20
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 2: seven thousand, one eight hundred, the Big One. What an

21
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: unbelievable day leading up to opening Day twenty twenty sixty,

22
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 2: one hundred and fiftieth in the history of Reds Baseball.

23
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: The banks was buzzing, the Holy Grail was up for grabs.

24
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 2: It was an unbelievable scene around the clock. Joeyvodo's clocked

25
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: everybody taking pictures. We had a blast on the air.

26
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 2: I actually don't tell him this, but I didn't mind

27
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: being with Willie this time. It's the way I'll put it.

28
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 2: Sometimes I walk away with a headache. Sometimes I walk

29
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 2: away feeling I need several drinks. Today I just want

30
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 2: walked away and said, okay, I survived that today, and

31
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 2: then well. Andrew Abbot was dynamite. So much for spring training?

32
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 2: Who needs those? We don't need no stinking spring training.

33
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 2: Andrew Abbott was fantastic, shaking off a shaky spring and

34
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 2: tossing six shutout innings. But Satan Raphael's RBI single off

35
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: Pierce Johnson broke a scoreless tie in the seventh, and

36
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,679
Speaker 2: that proved to be enough, even though the Red Sox

37
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 2: would go ahead and tack on two more. And I

38
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 2: can't be the only one feeling among forty three thousand

39
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: and eight seventy nine as they walked out today feeling

40
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 2: a sense of deja vu all over again. As if

41
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 2: I could quote Yogi Bearra, the Reds were shut out

42
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 2: thirteen times. Last season. They scored three runs or fewer

43
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: fifty four times, and today begin the twenty twenty six

44
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 2: edition of Reds Baseball by being shut out. First opening

45
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 2: day shutouts since twenty eighteen, the ninth time in franchise

46
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: history they have been shut out on opening Day. They

47
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 2: managed just four hits, three of those by rookie South Stewart.

48
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 2: They strike out twelve times, They go one for seven

49
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 2: with runners in scoring position, and they strand eight runners. Now,

50
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 2: having said all that, I do feel as though this

51
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 2: is required for the sake of putting on the record.

52
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 2: I don't know how how much others follow the American League.

53
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 2: I get it this is a National League city, But

54
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 2: a little bit of a reminder. Garrett Crochet went eighteen

55
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 2: and five last season with a two point fifty nine

56
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 2: earned run average. He led the majors with two hundred

57
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: and fifty five strikeouts. He finished second in the American

58
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 2: League Cy Young voting to Trek Skoubel. You could make

59
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 2: the argument Garrett Crochet was the second best pitcher in

60
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 2: all of Major League Baseball last season, so what he

61
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 2: did today is not out of the realm of the

62
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 2: usual for him. Doesn't make it any easier to digest

63
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 2: and less frustrating. When the Reds Loues on opening Day

64
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: three nothing and man, do we see the abs. I

65
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 2: don't want to say turn the game, but you talk

66
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 2: about adding on in the moment of the game, We

67
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 2: saw it before our very eyes, if you wondered about it.

68
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 2: In that eighth inning, Connor Phillips believed he had struck

69
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 2: out Roman Anthony to end or actually the ninth inning,

70
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 2: to strike out Roman Anthony to end the inning. Unscathed

71
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 2: Roman Anthony, who is just some young combination of I

72
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,600
Speaker 2: fear like Ted Williams or Jim Rice, fred Linn Mike

73
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 2: Greenwell rolled into one for the Boston Red Sox. Asked

74
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 2: Jeff Hobson about him. But Roman Anthony, who had what

75
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 2: three hits on the day, challenges what would have been

76
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 2: strike three. Conder Phillips was walking off the mound the

77
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 2: Reds were going to the dugout and Roman Anthony taps

78
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 2: the hat. That wasn't strike three, he thought, and challenge, replay, review,

79
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 2: reverse the call, and it goes from strike three to

80
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 2: end the inning with no runs being scored to a

81
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 2: walk to Roman Anthony. The inning extends and the Red

82
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 2: Sox add two more to make it three nothing. And

83
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: at that point, especially going to Erodis Chapman for the

84
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 2: ninth inning, it felt like a mountain the Reds were

85
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,280
Speaker 2: not going to be able to climb, and they ultimately

86
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 2: did not three nothing your final score. But you know,

87
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 2: and Tommy brought this up with the post game, and

88
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 2: it's right had we had. We had a conversation at

89
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 2: the Holy Grail in the early stages of the afternoon,

90
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 2: and that conversation was, Hey, would you take six shutout

91
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: innings from Andrew Abbott and would you take a three

92
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:01,479
Speaker 2: hit day by Ray's rookie sound Stuart, something no rookie

93
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 2: has ever done in franchise history. Would you take your

94
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,359
Speaker 2: chances with that? I think everybody would have said, yes,

95
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 2: I will take my chances with that. That's exactly what

96
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 2: they got. But they get no runs and no win today.

97
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 2: Boy they missed a chance in the sixth, and it

98
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: felt like like that was going to be against Gurrett

99
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 2: Cet Crochet. There are against a good pitcher, there's usually

100
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,160
Speaker 2: if you're lucky multiple times, but really you think there's

101
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 2: going to be an opportunity maybe where the door is

102
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 2: a jar, just a little bit. Can you get him

103
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: right here, right now? The Reds had the bases loaded

104
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: with one out on the sixth. McClain had walked, Ellie

105
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 2: had singled, South Stewart had singled scoreless game Crochet and

106
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 2: pitch count wasn't climbing high, but he was in. He

107
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 2: was approaching eighty pitches and thinking, all right, get him

108
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 2: here and then finish it out with the bullpen and

109
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: will count outs. And instead au Enio Suarez strikes out,

110
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 2: South Stewart or Spencer Steer strikes out. And that was it.

111
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 2: Not completely it, because they did have a chance in

112
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 2: the seventh, They had a chance in the eighth. But man,

113
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 2: I'm looking at my notes and I see a lot

114
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: of k's around the sixth, the seventh, and the eighth

115
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 2: innings that impacted their inability to push across to run.

116
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 2: On a day where they strike out a total of

117
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 2: twelve times mischance in the sixth, the seventh, and the eighth.

118
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna make Andrew Abbott our Stone statement Star of

119
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 2: the Game because it's my prerogative. And I'm gonna name

120
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 2: a Red the Star of the Game based on what

121
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 2: he did for the Reds, based on what people had

122
00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 2: wondered about going in and it's brought to you by

123
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 2: Stone Statements. He loves Stone statements. Make a statement with

124
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 2: your countertops, like Kelly and I did Stone statements dot Com.

125
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 2: Andrew Rabbit had the worst spring of any Red's pitcher

126
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 2: earned run average of twelve point seventy five. I'm gonna

127
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 2: say off the top of my head, he gave up

128
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: twenty eight hits in seventeen innings. It was like fifteen

129
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 2: more hits than any Red's pitcher in the spring. He

130
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 2: gave up i think twenty two runs, which was like

131
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 2: he eleven more runs than any Red's pitcher in the spring.

132
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 2: The league hit three point fifty nine against him in

133
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 2: the spring. And as things went on, you thought, all right,

134
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 2: he's experimenting with some things. He'll eventually kick it into gear.

135
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 2: And Tito was talking about, how you know, he kind

136
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 2: of didn't look comfortable on the mount. He was towing

137
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: at the r towing at the mound and the rubber

138
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 2: a couple of times down the stretch here. And then

139
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,599
Speaker 2: Tito had the conversation with him last week where he

140
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 2: kind of put his arm around him and said, you

141
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 2: know what, you pretty much stink so far in spring

142
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 2: and laughed with him. And then Tito thought he threw

143
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 2: better in his final start last Saturday. The numbers may

144
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 2: be didn't bear that out in the box score, but

145
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 2: it felt like maybe he had put things together. Well,

146
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 2: I'm here to tell you today it was all together.

147
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 2: Andrew Rabbit goes six innings, seven hits, no runs, one walk,

148
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 2: four strikeouts through eighty three pitches, fifty nine for strikes.

149
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 2: And if you take anything out of this, really there's

150
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 2: two things to take out of this. On a positive,

151
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 2: it's Andrew Rabbit and it's South Stewart. Because that is

152
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 2: a huge sigh of relief, like wipe the browlag. Okay

153
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 2: that I don't need to recite the situation, but I will.

154
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 2: Hunter Green injured list will see him maybe mid July.

