4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: grab a mugg and te proudly. Second baseman a Rice

5
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: almost up the middle of this white headed it or

6
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 1: there goes Totties.

7
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,280
Speaker 2: Now he stops and a soft ground ball towards short

8
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: cutting over from third Chapman job Pevin had a high

9
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 2: throwing again, Schmidt held his ground and did not come

10
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 2: up with the ball and it hit off the glove

11
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,560
Speaker 2: and went over to the sidewall and that crossed the

12
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 2: Giants another run.

13
00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 3: Well, we watched the replay multiple times because it looked

14
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 3: like on the first one the base runner kind of

15
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 3: took a swipe at it. I mean, I think it

16
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 3: was almost more playful than it was malicious, and it

17
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 3: ended up I don't think it interfered. It gets kind

18
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 3: of tight on the camera angle, but it just looks

19
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 3: like it was a difficult play for Chappie and had

20
00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 3: an opportunity to catch the ball, but the base runners

21
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 3: around ha been close at the same time, and then

22
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,040
Speaker 3: we need to in the future. I mean, Jungie's always hustling,

23
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,320
Speaker 3: but being a backup position a little bit better would

24
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 3: be ideally ideal there. And then the second one was

25
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 3: just a misplay. You know, obviously everything Chappy throws has

26
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 3: good carry, but that one was, you know, the first

27
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 3: one's got about six or seven different storylines to it,

28
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 3: if you want to stretch it. But the second one

29
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 3: was just a misplay.

30
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, good stuff from Tony V breaking down a

31
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 4: play that got a lot of.

32
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 5: Attention for a team that won the first two games.

33
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 4: A lot of attention on the misplay of Chapman to

34
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 4: Schmidt and what it kind of shined a light on

35
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 4: of you know, why is Casey Schmid playing first? And

36
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 4: how's Tony V gonna handle this? And how did Matt

37
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 4: Chapman drop the F bomb on Matt Chapman. No, by

38
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 4: the way, we're paying tribute to our Artemis heroes. We're

39
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 4: circling the moon to bring us the Last Frontier, the

40
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 4: Final Frontier, the Dark Side of the Moon. We've already

41
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 4: played some Pink Floyd and some Californication at the Hollywood

42
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 4: sound stage and some David Bowie.

43
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 5: Now this is how we did in the eighties.

44
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 6: Guys.

45
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 5: You guys like you guys like the eighties. Guys like

46
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 5: the eighties.

47
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 6: Anybody I would have liked to be alive during the eighties.

48
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 5: No cell phones.

49
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 6: Oh I've heard some good things about the eighties.

50
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 5: Do whatever the heck you wanted. But oh yeah, and nobody,

51
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 5: nobody was. Nobody was rolling tape.

52
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 4: And then when you went, when you went to go

53
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 4: play quarters, that's right, quarters.

54
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 7: You guys play quarters. Quarters kind of died off. It's

55
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 7: not as popular as it used to be. But I've

56
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 7: played myself before yet In.

57
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 4: The game Curly, you pour a beer into a glass

58
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 4: and you sat opposite somebody at a table and you

59
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 4: bounced the quarter off the table into the glass, and

60
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 4: if it lands in the glass.

61
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:36,639
Speaker 5: The other person has to chug it.

62
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 4: Maybe if you could pick the least favorite game of

63
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 4: my life, because you know my thing.

64
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 5: With coins, You hate coin, hate them.

65
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 4: So I was like, I'm not drinking that there's a

66
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 4: coin in it. So anyway, that's what we did. Well,

67
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 4: this was playing, This was playing on the high school

68
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 4: party louds me and you were telling me that this

69
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 4: is a song written about.

70
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 7: A character from one of David Bowie's Crazy Right, So space.

71
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 4: Odities so famous my name is. This is Major Tom

72
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 4: to Ground Control. And then so this guy Peter.

73
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 5: Shilling is his only hit. I think I wrote a

74
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 5: song about Major Tom. I think it's kind of wild.

75
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 4: He's like, yeah, that guy and Bowie song is pretty

76
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 4: Cool'm gonna write a song about him. It's kind of wild.

77
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 5: Wow.

78
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 7: A lot of a lot of songs about this moon

79
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 7: landing conspiracy.

80
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 4: Do you guys see the what was it the George

81
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 4: Clooney and Sandra Bullock?

82
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 5: What was that called gravity? Shout out giants, Yeah, shout

83
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 5: the giants.

84
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 6: Looking for that?

85
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 5: That was a good movie.

86
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 7: Yeah.

87
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 5: I think in the end, doesn't Clooney he kinda drifts off,

88
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 5: doesn't he? You gotta drift off?

89
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 6: Not a bad way to go out, Well, I.

90
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 4: Think it'd be an absolutely terrifying way to go Just

91
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 4: close your eyes and drift away.

92
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, no problems, no nothing, you're right, Yeah, bills depend

93
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 7: on dude.

94
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 6: But how long do you drift until you drivel?

95
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 5: And what point does the panic said? And you're inside

96
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 5: this soon and you're just drifting.

97
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 4: It's like, uh, where's my baseball game?

98
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 5: Where's my pizza?

99
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 7: At that point, just finish off your gummies and enjoy

100
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 7: the ride. Not okay, you're good, don't drift it. That's

101
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 7: how I want to go out, just to ship me

102
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 7: off the space.

103
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 4: I mean, so in that you see the movie, I

104
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 4: think comes back down and then she kind of does

105
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 4: that early man crawl out onto the land. But anyway,

106
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 4: we digress. Of course, that's what Morning Radio does. Tony's

107
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 4: gonna joice the seven thirty and listen as somebody tweeted

108
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 4: in eight three win says, you know, they did take

109
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 4: two out of three from the Padres in San Diego,

110
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 4: so let's not kind of curb our negativity here. Did

111
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 4: you know that last year against the Padres they won

112
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 4: three games all year?

113
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 6: Bro, he struggled against the Pods last year, three.

114
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 5: Games all year.

115
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 4: We're two thirds of the way there, Okay, so we

116
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 4: should probably take heart in that.

