Hey what's happening to San Diego and welcome back to it. 3 o'clock hour, going in Chris. On a Tuesday, Chrisello. Tony going junior down at Petco Park. Matt Scravey. Alongside here in the Odyssey Palace studios, Padres and Pirates. Pirates have to play the Padres again. You know they're probably not looking forward to that. They've suffered all four, four for four to the Padres and three of them have been really tough ones to take. But the Padres have been finding a way to get it done in these tight ball games. Those are seventh loss in a row I think. Yeah the last four to the Padres and three in the middle of that to the Dodgers. Pirates have really fallen out of contention. There's no question. Robert Suarez nailed it down last night. 25 26 saves now for Suarez. I just wanted to throw this out. Suarez coming into the game last night. Unbelievable moment. Padres take a 2-0 lead. The bottom of the eighth inning ends and the lights go out at Petco Park. And then the flames start going around on all the video boards. And Robert Suarez comes jogging in from the bullpen and there's a... Holy snikies! Exactly. There's a cameraman running behind him and he's jogging in and the lights are now flickering and Robert Suarez's entry music is playing. I wish he would come out through that actually. Yeah he's not coming into that. But here's the thing and this is... I don't mean this is a dig at Robert Suarez because I did get kind of charged up. But when the lights went out last night and he came into the game I got taken back to when Hell's Bells used to start and Trevor came into a game. And I just don't think that's that's never going to be duplicated anywhere anyhow no matter how hard they try to do it. Um... What do you think? Am I too old school? What do you mean by that? Just when the music started at the beginning of Hell's Bells... Yeah I mean it's part of this... That's so iconic that I don't think it can ever be... Yeah no it can't. It can't be duplicated because it's not just about the music it's about what song it is. This part Hell's Bells is perhaps the greatest entry song you can have for a picture. There you go. The only way to really replicate it is to use it. And then you have to be as good as the guy who was using it before. You know and so... And that's that's going to be tough. So I mean if that would have came on yesterday my guess is you would have it would have taken you back there and it would have gave you those same feel. And that's in the song. Like there... I don't even you know I wasn't until Trevor was coming out to it. I couldn't tell you who... What the Hell's Bells was. But when he started coming out to it I don't know how you can't come to the... You can't beat it. Right? Yeah you just... That is the greatest... Yes. Closer song and it only works for a closer right because you got to come in from the dugout or from the bullpen. As a hitter you don't get that long. Like you get like like 10 seconds and then it's over. That song has to play out. And I just think he was one of the... He's the first one to come out to it. And I just think it's going to be ever for ever etched in anybody's head until we're all dead. And nobody who was around that saw it. Then it can be used again and be replicated in the same way. Yeah it's never going to be topped. I guess that was the point I was trying to make. I didn't make it very clearly. Robert Suarez' entry is cool. But it's just now what he's ever going to get to Trevor. I know the Yankee fans think that Moriano Rivera's inner sandman was better than Trevor's but I will match it up any day of the year. Hey here's the other thing. They didn't have the technology to turn the lights off when Trevor came out. Like if they turned the lights off at 98 we would have been waiting for 45 minutes for them to get the light backfired at. So if Trevor had these effects, if Trevor had these effects it would definitely be over. It would be hands down. Well I know what you can find it. If they turned the lights on at Qualcomm bro the game would have probably been suspended for the rest of the night because the lights wouldn't come back on. Because when the lights went out last night man everybody got excited. Ryan Hellsley does that too. I guess. And he does AC/DC. He does health belts. That ain't the same. Like here in D. Hellsley does health belts. Yeah we did a big five question. You guys were both fine with it. I was not fine with it. I'm fine with it. But it ain't the same. I mean you know still hate to tell. It's not the same. Of course. And he you know it's it's you know why that song like if Trevor. I hope Trevor's not listed Trevor