As a matter of fact. 0:03:16.360 --> 0:03:19.280 Some people Steve Hartman said Ring Knights better than Ring Day. 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:22.919 It's better, I mean Ring Knights better than Opening Day. 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:28.360 Perhaps he's right. I guess we'll see the celebration and 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:31.679 the ceremony tonight. Whether or not a canrival a low 0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:36.880 rider with two Commissioner's trophies, a flyover, Magic Johnson and 0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:39.800 everything that was out there yesterday, we'll find out. But 0:03:39.880 --> 0:03:44.280 in nineteen fifty seven, part of the move to the 0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:47.920 West Coast by the then Brooklyn Dodgers, the Dodgers and 0:03:47.960 --> 0:03:54.080 Cubs traded entire teams. The Cubs took control of the 0:03:54.120 --> 0:03:57.880 Fort Worthcats of the Texas League, one of the Brooklyn 0:03:57.920 --> 0:04:02.520 Dodgers minor league affiliates, and the Dodgers assumed the Pacific 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:08.200 League's Los Angeles Angels and Wrigley Field in Los Angeles. 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:10.680 Yes, a lot of people don't remember that, but it 0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:11.520 was there. 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:17.840 And the exchange in nineteen fifty seven not only saw 0:04:17.839 --> 0:04:22.560 the Dodgers acquire by taking on the La Angels future 0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:26.919 Hall of Fame manager Sparky Anderson, but a pitcher on 0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:31.040 that nineteen fifty seven Los Angeles Angels team, Tommy. 0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:36.160 Lesorda a deal that will go down in history. Crickets PMS, 0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:38.159 quick hits. I'll make it quick, y'all. 0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:45.600 More trouble for Tiger Woods. 0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:49.080 He was involved in a rollover crash in Jupiter Island, 0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:51.720 Florida day. The crash occurred just after two pm and 0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:54.479 it happened in the same town where Woods lives. No 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.480 injuries reported. He's been arrested for a DUI. 0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:02.159 They did do some in depth outside test and when 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.360 it was a termine, he was placed under under rest 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:07.400 and taken to the Martin County Jail. At the Martin 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:11.279 County Jail and even on scene, we really weren't suspicious 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:13.680 of alcohol being involved in this case, and that proved 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.160 to be true at the jail. So mister Woods did 0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:19.520 a breathalyzer test blew triple zeros. But when it came 0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:21.960 time for us to ask for a year analysis test, 0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:25.200 he refused, And so he's been charged with d UI, 0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:30.200 with property damage and refusal to submit to a lawful test. 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:32.560 In the crash, no one was injured. Mister Woods and 0:05:32.680 --> 0:05:34.800 not seen to be injured at all, and the other 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:38.599 gentlemen were not injured. But this is again, this happened 0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:41.440 a few hours ago. So I've given you the information 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:43.560 that I have right here, right now. 0:05:44.080 --> 0:05:50.880 Well, my initial inclination was to suggest the crash occurred 0:05:51.680 --> 0:05:53.640 because he was reaching out. 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:55.200 You weren't the only one man. 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:56.440 For a bottle of pills. 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:57.320 There was a lot of. 0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.560 A lot of people asked, even before the report of 0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.240 the d u I came out. But there's a lot 0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:05.080 of people. But Matt, you know what I mean, I 0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:07.400 don't what I don't like, you know, and we had 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:10.680 this problem earlier. You know, you're trying to say that 0:06:10.760 --> 0:06:12.560 you're the one that thought of him reaching for the pill. 0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:13.599 Here it is right here. 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:19.360 Yeah, there's there's so much speculation about what happened. My 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:22.719 my speculation is, you know, he still is not fully 0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:24.240 recovered from his back surgery. 0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:27.560 He hasn't played much golf at all. 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:34.880 But let me just say this in anticipation once more. 0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:41.000 I am waiting with baby, and you wait until until you. 0:06:42.400 --> 0:06:44.800 I don't know, you know, I'm not there the baking. 