117
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 7: Oh yes, you should celebrate the fact that the Giants

118
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 7: got their first series win of the year. It's always

119
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 7: funny the way we look at these series. If they

120
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 7: win the last two out of three, everybody's happy and celebrate.

121
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 7: You're like, yeah, you got out of town. You won

122
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 7: the series on the last day. But they took the

123
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 7: first two. San Diego was a little desperate they had

124
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 7: their ace on the mound. Nick Paveta, who bounced back

125
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 7: from a bad first start against the Detroit Tigers on

126
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 7: opening days, so he shoved yesterday. Adrian Hauser looked pretty

127
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,680
Speaker 7: damn good, but the defense was the issue.

128
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 8: Murph.

129
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 6: You can't win games if you can't play catch.

130
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 4: And the catch is is that Adrian no pun intended.

131
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 4: Adrian Hauser came here to be a groundball guy. Oh wait,

132
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 4: ground ball guy. We like groundball guys. We have the

133
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 4: best third basement in the business. And ironically he got

134
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 4: ground balls to Chapman, and ironically it led to the

135
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 4: two unearned runs. Now, the problem in general are most

136
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 4: people looking at the problems say, that's not necessarily Chapman.

137
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 5: That's the guy at first base, and that leads us

138
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 5: to what's.

139
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 4: Going on at first base. Casey Schmid has played first

140
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 4: base every game this year. Casey Schmidt, by anyone's estimation

141
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 4: include up to and including Casey Schmidt, is not a

142
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 4: first basement So why.

143
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 5: Is he out there?

144
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 4: Well, Rafael Devers is your first baseman. Well, why isn't

145
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 4: he out there? Well he has a hamstring strain. Okay,

146
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 4: why does he have a hamstring strain. Is he not

147
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 4: in great condition? I don't know, so maybe a topic

148
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 4: for the trainer. But wait a minute, he has a

149
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 4: hamstring strain. Didn't we just see him busting usain bolt

150
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 4: speed from home to first?

151
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 5: We did, and then going first to third? Yeah, we did?

152
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 5: So does I mean he's ready to play first base? Okay?

153
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 6: Stuff?

154
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 5: We can ask.

155
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 4: Tony v Also, people the low hanging fruit, or I

156
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 4: should say the high hanging fruit is a six foot

157
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 4: seven guy named Bryce Eldridge. We do have to caution

158
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 4: you on the Bryce Elders saying Eldridge would have caught those.

159
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 4: He is maybe less experienced at first base than Casey Schmidt.

160
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,400
Speaker 4: So I mean Casey Schmidt is a corner infielder, and

161
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 4: usually in historically in baseball, corner infielders can play first

162
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 4: base and third base, like Darryl Evans played third and first.

163
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 4: George Brett later in his career played first base instead

164
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 4: of third base.

165
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 7: I mean, that's what Devers is trying to do right now.

166
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 7: A guy like Vladimir Gurero Junior went from playing the

167
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 7: hot corner to becoming a goal glove first baseman, so

168
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,919
Speaker 7: it's possible we've seen that translation possible, but it's like

169
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 7: it's frequent.

170
00:06:59,160 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 6: Yeah.

171
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 7: I mean hell, even when I was playing third base

172
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 7: in high school. Days after I pitched sometimes if I

173
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 7: had a so warm, I'd hop over to first base

174
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 7: and dig out a couple of bulls.

175
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 4: And we get to the famous Ron Washington when they

176
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 4: tell Scott had Brad Pitt tells Scott Hadiberg, you're gonna

177
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 4: go play first and Scott Hadiburg says, I've never played

178
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,480
Speaker 4: first before, and Brad Pitt says, it's not that hard.

179
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 4: Tell him Wash, and the actor playing Ron Washington says,

180
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 4: it's incredibly hard.

181
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I'm sure that's how Wash was saying yesterday

182
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 6: in the dugout.

183
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 5: Apparently Washing Schmidt discussed I don't know how to.

184
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 7: Play first base.

185
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: Scott, that's right, it's not that hard, Scott, tell him Wash,

186
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: it's incredibly hard.

187
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 5: Total very nice, buddy, very nice.

188
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 4: So anyway, listen, and then of course the moment of

189
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 4: Matt Chapman on the mound catch the blanken ball FP Santangelo,

190
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 4: who was great to have in yesterday at the mid Days,

191
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 4: and it's going to be on this upcoming road ship

192
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 4: to Baltimore, et cetera. This should be really fun. I

193
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 4: like FP on the radio talking about the Giants. He said,

194
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 4: let's get t shirts catch the f and ball.

195
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 5: Catch the ball, just lean into it right lean.

196
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, you easily could, or you can just catch the

197
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 7: damn ball. We're not even talking about this.

198
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 4: I told you guys the story that my buddy, coach Jim,

199
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 4: was being talking to a Cub scout back in the

200
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 4: eighties and the Cub scout said to him, not the

201
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 4: cub scout like the boys who go camping.

202
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 5: The scout for the Chicago Cubs and son all, we're

203
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 5: looking for our young men who can play catch.

204
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 4: Now that's a very pre analytics scout obviously, but the

205
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 4: point of the matter is that's what is baseball.

206
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 6: We got to break catch a simplify it.

207
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 4: So you know, the Giants are supposed to be improving

208
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,679
Speaker 4: their defense and Matt Chapman is absolutely the gold standard

209
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 4: over there. So the problem lies at first base. So

210
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 4: we'll talk to Tony V about that.

211
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 5: Also.

212
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 7: One of the something yeah, I was just gonna say,

213
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 7: and there's question marks about first base as a whole,

214
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 7: even without Casey Schmidt being out there. Now, I was

215
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 7: actually impressed from what we've seen early on with Rafael

216
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 7: Devers over our first base, since he was traded from

217
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 7: the Boston Red Sox and showed up in San Francisco

218
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 7: without even a first base men, like he finally has

219
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 7: his me he's more comfortable.

220
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 5: Over our first base.

