00:00Dave, sports, what do you got?
00:01Okay, we're going to start with baseball,
00:03where the Yankees lost to the Houston Astros last night.
00:06Come on.
00:07Game two of the ALCS, 3-2.
00:10Another frustrating loss.
00:12Luis Severino looked good out there,
00:14made the one bad pitch in the third inning to the Astros.
00:18Alex Bregman, who slugged a three-run home run.
00:20He's one of the jerk Astros that we don't like
00:24because he was one of the mouthy ones who said,
00:26we didn't cheat, we didn't cheat.
00:29No, no, they found proof.
00:31They're literally wearing buttons on their bodies.
00:34Anytime this guy has success, it drives me nuts.
00:36He has been hitting the ball, and he hit the three-run home run.
00:39Otherwise, Severino looked good.
00:40Yankees just couldn't get that third run across the board for themselves.
00:44They had some opportunities, but we're not able to tie it or go ahead.
00:50So the Yanks now trail the Astros.
00:52Two games to none in the series.
00:54That missed home run was a heartbreaker by the judge.
00:57Aaron Judge, home run.
00:59And again, the Davey Mac conspiracy theorist wonders
01:02if the Houston Astros kept that dome open for the strong winds
01:06that were blowing in because the Yankees have led the major leagues in home runs.
01:10It's obviously to Astros' advantage if the wind is blowing in.
01:14Wouldn't surprise me at all.
01:16I read, though, that that was a major league baseball decision.
01:18I hope so.
01:19Wouldn't surprise me at all because I would do it.
01:21Yeah, if it was a major league baseball, then that does tick me off a little bit.
01:26It's just a little chintzy.
01:27But listen, game three Saturday at Yankee Stadium.
01:30Bottom line, go and win all three games at Yankee Stadium.
01:33You know, they did go, like we pointed out yesterday, in 96,
01:37they lost their first two games in the World Series to the Atlanta Braves,
01:40who were then the defending champion.
01:42Three Hall of Famers with Smoltz, Glavin, and who am I missing?
01:46Maddox.
01:47And the Yankees came back.
01:48They won three games.
01:49Actually, they won four games in a row.
01:51So there's precedent.
01:53That's what they have to do.
01:54Tonight is game three of the NLCS between the Phillies and Padres,
01:59as that series is tied up at one game apiece.
02:01That one's been good as well.
02:03And then tomorrow is game four of the NLCS, both games in Philly.
02:08Basketball, the 76ers lost to the Bucs last night, 90-88,
02:12as the Sixers have huge expectations this year to go far.
02:17But they dropped 2-0-2 for the season.
02:19Giannis had 21 points, 13 rebounds in the Milwaukee win.
02:23Tonight, the Knicks match up against the Pistons in Detroit,
02:26and the Nets play the Raptors in Toronto.
02:29Hockey, the Devils beat the Islanders 4-1.
02:32Devil left wing Andres Pallat scored two goals in the victory.
02:36The Rangers lost to the Sharks in overtime 3-2.
02:40The Flyers were off.
02:41They next play on Saturday.
02:43Football, the Cardinals beat the Saints on Thursday night.
02:45Football and saved Al Michaels' life in the process.
02:48Seriously, that was actually a good game.
02:50That was finally a good game.
02:52The final score, Cardinals 42, Saints 34.
02:55And yeah, it was an offensive game.
02:57Fireworks galore.
02:58I wasn't watching all of it because of the Yankees.
03:00I flipped a little bit.
03:01But good game.
03:02Cardinals, Kyler Murray threw for 204 yards, one touchdown, no interceptions.
03:06As Arizona improves to 3-4, New Orleans drops to 2-5.
03:10In other news, Tom Brady denied speculation that he might retire before the end of the season.
03:16I guess that rumor was going around, and he addressed it with the media.
03:19He said, quote, I love the sport.
03:21I love the teammates.
03:22And I want to go do a good job for this team like I always have.
03:25So no retirement in my future.
03:27Close.
03:28Was Giselle the person who started the rumor for Giselle's lawyer?
03:32If this divorce goes through, I wouldn't blame Tom Brady if he signs a five-year contract extension.
03:39And he's staying forever.
03:40Yeah, like tries to be the first guy to play to 50.
03:43I mean, I'm half serious about that.
03:45This weekend, the Giants 5-1 take on the Jaguars 2-4 in Jacksonville.
03:51A little bit nervous.
03:52This is what I believe they would call a trap game.
03:55Everything is going so well for the amazingly surprising Giants this year.
03:59But don't look past this Jacksonville Jaguars team.
04:02They got a good coach in Peterson.
04:04They got a good young quarterback.
04:06Got to be careful here.
04:08The Jets, 4-2, go against the Broncos, 2-4, in Denver.
04:13And I think the Jets are going to win this game.
04:14I'm taking both locals, baby.
04:16Are you really?
04:16Yeah, first time this year, I'm taking both locals.
04:18I just haven't liked what I've seen from Russell Wilson at all.
04:21He was a big free agency signing for the Denver Broncos.
04:25They were trying to do what they did with Peyton Manning,
04:27get a guy, you know, who's been around.
04:29Right.
04:29Who's a Super Bowl winner.
04:31He's not looked good.
04:32Hasn't played out for him.
04:33No.
04:33The Eagles are on a bye this week.
04:36And that's your quick look at sports.
04:37All right.