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:49.560 Possibly he was. 0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:55.320 He had a spasms, back spasms, maybe reaching for a painkiller, 0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:59.560 and of cause, you know, you know, a deflection of 0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:03.440 his claim already and his concentration. It only took a moment, 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.400 it does, especially such a dangerous road to go off 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:06.760 the road. 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:08.320 He might have just been. 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:11.520 Reaching for a painkiller or reaching for some relief. 0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:12.680 God, I love it. 0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:18.320 Reaching for a painkiller, reaching for relief. That, by the way, 0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:23.240 is a great way to describe the unfortunate addiction of 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:24.080 popping pills. 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:26.640 What are you doing reaching for relief? 0:07:26.920 --> 0:07:28.000 I'm reaching for relief. 0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:30.880 I've had a deflection of my clarity. 0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:32.520 Got it's so good. 0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:33.480 The dots dow. 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:37.080 He's not good though, you know, no situation and everyone 0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:38.600 was celebrating the hell out of time. 0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:40.160 How about you. Yeah, he was trying to get back 0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:40.920 into the how. 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:42.280 Much gonna come back for the thing? 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:44.480 He's rich enough to where somebody could just take the 0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:47.120 keys at this point, Yeah, take the key. That maybe 0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:48.960 control issues. You know, he's got to be behind the 0:07:49.000 --> 0:07:50.920 wheel instead of having a driver. But you would assume 0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:52.520 if you're worth a billion dollars, maybe you. 0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:53.560 Just just call ubers. 0:07:54.080 --> 0:07:57.040 Yeah, if you don't, I mean just stop, you gotta stop, 0:07:57.200 --> 0:08:00.000 got to stop driving around. Jason Heyward has announced it's 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:03.560 retirement after sixteen seasons that he's spent with the Braves, 0:08:03.560 --> 0:08:05.960 the Cardinals, the Cubs, and who could forget him as 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:09.200 an inspirational Dawyer and that speech he made with the 0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:12.040 Cubs or the World Series and changed everything. 0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:16.400 Well, not to mention, you know, this was Freddy's best friend. 0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:18.400 You know, the two of them came up together in 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:24.840 that Braves organization. They shared their struggles, their triumphs, their tribulations, 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:28.160 really emotional support for each other. So I'm sure an 0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:31.040 emotional day to day for Freddie recognizing, you know, that 0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:35.720 the end has arrived for his bff Hayward, and perhaps 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.880 reflecting in that moment Pee to think about the end 0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:40.520 perhaps coming for him sometime. 0:08:40.640 --> 0:08:43.160 So that might have been why he dressed like Kim 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:49.840 Jong un yesterday coming into Dodger Stadium, very communist military outfit, 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.600 a little bit of mad scientists in there as well. 0:08:53.760 --> 0:08:56.840 Love the outfit. Freddie Nice Nice hire on the stylist 0:08:57.040 --> 0:08:57.600 weir ah. 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:02.240 Don't you Hirelana Svetlana. 0:09:01.679 --> 0:09:08.080 Bitch shired Natasha from Boris and Natasha. The Lakers are 0:09:08.160 --> 0:09:10.480 forty seven and twenty six. They're the three seed in 0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:14.800 the West. They are awesome. Everybody loves the Lakers. We 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:17.439 talked to Don mcclanner in the first hour. With nine 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:21.160 games remaining in the regular season. They host the Brooklyn Nets, 0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:26.559 the sad and hapless Brooklyn Nets today. And just when 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:29.080 you thought the Clippers were never gonna sniff five hundred 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:31.840 or over five hundred again, Matt, they're sniffing it so 0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:34.160 hard they're snorting up cocaine. 0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:37.200 Yeah, they're the eighth seed. They were just the ten 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:39.240 less than a week ago. Now all the way up 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:41.040 in the en that is how tightly packed it is 0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:44.520 in the playing tournament. They are in Indie right now 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:48.360 taking on the worst team in the NBA, Indiana Pacers. 