And we're also going to tell you about a purchase we made a full NFL Week 8 recap.

[Chris Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

But we're wrapping up your phone calls and your thoughts. It was a crazy game. It got so crazy. Last night, they talked about position players coming into pitch. I jokingly said, dude, bring Hideo Nomo back out. He threw out the first pitch last night. And then there was other people online saying, yo, Sandy Koufax is going to pitch Hideo.

[Chris Covino]

No, more like Hideo. No mo carbs. Jeez, you see that guy?

[Rich Davis]

He looked different from the last time. He looked like Kirk and Danny G off the air. You were saying something about how no one's even mentioned Kershaw. I mean, Scherzer or Glass. Now the two starters, because it felt so.

[Chris Covino]

Didn't they pitch last week?

[Rich Davis]

Right, exactly. Exactly. So it was a roller coaster of a game, and we're riding off the high, and we're wrapping it up with Baker in Illinois. You're on the Covino and Rich Show.

[Chris Covino]

What's up, Baker?

[Patrick Mahomes]

Hey, what's up, cool cats?

[Chris Covino]

What's up, man?

[Patrick Mahomes]

So I watched that whole game last night just because my stepson is a Dodgers fan and I had to work this morning. And I kept thinking, with all those warning track outs, man, if these guys.

[Chris Covino]

Were on roids still or if it.

[Rich Davis]

Just happened earlier, those would have been out.

[Chris Covino]

Well, you know, I have buddies that, you know, go to a lot of Dodgers game season ticket holders, and they're saying that so many of those shots that, you know, out here in la, the temperature changes quick. That's the weird thing about living in the Valley. And it could be 90 degrees and then be 60. It could be 60 in the morning, you're chilly. When you wake up, you put on a hoodie, and then by lunchtime, it's 95. So temperatures change. And three or four of those would have been home runs.

[Rich Davis]

Agreed.

[Chris Covino]

It's just how it is. What's up, db?

[Spot (Producer)]

Question for you guys, because I don't think anybody's really talking about it, but what did you think about the umpire call where then Bo Ba Shetz called out because they thought it was a walk. They thought it was a ball.

[Chris Covino]

That was. That was dicey. There were some. Also, there was a few home plate umpire, like, hesitation calls, like he almost was on a little delay sometimes. Like Leslie Nielsen and Naked Gun.

[Odoo Advertiser]

Yeah. Strike.

[Spot (Producer)]

I thought it was a really good point that John Smoltz made at the time and saying, because I hit, then followed. But he said Glasnow would not have pitched that way if the situation was different. So he's saying, like, you can't assume that change the whole. Yeah, he comes up and gets a hit in the run, scores. However, there was such confusion on It. And we've seen stuff in the World Series, Ken Herbeck and Ron Gant at first base and pulling the leg off Don denkinger in the 85 World Series and the blown call that he made for the Cardinals. Like there are umpire moments. And because of how crazy it was, we forget what happened so early in that game. But that was just mass confusion, at least on the part of the Blue Jays.

[Chris Covino]

There was mass confusion on multiple parts of that game in moments we haven't even brought up. And we got to move on from this game.

[Dan Beyer]

But it was like a whole series wrapped up in one game.

[Chris Covino]

To prove it, I'm going to name two quick plays that we haven't even brought up. When Ohtani stole second and he got thrown out because he popped off the bag, that was a big moment. And there was a part of me.

[Rich Davis]

That was like, I could also say really great throw by Kirk again, you can see why. These are the best two teams in the league.

[Dan Beyer]

How about Edmonds throw to third base?

[Chris Covino]

That's what I was just going to say in the ninth inning. That was the game changing moment because Tommy Edmond, who, and lucky it had.

[Dan Beyer]

Hit off of Freeman's glove because that would have kept rolling.

[Chris Covino]

The fact that Freeman deflected it, if he caught it, then he probably would have been like, I should have caught it to touch my glove. You know, the fact that Edmund does that little slide into the throw, throws a strike, that was nifty. That was slick. Game changing. And again, so many other little ones like Sasaki, like, you know, catching a great one hopper back to the mountain, but then almost, almost underhanding it too low to Freddie where he has to scoop it. The Blue Jays, at one point, one of their infielders, I forget who threw an intentional one bouncer because of his angle. And I'm like, that's a risky play in itself, too.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, we take those plays for granted, especially when you think of how big those moments were. So, hey, we got to experience it. Lucky us and can't wait for tonight. But there's something we all have in common. We all had great intentions. I can't speak for Dan Beyer, but I know Danny G and Rich and I all had great intentions of, yeah, we're going to watch the game, but we're going to go back and forth and see what the Chiefs and commanders are doing. We're going to, you know, watch this game.

