Speaker 2: We will monitor throughout the evening.

78
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,560
Speaker 4: All right, Yesterday, I you know, I have a kind

79
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 4: of a dorky thing that I do on opening day,

80
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 4: and yesterday was perfect to do it. I always park

81
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 4: at Newport on the levee, and I usually will if

82
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 4: the weather is accommodating, I'll walk the bridge. And I

83
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 4: always say, there's something to me that feels like I'm

84
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 4: walking towards the start of a baseball season as you're

85
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 4: walking across the bridge in northern Kentucky. Too great American Ballpark,

86
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 4: And the weather yesterday was just fantastic, and there was

87
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 4: a buzz around downtown and just a vibe. And I

88
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 4: stopped at the clock and I watched the number of people.

89
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 4: There was a line of people waiting to take a

90
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 4: photo in front of the clock, and I got a

91
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,679
Speaker 4: picture with the clock, and you could hear the clock

92
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 4: playing take me out to the ballgame. It was just

93
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 4: the really coolest thing. I mean, and I've said this

94
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 4: all week. If you had told me Joey Voto is

95
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 4: going to give the Reds a gift, what do you

96
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 4: think he would give them, and then you said, how

97
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 4: about a clock. I would have said, yeah, that sounds

98
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 4: like Joey, just because Joey is a very unique individual

99
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 4: and that is a very unique gift. The placement is perfect,

100
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 4: the look of it is perfect. It just the awe

101
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 4: around it. Yesterday watching people admire the clock was something.

102
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 4: And then unfortunately there was the baseball game. And again

103
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 4: I've I've got four different angles I'd like to approach

104
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 4: yesterday's game from with your involvement. Storyline number one is

105
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 4: Andrew Rabbit and had you told me that, and I'll

106
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 4: go back. Maybe I should preface all this by saying this.

107
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 4: Tito referred to this as overreaction Friday, the day after

108
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 4: Opening Day. If you win, you're the greatest team ever.

109
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 4: If you lose, you're the worst team ever. And so

110
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 4: we've had a night to sleep on it, and we're now,

111
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 4: what twenty about twenty four hours removed from game one

112
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 4: of one sixty two. So perhaps you've had a chance

113
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,599
Speaker 4: to take a deep breath and now you can join

114
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 4: the conversation. And I would start here. Had I told

115
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 4: you that Andrew Rabbit would fire six shoutout innings on

116
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 4: Opening Day, you would have signed up for that, especially

117
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 4: after the way he struggled in the spring. No matter

118
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 4: what the debate is about the merits of spring and

119
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 4: how much a matter happened to Had I told you

120
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 4: prior to yesterday, all right, Andrew Rabbit gives you six shutout,

121
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,160
Speaker 4: You'd say I'll take it. In fact, I would argue,

122
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,119
Speaker 4: had the Reds rallied to win yesterday seven to six,

123
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 4: and he hadn't pitched well and his struggles had continued,

124
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 4: maybe he gives up I don't know, five runs in

125
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 4: four innings, but the Reds win the game winning game

126
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 4: one of one sixty one would have been would have

127
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 4: been great, but watching Andrew Abbot struggle again would have

128
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 4: been alarming.

129
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 2: What I've liked to see him win yesterday.

130
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 4: Absolutely, I think the fact that Andrew Abbot pitched well

131
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 4: supersedes one game out of one sixty two in the

132
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 4: grand scheme of things. Now, there was debate last night

133
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 4: on on Kelsey Chevrolet Extra Innings. When isn't their debate

134
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 4: on Kelsey Chevrolet Extra Innings about Terry Francona and the

135
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 4: idea of taking Andrew Rabbit out after six innings and

136
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 4: eighty three pitches.

137
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 2: I was fine with it. That's not a second guess.

138
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 4: When he walked off the mound, I already started to

139
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 4: write down his line because I figured six innings, eighty

140
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 4: three pitches, scoreless game. What a start on opening day

141
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 4: to the bullpen. Next, I want to get into that,

142
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 4: I thought the second storyline of the day. Reds were

143
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 4: shut out on opening day for the first time since

144
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 4: twenty eighteen, and it would be impossible not to have

145
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 4: felt the DejaVu of all of it. Yesterday. Season ago,

146
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 4: the Reds were shut out thirteen times. Season ago, they

147
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 4: managed one run in a game twenty one times, they

148
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 4: managed two runs in a game twenty times. They scored

149
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 4: fewer than four runs in a third of their games

150
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 4: last season, and yesterday strikeouts were a thing twelve and

151
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 4: yet I would offer this, and I know it'll probably

152
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 4: fall on deaf ears. To the extent of the larger

153
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 4: sample size is last year's one sixty two. I get that,

154
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 4: But for at least yesterday, consider this. Garrett Crochet is

155
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 4: of a handful of the best pitchers in baseball.

156
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 2: He finished second in Cy Young Award voting to Terrek Skubel.

157
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 2: Last year.

158
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 4: He went eighteen and five. His earned run average was

159
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 4: two fifty nine. He struck out more batters than any

160
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 4: pitcher in Major League Baseball last year two hundred and

161
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 4: fifty five. He was an All Star. And I've heard

162
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 4: people say, well, the Reds are gonna have to learn

163
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 4: to beat good pitching. Well, who really does beat good pitching?

164
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 4: I mean that's the point. They're good pitchers because they

165
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 4: really don't get beat or knocked around. I mean, he

166
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 4: won eighteen games last season. He had an earned run

167
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 4: average of two and a half, So factor that in.

168
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 4: And oh, by the way, they faced two relievers in

169
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 4: Garrett Whitlock and Eraldus Chapman, who are two of the

170
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 4: best relievers in the game. A good guy Eraondus Chapman

171
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 4: last year, somehow at his age, had an earned run

172
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 4: average of one seventeen. Whitlock and Chapman are locked down relievers.

173
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 4: So the he's got those three guys yesterday in addition

174
00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 4: to one you probably never heard of. But I'm focusing

175
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 4: on on those three. Not an excuse, just the reality

176
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 4: of the situation. But I do want to get into

177
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 4: the offense and clutch hitting and the strikeouts. I thought

178
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 4: third storyline was South Stewart, not a bad opening day

179
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 4: first one for a twenty two year old. Three hits,

180
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 4: three of the team's four hits in your first opening

181
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 4: day appearance, two doubles, and man, it is impossible not

182
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 4: to be impressed by and excited by just the way

183
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 4: the way he carries himself and the way he the

184
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:36,040
Speaker 4: energy he plays with, and the swagger.

185
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 2: The confidence.

186
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 4: And I remember Tom Nichols, outstanding voice of the Dayton Dragons,

187
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 4: telling me last year or the year before, South Stewart's

188
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 4: the type of guy you're gonna love on your team,

189
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 4: and opponents are gonna hate him because he's really like

190
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 4: raw raw, and he'll pound his chest and he'll be

191
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,080
Speaker 4: real demonstrative and the other teams are gonna say, who

192
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 4: is this guy? I don't like him, but you know

193
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 4: what I think this team it's a little bit of that.

194
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 4: And watching him swing the bat, for goodness sakes, I

195
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 4: thought he broke his hand. Then he got two hits

196
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,560
Speaker 4: after he didn't apparently hopefully knock on wood break his hand.

197
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 4: I want to get into the day that was for

198
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 4: South Stewart, and then the fourth and final talking point

199
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 4: tonight would be the ABS. The ABS Challenge system automated

200
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:23,239
Speaker 4: ball strike. If you wondered about the impact and strategy

201
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 4: of the new automated ball strike system, I give you yesterday.

202
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 4: There were three moments of note in that game, from

203
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 4: the fourth inning with au Aeo Suarez to the seventh

204
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 4: inning with Tyler Stevenson, to the ninth inning with Roman Anthony.

205
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 4: This isn't just this isn't just a system that's going

206
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,680
Speaker 4: to clean up a ball strike. This is a system

207
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 4: that is going to have a sizable impact on innings

208
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 4: and games. And I got to tell you when Connor

209
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 4: Phillips walked off the mound yesterday, took four steps off

210
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,679
Speaker 4: the thinking he had struck out Roman Anthony to end

211
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 4: the threat with two on and two out in the

212
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 4: ninth inning, only to be told, wait a minute, challenge overturned,

213
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 4: that was a ball. Imagine if you were Connor Phillips

214
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 4: and thinking you had just struck out the guy with

215
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 4: three hits, Roman Anthony, and you got out of a jam,

216
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 4: and you're pumped and you're going back to the dugout,

217
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 4: let's get a run, only to be told hang on

218
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 4: turning and seeing that automated strike replay up on the

219
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 4: scoreboard indicate that was not strike three. This inning is

220
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 4: still going on, going back up to the top of

221
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 4: the mound, towing the rubber, having Anthony extend the inning.

222
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 4: Two more hits play two runs, all the result of

223
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 4: what happened after an ABS challenge overturn, huge moment, one

224
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 4: nothing versus three nothing. So those are those are the

225
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 4: four things I jotted down and thought we would really

226
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 4: talk about tonight at five one, three, seven, four, nine,

227
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,600
Speaker 4: eight hundred the big one, pick one, and we'll.

228
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 2: Discuss maybe a pick two.

229
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 4: It's RNL Carrier Sports Talk presented by Kelsey Chevallet seven

230
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:13,240
Speaker 4: hundred WLW, Lexington with Kentucky Basketball, Kentucky Sports Radio and

231
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 4: Matt Jones. Reporting that Alvin Brooks, the third associated head coach,

232
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 4: not expected to return for next season, join Mark Polk's

233
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 4: staff from the start. This is his second year, hired

234
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 4: in April of twenty twenty four and uh not coming back.