155
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 2: Nicolodolo injured list, you hope to see him in fifteen

156
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,680
Speaker 2: days three other starters in the rotation who are going

157
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 2: to do something they've never done before, try to pitch

158
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 2: a full season in the major leagues. Andrew Rabbit has

159
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 2: to be right for this team, and today he was

160
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 2: absolutely right for this team. The offense just did not

161
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 2: support it, and the bullpen gives up three runs, three

162
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 2: nothing your final score. I'm gonna make sal our power

163
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 2: Player the game presented by Cincinnati Tax Resolution Power by

164
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 2: TOF five one three five one three TOF. We are

165
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:18,839
Speaker 2: glad to have them back on board this year. If

166
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,959
Speaker 2: you have a massive IRA tax problem, don't live in fear.

167
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 2: Tof is here And man, oh man, you know Tito

168
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 2: said last week, I think I'm gonna put south Stewart

169
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 2: in the cleanup spot. Think it makes sense for this lineup.

170
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 2: He can handle the bat, gives us some more opportunities,

171
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 2: gets somebody more fleet a foot ahead up towards the

172
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 2: top of the order. And au Heneo, coming back from

173
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: the World Baseball Classic, isn't fully up to speed, didn't

174
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 2: get as much playing time as he would have in

175
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 2: Red's camp, and boy did it payoff at least for today.

176
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 2: South Stewart with three hits, two doubles again since nineteen

177
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,960
Speaker 2: fifty eight when they started the rookie rules. South Stewart's

178
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 2: the first Reds rookie on opening Day to get three hits.

179
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 2: And I know I'm not the only one that held

180
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 2: his breath when that liner went off his hand. And

181
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 2: if you were listening to the Inside Pitch, the story

182
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 2: that Sean Casey told about Will Clark, you'll know more.

183
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 2: If not, I'll tell that story as we continue, and

184
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 2: we'll grab your calls at five, one, three, seven, four, nine,

185
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 2: seven thousand, one, eight hundred, the Big one three nothing,

186
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 2: the Sad Final today. But we are officially underway on

187
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: the Kelsey Chevrolet Extra Inning Show on seven hundred WLW. Hey,

188
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 2: welcome back to the Kelsey Chevrolet Extra Ending Show, seven

189
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 2: hundred WLW. I'm last the callister. It means a lot

190
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 2: you hung around after the game to talk about it.

191
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 2: We'll take it till nine. Dan Carrel's in at that point.

192
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,599
Speaker 2: Gotta feel good for south Stewart from a couple of

193
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 2: different standpoints, so we're gonna make him o Skyline Chili

194
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: feel a good player of the game. Brought to you

195
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 2: by Skyline Chili. Feeling good. It's skyline time. He gets

196
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 2: three hits. He got their first hit of the season.

197
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 2: He had two doubles. Two of those hits came after

198
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 2: he took a line drive off his left hand and

199
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,439
Speaker 2: it was a smash off the bat at one hundred

200
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 2: and ten miles an hour when it made contact on

201
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 2: his glove hand above on the bare part of his

202
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 2: right tim like up above the wrist. He tossed his

203
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 2: glove away and immediately waved to the training staff to

204
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 2: come out. I thought he had broken his wrist, and

205
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 2: maybe a lot of that was the story that Sean

206
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 2: Casey has told about two thousand before Opening Day, they

207
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 2: had played an exhibition game in Chattanooga and they played

208
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: against the Giants and Will Clerk, and he got to

209
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 2: meet Will Clark for the first time. He's like idol

210
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: growing up. And in the first inning of that exhibition game,

211
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 2: just before spring training, Will Clark turned on a fastball

212
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 2: and smashed one to first off of Sean Casey's thumb,

213
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 2: and it broke his thumb and it caused him the

214
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 2: misopening day. So that was freshly in my mind hearing

215
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 2: that story and the way sal reacted. He dropped to

216
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 2: a knee. He tossed the glove away. He motioned quickly

217
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 2: for the training staff, and I said, you gotta be

218
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 2: kidding me. Opening day and south Stewart has broken his wrist.

219
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,440
Speaker 2: I can't imagine how sore it's gonna be tomorrow. I

220
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 2: do know this. He stayed in the game, and he

221
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: didn't just stay in the game. He got two more hits.

222
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: So it may be sore. And I'm not a doctor

223
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 2: and I'm not gonna do the X ray, but man,

224
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 2: I can't imagine how it's gonna feel tomorrow. But you

225
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 2: would think there has been an escape of worst news

226
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 2: by his ability to stay in the game and get

227
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 2: two hits after that. So that's our skyline Chile feeling

228
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 2: good player of the game. Let's head to the phones

229
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 2: and welcome you guys into the mix in bridge Town.

230
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 2: Hey Joe, what do you know?

231
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 3: Hey Yans, how's it going tonight?

232
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 4: Oh?

233
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,559
Speaker 2: Man? For all the build up and excitement in the

234
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 2: great weather, that was kind of a bummer.

235
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 3: Well yeah, and you know, I think that I think

236
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 3: the biggest key for this for this the overall feeling

237
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 3: of it. It's I don't want to say, it felt

238
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 3: like twenty twenty five. All over again, but they and

239
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,719
Speaker 3: I know Crochet is a great is a teck of

240
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 3: a picture. No one's gonna deny that that. I hope

241
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 3: that's the last type of comment we hear, always a

242
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 3: great picture that eventually that excuse has to be thrown

243
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 3: out the window at some point, like the comment Tita

244
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 3: made after the game. I get he's choking, but why

245
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 3: make the oh I wish you were facing Crochet's brother, well,

246
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 3: the Hecker.

247
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 5: What are you saying that for?

248
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 3: After the game? They got bet?

249
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, I.

250
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 3: Say that, Yeah, I get it.

251
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 2: I I think it comes from the picture the Big

252
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 2: one sixty two, and it is one game, and it

253
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 2: was arguably one of the two best pictures in the game.

254
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 2: But to your point, how many times last year and

255
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 2: it began to wear on me the number of times.

256
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 2: Ultimately the comment out of the clubhouse or from the

257
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 2: manager was sometimes you just got to tip your cap,

258
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 2: And I get, I get that concept, but at some

259
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 2: point you got to be able to you got to

260
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 2: be able to at least create a little bit of something,

261
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 2: and they created nothing today, even in three innings against

262
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 2: the bullpen, and I get that's a damn good bullpen.

263
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 2: Win Locket Chapman or two of the best relievers in

264
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 2: the game as well.

265
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 3: And I think that was the other key. As I

266
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:10,920
Speaker 3: said to no buddy of mine for the game, I said,

267
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 3: if they if they're not leading past the seventh inning,

268
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 3: it's I don't care what the score is, You're not

269
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 3: coming back against this team. And I think that's the

270
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 3: biggest step going forward.

271
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 7: Again.

272
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 3: Could it all be erased Saturday?

273
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 8: Yeah?

274
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 3: But what you what you don't want because look at

275
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 3: the look at the pitchers they are going to face

276
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 3: over the next week, and that ain't He's as good

277
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 3: as a pitcher as anybody else. You're gonna be facing

278
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 3: some good ones with the Red Sox and the Pirates.

279
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 3: I would not the notion that this offense and my

280
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 3: biggest criticism with Tea today is you have bases loaded,

281
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 3: two outs, Spencer Steers up, Dame Meyer sits on the bench.

282
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, why not just use him to hit against

283
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 3: the left hander. I'm sorry, Spencer Steers shown in the

284
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 3: past he hasn't been able to hit against left handers

285
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 3: very well. I mean games on the line right there,

286
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 3: and they just it just seems like they played the

287
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 3: game to not It seems very different, Joe.

288
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 2: The beauty is we're gonna have another one on Friday

289
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 2: to discuss and hopefully it's one that evens the market

290
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 2: one and one. If not, then we'll panic on Friday night.

291
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 2: How's that?

292
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 8: Well that that would be?

293
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 3: They're off Tom that's right.

294
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 2: I'm I'm thinking I'm on Saturday, so we'll have to

295
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 2: sit on this one for an extra day. Then then

296
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 2: we can discuss it on Saturday.

297
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 3: And benefit is Saturday will be what fifty degrees, so

298
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 3: it'll be a completely changed weather.

299
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 2: There you go. Hey, thanks Joe, I do all right?

