Bryan Cranston Takes Us Through What Was Going Through His Mind the Hours Before the Dodgers Won the World Series

To send you into the weekend, it was a twofer on Pardon My Take. Mr. Cat and Mr. Commenter welcomed on recurring guest Trey Wingo, in addition to actor Bryan Cranston. Of course, Walter White came on the show to discuss "Breaking Bad," his Dodgers winning the World Series, and much, much more. With the Dodgers finally getting over the hump in 2020, what was going through Cranston's mind during the final few outs? Let's see what he had to say:

Mr. Commenter: When you were watching that last game, were you like, what the hell is going on? Why the hell are they taking Blake Snell out? Like, you obviously were excited that they were taking him from the game, but what were your emotions going those last three rollercoaster innings?

Bryan Cranston: I thought, finally. If you get that guy out, in fact, I think the Dodgers should pick that guy up. You know, they're talking about possibly trading him. I think he's a gamer, that guy is tough to beat, former Cy Young Winner. I couldn't understand why they took him out. And I thought, oh, so that's going to be debated for quite a long time. I think [Kevin] Cash is going to face a lot of criticism for that for years to come.

Mr. Commenter: Are you a numbers guy, like a Sabermetrics matter guy? Because I know that it can be justified in theory, going back and looking at, you know, the trends when he gives up a certain number of hits after he's going through the lineup twice. But then there's also the other side where it's like, this is your Cy Young guy. This is the guy that got you here. Let him keep pitching. Which side of the debate would you find yourself on?

Bryan Cranston: Well, as an actor, you are innately an emotional person. You are in tune with your gut. How does something feel? What's your sensibility about something? So it's totally not numbers, not the business end of it. And, you know, he gives up X amount of ground balls. And so the next pitch should be such and such. I think he went with the numbers and didn't go with his gut. And you saw, I mean, Blake Snell. No pitcher really should want to come out unless they injure themselves and realize, "I'm done." But he wasn't close to being done, so I couldn't understand. But I rejoiced.

I love that Mr. Commenter is asking Cranston the hard-hitting questions regarding Sabermetrics. Good for him and the rest of the celebrities out in Los Angeles who FINALLY got that World Series victory for the first time in a long time.
