Nothing is ever easy with this #chicagocubs team. After taking a 4-1 in the 1st, the #cubs offense was shut down for most of the game as #jamesontaillon and the Cubs bullpen gutted their way through the game in a nail biter to the end. #kap, #guff and Gordon Wittenmyer have LIVE reaction from the #NLDS. The #brewers left the bases loaded in the 8th and #bradkeller attempted the 4-out save. Guff and Gordon are at #wrigleyfield with coverage from a raucous Wrigley.#takethat ___________________________
Welcome to Episode 108 of Tablesetters, a live special edition devoted to the theater of October baseball. The Wild Card round delivered everything that makes this game irresistible — drama, heartbreak, and the sudden swing of fortune that only a short series can bring. The Yankees shut out the Red Sox to punch their ticket. The Dodgers swept past the Reds to set up a heavyweight showdown. The Cubs outlasted the Padres in a tense decider at Wrigley, while the Tigers endured a familiar divisional foe in Cleveland to keep their dream alive. With the chaos of the Wild Card behind us, the stage is now set for the Division Series — where the stakes climb higher and every mistake, every moment of brilliance, lingers longer. The Yankees and Blue Jays meet in their first-ever postseason clash, an AL East rivalry sharpened by Toronto's defensive mastery and New York's reliance on overwhelming power. In Seattle, the Mariners' long-awaited division crown is tested by a Tigers club leaning on Tarik Skubal's ace-level dominance. The Phillies and Dodgers bring star power on a scale rarely seen in a Division Series — Harper, Ohtani, Schwarber, Freeman, Yamamoto, and more — a matchup destined to echo beyond October. And then there's Brewers–Cubs, a postseason rivalry finally realized, where speed, bullpen arms, and one timely swing could tilt the balance of history. This weekend promises tension, legacy, and the defining moments of the postseason's middle act. We'll walk through the fallout of the Wild Card round, preview every Division Series matchup, spotlight the players poised to shape the story, and consider what each battle means on the long road to the pennant. Join us live on Twitter and YouTube, and catch the full episode on all audio platforms after the fact.

Jamie attends the Wild Card game at Wrigley!!!
On this episode of The Jimmy Rex Show, Jimmy sits down with MLB All-Star Dexter Fowler — the Chicago Cubs leadoff catalyst from the historic 2016 World Series run. They relive Game 7 in Cleveland, from Fowler's tone-setting leadoff home run to the rollercoaster late innings, the rain delay, and Jason Heyward's now-legendary clubhouse speech. You'll hear dugout perspective on Jake Arrieta and Kyle Hendricks, the emotions behind Rajai Davis's homer, and why the Cubs played looser on the road.Dexter also shares how he landed in Chicago, what Joe Maddon told him that changed everything, and why the post-title roster couldn't stay together forever. Then it's life after baseball: Dexter's production company, sports & entertainment management, and wealth advisory work; investing (including a stake tied to Bournemouth in English football); and the mentorship lessons he's picked up from business leaders and friends.Along the way, Jimmy and Dexter riff on communication, team culture, and having tough conversations — the competitive edge athletes carry into business.00:00 Introduction02:43 Game 7 rewind: leadoff HR, momentum swing, rain delay & Heyward speech08:24 Motivation story: the “Ace of Spades” bottles09:43 Game 3 at Wrigley: pitcher duels, crowd energy, fan chaos10:41 After the title: injuries, economics, and the Cubs' breakup12:18 Routine vs. noise: why they played looser on the road13:52 Becoming the Cubs' leadoff: Iowa preview & Joe Maddon's trust17:00 Life after baseball: companies, investments, mentorship & communication lessons24:06 Outro

The Padres aren't done. A shutout of the Cubs forced a Game 3 Thursday at Wrigley. Dylan Cease stepped up. Manny Machado had the swing of his Padres postseason career. And the bullpen. Ohhhh that bullpen. Mike Shildt pushed all the right buttons with their backs against the wall. The guys discuss the win and look ahead to Game 3.
Jerry came back with the sting of the Yankees' loss and Boone defending Weaver, while Gio doubled down that the bats will explode tonight and carry into tomorrow. Morash ripped analytics to shreds, while out west the Dodgers rolled the Reds and the Cubs handled the Padres at Wrigley.
We've seen losses like that before. Nick Pivetta was sharp early, but two homers were too much for the Padres to overcome. After striking first they failed to add on, before going quiet in the back half of Game 1. Jackson Merrill bunted. His fault or a product of the environment? Stars didn't show up. How confident are we that they will on Wednesday? Did wind and shadows at Wrigley impact the Padres? Can they reverse MLB postseason history? Pressure is on Dylan Cease.
The regular season may be over, but Jack and Jeremy have one more game to talk about - it's Part Two of the Tampa Bay Rays in Chicago series - North Side edition. The Gray Grapher graces us with his antics for one last time in 2025. From the moment he raced through security with his grandson, to story he told about pissing off Nicky Lopez, to the accusations of fake autographs from the Wrigley grapher kids - it's all here, to tide us over until next spring. Plus a few goofs from Jeremy, Jack, and the usual annoying fans, enjoy the finale of the 2025 baseball regular season!
It’s International Podcast Day, and we’re celebrating in style! The Cubs are back in the playoffs, facing the Padres for the first time in 40 years, and the ghosts of 1984 are haunting Wrigley like it’s Halloween. Meanwhile, the Cardinals’ season mercifully ended in a brutal sweep at Wrigley, the Bears simultaneously traumatize and inspire the faithful, and both Newcastle and City lost in jaw-dropping fashion.
10/01/25: Joel Heitkamp is joined by the Attorney General of North Dakota, Drew Wrigley, to talk about a wide-ranging criminal investigation regarding explicit images. KFGO News first reported on the investigation last week after Bureau of Criminal Investigation agents under the control of the Attorney General served a warrant at the school for the personal property of specific students. Attorney General Drew Wrigley says since then, two additional warrants have been served. (Joel Heitkamp is a talk show host on the Mighty 790 KFGO in Fargo-Moorhead. His award-winning program, “News & Views,” can be heard weekdays from 8 – 11 a.m. Follow Joel on X/Twitter @JoelKFGO.)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Can the Padres overcome their struggles on the road? And how will the next three days help define the 2025 season?
Jeremy comes to you solo to preview the MLB playoffs and give you his thoughts about the Cubs chances. He also talks about some troubling corndogs he saw and getting a punk rock icon's autograph at Wrigley!
