We're broadcasting today live from the Spanish radio booth, also known as Ricky Ricardo's house. That's right. So, Ricky, thank you for letting us hang out in your living room. Just don't leave behind any negative juju in here. Sorry about that. Please. I can't help myself. I hardly have this disinfected when we're done here. Well, think about this. We did three shows in this booth last year during the

World Series. You guys won one game and lost two, so we're one and two. That's not a great record.

I'm sorry to say that's very mental. I know. How confident are you tonight, Ricky?

I've seen Schlittler enough to be confident in our rookie.

I haven't seen enough of early to be a judge on him.

Now, it's one game, anything can happen.

Oh, we can go through all the cliches.

But this kid, Schlittler, 98, 99, 100 miles.

I mean, the fastest pitches thrown by any Yankee

pitcher this year have been thrown by Cam Schlittler. His mental makeup is exactly what you want

for a night like tonight, this kind of situation. So my confidence level is very high in Schlittler.

And I don't think the Yankee offense has really done much these first two games against this rookie tonight. You guys like Giancarlo who is 0 for 8. People could wake up tonight with their bats here. This could be over early. John Carlo also saw him in the minor leagues when he was rehab. Yeah, Somerset.

There's a little... What are the odds of that?

I know. The guy with experience against him is Jean-Carlo. Random guy who's started four games to the Red Sox. John Carlo's seen already and he needs something to get out of his lap. Now, how quick do you think, Boone, will and should be with Cam on the mound tonight? Oh, this is any first sign of any difficulty.

You gotta, you gotta go to your pen. be with cam on the mound of the night oh this is any first sign of any difficulty

you got to you got to go to your pet everybody's got to be available whether it's

Warren whoever it might be he's overused his pen overused it's two games for

pizza but he's used his bullpen pretty much here in these first two games

so I might be a little hesitant to go to a Fernando Cruz, for example. If they go to Weaver, he's got to come through. But no, Tiki, this is, you know, there's no time to let this thing slide. But you know what's tricky about this? So there's a bunch of winner-take-all games today. If you're just tuning in, the Tigers just advanced. Congrats to them.

They beat the Guardians.

Which, by the way, is the only team if the Yankees get to an ALCS that they would host. It would be the Tigers. Anybody else that would be on the road. That's a good call. I forgot about that. That's right. So go Tigers to a lot of Yankee fans. but in the cub game because they're playing the Padres, U. Darvish is on the mound for San Diego. He loaded the bases with nobody out in the second inning. Now, that's normal for a starter. You hope to get through it, limit the damage, still give you five or six innings. They pulled them, which shows you what you said. Hey, it's a winner-take-all game.

You can't take chances.
