1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: There's no question we've got the best in the boot.

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:08,880
Speaker 1: That's why we all mimic his call. Time for Murfin Marcus.

Speaker 4: Baby.

11
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 3: He looks a great down in San Diego. It's great

12
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 3: to have him on the scene at Petco Park calling

13
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 3: the games with Mike back in San Francisco. Always great

14
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 3: to hear those two working together. And he got to

15
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 3: call Tony Vitelo's first major league baseball win. Welcome to

16
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 3: the show, Tony v and the Giants first win of

17
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 3: the season. So Kype all good, all around, welcome back.

18
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 2: How are you a morning pipe? Yeah? Not just a win,

19
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 2: the win. The win that hard. That first of anything

20
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:08,479
Speaker 2: during the baseball season can sometimes be the hardest, whether

21
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 2: it's a hit, whether it's a save, whether it's a win,

22
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: whether it's a home run. And for Tony Vaytello. I mean, look,

23
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 2: he's three games into the season and he's thinking that.

24
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 2: You know, if we go oh, in one hundred and

25
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 2: sixty two, then we got a problem. But I think

26
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 2: everybody regrouped a little bit on the day off on Sunday.

27
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 2: Giants got into San Diego Saturday night, so they had

28
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 2: all day Sunday. I mean, we're literally attached to the

29
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 2: ballparks so players can go over. And Padres didn't play either,

30
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 2: so they had the whole stadium to themselves. I have

31
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 2: no idea what they did, but whatever they did, they

32
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 2: sure looked loose and relaxed when they took the field,

33
00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: and that always helps. Look, you get you get your

34
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 2: first home run, and you get two two out base

35
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 2: hits to knock in the second and third run in

36
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 2: those two hits games from two guys that were aero

37
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 2: for nine. Yeah, so you walk away with a win

38
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: and you realize that, you know, that Yankee series was

39
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: a series where they couldn't get that hit. They come

40
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 2: in here, they get that hit, and everybody goes home happy.

41
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, they've lost nine straight to the Yankees and San Francisco.

42
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna go ahead and call that a bad matchup,

43
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 3: get them out and get another team in here the

44
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 3: padres so Kype, I want to jump to the end.

45
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 3: I know, I want to get to Rupe and Walker

46
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 3: and Schmidt and all those guys, Bailey Bader, But get

47
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,959
Speaker 3: to the end. Did you get a chance after you

48
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 3: left the booth to see Tony V or anybody from

49
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 3: the party after the game. I'd love to hear any

50
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 3: postgame anecdotes or color you have.

51
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, look, I know that they did their

52
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 2: traditional thing. They threw them in a laundry car art

53
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 2: and you know, did all the stuff that you do

54
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: if you're in a fraternity. But they've been doing that,

55
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 2: you know, for years with a guy that gets his

56
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 2: first win or guy that hits his first home run.

57
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,799
Speaker 2: So that that all happened while we were still doing

58
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 2: the postgame rap. On our way out, David and I

59
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 2: stopped into the clubhouse when he went to his office,

60
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 2: and uh, and he had just really gotten finished with

61
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 2: h talking to the media, and you know, his hair

62
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 2: was wet because he had all this stuff in it.

63
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 2: He didn't have any shoes on, so he was kind

64
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 2: of walking around like he just come from the beach

65
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: and he was really happy, super super happy, and and

66
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 2: you could tell that this took a little weight off

67
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 2: his shoulders. And I told him, I said, I asked him,

68
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 2: I said, what's your what's your drink of choice? And

69
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 2: he said, well, he said then I said no, I said, seriously,

70
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 2: I said, I got nothing to do today. I'm going

71
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 2: to go to one of the good liquor stories here

72
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 2: and I'll buy you something that you like. And he said, well,

73
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 2: I'm kind of a whiskey guy. I said, right, Well,

74
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 2: that's all I need to know. So that's my job.

75
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 2: Today is a little bit of a celebration for him.

76
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 2: And he was a happy dude, let me tell you.

77
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 2: But I mean nothing real earth shattering or exciting. But

78
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 2: Dave and I really felt like we needed to go

79
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 2: in there and shake his hand.