221
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 7: I would actually say I've been more impressed of what

222
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 7: Devers can do over at first base then even what

223
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 7: I've seen from Casey Schmidt. Like, Casey Schmidt's got a

224
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 7: great glove, but he's better at third, he's better at shortstop,

225
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 7: he's better at second than he is over at first base,

226
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 7: So there were gonna be question marks even if it

227
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 7: was Deverse and Eldridge over at first base. Then you

228
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 7: have Gerar, and that's kind of a question mark of

229
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 7: where he fits in this conversation. Also, they like Casey's

230
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 7: glove better at first That's why we haven't seen Jerar

231
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,679
Speaker 7: start a single game this year, has only been used

232
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 7: once as a pinch hitter.

233
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 5: He can also play outfield.

234
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 7: But I just named off four names right there for

235
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 7: the San Francisco Giants, where none of those guys are

236
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,319
Speaker 7: natural born first baseman. So that's gonna be an issue

237
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 7: over there when you are backing up a pitching staff

238
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,719
Speaker 7: that has Logan Webb and Adrian Houser and all these

239
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 7: guys that live and die by the two seemer and

240
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 7: sincer action where they're gonna get ground balls for you

241
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 7: every single game.

242
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 4: We have a number of people saying where's Dom Smith.

243
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 4: Many of you have texted in We're all with you.

244
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 4: We all thought one of our favorite interviews of all

245
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 4: of twenty twenty five was Dom Smith. And we all

246
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 4: saw the Nitig walkoff Grand Slam for the Braves.

247
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 6: Earlier this we had a sick glove over at first.

248
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 4: He was fantastic, so we all thought, well, roster construction wise,

249
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 4: was there a place for him? I mean, think about it,

250
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 4: you would have had to cut either Schmid or Costs.

251
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 5: Okay, maybe you're open to that.

252
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 4: Also, if indeed you're calling up Bryce Eldridge at some

253
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 4: point in the coming weeks, you would have three left

254
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 4: handed fitting first base.

255
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 8: Yeah.

256
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 7: Like I always thought Dom can kind of be in

257
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 7: the role of Gerar in Carnacion because Dom did play

258
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 7: outfield before he came to the Giants organization with the

259
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 7: Yankees and the Phillies, like you play a little bit

260
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 7: of alfield.

261
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 5: They really didn't test that out so much with Dom.

262
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 7: But to your point, I think the plan was to

263
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 7: eventually have Eldridge and Rafael Devers at first base, so

264
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 7: you don't want three lefties on the rock.

265
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 4: I don't want to say it cost them the game yesterday,

266
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 4: but maybe in a zero zero game in the sixth inning,

267
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 4: maybe it's a whole different game.

268
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: Now.

269
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 4: The Giants did strikeout fourteen times yesterday, and I was

270
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 4: wondering he did run the same lineup out day game

271
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 4: after a night game. And sometimes you don't do that

272
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 4: because you know, get a guy off his feet. Maybe

273
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 4: guy's a little tired, a little lethargic at day game

274
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 4: after a night game.

275
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 5: And that's when that's why you use your bench.

276
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 4: But Tony was adamant about not using the bench, and

277
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 4: stuff we can talk about with him.

278
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 7: Last thing text from the seven H seven says, forget

279
00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 7: the T shirts, Murph needs a new hat.

280
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 6: Catch the damn ball.

281
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 5: Ah, I'll get one. Let's go for my football hat,

282
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 5: Run the damn ball.

283
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 4: All right, good stuff. That's great knowledge of there. Uh okay,

284

312

Speaker 2: Uh.

318
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 8: So that was disturbing. I'm the only one that lives here.

319
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:42,439
Speaker 6: Uh.

320
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 8: But yeah, woke up and and uh, for whatever reason,

321
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 8: my brain clicked on right away that that's what had

322
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 8: to have happened. So I was on my phone for

323
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 8: about an hour in the middle of the night, and

324
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 8: probably like a lot of Giants fans, started looking online

325
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 8: and trying to figure out how we can, you know,

326
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 8: get the and then eventually get over that mark.

327
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 5: That's awesome. I love it, the first earthquake.

328
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 6: It's perfect.

329
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 5: Mother Nature welcomed you back.

330
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 4: So hey, listen, but we have so much to talk about,

331
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 4: but we wanted to start with the biggest deal, and

332
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 4: that is it happened Monday night in San Diego, your

333
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 4: first Major League win now, Tony. I think we were

334
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 4: pretty certain you were gonna get a major league win, right.

335
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,320
Speaker 5: So, but it's like graduating from high school. We know

336
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 5: it's gonna happen.

337
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 4: It's still a great occasion, right so we wanted to say,

338
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 4: that's a great moment. It was really cool to see it.

339
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 4: It was great to see everybody hugging you and all that.

340
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 4: And I know there's many many more to come, but

341
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 4: you're now in the books with John McGraw and Leoda

342
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 4: Roacher and Bruce Bochie and Dusty Baker, and just a

343
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 4: chance to reflect on that. I know you're in the

344
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 4: mode of trying to beat the Mets tonight. I get that,

345
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 4: but can you give us a little moment of reflection

346
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 4: and maybe something special that happened after the game?

347
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean the win was a lot better than

348
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 8: the locker room effort afterwards. I think the guys that

349
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 8: there was a lot of love felt that there was

350
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 8: also a lot of torture felt So, I guess it's

351
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 8: a little bit of a rookie hazing that goes on

352
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 8: after your first win. The good thing was we were

353
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 8: able to win a second game, and I wasn't the

354
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 8: only coach that was tormented a little bit with the rituals.

355
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 8: So that was fun to actually watch on night two

356
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 8: and actually enjoy the second win. But reflecting on the

357
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 8: first one, it was, to be honest with you, it

358
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 8: was great. You know, if you were gonna win one

359
00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 8: game against the Yankees or one game against the Padres,

360
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 8: you would rather win, you know, against the divisional opponent.