[Chris Covino]

I had a bet on the line, remember at the end of the show yesterday, I said, guys, let's roll with Wembanyama. Let's roll with the Dodgers. And unfortunately I said, remember I said commanders getting ten and a half. Ooh, maybe they could cover it looked good for a minute, but yeah, the Chiefs were chief. And then Taylor was on hand to see Travis break some records.

[Rich Davis]

It was caught his hundredth touchdown. And the Chiefs win. They beat the commanders. Good for them. They go to 5 and 3 now commanders 3 and 5, 28, 7. And I didn't find this out until after the game because I was so glued and so set on what was going on in game three. And same thing with Danny, same thing with Rich. None of us knew really what happened until after the baseball game.

[Chris Covino]

I just by habit, because I'm a nervous ninny. I'm always refreshing my phone. So I knew the score, but I really didn't watch many downs of that game. Highlights. Yes, but that game was not turned on in my house. I did not put that on the tv.

[Rich Davis]

Now showboy Mahomes will be here. We'll talk to him about it. We'll do some trivia, giveaway prizes. 87799 on Fox. But it all ties into the week eight of the NFL. Yeah, week eight of the NFL. A lot of things happened. And let's just say Covino and Rich made a purchase. We bought. Can I just say this? We bought a robot.

[Showboy Mahomes (Robot or AI voice)]

Whoa, no.

[Dan Beyer]

What's her name?

[Chris Covino]

Oh, we can name. I don't know what.

[Rich Davis]

Rosie Rose. We bought a robot. You guys can name it.

[Chris Covino]

Much like the Robot from Rocky 4 with Paulie. Remember that? The robot. The happy birthday. The happy birthday, Paulie robot.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, Programmer to talk sexy to me.

[Chris Covino]

Well, Kabino and Rich, you're the greatest cabino.

[Rich Davis]

You're so happy, handsome.

[Chris Covino]

Remember, Paulie programmed it. It's like, hey, stud.

[Rich Davis]

We bought a robot. A Fox sports robot. We invested our show money and I plan on expensing some of it because it's not cheap. And this robot does something special. What it does for you is it recaps an entire week of football. So let's say you were on vacation. Let's say you were busy. Let's say you missed something. This robot condenses everything for you.

[Chris Covino]

I'm fascinated by this. Our video producer, Spot's been really messing around with AI and Sora and all these cool things. Spotty boy, you seem to be the guy that knows the most about this stuff.

[Rich Davis]

Well, I'll tell you this. As of today, do you know Google Gemini, they're saying is slowly creeping up, or should I say quickly creeping up on ChatGPT, doubling its usage from last year. And they're saying it's going to push the technology even further.

[Chris Covino]

The same way you've been seeing all these amazing Sora videos where you put in some prompts and it'll be like, yeah, what's a video of damn buyer, you know, getting eaten by a bear. That's my favorite. But you could make these videos, and they're wildly funny.

[Rich Davis]

And remember, Rich, you know, much like the Internet itself, it has great use. Right. But we use it for evil and stupid things all the time. We need to figure out a way to use technology as a tool to enhance our lives. Like, you know, not to do the work for you, but as a tool to complement you, or else you become obsolete.

[Chris Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

So we put our noggins together and we said, hey, if we buy this AI robot, maybe we can enhance our show instead of being replaced by a robot.

[Chris Covino]

Yeah. So what you do is you put in all the prompts and you get a little creative and give. Give the. The robot info. And we said, here's about 10 to 15 bullet points of week eight of the NFL. Hey, robot, make a rock song with a country twang. A little bit like a rock country song.

[Rich Davis]

Let's not give away all of our secrets. Let's just say we told the robot.

[Odoo Advertiser]

To do its job.

[Chris Covino]

Who's the robot gonna live with after the show?

[Rich Davis]

We'll figure that out.

[Chris Covino]

Spot, you have an extra guest bedroom. You and your wife are open to this, right?

[Odoo Advertiser]

Sure.

[Rich Davis]

So, without further ado, it's an anatomically correct. We're trying to use this new technology.