300
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 2: Good hearing from me. Yeah. The uh, the good thing

301
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 2: about opening the way opening Day is set up. There's

302
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 2: the built in rain day on Friday. The good thing

303
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 2: is when when when you win, and now you get

304
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 2: to catch your breath and you get all settled in

305
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 2: and then you go and then when you when you

306
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 2: lose your opener. I remember as a kid, when I

307
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 2: was a kid, they lost on Opening Day. I always

308
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 2: thought the season was over as a kid, because you

309
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 2: always felt like if they one on Opening Day, they

310
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 2: were going to Of course, I was saying this in

311
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 2: nineteen seventy five and seventy six, and they did. But

312
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 2: as a kid that you lose on opening day and

313
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 2: you think, well, now the season's done. Unfortunately, I think

314
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 2: there are some adults who believe when you lose on

315
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 2: opening to day the season is done based on some

316
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 2: of the reaction I'm getting, but I admit, I freely

317
00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 2: admit the deja vous aspect to this. No runs, twelve strikeouts,

318
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 2: three walks, only four hits, leaving eight on one for

319
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 2: seven and runners scoring position. I can't run from that

320
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 2: feeling of well, we talked about that a lot last

321
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 2: season in Bridgetown, Jacob, you were on seven hundred WLW.

322
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 2: How's it going, Lance, I'm hanging in there, Jacob, what

323
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 2: do you think of today?

324
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 4: I don't know.

325
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,199
Speaker 9: First things, first, if the Rozins has given out free pizza,

326
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 9: they would reward it to.

327
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 7: The Red Sox.

328
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:55,680
Speaker 2: Yes. Yes.

329
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,119
Speaker 9: And then second thing I noticed added after the first

330
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 9: couple of innings you settled down.

331
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 5: I give abbit credit.

332
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 9: I mean abbot, like you said, he has shaky spring training,

333
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 9: but then I figured he came out today being like

334
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 9: the abbot we knew.

335
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 10: From last year.

336
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.

337
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 9: And then you can't win games if one you can't

338
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 9: get hitters around.

339
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 11: The score especially in scoring position.

340
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 9: Two, you're not getting offensive production from your whole lineup.

341
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 11: And three, when you have.

342
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 9: Two I want to say, three of the best hitters

343
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 9: and only two of them get the four hits. That's

344
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 9: a big problem.

345
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 10: But I get it.

346
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 11: This picture today for them was.

347
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 9: Outstanding, and I think if.

348
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,159
Speaker 5: They need a it's still early in the season.

349
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 9: I don't count the chickens till they hatch. And I

350
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,639
Speaker 9: still believe in this team right now. It's only game one.

351
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 9: They were just getting the butterflies choken out of him,

352
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 9: getting back in their normal surroundings of home. So I mean,

353
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 9: I'm I'm not worried this team. I still have five potential.

354
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 2: Well there you go, Jacob. Always good hearing from you.

355
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 2: Thank you, and look forward to talking to you during

356
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 2: the season. The three moments for me the kind of

357
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 2: I when I keep my notes, there's the I call

358
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 2: him the circle, the sequence moments. And they were three

359
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 2: consecutive innings, sixth inning, the bases loaded with one out,

360
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,679
Speaker 2: McClean had walked, La singled, Stuart singled, and then Suarez

361
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 2: comes up, and you're thinking, oh man, how about this

362
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 2: you talking about drama. It's opening day, The game is scoreless,

363
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 2: and here comes Auanio Suarez to the plate. He struck out,

364
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 2: and then Steers struck out. End of threat. Seventh inning,

365
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 2: Tyler Stevenson has the lead off walk, and then Will

366
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 2: Benson Pinch hits and he strikes out, and keep Brian

367
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 2: Hayes hits and he flies out, and TJ. Friedel strikes out.

368
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 2: And then you go to the eighth and Stewart has

369
00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 2: the double with two outs and Suarez strikes out. So

370
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 2: what's the theme there? The sixth inning rally included two strikeouts,

371
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 2: the seventh inning attempted rally included two strikeouts, and the

372
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 2: eighth inning attempted rally included a strikeout to end the inning,

373
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 2: twelve strikeouts. When it's all said and done, Red Sox

374
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 2: struck out seven times on the day in winning three

375
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 2: nothing your final score, how about a time out? More

376
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 2: more ahead, more with you five, one, three, seven, four, nine,

377
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 2: eight hundred, the big one. I gotta tell you, I

378
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 2: know they lost, and I'm not excited about that, but

379
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 2: I am incredibly excited about being back with Kelsey Chevrolet

380
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 2: Extra innings and we're rolling until nine tonight on seven

381
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 2: hundred WLW.

382
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 7: No.

383
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 2: The Reds man lost, but I got to listen to

384
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 2: thirty eight special wide eyed Southern Boys hold on Willis

385
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,760

400
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:41,920
Speaker 4: Hey Lamb, thank you so much to my call. Hey

401
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,120
Speaker 4: I it was it thinks to go on entire offseason.

402
00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 4: You get so excited to spend fifteen million on back

403
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 4: and he absolutely just swings and misses. But here's the

404
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,399
Speaker 4: one thing that I took from today. The corporate crowd

405
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 4: of opening day was so dead. That ballpark had forty

406
00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 4: three times people and there was zero juice to it

407
00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 4: in any way, shape or form.

408
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 2: I did not.

409
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 12: I didn't.

410
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 2: I didn't. Why why do you why do you say

411
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't sense that.

412
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 4: He didn't send anything. That's what That's just it.

413
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 2: You think the crowd wasn't You don't think it was

414
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 2: a hyped up crowd for Opening Day?

415
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 4: The hype up crowd went away after like four pitchers

416
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 4: in the first inning.

417
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,879
Speaker 2: There's nothing I mean, I would say a defense of

418
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 2: any fan of the game when you don't score a run.

419
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 2: I mean, it's not like people are going to be

420
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,679
Speaker 2: jumping down and high fiving in the aisle if you

421
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 2: if you don't score a run.

422
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,439
Speaker 4: No, that's true. But at the same time, when you

423
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 4: get forty three thousand people in there in a playoff

424
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 4: game and you need a little bit of momentum, good

425
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 4: baseball towns go ahead and go ahead and give you

426
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 4: that energy. There that was well there.

427
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 2: But Eric, are we spending Opening Day using the takeaway

428
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 2: that the crowd wasn't into the game? I mean, aren't.

429
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 2: Aren't there bigger fish to fry?

430
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,359
Speaker 4: You spent fifteen million dollars to make sure that the

431
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 4: fish she's gonna fry, and and the fish didn't fry.

432
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 4: With the money that you spent, South Stewart did well.

433
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 2: Okay, is probably gonna come to the plate about six

434
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 2: hundred times this season. Are you ready to render a

435
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 2: decision after four?

436
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 4: Absolutely not. But what I'm saying is there's forty three

437
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 4: thousand people sitting there that didn't give a damn whether

438
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 4: or not he came up to bet or not.

439
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 2: I don't know what that means. I don't know.

440
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 4: They didn't get on there, they didn't get off their hands,

441
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 4: They sat there.

442
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 2: I can't, I'm not I'm not gonna do any more

443
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 2: of this. I'm not spending Opening Day debating that the

444
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 2: fans weren't into it on a day where the Reds

445
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 2: didn't score a run? Well, does that mean they? What

446
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,920
Speaker 2: the if there have been fewer people they would What

447
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 2: do you mean they didn't care that A and Swars

448
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 2: came to the plate he got a chair every time

449
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 2: he came to the plate. Today, it's too early for

450
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 2: this white oak we go. JD. You were on seven

451
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 2: hundred WLW.

452
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 13: Lance was going on, how you doing?

453
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 2: I think think I'm okay, how about you?

454
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 10: Well, you know we're gonna survive. But I just wanted

455
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 10: to say this. I've never missed an opening day with

456
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 10: my father. He was born in nineteen sixty five. I

457
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 10: just wanted to say thirty two and twenty nine since

458
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 10: my father has been born, So opening Day in the

459
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 10: grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter, you know, win

460
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 10: or lose, it doesn't matter. They got the seventy five

461
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 10: World Series, seventy six World Series, ninety World Series opening.

462
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 10: I think we put two much emphasis on opening Day.

463
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 10: You got the fans that are, oh we Lostopen Day,

464
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 10: Season's over, blah blah blah.

465
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 7: You know what I mean.

466
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think a lot of that is you have

467
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 2: more of a opening day brings everybody, and everybody is

468
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 2: some who are more of the outsiders or the maybe

469
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 2: the not the die herds. You don't understand that the

470
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 2: biggest pasture and everybody wants to be excited an opening day.

471
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 2: But there's a smaller segment of that who realizes after

472
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,399
Speaker 2: opening Day there's still a h and sixty one games left.