235
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 4: No details on where he may be hitded, but not

236
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 4: expected to return to UK next season. Let's jump into

237
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 4: the phone, jump into the Reds conversation. Heck, you have

238
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 4: Friday night talking some baseball in Amelia ed you were

239
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 4: on seven hundred WLW.

240
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 5: Well, it's I felt like I was watching a rerun

241
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 5: from last year. It's the same story. Man, twelve strikeouts

242
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,839
Speaker 5: out of twenty seven putouts. You're telling me that they

243
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 5: are at that forty four percent of those putouts or strikeouts.

244
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 5: How are you gonna win games like that?

245
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 6: Yeah?

246
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 4: And man, if you look in the six, seven eighth

247
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 4: where they had opportunities, it was really the strikeouts that

248
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 4: just I mean, no, no ball and play means nobody's

249
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 4: forced to make a play, make a throw, catch the ball,

250
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 4: all that, and those are just killer moments and strikeouts

251
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 4: did nothing.

252
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, you have yes, Salas Stewart, he's batt in a

253
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 5: seven fifty, Well you have Sworez he's striking out at

254
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 5: a seven to fifty eight.

255
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 4: Well, I mean now now, now hang on now, to

256
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 4: be fair, I mean that's that's one game in four

257
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 4: plate appearances. I mean, we're not drawing samples in comparisons.

258
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 4: After four at bats for those two guys.

259
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 5: It's time to win a pennant, you know.

260
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 2: And well you can't win a pennant on merch the

261
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 2: twenty eighth.

262
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 5: You can't. But to your point of you know, these

263
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 5: are good pitchers. You got to learn how to hit

264
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 5: those good pictures.

265
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 4: Well, but does anybody? But but who really does hit?

266
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 4: I mean, who hit Gary Crochet last year? If you

267
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 4: had a two to fifty five.

268
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 5: And run average, you know, yes, Salas Stewart said in

269
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 5: a second with nobody out and they hated him. There,

270
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 5: play small ball against those good pictures. Otherwise, why don't

271
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 5: you just rest your starters, play the backups and wave

272
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 5: the white flag. You got to learn how to do

273
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 5: something against those good pictures. You're never gonna win a pennant.

274
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, well you have a point there. Eventually you're gonna

275
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 4: have to beat him, no doubt, ed. Thank you, good

276
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 4: hearing from you. Andrew Abbot talked about the performance after

277
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 4: the game, and he was the other than Matt McClain.

278
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 4: He was the storyline of became the storyline of spring

279
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 4: training and what's up with Andrew Rabbit? Why is any comfortable?

280
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 4: And I remember Tito last week you heard may have

281
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 4: heard this earlier in the week. Tito, prior to his

282
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 4: last start last Saturday in Goodyear, had walked up to

283
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 4: Andrew and put his arm around him and kind of said,

284
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 4: you know what, you kind of stink right now. He

285
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 4: kind of one of those break the ice moments and

286
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 4: talked with him about you know, things are going to

287
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 4: be fine, and Derrek Johnson had a similar conversation with him,

288
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 4: as related by Andrew. Take a listen to Andrew Rabbit

289
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 4: after the game on talking with Derek and Tito, his

290
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 4: confidence never waning, about being taken out yesterday and about

291
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 4: game one of still a one and sixty two game season.

292
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 4: Here's Andrew Rabbit.

293
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 6: I think based off that conversation kind of you know,

294
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 6: revitalized it. You know, you felt down, you're dwelling, and

295
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 6: you're frustrated, but was able to move forward, forget about

296
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 6: that stuff and focus on the next pitch, the next

297
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 6: at bath, the next game, and I feel like I

298
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 6: did a good job today of doing that. I never

299
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 6: doubt myself. Frustration and doubt are two different things. Like

300
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 6: I'm frustrated on the results per se, but I'm never

301
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 6: gonna doubt my talent, my abilities.

302
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 2: It's what's got me here.

303
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 6: It's it's gonna keep me here, hopefully, and you know,

304
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 6: every day never gonna change that. Tito had met me

305
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 6: at the stairs, so that was pretty much game over

306
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 6: as soon as that. As soon as that happens, it's

307
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 6: a long, long season. As we know, we're going to

308
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 6: see each other a lot more fans are gonna have

309
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 6: a lot more opportunities to come out and see his play.

310
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 2: You know, it's one game, it's one day.

311
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 6: You know, use the off day reset, come ready to

312
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 6: go against Sonny and the Red Sox on Saturday.

313
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 4: Andrew Rabbit yesterday, and I'll say this again, and I

314
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 4: took heat for it live night.

315
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 2: I'll probably take hate for it today.

316
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 4: Had he pitched poorly yesterday and they won, I think

317
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 4: the overriding concern would have been Andrew Abbit not winning

318
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 4: one game out of one hundred.

319
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 2: And sixty two. I think that's the takeaway.

320
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 4: Andrew Rabbit pitched lights out yesterday, tell us some early

321
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,959
Speaker 4: traffic early on and got out of it and then

322
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 4: settled down. There was a debate last night of the

323
00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 4: idea of Tito taking him out after six innings at

324
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 4: eighty three pitches, and again I was fine with it.

325
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 4: I expected it when he walked from the mound. It's

326
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,199
Speaker 4: early in the season. There's no reason to push it.

327
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 4: Especially with the current state of the Reds rotation. The

328
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 4: Reds really really need Andrew Abbot, and he delivered yesterday.

329
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 2: And if We're being honest. The bullpen needed work.

330
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,160
Speaker 4: Let's remember there was no bullpen used on Tuesday night

331
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 4: because they threw Burns and Louder in the Milwaukee game.

332
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 4: There was no game on Wednesday. The bullpen needed some work. Yesterday.

333
00:17:56,760 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 4: Is getting another off day today so I can envision

334
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 4: and hear the fan complaints come Saturday if the bullpen

335
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:09,440
Speaker 4: looked rusty because they hadn't been used. So you got

336
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 4: six strong innings out of Andrew Rabbit and then you

337
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 4: turn to a fully rested bullpen. The most pitches that

338
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:20,880
Speaker 4: and Andrew Rabbit had thrown in goodyear was eighty four.

339
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 2: He threw eighty three yesterday.

340
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 4: In the spring, his pitches by start as he got

341
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 4: ramped up, he threw twenty seven, twenty seven, forty three,

342
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,880
Speaker 4: sixty three, sixty nine, seventy six, eighty four. And then

343
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 4: on opening Day in much more adrenaline driven, much bigger,

344
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,400
Speaker 4: a much bigger situation where it means facing major league

345
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 4: hitters a lot more stress through eighty three. I checked

346
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 4: out around opening day yesterday, and I took out Paul

347
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,800
Speaker 4: Skeens because he didn't make it out of the first inning.

348
00:18:54,400 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 4: But on opening Yesterday's opening Day games, starting pitchers averaged

349
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 4: throwing seventy six pitches. There were just four pitchers yesterday

350
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 4: and eleven games, so twenty two starters who topped ninety pitches.

351
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,879
Speaker 4: One Hunter Brown was allowed to throw one hundred and

352
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 4: two for some reason. But the average opening day starter

353
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 4: yesterday seventy six pitches. Andrew Rabbit through eighty three. You

354
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 4: know you you get him out after six. It's clean,

355
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 4: he's pitched well, he feels good. Scoreless game in comes

356
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 4: Pierce Johnson with a clean inning to begin the inning.

357
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 4: You know you also, you can't complain about pitchers getting hurt.

358
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 4: Red's pitchers getting hurt. Then complain when Terry Francona takes

359
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 4: a guy out after six innings in his first regular

360
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:56,880
Speaker 4: season start of the season with an already unstable rotation.

361
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,360
Speaker 4: You can't have it both ways. Now, I get it.

362
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 4: The bullpen willowed three runs. Tito didn't anticipate, expect have

363
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,400
Speaker 4: reasonably the bullpen was going to give up three runs.

364
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,439
Speaker 4: I'd still have taken out at one day later. I

365
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 4: still would have taken him out after six innings and

366
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:21,199
Speaker 4: eighty three pitches. You five, one, three, seven, four, nine, seven, one,

367

Speaker 4: react as Tito says the overreaction. Friday, we head to

375
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 4: Anderson Ferry. Matthew, Welcome to seven hundred WLW.

376
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 7: Hey, how you doing.

377
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 2: I'm well how about you?

378
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:03,160
Speaker 7: I will thank you. So I was at the game

379
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 7: yesterday and I I want to say first of all

380
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 7: that I like the ABS challenge system. It's intriguing to me,

381
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 7: and you know, I wanted to learn more about it.

382
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 7: And I you know, I guess some people maybe don't

383
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,720
Speaker 7: realize that it's not this is not like robo umps.

384
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 7: You know, it's still still being called by human beings.

385
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 7: It's just there's the opportunity to challenge. And I was

386
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 7: reading something it's kind of interesting how they determine the

387
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 7: strike zone. You probably know this is based on like

388
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 7: a percentage of the player's height at the low lower

389
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,880
Speaker 7: ending like twenty seven point something percentage of their height

390
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 7: in the upper end at like fifty three point something percentage.

