Speaker 1: part of the baseball facility, and I go out there
Speaker 1: and throw the ball around.
Speaker 2: That's what you do, just to hang out, relax, just
Speaker 2: play catch with a buddy exactly.

Speaker 2: goes out there on the mound. All of a sudden,
Speaker 2: a guy in catcher's gear with a cattri's mask comes out.
Speaker 2: Big dude. All of a sudden, he takes the catcher's
Speaker 2: mask off, and it's Aaron Donald.
Speaker 3: This sounds more like ww E than than baseball. But

Speaker 2: Are you getting tired of people asking you about Aaron
Speaker 2: Donald wanting to play with you?
Speaker 3: I understand.

Speaker 1: he's the greatest defensive player this this town has ever had,
Speaker 1: and definitely the greatest defensive tackle that we've ever seen.
