Coming up before the show is over, we're going to give you a chance to win two tickets to Wednesday's. Padre's game against the Houston Astros, Wednesday night, not only big time ball game, but Fernando Tatisse, platinum glove bobblehead giveaway night. So, you know, might want to stay around. I forgot. I forgot to take my home. Oh, the bobblehead. And I just realized it. You're going to put it away for safe. Keep being there. Yes. They had one sitting around the studio here. Yeah. These things are like gold. Come on. Somebody didn't grab it. That's surprising. That is surprising. They usually give us the potter. It's very nice. To us. Yeah. They give us usually one of each promotional item, necessarily. Maybe two. Now we get some, but there's like 20 of us. So I never grab one because I don't feel like I should. You apparently don't mind grabbing one. Well, when they're brought into studio, and I ask Adam, can I take this one home? And he says, yes, then you go home. Then I'm taking it home. Because it's really hard for us to get down there to get the actual giveaway. This must grow one with the dog bobblehead is the only one that has survived the season and is still here in studio. Where's the other ones? They're all gone. That's what I mean. Where are they? People take them. Like you. No, I really take them. I really take them. Well, if anybody's taking actual bobbleheads off the wall than their thieves, well, anyway, you can get a Fernando bobblehead giveaway Wednesday when two tickets to see the Padres and Astros coming up before the end of the show. The show is over at five thirty five. So it's between now and then Sam Levitt's pregame show and then Jesse Tony big doons baseball tonight at Petco Park, Wednesday's game is a different start time. I'm sorry. 40. Okay. A little kind of an afternoon evening affair. Yes. It's the last day game. I don't think that's true. Home. No, the white star. You're in here. This weekend. Okay. Yeah. What you really cleared that up for everybody. I know. As soon as I said it's. Yeah. All right. So stick around for that opportunity. Four board Dodgers just got on the board top of the third. They lead the Braves one nothing nationals over the Mets top of the fourth one nothing. All right. So there's your scoreboard check Padres going after another one tonight. You darvish on the mound following a brilliant pitching weekend in San Francisco. We've talked about so many things about the weekend. You know, Fernando, you know, clutch, home run Friday night got him started. Huge shot yesterday talked about, I thought Cronin War's defense was amazing and every time he makes a great play, I keep reminding people to say, well, he's not that good defensively. The analytics say that the analytics they say he doesn't cover. I don't know. It seems like he's pretty good. I think he's pretty good. I've never had a question about his defense. If you go tell an analytics person, oh, Cronin War's great defensively at second base. They'll tell you you don't know your game. They say you don't know baseball. I'm saying, no, you don't know baseball. Cause I don't know base, you don't know base. I see the guy making plays all over the field and he did it this weekend. Salano had a four hit game, a rise is hitting streaks up to 13 straight. He's hitting 900 during that stretch. So it seems, so it seems, but the biggest thing of the weekend was the starting pitching. Three games in San Francisco cease must grow Perez 17 innings. One run. They only give him nine hits and three walks. They struck out 20 and they completely dominated giants in score till the sixth inning yesterday. And you know that you get started pitching like that. And I know it's funny, but the Padres are going to be great if they get starting pitching like that. Yes, everybody will be great if they get starting pitching like that. If you're starting pitching doesn't give it up any runs, you're probably going to win. But so that goes without saying it was an outstanding job. We'll see if Darvus can keep it going tonight against an Astros team that is heading back to the playoffs for the eighth year in a row and very well could be. They've been in the ALCS or better seven straight years. I think that's incredible with all the playoffs and all of the one game eliminations and this that and the other and the buys and everything, I mean, to do that seven years in a row, you know, I know we don't like the Astros. They cheated. I caught, I don't think they paid enough of a penalty personally, but I'm also not ready to take away everything they've accomplished. You know, I just not all of it. I get it. I was never I wasn't as upset as everybody else about the cheating thing. It's stupid and it doesn't make the sport look good, but I'm over it at this point. Well, you know, look, I'm not a hundred percent. I don't forgive Al Tuva