391
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,959
Speaker 7: So they were comparing two of the best hitters in

392
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 7: the American League, Jose Oltluve who's five foot six and

393
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 7: Aaron Judge who's six foot seven. So you know, Aaron

394
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,439
Speaker 7: Judge obviously has a different strike zone and a larger

395
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 7: strike zone than Jose al tub but you know, on

396
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 7: par you know, it's it's appropriate for each player, right.

397
00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 7: And I also learned that they measure the players during

398
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 7: spring training, uh standing like in their bare feet or

399
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,199
Speaker 7: and they have to stand you know, straight up, so

400
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 7: the crowd, the whole crowd is taken out of it.

401
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 7: But it's really fascinating. And one other thing they apparently

402
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 7: experiment that it with the idea that the strike zone

403
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 7: was like a three D pentagon, you know, stuff like

404
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 7: the plate. But apparently that plus some kind of weird

405
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 7: anomalies that they weren't expecting. So I guess in terms

406
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 7: of the I guess you call it the horizontal access.

407
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 7: It's measured from like halfway back, like eight point five

408
00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 7: inches back from the front of the plate, if that

409
00:22:59,200 --> 00:22:59,640
Speaker 7: makes sense.

410
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 4: And Matthew, you've hit on so many great points because

411
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 4: it's led to there's still such a fact finding aspect

412
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 4: of this and and kind of feeling out and and

413
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 4: how the the high strike or the curveball is going

414
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 4: to be.

415
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,440
Speaker 2: It's just and there all the answers aren't there.

416
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 4: It's gonna be like a work in progress to try

417
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,479
Speaker 4: to figure out for the players and the and the

418
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 4: catchers and the and the hitters, you know, all the

419
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 4: kind of new nuances because there's there's multiple layers of

420
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 4: nuance to all this.

421
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, indeed, So anyway, I'm looking forward to the rest

422
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 7: of the season.

423
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 4: And go red Go Reds. Matthew, have a great weekend.

424
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 4: Yeah as well, thank you.

425
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

426
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 4: The more you read on it, the more intriguing the

427
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 4: whole aspect of the A b S becomes. In Milford

428
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 4: we go, Hey, Tom, welcome to sports Talk.

429
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,439
Speaker 8: Hey Lance, how are you doing today?

430
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 2: Hang it in there? How about you?

431
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 9: Hey?

432
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 10: Not too bad?

433
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 6: Hey.

434
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 8: I mean I'm probably more of a Bengals fan than

435
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 8: a Reds fan, and so I probably have more critical

436
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 8: things to say about the Bengals because of a salary cap,

437
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,159
Speaker 8: you know, if they make bad decisions, they're not drafting

438
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 8: the right people. I mean, they're all constrained with the

439
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 8: same you know, financial you know, abilities, Baseball is completely different,

440
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 8: you know, and so you know, you know, I have

441
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 8: no issue with what they do with Abbott. I mean,

442
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,680
Speaker 8: they want him for the full year. Right pitching is

443
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,679
Speaker 8: kind of where this team's gonna make it or break it.

444
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 8: And the players are no different than we had last

445
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 8: year outside of the bench players. So you know, I

446
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 8: think the red strategy is they hope that McClean plays better,

447
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 8: they hope that Martel plays better. You know, that they

448
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,840
Speaker 8: get uplift. They're not uplifting by new players. They're gonna

449
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,399
Speaker 8: be uplifting by the base that they can afford to play.

450
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,639
Speaker 8: And so you know, they spent their money wisely on

451
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 8: their pitching. That's what's gonna get them there. And you're

452
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 8: gonna have to kind of ride those horses, you know,

453
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 8: for you know, one hundred and sixty two games, and

454
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 8: that's where it is, and one game doesn't make the serious.

455
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's a great point because they they

456
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 4: spent a sizable chunk on Audio Suarez to bring the

457
00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 4: bad but a lot of this is internal improvement and

458
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,120
Speaker 4: the belief that twenty three, twenty four to twenty five

459
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 4: year olds are gonna get better with last year's seasoning

460
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 4: and playoff experience under their belt. And if that doesn't happen,

461
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 4: then there's some trouble. But the the the hope and

462
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 4: the uh the they're banking on guys like la and

463
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 4: Matt McClain and Spencer Steer take a take a step forward.

464
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I mean that's that's kind of where they

465
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 8: have to play. I mean, with the payroll that they have,

466
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 8: you know, you can't be buying you know, proven players.

467
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 8: You know, Ellie's gonna cost them. I think what I

468
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 8: what I read was gonna be six at one fifteen.

469
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 8: You know, I don't know when they're gonna look to

470
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,399
Speaker 8: try to do that, but you start chinking that up,

471
00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 8: you're gonna have to get even greater control over other

472
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 8: other you know people, and hopefully through the draft. And

473
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,120
Speaker 8: that's where the Red's gonna have to play is through

474
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 8: people that they're bringing up because you're not a Ford

475
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 8: you know, outside of you know Suarez. I mean, I

476
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,879
Speaker 8: was a pretty big stick for fifteen million dollars. Hopefully

477
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 8: they get their money back there. But uh, you know,

478
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 8: the Reds have to you know, kind of draft better

479
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,399
Speaker 8: and they have to essentially the minor leagues have to

480
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 8: be absolutely stellar.

481
00:25:58,320 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 5: No doubt.

482
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 2: That's the way they're gonna have to, know doubt about it. Hey, Tom,

Speaker 4: to Joe Nuxhall, Miracle League Field to the Nut Saul Foundation.

498
00:26:58,160 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 4: I was thinking of the old left hander what I

499
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 4: said by a statue a great American ballpark yesterday someone

500
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 4: had left a rose at the base of the statues.

501
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 2: Very cool.

502
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,120
Speaker 4: The Knuxsall Foundation has a character card series that started,

503
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 4: I'm going to say over twenty years ago. And Andrew

504
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,879
Speaker 4: Abbott is the newest athlete to be featured on the

505
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 4: trading card. But it's really more than like a baseball card,

506
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 4: much more than that. For details on that and more

507
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 4: sterned to a good friend from the Nuxhall Americle League fields.

508
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 4: That would be Tyler Bradshaw.

509
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 11: How are you hey, Lance, Good to be with you,

510
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 11: and thanks for posting that picture that you mentioned of

511
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 11: Joe's statue yesterday with the rose. And thanks to whoever

512
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 11: it was who left that rose there at the statue.

513
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 11: That means so much to the family, to all of

514
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,160
Speaker 11: us who carry on Joe's legacy.

515
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 2: That was a special one, my friend, no question about that.

516
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,360
Speaker 4: Before we get into the choice of Andrew, let's kind

517
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 4: of go big picture here and tell listeners what is

518
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 4: the character card? What's it all about?

519
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 11: Yeah, actually, a really simple concept that came from, as

520
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 11: most things do, came from the brain of Kim Knoxalt

521
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,879
Speaker 11: Joe's Joe's son Kim. For those who live in the

522
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 11: Fairfield area, likely.

523
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: No.

524
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 11: He was an elementary school phyz ed teacher for thirty

525
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 11: two years and about halfway through his career really transformed

526
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 11: the way he taught and started focusing more on character education.

527
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 2: And the idea he had.

528
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:25,920
Speaker 11: You know how many of us grew up rip and

529
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 11: packs and collecting cards, and he thought, those cards are

530
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:33,159
Speaker 11: so special to people, But what if instead of the

531
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 11: stats on the back, we talked about the secret sauce

532
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 11: that differentiates, you know, what really gets people to the

533
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 11: big leagues. What if we had a special character message

534
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 11: there that talked about values like persistence and grit and

535
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 11: determination and hard work, respect, coachability, all of those things.

536
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 11: So the very first card, actually when they developed this

537
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 11: was with the mayor, Sean Casey, and Sean was kind

538
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 11: of in a partnership with Bob Evans. They actually, I

539
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 11: believe it was like two hundred thousand cards they started

540
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 11: out with, and there was a Sean Casey character card

541
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 11: included in every Bob Evans Kids meal all throughout the

542
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 11: Dried State for the longest time.

543
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 2: And after that.

544
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 11: Partnership ended, we thought this was a good one to

545
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 11: keep going. So we've done a number of these cards

546
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 11: since then and the best part about it. This truly

547
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 11: is a character education initiative from the Nutsall Foundation, and

548
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:35,400
Speaker 11: we send these cards out for free to any elementary school,

549
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 11: to any middle school, to any sports program, whether it's

550
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 11: just a single team or an entire youth league. We

551
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 11: will send them those cards so they can hand out

552
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 11: to every single athlete. And thankfully, yesterday in the Friendly

553
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 11: Market opening Day parade, our character Crusaders from Madison Elementary

554
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 11: School here in Butler County, they joined us and handed

555
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 11: out the very first fifteen hundred Andrew Abbot cards along.

556
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 2: The parade route. So yeah, really special day.

557
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 4: Oh so tell me about the choice and man, what

558
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 4: a I was going to say a slam dunk, but

559
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 4: I'll go pitching. What a what a fastball decision with

560
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 4: Andrew Abbit to go on the back.

561
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 11: You know, It's incredible how and truly it all started

562
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 11: with a post that the Reds put out when Andrew

563
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 11: Abbott made his debut. I will always remember this moment.

