00:00The rubber match today in Los Angeles. The Dodgers a slight favorite to take the game
00:08and the series. A game and a half lead at this moment for Philadelphia over LA for the top spot
00:15in the National League. So Craig with all of that information, how significant is this third
00:20and final game in the midweek set tonight in Los Angeles? Yeah look it's it's the dog days now.
00:26The baseball players will tell you that we've reached it in August where there's still two
00:30three weeks until we get to September and that's when the final push happens. I'm very pragmatic
00:35about these teams Philadelphia, New York, even the Yankees to a degree. We were talking a few
00:39weeks ago everyone was just you know saying the Yankees are done they're done all of a sudden
00:43they make a trade then they roll off several wins in a row. At some point the Phillies are
00:47going to start winning again. Dodgers are going to push toward 100 wins. Every team is going to
00:51have these streaks. What you don't want to do is see it happen for more than a month or two months
00:55but guys out of every five or six month season every month can't be a 700 winning percentage.
01:01It was not going to happen for the Phillies. It was never going to happen for the Dodgers
01:05and so it really is all that matters guys. Talk to me second week in September. Who's hot? Who's
01:10pushing toward the post-season? Who was it last year? The Texas Rangers. What did they do? They
01:15got to the World Series. So I think the same could be said for all of these teams as we head toward
01:19October.