0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:50.080 You can listen to that game in our sister station 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:52.520 AM eleven fifty, which is where they will be regulated 0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:54.400 for the majority of the remainder. 0:09:54.720 --> 0:09:55.160 Relive. 0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:59.439 I believe you've been relegated Matt There has been some regulations, 0:09:59.480 --> 0:10:01.480 but it's all so relegation. 0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:06.840 The NBA has also presented three we talked about this 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:10.160 about a month ago proposals to the league in their 0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:17.319 anti tanking efforts. The first proposal eighteen team lottery, not 0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:20.000 just the teams that missed the playoffs altogether, but also 0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:23.559 the playing team. Second proposal a twenty two team lottery 0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:26.800 that would include the teams that lose in the first round, 0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:30.200 and the third would also be eighteen teams, but they 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:34.800 would have the five worst records, all with even odds, 0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:37.480 and a separate lottery for the top five picks. They're 0:10:37.480 --> 0:10:41.680 talking about combining the previous two seasons instead of just 0:10:41.840 --> 0:10:45.280 one season and having a floor on the minimum number 0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:48.760 of wins you could have. Point being, there's three separate proposals, 0:10:48.920 --> 0:10:52.360 one of them is likely going to be approved after 0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:55.840 the embarrassment that was the NBA this season with the 0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:59.440 teams at the bottom of the standings like the aforementioned sick. 0:10:59.480 --> 0:11:00.760 It's sick. 0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:02.840 It is makes what you're doing. 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:04.240 It's worse than OJ. 0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:09.040 In Washington and Brooklyn and Indiana. I think the Bulls 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:12.120 just shut down the remainder of their starters with like 0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:15.000 ten games left. It is sick and it's worse than 0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:18.000 oj considerably. 0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:20.240 Four games in the old Sweet sixteen. 0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:23.520 Today, Duke and the Johnnies are at the half right now, 0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:27.320 Michigan and Alabama underway in the Midwest Region. Coming up later, 0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:31.520 Yukon versus Michigan State in an angry coach battle, Iowa 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:37.280 State versus Tennessee. If Michigan stated Michigan make it, the 0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:39.880 Big Ten would have five of the Elite eight teams 0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:45.320 still playing.

Less than twenty 0:13:23.240 --> 0:13:27.520 four hours ago. Congratulations to the only team in the 0:13:27.600 --> 0:13:29.680 National League West with a victory. 0:13:30.080 --> 0:13:33.080 Everybody else lost. Huh what about Puto Bayball? I mean, 0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:35.000 what flow? What about the flo. 0:13:36.360 --> 0:13:40.199 As we know were the official opener to the season 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:43.440 and they got housed by the Yankees. Humiliated by the Yankees. 0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:45.960 On Wednesday, had the day off yesterday, so zero and one. 0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:48.160 What happened to the Diamondbacks? Did they win? 0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:55.480 The Padres got Trek scoopled, and the Rockies were part 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:57.200 of the group that didn't even get to start the 0:13:57.240 --> 0:14:01.240 season yesterday Major League Baseball. I did to take a 0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:05.280 look at the Rockies, the Marlins and the A's and say, 0:14:06.600 --> 0:14:08.079 just give us one more day before we got to 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:11.240 start watching that. Uh, they suck so bad. They wanted 0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:13.160 nothing to do with any of those teams. So the 0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:15.640 Dodgers currently the only team with a victory in the 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:16.360 NL West. 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:17.160 We had bunting. 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:20.400 We had a flyover, we had a Magic Johnson first pitch, 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:22.600 we had an stadium sign. 0:14:22.760 --> 0:14:24.720 I didn't see any bunting. I mean, I hate to 0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:27.000 be a curmudgeon, but I looked up and I you know, 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:30.320 they don't. They kind of digitally bunt, you know. But 0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:32.320 it's not the same as the Draperies. 0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:36.120 I mean, but you know, well, we had bunting in 0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:39.360 our suite. You know, Dave Wee broke out the bunting. 