564
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 11: They were posting pictures of players who were debuting that season,

565
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 11: their jerseys in the in the locker room before the game,

566
00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 11: and I'll always remember the post seeing the jersey hanging

567
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 11: in the locker with number forty one an Abbot, and

568
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 11: the caption was simply the young left hander, And immediately

569
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 11: we knew we've got to talk with Andrew because this

570
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 11: is amazing the story that I have to tell your

571
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 11: listeners about how we connected with Andrew the very first

572
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 11: year that we were able to get guys here recently

573
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 11: to come out to the golf outing. It was a

574
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 11: couple of years ago. It was Andrews first year with

575
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 11: the Reds and we had a bunch of players signed

576
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 11: up to come and that was when a game got

577
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 11: delayed in Pittsburgh, so they had to do a doubleheader

578
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 11: on Sunday. The golf outing was on Monday. The guys

579
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 11: didn't even get back in Cincinnati until like one or

580
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 11: two o'clock in the morning, and we had kind of

581
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 11: told ourselves, well, you know, there's a good chance these

582
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 11: guys just are not going to be able to make

583
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 11: it to the outing. Every single player who had tigned

584
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,719
Speaker 11: up Lance showed up to the outing at nine o'clock

585
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 11: in the morning. They were there greeting people. And Andrew

586
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 11: Abbott was one of those. So he plays eighteen holes

587
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 11: of golf with one of our groups that's in the foursome,

588
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 11: and then before dinner he comes up and says, can

589
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 11: somebody point out the Knutsall family because I'd like to

590
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 11: talk with him. So we get him over to Kim

591
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 11: and Bonnie and he sits down and he says, I

592
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,560
Speaker 11: just want to let you know what an honor it

593
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 11: is for me to wear your dad's number, and how

594
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 11: important it is to me that I carry on his legacy,

595
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 11: that I, you know, reflect the kind of character that

596
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 11: he lived his life with. And I mean, Lance, this

597
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 11: is just one of those moments that I got goosebumps.

598
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 11: Then I get goosebumps now thinking about it. So it

599
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 11: was like, right then and there, it's like, well, he's

600
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 11: going to have a card someday. How how could he not?

601
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 2: As you say that, I'm sitting here feeling it right now. Man.

602
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 11: Yeah, it was an amazing moment. And the more we've

603
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 11: gotten to know Andrew Uh, just the more impressed we

604
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 11: are with his humility, with his kindness. And here here's

605
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 11: another cool thing, Lance, We've started. We just debuted his

606
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 11: character card, you know, this week in conjunction with opening Day,

607
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 11: which was perfect timing. We've had a bunch of requests

608
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 11: come in for his card, and the majority of those

609
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 11: requests have come from his hometown in Halifax, Virginia, and yeah,

610
00:32:56,200 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 11: and the and Lance. Every request is typically a company

611
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 11: need with a picture of Andrew in a parade or

612
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 11: Andrew at a pitching clinic, and those people talking about

613
00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 11: how humble he is, how kind he is, how giving

614
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 11: he is with his time. And my favorite was actually,

615
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 11: I think it's Oh, I'm going to get the name wrong.

616
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 11: I think it's sidneor Jennings Elementary School in Halifax, Virginia.

617
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 11: It is the school that Andrew attended as an elementary student.

618
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,640

Speaker 11: a special needs teacher, which is just amazing to me.

620
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 2: And they're going to be.

621
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 11: Receiving a package of cards to pass out to all

640
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,280
Speaker 4: before I run out of time. One, Andrew has teamed

641
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 4: up with Ted Carriss of the Bengals and the City

642
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 4: Hat Foundation to release a hat benefiting the Knucks Call founder.

643
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,239
Speaker 2: That's a sweet looking hat. Tell me about that.

644
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 11: Yeah, and it sold out. The initial batch sold out

645
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 11: in less than an hour. But yeah, Andrew. Andrew had

646
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 11: had connected with Ted Carris. He knew he wanted to

647
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 11: do a since he had to kick off the season,

648
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 11: and they asked him, well, where would you like the

649
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 11: proceeds to go? And he said, I want him to

650
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 11: go to the Nutsall Foundation. And Andrew and his team

651
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 11: came up with that really cool design that has the

652
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 11: number forty one and then it has an arch around

653
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,799
Speaker 11: it that says abbot and nuts all drive home that

654
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 11: shared legacy. So yeah, I wore mine yesterday in the parade.

655
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 11: It was fun to see other people out wearing theirs

656
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 11: as well. And we're thankful to Andrew into the Cynthi

657
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 11: Hat Foundation and Ted Carris's team for.

658
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 2: Making that happen.

659
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 11: That was a super fun partnership.

660
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 4: Love it, Love that, and last, but certainly not least,

661
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,760
Speaker 4: because this is big time opening day for the NUXSAW

672
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 4: Larry and Debbie Handley. Many people know Larry from his

673
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:58,719
Speaker 4: time on TV in Cincinnati as a fantastic meteorologist and

674
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:01,759

Speaker 4: at the fields for years through their company, Little Brown

676

Speaker 4: Dog Production, so we're gonna be honoring them for all

677
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 4: they've done. And again, I know I've shared with your

678
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:14,040
Speaker 4: listeners before, but there are few things that will warm

679
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:18,919
Speaker 4: your heart more than seeing parents of children in wheelchairs

680
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,480
Speaker 4: and walkers pushing their children along this mile and a

681
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 4: half route. But just as good as that are the

682
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 4: hundreds of people who don't know them that line the

683
00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,680
Speaker 4: streets to just cheer and show their excitement, to show

684
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 4: their love for them. It's a life changing experience every year.

685
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,359
Speaker 4: And you know, we always love having you there.

686

Speaker 11: you had last year's our our Grand Marshaled, But the

00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,000
Speaker 2: Hey Ken, Hey.

718
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 9: Lance, thanks for taking my call. I want to talk

719
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 9: Andrew Abbit showed why he's an All Star. Andrew Rabbit

720
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 9: did not have his best stuff yesterday, but he made

721
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 9: big pitch after big pitch two and oh three and one.

722
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,640
Speaker 9: He was coming back with his secondary stuff for strikes.

723
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,359
Speaker 9: And that's what makes him what he is. I mean,

724
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 9: you know, he gave up seven hits and six innings,

725
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 9: you know, and gave him eighty three great pitches.

726
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 4: He's he's very crafty and how he navigates a lineup

727
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,280
Speaker 4: and can can get find different ways to get outs.

728
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 9: Land's my question to you isn are the Reds gonna

729
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 9: miss Nick Martinez this year? Are the Reds going to

730
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:50,800
Speaker 9: miss Gavin Lux? Are the Reds gonna miss Santio Taniago Esminal?

731
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 9: Those are three guys I didn't understand they let go.

732
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 4: They'll miss one of them because they just can't replace

733
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 4: the innings of Nick Martinez. They've got a bunch of

734
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 4: guys who are on innings limits, as you know, and

735
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,879
Speaker 4: they just don't even even at Triple A. They don't

736
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 4: have a veteran kind of stashed there who's put up

737
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 4: innings in the past. I don't know how they're going

738
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 4: to mix and match and cover all the innings they're

739
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 4: gonna have to cover this year. Santiago Espinal does nothing.

740
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 4: I mean, as Tito and the Reds have basically said,

741
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,760
Speaker 4: why wis the bench spot on a guy who's just

742
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 4: just to have a middle infielder when you can have

743
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 4: a better hitter than Santiago Espin And where was Gavin

744
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:30,200
Speaker 4: Lux gonna play on this team?

745
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 9: I'm not sure, Lance, but I'm telling you. You know,

746
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 9: McClean get three fly balls yesterday and I was sitting

747
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 9: there going, uh, I mean that was the problem last year.

748
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 9: He wasn't hitting a enough line drives. He was putting

749
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 9: the ball in the air, you know. And Lux at

750
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 9: two sixty nine for him, I thought he had a

751
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,640
Speaker 9: solid year hitting for the Red Slants.

752
00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, but again, where where was he going to play

753
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 2: on this team?

754
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:56,200
Speaker 1: Wait?

755
00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:57,919
Speaker 4: Wait, he wasn't gonna play the outfield. We was gonna

756
00:39:57,920 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 4: play second base. So that's why he's not here.

757
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 9: Well, my point would be is, we don't know what

758
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,800
Speaker 9: Marte is shit, right.

759
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,560
Speaker 4: But you were going to keep But again, you were

760
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:10,760
Speaker 4: going to keep Gavin Lux around, especially for his salary,

761
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 4: on the chance that Marte's not good.

762
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 2: You have to find out if Marte is going to

763
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:15,239
Speaker 2: be good.

764
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 5: I hear you.

765
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,280
Speaker 9: I mean, that's just a question I've raised. I mean, Lux,

766
00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 9: I thought gave them a great production last year.

767
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 2: Well, let's put it this way.

768
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 4: If the Red sink or swim because they don't have

769
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:28,840
Speaker 4: Gavin Lux, then they're they're in major trouble.

770
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 9: I agree with you on that, Lance. I just those

771
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,239
Speaker 9: are three guys I thought really helped the club last year.

772
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 2: All right, thank you, Ken.

773
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 4: I think I think they could have gone a man

774
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 4: short of Santiago Espinal and they would have had more help.

775
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 2: I had.

776
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 4: Santiago Espinal did nothing for this team last year. And

777
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,240
Speaker 4: Gavin Lux. If they don't have a replacement this season

778
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 4: for Gavin Lux, then it's not going to matter because

779
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 4: they're going to be terrible. And I think it they're

780
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 4: not going to be terrible. I just of all the

781
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 4: things I'm worried about with this team, it's not how

782
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 4: they're going to replace Gavin luck In Santiago I Spinal.