had for some reason not been good. Like we wouldn't think of the same the the hell's bells in the same way. The fact that we think of it is because every time he came in for like what 500 plus 600. How many let me say Trevor finished with six something. Yeah six hundred six. Yeah six hundred plus saves later. That's why we feel that way about the song. Now Trevor came out and he got like you know two hundred one fifty. We probably not we're probably not figured. We're probably not doing. I just know that the excitement with Trevor coming into a game was so much. The crowd was so insane as he was running out on the field that that song was screaming out over the loudspeakers that and you're right Tony it all has to do with his pitching. Right. It felt like once he got to the mound and hell's bells finally stopped playing that the other team has what just gone home right then. Hey he's not. Chris is not. By the way. They weren't going to score. I mean people were just no chance the game was over and that's because he was so good but anyway I just thought of that last night. Was that because at home I didn't really did they play hell's bells for him last night. First for us. No they play whatever he plays. He plays his song. Yeah I don't know what his song is. I got it. Okay because somebody probably somebody probably knows what it is. It's a good song. It's a good song. It's a good lead it. You know walk in song and you know the the the fireworks and everything that's happening when he comes in it's good but I just think that you know this is just something that we were lucky enough to see when we saw it and it's never going to be that way again. On TV last night they didn't go to break and I was like is something broken or because usually they go right to break because they have a set amount of time that they need to get back by. But they went the whole entire commercial break without going to break because they wanted everybody to see the Robert Suarez thing. I I you know what I don't know is and we should know this because we've we've interviewed Trevor a million times but um what is the story behind Hell's Bells other than the fact that he loved AC/DC and loved that song did he did I don't know if you know Tony but I don't know if anybody know did he go to the Padres and say hey I want to start playing that when I come in did somebody on the Padres say hey we got an idea you know when you come into the game let's play a Hell's Bells. That's a great question. I doubt I don't know. I mean who honestly deserves the credit. Yeah Tony for the I'm a tech team right now. Oh well there's the source. There we go. I mean that will be perfect. I really wish Robert Suarez would rent out to this too. Chris has no idea what this is. Little Stone Cold Steve Austin right here. Yeah. Sausage the 360 baby. Can you imagine Robert Suarez ready on the field? I just love 90s wrestling intros. Unfortunately Robert Suarez wouldn't know what that is either. Hey you don't know that. How old is Robert Suarez? I don't know. He wouldn't. Let me see. You don't know that. Stone Cold Steve Austin is a worldwide known person right. Right? I don't know if he's worldwide. He's worldwide in my world. Oh he definitely is world. 1991 is when Robert Suarez was born. He's a stone cold guy I'm sure. He's a stone cold guy. Why don't you go up next time you see Rob. Next time you're about to ignore Robert Suarez and the Padres. Is that how we're going to do that? Well Joe Musgrove told us the way you are that you you know don't go up to the players go up to Robert Suarez and ask him. You know it's who Stone Cold is. Do I grab her? I have a new song selection for you. Do I have a boombox on my shoulder? But the kind of success he's had this year I don't think he's going to be changing anytime soon. No not even close. I put it I asked him how the hell's bells become his song so I'll wait to hear back. All right. I'll get the verdict on that. Gwen and Chris here 309 is the time. We are going to be giving away speaking of great music. Paratickets to see Def leopard and Journey at Petco Park. It's coming up 17 days from now August 30th. Tickets are on sale now at ticketmaster.com. We'll let you know how you can get in on that shortly. You know something to throw out there guys the NCAA football season is upon us and they had the top 25 came out yesterday and they were yeah thank you for playing the Aztec song because I was curious where did the Aztecs stand heading into this season. Sean Lewis brand new coach and the excitement around Aztec football. According to Bill Connolly of ESPN staff writer who does such things the Aztecs and the college football power rankings enter the season number 91 in the nation. I'm sorry what number 91 in the nation. They're 91st out of 134 teams. So the San Diego State Aztecs. San Diego State Aztecs. Number 91 trailing such teams as Wyoming Vanderbilt Air Force Toledo. We're even behind Texas State Coastal Carolina and South Alabama and others. That's all right. Yeah I'm saying that's where Sean Lewis is starting. I'm sorry we go first. 