473
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,959
Speaker 2: But I get I having said all that, I know

474
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 2: we went through a winter that sucked and there was

475
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 2: a lot of build up and excitement and there was

476
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 2: very little excitement today, So I understand that as well.

477
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,399
Speaker 7: Exactly, you know, you got the casual fans that Cats

478
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 7: opening day and it's a loss and all season's over,

479
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 7: but it's a long season. We got one hundred and

480
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 7: sixty one more to go. This game does not define anything.

481
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 2: I think if your takeaway had you told me at

482
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 2: the start of today, what would you want out of this,

483
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 2: obviously I would have set a win, but I would

484
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 2: have said quickly after that, I really need to see

485
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 2: Andrew Abbott pitch well. And he really pitched well. And

486
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 2: that's what I'm going to take away. And you know,

487
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 2: put under the pillow tonight when I put my head

488
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 2: on the pillow and think, all right, all things considered,

489
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 2: they needed him to do exactly what he did, and

490
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 2: he delivered, and that's a good thing.

491
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 9: Exactly.

492
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,360
Speaker 7: Andrew Abbott is going to be a key in this rotation,

493
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 7: and he showed up when it mattered.

494
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:02,719
Speaker 13: I'm happy with that.

495
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 4: J D.

496
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 2: You're the man. Have a great night you too, thank

497
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 2: you for checking in. How about uh wait a minute,

498
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 2: let me go, let me go to Walton, Kentucky. You

499
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 2: see Chris.

500
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 5: Hey hey, First of all, that two callers go that

501
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 5: that dumb ones. I thought that big head. I thought

502
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 5: that big dude for the Red Sox only threw three

503
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 5: pitches in the first thing? Did he throw four?

504
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 2: It was very few? Let's put it that way.

505
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,959
Speaker 5: All right, So just I got one question for you.

506
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,720
Speaker 5: But do you know Dan Hoard's reverse radio he does?

507
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 14: Uh?

508
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 2: No?

509
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 5: Or where he asked the callers questions?

510
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think I do remember that?

511
00:26:53,960 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, yeah, exactly exactly. So I got a kind

512
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 5: of a version for that. So I'm going to give

513
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 5: you your response, and you're going to give me my question.

514
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 5: Are you ready?

515
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 2: All right? Yeah? I think he had a.

516
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:15,119
Speaker 5: Terrible spring, Chris, and gave you six scoreless innings and

517
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 5: was that eighty three pitches? Okay? What's my question.

518
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 2: Is Andrew Abbott?

519
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 9: Uh?

520
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 2: Is Andrew Abbit in trouble after a poor spring?

521
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 14: No?

522
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 5: Why don't you running back out in the seventh inning?

523
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 4: What?

524
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 2: Now, wait a minute, he threw eighty three pitches. It's

525
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 2: opening day. He hadn't thrown that many at the entire spring.

526
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 5: I just read your response before that question and your

527
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 5: answering it exactly like I knew you were.

528
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 2: How many wait, well, how many pitchers? Do you think

529
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,679
Speaker 2: a baseball threw more than eighty three pitches today?

530
00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 5: Okay, if he's settled down, he's pitching, Well, he's at

531
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 5: eighty three. Don't you want to build up your pictures

532
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 5: from day one to go at least on day one.

533
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 2: If not, no, not on day one, not when everybody

534
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 2: else is rested and ready to go.

535
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 5: I don't care what everybody else does. Negative you're wrong.

536
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 5: We need our starting pitchers to throw one hundred pitcher

537
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 5: one hundred pitches and build a real last suit.

538
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 2: Last season, I had the average major league pitcher through

539
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 2: ninety through eighty five pitches in a start, the average

540
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 2: starter through eighty five for the season. This is in

541
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 2: nineteen seventy anymore. It just you're not going to do

542
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 2: that on the first game. There will be opportunity to

543
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 2: throw one hundred pitches, but you're not going to do

544
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 2: in the first game.

545
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 5: Okay, Lance, I will argue with you about this every

546
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:56,239
Speaker 5: single time. I completely disagree and then yes, it's not

547
00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 5: the nineteen seventies, and it's sad that it's not. It's

548
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 5: not even the eighties or ninety. But it's your objective

549
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 5: with your starting pitcher. Give them to go six and

550
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 5: seven innings instead.

551
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 2: I would love to continue to engage in this. I'm

552
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 2: a minute and a half late for news. I gotta

553
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 2: run well.

554
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 5: One last statement. I'll just say it's great that read

555
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 5: Baseball's back because we get to nitpick about games all day.

556
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 2: No doubt about that. Thank you, sir. Bia he is

Speaker 2: way here to talk about it. Three nothing. The final

577
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 2: score was a It was just an absolutely gorgeous day.

578
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 2: I mean, the weather could not have been better. Walking

579
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,719
Speaker 2: down I always do the same thing every year. I'm

580
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 2: a very routine oriented guy. Birk at Newport of the Lovey.

581
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 2: Sometimes I'll take the shuttle across the bridge. Today I

582
00:30:57,040 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 2: walked across the bridge in a dorky way. I look

583
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 2: at walking across the bridge towards the stadium as walking

584
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 2: to the beginning of a new baseball season. That's the

585
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 2: doork in me. And then walk around the banks, and

586
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 2: then eventually I wind up in the Holy Grail for

587
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 2: the show. It was fantastic today. It was great hanging

588
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,160
Speaker 2: out with the crew from seven hundred WLW. What a

589
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 2: day for our sales department, what a day for programming.

590
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 2: It was just top to bottom start to finish. A

591
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 2: fantastic day for all involved. And I say this every year,

592
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 2: Thank you to the Holy Grail for hosting us and

593
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 2: taking care of us as you do. And I don't

594
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 2: know how they execute opening day like that. Maybe the

595
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 2: argument is they've done on enough there now they've got

596
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:46,080
Speaker 2: it down. This was their sixteenth opening day. But where

597
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 2: we sit, we're up on a raised stage, so you

598
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 2: get a view of everything happening, and watching their staff

599
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 2: and their servers and bartenders handle that crowd and the

600
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 2: manner they do is a he is a thing of

601
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 2: just precision and excellence that I marvel at every year

602
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 2: and I get I don't how they do it, but

603
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 2: they do have a hell of a job with it.

604
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 2: So thank you to hold the Grail for having us.

605
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 2: Thanks to everybody who stopped buying and said hey, or jezus,

606
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 2: I signed somebody's jersey. I said, you sure you want

607
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 2: me to sign that jersey? And and that was cool

608
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 2: and Uh, really enjoyed the conversation today, even with Willie.

609
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 2: Don't tell him I said that, But even with Willie

610
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,760
Speaker 2: if you missed it, Willie endo the show by wrapping

611
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 2: his message to the Reds and if you missed it, yes, again.

612
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 2: He didn't get the rap finished before the network part

613
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 2: of the inside pitch kicked in and he was left wondering,

614
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 2: why don't I have more time? It's become a thing

615
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 2: the last few years, many shouting don't give him any

616
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 2: more time. Lord knows he's had enough. Three nothing was

617
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 2: the final though, and that's where the bummer comes in.

618
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 2: Andrew Abbott was excellent. Dinah might shaky spring six shutout

619
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 2: innings today, but scoreless into the seventh. The Red Sox

620
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 2: push across to run against Pierce Johnson. Then they tack

621
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 2: on two in the ninth, and the significance of the

622
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 2: two in the ninth obviously insurance. But it all came

623
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 2: following an abs challenged at the Red Sox won their

624
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 2: young hitter at Roman Anthony. Instead of striking out to

625
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:26,200
Speaker 2: end the inning, challenged a pitch, it was re overturned

626
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 2: into a ball. It extended the inning. The Red Sox

627
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,239
Speaker 2: scored the two tack on runs to make it three

628
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 2: to nothing. The final score. The Reds managed just four hits,

629
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 2: three by Sal Stewart. They strike out twelve times, they

630
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 2: go one for seven with runners in scoring position. They

631
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 2: strand eight runners, and that aspect felt a lot like

632
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 2: last season did, when they were shut out thirteen times

633
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 2: and a third of the games last year scored three

634
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 2: runs or fewer. To you see Chris's point in the

635
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 2: last hour of sending out Andrew Rabbit for another inning,

636
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 2: through eighty three pitches, you need Andrew Abbot. That goes

637
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 2: without saying, I'd add, you really really need Andrew Abbit

638
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 2: right now. Based on the circumstances of the starting rotation,

639
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 2: I thought eighty three pitches with a little bit of

640
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 2: laboring at times was fine. I looked around Major League

641
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 2: Baseball during the break, and I see Terrek Scouble, the

642
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 2: best pitcher in baseball through seventy four pitches. Today, I

643
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 2: see pitches thrown by starters of sixty nine, seventy three,

644
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,160
Speaker 2: seventy eight. I do see eighty I see eighty seven.