783
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,640
Speaker 4: Come on, we've reached the bottom of the hour. Still

784
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 4: ahead the offense, South Stewart and Abs. It's RNL Carrier

785
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 4: Sports Talk presented by Kelsey Chevalet seven hundred WW duo,

786
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 4: the twenty two year olds back to back. Edwin Arroyo,

787
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,799
Speaker 4: making his first start at Triple A, doubles in his

788
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,920
Speaker 4: first at bat. He then scores when twenty two year

789
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 4: old left fielder Hector Rodriguez lines a single through the gap.

790
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,320
Speaker 4: One nothing Louisville Bats would chase Petty on the mound.

791
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 4: They head to the second in Louisville Tonight, coming up

792
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,360
Speaker 4: eight oh five. The off the Beaten Path topic. We

793
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 4: did this last year. I like the results. I think

794
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,720
Speaker 4: we'll do it again, and as another season begins, consider

795
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,200
Speaker 4: tonight's off the Beaten Path topic as our yearly reset

796
00:41:44,280 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 4: and reminder of why we love baseball. I look at

797
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,479
Speaker 4: it as and I thought it would work well last

798
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:53,399
Speaker 4: year as just kind of a reminder as we get

799
00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 4: back into the swing of things why we love the game.

800
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,720
Speaker 4: We'll do that coming up in the eight o'clock hour. Yesterday,

801
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:00,320
Speaker 4: the Reds were shut out for the first time in

802
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,800
Speaker 4: opening day since twenty eighteen. It was impossible not to

803
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 4: feel a little bit of the deja vous of a

804
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 4: year ago when they were shut out thirteen times, managed

805
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 4: one run, twenty one times two runs, twenty times.

806
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 2: They struck out twelve times.

807
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:18,240
Speaker 4: Yesterday. The clutch hitting, or lack thereof, was a thing. Yesterday.

808
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 4: They went one for seven with runners in scoring positions,

809
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:25,560
Speaker 4: stranded eight runners, three late scoring opportunities, each thwarted in

810
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 4: large part by strikeouts. Sixth inning, they loaded the bases

811
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 4: with one out on a McClean walk, La single and

812
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 4: Stuart single, and then au Hanneo Suarez strikes out, Spencer

813
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:39,319
Speaker 4: Steer strikes out. Seventh inning, Tyler Stevenson drew the lead

814
00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 4: off walk, Will Benson pinch hit, struck out, keep Brian

815
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 4: Hayes flew out. TJ Friedel struck out. Eighth inning, Stuart

816
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:50,960
Speaker 4: doubled with two outs, Suarez struck out. That's three scoring

817
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,399
Speaker 4: situations and five of.

818
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 2: The six out.

819
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 4: Five of the six outs they had to play with

820
00:42:57,400 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 4: were strikeouts. Think about those three situations. In each of

821
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 4: those situations I laid out, there were a total of

822
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:08,680
Speaker 4: six outs for them to play with, and five of

823
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 4: them resulted in a strikeout. Year ago, the Reds struck

824
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:13,719
Speaker 4: out a tick over twenty three percent of the time.

825
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 4: Only six teams in baseball struck out at a higher rate. Now,

826
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 4: the Reds weren't bad last year. In situational hitting. They

827
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 4: hit two fifty nine with runners in scoring position. That

828
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,280
Speaker 4: was the ninth best at all of baseball. It's actually

829
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 4: better than their season average. They hit two forty five

830
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 4: as a team, which is exactly the major league average.

831
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 4: They hit two fifty nine with runners in scoring position.

832
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 4: And I said this earlier and I'll say it again

833
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,000
Speaker 4: because it's only fair, and it's it's not an excuse,

834
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 4: it's the reality. It was Garrett Cruchet, Crochet and two

835
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:48,360
Speaker 4: stud relievers. And if we're being fair, there's the built

836
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 4: in adrenaline of opening day, and it was homecoming, and

837
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 4: probably the pressure to please for au Hineo Suarez. Add

838
00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,920
Speaker 4: it all up and maybe it explained some of yesterday.

839
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:03,080
Speaker 4: At least that's my hope, because yesterday seemed all too

840
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 4: familiar compared to a year ago. But as I say that,

841
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 4: South Stewart have a day twenty two years old, three hits,

842
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,879
Speaker 4: three of their four hits, the first Reds rookie since

843
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:19,319
Speaker 4: nineteen fifty eight, when rookie rules were established, with three

844
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,600
Speaker 4: hits on opening Day, the youngest Reds battered with three

845
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 4: hits in a season opener, surpassing Veda Pinson and he's

846
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,359
Speaker 4: the first Reds rookie since nineteen fifty eight to back

847
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 4: cleanup on opening Day. Now, I go back to what

848
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 4: Charlie Goldsmith said earlier this week when he talked about

849
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 4: the decision by Tito to move South Stewart up to

850
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:44,800
Speaker 4: the clean cleanup spot. In what that says about Sal,

851
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,680
Speaker 4: take a listen to what Charlie said, A huge deal.

852
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 2: When he makes a decision, he's telling you something.

853
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 10: And when he puts a rookie for him, the first

854
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:57,760
Speaker 10: rookie since Scott Roland in nineteen ninety seven in his lineup,

855
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,360
Speaker 10: when you look at his entire managerial he puts a

856
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 10: rookie in front of the who Heino Squarez. I don't

857
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 10: know that Tito could speak any more loudly about how

858
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 10: confident he is in Sal. I think he, you know,

859
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:10,560
Speaker 10: behind Ellie. I think Sal is going to be the

860
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 10: story of the season. And it was a blast, especially

861
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:17,120
Speaker 10: during the last three weeks of spring. Just the way

862
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:18,840
Speaker 10: he was playing those games was.

863
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,719
Speaker 12: A thrill to watch, to watch compete.

864
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:23,640
Speaker 10: All of that put together, I think in a lot

865
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 10: of ways, sALS turning the volume up from the player

866
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:27,399
Speaker 10: who was a year ago.

867
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,279
Speaker 4: Charlie Goldsmith earlier this week from Trelie's truck board. He

868
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 4: shook off a scary scene when he took that smash

869
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:35,840
Speaker 4: one hundred and ten miles an hour off the wrist

870
00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:39,280
Speaker 4: area above his glove on his left hand. Instantly tossed

871
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:41,720
Speaker 4: the glove aside wave to the training staff. I thought,

872
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:45,319
Speaker 4: at that moment, I think my pacemaker fired because I

873
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,320
Speaker 4: thought he'd broken his wrist, and I thought he knew

874
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 4: he'd broken his wrist. And I'm thinking, all right, already,

875
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 4: the wheels are like turning one. All right, Then who

876
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 4: goes to first? And then what's that gonna mean for

877
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:58,040
Speaker 4: left field? If it's Spencer Steeer goes to all the

878
00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 4: dominoes are starting to fall. I can't imagine what it

879
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 4: feels like today, especially after the adrenaline wears off. The

880
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,800
Speaker 4: hope would be he clears X rays and avoids disaster

881
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 4: and there's not some hairline thing going on. I fall

882
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,719
Speaker 4: back on the fact he smoked two hits base hits

883
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 4: after that injury, But again, adrenaline and in the moment,

884
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 4: and today had to be a whole different feel. Let's

885
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:26,200
Speaker 4: remember in the spring. In spring training, he had sixty

886
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,200
Speaker 4: plate appearances he hit three twenty seven in the spring

887
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 4: and had an OPS over one thousand. This is a

888
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 4: guy that Tito moved to the lead or the cleanup

889
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 4: spot after fifty eight major league at bats last year

890
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:45,280
Speaker 4: plate appearances fifty eight. Yet feel so good, so confident

891
00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,839
Speaker 4: about him, and I love the way he plays the game,

892
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:51,600
Speaker 4: just flat out love it. Out to the phones again, Mark,

893
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 4: Welcome to seven hundred WLW.

894
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:55,920
Speaker 13: Hey Lance, good Aidenan, how are you.

895
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 2: I'm well, thanks for calling.

896
00:46:58,239 --> 00:46:58,399
Speaker 14: Hey.

897
00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:02,960
Speaker 13: Couple things, you know, watching what happened yesterday, you know,

898
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 13: this hand ringing and whatnot after one game to me

899
00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:10,759
Speaker 13: is kind of mind boggling. I mean, if we look

900
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 13: at the Reds team and where this team really has

901
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,560
Speaker 13: to get better. Yeah, we know we could use a

902
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 13: little bit more power, but the biggest thing with this

903
00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:20,839
Speaker 13: team that they got to get better at striking out

904
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,719
Speaker 13: less and making more contact. And I think what we

905
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,680
Speaker 13: saw last you know, yesterday late in the six or

906
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:28,840
Speaker 13: seven any money in the bases loaded. We saw a

907
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:31,239
Speaker 13: lot of that last year. You get a guy on

908
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:33,799
Speaker 13: third less than two out and you can't even get

909
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,000
Speaker 13: a fly ball to get a run in. And that's

910
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,200
Speaker 13: where this team really has to get better at, you know,

911
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:42,919
Speaker 13: making contact with runners on base. If you hit into

912
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:44,759
Speaker 13: a double play, so be it. You know, if you

913
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:46,879
Speaker 13: got a guy on third, hopefully you know that gets

914
00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 13: the guy in. But a strikeout, nothing happens, and you

915
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 13: know all you have to do. If the Milwaukee Brewers

916
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,239
Speaker 13: are the state on this division, which I think they are,

917
00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,560
Speaker 13: if you look at their numbers last year, the Brewers

918
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,239
Speaker 13: and the Reds had almost exact the same amount of

919
00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:06,480
Speaker 13: home runs. But yet the Brewers were the highest or

920
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 13: the third highest scoring team in baseball. And they did

921
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:12,920
Speaker 13: it because they don't strike out where the Reds do.