91st. Geez I had no idea. There's 43 teams. There's 43 teams below them. That makes you feel any better. It does a little bit. They got a lot. They got a you know that's the Sean Lewis is excited everybody to the point where I think a lot of people have forgotten that they were four and eight last year. I forgot it wasn't really a great season you know. So yeah I think Sean you know I think he's gonna end up a lot higher than 91st but that's where he's starting. And they move up quickly once they're at 91st you take out Texas A&M Commerce. You go down to 70 you're gonna move up at least a 90th. I hope so. And then and then Oregon State you can make a big jump if you won that one. Now if they lose to Texas A&M Commerce they can be the last. Then they can be on the way down. They can't move to Texas A&M Commerce. Stop screaming. If they lose to them they can be last. I'm worried about this. Don't worry about that. Actually Kirk Kenny and I have been texting here and there and we talked to him on the show last week. He is very positive about this team and if Kirk is not about to say that says a whole lot because it tells me that this team has a chance if Kirk is a little positive about it. Kirk is not always the most positive individual. So I'll tell too straight. He keeps it a buck. So I'm happy that he's feeling positive about this season. Yeah he did have an injury update today on one of their running back. So Keenan, Chris John from the USC transfer who was an Aztec last year suffered an ankle injury in the in the fan fest game the other day may not play on the opening game. But we got a do we have an opening game day temp. Temperature? Yeah. It's got to be colder than it was for the original opening snap dragon still hot that Arizona game the hottest day in the history of changing the day. I sat directly in the sun for like maybe five minutes and I was like I can't do it. I just remember I just I it's funny because the hysteria of how hot it was and them having to make wholesale changes at the stadium to to kind of find a way to keep it cooler was like at an all-time high. It was and that is such typical bad luck for San Diego State at the letters. Well it was like if anything can go wrong it will and I mean you build a brand new stadium and everyone's excited and it debuts on the hottest day in the history of the planet. It's true. Everybody hated your stadium because of that and that had nothing to do with it. Nothing to do with it. I went to it and it was sort of like the Walking Dead because there were many people lying on the ground. It was almost like it was almost like it was wiped out. Yeah. Yeah it was uh that I just I think back to that day and then like reading getting on Twitter and just seeing how crazy everybody is going about it. San Diego State did this and San Diego State did that. Why did they put it on me? Why did they pour water over everyone? I mean what do you want them to do? That's where that's where we all started finding out like the details of an awning and how it worked because everybody was looking it up at the time. Yes where's an awning it only costs an extra $42 million. They should have had it up. That's why the brains don't have a roof on their stadium. I mean poor ass. You know how about this? Why don't you not drink a lot of alcohol and you drink water in the heat? That might help try to try to stay hydrated. Something beer doesn't necessarily accomplish. The beer definitely doesn't accomplish that. Ooh I have a jazz chisel update. Update yes. All right we'll give it to us. What happens? What happens? We want the game last night. Oh that's awesome. Okay we'll tell you on the other side. I'll tell you Tony in the break so you. Okay thank you. You're welcome. Daily Gambit is next and we'll find out what happened to jazz chisel them.

