| 0:00.0 | Dan Bernstein Unfiltered. Unfiltered on 312 Sports. Welcome to Dan Bernstein Unfiltered. This is 312 Sports, |
| 0:12.1 | and I'm Dan Bernstein. So it works out well. This is the Cubs last shot today, and they got about a |
| 0:19.3 | 10% chance of winning the series based on history. |
| 0:24.4 | Now, when I look at those numbers and I see that, I would think that of the 10% who have |
| 0:30.7 | come back in a Best of Five series, an MLB from an 0 and 2 hole, have been more competitive |
| 0:37.2 | in the previous two games. |
| 0:39.0 | Now, obviously, you know that variance rules all in a short series, and baseball's weird. |
| 0:45.0 | And all of a sudden, things can change in an instant in a baseball series. |
| 0:50.0 | But I would think that the likelihood of the Cubs beating the Brewers in three consecutive games is less. |
| 0:58.4 | And I think our pessimism is well earned because they haven't shown that they're better than the brewers at anything. |
| 1:05.1 | I can understand if these two wins, if you are getting one bad call here or one break here just goes the wrong way, a weird |
| 1:14.4 | bounce, something falls in, something finds a hole, something happens. This isn't that series. |
| 1:22.0 | These haven't been those games. So I'll give you either side of it. If you say, if you want to just say, |
| 1:29.8 | baseball can baseball and I'm going to, I'm going to cast my lot with variance and hold on |
| 1:36.8 | to hope, go ahead. Do it. You're allowed. I'm giving you permission to do that. And if you say, |
| 1:43.3 | the Cubs will never on their best day this Cubs team against this Brewer's team, |
| 1:49.1 | they're never going to beat them three games in a row wherever it's played. |
| 1:52.9 | I'll give you that too. |
| 1:54.7 | Yeah, no, it seems pretty fair to say that they're not going to win three consecutive |
| 2:00.5 | games just by watching the first two games and seeing the not only the performance but just the feeling around it the body language the approaches at bat the swings you know defensive errors and just misplays it says it just it doesn't feel like it is a 92 win ball game going against a division rival that happened to win the most games of anyone in the season. |
| 2:23.8 | It hasn't been competitive. |
| 2:25.9 | Even when the, when the Cubs are up three nothing yesterday, was yesterday, two days ago, in the first inning with the Suzuki home run, that was great. |