80
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can find him some good Tennessee whiskey to

81
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 4: celebrate his first win in the big leagues.

82
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: But Kaipi actually wanted to go back.

83
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 4: A couple of days after one of the losses against

84
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 4: the Yankees, he said, there was a lot of emotion

85
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 4: and a lot of try hard in the clubhouse, So

86
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 4: maybe was there not just additional pressure on Tony Vitello

87
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 4: to get his first wing.

88
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: Do you feel like maybe there was.

89
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 4: Additional pressure on the team to get Tony Vitello his

90
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 4: first win, and maybe there's pressure being relieved not just

91
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 4: from the manager but now the entire ball club moving forward.

92
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I mean, I think you're right on all accounts.

93
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 2: I mean, look, that win can be so hard to get,

94
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 2: and then when you get it, you realize that the

95
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:15,239
Speaker 2: wind really affected everybody, from the players to the starting

96
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 2: pitcher to the guy who got to save, to the

97
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 2: You know, our fans are fans that are here, are

98
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 2: fans that are listening, fans that are watching, and then

99
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: of course when wherever Tony Vitello goes, it's all about

100
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 2: the fact that he he's never been in pro ball

101
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 2: and he doesn't have a win, you know, so you

102
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 2: got to you got to clean that up right away

103
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 2: if you can. And unfortunately they couldn't do it at home.

104
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 2: But for the longest time this was their second home.

105
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,799
Speaker 2: Not so much now. I mean we had another crowd

106
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 2: of over forty thousand. I mean, they're drawing big time here.

107
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 2: But but it's a long winded answer to yeah, you're

108
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 2: right on all accounts. It was big for everybody.

109
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 3: Let's talk about the closer, because that's what all the

110
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,559
Speaker 3: Texters want to talk about today. You know, Ryan Walker

111
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 3: went into this year not with a one hundred percent certainty.

112
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 3: We were saying Giants fans going into the season, We're like, oh, man,

113
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:17,119
Speaker 3: I don't know about the closer.

114
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,039
Speaker 1: I don't know about the closer.

115
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 3: And the Giants didn't necessarily say one thousand percent that

116
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 3: he was. I think Tony V had been on record

117
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 3: saying is he will use the guy he thinks he's right.

118
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: He said, I know Miller can do it. I know

119
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: Walker can do it.

120
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 3: So he went with Ryan Walker last night and there

121
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 3: was two stories to it, okay. The one was he

122
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 3: got it done, they won the game. The other was

123
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 3: he walked the leadoff hitter and gave up a home run.

124
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 3: He almost hit a guy too, and quite frankly, got

125
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,159
Speaker 3: a little break when Fernando Tetsis didn't challenge what should

126
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,919
Speaker 3: have been ball three. So your reaction, I guess my

127
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 3: question to you is do you feel like the closer.

128
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: Role is still a little.

129
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 3: Bit situational or do you think they want to make

130
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 3: Ryan Walker that guy?

131
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: And if so, what did you think of last night.

132
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 2: Well he'll close tonight. I mean I think, uh, you know, look,

133
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 2: if you go back in at ninetheenning, yeah, you shouldn't

134
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 2: walk the leadoff guy, but then you can't walk another guy.

135
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 2: So he has to really throw a fat pitch to

136
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 2: Jackson Merrill, and if he hits it out, he hits

137
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 2: it out, you still got the lead. You can't walk him.

138
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 2: So look, yeah, I mean in a lot of ways,

139
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 2: I'm not that surprised that that Meryl hit a home run.

140
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 2: He was gonna get something fat to hit, so you know,

141
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 2: he did what he needed to do. And you always

142
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: hope that that pitch the guy is gonna pop it up.

143
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 2: Instead he knocks it out of the park. And now

144
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 2: now you got you know, you got another guy coming

145
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 2: up in Bogarts who can tie it up with one swing.

