This week on AllNight with Todd Wright on ESPN Radio

11:27 Trot Nixon, Red Sox OF/AllNight Postseason Analyst Todd told Trot about Brian Daubach and how he calls after the Rams lose. Trot says that the one team that can always affect his own mood is Duke Blue Devil basketball. "I went to N.C. State for football and baseball, but when it comes to basketball I'm true blue." Daubach, former teammate Pete Schourek, and Trot are heading to a NASCAR race this weekend. C.T. Nixon knows all too well about the Yankees and the magic they seem to possess. Trot says that Shane Spencer is a gem. "He's one of those gamers..... Shane deserves every opportunity in the world to play left field in New York." Trot said except for that one home run, Byung-Hyun Kim threw the ball well (despite his 61 pitch count). He doesn't blame Bob Brenly for keeping Kim out in the 10th, because it's the World Series and there is no second chance. Trot says that what he's heard about Curt Schilling, he was the one who made the decision to pitch in Game 4, not Brenly. Trot has seen the Yankees pull it out time and again in three years, so the home runs by Tino and Jeter were not a surprise to him. On Mariano Rivera: "His pitches just don't have wood teeth, they have steel teeth."

1:59 Brian Daubach, Red Sox 1B -- Todd was talking about him in the last segment and said, "Hey, Brian if you're listening call us." He was listening on KFNS and called for the final minute of the hour.

12:07 Brian Daubach, Red Sox 1B -- He owed us a phone call, and surprised us by calling in to talk about the Rams first loss, the World Series, and his NASCAR Schedule Watch. He is not worried about "his" Rams. He thought they looked good in defeat and thinks this has now become a great rivalry. He recently bought a new house and has been floored with how much paperwork goes into that. He loves his Dale Earnhardt, Jr. Schedule Watch. He will be going to the North Carolina Speedway this weekend with teammate Trot Nixon and will use his Schedule Watch to keep track of Earnhardt. Todd then cautioned Brian about "why you will be cursed if you are ever mean to Producer Louise," sighting David Justice as an example. Brian promised never to be mean to her when he sees her at Fenway. They wrapped things up talking about the World Series.