361
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 8: At the same time, it was a little bittersweet. There

362
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 8: was so much build up to that first week and

363
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 8: opening day. Really it was months and months of build up,

364
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 8: and man, the fanfare of the first two games and

365
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 8: really it bled into the third game were phenomenal, and

366
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 8: you know, to not get it done at home was

367
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 8: a little frustrating, but yeah, glad to get the first

368
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 8: one because you guys said you knew the first one

369
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 8: was going to come at some point, but we're all human.

370
00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 8: I gotta admit I didn't know, You're maybe not until

371
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 8: until it happened, just to be just to be fair,

372
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 8: But now our team is starting to play with some

373
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 8: personality and I think it's a completely different vibe. Uh,

374
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 8: since we were all able to kind of get that

375
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 8: monkey off the back.

376
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, Tony, we saw you win a lot of

377
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 7: games at the collegiate level with Tennessee obviously, but for

378
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 7: you to get this milestone win, did this win feel

379
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 7: different at all for you doing it at the major

380
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 7: league level and it was something that you were glad

381
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 7: to kind of get off your shoulders and move on from.

382
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was. It was definitely the latter. And then

383
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 8: you know, the first one was you know, you get

384
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 8: in a zero to three hole and we know what

385
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 8: last year's record was. It was, you know, even steven

386
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 8: and that's the mark that I think everyone has targeted.

387
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 8: I know, Giants fans may have other numbers in their head,

388
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 8: and I'd like to feel I got this highest standards

389
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 8: as anybody. But you get in that hole and your

390
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 8: first thought is, how do we, you know, get three

391
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 8: wins as quickly as possible so we're at least at

392
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 8: a mark that we want to be. And I get

393
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 8: it it is early in the season, although I also

394
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 8: get you know, the first ten games are always overreacted,

395
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 8: is what John Smoltz's quote was to me, And I said, well,

396
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 8: I'm one of those overreactors. We want to win as

397
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 8: quickly as possible and kind of get this train rolling. Yeah,

398
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 8: it was a great feeling to more than anything, to

399
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 8: see what we know we have in that locker room

400
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 8: kind of come together and now we do have some

401
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 8: factual data we can point to. Is we really feel

402
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 8: confident in this starting group. I know a couple of

403
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 8: these guys are capable of the night and he shut out,

404
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 8: But what we really see is just a group that's

405
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 8: stable and is always going to compete and can keep

406
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 8: us in the game at the end of the day.

407
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 8: To me, that's all you can ask your starting pitcher

408
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 8: to do when they get as many stars as they do.

409
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:04,919
Speaker 8: The bullpen was questioned by many, including us, to be

410
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 8: honest with you, so we're kind of on a mission

411
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 8: to actually make that a strength as opposed to a weakness.

412
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 8: Those guys have really responded well. And then hitting is

413
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 8: going to come and go. Defense, of course, needs to

414
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 8: be stable. We want to be aggressive on the basis

415
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 8: and we've we've kind of seen all those attributes. But

416
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 8: the main thing with that position group I wanted to

417
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 8: continue to ramble on about was I think there's a

418
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 8: lot of personality there. There's leadership, The guys really do

419
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 8: have a camaraderie. Already early in the year maybe it's

420
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 8: because we have some holdovers from last year. But as

421
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 8: that group continues to relax and continues to have some personality,

422
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 8: whether it's having fun or getting on each other and

423
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 8: being intense, I think it's a winning group.

424
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 4: By the way, we got ten million things to ask

425
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 4: you in this brief time we have, but you mentioned

426
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 4: the style and the energy and coming together. The one

427
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 4: thing that jumped out of me this is, and it

428
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 4: seems really random, Luisa Rise's delayed steel against the Yankees.

429
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 5: I freaking loved that.

430
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 4: And I was wondering if that was my first sign

431
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 4: of Tony v baseball or was that just something he

432
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 4: did entirely on his own, or was it something you

433
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 4: guys talked about in spring training or just a random question?

434
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 4: Was a backstory there's.

435
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,360
Speaker 8: It's something we talked about and something we do want

436
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 8: to be aggressive on the basis I mean, I got

437
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 8: asked about, you know, I believe from Korean media was

438
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 8: with Junghu being too aggressive. Maybe you know in San

439
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 8: Diego he makes a third out at third, but the

440
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 8: Padres made a mistake, and we want to try and

441
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 8: capitalize on other people's mistakes. And I think the only

442
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 8: way you find out what is being too aggressive is

443
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 8: to tow that line or go over that line, and

444
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 8: then maybe you learn lessons and you pull back a

445
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 8: little bit. So and I appreciate the phrase Tony v. Baseball,

446
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 8: But while myself and then the other coaches need to

447
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 8: be leaders, Ultimately, the guys on the field are going

448
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,320
Speaker 8: to play, and we just want them to play free

449
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 8: and play aggressive. So those are things we've talked about too.

450
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,439
Speaker 8: And then you add in the extra mix of just

451
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 8: some of the things Leise did this weekend or you know,

452
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:14,439
Speaker 8: against San Diego in particular. He's got a very unique style.

453
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 8: The game comes slow to him, He's having fun out there,

454
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 8: and yet he's really intense. He's a special guy to

455
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 8: have around and I'm hoping some of what he's got

456
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 8: going on wears off on the other guys too, because

457
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 8: it's a really unique deal just getting to watch him

458
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 8: play every night.

459
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, i'd say Luisa Rice has maybe gone off to

460
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 7: the best start on the entire team. What he's doing

461
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 7: on the base pass, what he's doing with the bat,

462
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 7: and even what he's doing defensively. But Tony, we've also

463
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 7: seen you move him around in the lineup, whether it's

464
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 7: a lead off spot, the three hole or the full hole.

465
00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 7: So talk to us about that process. What goes into

466
00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 7: those decisions. What is the thought process when you are

467
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 7: drawing up these lineups.