146
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 2: So look, the closer rope may be a work in

147
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 2: progress all year. I mean, if you got a couple

148
00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 2: other guys down there that that, look, they get a

149
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 2: shot to do it, and Walker's failing a little bit. Yeah,

150
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 2: I mean, the job's open. But I mean, look, if

151
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 2: you've got Dennis Eckers league, you know, you got Trevor Hoffman,

152
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 2: you know, you don't worry about that spot in the

153
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 2: ninth Indian, But Darren's that many guys around like that,

154
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 2: so that spot is always going to be open, and

155
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 2: it's always open on a lot of different teams, not

156
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 2: just this one.

157
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 4: Ryan Walker closed out the game last night, but it

158
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,719
Speaker 4: was Landing Roupe who was back on the bump at

159
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 4: the big, theigue level for the first time that we've

160
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 4: seen him, Kype, since last August when his season ended,

161
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 4: taking that line drive off his knee.

162
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,960
Speaker 1: And I got to say, maybe that was.

163
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 4: One of the best outings we've seen from Landing Roope,

164
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 4: just when it comes to mixing up his pitches, the

165
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 4: usage of his change up, the usage of adding a cutter.

166
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 4: Now as well, Kype, what was your breakdown of seeing

167
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 4: Landon Roope back out there for the first time in

168
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 4: quite a while.

169
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 2: Well, first of all, do you know where he threw

170
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 2: his last pitch last year? Yeah? Right there, right here

171
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 2: on that mound. Yeah, so you know he's going out

172
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 2: there thinking, you know, this is not the greatest place

173
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 2: in the world for me. Now, look, he may not

174
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 2: have been thinking that at all. He may have been

175
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 2: thinking about what he needed to do, and he was

176
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 2: great you know, we see him throw I mean, he

177
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 2: loves to throw that big curveball and and I think

178
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 2: the league, you know, starts to sit on that. And

179
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 2: he didn't throw it that much. He threw a lot

180
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 2: of changeups and cutters and and then of course each strikes.

181
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 2: Of the five starters the Giants have, he's the one

182
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 2: guy that's got some Madison Bumgarner in him and they

183
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 2: need that. And if he had three or four more

184
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 2: years under his belt, you would see more of Madison

185
00:09:55,679 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 2: Bumgarner in him. And it's going to happen, and that's

186
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 2: a good thing. So good for him. I mean, he

187
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 2: threw his tail off last night and it was great

188
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 2: because you could see that he's definitely bounced back from

189
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 2: the injury that he had last year. I mean, this

190
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 2: guy's a limit. For this guy not just stay healthy,

191
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 2: and that's what the staff is going to have to

192
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 2: do to make sure that he does stay healthy.

193
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 3: It was a huge outing in so many ways, you know,

194
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 3: for him to bounce back from the injury, for the

195
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 3: Giants getting off the schneide, for him to do it

196
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 3: to a division rival on the road, I mean, it

197
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 3: was just an awesome performance by him. But man, everybody

198
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 3: breathed easier on the offensive side when Harrison Bader left

199
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 3: the yard. Guype, and did you have Harrison Bader in

200
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 3: your pool as the first Giant to Homer.

201
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 2: No, I endeavors. Yeah, you know, And look, that's that's

202
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 2: probably an easy choice. But when you get into one

203
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 2: of those pools, it's probably not going to be the

204
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 2: guys you think, you know, it's it's going to be

205
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 2: Schmid or John hoo Lee or Vader or Patrick Bailey

206
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 2: right towards the bottom of the order. But I don't

207
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 2: know if you had a chance to stand next to

208
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 2: Harrison Vader.

209
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, we did in Scottsdale.

210
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 2: He's sick.

211
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,559
Speaker 1: He's got one of the more unique builds in Giants history.

212
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 2: Really, he is sick for a guy that moves like

213
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 2: a dancer in center field. Uh so, it's going to

214
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: be fun to watch him all year. Another guy that

215
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,640
Speaker 2: you got to keep on the field if you can't.

216
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 2: He's got a little bit of an edge, you know.

