This is the baseball tonight, the podcast for Monday, October 11, 2021.

And today will be better than yesterday.

Combustra only on the New York, producing today is the illustrious Dan Stansick, who is

pinch hitting this week for the Reverend Taylor Schwink. He wants us to call him Rev Dan after he gets back after

officiating a wedding over the weekend. What do you think?

I'm all in on a good nickname. I'm not so sure about a nickname that you give to yourself.

And I do have to say buster, it's October 11th today and your producer is off.

Does he know the playoffs has started? I know he's an oracle fan, but what are we doing here?

Yeah, 100% and on top of that, like he wants us to call him the Rev and most of the summer we've

been placing bets and how many drinks he can consume over three days.

Take five over under on one week and it was 42 and a half.

And that's who we're going to call the Rev.

I like it. I like Taylor. We'll call him the Rev. Why not? Let's do it.

Yeah, it's easy for sure. All right.
