Sal Frelick surprises KB on The Yak after World Series

Frelick being a Yak guy was never a secret. Big Cat said all October that he laughed every time Frelick came up to bat, because the guy knows everything about New Platson.

World Series Champion @SalFrelick came in and surprised KB on The Yak

The title is real, and it's the first one Milwaukee has ever had. The Brewers beat the Rays 4-1 in Game 5 on October 28 and took the series 4 games to 1. Frelick hit a home run in the Series and then promised to drink 100,000 beers at the parade. Less than a week later he was in the studio with the guys he listens to every week.

The best part is that he really does keep up. Big Cat asked if the postseason run had put him behind on Anus episodes. Frelick said he'd tuned in to last Thursday's to see if they'd say anything about him, and Nick Turani shut that down with 2 words.

“During the post season run did you fall behind on Anus episodes or were you able to keep up”- Big Cat “Yeah I actually did tune into last Thursday’s because I wonder if they are going to say anything”-Sal Frelick “We didn’t” -Nick Turani

SAL FRELICK JOINS THE SHOW!! and KB gives the keys to the states of New Platson to Sal t.co/97Oq1mj0sl

"We didn't" is the most Yak thing possible. The guy just won a World Series, he checks to see if his favorite podcast gave him a shoutout, and they hadn't. To be fair, the Yak was paying attention to the Brewers. Big Cat spent part of the October 27 show arguing about whether Milwaukee even needed defending, one game before the clincher.

Then Frelick showed up the regulars at their own game. He went through the gauntlet, the show's timed trivia run of 57 answers, in his white Brewers jersey. The clock stopped at 1:04.02 and The Yak called it the new record. The clip ends with Frelick celebrating while a host sits with his head in his hands.

SAL FRELICK HAS SET THE GAUNTLET RECORD

So now a World Series champion holds the gauntlet record, and every regular on the show has a new time to chase. He also didn't show up just to celebrate. He came as a superfan, which is how it should be. Next up is Frelick getting a shoutout on Anus, since they owe him one.