[Chris Covino]

I'll take it if it looks like the Megan Fox robot from that movie.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, well, we're gonna have to fight if it looks like that. But we're trying to use this technology to our advantage here, and hopefully you reap all the benefits. You may love it, you may hate it, but we're gonna do it anyway. It's a debut of sorts. It's radio history in the making. It's Covino and Rich's AI recap. We're calling it CNR's robot recap of week eight.

[Chris Covino]

Take a list.

[Showboy Mahomes (Robot or AI voice)]

Jets fans crying in the rain all year Sunday came and washed their tears finally one win column. Mango's gone, man. We raise that glass Rest in peace. To a legend's past. For the first time in months, the crowd finally felt alive again. How to rewrite fate? Steelers fans ain't too little too late. As the whole team smiled. Yeah, they took that dubbing home in green Bay the season sitting first in line with the lambo crowd yelling every time the frozen tundra's humming that victor its own Meanwhile in Baltimore they're getting reset Lamar's lacing up he ain't done yet the crowds holding bread Time for that comeback Sweet game, baby Leak on wild fulfill it to the B It's a heartbreak mile 49 break down too many bodies on the floor and the giants loose scatter boo can't take much more, take much more Cowboys crash like they've been here before Back on how about she still cheaping all through k fits a hundred with Taylor revue yeah the crowd still hum and heart still pound Every town's got something going down it's the chaos we crave the noise of fame the league's insane but we love the game yeah, we j.

[Spot (Producer)]

Just.

[Showboy Mahomes (Robot or AI voice)]

Another page in the heartbreak playbook See you next Sunday. It's W.

[Rich Davis]

CNR's robot recap of week eight.

[Chris Covino]

Robot recap.

[Dan Beyer]

Now, what I really want is a parody of that song made by tickle sec.

[Rich Davis]

And, hey, you might get that. And week nine might be hip hop. Week ten might be metal. We'll see. So that's your recap courtesy of C&R's robot that we purchased over the weekend.

[Chris Covino]

But here's the question we were talking about with big Mike, who runs this place.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, who? Big Mike.

[Chris Covino]

If you could say, hey, make a song that's pop rock, make a song that's country, make a hip hop song, make it any song by just putting in key terms and it could be generated that way in our lifetime. What do you think the craziest thing we'll see is? Do you think we're gonna be old guys? God willing, you live 80, 90 years old, and you could put on a headset and, like, it could pull your memories out. Like, what? Where's the weirdest thing this will go? Where's the weirdest place this will all go?

[Rich Davis]

I think it could take you back to these moments. Hey, I want to be at Game 3, Dodgers Stadium, October 26, 2025. I'm sorry, 27th, 2025. I feel like technology is going to allow you to do that sort of stuff. You know what AI does right now? If you put a picture. Let's say you and I post a picture, we're out and about. If someone had this picture and screenshot it, they could figure out exactly where you are through AI in seconds. Like, exactly where you are on the map. You'd be anywhere in the world. And it could tell you where that person is. I think you could take a picture of a moment, have AI recreate that moment, put on some sort of headset, and now you're in that time period through AI and an oculus of sorts, some sort of AI goggles. If it's able to tell you where you are, if they're able to recreate all these things in seconds, you put on a headset, you could be anywhere you want. That's kind of cool. Take you back in time.

[Chris Covino]

We've talked about how there's different angles in broadcast of sports now. How many years do you think we're away from you getting some pov, like in the huddle, if you want. Do you think there's going to be a. Do you think there's going to be a Sunday ticket like, like a next level package where it's like throw on your Oculus or throw on these glasses, these Google glasses or whatever.

[Rich Davis]

And all of a sudden, crazy camera angles. We're already getting that now.

[Chris Covino]

Because if you look at a game from your parents childhood up into the 80s 90s until today, you keep thinking, well, how could it get better? And it does.

[Rich Davis]

Okay, so I take a picture of fat ass Babe Ruth and he's pointing into the stands, right? I take this picture, I put it into AI and then AI generates the real, like that atmosphere, the way it would interpret that moment. And now I get to watch it through a virtual reality headset. I think that's where we're going to be before you know it. Like I said, Gemini pushing things even further in that ChatGPT world, in the world of AI. So we're able to make a song and recap it in moments with the use of it. And we really did make a purchase, by the way, to robot. Allow us to do that. But where do you think it's gonna take us? What are you excited about? And it always goes back to something smutty. We know that because we think about that too. But what else, what else could it be used for? And where do you think it's going?

