Is This A Great Game, Or What?

The Brewers and the Rays will meet in the 2026 World Series! What an incredible matchup for so many reasons, including the fact that NEITHER team has ever won a World Series. Baseball fans are going to love seeing two underdogs on the doorstep of making history!
Tim takes us through the star power on both sides, breaks down the managers, and gives us some perspective on how these two teams play the game. There’s plenty to get excited about as we get ready for the Fall Classic!
And for fans of either organization, this week’s Team Tim might bring back some memories! We’re looking back at World Series past to bring you a DOUBLE Team Tim this week.
Plus, we have TWO special guests joining us! Tim Dillard joins us before Game 1 to celebrate the Brewers hosting the opening game of the series, and then a Rays guest joins us Sunday to do the same for Tampa Bay!
Thanks so much for watching or listening, and as always, thanks for being a part of our family!

Game FIVE of the ALCS is in the books, and the Rays are heading home with a 3-2 series lead for Monday night’s game! A valiant effort featuring double-digit hits, small ball, and outstanding defense kept the AL Central Division champs from celebrating a home victory. Tim Kurkjian weighs in on the last two games of this series.
The Rays finished the regular season with 13 more wins than the Guardians, but when was the last time an underdog with that kind of deficit came out on top? We asked Frank from Elias, of course! Kevin Cash has HIGH praise for his guy Rasmussen, even comparing him to a Hall of Famer. Plus, number three hitters are supposed to hit home runs, right?
Team Tim celebrates the patiently waiting Brewers, who are at home watching to see who they'll face in the World Series. Thanks to John Woodward, we're talking about beer, and a whole lot of it!
And don't forget, we have MERCH! You're a member of the family, so you need to get some! The holidays will be here before you know it, so grab your swag at GreatGameOrWhat.com.

Three games into both LCS matchups, Tim Kurkjian breaks down the highs and lows he’s seeing across the playoffs. José Ramírez is a monster, Shohei Ohtani is showing some cracks in the armor, and the Brewers seem unstoppable in a way only baseball fans can truly appreciate.
A huge Quirkjian was discovered during Game 5 of the White Sox-Guardians matchup, and we had to recap it! Plus, On This Date in Baseball History takes us back to perhaps the greatest home run in baseball history. It was that very moment that inspired Tim’s Team Tim selection!

Tim Kurkjian takes us through the LCS matchups, breaking down what each team brings to the table! Jeff is at a bachelor party this week, which means he’s recording from a hotel while Tim is at home. That’s a rare role reversal, and honestly, it’s pretty hilarious.
On This Date in Baseball History brings us the stories of Joe Morgan, Gregg Olson, Norm Cash and more. But it’s the Alphabest tournament that’s really going to blow you away. We’re down to the final four last names competing for the coveted spot, and the stakes have never been higher!
Team Tim is all about the LCS and the greatest plays ever made in postseason history. Can you believe Tim narrowed it down to just these? We can’t either!
Thanks so much for listening and watching, and as always, thanks for being part of our family!