922
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:16,800
Speaker 13: So you've got to make contact. And to your point earlier,

923
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,280
Speaker 13: where this team needs to get better is just making

924
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:24,120
Speaker 13: more consistent contact when you have men on base twelve strikeouts,

925
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:26,720
Speaker 13: you know, that's the equivalent of four no hit innings.

926
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:27,840
Speaker 13: You know, you can't win like that.

927
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:30,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, And just think if you go back and retrace

928
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:32,520
Speaker 4: the sixth or the seventh or the eighth and and

929
00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:35,360
Speaker 4: a ball and play and what it might have meant

930
00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:39,400
Speaker 4: at that point. It's just makes it awfully difficult when

931
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,520
Speaker 4: you're giving up twelve or twenty seven outs by strikeout.

932
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,719
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean, and this is where the team has

933
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 13: to get better on. I understand everybody wants home runs,

934
00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:53,319
Speaker 13: but the Brewers, you know, they don't use the long ball.

935
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:54,919
Speaker 2: They don't need the long ball.

936
00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:00,680
Speaker 13: They move runners, they make contact, they hit with you know,

937
00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:03,839
Speaker 13: they hit with less than with two hours, with less

938
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 13: than one out, and they move runners and that that's

939
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:09,360
Speaker 13: that's just good fundamental baseball. And that's how you stealed

940
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:11,839
Speaker 13: two or three runs a game. Then maybe somebody gets

941
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 13: a big hit with you know, with men on, but

942
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:17,759
Speaker 13: they strikeouts are are a killer, and this team hit

943
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:19,280
Speaker 13: strikes out way too much.

944

00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,799
Speaker 4: y two about two and a half minutes in. All right,

980
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 4: I thought the the fourth and final storyline of the day.

981
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 4: Yesterday we talked to Andrew Rabbitt, We talked South Stewart,

982
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:34,759
Speaker 4: We talked about the offensive issues in general. Fourth one

983
00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:38,600
Speaker 4: was the ABS challenge system and if you wondered if

984
00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:41,439
Speaker 4: it would be a big deal, make an impact, create

985
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:44,959
Speaker 4: like strategy decisions to be made. I think we saw

986
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:47,640
Speaker 4: yesterday what it can do to a game. There were

987
00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 4: three moments of note yesterday. Fourth inning, au Heeneo Suarez

988
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 4: took a two to two pitch that was called a

989
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 4: ball that Boston challenged and overturned it into a strikeout.

990
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 4: Seventh inning, Tyler Stevenson won a strike challenge as a

991
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:08,120
Speaker 4: hitter on a two to one pitch, so instead of

992
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:11,480
Speaker 4: two balls, two strikes, the count went to three balls,

993
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:17,080
Speaker 4: one strike and eventually became a leadoff walk, representing the

994
00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:19,719
Speaker 4: tying run. Now they didn't get it in but through

995
00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,799
Speaker 4: that and if I remember correctly, the Red Sox had

996
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:26,359
Speaker 4: challenged the pitch prior and lost their challenge that it

997
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:29,120
Speaker 4: was a strike. And then the very next pitch, Tyler

998
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:31,440
Speaker 4: Stevenson challenged a strike and it turned.

999
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:31,879
Speaker 2: Out to be a ball.

1000
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,080
Speaker 4: It eventually led to him getting on base, representing the

1001
00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,800
Speaker 4: tying run of the game, all because of an ABS

1002
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:42,240
Speaker 4: challenge overturn. But the ninth inning was huge. It's won nothing.

1003
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:47,160
Speaker 4: Boston Roman Anthony won a two out, two to on

1004
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:54,520
Speaker 4: full count strikeout challenge. The inning ended with a strikeout.

1005
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 4: Connor Phillips is walking off the mound. The challenge comes,

1006
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:04,360
Speaker 4: it is reversed into a walk instead of straight three

1007
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 4: to end the inning and stray in two runners in

1008
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:10,799
Speaker 4: a one nothing game. It's ball four. The inning continues.

1009
00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:13,400
Speaker 4: Phillips has got to go back into the rubber and

1010
00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:17,240
Speaker 4: do it again. The Red Sox had two more hits

1011
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 4: and score two big insurance runs, and a one nothing

1012
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:25,440
Speaker 4: game is a three to nothing game. When Conner Phillips

1013
00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 4: was striding off the mound, probably thinking to himself, Ah,

1014
00:53:28,760 --> 00:53:31,799
Speaker 4: got out of that jam, left two on base, then

1015
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:35,880
Speaker 4: had to I mean factor in the mental aspect of that,

1016
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 4: and that initial adrenaline like got him the guy with

1017
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:42,640
Speaker 4: three hits today, I got him. And then being told

1018
00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:46,759
Speaker 4: you're gonna have to keep going and regrouping mentally to

1019
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:49,400
Speaker 4: do that, and they add two more as a result.

1020
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:53,960
Speaker 4: All part of the ABS challenge system. All right, when

1021
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 4: we come back in the eight o'clock hour. We did

1022
00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,479
Speaker 4: this last year, I think it's worth trying again this year,

1023
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:02,239
Speaker 4: and I use it each year as the reminder of

1024
00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:04,920
Speaker 4: the start of the baseball season. It's been a while

1025
00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:10,359
Speaker 4: and it's simply a reset and a reminder of why

1026
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:15,880
Speaker 4: we love baseball. What an easy topic? What just popped

1027

1146
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:20,320
Speaker 4: I thought about that yesterday as I was walking across

1147
01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:25,560
Speaker 4: the bridge from Newport Aquarium to the stadium, and it's

1148
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:29,560
Speaker 4: the perfect This is the perfect time to do the

01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:34,440
Speaker 4: topic because everything comes back to us and the vibe

1153
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:46,720
Speaker 2: Why do we love baseball?

1154
01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:50,680
Speaker 4: To me, the rhythm and the pace of one hundred

1155
01:01:50,680 --> 01:01:53,160
Speaker 4: and sixty two games day after day. You don't have

1156
01:01:53,160 --> 01:01:59,280
Speaker 4: to wait for a week day baseball with the hot

1157
01:01:59,320 --> 01:02:04,520
Speaker 4: dog and a beer, smell of popcorn in the air,

1158
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:09,600
Speaker 4: grilling on the back porch, turning on the Reds game,

1159
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:20,120
Speaker 4: mowing your yard to the sounds of a game. Don't

1160
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,760
Speaker 4: you don't mow your yard listening to a basketball game

1161
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:23,600
Speaker 4: or a football game?

1162
01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:26,440
Speaker 2: Well, maybe you do, But it's part of why we

1163
01:02:26,480 --> 01:02:27,160
Speaker 2: love baseball.

1164
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:33,800
Speaker 4: Solving the scoreboard stumper, it's part of why we love baseball.

1165
01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:38,320
Speaker 4: What other sport there's no like. There's not a scoreboard

1166
01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 4: stumper in football or basketball. They a home run, robbing

1167
01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:52,960
Speaker 4: catch over the wall, managing along and second guessing a

1168
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:59,000
Speaker 4: baseball game. That's why we love baseball. Having a catch

1169
01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:04,120
Speaker 4: with your kids in the backyard is why we love baseball.

1170
01:03:06,600 --> 01:03:12,560
Speaker 4: You're kicking around some things right now? What are they?

1171
01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:16,520
Speaker 4: There's a reason you keep coming back. You've been giving

1172
01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:19,040
Speaker 4: a lot of reasons to go away and never come back.

1173
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:24,760
Speaker 4: You've had your heart broken, You've been frustrated, probably by

1174
01:03:24,840 --> 01:03:27,760
Speaker 4: rule changes or the way the game has changed or

1175
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:34,040
Speaker 4: evolved in a way you don't remember or recognize. But

1176
01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:40,560
Speaker 4: it's baseball and it's back. So why do we love it?

1177

1213
01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:15,160
Speaker 4: been it.

1214
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:17,200

1239
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:31,360
Speaker 3: they can't even fathom. They'll turn up your driveway. You're

1240
01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:34,480
Speaker 3: not knowing for sure why they're doing it. They'll arrive

1241
01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:38,800
Speaker 3: at your door. It's innocent as children longing for the past.

1242
01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:43,120
Speaker 3: Of course, we won't mind if you look around, you

1243
01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:47,920
Speaker 3: say it's only twenty dollars per present. They'll pass over

1244
01:07:48,000 --> 01:07:50,320
Speaker 3: the money without even thinking about it.

1245
01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:51,080
Speaker 14: What is money?

1246
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:55,880
Speaker 2: They have the piece they like Ray, just sign the

1247
01:07:55,920 --> 01:07:56,880
Speaker 2: papers and.

1248
01:07:56,880 --> 01:08:02,200
Speaker 23: They'll walk off through the bleachers, sit in shirt sleeves

1249
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:10,160
Speaker 23: on the perfect afternoon. They'll find they have reserved seats

1250
01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:14,040
Speaker 23: somewhere along one of the baselines where they sat when

1251
01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:18,920
Speaker 23: they were children. And cheered their heroes, and they watched

1252
01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:22,760
Speaker 23: the game, and it is that they dipped themselves in

1253
01:08:22,920 --> 01:08:23,719
Speaker 23: magic waters.

1254
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:28,200
Speaker 3: The memories will be so thick they'll have to bush

1255
01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:29,560
Speaker 3: them away from their faces.