I was only going junior at Petco Park, Matt Scrabby, Glenn & Chris, 97.3, the fan. Sandy goes number one sports talk station, 321 is the time. Rolling towards 5.30 this evening, Pirates and Padres game two of the three game series. Thank you, Mud. Thank you there. Pirates, Steve. Pirates, Steve. That was dodgeball. Oh, sorry. Don't know the dodgeball references. What? Have you never watched dodgeball? Haven't. Okay, we were doing a segment in the winter. Are you going to tell me that it's a great movie? We're going to do a segment in the winter where Chris is going to have me make me watch something I haven't watched and I'm going to make Chris watch something he hasn't watched and dodgeball is going to be on that list. Goodness. Oh, we got great movie on the chat. There you go. I bet. Yeah. Every movie you've ever seen is a great movie. It's true. I got the Padres starting lineup here, but and we have a daily gambit, but who can do any of that while we're on the edge of our seat waiting to find out what happened to jazz chism of the Yankees. Thank you very much, Chris. Jazz chism exited the game last night and he is likely Aaron Boone is saying that he is headed to the IL with a left UCL injury. They are determining the severity of it if surgery will be needed. But bad news for the Yankees because jazz chism came in blazing. He came flying out of the gate for the Yankees, right? Well, he had four home runs in their first three games. I don't know if he's done anything since then, but he won't be doing anything else in the near future. Yeah. For the Yankees. Scrappy will now give you a quick check. All right. I'll give you a check of the Padres starting lineup leading off as Luis arrives. He's back at the DH spot tonight. He's leading the National League in hitting despite a record of an average of only 305. Jerks and Pro far is batting second. He's in the high two nineties. He's under 300 now, but still right there in the top two or three in the batting race. Jake Croninworth is batting third at first base. Manny Machado after night off didn't look like he had a night off because Donovan Solano looked like him at third base last night. He really did. My goodness. Manny will be back in there batting cleanups, Andrew Bogart's fifth. Some kid named Jackson Merrill is batting six. I hope he does well tonight. Yeah, it'd be nice to see him, you know, kind of introduce himself to the fans here. David Peralta continues to quietly, you know, get it done for the large part in right field. Hosang Kim. Hosang still without a home run since June. Almost had one course on Sunday in Miami, but that didn't happen as it turned out. And, you know, the slump is there for Hosang Kim. I hate to say down to about 227 now I noticed last night. Has it been a season in the batting average? Kyle Higash Yoka's batting ninth. Higash Yoka, by the way, almost hit another three run homer last night. He missed it by about a foot. You're right in the eighth inning. You're right. Michael King is on the mound for the Padres, Luis L Ortiz will pitch for the Pittsburgh Pirates. He faced the Padres last week in Pittsburgh. Do we need to pirate lineup? We do not. We're not going to get it. Let's get to today's daily gambit instead. Do you like money? I think about money a lot. Do you like money without doing anything? Uh, that winning. Do you want to make money while watching sports? I think Washington is immortal luck. Washington! Woohoo! If you answer yes, this is your segment. Just don't blame us when you lose. Nothing is ever your fault. It's okay. Take it when in Chris go through the top bets of the day in the daily gambit on 97. Three the fan daily. Their daily sports bag segment here on Gwen and Chris, please everybody gamble responsibly. We made some bets last night. We will review those bets. However, Chris, I'm going to retweet something from at 97. Three the fan SD. We have our eliminator challenge has been set up and I found a website that's going to be able to take everyone and that's ESPN. So I tweeted out earlier, but if you are interested in playing the eliminator challenge for the NFL season, go to at 97 through the fan SD and sign up for it. Basically, here's the rules. You have to pick one team each week. Once you pick them, you cannot pick them anymore. If your team wins, you move on. If your team loses, you are out and that includes even if you lose in week one. So lots on the line every single week, Chris. Well, I'm in it. You're in it. Tony will be in there. I think a lot of people from the radio station will be in it. So if you want to get in the eliminator challenge, have some fun with us throughout the football season. Yeah, make sure you sign up at 97 three the fan. I did want to say one thing in defense of jazz chisel. Yes. He did hit four home runs in his first three games of the Yankees. He did go on to hit three more home runs for the Yankees to finish with seven in 14 games. So he did awfully do awfully well for them. But that does hurt. They lose him now to the