468
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 8: Yeah, for me, you know, I don't know where my

469
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 8: opinion matches up with others because I think there's a

470
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 8: lot of varying opinion that you can dive into. I

471
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 8: said a million times, I like healthy debates among the coaches,

472
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 8: So I think, you know, drawing on everyone's opinion, and

473
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 8: you got a unique deal with guys like Buster, you know,

474
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 8: and then I feel like I'm close with the other

475
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 8: upper management guys, just just asking them their opinion, even

476
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 8: though they've given us complete freedom to do what we

477
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 8: think we need to do. All the coaches, I like

478
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 8: at least knowing where the players like to be. That

479
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,480
Speaker 8: doesn't mean they're necessarily going to be there. And then

480
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 8: how guys are swinging at a particular time. We're early

481
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,159
Speaker 8: in the season, so it's a little tough to judge

482
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 8: that part. And then you got the matchups too, and

483
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 8: then some of it is just not hey, this is

484
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 8: the best guy in this particular spot. It's just putting

485
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 8: together the whole nine guys. And where we got good

486
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 8: at Tennessee, which is a completely different level, is where

487
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 8: all nine guys were a pain in the butt for

488
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 8: the other staff. And you know, you don't really know

489
00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 8: where those RBI situations are gonna come. The other night

490
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 8: it was seven, eight, and nine that did a lot

491
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 8: of the damage and set the table. And you know,

492
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 8: Willie ended up coming up in some RBI situations even

493
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 8: though he was in the leadoff spot. So if I

494
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 8: was to say one big thing about it is sometimes

495
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 8: it comes up as crucial, Sometimes it comes up as

496
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 8: overrated where guys are at. But what never comes up

497
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 8: underrated or undervalued is meeting all nine guys when they

498
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 8: do get their opportunity, no matter what situation it is,

499
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 8: get the kleets and the dirt and compete for the Giants.

500
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 8: And again, if nine guys do that, it's a pain

501
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,400
Speaker 8: in the butt to be a pitching coach. I've been

502
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 8: that guy.

503
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 4: Tony Vattello is the voice you hear on our Giants

504
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,719
Speaker 4: executive show. We rotate Buster and Tony and Zach Manazzi

505
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 4: and Larry Behar, So we appreciate right and nearly the

506
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 4: manager getting up and talking to these Giants fans out here.

507
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 4: So we've done a lot of macro big picture stuff

508
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:57,879
Speaker 4: and the win and all that. Now we go micro

509
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 4: first base. Casey Schmidt has played every game at first base.

510
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 4: He's not a natural first basement. I think he came

511
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,239
Speaker 4: up as a shortstop and then a third basement. So

512
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 4: we'd love to know, you know, when you and your

513
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 4: coaches sit down and talk about the lineup, why have

514
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 4: you played Casey at first every game? And is that

515
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 4: going to change anytime soon given Dever's health.

516
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think you know, Raffi's closer. I don't think

517
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 8: it's anything immediate. The one thing we've tried to do

518
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 8: is get other guys caught up to being able to

519
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 8: play at that position, just to kind of lengthen the

520
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 8: amount of options we have at this point. You know,

521
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 8: Casey's shown the best defense more than anything. And it

522
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 8: was unique on day one. We're looking ahead like Giants fans,

523
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 8: and you know the lineup all along was going to

524
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 8: be Casey and Raffi in there. So it just kind

525
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:53,200
Speaker 8: of became a switch out. As a couple of weeks out,

526
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 8: you know, Raffi had some handstring issues. So yeah, right now,

527
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 8: I mean, he's he's capable of doing damage with the

528
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 8: bat like a lot of our hitters, he's capable of

529
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 8: just flat out doing better than he's done so far

530
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 8: in a small sample size. But defensively he's shown the

531
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 8: best over there. Yesterday was unique with you know, you

532
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 8: wonder because I've been the baseball player before where one

533
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 8: play affects confidence of another. You wonder if the first

534
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 8: the first one is really tricky. You got to put

535
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 8: yourself in the guy's shoes of you know, Chap, He's

536
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 8: got to get rid of it because Machado can run

537
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 8: pretty good, and it was a tricky play. But then

538
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,920
Speaker 8: you got the biggest guy on the padres bearing down

539
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 8: on you in the ball meeting. At the same time,

540
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,000
Speaker 8: all of us would like to play made. It wasn't made.

541
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 8: You move on, and we're still in a position to

542
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,120
Speaker 8: win the game. I think twice now Casey is guilty

543
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 8: of what every first basement is. So this is where

544
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 8: my experience pays off. In college, you got young guys,

545
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 8: A lot of guys are converting to that spot, and

546
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 8: then a lot of guys just haven't been coached at

547
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 8: that spot. Stretching early is the most common problem over

548
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 8: at first base, and it's really difficult to not do.

549
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 8: You need experience, and I think he's been guilty of

550
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 8: that a couple times, but not guilty of again to

551
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 8: me competing because nobody felt worse after the game yesterday.

552
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 8: And yeah, there are two plays that had a big impact,

553
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 8: but there are a lot of other plays that went

554
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 8: on in that game too.

555
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 7: Just to follow up on Raphael Devers, because we have

556
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 7: not seen him in the field yet, we know he

557
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 7: is dealing with some hamstring tightness. We saw him bust

558
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 7: down the line the other day pretty damn hard. So

559
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,919
Speaker 7: do you guys have a timeline of when you do

560
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 7: want to see him back in the field.

561
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, and he did that, you know, against our advisement,

562
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 8: mainly mine. I got made fun of for yelling at

563
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 8: him and spring training to take it to kind of

564
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,199
Speaker 8: cool it on the bases a little bit, but he

565
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 8: was hauling but you know, down the line a couple

566
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 8: different times in spring training, once almost beaten out an

567
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 8: infield hit. And so it's kind of been the theme

568
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,679
Speaker 8: that we already know of. He feels really comfortable in

569
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 8: a straight line, but when you're getting into a squat

570
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 8: position or you know, you're you're potentially stretching real far,

571
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 8: but even just a little bit is where his discomfort is.

572
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 8: So that's where everybody's at right now. Is all right,

573
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 8: we have one hundred and sixty two games to play?

574
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 8: How deep in do we go before we're pushing it?

