All the Chaos Before Yankees vs Red Sox Game 1

Cold. Joe, did you see? What? L.A. Ramos is sick. No, he's not. He's feeling a little under the weather, but he really wants to gain the fans' trust. He's playing. Gary Phillips tweeted it. All my monies. Is it really? He's feeling a little sick. Stop, don't tell me. Wait, is this actually true? That's real. No way. We just joked about this. Did you lie? No. Joe's whole pregame show was Ramos, Ramos, Ramos, and we joked that we were going to open our phones to Twitter after the show, and it was going to be like, Ramos is scratched. He's not feeling well. He did say that. He said he's feeling a little sick. No, he's sick. He's sick. He's been feeling a little sick. Wait. They just kind of throw that in. Okay, weird that he just threw that in there. Because it's not what the quote's about. Joe, I've been going hot water. Did Jake see this? He laughed. That's unbelievable. It's kind of your whole game plan. Flu game, baby. And Boone said Judge just isn't quite there yet. Yeah. True. He's hurt. Where's MASH? We've got to find the show. Yeah, but MASH YouTube didn't hit. MASH YouTube? When you guys put it on YouTube? No, we can't do MASH YouTube. We need to find the show. That was my nickname in high school, MASH. What? Yeah, because of the show. Mansion, apartment, new box house. Yeah, because I liked the show. And everyone just made fun of me for it. Your last name is Grim. I know. But they called me MASH. Thanks. Yeah. I'm not against Baywatch being our secondary. I don't know what's available. It's literally everything. Samsung TV. Aaron Boone says he's open to using Carlos Redon in high leverage or even just giving him a game that goes into extras. I don't know. There's a part of me that loves Redon getting used, and he could be electric. He's been our best pitcher. Hedrick and Blackburn have earned it. I've been trying to get the Yankees people prepped. I guess, oh my God, extra innings. I haven't even thought about that. Because we don't have pitchers. Oh. So we just got to win in regulation. But we have guys that are stretched out, like Warren. What's going on? Tim Warren and Yarby. Yarby doesn't play bad. Kind of have to say that. Because you don't want to tell anyone who's not available. It could be very much true, but also everyone has to be available all the time. Wild card round. Wild card round, playoffs, and say they use Hedrick, then Boston might think, oh, they're out of lefties, just Yarby. You know what I mean? Wild card round, and you only brought ten pitchers. I guess it would be crazy to say there's only one specific spot for them. This jazz day was great. Yeah, what did he say about jazz? Aaron Boone said he texted Jazz Jr. last night, hey, you might be the most important person in the building tonight, and we need you to be ready to go for the biggest spot potentially. And I quoted him and said, Boone knows how to talk jazz. And someone said, does he? And I said, yeah, hyperbolic confidence. Just extreme exaggeration of confidence. That's how jazz talks. I did, I posted my, it's long, but conference table pre-game show thoughts. It's basically kind of a lot of what we said in the pre-game show, but in social form. In the Bronx, here are all of my thoughts. With a slow zoom. Defensive guys, so can't. Just toss the fastball in the zone. Some good stats. Probably need to get that under a minute or two minutes or whatever. It's three minutes. It's the first time. Yeah, as we go. Longest time to prep. As we go, the prep ends, because now I got to try and get some breakdowns done. Yeah. Braves game was good. I can't believe this White Sox and Astros series is like happening. I just landed in a ******* city. I can't like that enough. A different animal this time of year. Different animal. I got two words and two words only. Boston sucks. That's right. I just landed in a ******* city. Don't you like that? I have a scenario for you. Is Jake or Joe's here? They both left? I have a question for you. Say we're in fantasy land. It's amazing. Okay? Where's fantasy land? Listen, first batter. Cam goes out. Bang, bing, bong. One, two, three. Okay? Bottom of the first inning. Goldie leads off. He hits a home run. Okay. Great. Yeah. Amazing. All right. Next up, Rice. He draws a walk. Good stuff. Next up, Ramos. He hits a double. Yes. Second and third. Okay? Okay. Next up, Belling, bang. Three runs. Bing, bong. Okay. Home run. The Yankees are up 4-0. Yes. Okay. Lombard gets out. Rosario gets out. Volpe gets out. You're up 4-0. You're going into the top of the second inning. Do you remove Rosario from that game? Do you have a different third baseman playing third? Top two. Up 4-0. When is he