00:00Dave, Quick Sports, what's up man?
00:02Okay, let's start with baseball where the Phillies lost to the Astros last night in Game 4 of the World Series 5-0
00:08as the series is now all tied up at two games apiece.
00:13The Astros pitchers between starter Christian Javier and the Houston bullpen actually threw a combined no-hitter in the game
00:22as the Phillies failed to get one hit.
00:25So a pivotal Game 5 is tonight in Philadelphia at 8 o'clock.
00:31I think it's crucial that the Phillies win because you can't expect to win two games in Houston
00:38as this thing goes back to Houston on Saturday.
00:41Especially after you just got no hit.
00:42But it's no hit by multiple people.
00:44It's not the same as one pitcher throwing a no-hitter, right?
00:48Well, the starter threw six innings and then the bullpen cleaned it up.
00:51But still, I mean, as an overall team, you're not feeling good about getting no hit in the World Series.
00:58So we'll see.
00:59Hopefully the Phillies can win tonight because, again, I really don't want the Houston Astros to win this thing at all in any way, shape, or form.
01:07Basketball, the Knicks fell to the Hawks last night, 112-99.
01:12Knicks' second loss in a row.
01:14Atlanta's DeJounte Murray had 36 points and 9 assists for Atlanta.
01:20The Sixers were defeated by the Wizards, 121-111.
01:24Don't know what's wrong with Philly.
01:25Kristaps Porzingis had 30 points for Washington.
01:29The Nets were off, but they still made news yesterday, as they always do.
01:33Kyrie Irving and the Brooklyn Nets will each donate $500,000 in the wake of Irving's controversial social media post about a book and movie that featured anti-Semitic tropes.
01:46In a joint statement that was released, Irving said he opposes all forms of hatred and also acknowledged the negative impact he had on the Jewish community.
01:55So Kyrie trying to make up for that weird tweet that he was all about there.
02:01But that guy's always, he's, he's, I think he's becoming the new, the basketball Kanye West.
02:07Last season, he was a headache.
02:09This season.
02:10Been a headache his entire career.
02:11It's like, what the hell?
02:12He's the only guy ever in terms of a superstar capacity who didn't like playing with LeBron James.
02:20They were the two guys in Cleveland.
02:21And it was Kyrie who said, I can't play with this guy.
02:25Trade me to Boston.
02:26And everyone else in the NBA is like, if you can't play with LeBron James, you can't play with anyone.
02:30Because LeBron's a superstar who likes to pass the ball.
02:33Right, exactly.
02:34Hockey.
02:35The Flyers lost to the Maple Leafs last night, 5-2.
02:38The Devils and Rangers were off tonight.
02:40The Devils faced the Oilers in Edmonton.
02:42I don't know if you're aware, but the Devils are 7-3 thus far.
02:46Doing all right.
02:47Playing some good hockey early on.
02:48Rangers play the Bruins at Madison Square Garden.
02:52And finally, football tonight kicks off week 9 of the NFL season.
02:56And we've got the 7-0 Eagles taking on the 1-5-1 Texans in Houston.
03:04Who are you going to take in that game, Dave?
03:05Obviously, I'm taking the Philadelphia Eagles there.
03:08Wouldn't it be crazy if this is the first loss for the Eagles?
03:12How weird is it that you've got two Philly teams playing against Houston?
03:16Oh, yeah.
03:17The World Series in football tonight is Philadelphia and Houston going at it.
03:22Is tonight's game in Philly or Houston?
03:24It's in Houston.
03:25It's in Houston.
03:25That's interesting.
03:26But if I'm a Philly sports fan, there's no way I'm watching the football game.
03:31Am I?
03:32I mean, I've got to watch the baseball.
03:34It's game five.
03:36Yeah.
03:36Anyway, that's your quick look at sports.
03:38Thanks for having me.
03:38Thanks for having a second.
03:42Thanks for having me.
03:44We'll see you next time.