knee injury. We'll see how serious. I think it's a elbow injury. UCL is that way. Sorry. Yobo. Yes. Yeah. All right. Here are our bets from last night. I made a parlay and it would be over four and a half Joe Musco strikeouts. We could stop right there because he only had one on the net. One strike out for Joe. He wasn't going. He wasn't going for the whiffs last night. No, he was not. We'll move on. Padres minus one and a half on the run line over the pirates. Both of us pick the Padres. Both of us were wrong because the Padres won, but they only won by one run. Yeah. As it turned out that ball that got past Jay Conan worth and scored the pirate run. That's right. Two outs determined the wager. There you go. Picture. There's a lot of people on casino floors in Las Vegas last night, either screaming or angry. One of the other at that play. The game last night over under eight runs total. We both went over and obviously we're well short of that with only three runs. Shota Iminaga for the Cubs over under six and a third innings pitch last night. Chris said over. I said under he went five. I said over. I thought I said under. I wrote it under. Okay. But I could have said over and just remember if you have it you're pretty good. I'm not an Iminaga fan. So I'm pretty sure I did under. Okay. Dodgers and Milwaukee over under eight runs in that game you went under. I went over. You were correct because the score was five to two Dodgers. Kershaw pitched well. Those people are trying to give up on Kershaw. Don't go too fast on that. Yankees were favored by one and a half runs over the White Sox last night. I suggested that they should be favored by two and a half or three and a half. Yes. And both of us went Yankees thinking this was an easy one. The White Sox broke out last night. 12 runs. 18 hits. They went 12 to two. We lose the bat. Who did they get? Seven of those runs off of any all deals. Yeah. Sorry about that Danielle. Yeah. We really did. Yeah. Oh, well, we knew we just you know, it was it was hard to watch tires. I don't think Padre fans miss any all day. I don't think so either. Yeah, I don't think so either. Braves and Giants. We had more strikeouts in the game. Chris Dale or Blake Snell both of us with with Snell Zilla. We were close, but sale and he had 12 and Blake Snell had 11. Oh, that would have been a heartbreak loss right there in the betting world. I was two and four last night. You were one on five. Wow. Sorry. Was that bad? I didn't realize that last night. Let's see if we can turn it around tonight as we go to the Yankees again, one and a half over the White Sox. You can't possibly bet the White Sox to beat him again. Can you? I'll take the Yankees. What are you doing? I'm going to take the Yankees that they're not going to have 12 runs, two games of rows. All right. So we'll see a Turic Scooble. Okay. One of the A.L. saw young favorites eight strikeouts tonight. Wow. Over under in his matchup on the Hill. He's facing. Let me see the Seattle Mariners who do strike out a lot. If I recall when they were in town, remember their beat writer said they struck out like endlessly. And Julio Rodriguez was in a major slum. Yeah. And then he went ahead and he got on. Yeah. Right. Who do you like here? Uh eight strikeouts over under the trade deadline. I really have not paid attention to anything that he's been. So I'm just going to say that he is over over. Okay. Because of that, I'll say under. But he's been pretty good. The the A.L. saw young from what I'm hearing because I don't follow it as closely as you know. Yeah. It's going to come down to either Scooble or our old friend, Seth Lugo. Oh, I hope Lugo win. And Lugo is pitching tonight for the Royals. He is six and a third innings over or under in his matchup. And that is at Minnesota against the twins. I will support Seth Lugo over all those six and two thirds is a lot these days. It is. But he's been going pretty deep into games. I thought he has going to support under. I think you're not supporting him. Okay. Not supporting him tonight. That doesn't mean he's L.A. Dodgers are one and a half of from Milwaukee. Last night I went to Dodgers way tonight. Scravey. What do you think in Milwaukee? I'm going to go for the brew crew. Come on, brew crew. Give us a little help. Would you please need some? Come on, man. We'll take Milwaukee here for sure. Now two on the Padre game over under eight runs tonight. Padre's and pirates. Over under eight. This is going to be over tonight. That whatever happened with Jake Woodford last night is not happening tonight with Luis Ortiz. We say that a lot. I know we do, but the Padres are going