back? He just made the second to last out of that inning. And he's facing three. He got the Red Sox down 1-2-3? No, no. Rosario. No, no, no. And Cam's in it. Cam got him down 1-2-3. Okay. So I'd go one more inning just to get him one at-bat. He's got in the at-bat. Totally still in the game. He settled down. He was nervous. How'd he settle down? They needed him to give one more. He struck out Lombard, Rosario, Volpe to end it. I'm keeping him in. You're keeping him in at third. I want more runs. Ground ball to third. Error. Leadoff runner gets out. You're up four runs. Net grounder to third. Throws the second two-ball. That bad? Come on. He's not that bad. I'm keeping him. I'm giving him at least one or two at-bats before I bring... I'm going to stay disciplined to my approach. You have the lead. Yeah, but I want to get at least... I'm taking him out. No way. I think he's getting... Let's ask Jake. Just ate a salad, which may have backfired a little bit because I just messed up a ton of snacks in the snack area. Pre-game nerves. This is October, and now I'm going to spike my coffee. Let me... Biebs, let's show the people. Let's show the people. Show everybody what that means. Innovation. Never know. Never hurts. I got this Starbucks coffee at 1018 AM. Biebs, I'm not a fan of that. She's not a fan. You say that now. I'm not a fan. Hello, fresh coffee. It's 630. I wonder if the game goes late. That's what Carlos Rodon's having. Does our ice machine have any ice? Usually no. Okay, don't get any of this. This was... Frogs. The frogs are out. There is ice. I've never seen this much ice. That's rare. Oh my God. This could be messy. And now, I just got myself a fresh coffee. Follow me for more HGTV stuff. Wow. The more you know. It's a little of both. Has Jimmy gotten you for his hypothetical yet? No. I think he's got a hypothetical he's been waiting for. What's hypothetical? Joe's got this wrong. What's there you think? Okay. Yeah, Joe's was wrong. Okay, it's a glory... It's a gloriful, happy hypothetical. Okay. Top of the first. Canceller. Boom. Bang. Bam. One, two, three. I'm planning on it. Okay. Now, bottom first. Goldie. Home run. Right away. First pitch. Then, Tully's a little rattled. Walks right. Okay. Ramos. Off the wall right. Double. Second and third. Belly's up. Boom. Three run shot. Oh my God. You're up four nothing. Four nothing. The next three batters. Lombard, Rosario, Volpe. Nine pitches. Strike one, strike two, strike three. Strike one, strike two. Immaculate inning after. Yeah, immaculate inning after. We settled in. Top two. Is Rosario playing third base for you? No. Yeah. Joe's didn't pass that. No. Kept him in the game. I said, okay, well, ground ball to third. Bobbles it. Guy's on first. Ground ball to third. Throws it in the right field. Doesn't turn double play. You're fucked. You didn't get the job. I think Joe's has been a little off. He was mad I snuck out to get my salad. I was like, dude, I didn't have to do anything. Well, he wanted to film his behind you, which is funny. It is funny. He gave me his like, Joe's like, you're not getting away from me. And like 20 seconds later, I just walked out. I was just watching some of the streams from last year. Joe's throws a pitch, and it, like with Cam or whoever's pitching, right on, it leads to runs. So you're just like, slider. He throws it. He goes, ****! And melts. And then I watched me McAnning. McManning. Paul Goldschmidt. And how old is he? He's 47. And Joe's age? No. But I hope I get there. Who's batting second? Oh, batting second is Ben Rice. Oh, two for two. Batting third is The X Factor. Batting fourth is Bellinger. Nice. Batting fifth is Lombard. Batting sixth is Ahmed Rosario. Batting seventh is Volpe. Batting eighth is Fenty Jonesy. And batting ninth is the Catcher Spot. And then batting tenth is the pitcher. We're not doing that this time around. No. Moves out. Nice play. God, we have the technology. To know if that's good or not. Oh, he's out. He would be out, and I think he's on the base. He definitely didn't beat the throw. Definitely did not beat it. How did it look like he beat it? Because he kind of launched way earlier than... Wait, that omp is not in position to see him off the bat. He's looking right at the first base. He's looking right at Varconi. He kind of maybe is in position. Wait, is he off the bag right there? You can't tell. It looks like he's on, and then he comes off here. This ******* ---- might stand, right? You love a called standoff. I think he's out. Yeah, but I think it's going to stand. Because he called him safe. Oh, my God. He's not the only one who made the call. Yeah, but it's his brother. That's the guy who made the call. Yeah, it's in the second quarter. All right, Yankees, baby. This game's out. No. Watch this. The longer this goes, the more likely it is to stand. If this is the only review they have. Are you going under with the mic? They're going to say stands. Are you going under with the mic or just on? Crazy. I don't know. There really isn't a good view of it. Should I put it under? Are you going with your mic under? It's like one minute. What's one minute? The game. The Yankee game is about to start. Let's play it. Isn't it starting at 8.15? Isn't it 8.05? Oh, 8.15? Oh, come on. We're not ready yet. Come on, big dog. This game ain't even start. 