1 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: All right, postgame rap time after this Saturday night series finale, 2 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:11,319 Speaker 1: which is weird in its own way. The Giants are 3 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 1: traveling after this game, going down to San Diego off 4 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: day tomorrow game Monday night, and it is getaway night, 5 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: so we'll let DC pack up. We'll have a quick 6 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: postgame rap here Mike is dis pointing away for the 7 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: Giants to start all the anticipation of the season. This 8 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: was a much different feeling game than the first two, 9 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,319 Speaker 1: and the Giants got a run on the board, had 10 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: chances for lots more, but ultimately they're not going to 11 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: be real thrilled with the way the season started. 12 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 2: Well, no, you're never thrilled about getting swept, but the 13 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 2: at bats today were totally different. You know, Hey, the 14 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 2: fans got something to you're about today. First RBI, first 15 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 2: run scored, and there was a lot of other opportunity 16 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 2: that they couldn't cash in on, but they created the 17 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:59,279 Speaker 2: opportunity and that's a start. So one thing you cannot do. 18 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: You cannot dwell, and you cannot feel sorry for sself. 19 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 2: You've got work to do because the Potters are going 20 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 2: to try and it hurts you because they're scuffling in 21 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: their series in their opening series down at San Diego 22 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 2: as well. So you just that and from by Tello's 23 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 2: perspective and the coaching staff, you build on what they 24 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 2: did well and emphasize the positives. And there are a 25 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 2: lot of good things that did happen today. 26 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, some really competitive at bats and much better defense. 27 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 1: I thought today Giants made some spirited defensive plays. You 28 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,559 Speaker 1: made a point late in this game today that one 29 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: big picture takeaway from the whole series the Giants bullpen, 30 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 1: which is really sort of uncertain in terms of roles 31 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 1: and who's going to be and almost everybody this weekend 32 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: pitched well out of that Giants. 33 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,479 Speaker 2: Huge positive, huge positive. I remember the look we were 34 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 2: getting feedback even from uh, you know, the scouts that 35 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 2: who watched this Giants team all spring long, that you know, 36 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: we don't really know what this bullpit is capable of. 37 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 2: And boy have they gotten off to a great start. 38 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. 39 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 3: Well, and that's exact to see because the bullpen. Had 40 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 3: they been able to mount a come back these last 41 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 3: couple of days, it would have been because of the 42 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 3: bullpen keeping them in the game against one of the 43 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 3: most high powered offensive groups in either league, the Yankees 44 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 3: so anyway for the Giants, ultimately just more frustration. And 45 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 3: with this automatic balls and strikes system. Now I thought 46 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 3: there were eight, but apparently on the in the box 47 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 3: where it's just seven, and every one of the challenges 48 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 3: ended up in a call being overturned. 49 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 2: It felt like eight though. 50 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 3: If you were Chad Whitson and probably felt like eighty eight. 51 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 3: It was and every time they challenged him, it got overturned. 52 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: The only and I really do look Whitson I think 53 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: got a little embarrassed today because all these calls that 54 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 2: he made were overturned. And I think that the end 55 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 2: result of this is that umpires are going to get 56 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 2: tighter because they don't want to be in the box 57 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 2: score having eight overturned calls credited to their name. They 58 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 2: want to get it right now. The good news is 59 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 2: that you know they're getting it right now, which is 60 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 2: the whole point of having the ABS. But I do 61 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 2: think that it's gonna make for a tighter strike zone. 62 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 2: It's going to make for more offense, and I think 63 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 2: you're gonna see more three hundreds this year, which has 64 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 2: kind of been twindling good. 65 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 3: I hope you're right. That's I think that would be 66 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 3: a great way for this to turn out. 67 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: It was definitely part of the story of this week 68 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: to watch the system unfold for the first time in 69 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: real games, obviously very different than what we saw in 70 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: the Cactus League. All right, let's take a break. We'll 71 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: pick players right after this. Okay, postgame rap part two. 72 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: Let's pick players. John, you get to go first. All right, Well, 73 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: I'm going with Elliott Ramos. I think it's an obvious 74 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: choice because in a game where the Giants were trying 75 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: to have a grittier at back, and I think he 76 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: led the way. 77 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 3: He had a ten pitch battle in the first inning 78 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: and he ended up swinging at the pitch that he 79 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 3: was probably kicking himself for afterward. But up till then, man, 80 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 3: he was. He was fouling off tough pitches and making 81 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 3: the guy work. Then he went up his next time 82 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 3: with a runner on base. They had scored a run, 83 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,280 Speaker 3: and and he had a nine pitch at bat, and 84 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 3: he had a possible bass hit taken away a nice 85 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 3: play by Jazz Chisholm, ranging far to his left and 86 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 3: angling out to make a dive for a ball, and 87 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 3: he got a bass hit. The next time he was 88 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 3: up there and a walk after he got a call 89 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 3: overturned in another gritty plate appearance. So I four great 90 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 3: plate appearances and man, if that's who Elliott Romos is 91 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 3: going to be this year, we might be seeing another 92 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 3: All Star apparents for him. It was a great day 93 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 3: I think for him, although in the box show maybe 94 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 3: doesn't look that spectacular, but a lot of good things 95 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 3: going to happen with a string of it back. 96 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 2: It's like that for Romos. I think that's a great pick. 97 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 2: Was he was fantastic and you know that's the thing 98 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 2: I think that will enable him to have a really 99 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 2: good year, just that consistent grind and and those are 100 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 2: things you learned as you as you get older in 101 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 2: this game, and you know, he's matured into a good 102 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 2: pro and this is going to make him a guy 103 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: who's going to get back to another All Star game. 104 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 3: So I'm excited by the day that he had and 105 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 3: he threw out a guy that played a huge play MVP. 106 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 2: Come on, he could be the player of the game. 107 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 3: I don't want to overextend my my I'm going for 108 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 3: his offensive contributions, all right, I'm. 109 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: Going with Jung Hou Lee. Jung Hou Lee scored the 110 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: first run of the year, he had a double, he 111 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: had a walk, maybe just as the leadoff hitter in 112 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: that spot, you know, as a spark for the Giants 113 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: when we could see that on Monday in San Diego. 114 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: And he looks really comfortable in right field too, he does. 115 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 2: He looks really good out there. I'm going Jung hou Lee. Okay, well, 116 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 2: then I'm to take the entire bullpen. I think that 117 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 2: they really had a good series. And this is a 118 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: Yankees team that comes in with big time offensive reputation, 119 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: and I think up and down the bullpen, everybody who 120 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 2: came out there dealt and that is a solid That's 121 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 2: how this team's going to grow the bullpen. 122 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 3: All right, Yeah, great, great performance, exciting us in because 123 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 3: that was considered a question mark coming in. 124 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,600 Speaker 1: So so far, so good. The bullpens look good. They 125 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: really have a good pick. Mike, all right, what's on deck? 126 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: Sponsored by your California four dealers. Well, it's gonna be weird. Tomorrow, Sunday, 127 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: off day after an off day, after the opener, just 128 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: a strange schedule to start the year for obvious reasons. 129 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: And then Monday at Petco Giants Padres first road game 130 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: of the Year. 131 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: Well, and you know, they come in zero to three, 132 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 2: so they've got to pop that bubble and they've got 133 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 2: to get in the win column. So I mean, that's 134 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 2: the thing about starting off and you know, having a 135 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 2: bit of a losing street going because every time you 136 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 2: lose and you don't get that first one, it makes 137 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 2: it that much tougher to get it the next day. 138 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: So there's a lot riding on Monday. 139 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 3: Big One. 140 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 1: What's on Deck sponsored by We'll be there.