575
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 8: Because right now I think everybody agrees we'd be pushing

576
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 8: it a little bit. And then on the flip side

577
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,199
Speaker 8: of that, they're doing that, you know, ag Gress and

578
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 8: his staff are doing everything possible with him to loosen

579
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:35,119
Speaker 8: that thing up and just get him feeling where he

580
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 8: needs to be. And I, you know, would be sugarcoating

581
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,639
Speaker 8: or however you want to phrase it, I'd be saying

582
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:44,480
Speaker 8: the wrong thing if I didn't say our best lineup

583
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 8: is with those common eight guys that everybody knows out

584
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,640
Speaker 8: there in the field every day, and that of course

585
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 8: needs Rafi at first.

586
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,400
Speaker 4: A couple of quick ones follow. Luis Rise can play first.

587
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,360
Speaker 4: Have you guys thought about playing him there in the meantime?

588
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean it's a potential, but it's also you know,

589
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 8: a part of least the selection of where he was

590
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,640
Speaker 8: going to play, you know, of course, being a free

591
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 8: agent and he was you know, determined to play second base,

592
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 8: and I think that's something that we were determined to

593
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 8: do too. Is kind of feel really good about that

594
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:22,720
Speaker 8: spot case and costs offer a tremendous amount of flexibility

595
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 8: on the field. That are talented guys, but we're looking

596
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 8: for an everyday veteran second basement and so that's where

597
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 8: that combination kind of met in the middle. And I

598
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 8: use that word determination on purpose, determined to play second

599
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 8: That's one of the reasons you see him playing well

600
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 8: defensively is the mindset met with the work ethic to

601
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 8: play that position. So that's kind of the background behind

602
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 8: that got it.

603
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 5: Got it?

604
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 4: Okay, So we just talked about your eight guys in

605
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,879
Speaker 4: the lineup and one of the things that has stood

606
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 4: out is my gosh, at everyday lineup over and over

607
00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:58,480
Speaker 4: and over again.

608
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 5: In many ways that's a positive.

609
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 4: But in some ways you're thinking, okay, well, day game

610
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:03,959
Speaker 4: after a night game is a good time to get

611
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 4: some guys off their feet. You guys did strike out

612
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 4: fourteen times yesterday. Maybe some guys were a little lethargic.

613
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,159
Speaker 4: Paveta has something to do with that, I know, But

614
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,640
Speaker 4: are you now beginning to learn like Okay, here's how

615
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 4: I got to start using my bench guys, or no,

616
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 4: I'm going with my eight.

617
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:21,919
Speaker 8: A little bit. I mean, you know, I think at

618
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 8: this point Jared, you know, had a lot to do

619
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 8: with you know, tacking on to the lead the night before.

620
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 8: His role has kind of been seen now by by fans.

621
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 8: Is he's a weapon offensively on the basis. Doesn't mean

622
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 8: he can't do other things. But he'll eventually get some

623
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 8: time in the outfield. But you know, for the most part,

624
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,360
Speaker 8: those are our three guys. The left eye guys literally

625
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 8: want to be out there every day. We're a little

626
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 8: limited right now what we can do on the right side.

627
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 8: I think Gerar eventually he will get his opportunity over

628
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 8: at first base. He's worked hard to try and put

629
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 8: Reps into that position. And then Patty and I met

630
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 8: the night before and our options were to you know,

631
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 8: switch out and let Susac catch yesterday, or to do

632
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,160
Speaker 8: it today today we see a left handed pitcher. It's

633
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,199
Speaker 8: after a road trip. Patty really felt like he had

634
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,479
Speaker 8: a good sense of the Padres lineup as far as

635
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 8: pitch calling goes, and then also had started to catch

636
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:27,639
Speaker 8: a little bit of a rhythm at the plate. So

637
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 8: after some discussions with everybody, we decided to go with

638
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 8: Bailey today yesterday and Seusac today as opposed to flipping that.

639
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 7: A few more minutes here with Giants manager Tony Vaytello

640
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 7: on the Giants Executive Show on CAMBI are sponsored by

641
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 7: Redwood Credit Union for you for community for seventy five years.

642
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 7: And Tony just kind of a big picture broad question

643
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,520
Speaker 7: on the ABS challenge system. Now, I know you guys

644
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 7: got to work through it throughout spring training, but now

645
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 7: six games into the regular season, what is the strategy

646
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 7: there for you guys? Do you like it when guys

647
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 7: are aggressive early? Do you want to save some of

648
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 7: those challenges in your back pop it for later on

649
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:01,160
Speaker 7: in games?

650
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 6: Would you rather have your.

651
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 7: Pitchers and catchers have it in their back pocket versus

652
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 7: the batters maybe getting an extra opportunity. What's the philosophy

653
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 7: and overall team strategy when it comes to using these

654
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 7: ABS challenges.

655
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, the conversations in spring training were really good because

656
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 8: it was just pulling out outliers where hey, the next

657
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 8: time this comes up, really try and do this, or

658
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 8: let's not use it here. But we just wanted the

659
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 8: guys to experiment with it and be aggressive. So going

660
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 8: into the season, we were one of the highest rated

661
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 8: teams and the guys had done a really good job.

662
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 8: And obviously a big part of that was, you know,

663
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 8: Patty Bailey is so good it kind of having a

664
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 8: feel for that, not just the catcher, but a hitter.

665
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 8: He had a lot of success. So there wasn't a

666
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 8: lot that wanted to be changed. But one thing we've

667
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 8: seen and kind of pointed out to the guys is

668
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,480
Speaker 8: they've been a little tentative with it. But I think

669
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 8: a part of that is just, you know, understanding when

670
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 8: you're out of them, things change. And I'll let you

671
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 8: guys talk about that on air, because there's there's a

672
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 8: lot that changes. Some of it you can control, some

673
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 8: of it you can't. And then you know, eighth and

674
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 8: ninth inning, you'd like to have one in your back pocket,

675
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 8: in particular on defense or if you're you know, up

676
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 8: at the plate with the game on the line, you

677
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 8: know that that also would would fall into that category.