[Dan Beyer]

On that note, Demolition man, back in 1993, they predicted that part of it with Sylvester Stallone and Sandra Bullock.

[Rich Davis]

They also said there was three seashells and I'm waiting for him, I'm waiting for them.

[Chris Covino]

Well, I do wonder, do you find it creepy or awesome? You ever see, like, you could take a picture of like your grandparents from the 1940s and they could. This technology, they're like, oh, let's bring that picture to Life.

[Rich Davis]

That's weird.

[Chris Covino]

Yeah, Weird or awesome.

[Rich Davis]

I don't like it personally, but I think they could enhance that technology where you could feel like you're immersed in it.

[Chris Covino]

Sam, did you see the Suzanne Summers story from this week? Nope. Really? I thought you'd be all over this. Oh, you mean her widow brought her back to life with like a AI program. There's a. Has a blonde robot. Yeah, has a blonde robot that is uploaded. She's. She did obviously millions of episodes of TV shows.

[Dan Beyer]

All her books.

[Spot (Producer)]

She.

[Chris Covino]

She did, you know, audiobooks are all her own books, so they have a database of her saying everything. They have programmed a robot with Suzanne Somers voice and it's a blonde robot. And the husband says he still talks to her. I mean, that's. That's next level. Danny. I was. Sam, we're going in a weird direction.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Yeah. So I'm a little weary of it. It's the robot recap.

[Odoo Advertiser]

And.

[Rich Davis]

And where do you think it's heading? How is it going to change your life? Change sports, for that matter.

[Chris Covino]

Place that Colin always promotes, is it cosm?

[Rich Davis]

I know what you're talking about on the name of it.

[Chris Covino]

Oh yeah, cosm, where it's like that. You watch the bait. The. It's like a miniature sphere in Vegas.

[Rich Davis]

Yes.

[Chris Covino]

It's like a mini sphere and you can watch a game, but you feel like you're almost in the game where it's like a POV that you get.

[Dan Beyer]

It's like your front row.

[Chris Covino]

You can only imagine.

[Rich Davis]

COSM is the venue in Englewood, California that hosts sports and entertainment events such as NHL, NFL football, Cirque du Soleil and more. I mean, it's Cosmos C O S M dot com. If you've never seen it, you know.

[Chris Covino]

Just think about it. Something. Something to contemplate how it's going to change your life. Not only in sports, but in life. Like in 10, 20, 30, 40 years from now. Where will technology be there right now? Suzanne Summers could be brought back to life via a robot. Our show could buy robot technology and also to just plug in, you know, a few things and it makes a song recapping a week. You could, you know, you could put in keywords and have a video that looks like I was. Sam is really doing something.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, it's. It's amazing, guys. And hopefully it just enhances what we're already doing and not replacing you. That's the goal.

[Chris Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

All right.

[Chris Covino]

For you, you know, the fastest, fastest growing form of. Of smut is.

[Rich Davis]

No, but I bet you know, AI.

[Chris Covino]

Like fake women, so.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Chris Covino]

Have you seen the movie Minority Report?

[Jonas Knox]

Yeah.

[Chris Covino]

There's a scene where like they walk.

[Rich Davis]

In, there's like this guy laying down.

[Chris Covino]

There'S like this three dimensional woman, like on top of him. That's what we're headed for.

[Spot (Producer)]

Yeah.

[Chris Covino]

Sam, I feel like you. Are you resisting it or loving it? Oh, totally resisting it.

[Rich Davis]

We just.

[Chris Covino]

I think this is all awful. I feel like it upsets you. It does. Because I can tell. I don't know if we really need.

[Rich Davis]

These things in our world. A lot of it's soulless. But that's why you want to put your human touch on it.

[Chris Covino]

Right?

[Rich Davis]

And either. Either work with it or you lose to it. So you got to figure out a.

[Chris Covino]

Way to work with it. I disagree with that. I think I can be against it. I don't know if we need to take song making away from the human economy and give it to some butt rock, you know, robot. I'm sorry. You know, that's just my opinion. I hate it. Look at it this way. Remember in the 2000s, Danny, go back 20 years when we were younger men in radio? Remember the old timer DJ that was like, I want to play records and CDs. And it's like, yeah, but we have a computer system now. What happened to the guys that resisted?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, but that's different.

[Chris Covino]

True, that's music made by humans.

[Dan Beyer]

But. But the human element for entertainment's always going to be necessary because they've done all these experiments with radio stations where it was all technology and it all flopped.