645
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,239
Speaker 2: I see a one oh two that is managerial male

646
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 2: practice in Houston, and Hunter Brown pitched four and two

647
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 2: thirds innings and threw one hundred and two pitches on

648
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 2: opening Day. And maybe I say that because he's on

649
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,680
Speaker 2: my fantasy team and I don't want him hurt. But

650
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 2: I see eighty eight pitches, eighty five pitches, sixty three pitches,

651
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 2: seventy five pitches, fifty four, thirty seven, eighty I see

652
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 2: a ninety four. But I'd have to go back and

653
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 2: look at the workload of those pitchers during the spring

654
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 2: as well. I just can't see pressing it, pushing the envelope.

655
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,160
Speaker 2: In Game one, you got him out of it was

656
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,239
Speaker 2: a clean inning in the sixth and handed things off

657
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 2: then to your bullpen. The bullpen did not deliver after that.

658
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 2: It was a four pitch first inning. By the way,

659
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 2: you see Chris was asking the Red saw four pitches

660
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 2: from Garrett Crochet in the first Friedol two pitches McClain,

661
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 2: one pitch, La one pitch. Fact to Crochet only throwing

662
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 2: thirty three pitches through the first three innings tonight, and

663
00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:26,360
Speaker 2: the Reds miss an opportunity, a big one in the sixth,

664
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 2: one on the seventh, one on the eighth au Andio

665
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 2: Suarez in his return, goes zero for four with three strikeouts.

666
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 2: South Stewart has an Opening Day He'll never forget. First

667
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 2: Red's rookie since nineteen fifty eight, when the rookie designation

668
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:42,880
Speaker 2: became a thing in Major League Baseball. First Reds rookie

669
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 2: on opening Day to get three hits in a game.

670
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,800
Speaker 2: He had three, including two doubles. All right, let's go

671
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 2: to the phones. Five one, three, seven, four, nine, seven thousand, one,

672
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 2: eight hundred, the big one. How about I get a Dayton,

673
00:35:55,200 --> 00:36:04,400
Speaker 2: Ohio James. You were on seven hundred, WLW lamp Hey.

674
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:09,280
Speaker 14: So a couple of things. One, you know, Dufty Baker

675
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,440
Speaker 14: used to do this all the time. You let our

676
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 14: starters go in the first week for ninety five pitches.

677
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,760
Speaker 14: I'm like, are you serious? I think ninety five pitches?

678
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 14: And so it's happened before, and it'll happen, you know,

679
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 14: with other teams as well. But I think that the

680
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 14: main reason I'm calling is to say that Abbot. I mean,

681
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 14: obviously we're concerned, right, We've got a Hunter Green on

682
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 14: the IL. We've got Lodolu on the IL. I don't

683
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 14: know how long these blisters take. I really don't know.

684
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 14: But with Abbot's short, short, short spring training stint, I

685
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 14: was concerned, and I know we lost today, but frankly,

686
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,719
Speaker 14: much more important than the loss is just seeing how

687
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,280
Speaker 14: well Abbot control his pitches in the way he change

688
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 14: it up as speeds and the batters were, you know,

689
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 14: off balance. To me, that's more important than the final score.

690
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, had you told me, had you told

691
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,760
Speaker 2: me they won today, but Andrew Abbott went four innings,

692
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 2: gave up six runs in the reds rally late to

693
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 2: win it, I'd be sitting here in One of our

694
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 2: talking points would be we have to address the elephant

695
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,479
Speaker 2: of the room, Andrew Abbott after everybody said he'll shake

696
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,160
Speaker 2: off the spring and pitch well. If he had struggled today,

697
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 2: that would have been a bigger story for me than

698
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,320
Speaker 2: winning on opening day.

699
00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 14: So with Lodolo, I guess he's throwing in the bullten

700
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 14: I mean, I don't get it, Like, why not just

701
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 14: put your hand down and just not pitch for ten days?

702
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 14: I don't understand.

703
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 2: They want what they what they want him to do.

704
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 2: And Tito talked about this in the pregame. He's able

705
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 2: to toss, to keep his arm more or less moving.

706
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 2: You don't want him to stop because basically every day

707
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 2: he stops throwing, is a day that it's going to

708
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 2: take to get him back up again so he can toss.

709
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 2: I mean he's not tossing full speed, he's not tossing

710
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,800
Speaker 2: full grip on the ball, but he is tossing to

711
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 2: keep the arm movement going. But they believe that it'll

712
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:18,720
Speaker 2: be fifteen days and then he'll be ready to return.

713
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,479
Speaker 2: It's not going to be extended beyond that.

714
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 4: All right.

715
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 14: So last one, Lance is if you were a a

716
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 14: Reds rookie, would you take salth Stewart's performance today?

717
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 2: Oh? Man, can you imagine? I mean, what what a

718
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 2: what a thrill to think you get. You get to

719
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 2: stand on the baseline for your introduction for the first

720
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 2: time in your life as a big leaguer, and you

721
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 2: get three hits in two doubles and one of those

722
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:50,560
Speaker 2: moments you'll never forget.

723
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 14: That was a I mean, so that was good for me.

724
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 14: I mean, Abbott and Stuart doing well is all I need.

725
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:05,320
Speaker 14: I don't care about Owen one. Boston's a great team.

726
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:09,520
Speaker 14: Owen one means nothing to me. Those two guys performing

727
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 14: is everything.

728
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:15,399
Speaker 2: Hey, James, always good hearing from you, Thank you, Thank you, sir.

729
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,279
Speaker 2: Let's take a look at the home run leaders around

00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 2: Joey Weimer, the former UC Bearcat short time read homeward

737
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,160
Speaker 2: on opening day for the Nationals. And Mike Trout. I

738
00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 2: think it's the fifth opening day that Mike Trout has

739
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:52,359
Speaker 2: homered on. It all happened today and it's all part

745
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,960

00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 2: early games, early evening games perdue the two seed leading Texas,

747
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 2: the eleven seed thirty nine thirty eight. Just underway in

Speaker 2: the second half, perdue over Texas thirty nine thirty eight

749
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:36,839
Speaker 2: at halftime, Nebraska leading Iowa forty six forty three. That's

750
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:41,000
Speaker 2: four seed Nebraska leading nine seed Iowa forty six forty three.

751
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 2: Still to come. Arkansas versus Arizona, Illinois versus Houston Springdale.

752
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 2: We go, Dave, you are on seven hundred WLW welcome.

753
00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:52,360
Speaker 4: How you doing, Lance?

754
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 12: Hey, You've just got to love the nature of fans

755
00:40:55,880 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 12: because it's short for fanatic. The people, no question, the

756
00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 12: people who polish in the World Series Trophy a month

757
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 12: ago when we signed Suarez, and the same ones that

758
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 12: have all jumped off the bandwagon after one loss. So

759
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:11,839
Speaker 12: let's bring this back to logic a little bit.

760
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,399
Speaker 2: I do have some concerns, and the.

761
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:18,279
Speaker 12: Concerns are, if they are going to continue to beat

762
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 12: Sal in front of Suarez, with the bats that are

763
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,959
Speaker 12: behind Suarez, they're going to pitch around him all year.

764
00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 12: I think that's a big concern. I would personally switch

765
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:29,720
Speaker 12: those two in vetue.

766
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 2: You mean, I'm sorry, you mean you mean they'll they'll

767
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,840
Speaker 2: pitch around Sal to get to au Haaneo.

768
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 12: No, no, no, they'll pitch around Suarez because to get.

769
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:43,839
Speaker 2: To Stevenson or Steer or anybody else.

770
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 4: Yeah.

771
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 12: So, and the expectations of people when they signed Suarez,

772
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,360
Speaker 12: I'm like, look, they were they barely got into the playoffs.

773
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 12: Are a little over five hundred. You know, they added

774
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,760
Speaker 12: a good bet. They didn't add Juan Soto or Aaron Judge.

775
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 12: They had a good bat man. He's an upgrade, but

776
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:05,799
Speaker 12: he's not you know, oh Tommy, and.

777
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 2: He's the only one guy.

778
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 4: Yeah.