217
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 2: And I told you guys when the Giants signed him

218
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 2: that when he first came up with the Cardinals, I

219
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 2: hated him. I mean he did all this stuff at

220
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 2: second when he got a double and yeah, no, no,

221
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 2: and I thought, you know this guy, you can have him. Well,

222
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,560
Speaker 2: I'm glad. I'm glad they got him now because he

223
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 2: needs a little it is. You know, sometimes a couple

224
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 2: of edge, you guys, is not a bad thing. And

225
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 2: although he hasn't shown any of that, but you know, look,

226
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 2: they've only played four games, so he's got plenty of

227
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 2: opportunity to tick off the other team.

228
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 4: Okay, four games into the season, we've already seen Tony

229
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 4: Votello shake up the lineup a few times. Luisa Rises

230
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 4: bounced around from the leadoff spot to the three hold

231
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 4: to hitting clean up yesterday. Willie Domas was in the

232
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 4: lineup hitting lead off yesterday. Has there been anything that

233
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 4: has really stood out to you or maybe guys you

234
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 4: like in certain spots the first four games of the season.

235
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 2: I don't know. You guys can look back at this

236
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 2: and I may be wrong, but I don't think any

237
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,680
Speaker 2: of the four extra guys have gotten it bad.

238
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: You are correct sir.

239
00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 2: I mean I know that we've had a pinch runner

240
00:12:54,920 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 2: in Oli and that's it. So I mean, look, you're

241
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 2: gonna play nine, all right. If you're gonna play nine,

242
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 2: then the only way that you can mess around with

243
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 2: the lineup is to move guys in different spots and

244
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 2: and basically that's that's all we did. And you know

245
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 2: it could be important. I mean, so he puts a

246
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 2: Damis in the leadoff spot. You know, Now you got

247
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 2: to come up with a reason why. And in a

248
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,960
Speaker 2: lot of times, the reason why is because we want

249
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 2: to change things. And uh, and you know, look, they

250
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: got to win. Now did the lineup have anything to

251
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 2: do with it? You know, who knows. But you gotta

252
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: figure that Susak is going to get a start within

253
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 2: one of the next two games. Uh. You know, you

254
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 2: just don't want to wear out Bailey, you know in March. Uh.

255
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 2: And you know, and he's not a guy that's gonna

256
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: wear out. I mean, he could play for a while,

257
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 2: but you can't let these guys on the bench sit

258
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 2: because otherwise they go superstill. I mean, you're gonna go

259
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 2: stale when you don't play, but then you're gonna go

260
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 2: super stale. So I think you're probably gonna see some

261
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 2: changes in the next couple of days only to get

262
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,200
Speaker 2: those guys I feel like they're part of the team

263
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 2: and it's really important you do that.

264
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Dan Susak.

265
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 3: They have a day game Wednesday, maybe he'd do the

266
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 3: day game after the night game. Jared Olivia did pinch

267
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 3: run Gerar and Kanassio and we haven't seen him. Christian

268
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 3: cost we haven't seen Marcus had a great line because

269
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 3: we said it's interesting Gerar, I guess there's one of

270
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 3: the guys who spoke to the clubhouse after the game.

271
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 3: Marcus said he has more postgame speeches than at bats

272
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 3: this year, So it's kind of funny.

273
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 2: Well, do you need a spokesman and you need one

274
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 2: in English?

275
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: And there you go, there you go.

276
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 2: And you know what, you need one in Kouran too.

277
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 1: Yes, that's right, we do. I know young Tony's got his.

278
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 3: A great question for you coming up, But just last

279
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 3: one is Keaton winning the eighth inning?

280
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 1: Always like a good eighth inning.

281
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 3: Guy, going back to my nineteen ninety three Mike Jackson,

282
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 3: I was like a good eighth inning guy, you know,

283
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 3: and I know it's.

284
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: Only one inning, but he you know he might be hired.

285
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 2: Was Mike Jackson good?

286
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 1: Or what give me Mike jack with a lipper right now?

287
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: Right now? Take him tonight?