1256
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:30,800
Speaker 13: Ray.

1257
01:08:31,400 --> 01:08:34,000
Speaker 17: When the bank opens in the morning, they'll foreclose.

1258
01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:35,639
Speaker 2: People will come.

1259
01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:35,960
Speaker 7: Ray.

1260
01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:39,919
Speaker 2: You're broke, Ray, you sell now, or you lose everything.

1261
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:45,440
Speaker 14: The one constant through all the years, Ray has been Baseball.

1262
01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:49,240
Speaker 14: America has rolled by like an army of steam rollers.

1263
01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:53,639
Speaker 14: It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again.

1264
01:08:55,800 --> 01:09:02,920
Speaker 14: But baseball has marked the time, this field, this game,

1265
01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:05,280
Speaker 14: that's a part of our past.

1266
01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:05,559
Speaker 6: Ray.

1267
01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:11,640
Speaker 3: It reminds us of all that once was good and

1268
01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:12,519
Speaker 3: the kookie a kid.

1269
01:09:14,600 --> 01:09:21,200
Speaker 23: Oh, people will come, Ray, People will most definitely come.

1270
01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:23,639
Speaker 2: How about that, Mike? Is that good enough?

1271
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:25,880
Speaker 5: Lads?

Speaker 4: clutch and you know I add to it. Mike on

1277
01:09:38,040 --> 01:09:40,439
Speaker 4: Facebook says that feeling you get every time you walk

1278
01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:43,400
Speaker 4: into a ballpark and see the bright green field for

1279
01:09:43,439 --> 01:09:45,280
Speaker 4: the first time. I will never forget the first time

1280
01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:49,320
Speaker 4: I went to Wrigley Field, and when you're underneath it

1281
01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:51,760
Speaker 4: and it's dark in the concourse area, and then you

1282
01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:55,080
Speaker 4: walk up the ramp and you see the sunlight at

1283
01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:56,920
Speaker 4: the top of the ramp, and that's all you see.

1284
01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,360
Speaker 2: You just see the sky and the sun sunlight.

1285
01:09:59,520 --> 01:10:01,400
Speaker 4: But when you walk up to the top of that

1286
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:05,320
Speaker 4: ramp and see the green ivy for the first time,

1287
01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:16,880
Speaker 4: it is absolutely unbelievably cool. I'll never forget my first

1288
01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:17,559
Speaker 4: time at Wrigley.

1289
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:20,400
Speaker 2: What else.

1290
01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:25,040
Speaker 4: Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand, one eight hundred,

1291
01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:32,560
Speaker 4: the Big One, Jim Peanuts, steamy hot summer nights, fireworks

1292
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:34,880
Speaker 4: for a home runner. Better yet, a win, a walk

1293
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:37,679
Speaker 4: off win, a successful bunt, I would add, I'll see

1294
01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:40,200
Speaker 4: your bunt and raise you. A suicide squeeze, and the

1295
01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:43,080
Speaker 4: drama and the on rush of a runner.

1296
01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:45,080
Speaker 2: And the the.

1297
01:10:44,840 --> 01:10:49,120
Speaker 4: Challenge of just getting the bat, the ball down in play,

1298
01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:52,439
Speaker 4: runner stuck in a pickle. All that's a good one

1299
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:55,760
Speaker 4: throw from deep in the outfield that picks off a

1300
01:10:55,800 --> 01:10:56,760
Speaker 4: player who was it?

1301
01:10:56,880 --> 01:10:57,360
Speaker 2: The throw?

1302
01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:01,280
Speaker 4: Oh is Aaron Judge In the World Baseball Classic. The

1303
01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:05,200
Speaker 4: throw that Aaron Judge made from right field to third

1304
01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:08,840
Speaker 4: base on one hop to nail the runner was a

1305
01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:12,360
Speaker 4: thing of beauty and another one of those reasons why

1306
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:17,800

Speaker 4: four and two thirds innings, four hits, no runs, walked

1388
01:16:15,439 --> 01:16:19,400
Speaker 4: just one, struck out eight in pitching into the fifth inning.

1389
01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:23,720
Speaker 4: Good for him. Last year was a disaster. I mean,

1390
01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:26,320
Speaker 4: Chase Petty at one point was a top one hundred prospect.

1391
01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:28,320
Speaker 4: He was drafted in the first round out of high

1392
01:16:28,320 --> 01:16:30,479
Speaker 4: school by the Minnesota Twins. The Reds got him in

1393
01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:35,519
Speaker 4: the Sunny Gray trade, and last season, for a variety

1394
01:16:35,600 --> 01:16:38,679
Speaker 4: of reasons, including the Reds were just very unfair to him,

1395
01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:42,240
Speaker 4: brought him up on three different occasions. He wasn't ready

1396
01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,880
Speaker 4: the first time, and he certainly wasn't ready after that,

1397
01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:48,559
Speaker 4: and he got bounced around and you felt bad for him.

1398
01:16:48,880 --> 01:16:51,200
Speaker 4: His Triple A season was a wreck. His earned run

1399
01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:55,160
Speaker 4: average was nearly seven. But he's still only I think

1400
01:16:55,240 --> 01:16:57,960
Speaker 4: Chase Petty is only twenty three years old. I'm going

1401
01:16:58,040 --> 01:17:01,200
Speaker 4: to look that up. I probably shouldn't have said probably,

1402
01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:03,920
Speaker 4: I should have just looked it up before I started

1403
01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:04,320
Speaker 4: the talk.

1404
01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:05,599
Speaker 2: And he is twenty two.

1405
01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:11,360
Speaker 4: He'll turn twenty three in three weeks. But man, this

1406
01:17:11,479 --> 01:17:15,040
Speaker 4: team is going to need Chase Petty at some point

1407
01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:20,280
Speaker 4: this season, and tonight is a big time start for him.

1408
01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:22,839
Speaker 4: And my guy, Trevor Kunsel has come on in relief,

1409
01:17:23,080 --> 01:17:24,920
Speaker 4: got the final out of the fifth inning. We'll see

1410
01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:27,320
Speaker 4: if he goes back out for the sixth. Trevor Kunsel

1411
01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:30,400
Speaker 4: is one of my favorites because it's such a unique story.

1412
01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:33,240
Speaker 4: He played at Saint X. He played college baseball, and

1413
01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:36,479
Speaker 4: he was a position player. I want to say St.

1414
01:17:36,520 --> 01:17:43,320
Speaker 4: Bonaventure played infield and converted to a pitcher and became

1415
01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:48,120
Speaker 4: the closer in college when undrafted, and two years ago

1416
01:17:49,520 --> 01:17:52,679
Speaker 4: went to Drive Line Baseball Academy. It's like a pitching

1417
01:17:52,760 --> 01:17:58,040
Speaker 4: factory and really unlock some stuff and started throwing hard

1418
01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:01,320
Speaker 4: and I mean hard, and he was pitching in the

1419
01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:05,280
Speaker 4: Frontier League, which is the league that Florence Yawl's playing.

1420
01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:08,280
Speaker 4: He was playing for another team in the league and

1421
01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:10,559
Speaker 4: he was hitting one hundred and two miles an hour.

1422
01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:13,479
Speaker 4: He made the All Star team. I think he got

1423
01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:16,360
Speaker 4: the save in the All Star Game, and the Reds

1424
01:18:16,400 --> 01:18:20,599
Speaker 4: saw him, or scouting saw him, signed him. Last year

1425
01:18:20,640 --> 01:18:24,800
Speaker 4: he pitched at Double A for Chattanooga and had a

1426
01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:26,960
Speaker 4: fantastic season. I want to say he had an earned

1427
01:18:27,040 --> 01:18:29,760
Speaker 4: run average around two and a half last year. Here

1428
01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:33,559
Speaker 4: it is two three four for Double A Chattanooga. They

1429
01:18:33,760 --> 01:18:36,439
Speaker 4: assigned him to Triple A this year for the first time,

1430
01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:39,080
Speaker 4: and he just made his first appearance and got his

1431
01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:41,639
Speaker 4: first out. And we'll see if he goes back out

1432
01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:44,320
Speaker 4: for the sixth. But that's a cool story. Luis may

1433
01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:46,880
Speaker 4: is down there, Kyle Nicholas is there. That'll be interesting

1434
01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:50,080
Speaker 4: because the Reds are going to kind of get him

1435
01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:53,479
Speaker 4: ramped up and ready before they bring him up. He

1436
01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:56,920
Speaker 4: was the player they acquired in the Tyler Callahan trade.

1437
01:18:57,000 --> 01:18:58,960
Speaker 4: Didn't get to pitch much because he was pitching for

1438
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:01,400
Speaker 4: Italy in the World Base Classic and the Reds didn't

1439
01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:03,360
Speaker 4: get a chance to really look at him. So They're

1440
01:19:03,360 --> 01:19:04,920
Speaker 4: gonna get a look at him down there, and then

1441
01:19:04,960 --> 01:19:07,559
Speaker 4: he should be upson. Lion Richardson is down there. Their

1442
01:19:07,600 --> 01:19:11,639
Speaker 4: outfield this year at Triple A JJ Bloda, Blake Dunn,

1443
01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:16,519
Speaker 4: Rhese Hines and Hector Rodriguez. Lion Richardson is down there

1444
01:19:16,680 --> 01:19:19,200
Speaker 4: as well. That's their opener tonight. All right, we'll head

1445
01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:20,680
Speaker 4: down the stretch. How am I going to do all

1446
01:19:20,720 --> 01:19:22,519
Speaker 4: this I got to do on this date. I've got

1447
01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:26,080
Speaker 4: a note on baseball jerseys and more. We'll head down

1448
01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:28,280
Speaker 4: the stretch, put the wraps on it. I believe Sterling's

1449
01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:30,360
Speaker 4: in the house. That's around the corner as well. It's

1450
01:19:30,479 --> 01:19:33,639
Speaker 4: RNL Carrier Sports Talk presented by Kelsey Chevallet, seven hundred

1451
01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:39,200
Speaker 4: WLW close it in on nine o'clock on this Friday night.