779
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 12: I mean I would say that makes us more like

780
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,920
Speaker 12: eighty five eighty six wins, which is great, but you know,

781
00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 12: I mean it's not like we have and got three

782
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 12: or four bats that we probably needed. I mean, our

783
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,760
Speaker 12: left field and right field production and third base production

784
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 12: are all very poor. So, you know, I don't understand

785
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:32,520
Speaker 12: the people that thought Suarez by himself was enough.

786
00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. And David, you bring up a great point on

787
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:38,920
Speaker 2: au Ineo, because we know part of his makeup is

788
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 2: he's gonna be very streaky. I mean, I think we

789
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 2: all understand he's going to strike out a lot. We

790
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 2: all also understand that he's probably gonna run into a

791
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:48,160
Speaker 2: number of if he hits in the thirties home run

792
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,720
Speaker 2: wise for this team, it'll be huge. But there's gonna

793
00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 2: be stretches where he's not gonna hit water from a boat,

794
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 2: and then there's gonna be stretches where he's gonna carry

795
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 2: this team, hopefully for a week. But that's that's just

796
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 2: who Suarez is. That shouldn't come as a surprise to anybody.

797
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:03,080
Speaker 12: Yeah, I think everybody thinks he's going to walk back

798
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:06,280
Speaker 12: in and hit forty nine more home runs. I'm like, guys,

799
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 12: let's look it.

800
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,640
Speaker 2: So that easy, right.

801
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,800
Speaker 12: And the other thing was, you know, losing to Crochet

802
00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 12: is there's no shame in that. I mean, I'm not

803
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 12: I'm not one for you know, you know, you know,

804
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,279
Speaker 12: it's not a victory say, oh, well, you know, he's

805
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 12: really good, so we lost. But it's not a reason

806
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 12: to jump off a cliff either. I mean, the guy

807
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,879
Speaker 12: is lights out. So I mean, I think it's great

808
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:34,040
Speaker 12: that that you know, Avid pitched. Well, it is concerning

809
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,359
Speaker 12: that the Reds continue to strike out at a high rate.

810
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 12: But you know, we'll see if this continues against lesser pitching,

811
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 12: you know, if they want to say, all right, you know,

812
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 12: against the schemes and the you know Scoobles and and Crochets.

813
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,760
Speaker 12: If they want their offense to be successful against those guys,

814
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 12: and you've got to do more than just sign Suarez.

815
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good point as well, Dave. Thank you.

816
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:02,960
Speaker 2: Any thinks appreciate check it in. I gotta tell you,

817
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:06,719
Speaker 2: I love this this conversation tonight, other than the conversation

818
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,320
Speaker 2: with UC Chris, which caused me to want to drink momentarily,

819
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,840
Speaker 2: I think I've enjoyed all this and I enjoyed you see, Chris,

820
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 2: he just made me want to drink a beer in

821
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 2: the middle of our talk Hillsboro We Go, Jason, you

822
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 2: were on seven hundred WLW.

823
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,160
Speaker 11: Okay, I didn't get to go to the game today,

824
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 11: but I got to listen to it on the radio,

825
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 11: and I'm I was listening to the numbers you were

826
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,600
Speaker 11: talking about about all the pitchers throwing, how many pitches

827
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,279
Speaker 11: they've thrown. I really think Abbot could have at least

828
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 11: gone one more inning and got him around eighty five

829
00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 11: ninety pitches, maybe ninety five pitches, because some of the

830
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 11: other players at pitchers you were talking about probably had

831
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,479
Speaker 11: they had the fifties and sixty pitches because they probably

832
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,879
Speaker 11: gave up six or seven runs. But at the same

833
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:51,160
Speaker 11: point in time, I was kind of frustrated when every

834
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 11: time Sam Maull come in last year, this year, anybody

835
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,960
Speaker 11: in our relieving pitchers, they pitched three batters and then

836
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,520
Speaker 11: they're gone, instead of letting them continue to carry it

837
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 11: through to the next inning. I mean, it's almost like

838
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 11: we're scared of the pitch we haven't thrown yet. I mean,

839
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 11: they're better that Maul put down in three straight pitches,

840
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,080
Speaker 11: had two hits already, and he just plowed him around

841
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,799
Speaker 11: like he was playing te ball. But yet here we go.

842
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,839
Speaker 11: He pitches great for one inning and then we pull

843
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 11: him and then we give up the three runs or

844
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:23,640
Speaker 11: we give up all the runs to the next guys.

845
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:29,760
Speaker 2: That's where well, now, now remember he did well, I understand.

846
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,759
Speaker 2: Let's remember they brought Sam mal back out for the

847
00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 2: next inning. I mean, they didn't yankee him after the

848
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:37,360
Speaker 2: inning he was pitching it. He finished the inning and

849
00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,360
Speaker 2: then was sent back back for the next day. But

850
00:45:39,480 --> 00:45:43,320
Speaker 2: I understand your I will default to this. I thought

851
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,359
Speaker 2: that you you don't want to push it in the

852
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 2: opening game, and if you get out of it, if

853
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 2: you get six shoutout innings, and it was it's you

854
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,359
Speaker 2: can hand off a clean inning in the seven tier

855
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 2: bullpen which hasn't pitched, and he's gonna have tomorrow off

856
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 2: and you can use multiple arms. You're going to do that.

857
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 2: I just think eighty three. I'd have to look. I

858
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:08,320
Speaker 2: don't know that Andrew threw more than eighty three pitches

859
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 2: in a spring game, So I just I don't want

860
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 2: to take him into territory he hasn't done. I want

861
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,319
Speaker 2: to gradually do that. And I was I was fine

862
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,480
Speaker 2: with six shot outings. I think it'd be different if

863
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 2: the bullpen had not given up three runs after that.

864
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,360
Speaker 2: But I err on the side of protecting Andrew Abbitt

865
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:24,320
Speaker 2: more than anything else.

866
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,960
Speaker 11: Yeah, I understand. I'm I'm just from old school like you.

867
00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:35,120
Speaker 11: I'm I'm used to seeing or I missed the complete games.

868
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,400
Speaker 11: I missed the people pitching deep into the seventh and

869
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:39,560
Speaker 11: eighth inning, And I'm like, we pay these guys so

870
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 11: much money for five innings. I mean, last year it

871
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 11: seemed like that there wasn't a pitcher who went after

872
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 11: for the rest and went more than five innings. I'm like,

873
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,960
Speaker 11: why are we pulling them so soon? Just to save

874
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,440
Speaker 11: them for. What what are we saving them for if

875
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 11: we can't get there? And then all of a sudden,

876
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,440
Speaker 11: the bullten blows it, and the bullten blows it, and

877
00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 11: the bull ten blows it, and I know all the

878
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 11: games we lost by one run, which was very frustrating

879
00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:05,680
Speaker 11: last year too. So I'm like, I don't understand.

880
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 13: Why we can't let these guys pitch.

881
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:07,640
Speaker 11: We pay them all this money.

882
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 2: Hey, Jason, I enjoyed this. Let's talk again during the season.

883
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 2: All right, thank you, brother, all right, thanks for the

884
00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:15,920
Speaker 2: call man. This is good stuff tonight. I know, a

885
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 2: very frustrating game, and I get the I get the frustration.

886
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:22,839
Speaker 2: We'll come back with more and roll till nine. It's

887

895
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:52,359
Speaker 2: become tomorrow's leaders. This will be an easy one. Let's

896
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 2: go strikeout leaders in Major League Baseball. Brewers pitching struck

897
00:47:56,040 --> 00:48:01,160
Speaker 2: out twenty Chicago White Sox twenty, a major league record

898
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:03,400
Speaker 2: on opening day. There have been ten teams now in

899
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:06,480
Speaker 2: the history of baseball to record twenty strikeouts as a

900
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,280
Speaker 2: staff on opening day. Brewers beat up the White Sox

00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:13,160
Speaker 2: fourteen to two, Jacob Mazeroski leading the way with eleven

902

Speaker 2: Burns Fan Scoreboard. A couple of things of note. Mets

907
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:33,880
Speaker 2: beat the Pirates eleven to seven. Paul Skens did not

908
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 2: make it out of the first inning. Two thirds of

909
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,800
Speaker 2: an inning, four hits, five runs, shortest adding of his career.

910
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 2: It's the shortest outing by reigning Cy Young Award winner

911
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 2: on opening day in the history of the game. Through

912

Speaker 2: thirty seven pitches, five runs, walked, a couple of batters,

913
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 2: although he did not get help by his defense. O'Neil

914
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 2: crue should be ashamed of himself the way he played

915
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,760
Speaker 2: center field. Today, Milwaukee beat the White Sox. Has mentioned

916
00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 2: fourteen to two. Bad news for the Brewers Jackson Schurio

917
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 2: before the game was announced. He landed on the injured

918
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,360
Speaker 2: list with a fractured left hand. Will missed two to

919
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 2: four weeks. Nationals beat up the Cubs ten to four.