288
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,040
Speaker 2: Nasty by Jackson? Incredible, Uh, and you know what, Keaton

289
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 2: win was nasty last night too, and you know, look,

290
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 2: I know it was the bottom of the order. That's

291
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 2: fine big league hitters, and uh and he man, he

292
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 2: disposed those three guys bang bang bang. Uh. So again

293
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 2: keep him on the field and uh and if that's

294
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 2: his inning, then you know, run him out there and

295
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 2: until you know he you know, he doesn't feel comfortable

296
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 2: doing it anymore. And he may be a guy that

297
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 2: could be in that eightning, you know, forever. He's got

298
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 2: that good of stuff. So you know, he almost forgot

299
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 2: about Keaton wins. And then he shows up healthy and spinting,

300
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 2: and you realize that you really had something with him

301
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 2: when he was healthy and uh and we saw it

302
00:15:58,560 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 2: last night for sure.

303
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 1: And we'll see again tonight. All right, is that time

304
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 1: for Young Tony?

305
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 3: On Wednesdays at seven fifteen, he asks us the questions

306
00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 3: of the week. But when Kype comes on, he's got

307
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 3: one final question. What did young Tony ask Kype?

308
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 1: Today? Let's do it all right, Kype?

309
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 4: Tony ve got his first win as a big league

310
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 4: manager last night. For you, as a player, do you

311
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 4: have any good stories about your first memorable win?

312
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 2: Well? You know. Unfortunately, I wish I would have been

313
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 2: in Cleveland in nineteen seventy five for their opener because

314
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 2: that was Frank Robinson's first day. Is a is a

315
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 2: black manager in Cleveland and he hits a home run

316
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 2: because he was a player manager, I missed it, you know,

317
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 2: I was in triple A. My first memory, and I

318
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 2: think I've told this story before, is being introduced on

319
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 2: opening day as you run out to the foul lines

320
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 2: to stand and you know, you look good. I mean

321
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 2: you you make sure that that full length mirror is

322
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 2: in full use before you run out onto the onto

323
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 2: the first baseline, and I did. I mean I had

324
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 2: everything lined up tight, you know, hair, looking good, and

325
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 2: uh so, you know, they introduced you. I got introduced first,

326
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 2: I was leading off, and then Rick Manning got introduced,

327
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,919
Speaker 2: and then Buddy Bell and you know, on and on

328
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 2: and on. So now they introduced the extra players and

329
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 2: we got we got seventy thousand people. So now they

330
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:39,879
Speaker 2: introduced Dennis Acres League, and you talk about looking real good.

331
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 2: Eck was looking real good. You know, he had the

332
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 2: long hair and oh my god, and he was he

333
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 2: was nineteen maybe twenty, and he takes one step out

334
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:54,280
Speaker 2: of the dug out and he falls on his face.

335
00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 2: Come on, eck, come on and all of us. You know, look,

336
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 2: it's opening day. You're kind of tight. We weren't tight

337
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 2: after that. It was almost like you did it on

338
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:09,640
Speaker 2: purpose to get everybody to relax. But anyway, he got up,

339
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 2: he took a bow, and he ran out on the

340
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 2: line with everybody else. Now I probably should have a

341
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 2: more memorable moment than that, but that was good.

342
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 1: That's pretty good.

343
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 2: Also, by the way, on opening Day in nineteen eighty,

344
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 2: I charged the mound.

345
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,360
Speaker 1: Whoa who was the picture? Was it Steve Busby?

346
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 2: Taylor Moore?

347
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Taylor.

348
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:37,479
Speaker 2: He was the left. He was hard to see, and

349
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,199
Speaker 2: he came up and in and I went down in

350
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,440
Speaker 2: a heap, and you know, I lay it on the ground.

351
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,360
Speaker 2: I put my palms out, like what are you doing? Yeah,

352
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 2: and look I'm not I'm not a fighter, you know,

353
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 2: And I'd rather give somebody a hug and a kiss.

354
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 2: And in front of eighty thousand he does the two

355
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 2: hands where they he's saying, well, if you got something

356
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 2: to say, come out of here and say it. Okay,

357
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,639
Speaker 2: oh he does it from all those people. Man got

358
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 2: no toyst cut now, I got I gotta go, so

359
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 2: I ran, uh Buck Martinez pulled me down, and then

360
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 2: it was that was it. We've ever done it. I

361
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 2: knew then I probably would never do it again.