[Chris Covino]

Why do you think. Why do you think a lot of these actors unions are like, they won't even let a toe in the doorway of AI because they know it's just gonna proliferate. So I'm with them. I'm with them completely. People will eventually make AI product, and I'm sure, I'm sure it'll make its way into my life at some point. And I'll be like, okay, cool.

[Rich Davis]

It just has no.

[Chris Covino]

I know it has.

[Rich Davis]

It's a real life Black Mirror episode. It really is, you know, and it's changing our world at a rapid rate and it's changing social media.

[Odoo Advertiser]

That's a good one.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Spot (Producer)]

Yes. Let's go to Mississippi.

[Dan Beyer]

That's Jeremy. What's up?

[Chris Covino]

What's up, buddy?

[Patrick Mahomes]

Hey, brochacho.

[Dan Beyer]

What's up? Jeremy, what do you do for a living there in Mississippi?

[Patrick Mahomes]

Oh, I'm not. I don't live here right now. I live in Alaska. But I'm on my way down to Louisiana.

[Dan Beyer]

Oh, you're driving.

[Chris Covino]

Okay, how about that?

[Dan Beyer]

Here are the rules for showtime. Mahomes NFL Trivia. The first contestant with two correct answers is the champion. If there's a tie, we have a tiebreaker question.

[Rich Davis]

Let's go.

[Dan Beyer]

Let's get it on.

[Patrick Mahomes]

All right. We're gonna play the game in between the whistles, all right? That's how we do it. Patrick Mahomes. Here. I'm here. And who's the first player in NFL history to throw 4,000 yards in one season? Was it A, Rich's boy? Joe Montana? B, Joe Namath, or C, Joe Theisman?

[Chris Covino]

Come on. I'm giving you a chance, Jeremy.

[Odoo Advertiser]

Rich.

[Dan Beyer]

Rich.

[Chris Covino]

Joe Namath.

[Dan Beyer]

Yes.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Joe Namath. 1967. Due for more interceptions than TDs that season. 28 to 26.

[Dan Beyer]

But he did have over 4,000 yards. Pretty amazing, but he did. Yep. Round 2 as Rich is on the board.

[Chris Covino]

Jeremy, just scream your name out. We're trying to give you a chance to win here, bro. Let's go.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Namath also had a lot of booty calls, too.

[Spot (Producer)]

He did?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Chris Covino]

All right, round 4,000.

[Jonas Knox]

I heard.

[Rich Davis]

Round two.

[Dan Beyer]

Yes, sir.

[Patrick Mahomes]

All right, how tall was the shortest player in NFL history? Was it A, 5 1, B, 5 2, or C 535 2?

[Dan Beyer]

Jeremy. Say your name.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Jeremy.

[Chris Covino]

All right, hold on one second. Mississippi, Alaska. Where's the accent from?

[Jonas Knox]

What's our story?

[Spot (Producer)]

Jeremy sounds Irish.

[Odoo Advertiser]

Yeah, I thought Jeremy.

[Chris Covino]

Me, Jeremy, Jeremy. Give me your backstory for 10 seconds.

[Jonas Knox]

Where are you from?

[Dan Beyer]

Scottish.

[Patrick Mahomes]

I was born in the UK, Black PO. And I moved to Alaska. Got my citizenship 17 years ago.

[Chris Covino]

All right. Interesting story. All right, what's your answer?

[Dan Beyer]

You kind of buzzed in. Is it five one, five two or five three?

[Patrick Mahomes]

It's me. Five two, no.

[Spot (Producer)]

Dan Buyer for the steal.

[Showboy Mahomes (Robot or AI voice)]

No, man.

[Rich Davis]

Oh.

[Dan Beyer]

Everyone loses that round.

[Patrick Mahomes]

The answer is A, he's about as tall as Alejandro Kirk. Five foot one. Five foot one. Jack Shapiro, who played for the Akron Pros 1921, was only five foot one.

[Rich Davis]

Damn.

[Chris Covino]

Well, that was tall back then.

[Dan Beyer]

So Rich is the only one on the board so far. We move on to round three.

[Patrick Mahomes]

All right, Round three. Patrick Mahomes here.

[Rich Davis]

Showboy Mahomes.

[Patrick Mahomes]

What was that? Once quoted saying about regret Regrets are something you could avoid by staying true to your dreams. B, I have zero regrets treating all the refs to a free meal at me at Trav's New Steakhouse. Or C, you could always regret just missing it, but as a football player, you have to move on to the next play. Jeremy.