920
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:10,319
Speaker 2: Nico Herner Horner, according to reports, has signed a six

921
00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 2: year extension with the Cubs. That's geez. Earlier this week

922
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,120
Speaker 2: it was Pete crow Armstrong signing a six year extension

923
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:19,640
Speaker 2: with the Cubs. Baltimore beat Minnesota two to one behind

924
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:23,880
Speaker 2: Trevor Rodgers. The angel snapped an eight game road opening

925
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,720
Speaker 2: day losing streak. They won in Houston three to nothing.

926
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:31,120
Speaker 2: Detroit over San Diego. Kevin McGonagall, twenty one year old

927
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:34,520
Speaker 2: shortstop for the Tigers, played forty six games at double

928
00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:37,479
Speaker 2: A last year, made his major league debut today four

929
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 2: hits and two runs driven in Holy Moly, Philadelphia over

930
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 2: Texas five to three. Christopher Sanchez six innings, no runs,

931
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,799
Speaker 2: no walks, ten strikeouts. They took him out after eighty

932
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,919
Speaker 2: seven pitches, and the Cardinals rallied to beat the Rays

933
00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,759
Speaker 2: nine to seven. Rais led that game seven to one

934
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 2: in the sixth inning, lost nine to seven. Those are

935
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 2: your scores around Major League Baseball. Following up on the

936
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,400
Speaker 2: last caller in the frustration of Andrew Abbit, couple of

937
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 2: things I looked up during the break Andrew during the spring.

938
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 2: Here's his pitches per outing in spring training, starting with

939
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:16,319
Speaker 2: his first twenty seven, then twenty seven, forty three, sixty three,

940
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 2: sixty nine, seventy six, and on Saturday he threw eighty four,

941
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:24,239
Speaker 2: So he did get up to eighty four. He threw

942
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:28,800
Speaker 2: eighty three today. It would be my guess, you one

943
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:32,279
Speaker 2: wanted to You didn't want to at that close to

944
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:34,439
Speaker 2: the most he had thrown. You didn't want to send

945
00:50:34,480 --> 00:50:37,319
Speaker 2: him back out for the next inning. Maybe have to

946
00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 2: take him out in the middle of an inning, hand

947
00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:41,359
Speaker 2: it over your bullpen when it's not a clean inning

948
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:45,040
Speaker 2: and there's traffic on the basis. That would be my guess.

949
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 2: I just and here's the bigger picture, and it's part

950
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:52,320
Speaker 2: of understandably the frustration with how the game has changed.

951
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:56,959
Speaker 2: The average major league pitcher last year in baseball threw

952
00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 2: just a tick under five a third innings. Let me

953
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:05,800
Speaker 2: repeat that, not Red's pitchers. The average pitcher in baseball

954
00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 2: last year pitched five and bear almost a third of

955
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:14,799
Speaker 2: an inning per start. The average major league starter last

956
00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:19,919
Speaker 2: year through eighty five pitches per game. Red's starters last

957
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 2: year through eighty seven per game. They threw more than

958
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 2: the league average. There are only two teams in baseball

959
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 2: last year who starters threw on average more than ninety

960
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 2: pitches a start, the Phillies ninety one, the Guardians ninety one.

961
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 2: Only three pitchers through at least two hundred innings last year.

962
00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:43,440
Speaker 2: It's just it's a different way of approaching it, and

963
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:47,880
Speaker 2: it's not it's it's driven more by this, the idea

964
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 2: of the third time through the lineup, not as much

965
00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,359
Speaker 2: as driven by a pitch count, like can't let him

966
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:58,359
Speaker 2: do this. It's the numbers will show. Once batters get

967
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 2: to see a starting pitcher a third time, the success

968
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 2: of the pitcher drops. So that just happens to be

969
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:10,200
Speaker 2: usually around the fifth inning. And in this day and age,

970
00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:13,799
Speaker 2: it is the classic like five and dive. Give us five,

971
00:52:13,920 --> 00:52:16,480
Speaker 2: maybe five and a third. Then we hand it over

972
00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:18,759
Speaker 2: the bullpen and here comes the first guy throwing one

973
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:20,680
Speaker 2: hundred miles an hour for an inning, and give me

974
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:22,600
Speaker 2: the next guy throwing one hundred miles an hour for

975
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 2: one inning, and give me another guy throwing one hundred

976
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 2: and one miles an hour for an inning, and it

977
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:31,279
Speaker 2: just boom, boom boom. Keep changing the batters, don't see

978
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:35,160
Speaker 2: the same pitcher twice. And it's power, and it's it's

979
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:39,279
Speaker 2: it's just the way it is, and it's it's not

980
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:46,160
Speaker 2: going back to the nineteen seventies. Complete games are are dinosaurs.

981
00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:52,279
Speaker 2: There'll be very few and far between. In fact, I

982
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,280
Speaker 2: bet I can pull it up here as I'm talking

983
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:59,120
Speaker 2: last season in Major League Baseball, Can I give you

984
00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:03,759
Speaker 2: an exact number of complete games in all of baseball? Yes?

985
00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:08,360
Speaker 2: I can. Here you go. Last year Major League Baseball,

986
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:12,440
Speaker 2: thirty teams playing one hundred and sixty two games, a

987
00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:17,640
Speaker 2: total of what four eight hundred and sixty games? There

988
00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:23,560
Speaker 2: were twenty nine complete games in Major League Baseball twenty nine.

989
00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:28,520
Speaker 2: The Reds led Major League Baseball with four complete games.

990
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,120
Speaker 2: Now I think one of those was a rain out

991
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:37,400
Speaker 2: complete game. There were one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen,

992
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,080
Speaker 2: Thirteen Major league teams did not have a complete game

993
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:44,279
Speaker 2: last year in Major League Baseball. Again, I know it

994
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:48,400
Speaker 2: doesn't call them the frustrations, but that's Major League Baseball.

995
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:52,160
Speaker 2: Today in Dayton, we go Grandpa Mike. You were on

996
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:53,760
Speaker 2: seven hundred WLW.

997
00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:56,360
Speaker 13: We say you doing, young man.

998
00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:58,759
Speaker 2: I am well. Good to hear your voice. What's on

999
00:53:58,800 --> 00:53:59,200
Speaker 2: your mind?

1000
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:05,040
Speaker 13: A couple of things. It's been a great day. I

1001
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,880
Speaker 13: disagree with the gentleman who called earlier about Abbot coming

1002
00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:13,120
Speaker 13: out for the next inning. I agree with you, it's

1003
00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:19,400
Speaker 13: so early. My frustration though. The Red had opportunities today

1004
00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:28,640
Speaker 13: and it seems like I gotn't mean discurse, but it

1005
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,319
Speaker 13: was the same thing I've seen in the past, and

1006
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 13: that frustrated me. Again. It's only opening day. I think

1007
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:41,759
Speaker 13: they'll be fine. I'm so proud of South Store for

1008
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:46,520
Speaker 13: the day he had today. Hats off to him.

1009
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:51,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, And I think you bring up a fair

1010
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:55,160
Speaker 2: point on the and I hope we can bake into

1011
00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:59,880
Speaker 2: the equation the adrenaline rush of opening day. Auneo one

1012
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,120
Speaker 2: to please people in day one, and there were some

1013
00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:05,200
Speaker 2: if you go back and look at the two strikes swing,

1014
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 2: there were some come out of your shoes batting helmet

1015
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:11,120
Speaker 2: is a little bit shaky on your head. And let's

1016
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,640
Speaker 2: hope that that is uh, that classic out of the

1017
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:16,840
Speaker 2: system and everybody settles down for Saturday.

1018
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:21,840
Speaker 13: I think they will. They got they got the talent

1019
00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:28,080
Speaker 13: if everybody stays healthy. And that's the biggest question. I

1020
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:32,239
Speaker 13: think You're pitching is fine. You know they gave up

1021
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:37,359
Speaker 13: three runs. Okay, last year they lord they got shut

1022
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:41,400
Speaker 13: out thirteen times and they it was eighteen games. They

1023
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:46,279
Speaker 13: only scored one run. Yeah, it was something like that.

