Joe Davis was apparently completely locked in during this year’s MLB World Series.
The Los Angeles Dodgers announcer Davis appeared this week on the “Waddle & Slivy” podcast. During the episode, Davis spoke about calling this year’s World Series between the Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays for FOX and made a gross admission — that he didn’t go to the bathroom at all during the 18th-inning marathon in Game 3.
“I actually didn’t pee, so that’s something,” said Davis, per Awful Announcing. “I swear. Yeah, afterwards, I was like, ‘Dang, that’s good stuff, dude.’
“Bladder size is not a strength of mine either, but I dug deep for it,” Davis added. “I do not like the window seat because I don’t like bugging the guy in the aisle. I go a lot. I just happened to be on my game that night, I guess.”
Officially, Game 3 of the World Series lasted for six hours and 39 minutes before Freddie Freeman won it with a walkoff home run to lead off the bottom of the 18th. Davis called the entire affair as the lead play-by-play man for FOX, and now we know that he remarkably didn’t need a single bathroom break that entire time.
Either Davis really kept the fluids to a minimum or his mind was so preoccupied by the game that nature’s call took a backseat. In any case, it appears that Davis definitely has one up over Joe Buck, who admitted a few years ago to peeing in the booth while calling a touchdown during an NFL game.
