00:00In baseball, you need to play the game
00:04the right way at the right moment.
00:06And what we were talking about before the cameras went on, Humberto,
00:09you were asking, Polo, how is Milwaukee doing it?
00:12Yeah. Right?
00:13How are they doing it?
00:14By hitting the ball.
00:16Very simple.
00:17When you're a little kid growing up,
00:18I don't know if you play baseball.
00:19I know you didn't play baseball.
00:21We have all heard the story that you broke your knee at 13
00:25and your career was done.
00:27I would like to see what happened before 13.
00:29Maybe he was like that little kid.
00:30No, no.
00:30My injury came in my 20s.
00:33Then he was done before the injury.
00:35So see the ball, hit the ball.
00:38See the ball, catch the ball.
00:39That's what Milwaukee is doing, not making mistakes.
00:42What happened yesterday when they lost?
00:44They made a couple mistakes, and at the end, it cost them.
00:47Right.
00:48Because this World Series, as much as Milwaukee is up 3-1
00:51and about to take their first-ever world title in baseball,
00:56World Series title, they have played the game the right way.
01:01I call it the old-school way.
01:03People that are 20 years and younger,
01:05they're like, what are they doing?
01:06How come they're not hitting home runs?
01:07Right.
01:08Well, that's how baseball used to be
01:10before the analytics, before the launch angles,
01:13before all that crazy stuff with numbers
01:15that nowadays reigns the world.
01:17Well, people like to see home runs.
01:18But let me ask you this.
01:19What does Tampa Bay need to do to do the unthinkable
01:21and win the series?
01:22Hit the ball and catch the ball.
01:24They have been making so many mistakes.
01:27Yeah, I saw a couple errors.
01:27Even yesterday, they made a few mistakes.
01:30Errors from everywhere, from third base, from first base,
01:33from the outfield, the catcher.
01:34They are making those little mistakes
01:37that a good team like Milwaukee,
01:39they are going to capitalize.
01:41They are going to take advantage of those little mistakes,
01:43those extra outs, as they call it.
01:45Don't give a good team an extra out
01:47because they will do what Milwaukee is doing to Tampa Bay.
01:50Go ahead.
01:51I want to get into something before we run out of time.
01:54There is an important Latino presence
01:56in this World Series.
01:58Mexicans on both sides, Venezuelan, Dominicans.
02:01Polo, how important, just for our audience,
02:04how important is the Latino style of playing to these teams?
02:10We make baseball great.
02:12Latinos make baseball great.
02:14And what you see, especially with Milwaukee, right,
02:18because they're winning, we see Jackson Churio.
02:21If you hear the name Jackson Churio,
02:23you don't think he's Latino.
02:24He's from Venezuela.
02:25When you hear Wilson and William Contreras,
02:29who is the catcher, Wilson is the brother
02:30who already won a World Series in 2016 with the Cubs.
02:33This kid is William Contreras, and he's the catcher,
02:36and he is commanding the game of Milwaukee.
02:39The presence, the pelota caribe.
02:42There's a saying in baseball, you probably heard this before,
02:44pelota caribe.
02:45That is the way the Latinos play baseball.
02:48And aside from Tampa Bay, we have Junior Caminero on third,
02:51Jonathan Aranda first, and a few others
02:53that make these teams very specific,
02:56very simple to play, but very enjoyable to watch.
03:00I am having a lot of fun.
03:01I mean, even though the teams that I follow
03:03throughout the season are not in there,
03:04I am having a lot of fun with the World Series,
03:06and I think people are having fun too.
