0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:10.320

0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:19.800
<v Speaker 1>He did it all catching a great game from Rokie Sasaki.

0:00:20.239 --> 0:00:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Rushing knows how to get the fire out of Rokie

0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:26.720
<v Speaker 1>throwing the hardest pitches of his major league career tonight.

0:00:27.160 --> 0:00:29.080
<v Speaker 1>How did you get him fired up to do that?

0:00:30.680 --> 0:00:32.480
<v Speaker 2>He was on a big stage. We're in New York.

0:00:33.560 --> 0:00:35.120
<v Speaker 2>We need him to have his best stuff and he

0:00:35.240 --> 0:00:37.639
<v Speaker 2>did he Uh, he gave us a chance to win,

0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:39.680
<v Speaker 2>and ultimately that's all we ask every time he goes

0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:44.120
<v Speaker 2>out there. Obviously the stuff was plus tonight. Yeah. I

0:00:44.200 --> 0:00:46.400
<v Speaker 2>let one scratch cross right there with a little uh

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:49.400
<v Speaker 2>one right through my legs. So uh yeah, that's that's

0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:51.199
<v Speaker 2>a tough one to swallow. But I'm glad Months just

0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:53.600
<v Speaker 2>came up, helped me out there. Obviously helped the boys

0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:55.440
<v Speaker 2>out and we uh pull out a win here in

0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:57.600
<v Speaker 2>the Bronx And obviously, yeah got out into Rookie.

0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:00.279
<v Speaker 1>What was the feeling in the dugout when Months hit

0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:03.040
<v Speaker 1>that home run halfway back to Manhattan.

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:07.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's, uh, the situation of the game, the way

0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:10.760
<v Speaker 2>the game was going. It's uh. Crazy things happen in

0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:12.440
<v Speaker 2>big games, and obviously this was a big one and

0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:13.840
<v Speaker 2>it was a big swing for months. It was. It

0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 2>was pretty fun to.

0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:17.280
<v Speaker 1>Watch the play of the game tonight, though, was the

0:01:17.360 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 1>relay from Paes to Mookie to Dalton rushing on that

0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:24.080
<v Speaker 1>double off the wall by Ben Rice. How were you

0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:27.600
<v Speaker 1>able to be able to to make that play when

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:30.319
<v Speaker 1>the throw took you on the other side of the plate.

0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's a tough play. It's a tough play

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:35.520
<v Speaker 2>for pies. You kind of give up on it to

0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:39.120
<v Speaker 2>an extent. Once the ball like ricochets off the wall

0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:41.480
<v Speaker 2>like that takes Mookie out of line and Mookie's got

0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:43.480
<v Speaker 2>to make an off balanced throw home. It's it's just

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:46.720
<v Speaker 2>a tough play all around. Luckily Mookie puts a good

0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:48.720
<v Speaker 2>throw home. Give me a chance to get back to

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:51.080
<v Speaker 2>the base and apply a tag. It was a rough one.

0:01:51.120 --> 0:01:52.800
<v Speaker 1>Hey, It's got to be fun as the catcher to

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:55.400
<v Speaker 1>know your outfielders, your infielders are gonna give you a

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:57.560
<v Speaker 1>chance to be able to make that type of play

0:01:57.560 --> 0:01:58.480
<v Speaker 1>almost every time.

0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:01.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's uh, it's impressive out of Pahes he does

0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:04.360
<v Speaker 2>it day in, day out. And obviously Mookie, Mickey Roe,

0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 2>Tommy Free, the guys that are in the middle endfield

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:08.960
<v Speaker 2>right there, they give us a chance to make the

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:10.799
<v Speaker 2>out at home with good throws, and it's obviously it's

0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:11.200
<v Speaker 2>a blessing.

0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:14.040
<v Speaker 1>Not a bad catcher knows how to straddle that line.

0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:17.119
<v Speaker 1>Thanks a lot for stopping. Congratulations on a great game.

0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:18.880
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, thanks Mass always good
