Sports in Cleveland

I mean, Rajai Davis is Rajai Davis, Giambi, Tommy.

Uh, v- but I mean, come on, this is postseason baseball, and a guy like Petey Halpin hitting a home run like that, and to put you up in that game, and you end up winning that game, it, it, it's one of the more remarkable things that I think we've ever seen in Cleveland sports.

I'm not trying to be hyperbolic here.

I, I, I'm being serious.

Zagur will join us at 9:00.

But today, you're up 2-1 in this series.

It's a big moment for Cleveland Sports fans.

It's a big moment for the Cleveland Guardians.

And we're doing that with the fifth lowest payroll in baseball, which is also pretty exciting.

It should be exciting for not just Cleveland sports fans, but anybody who's a fan of the sport of

baseball.

Small market.

All the guys are in.

Greg Brinda, the dean of Cleveland sports.

Brinda's on a streak here.

Every win now, all four wins, he's read from his butch- uh, book of witchcraft.

All right, buddy.

Guardian CD personality, Al Pawlowski.

Five to Seven: Guardians Playoff Edition, Greg Brinda of Edina Cleveland Sports, Dennis Manoloff, host of Sportsline, Scott Davidson, WTAM 1100 sports gambling expert, Mike Snyder joining us over the phone, WTAM 1100 sports director, Dave Skoson, WTAM 1100 Extra Innings host, and David Mover, the captain of the Bloom Daddy Titanic.

We're all talking Guards-Rays game two of the ALCS.

I said if we won game three, I really think we're gonna see a game five back here in Cleveland, and we are.

Greg Brada, the Dean of Cleveland Sports.

The Maniloff, half man, half radio god, Dennis Maniloff, host of SportsLine.

Scott Davidson, WTAM 1100 sports gambling expert.

[laughs]

Uh, I'm assuming they are diehard Cleveland sports fans.

Yes.

Yeah.

That's amazing.

It just does feel right now, Brad, that like things are, for the first time, like ever things are all trending up for, for Cleveland sports, which is pretty cool.

Yeah, it is.

I know some people are down on the Cavs, but I could not be more excited about Peyton Watson.

They're replaying Thursday at home.

Big weekend in Cleveland sports.

And you can stick tuned for more Guardians on here.

Guardians Daily.

They were stuck in a D.C. airport at 11 o'clock last night trying to...

What a couple of days it's been in Cleveland sports ever since I stopped eating.

I was out yesterday, Jewish holiday Yom Kippur.

Chris Holdak is here.

Tony Grossi somehow is going to be in studio.

But the guys are not.

It was a wild weekend in Cleveland sports.

I want to start today by acknowledging that the Guardians are inching closer and closer and closer to clinching a playoff spot.