[Dan Beyer]

Jeremy.

[Rich Davis]

C. C, yes, that's right.

[Patrick Mahomes]

You can always regret just missing it, but as a football player, you have to move on to the next play. You're the man, Jeremy.

[Dan Beyer]

Halfway to a CNR Nerf Football. Rich and Jeremy on the board. We go to round four.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Round four. Who's the first team to win back to back Super Bowls? A, the Pittsburgh Steelers, B, The San Francisco 49ers, or C, the Green Bay Packers. Chatterman.

[Dan Beyer]

Oh, Jeremy for the win.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Safe.

[Dan Beyer]

What's that say?

[Patrick Mahomes]

The Packers.

[Showboy Mahomes (Robot or AI voice)]

The Packers.

[Jonas Knox]

Packers come from behind.

[Dan Beyer]

A comeback.

[Chris Covino]

Super Bowls one and two.

[Patrick Mahomes]

You're the Chief of Chiefs.

[Dan Beyer]

All right, Jay. This means you're going to have to give me your address, though, so I'm going to find out where you truly live here.

[Chris Covino]

We'll put you on hold, buddy. Congratulations, by the way.

[Patrick Mahomes]

It was the Green Bay packers Super Bowls 1 and 2 in 1966 and 67.

[Odoo Advertiser]

Does he work as a janitor at a school in Springfield?

[Rich Davis]

It's funny.

[Chris Covino]

It's a good one spot. Thank you, Patrick. Willie. Hey, Patrick. You know you guys are favored over Buffalo in Buffalo this Sunday.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Yeah, I know that. Did you watch the game last night?

[Jonas Knox]

That's why.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Nobody watched the game. Nobody cares. Everybody's talking about the World Series. Maybe I should have played baseball.

[Chris Covino]

I don't know.

[Dan Beyer]

Thank you, Patrick.

[Lego Star Wars Advertiser]

All right.

[Rich Davis]

Thank you, guys.

[Chris Covino]

All right, we'll see you next week.

[Patrick Mahomes]

Yeah, I'll see you next week. Maybe you'll watch me kick Buffalo's ass.

[Chris Covino]

All right, later, guys. Let's go to Denby for an update. DB what's going on, man?

[Spot (Producer)]

Okay. Richard Deitch, who used to live in the United States, wrote for the Athletic, still does, now lives in Canada. Just threw up some numbers I want to throw past you guys. Canadian viewers. So these are the Canadian TV ratings right now. 7 million people on average watched game one. 6.6 million watched game two. Last night's game three peaked at 7.4 million viewers. His point, 41 million people in Canada. So if you're getting 7 million people to watch a sixth of the country tuning in to the World Series.

[Chris Covino]

Damn, that's a lot of people. That's like the Friends finale. Yeah, it's like mesh. When our parents were, you know, you.

[Rich Davis]

Have to figure, you know, word of mouth, text messages, social media played a huge part of like, yo, you watching this game? Yeah, but how many times did you get hit up? Like, you watch it's like, yeah, of course.

[Chris Covino]

But based on DB's numbers and the guy from the athletics, all three games, 6 million, 7 million, 7 million. So the country of Canada clearly behind their Blue Jays.

[Rich Davis]

Awesome. The time spent watching on that, he.

[Chris Covino]

Did not go yesterday. Six and a half hours.

[Dan Beyer]

Yeah.

[Spot (Producer)]

The numbers on Fox, 13.3 million viewers for game one on average about 11.6 for the Saturday night game two. Still waiting on the game three numbers from last night. And earlier this morning, game four numbers are this. Dodgers up to one coverage getting underway just after the top of the hour. On Fox, it's Shane Bieber again, Shohei Ohtani. In other news in the world of sports, the Bills placed defensive tackle Ed Oliver on injured reserve. Suffered a torn triceps biceps muscle. Excuse me, in that win over the Panthers this past weekend. Chiefs got a win against the Commanders last night, but they lost running back Isaiah Pacheco for a little while. He's considered week to week with a sprained MCL in his knee. You guys just mentioned taking on Patrick Mahomes and the Bill. Excuse me, Mahomes, Pacheco and the Chiefs taking on the Bills this weekend. They have a buy then in week 10. Commanders. They're facing the Seahawks on Sunday night. Played without Jaden Daniels last time, but head coach Dan Quinn said that Daniels is expected to practice this week. And the Saints are making a change at quarterback. Tyler Shook is going to start in Week 9 against the Rams, replacing Spencer Rattler. One final note, the NCAA has delayed the start date that would allow their athletes to bet on pro sports. It was supposed to go into effect on Saturday. It's now been pushed back to Nov. 22. SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey, according to ESPN, sent a letter to the NC asking them to rescind this rule that again could go into effect in the not so distant future. Guys, back to you.