678
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 8: If anything, I think guys have been a little hesitant,

679
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 8: and it's no fault of them not considering it. I

680
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,239
Speaker 8: think everybody's trying to keep the team in mind, and

681
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 8: it's interesting. I don't like putting conspiracy theories out there,

682
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 8: but you know, probably a little bit of that hesitancy

683
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 8: has been a little bit of the try hard that

684
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 8: we've seen out of our guys. And I don't know

685
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 8: if it appears that way on TV or in the sands,

686
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 8: but I think if we're guilty, if anything as a group,

687
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 8: it's just trying a little too hard to do well

688
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 8: and to win. And when you do that, you're not

689
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 8: loose and you're not yourself, and you tend to lock

690
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 8: up a little bit in situations. And again, I think

691
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 8: there's been some situations in particular on offense where we've

692
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:11,239
Speaker 8: drawn ball four, but our guys haven't used that. So

693
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 8: but we've also seen if you use it early, all

694
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 8: of a sudden, now you're a little bit hamstrung in

695
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 8: the middle innings because you don't want to spend that

696
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 8: second one and go through the last four four three

697
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 8: innings even without one.

698
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, padres blue one early yesterday. Listen, we could go

699
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 4: on and on and on and on, but we're talking.

700
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 4: No managers experience this first California earthquake. He's got he's

701
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 4: got to get his bearings. So we're gonna let you go,

702
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 4: but rapid fire just at the end.

703
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 5: Some fun ones.

704
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 4: If anybody from Knoxville or Missouri or Arkansas texted you

705
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 4: in the past week and said, hey, Tony, how's the show?

706
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 5: What's your answer?

707
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,800
Speaker 8: You know what, I gotta be honest. I had to

708
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 8: comment the hotel, accommodations and the food are a little

709
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 8: bit better.

710
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like that Crash Tame.

711
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:59,560
Speaker 8: I really yeah. I really enjoyed working in Arkansas. But

712
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 8: we actually finished our season there as an opponent, and

713
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,400
Speaker 8: the Fairfield in Fairfield in in Fayettville, Arkansas. You're on

714
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:09,959
Speaker 8: a little bit of a remote island out.

715
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 5: It's not the Hotel del Cornado.

716
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: No.

717
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 7: Yeah.

718
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 8: And also I was chatting with one of the Tennessee

719
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 8: players and we had a good conversation going. But I said,

720
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 8: all right, man, I gotta get going. I got he

721
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 8: had a midweek game going against a non conference opponent,

722
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 8: and I told him we got Fernando Tatis to worry about.

723
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 5: So it's kind of assamical moment.

724
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 4: You just minded me of the Crash Davis scene in

725
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 4: bull Durham and he's like, all the batting practice balls

726
00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 4: are white and they take your bags and then we'll

727
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 4: get pg.

728
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 5: Thirteen. All the women have long legs and brains. Right.

729
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 8: But yes, indeed, I'd be lying if I didn't say

730
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 8: I thought about that scene.

731
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 4: Okay, good mane Okay, So that's one number two. We

732
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 4: love to be flattered here in San Francisco, our beautiful city.

733
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 4: Tell us about the park, Stanley, You said, so, I

734
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 4: mean you played the Sultanes and there was like two

735
00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 4: or three people there.

736
00:32:59,000 --> 00:32:59,959
Speaker 5: Then you played the Yankees.

737
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 4: It was forty thousand, and you looked up a couple

738
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 4: of times and you looked at the sky and the.

739
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 5: Cove and all that.

740
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,479
Speaker 4: Can you brag about that site, Tony? Tell us how

741
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 4: awesome it was, just the.

742
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 8: Whole vibe of the city. Because my family's here, and

743
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 8: you know, we had the off days here and walking

744
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 8: the streets. And I come from the Midwest, born and

745
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 8: then lived in the East Coast. And one thing that

746
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 8: was talked about a bunch, and I was fortunate enough

747
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 8: to meet the mayor, was how the new mayor has

748
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 8: impacted the city. I only know what I know. I

749
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 8: was here a bunch, you know, a couple decades ago,

750
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 8: and maybe a little closer too. In recent time. I've

751
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 8: always loved the city, but whatever's going on right now,

752
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 8: maybe it was the magic of Opening Day. Just the vibe,

753
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 8: the energy, the look of was phenomenal outside the park,

754
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 8: inside the park, the national anthem, everything that had to

755
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 8: go with it was so great that I found myself

756
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 8: maybe not enjoying it as much as I should have,

757
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 8: because you don't want to get distracted from the game,

758
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 8: and so I kind of look forward to being game

759
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,359
Speaker 8: fifty six or whatever number you want to attach to it,

760
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 8: and being at home and really kind of taken in

761
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:18,320
Speaker 8: time to relish in the unique environment we have because

762
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 8: you got the fans here active. I thought we had

763
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 8: that too in the FBC is the fans are big

764
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 8: in number, but that doesn't mean a lot unless they're active,

765
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 8: and they just seem to be very active here. And

766
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 8: then you get views from our stadium that are during

767
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,280
Speaker 8: pre game when I'm moving around. It's a great park.

768
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 8: Everybody knows that. I'm jealous of the people that get

769
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 8: the overhead views. You know, I rewatched the games and

770
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 8: every now and then they'll show that overhead view when

771
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,200
Speaker 8: you get the bay and everything else. It's it's incredible.

772
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 4: Now the drones that NBC Sports be Area US have

773
00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 4: been a game changer. It's just spectacular. So I'm glad

774
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 4: you're all enjoying that. And by the way, the final

775
00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 4: most important question is what did you say to the

776
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 4: he heckler in San Diego?

777
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 8: Is there one guy in particular?

778
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 4: Well, so when you you won your first game, you

779
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 4: turned around and said something to the crowd.

780
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 5: We thought it was to maybe mom and dad or sisters.