8.15? Where are you going? It's over. No, you have to stay. For what? It's 8.15. We're going to start early. No, we're not. Oh! Where is the bat? No, that's a Ben Rice-signed bat. His first Major League game. Why don't you sit down so I won't find you the bat? I'll find you the bat. I'll find you the bat right now. No, you sit. This is Major League debut bat. If you guys don't care about it, just give it to me. I'll break it. Where's Zach? I don't even know where Zach is. All right. I guess I'll put it here then. I'll put this here. I mean, I usually have a little table here that has all of my little props. No table this year? He didn't get it ready. Would you like to put it here? I'll put it. No, it's a little far. I'll put it here. Yeah. Where's Felipe going to sit? That's what I'm saying. Like, he had a place and now he doesn't. Welcome. Joe's is freaking out. Number five. Wait. No, that's it. That's it. Hold on. Joe's is going nuts. We're good. Welcome to the 2026 post season. Yeah. The first John Boy Media stream of many. Yeah. With the end of the Astros-White Sox game. Yeah. And we're going to not talk Yankees-Red Sox until that game is decided. Listen, man. The Yankees right now are driving me up a wall. I think... I need to say, like... You know what? What's happening? An early gripe from me. Yes. Early gripe. Yeah. Early gripe. The first, last live stream we did was opening day, the three of us. Right. And I said, Netflix, this is a punctual sport. Well, we did that Toronto game. We streamed that. Oh, yeah. Some of it. We, like, stopped before the seventh inning. This is a punctual sport. You can't, like, mess with that. Very punctual sport. And they lied to us about the start time. They told the public it was 8 o'clock. We knew it was 8.15. They changed it to 8.15. Like, that's not cool. So you think, you know... Babes, didn't it say 8 o'clock? Yeah, today I think the... They changed it today. But yesterday it was 8.15. Well, there ain't a lot going on. Oh, look. This is Jaliala's brother, Rafi Alibo. Thanks, Maggie Pinkling, but we got bigger things going on. I don't care about you. Jason. I can't believe that I saw the one chat and I giggled at it. And now it's the whole chat. Okay, chat, I'll say it. Now, hold on. Are you sure? How'd this start, chat? Yeah, how'd this start? I think it was kind of one of... Remember when all the shirtless guys were happening, and it was one person, and it was four people, and then it was... Super chat, Mad King fan, the Ryan McMahon I bet better be talking about posting. Thank you for the super chat. I'm gonna say it. Go to the podium. That's a podium... That's a podium say. It's a podium say. Poof. That didn't scratch my itch. Can we try it again? You gotta keep them coming back. We got more live streams coming. You know? 0-2, two strikes, ninth inning, Yanks up 9-0. Schreiber throwing his 99th pitch. Pete Holmes in the crowd. We're talking poop. Jamis! Let's go! Bang! Bang! Bang! W's in the chat! What went wrong? Not much. Really good Yankees game. Ramos had some really bad... Great game. You thought you caught me unawares. You did it. He thought he caught me unawares. Hold on. Oh! Let's go. We'll be back tomorrow night. 8 p.m. Yanks with a chance to go on to the ALDS. Talking baseball late night if you're a sicko. Let's go! Oh, look. Judge dapping up our cameraman. It's kind of fun. The Jeter of cameramen. Yeah. That cameraman. What's his name? I sent it. Their Jeter of cameramen. Nice. What's he saying? The Boston guys beating the Boston team. Yes, they did. I agree with me. I was thinking... What a great... Where did we peak at? We had 4.3 to end. 63. 63? Million? That's not right. Let's ******* go. Tight slit. My boy Slitler. Huh? My boy Slitler. Shut them down. The Boston boys came up to play. They shut the Boston... Just so I know. I, uh... If this San Diego score holds, I would have properly picked every wild card game. That sound good? I don't know what you're saying. Give me one more win, baby. Let's go. Keep your pitchers on. Let's go Yankees! Go Yanks.