1024
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:49,360
Speaker 13: I don't I may not be exact, but that concerns

1025
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:51,719
Speaker 13: me because you know they had they hit Basis lud

1026
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:54,279
Speaker 13: at one inning and I can remember here was a

1027
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:57,400
Speaker 13: point out or two out at a time, and I'm

1028
00:55:58,080 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 13: laid at.

1029
00:55:58,560 --> 00:55:58,920
Speaker 4: Them, but.

1030
00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:01,759
Speaker 8: It was suicide.

1031
00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:05,560
Speaker 13: Please and really shake him up. And I'm old school.

1032
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:08,840
Speaker 13: I'm seventy one. I'm old school, but I'm gonna let

1033
00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 13: you go. And I'm sitting down here at Dean's Park

1058
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:28,200
Speaker 2: anniversary the seventy five team, we kind of tracked every

1059
00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 2: day where the seventy five team was at that point

1060
00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 2: during the season. Well, we decided we're going to run

1061
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:36,600
Speaker 2: it back for the seventy six team and the fiftieth anniversary.

1062

1066
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:47,880

1072
00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:08,200
Speaker 15: A lot of people get their kicks talking trash about America.

1073
00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:09,880
Speaker 2: That just goes to show how ignorant they are.

1074
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 15: Someone needs to sit their butts down and give them

1075
00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 15: a good solid dose of Bill Cunningham.

1076
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 3: Willie will teach them how lucky they are to be American.

1110
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:08,200
Speaker 2: the number twenty prospect. Jose Franco also was on the

1111
01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:10,120
Speaker 2: original roster, then they had to add him to the

1112
01:00:10,120 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 2: major league roster. He may eventually be back there. By

1113
01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:15,760
Speaker 2: the way, I checked on the on his own pronunciation,

1114
01:00:16,280 --> 01:00:17,840
Speaker 2: the Reds do a thing with the players where they

1115
01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:19,520
Speaker 2: hold up a card with their last name and then

1116
01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:23,400
Speaker 2: they say it. He said Franco. So I'm going with Franco.

1117
01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 2: Some have said Franco, some have said Franco. I asked

1118
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:29,560
Speaker 2: Nick Kerran, the voice of the Bats, what he went

1119
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:32,240
Speaker 2: by last season, and he said, we called him Franco,

1120
01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:35,240
Speaker 2: but he was kind of noncommittal on what he wanted

1121
01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:39,200
Speaker 2: to be called. And I'm going by what the player

1122
01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 2: himself said when he pronounced it, he pronounced his name

1123
01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:46,520
Speaker 2: is Jose Franco Franco, so we're calling him Jose Franco.

1124
01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:49,880
Speaker 2: The cool news at Triple A Louisville is Trevor Kunsel

1125
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:53,640
Speaker 2: has been assigned to Triple A Louisville. Friend of the show,

1126
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:57,800
Speaker 2: local product went to Saint X, was a position player

1127
01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:01,280
Speaker 2: in college, reinvented himself as a pitcher, went to Drive Line,

1128
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 2: started throwing one hundred miles an hour. Was pitching in

1129
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,680
Speaker 2: the Frontier League All Star Game in the league that

1130
01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:11,880
Speaker 2: the Florence y'alls play in the Reds discovered him, signed him.

1131
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 2: He pitched at Double A last year. He was really good,

1132
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:16,880
Speaker 2: and he's going up to Triple A this year. I

1133
01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:18,960
Speaker 2: sent him a text earlier. I could not be happier

1134
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:21,960
Speaker 2: for him. He'll be Triple A. I gotta get down

1135
01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:24,320
Speaker 2: and watch a game this year hopefully he pitches. But

1136
01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:28,520
Speaker 2: cool for him, that's a really good deal. Happy for him.

1137
01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 2: Let's go some more phones. How about where my guy

1138
01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:35,080
Speaker 2: Bryce go? Bryce dropped? How about Bill was at the

1139
01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:36,840
Speaker 2: game today? Hey Bill? What'd you think?

1140
01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 8: Well, we're both in our sevenies. We've never been Opening

1141
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:46,000
Speaker 8: Day and we went last year and he had such

1142
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:48,439
Speaker 8: a good time, and so we did again this year.

1143
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 8: And I mean, we're invested in the Reds. We have

1144
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:56,840
Speaker 8: several years we've gotten twenty game packages, so I mean,

1145
01:01:57,040 --> 01:02:01,040
Speaker 8: we're not down on the Reds, but you get, I

1146
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:03,720
Speaker 8: understand the frustrating and I know it's only one game.

1147
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:06,400
Speaker 8: And I thought Abba did well and I understand what

1148
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:09,520
Speaker 8: they why they took him out. And I did comment

1149
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:12,880
Speaker 8: on your Facebook post and I try not to be negative.

1150
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:17,080
Speaker 16: But I did comments about the dais Olvou, you know,

1151
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:23,520
Speaker 16: but uh, it's they had a winning record last year

1152
01:02:23,560 --> 01:02:25,360
Speaker 16: and I think they're going to build on it this year.

1153
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:27,560
Speaker 16: And like everybody said, it's only one game, and I

1154
01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:28,600
Speaker 16: did say that.

1155
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:32,840
Speaker 4: But it's just the pattern repeating itself. You know.

1156
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:34,200
Speaker 12: I think it's getting to the people.

1157
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:35,840
Speaker 8: I think it's getting to the fans, I really do,

1158
01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:36,560
Speaker 8: you know.

1159
01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:36,919
Speaker 4: What I mean.

1160
01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:38,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think.

1161
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:42,360
Speaker 8: That team, you know what I mean, And you're showing

1162
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:45,320
Speaker 8: you want you want to do so good. And I

1163
01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:47,040
Speaker 8: mean I've been a Reds fan since I was a

1164
01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:51,240
Speaker 8: kid in nineteen fifty six, and I've never given up

1165
01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:55,880
Speaker 8: on him. And I've seen some bad teams, you know, yeah,

1166
01:02:56,000 --> 01:03:01,080
Speaker 8: but as far as a Hay Suarez, yeah, he wants

1167
01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:03,600
Speaker 8: to be, he wants to be.

1168
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:05,600
Speaker 12: I think he was trying too hard.

1169
01:03:05,640 --> 01:03:07,880
Speaker 8: He was just want to do so good for the fans,

1170
01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,920
Speaker 8: and the fans loved him. And as nice as he's there,

1171
01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 8: I mean, and you can't expect too much from him,

1172
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,840
Speaker 8: like you were saying. But and as far and I

1173
01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:19,240
Speaker 8: agree with that one of your callers about these guys,

1174
01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:22,440
Speaker 8: and you said five and the you know, we go

1175
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:28,160
Speaker 8: back to my theory is as kids, we played little league,

1176
01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 8: and then after a little league, we went out and

1177
01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:33,160
Speaker 8: played pickup games, and then we were then playing pickup

1178
01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:35,240
Speaker 8: games the next day. Maybe we're throwing Rosy's there.

1179
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:39,120
Speaker 2: You know, we threw all the time, you know, And

1180
01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:39,960
Speaker 2: I think.

1181
01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:41,920
Speaker 8: That's part of it, you know what I mean. And

1182
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:45,080
Speaker 8: now it's travel team, travel team, travel team. But like

1183
01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 8: in the past, you know, Samuie Ellis's arms burned out,

1184
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:51,640
Speaker 8: Ken Hunt, I don't know if you remember him. Ye uh,

1185
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:54,320
Speaker 8: he's nine and one, finished nine and ten. His arms

1186
01:03:54,320 --> 01:03:56,480
Speaker 8: burned out, So it's not you know, so I do it.

1187
01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:58,600
Speaker 8: And they got a lot of money invested in these guys.

1188
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:04,200
Speaker 8: And I understand that Dag going on miss complete games.

1189
01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:07,680
Speaker 2: Hey Bill, I enjoyed this. Let's talk during the season.

1214
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:16,800
Speaker 17: got a good outing from starting pitcher Andrew Rabbit, but

1215
01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:18,840
Speaker 17: a lack of offense resulted in a three to nothing

1216

1219
01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 17: the board, scoreless in the sixth inning, the best chances,

1220
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:31,920
Speaker 17: they loaded the bases with one out, but then let

1221
01:05:31,920 --> 01:05:34,880
Speaker 17: them stranded with two straight strikeouts and all the Reds

1222
01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:37,160
Speaker 17: leaving eight on bass, including salth Stewart in the eighth

1223
01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:40,000

1224
01:05:40,040 --> 01:05:42,320

Speaker 17: the afternoon, a county for three of the four hits

1227
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:50,240