0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:40.320 Yeah, but that's I mean. 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:44.400 I'm just saying, I'm glad the sales guys got the 0:14:44.440 --> 0:14:45.880 but we got bunt. 0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:49.360 I'm sorry, corrections and retractions. 0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:56.560 Bunting in our suite show. 0:14:56.600 --> 0:15:01.720 Hey o'tani passed out four thousand dollars Aco watches in 0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:04.520 an effort to spur his team. 0:15:05.000 --> 0:15:05.840 Didn't get one of those. 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:09.440 No, but I do believe Friedman said he will. 0:15:10.040 --> 0:15:12.560 That was an oversight and then we will called afterwards, 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:15.800 said Tim Kats's wrist will remain bare. Don't you ever 0:15:15.920 --> 0:15:18.640 ask anything of that two lane graduate hour. 0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:20.840 We had a low rider. 0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:24.000 We had players sitting in the back seat like it 0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:28.920 was parade day with commissioner trophies. Today the celebration will 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:32.400 continue with championship rings that will be so gaudy you 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:34.440 couldn't possibly wear one out in public. 0:15:35.120 --> 0:15:35.880 Uh, Brad. 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:41.400 On your knuncles, Yes, do you happen to have a bagel? 0:15:41.440 --> 0:15:45.400 You would like warm? Brad Paisley will sing the national anthem. 0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:49.880 All of that is great for baseball, you would think, 0:15:50.320 --> 0:16:01.480 certainly not bad for baseball. Indeed, Cania afternoon evening and 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:05.080 they delivered our man. David Vasse made the proclamation could 0:16:05.160 --> 0:16:08.280 not have been more on point. When talking about Timmy 0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:09.800 Trumpet and Edwin Diaz, he. 0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:11.000 Said, what not? 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:12.360 Can I hear it tonight? 0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:16.440 Suggesting Diaz would have no business begin in that game, 0:16:16.480 --> 0:16:20.560 and in fact, they did put an eighth spot on Gallony. 0:16:20.640 --> 0:16:21.320 Yeah, my son. 0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:24.280 My son asked me if Timmy Trumpet was going to 0:16:24.320 --> 0:16:26.960 come out tonight, and I said, well, it's one run, 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:31.760 I got three innings left and then and it was over. 0:16:32.080 --> 0:16:34.440 And then we then, yeah, you queued it up on 0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:38.000 your Spotify, we did that Trumpet. I said, maybe tomorrow 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:38.560 we parted. 0:16:38.760 --> 0:16:45.200 Alex play Narcos, Timmy trumping. Uh, last year high leverage reliever, right, 0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:47.560 that's what Edwin Diaz is. Last year things got so 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:50.400 bad and it is wild to look back and think 0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:54.480 of it in this context, through this lens. The back 0:16:54.560 --> 0:16:57.200 end of the bullpen was so bad. They used a 0:16:57.280 --> 0:17:01.040 rookie who was not a good starter, who could not 0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:04.680 stay healthy, who missed a massive chunk of the season, 0:17:05.320 --> 0:17:09.080 including time right up until the start of the playoffs, 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:12.359 to be their closer. That is how bad it was. 0:17:12.440 --> 0:17:14.800 Let's take the guy that wasn't great as a starter, 0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:17.000 who hasn't pitched in about. 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:18.879 Well, they have no left seas and then they're the 0:17:18.960 --> 0:17:22.240 Dodgers are all lefties. And even though I'm dyslexic, even 0:17:22.280 --> 0:17:24.360 I understand that that's a bad matchup. 0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:26.960 That's why. That's why Vassay said. 0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:30.240 The I was talking about Rokie as their closer last 0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:33.760 year versus this year with Edwin Diez. 0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:36.399 Oh yeah, they the Dodgers are a lot better shape 0:17:36.560 --> 0:17:38.600 with the closer to not have a guy that looks 0:17:38.600 --> 0:17:39.760 like he's gonna cry. 0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:42.399 Right Like, that's what they went with last year in 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:44.600 the postseason. What are we gonna go with? 0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:46.920 That guy? That guy? That guy? 0:17:47.520 --> 0:17:50.800 Okay, and it worked this time around. Though they bring 0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:53.480 in the top player on the market, they allow everyone 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:55.480 else to settle into whatever place they earn. 0:17:55.520 --> 0:17:56.119 And what does it do? 0:17:56.280 --> 0:17:59.000 We saw it last night, get a bunch of offense 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:03.400 going spring baseball, be damned. Blake Trining was a nightmare 0:18:03.400 --> 0:18:08.880 in Arizona. Tanner Scott was worse, but regular season both fantastic. 