every time I see him, he kind of bugs me to be honest with you. Don't take my shirt off. And breggman still kind of grows me the wrong way a little, but you know, I love Alvarez and what the Astros have done is impressive. So I like this series or this series to start the week because I know it doesn't really work this way in baseball, but it's like a where you whack type of series. You got a really good AL team here in town. It's good. Good series, but more importantly is to me, the standings, you're three and a half behind the Dodgers. You're three and a half up on the Braves and Mets. You want to keep that margin if you can close the gap on LA. So be it. I mentioned it earlier today. I'll mention it again. The Dodgers still have seven games left against the Rockies. It's going to be hard to catch them, but stranger things have happened. Remember the Dodgers also play the Padres three games. So you could conceivably pick up some ground there. You can still win this division, but I think it's a long shot, honestly, just by the way the schedule plays out. As mentioned, Dodgers won Braves nothing tonight in the top of the third. All right. Mike Schilt talking before the game tonight, let's get some of the latest. This question must have been asked by you because you are representing the group of people out there that is all of a sudden concerned about Robert Suarez having given up a home run in two of his last three appearances. So with that in mind, Mike Schilt was asked whether or not he's considering using Tanner Scott at all in the closing role. Well, we can use our high leverage guys in the games. So I mean, that's what Robert is. He's an all star relative the innings go. I mean, his innings aren't extremely far off. It's a little bit more, but it's not this, you know, crazy. And more recently, he's had a lot of rest. So yeah, I mean, we've good news is we've got a lot of multiple options. And the other good news is we have Robert Suarez is pretty special. And you know, the thing is, is a couple of times it doesn't work out. You look up and guys at office, go to Homer's on a 100 mile an hour fastball. Sometimes you have to tip your hat. That's what I said earlier. You did. I did. I mean, you got to give the other guy a little credit. It was a hundred miles an hour. He's the first guy in the history of the ballpark right handed to hit it into the water. He didn't answer the question though. Of course he didn't. He's a manager slash politician. I think they were. Well, because if he comes, let's play this out. If he comes out and he says, you know what, yeah, I think we are going to use Tanner Scott a little bit more. No, you don't want to do that. No, because then he gets back to Robert Suarez and Robert Suarez are thinking, am I losing my job? And if you say that I'm only sticking with Suarez, then you paint yourself into a corner in case you want to. We have high leverage guys for the end of games. That's right. But I'm just saying Suarez get a bad outing in the Detroit. That was bad. But I, you know, I got to give him one bad outing on the year yesterday was just an example of a guy doing something that no other right handed hitter has ever done in that ballpark. McGuire. Yeah. Is Sosa who a gold schm. I'm trying to think of something, you know what I mean by polls, whoever's played in that ballpark, no right handed hitters ever hit the ball in the water. So this guy did it. Let's give him some credit. And Suarez, you know, gives up another couple homers this week. Then yeah, you're right. This is my. But the good news is, is we have fall back. Yes. There is. There are other options for the Padres to use. If it really does become a thing where they, it's, it's a lot of trouble. But baseball, this is just why baseball people are so much different than me because you go, yep. Hit a hundred mile hour fastball out there. Tip of the cap. It seems like we say that a lot though, but on that one, I have to, yeah, sorry, I have to tip the cap. Civic one. Yes. I have to get my cap. I have to pick it up. I have to tip it. He got to Nikola Dolo back in like May when he struck out thirteen Padres. Do you remember that was the stretch where the Padres could not hit a left handed pitcher for like a month and a half and Nikola Dolo just made it worse. And everybody else who everybody was left handed made it worse. Quintanam and Nia, everybody shut them down for like a month and a half. I thought they'd never get it. But we tipped our cap to him. We tipped our cap here. We tipped our cap there. How many times are we going to tip our cap? Tipping it yesterday on the home run by Julio Ramos. All right, one more thing. Sammy Levitt, hard at work talking with our guy, Manny Machado. Machado, you know, whatever, he's been incredible since June. The guy was hitting 237 since then he's hit like 18 of his 26 homers. He's up