to hit tonight. So you say over saying over. I'm going to go under just to get one back. Interesting. Okay. Okay. And then Michael King over under six innings for him tonight, starting for the Padres. Michael King is an interesting one because he does sometimes rack up the pitches early in games. I'm going to say he goes over. You're going to say over anyway. Yes. You just said you made you made a statement as to when you were going under. I know. I don't want to cheer against him. So I'm not cheering against him, but I'm still saying under Michael King can pitch really well and still get taken out after five and two thirds innings. This term seems like sometimes he's just sailing along. He's doing great striking everybody out. And then he looks over and here comes Mike Schilt and the look on Mike King's Michael King's face is oh no like really like really you're not taking me out now. I mean it was last week he started out the game. I think he struck out the first two batters against the pirates and then there was the Bryce Johnson air and then he threw like 30 more pitches in that inning. That hurt him last week. All right. I'll say under. There's our picks today. Hopefully we'll do a little better than we did last night. What up against a quick break. When we come back Chris is fantabulous sports game show. No, the rivalry resumes between Scrabie and Tony next on Gwen and Chris. Hi. Welcome back to Gwen and Chris. Chris Elo. Tony and Junior is out of Petco Park. He's running back and forth, but he's coming right back here shortly because he and Scrabie are going to play a round of Chris's fantabulous sports game show. That is coming up momentarily about time for Scrabie to post a victory over Tony Gwen Junior. Yeah, it would be about time. It'd be nice if you could do it. We'll see what happens would be in the in the game that's coming up. I want to give everybody an opportunity right now to win a pair of tickets to see two great bands at Petco Park. One is Def Leppard. One is Journey. All right. I'm trying to come up with the definitive trivia question for this. Okay. I'm not really coming up with it. It's okay to just give them away. Really? I think so. Never stop believing. Oh, no, don't stop believing. That's the word. That's the name of the song. All right. I don't know. We'll just give them away. 11th call if you're struggling. Yeah, I'm going to give it to the 11th caller. Okay. I usually I'm really fun and cool, but I don't have it right now. Save that clip. So the 11th caller at 833-288-0973. Well, when tickets to see Def Leppard and Journey. Hey, all you beautiful people out there. It's time to play one of our favorite games of the week. All right. We like to call it. Oh, I'm going chorissa's fantabulous sports game show. It starts right now on 973 the fan and hi. How are you? All you beautiful people out there. Welcome to the fantabulous sports game show. I am Mr. L.O. and we are ready to play today with well, neither player as the reigning champion of the fantabulous sports game show. That's right. Adam Klug took the last title, a non-sports related game. Yeah, thanks for doing that when I was in there. Scrabby Scrabby out. We did a little geography neither Tony nor Adam was able to come up with the fact that Nebraska and Montana are located west of the Mississippi. Are you kidding me? I would have known that in the heartbeat. Yeah, maybe. And then maybe you would have forgotten a different state. Anyway, went into a tiebreaker. Adam prevailed in an exciting tiebreaker. But that's neither here nor there because it's back to the contest that we all love. Matt Scrabby versus Tony Gwen Jr. and we're going to get right to it. I'll give the category today. They will name answers going back and forth. If you get one wrong, you get a strike, three strikes and you're out. There are 20 points up for grabs today on 16 different correct answers. But some of them are repeated answers. And if you get those, you will score more points. So those will be ones you will try to target today. What is the category again? I haven't given the category yet. I'm keeping everybody in a bit of suspense. You can play along out there. See how well you do. This is not a creative category today. Straight up right in your face. Name the Major League Baseball players that have won MVP awards over the last 10 seasons. Name the Major League Baseball players American and National League that have won MVP awards over the last 10 seasons. That means 2014 through 2023. All right. So you have 10 seasons, thus 20 points because there's 10 on each side. Scrabby, you want to go first or second in today's category. I'm