right. Like, if you're in Wrigley, you're lucky to be there.

[Rich Davis]

Let's go to Jason.

[Danny G]

But if you're in Miller park, we're lucky to have you.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Happy. Thanks for coming.

[Danny G]

It's just that sort of mentality that makes it so different.

[Rich Davis]

Jason, real quick. I know we got a roll soon. What's up, buddy?

[Danny G]

Hey, how you guys doing? Real quick. I had these people, these two ladies from Green Bay come in my bar. They're there for. Here for the banana, the balloon fiesta.

[Jason]

They gave me their names, numbers, information.

[Danny G]

They want me to go see.

[Jason]

Green Bay Packer game with them.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, listen, it's smaller town people. There's a town.

[Danny G]

It exists. Yeah, it exists. You just have to go to the right places.

[Rich Davis]

That's why I was Sam so kind. He's a small town boy.

[Danny G]

No, it's true. Listen, you cannot find like 67 cent chicken wings anywhere near here.

[Rich Davis]

Like in the Midwest, there's still like.

[Danny G]

Wing Wednesday nights and you get.

[Rich Davis]

How much are they?

[Danny G]

67 cents.

[Rich Davis]

67.

[Danny G]

67, good one.

[Rich Davis]

But is that a good deal? Like, is that you cannot find chicken.

[Danny G]

Wings for like 80, 60 to 80 cents each. And if you're not piecing this together again, a Dodgers fan, Willie Prince, Just a Dodgers fan.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

Had a culture shock experience because everyone at Miller park was super kind to him. As opposed to Dodgers fans ripping your jersey off.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Now, I'll be honest, making fun of you the whole day there are better experiences than others. And if you want to share at Covianon Ritual, see you guys manana. Until then, Ariba Dare she baby see.

[Danny G]

You in the promised land.

[Rich Davis]

Goodbye.