to 98 RBIs again. What's been the big difference for you, Manny? Has it just been the health? I don't know. I mean, it's just the health, I guess. You know, I think the biggest thing is health, you know, not being able to have a little spring training during the season. It's not, it's not ideal. But, you know, just healthy overall, you know, and it helps when you have this team and your teammates trying to push you and make you better every single day and, you know, not really take on that load that you want to, you need to overdo or try to be the guy when, you know, everyone's contributing, you know, in some way or shape or form, you know, everyone's doing it. You know, it's been a fun year, man, it's been a, it's been a hell of a ride for all of us. And, you know, we got a few weeks left and, you know, we're just trying to finish up strong and, you know, finish off in a positive way. Manny's got 19 RBIs this month or back to August 30th, so I'm going to say 19 RBIs. He's just done it. He's got it done. I, you know, we've changed six times because pro far was to me the MVP for a long time. He's obviously, you know, second half hasn't been as good. Then it was Merrill. Then it was Merrill with the streak of all streaks, right, that was crazy and it's been Suarez all year and it's been a bunch of other guys. I really think Manny, when it's all said and done is the MVP of this team. And the reason I say that is because when he got hot, everybody jumped on his back. And that's the, that's the whole definition of a leader. Yeah. And I really think, you know, it's going to be Manny team MVP when it's all said and done. I, I don't know. There's still two weeks left, but, you know, Manny's been, he's been all that. And then some bag of potato chips and a bag of potato chips, by the way, we're just watching a great relay play of the brave or Dodgers tagging out a brave at home. Padres had a really nice play over the weekend too. Relay play that a lot of them, they, they, yeah, but defense was good when those, those type of plays are pretty awesome. They're big time things. They help you win games and championships. I'm telling you, Dodgers still lead the Braves, won nothing in the fourth and it stays one nothing because at home run by Ozuna is not a home run. It was foul, foul ball, a one, nothing Braves. All right. Dodgers chance for you right now dial in, but not yet. I know. It's okay, eight, three, two, eight, eight, oh, nine, seven, just know if you're first, you will be dry. Right. If you dial in now, scrapie's just going to hang up on you. So wait for the question to win two tickets to see the Padres and the Astros play on Wednesday. Name for me, the Houston Astros all time leader in victories, pitcher pitcher, all time leader in victories for the Houston Astros franchise. This person with the correct answer to that eight, three, three, two, eight, eight, oh, nine, seven, three, we'll see the Astros and the Padres Wednesday while you're dialing in with checks and traffic.

Hi, Pete from Imperial Beach cashed in on some tickets. He'll go see the Padres take on the Astros Wednesday. It's first caller. Got right on the screen. Yes, it was. Jonique Rose, the answer to that question. The late Jonique Rose, younger brother of Hall of Famer Phil Nikro. That's what I thought you said originally and I had a double check with you. No, Joe is the all time Astros leader with 144. Just one ahead, very close. Roy Oswald. Remember that guy? Right hander? Yes. He won 143. But Danique Rose is the guy for the Astros in franchise history. Jonique Rose was, I mean, you got to go way back and you got to turn the clock way back for this one. The expansion season of the San Diego Padres 1969, the Padres traded for Jonique Rose. He had been with the Cubs and he would lead the Padres expansion club in victories with eight. They weren't very good their first year. He won eight games with the Padres in 1969. He was the first, you know, victory leader in Padre history and then went on and led the Astros with 144 victories. Jonique Rose won 221 games in his career. Not bad for a knuckle baller and we've talked a lot about him and Phil this year because of Waldron. Yeah. You know, those guys were kind of resurrected a little bit thanks to the emergence of our guy Matt Waldron this year. All right. Good job on you Pete. People you can stop calling now and people are still dialing in. It's not going to happen. Sometimes people don't listen. Not going to happen. We've got Pete on his way to see the Padres and the getting the Fernando bobblehead Astros Wednesday. He'll get the Fernando bobblehead one that you already have because you just stole it from the studio and steal it from the studio is given to me. Dodgers still lead the Braves won nothing in the fourth national still lead the Francisco indoor less Mets won nothing. That's in