going to go second today. That's not a good move because you just gave him three points. He's going to take the first answer and score three points. You want him to do that? No, I don't. I don't. Oh my God. He is not smart at all, Tony. You should never lose to this guy, honestly. What the heck? He struggles. All right. Go ahead, Tony, you're first. No, no, no, no, no, no. Go ahead, go ahead. Go ahead, Scrabby. Okay. Show you Tony. Show you Tony. That's where two points actually won the MVP award in 23 and 21. So Scrabby takes a 2-0 lead. Tony's turn. Scrabby, you're unbelievable. He's throwing me off. Throwing you off. How are we throwing you off? I'll take Michael Trout. Mike Trout's a better one to take. You know why he didn't come to mind? Because he's never played. Well, he played in 2019, 2019 and 2004, or 2019, 16 and 14. He won the MVP all three times. So Tony takes a 3-2 lead. So even though you went first, you still boxed up the strategy. Well, Scrabby, it is your turn. Who would you like to select now? Aaron Judge. Aaron Judge. One-time winner 2022. That is worth a single point for you. That ties things up at 3-3. And now it is Tony's turn. How about perhaps the greatest right-handed hitter of all time? Miguel Cabrera. Miguel Cabrera. That is good. That is going to be a buzzer for Tony Gwen Jr. and Miguel Cabrera did not win an MVP award in the last 10 years. I won 2012. Yeah, I think he won 12 and 11 or 13 anyway. I missed up on the date. So Tony Gwen Jr. getting a little make it more interesting. Trial. He's getting a little cocky now in our screen. He's getting cocky now. He's got a strike. Scrabby does not have a strike and we're tied 3-3 and it's your turn. Scrabby. I'm going to take my guy from last year, Rama LeCunia Jr. Rama LeCunia Jr. Safe pick, but correct and gives you the lead 4-3. There's still one two-time winner remaining. Everybody else won at once. Tony Gwen Jr. it is your selection. Trailing by a single point now. Oh, how about this one? Clayton Kershaw. Clayton Kershaw sneaky. 2014 just sneaks in there. He did win the MVP 10 years ago this season and that ties it back up for Tony. It is Scrabby 4. It is Tony 4 and Scrabby. It is your turn with 11 correct answers remaining. Now I'm getting a little weird. You're getting a little weird. It's in the last 10 years. Every AL player that's ever played is not coming to mind. No, you have National League as well. Okay, what about Mookey Bats? Mookey Bookey. American League MVP in 2018. That is correct for the Boston Red Sox. Mookey Bats won it. And Scrabby goes ahead now. Five to four. Nine points have been taken. 11 points left. 10 correct answers. Tony Gwen Jr. How about one Bryce Harper? There's the other guy that won twice. Tony takes him off the board with a two-pointer. He won once for Philadelphia in 2021. He won once for Washington in 2015. So Tony has taken a 6-5 lead, but Tony does have a strike against him. Scrabby's strike. It is your turn 7-8-9 answers remaining. Oh gosh. Nine correct answers remaining for you to choose from here. MVPs and Major League Baseball the last 10 years. Wow, don't get hurt. Christian Eilich. Better be right after that discovery. He just binged in. Talk about cocky. He just rang the bell before I told you it was right. Well, because I knew it was right. Oh, I see. Okay, well, on that will be the show. It shows accomplishments. And I remembered it said MVP. Sorry that I'm here to interrupt the game for you. We are tied at 6-6. Tony has a strike and it is Tony's turn to name an MVP in the last 10 years. Eight correct answers remain on the board. Cody Bellinger. Cody Bellinger, Los Angeles Dodgers 2019. Tony Gwen Jr. is very good at this. Yeah, let's give it a 7-6 lead. In fact, he gave away a strike on purpose today. He did not feeling so giddy about saying that or gear for that matter. So Scrabby, you need one to tie it back up. There are still plenty of correct answers. Seven remaining that are MVPs over the last 10 years. Oh, give you a clue. There are four in the National League left and there are three in the American League left of that should help you in any way shape or form. Remember, you can play out there along. See how many you can get. Scrabby's thinking hard here trying to avoid his first strike. There he goes. He's trailing 7-6. Tony is goading him on in the background. Oh, oh, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. I didn't bring it because I wasn't sure. Well, it's not correct. