Something came over me on my drive home. I'm barely awake.

Podcast will pep you up.

Good morning and welcome to episode 314 of Effectively Wild

the Daily Podcast from Baseball Prospectus. I'm Sam Miller with Ben Linberg. Ben, how are you?

I had a better day than the Cardinals.

Because you didn't lose a World Series game.

No, I did commit a few errors along the way.

You didn't play in a World Series game though.

I didn't. That's true. Good point.

All things considered, I would say, your day sucked into the Cardinals.

Really, basically a tragically bad day on your end.

It's a valid way to look at it.

So I don't know what you want to talk about with Game 1, but I have an idea which we haven't talked about.

But I watched the game. You watched the game as well.

I watched the game with no sound. I was in a room with no sound.

So I watched all the TV coverage of it. I assume you heard words being said as well.

There were words going into my ears, I guess.

I don't know that I was paying that close attention. Maybe I was.

Okay, I'm just curious to, I'm just curious to discover whether our perceptions of the game differ at all,

given that we watch it in slightly, slightly different ways.

So I just thought maybe we could go over a few of the key moments of the game.

Sure.