the fifth. I think James would hit two home runs yesterday. No, right. He's been crushing it late. All right. So fine. Where's he going to play on this team? I didn't say anything about that. That's my point. So just it's good for him. I didn't say anything. Other guys do other things for other teams, but I'm, you know, enjoying this team right now. Eagles punted on their first possession Monday night football Falcons ball deep in their own territory. I don't really see the Eagles playing with any pizzazz. The game's only two and a half minutes old. Scrabie. What do you mean? I just think they don't want to like a razzle dazzle triple reverse on the first series. Sure. Triple reverse pass. What qualifies as pizzazz for you? You know, I haven't seen a good flea. Oh, I've got to tell you that Kirk Cousins handoff to be John Robinson showed quite a bit of Falcons pizzazz there. It did. Do you see that spin? All right. We're underway in Monday night football. We'll keep you up to date on that as well. We've got about 10 minutes left before we turn it over to Sam Levitt's pregame show. We didn't talk very much if at all college football. College football. Today. A couple of things from the weekend, obviously we mentioned the Aztecs. Very simple, you know, stop committing penalties. I can't, I can't even judge the team as long as they're second and 25 every possession. It's true. You really can't. You don't even know. Yeah. You know, they pick off a pass. They go in for a pick six to take a 10, seven lead in the third quarter. Everybody's excited there and Cal. They're going to, you know, pull the upset and you know, some guy pushes a guy in the back on the way they return and they call it back 60 yards of field. So I assume, you know, that's, that's the stuff you just can't keep doing. I assume that's a young team, but it does surprise me with how detail oriented Sean Lewis. Yes. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy that would, uh, would, you know, go for that. Uh, the AP rankings are out today. Guess who the number one team is in the nation. Scrape. Texas Longhorns. Yes. Did you see that? I did. Did you guess it? No, I did. No, Texas has jumped past Georgia. They now deemed the Longhorns as the number one team in the nation, Georgia falls to number two after a narrow 13 to 12 victory at Kentucky, how dare Georgia winning by only one point. Yeah. That's what I don't get either. Are we now like, has it always been that way? Yeah. Style points matter in college football. I knew it mattered in the BCS because you got computer points, but you have got to beat your people and you have got to beat them by a lot. And if you don't, the rankings will reflect that. So Tennessee beating Kent State 71, nothing. They should be number one, right? Well, Tennessee's moved all the way to number six and they started at like 19. So three wins by 60 points has definitely vaulted them. Where are the f-texts? When the rankings? Yeah. That's funny. They were like, they got ranked pretty low. You're a comedian out there. You're a really hilarious guy. What is this guy doing? There's another story about Texas though. And Texas won its game over UT San Antonio, otherwise known as UTSA. Is that a possible Pac-12? It's a possible new Pac-12 team. But anyway, Texas beat them in the night 56 to seven. Oh, I don't want them then. But who was the big man on campus for Texas? Did you all hear this? Starting quarterback Quinn Eures of Texas, Heisman Trophy favorite was injured. Whoa. Oh, no, that's not what I meant to hear. I meant to hear this. He was writhing in pain on the field. I meant this. He was an agony out there. They had to bring stretchers in hospital people, live audio. Jeez. I didn't mean that. That's funny. Quinn Eures was injured, so he was replaced by none other than, yes, arch manning. This is what this is going for. Arch manning in his college debut, 223 yards, four touchdowns. And just for you, fantasy college players, he added a 67 yard touchdown run. That's pretty good. Pretty good game in his debut for arch manning. Here's the thing that stood out to his coach, Steve Sarkisian. He said on his very first pass, after the injury, they were down near the goal line. He said he looked to his third option before hitting for the touchdown. Oh, I felt okay. The point is he looked, he went through his progression and young quarterbacks, sometimes that takes time, but not if your last name's manning. You probably already know to do that. The guy's pre-wired to be a great quarterback. Yeah. He was born into this world to throw the football around. He can do it, apparently. So that's how that started there for arch manning. We got to do a little traffic, and then we're going to finish things up. From the 97.3, the fan traffic center. Here's Kelly Dannick. Copy. Sponsored by Vaviline instant drive-through oil change.