0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:12.280 Blake trying fifteen pitches, did give up that single to 0:18:12.359 --> 0:18:17.560 center and didn't need an absolutely spectacular, sell everything out 0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:20.639 diving catch by Paez to start the inning to help 0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:22.520 him out a little bit. But after that he's throwing 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:25.320 ninety seven on a bunch of pitches. He gets out 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:29.080 of an inning allowing nothing. Eighth inning, Our dear friend 0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:33.520 will Klein World Series hero happy to see him celebrated 0:18:33.920 --> 0:18:37.119 with an entrance from the bullpen, standing oh by the 0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:40.280 crowd for the effort last year. In the eighteen inning contest, 0:18:40.680 --> 0:18:44.520 freaking guy comes in and throws nine pitches nine times. 0:18:44.680 --> 0:18:49.080 Eight of those were strikes. Nine pitches eight strikes, including 0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:52.040 a strikeout, a four pitch strikeout followed by two weak 0:18:52.080 --> 0:18:55.280 ass grounders coming right back to him. I'm not saying 0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:58.639 that there's a carryover for Will Klein after his World 0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:02.320 Series heroics, not saying the Diamondbacks are a top offense, 0:19:02.760 --> 0:19:04.480 but you can only pitch to the guys that step 0:19:04.520 --> 0:19:06.840 into the batter's box. And he was able to dominate 0:19:07.280 --> 0:19:09.680 those three. And it did end with Marte, who gave 0:19:09.760 --> 0:19:12.800 Yamamoto some fits, starting with that first inning at Bath 0:19:12.840 --> 0:19:15.680 that went ten pitches. And if nine pitches wasn't impressive enough, 0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:18.240 how about our other dear friend, Tanner. 0:19:18.000 --> 0:19:21.399 Scott and his beautiful beard. Wow, coming in. 0:19:22.440 --> 0:19:24.720 You, I mean, you are a shameless person. 0:19:28.080 --> 0:19:34.040 And getting Corby and Carrol Perdomo and moreno to pop up, 0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:36.600 ground out, pop up eight pitches. He's like, oh yeah, 0:19:36.640 --> 0:19:39.520 we'll climb none. Watch this eight Let's get the hell 0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:42.639 out of here. We talked about starters perhaps being the 0:19:42.680 --> 0:19:45.000 one issue that the Dodgers will have to overcome here early, 0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:48.479 but they do have Yamamoto, Sho Heo, Tani, Tyler Glass. 0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:50.879 Now tonight, it'll be m and Sheehan. At some point, 0:19:50.920 --> 0:19:53.359 Blake Snell's coming back, and then he'll probably disappear for 0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:54.879 a couple months, and then he'll come back, and then 0:19:54.920 --> 0:19:57.840 he'll disappear, and then he'll come back, and someone's gonna 0:19:57.840 --> 0:19:59.960 crow like a rooster about his start in the playoffs. 0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:04.480 But we're wringing our hands over a six starter or 0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:05.200 a flex starter. 0:20:05.320 --> 0:20:07.560 I mean outside we are ringing our hands. 0:20:08.119 --> 0:20:10.440 Well many are You're the. 0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:12.960 One wringing his hands like Pookakua with those two guys. 0:20:12.960 --> 0:20:17.760 Oh, how dare you outside of the Phillies with Zach Wheeler. 0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:21.639 Let's do a miserly imitation that's out celebration. 0:20:21.960 --> 0:20:22.840 Okay, I'll do it. 0:20:24.960 --> 0:20:28.640 You guys should come to the facility. It's a short week. 0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:30.080 You guys should come to practice. 0:20:31.200 --> 0:20:35.120 Okay, Pooka, I really felt good about last night, man. 0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:38.639 That was a glorious Yeah, it really was for me. 0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:41.359 How does the bullpen line up to get the DZ 0:20:41.359 --> 0:20:43.399 and last night it was a hell of a great start. 0:20:43.440 --> 0:20:46.520 You still have Vessia, you still have Jack Dryer, you 0:20:46.600 --> 0:20:51.399 still have Edwin Diaz, Robleski, all those dudes. But it 0:20:51.480 --> 0:20:54.240 was a lot of fun, including the offense. Every single 0:20:54.280 --> 0:20:56.680 batter got on base. Freddie the only guy without a hit. 0:20:57.960 --> 0:21:00.680 They only struck out four times, nobody more than once. 0:21:01.000 --> 0:21:03.640 And if you wanted to pick one guy to have 0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:06.280 a big game, even though it's the first game of 0:21:06.280 --> 0:21:08.680 the twenty twenty six campaign, to get the monkey off 0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:10.720 his back, why not the dude that was four for 0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:14.160 fifty one in the playoffs. And you want to talk 0:21:14.200 --> 0:21:17.600 about a commercial for the benefits of gambling. As I 0:21:17.720 --> 0:21:22.600 was watching the NBC broadcast, when Andy pie has dug 0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:27.479 that back foot into the batter's box, they flashed the 0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:32.600 anytime homer from fan duel, anytime home run Andy Pye's 0:21:32.720 --> 0:21:36.320 plus eight fifty and then bang three run dog, and 0:21:36.440 --> 0:21:39.439 all anybody at home could think was, Man, if I 0:21:39.480 --> 0:21:42.680 had put one hundred thousand dollars and Andy Pyte, everything 0:21:42.680 --> 0:21:44.480 would have changed. You know, I'd have eight and a 0:21:44.520 --> 0:21:47.439