1452
01:19:39,800 --> 01:19:44,000
Speaker 4: RNL Carrier Sports Talk presented by Kelsey Chevallet. Sterling coming

1453
01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:46,519
Speaker 4: in at nine. I do believe we have things that

1454
01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:51,280
Speaker 4: take care of between now and then, including this. I

1455
01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:56,520
Speaker 4: saw I love list the most popular MLB player jerseys

1456
01:19:56,760 --> 01:20:02,840
Speaker 4: from mlbshop dot com. The number one jersey in Major

01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:12,800
Speaker 4: League Baseball would be shohe Otani, number two, yoshinobo Ya Yamamoto,

1458
01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:18,000
Speaker 4: easy for me to say Aaron Judge number three, Cal

1459
01:20:18,080 --> 01:20:25,439
Speaker 4: Riley is four, Mookie Bets five, Nolan Aeronado six, Freddie

Speaker 4: five Dodgers in the top twelve in Jersey sales in

01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:46,479
Speaker 4: Major League Baseball since the end of last year's World Series,

1464
01:20:47,640 --> 01:20:50,439
Speaker 4: including Keyke Hernandez, which somebody would have to I know

1465
01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:52,840
Speaker 4: he's a fan favorite. Maybe it's as simple as that.

1466
01:20:52,880 --> 01:20:55,679
Speaker 4: He's twelve. He's ahead of Bryce Harper and Juan Soto

1467
01:20:55,720 --> 01:20:59,360
Speaker 4: and Vla Guerrero. There is not a Paul Skins is nineteen.

1468
01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:04,639
Speaker 4: There is not a Red either Hunter Green or Ellie

1469
01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:07,759
Speaker 4: in the top twenty that from Major League Baseball today.

1470
01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:09,559
Speaker 4: All right, let's round it out with what happened on

1471
01:21:09,920 --> 01:21:13,040
Speaker 4: let me give you updates. Eight forty four to go.

1472
01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:20,800
Speaker 4: Saint John's leading Duke sixty two sixty with about eight

1473
01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:26,839
Speaker 4: minutes to go. Meanwhile, at halftime, Alabama leeds Michigan forty

1474
01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:30,760
Speaker 4: nine forty seven. All right, things that happened on this

1475
01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:35,960
Speaker 4: date in sports history. Nineteen thirty nine, first NCUBA Basketball

1476
01:21:36,040 --> 01:21:40,680
Speaker 4: Championship Oregon beats Ohio State forty six thirty three to

1477
01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:42,160
Speaker 4: win the national Championship.

1478
01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:43,760
Speaker 2: Nineteen fifty one.

1479
01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:47,080
Speaker 4: Bill Spivey scores twenty two points to League Kentucky to

1480
01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:49,840
Speaker 4: a sixty eight to fifty eight win over Kansas State

1481
01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:54,960
Speaker 4: for the NCUBLEA Tournament Championship. Nineteen seventy two. Eight off

1482
01:21:55,040 --> 01:21:58,400
Speaker 4: Rup retires after forty two years of coaching at the

1483
01:21:58,520 --> 01:22:01,559
Speaker 4: University of Kentucky. There is a Kentucky theme here. It

1484
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:05,559
Speaker 4: is March after All. Nineteen seventy eight, Jack Gibbons Goose

1485
01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:09,200
Speaker 4: scores forty one to Lee Kentucky to a ninety four

1486
01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:13,479
Speaker 4: to eighty eight win over Duke for the NCAA basketball title.

1487
01:22:13,640 --> 01:22:15,840
Speaker 4: I have the Sports Illustrated with him on the cover,

1488
01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:18,519
Speaker 4: and what a treat it was? Was it last year?

1489
01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:22,360
Speaker 4: The year before at Long Necks for the Roundtable Show.

1490
01:22:22,520 --> 01:22:26,600
Speaker 4: Jack Gibbons was there, and I don't know why he

1491
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:29,760
Speaker 4: was there, but I got the meeting. Nineteen eighty nine,

1492
01:22:29,800 --> 01:22:34,559
Speaker 4: On this date, Sports Illustrated exposes baseball player Pete Rose

1493
01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:39,360
Speaker 4: and his gambling activities. The article allegis Charlie hussele Bet

1494
01:22:39,360 --> 01:22:42,840
Speaker 4: from the Riverfront dugout using hand signals with an Associate

1495
01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:49,160
Speaker 4: two thousand and seven, NFL owners vote thirty to two

1496
01:22:49,200 --> 01:22:53,000
Speaker 4: to make the video replay system a permanent officiating tool.

1497
01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:55,639
Speaker 2: It was back in two thousand and seven.

1498
01:22:57,000 --> 01:23:00,200
Speaker 4: Twenty ten, Hugs in West Virginia beat Kentucky to as

1499
01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:02,320
Speaker 4: to the Final Four for the first time since nineteen

1500
01:23:02,439 --> 01:23:06,959
Speaker 4: fifty nine. Butler defeats Kansas State in the West Regional

1501
01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:10,559
Speaker 4: to advance to the first Final four in program history.

1502
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:14,920
Speaker 4: That was one of the wildest games. And then Casey

1503
01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:18,800
Speaker 4: and I went to the Final Four in Indianapolis Lucas Oil.

1504
01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:22,240
Speaker 4: They beat Michigan State fifty two to fifty to advance

1505
01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:26,800
Speaker 4: in the Final four to the championship game. I missed

1506
01:23:26,880 --> 01:23:29,360
Speaker 4: that National Championship game. That was the duke game. The

1507
01:23:29,400 --> 01:23:32,040
Speaker 4: Gordon Hayward shot just misses off the rim. But I'll

1508
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:35,120
Speaker 4: never forget. It was opening day for the Reds and

1509
01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:39,080
Speaker 4: I didn't even attempt to get off Opening Day. I

1510
01:23:39,080 --> 01:23:41,599
Speaker 4: didn't even attempt to say, but it's my school. They're

1511
01:23:41,640 --> 01:23:45,120
Speaker 4: playing for the national championship. It was Red's opening day.

1512
01:23:45,280 --> 01:23:48,679
Speaker 4: I wasn't going to not be there for Reds Opening Day,

1513
01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:51,760
Speaker 4: so I watched from home as Gordon Hayward missed by

1514
01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:57,240
Speaker 4: this much, perhaps the greatest story in college basketball history.

1515
01:23:57,280 --> 01:24:00,880
Speaker 4: And finally one more, I'll give you one more. This date,

1516
01:24:00,960 --> 01:24:06,280
Speaker 4: twenty seventeen, Yukon women advanced to their tenth consecutive Final four. Unbelievable,

1517
01:24:06,439 --> 01:24:08,000
Speaker 4: and they're back at it again this year with an

1518
01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:10,160
Speaker 4: unbeaten team. All right, final note of the night. And

1519
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:12,240
Speaker 4: I forgot to mention this earlier in the week. I

1520
01:24:12,280 --> 01:24:14,840
Speaker 4: was listening to Ken Brew on Sunday morning Sports Talk

1521
01:24:14,840 --> 01:24:18,280
Speaker 4: and he had Dave Lorella of Fangrafts on, and he

1522
01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:23,760
Speaker 4: brought up this point, the career of Aohanio Swarez. Statistically,

1523
01:24:24,800 --> 01:24:28,639
Speaker 4: the career of Aohandeo Suarez to this point is most

1524
01:24:28,680 --> 01:24:35,240
Speaker 4: similar to what player in baseball history. We're talking all

1525
01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:39,799
Speaker 4: this counting numbers, home runs, RBI's, hits, runs, walk, batting average,

1526
01:24:39,840 --> 01:24:45,840
Speaker 4: on bass, slugging ops, games played. Would you believe the

1527
01:24:45,920 --> 01:24:52,439
Speaker 4: player that Aohaneo Suarez is most similar to. According to

1528
01:24:52,479 --> 01:24:59,200
Speaker 4: Baseball Reference, Jay Bruce, Suarez has played sixteen hundred and

1529
01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:03,519
Speaker 4: thirty games. Bruce played sixteen hundred and fifty Swarez hit,

1530
01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:06,760
Speaker 4: has hit two forty six Bruce hit two forty four,

1531
01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:10,040
Speaker 4: swore as three hundred and twenty five homers, Bruce three

1532
01:25:10,240 --> 01:25:16,240
Speaker 4: nineteen hits, Sworez fourteen hundred and thirty four, Jay Bruce

1533
01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:21,559
Speaker 4: fourteen hundred and fifty five runs scored, Sworez eight thirty one,

1534
01:25:21,960 --> 01:25:26,439
Speaker 4: Bruce eight thirty nine walks, swore As six thirty two,

1535
01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:31,080
Speaker 4: Bruce six hundred. Their slugging is almost identical. Swarez a

1536
01:25:31,160 --> 01:25:34,599
Speaker 4: four to sixty four slugging, Bruce a four sixty seven.