[Rich Davis]

Thank you.

[Chris Covino]

Db, db, I know you're a fan of lower thirds and graphics and what.

[Rich Davis]

Do they call them?

[Spot (Producer)]

Little.

[Chris Covino]

The score bugs.

[Dan Beyer]

Right.

[Chris Covino]

I love looking at the different networks compared to each other. We talked about how, you know, the strike zone is way lighter on the World Series cover. World Series coverage, like it's faintly there. It's not like a distinct square. Have you noticed the elimination of the pitch clock? Because they're trying to maybe let it breathe visually.

[Spot (Producer)]

I didn't even realize it it didn't even dawn on me. I thought that the square cent. There were times I couldn't even see it.

[Chris Covino]

Yeah, it's. It's so faint. Just to almost make it seem less intrusive for the World Series.

[Dan Beyer]

You can only really see it on.

[Chris Covino]

The replays and if it was a close pitch, they would show it. But the pitch clock, which I don't know if the Yankees or. Yes. Network or the Dodgers, usually the pitch clock is part of the little scoreboard taken away for the postseason. I realized it's probably because they think.

[Rich Davis]

That'Ll be different based on the network and what the teams choose.

[Chris Covino]

Well, I wonder what the network did. But the World Series on Fox, I realized that there is no pitch clock, no countdown, none of that on your screen. So in the stadium, yes, of course. But maybe they want it to seem like it's a World Series. We're not rushing, even though there is one.

[Spot (Producer)]

I do appreciate the pitch count always being there. I feel that that's an effective tool to have on screen. So I'm glad that they utilize that.

[Chris Covino]

Isn't it wild to think the old ideology was you're not going to keep a viewer if they know the score the whole time. When you watch old NFL films, you could watch an old game from the 90s and be like, when are they going to show the score?

[Spot (Producer)]

Yes.

[Chris Covino]

And it's like rare. It pops up once in a blue moon. And the mentality Camino back then was, well, they got to keep watching if they want to know the score.

[Spot (Producer)]

We would time the 10 minute ticker on NBC to make sure it was 10 minutes and sometimes it was 18 minutes. You're like, hey, you're gipping me out of eight minutes.

[Chris Covino]

Exactly. All right, well, listen, coming up, there's something that came out of last night's game that has created a fun conversation and it has to do with Shohei Otani getting on base nine out of nine times, which seems like that's better than Little League. I don't even know how to describe that at this point. Like nine out of nine times the guys on base, four intentional walks and one and one walk. That was sort of intentional. Yeah, might as well been 5 times the guy walks. Is it a problem or just strategy and baseball? We'll discuss a little next right here on Covino and Rich.

But before we get into some of the controversy that was last night, we didn't even mention Springer and DB's got your update there. What's up Dan?

[Spot (Producer)]

Yeah, so a couple of things in advance of game four. No George Springer in the lineup tonight for the Blue Jays so he is not starting. There is a question on whether he'll even be available tonight. Could pinch hit. We're not even sure of his status. Nathan Lucas is going to end up leading off for Toronto Dodgers just making a change. Teoscar Hernandez is going to bet fifth tonight. He and Max Muncie flipping in the batting order. So that's what you got for game four. Coming up on Fox.

[Rich Davis]

Damn, is that karma? Like Danny G said, is this George Springer karma for cheating back in the day? I don't know. Injuries.

[Chris Covino]

Weird to say karma with injuries, but I don't know. You hate him.

[Dan Beyer]

If you did that to your Mets, you would have called it karma.

[Chris Covino]

You're probably right. I will say that's a big loss when he hit that. Bottom of the 10th inning, right field. Nice hit. People are speculating was that word Toronto went wrong in sending the runner from third who was like, out by a mile. But here's the problem. Everyone keeps saying, dude, Vladdy was on deck. They would have had second and third. And what would they have done? They would have walked Vladdy. And now you're. You're given Kiner falafa the chance. And I don't know if that's, you know, is that your best shot? I think you had to go for it. You had to go for it.