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is not yet won an MVP award. His dad, I believe, won one, but Vladimir Guerrero Jr. not yet quite an MVP. I think he won a home run derby. As good as he's there. Scrabby's got his first strike. Tony's got a 7-6 lead with seven correct answers remaining. Tony, your turn. How about Freddy Freeman? Freddy Freeman. God, he's just ripping him off. I wasn't sure. 2020 with the Atlanta Braves, Freddy Freeman did take an MVP trophy. Oh, that one doesn't count. That is Tony Gwen Jr. an 8-6 lead. How did he get so far ahead? Well, he had a two-pointer with Bryce Harper, and that was a he had a three-pointer with with Mike Trapp. I'm still angry. You know, this would have been a much better category for Adam than it would have been for me. I would have loved the geography category. Why are you living in the past? Because I'm losing and I'm going to lose. Adam would have got smoke just like you get smoked right now. Adam's got Adam's got a little bit better memory for stuff like this. Especially when it comes to states and sports. 8-6 is the score. You guys said just bickering back and forth here as the game goes on. 8-6, one strike apiece. Scrabby, three in the national league, three in the American League, MVP winners in the last 10 years. You need to come up big right here. What about Jose Ramirez? What about Jose Ramirez? What about Jose Ramirez? He certainly should have won one right now. He should have. He certainly has not. Unfortunately, Jose Ramirez is a strike two for Scrabby. At least I'm throwing out a good guess. You're guessing a guy. If you do say so yourself, failing to realize that an incorrect answer is never truly a good guess. But that is right. Jose Ramirez is probably one of the better players not to win an MVP award. For sure. Oh my gosh, I'm an idiot. 8-6 for Tony. Aaron Tony to extend on your lead. How about Paul Goldschmidt? Just a couple of years ago, Paul Goldschmidt of the St. Louis Cardinals did win the NL MVP 2022. I mean, you talk about coming out of nowhere. I mean, he did and he got it. So it is 9-6 now. Tony's bravado is showing through here as we get late in the game. Scrabby needs one to avoid elimination. And is he going to come up with it? Probably not. Let's see. You got five correct answers remaining. Well, I wanted to say Buster Posey, but I think it was before 2014. So maybe not. I think it might have been 2012, 2011. Tony's really helping you over here. Why don't I just go with the guy who everybody thinks is great. But we think is mid Paul schemes. No, he has no one are not. No one are not for the game. I knew that I mean Tony, do you want to tell him what happened here? That's the ball game. It is three strikes. Scrabby is out. Tony McJunior returns to the championship chair in Christmas fantabulous sports. Game show today. I hate this game. Five correct answers went unsaid. Tony, how many of those would you like to name just for fun? John Carlos Statin. He won it with the Marlins in 2017. That is correct. How about a Jose Altuve? Don't take my shirt off. Scrabby, you should have got that. Jose Altuve, one of your favorite guys. He did also win in 2017. I know I've been streaming in 2020. Didn't I wasn't a brave you in that in the American league side? How about that? Jose, a brave you never guessed that. One of the worst players in major league baseball history, 71 MVP. After that, my goodness that he flame out. Did we say Chris Bryant? No. Scrabby, he forgot his guy Chris Bryant. I don't think he is our club. Yeah, there was Chris Bryant, who went on the disabled list again yesterday. Scrabby. Yeah, just to upset you even more. There's only one more guy that you haven't named. You guys have done awfully well. 2015 American League winner, Josh Donalds. Oh yeah, I put that one out of my head. Yeah, Josh Donalds. All right, so Tony wins the Fantabulous Sports Game Show today. 9-6 was the score. You know, I played myself today. You did. I really did. You know what I did? You mentally shot yourself. Well, I knew this was never going to happen. I wasn't. I was a drinker in the earlier part of the 10 year span. So a lot of that was fuzzy. But I studied, I studied Rookie of the Year winners today. You did. That was going to be the category. You thought it was going to go with Rookie of the Year winners. I thought that would have been almost impossible to this. We did not do that. It was. It would have been. Yeah. All right, Scrabby comes up short despite his best effort. Your chance to play trivia is coming up next. Little Chris versus the fan dialing in is the music. Just what? What's going on over there? It's loud. It's soft. It's fast. It's slow. I try to give you the phone number, but I don't think you'd be able to hear it out there. Just dial in to play trivia.