I'm Kelly Dannick of Glen and Chris San Diego's number one sports station, 97.3, the fan. All right. We got one time for a little bit more here. We'll give you an update on all the scores and stuff before we get out. And Sammy's pre-game has shown up. Do you know, and I'm asking you this, do you know what Major League Baseball MLB? What is their gambling outlet, you know, deal with? Do you know who it's with? Is it would bet MGM? Is it with 365? Is it whatever? I think I actually don't know. I don't either. But I'm asking that because that MGM sounds right though. Yeah. It does. And here's why. Today. Well, maybe not. Today, the Major League Baseball's Player Union sued DraftKings and they sued FanDuel. Hmm. For what? Both of them. And they're saying that both betting companies are using names and likenesses of players on their platforms without any permission. So this is an all type stuff, right? Yeah. They're using their, you know, their names. They're using their, they're saying, here's the, I think, and I, I'm not, I don't have time. We've got a minute or two. Well, maybe a enough time. But no, yeah, we have three minutes. We've got a few minutes. Here's the thing. You, you go on DraftKings, you go on, you know, what you, you know, your FanDuel, whatever, you see Pete Alonso. Yeah. Will he hit two or more home runs? Yeah. And then the odds. Yeah. Baseball players, our union is now, what they're saying is by using his name, you're helping further your business because you're selling the opportunity to bet or honor against Pete Alonso. I see where they're going, but I don't know how I feel. You don't think it's going to make it. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know either. I don't know either. The players have been filed in US District Court, Eastern District of Pennsylvania, da-da-da-da-da. Games in New York, they, to me, is for somebody a lot smarter than me to decide. Aren't they using these players in an editorial way? Like, I guess they're not because they're, yeah, I mean, are you going to, can the players union start suing the newspaper for saying a writing in a headline that Jackson Merrill hit two home runs to help sell the paper? I mean, I don't know. Can they start suing you and I for saying, yeah, Manny Machado, because people tune in to hear what I, and you say about Manny Machado. So is it, are we allowed to use his name without playing some blanket fee? I really am interested to see how this goes. I am too. That's why I'm bringing in a lot of stuff. There's a lot to unpack as they say here. And baseball's driving this. Yes. The MLB players union that sued draft Kings and FanDuel, so really weird. I think it's very, I guess yesterday I spent an hour trying to figure out a FanDuel fan, a daily fantasy lineup. And all those players are sitting right there. All of their stats. Right. All their breakdowns. And they couldn't sell that without it. Now, and let me ask you this. If that gets okay, does the, let's just say the football union, do they sue ESPN? It's a slippery slope after that. And say, well, you're selling fantasy football websites using our names to play fantasy football. So can they get money for that? I mean, fantasy football is nothing without the name Jalen Hurts. You can't go wide receiver number one. Yeah. Yeah. I'll take wide receiver to on the Saints. I'll say you have to use the guy's name. Yeah. See in that way, you're not where this all stops and where it ends because you're not. You're just using their name. That's all FanDuel and draft Kings say they're doing. They say we're just putting Joe Musgrove's name down. I'm not saying Joe Musgrove's suing. The whole player's union is suing. But yeah, we're putting Joe Musgrove's name down and it says, you know, bet on how many strikeouts he's going to have to follow this because I have no idea which direction this could go. I think it's kind of interesting. It is. It is interesting. But it doesn't. It seems like a weird precedent if they decide to this could go could. Is this the old? That could be a slippery slope. It is a slippery slope. Is that where you're? Yes. How are you going with this? I've remembered my, what are those things called logic? Logic. I hated that. You are. You are full of logic in general. I have plenty of logic. It just doesn't make sense to most people. Okay. We'll leave you with that one today, scoreboard bottom of the fourth. Now top of the fifth, Dodgers one braves nothing. Top of the seventh, Nationals one, Mets nothing. Just under way, Diamondbacks, Rockies, Padres, Astros coming up. Of course, you know that right here on 97, three of the fan Eagles in the red zone. No score first quarter against the Falcons. You got it all. I do. Gwen and Chris tomorrow, I start vacation. I know many of you are applauding that. But, uh, it's great. Oh, I'm sorry. Yes. Right. I'm out of here. Scrave. So you and the gang, Tony tomorrow for a while. Yep. Everybody stay safe. Be nice to each other. Have a nice trip. Thank you.
