Summary
(00:00-26:10) – Query & Company opens on a Hump Day Wednesday with Jake Query and producer Eddie Garrison discussing last night’s World Series game with the Toronto Blue Jays evening the series up at two games apiece. The IndyStar’s Joel Erickson joins the show to discuss some of the injuries the Colts are dealing with, believes that the secondary is a better group than the pass rush if both are totally healthy, lists a couple of things that the Steelers do well that could provide some issues for the Colts, and credits Chris Ballard for the job he’s done at maintaining one of the best offensive lines in the league.
(26:10-38:48) – Pacers Head Coach Rick Carlisle joined the Fan Morning Show this morning and discussed adding Mac McClung, if he’s ever dealt with a shortage of healthy players like this before, and the center position. Jake plays what he said this morning and weighs in with his own thoughts.
(38:48-44:51) – The first hour of the show concludes with Jake and Eddie highlighting all the injuries that the Pacers are dealing with ahead of tonight’s game against the Dallas Mavericks. Plus, they both believe they will see Mac McClung tonight after signing him yesterday.
(44:51-1:08:30) – Ralph Reiff from Reiff Performance Solutions joins the show to go over some of the injuries that the Indiana Pacers are dealing with. He explains the difference between a stress reaction and a stress fracture, tells Jake that it’s going to be some time before we start seeing Isaiah Jackson look more like the guy he was prior to his achilles tear, and touches on some of the injuries that players for the Indianapolis Colts are dealing with.
(1:08:30-1:20:08) – Jake asks Eddie if he has watching Chad Powers at all, which leads them to talking to shows that they need to watch, or finish. They discuss Starting 5 featuring Tyrese Haliburton.
(1:20:08-1:30:34) – The second hour of Query & Company concludes with Jake discussing Michael Jordan’s opinion on load management and how Jordan went about his business on a night-to-night basis from his conversation with Mike Tirico.
(1:30:34-1:55:30) – ESPN’s David Hale joins Jake Query to discuss IU being legitimately the best team in college football. Their conversation starts with what he has seen from Daniel Jones with the Colts compared to when he was with the Giants. David Hale explains why IU is such a dominant team, accesses if Fernando Mendoza should be considered the front runner for the Heisman, believes that LSU is a better job than Penn State, and examines the chances of Notre Dame making the College Football Playoff.
(1:55:30-2:09:15) – Jake and Eddie share some of their initial thoughts on the Pittsburgh Steelers based off what they saw in their Sunday night loss to the Green Bay Packers. Jake also highlights a part of this Colts team that hasn’t received a lot of praise because of the success that Jonathan Taylor and Daniel Jones are having.
(2:09:15-2:16:53) – Today’s show closes out with Jake, Eddie, and JMV discussing the top songs from 1982, the year Jake turned 10 years old. Plus, they preview JMV’s show and highlight some of the officials that they don’t like in the NBA.

| 0:00.0 | Eddie, we didn't really get into this yesterday. |
| 0:04.1 | But did you happen to notice today when you were driving in? |
| 0:11.4 | And obviously it's, it feels like autumn outside, right? |
| 0:15.8 | I mean, and it looks at, and certainly I understand that from a weather standpoint, |
| 0:19.3 | there's some pretty serious and ugly stuff taking place, you know, in the Caribbean and Jamaica and Cuba. |
| 0:25.9 | But as I was driving in today, you know, the wind picked up a little bit. |
| 0:31.9 | The leaves started going. |
| 0:32.8 | I thought about my mom's PSA, which we did last week. |
| 0:35.1 | But there also was this, and I mean this in all seriousness, |
| 0:39.4 | not even being flippant per se. But there's like this strange wind that is going through in terms of, |
| 0:49.1 | and I know that yesterday we were aware of many of these, but now when it comes to the Pacers and the injuries |
| 0:56.1 | that are plaguing them, it's like this, this wind of an injury bug that has flown through |
| 1:02.3 | Gainbridge Fieldhouse. And notably, and what I find interesting, is that the injury, |
| 1:09.2 | if I'm not mistaken, that could just simply be that there are so many |

| 1:18.7 | And I'm interested to talk to Ralph Reef about this later in the show. But you tell me if I'm |
| 1:24.5 | wrong, Eddie, but I thought that yesterday Obie Toppen's injury was listed, |
| 1:29.2 | or at least originally, as something different than what it is now. |
| 1:32.2 | Yeah, I was reported by Dustin DePurek yesterday, who was at Pacers practice and media availability |
| 1:39.0 | and said that it was a hamstring issue for Obie Toppen. |
| 1:44.4 | And yesterday for the injury report for tonight's game in Dallas, |