[Rich Davis]

You had to have a perfect relay to get him. So props to the Dodgers.

[Chris Covino]

Hey, Oscar played the ball perfectly. Upper wall, through it to Edmond. Strike.

[Rich Davis]

Edmund, I think you take that chance.

[Chris Covino]

In a big moment, perfectly pivots and throws a strike to Will Smith. Will Smith is blocking, not blocking the home plate, but like perfectly. Everything was just done fundamentally.

[Dan Beyer]

And aha. You said intentionally walk Vlad. That leads to the next little topic here because how many more times you saw the little kid in the crowd?

[Chris Covino]

No, don't walk Ohtani again. Five times. I mean, four intentional, but the fifth was intentional. If you ask me, when you're pitching all way outside, you know, slight slow sliders that are cutting five feet off the plate. I mean, you're not giving the guy a shot.

[Rich Davis]

There's lots of speculation on social media. Lots. A lot of jabronis make info videos complaining about it. And there was one guy in particular. John Root. Sports commentator John Root proposes limiting intentional walks to one batter per game. Sports commentator John Root proposed on Twitter on X that Major league baseball should limit teams to one intentional walk per batter per game and force the pitcher to throw.

[Chris Covino]

I think it's strategy as much as I get it. You want to see the players. You want to see the players play. I know you could say, well, load management in the NBA, people pay big money to see these guys. You don't want to go to a game with your kids and see Ohtani walk three times.

[Dan Beyer]

But I mean, well, Barry Bonds like that tweet, by the way.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. He also says MLB Proposal. You should be able to intentionally walk a player more than once in a game. You shouldn't be able to. He says, we watch baseball to see the greatest hitters hit, not be given a free pass because they don't trust their pitchers enough. Well, you're also saying then you might as well take strategy out of the game. That's why baseball's the greatest game. It's a. It's a chess match that carries on to the next day. So every move you make in game three is going to have a factor in game four.

[Chris Covino]

We, we.

[Rich Davis]

And that's just how the game is played. So you're basically saying you don't like how baseball's played. This is part of the strategy. But you added it may not.

[Chris Covino]

You added the universal DH that took away strategy. And American League guys like, you were like, DH is better. Like, that was, you know, that was.

[Dan Beyer]

A big part of the shift was taken away.

[Rich Davis]

The shift. It just change. Changes the strategy. That just, that's, you know, that's just being. Those are just different rules. To me, that's. This is part of the deal. Like, yeah, I know it's. It sounds weak to, to walk Ohtani, but doesn't it make sense to walk Ohtani and by. What's the difference between pitching around them and having an intentional walk by walking.

[Chris Covino]

Ohtani, though, you know, if Mookie bets, I love him, but if he hasn't, if he wasn't like 1 for 15 in these scenarios, is he like 1 for 15 or 18 in scenarios where there was an intentional walk ahead of him? He was sort of cold yesterday, that one line drive base hit. But, you know, I, I get for the excitement of the game. And how often is a guy going to get up nine times in a game?

[Rich Davis]

You could say you don't trust. You don't trust the. The guy next in your lineup because, you know, a lot of people, it is a walk. I always look like a walk is a rally starter. So you want to put someone else on base. You just got to count on that next guy. So the strategy goes both ways.

[Chris Covino]

I think in a regular season game, maybe it's different where you say, all right, people pay tickets to come out, out and watch. You know, in June, if the Dodgers are playing the Pirates and they're just randomly walking Ohtani a couple times, that takes away from the family who spent their money to go to the game, the playoffs, I'll be honest. You know who's there? Rich people and people with access. So I think the playoffs, you got to do what you got to do to win the game. But in the regular season, I would not be opposed to a, a one time a game. Who would, who would argue that? Well, one intentional walking game, that's a.

[Rich Davis]

That'S a better compromise, right?

[Chris Covino]

In the, in the postseason.

[Rich Davis]

We have different rules in the post.

[Chris Covino]

In the postseason.

[Spot (Producer)]

You.

[Chris Covino]

That strategy, man, Y. He's the best player in baseball. We're not going to let him beat us in the World Series.

[Rich Davis]

You don't trust your pitchers, why you don't trust your other hitters. And you know you're putting a guy on base. Make something happen with it. So your thoughts at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio and get ready for game four.

[Chris Covino]

Yeah, we'll see you guys tomorrow. Enjoy until then. Arrivederchi, baby.

[Rich Davis]