781
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, there was a guy that just would not

782
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 8: stop yelling at me. But he wasn't. He wasn't. I

783
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 8: don't know if he was a Giants fan or a

784
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:26,439
Speaker 8: Podres fan. He just kept yelling. And you know, those

785
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 8: seats wrap around the dugouts like a lot of these

786
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,840
Speaker 8: parks now, they want you close to the action. So

787
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 8: I just looked and kind of gave a thumbs up,

788
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 8: and uh, you know, to this day, I don't know

789
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 8: if he was four or against, but he was loud. Okay, now,

790
00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 8: now yesterday, I know which guys were definitely not for

791
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 8: the Giants. I think old Harry Bater, probably because he

792
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 8: looked like Randy Macho man Savage in a baseball uniform.

793
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,879
Speaker 8: You know, they like talking to him. I can tell

794
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 8: you that Tots.

795
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 5: There you go.

796
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 4: All right, listen, we're getting to know you. Everybody's getting

797
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 4: to know you. It was great to take. Hey, you know,

798
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,919
Speaker 4: the Giants only beat the Padres three times last year,

799
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 4: and you got them twice in one series in their parks.

800
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 5: So that's pretty good. Now.

801
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 4: As you said to your buddy from Tennessee, hey, I

802
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 4: gotta go. I got the New York Metropolitans to worry about.

803
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,879
Speaker 4: I got Juan Soto and Franky Lindor coming to town.

804
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,160

00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 7: Man.

845
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,719

846
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 4: he sleeps a ton he's awake a lot.

847
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:58,879
Speaker 7: Thinking, oh, we know that he wasn't sleeping last night

848
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 7: after being woke up awaken yes, from a slumber by

849
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:03,240
Speaker 7: that earthquake.

850
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 4: Heay, what do you think, buddy, Tony you finally got

851
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:07,360
Speaker 4: validation on the earthquake because.

852
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 5: I walked in at you know, my usual time.

853
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 4: I said, boys, as I always doing, Tony the Medians, like, dude,

854
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 4: the earthquake, and I'm like, what earthquake. He's like, oh

00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 4: man and crowl. He's like, yep, chewing his gump. Yeah,

856
00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 4: I felt it. I felt it and uh And I

857
00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 4: was like, well, I didn't feel it. So he's like, dude,

858
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,319
Speaker 4: where were you one forty nine and overnight. Dave's like, yeah,

859
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,360
Speaker 4: the whole thing was shaken. I was like, I'm sorry,

860
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 4: I didn't feel it. So that so he was disappointing

861
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 4: when somebody didn't feel the earthquake. You can't share stories. Well,

862
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:34,000
Speaker 4: guess what, Tony V felt it, bro, he's your guy.

863
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 7: You must be in the Marina or North Beach were

864
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 7: both up there and we felt it for sure. I

865
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,760
Speaker 7: was gonna say I'm in the city. I slipped straight

866
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,200
Speaker 7: through it. I had no idea, like I honestly thought

867
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,480
Speaker 7: the boys were riff and they were like, markis, did

868
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,319
Speaker 7: you feel the four point earthquake last night? I was like, yeah,

869
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,600
Speaker 7: we talking maclan celebringing down at the tank. Yeah, that

870
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 7: was the four point earthquake that I felt. Low.

871
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,800
Speaker 4: We opened the show making a joke about Maclin registering

872
00:38:57,800 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 4: four point six on the Richter scale, But now Tony

873
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 4: felt it and welcome to San Francisco. He got his

874
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:03,880
Speaker 4: first and then he said at that point he was

875
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 4: up for an hour and he goes in like most

876
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,080
Speaker 4: Giants fans on my phone trying to figure out.

877
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 5: How to win a game.

878
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 4: Hope he's not reading comments, right, don't read comments, Tony Twitter.

879
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 6: It's not real life.

880
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 4: I know because the Chapman Schmidt incident yesterday, and he

881
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 4: addressed it after the game yesterday saying it's like brothers

882
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,600
Speaker 4: in the backyard. But man, oh man, we went very

883
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 4: very big picture with him his first big league win,

884
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,799
Speaker 4: what it's like to be in the show, running out

885
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 4: the same lineup every day. He basically kind of doubled

886
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 4: down on that. By the way, He's like, yeah, those

887
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,799
Speaker 4: are our guys. Very interesting, he said, we're not messing

888
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:33,720
Speaker 4: with the left side of our infield Chapman at a damas.

889
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 7: That is true, same eight guys, but they have mixed

890
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,120
Speaker 7: up the order a little bit. So it was good

891
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 7: seeing like an inside the look of the Tony V

892
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,400
Speaker 7: brain with his brain trust and all those minds that

893
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 7: he has in the dugout and in the front office

894
00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:46,800
Speaker 7: of how they even draw up some of these lineups.

895
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:48,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're listening to camber I am and Cambier FM Servianscot

896
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 4: the sports leader a Cumulus Media station. I found him

897
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 4: to be relaxed into chatty. You know he can be

898
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 4: as we know, he likes to go a little bit.

899
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 4: Somebody joked that we needed the Tony young Tony. What

900
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:02,360
Speaker 4: did young Tony ask to Bell after sixty seconds? But no,

901
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 4: we enjoyed kind of peeking into his brain. I liked

902
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 4: letting him brag about say I always like to do

903
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 4: that for people who are new.

904
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,319
Speaker 5: Tell me how beautiful our city is, tell us, tell us,

905
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:10,799
Speaker 5: come on.

906
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 6: Come on.

907
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 4: So but yeah, for him to get into that vibe

908
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 4: and him to get into that me. I asked him

909
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 4: about the Arise steal of third. He kind of chuckled

910
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,879
Speaker 4: about Tony v. Baseball, but he said, I want these

911
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 4: guys playing free and lose. So basically I think he said, yeah,

912
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 4: we might have talked about it, but that's Luis Arise

913
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 4: doing it on his own.

914
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 5: He mentioned Jung Hu Lee getting thrown out.

915
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,879
Speaker 4: Sounds like he wasn't that upset with Jung Hu trying

916
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 4: to be aggressive like that.

917
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 5: No, and I get it.

918
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,640
Speaker 7: Traditionally, it's the old cliche in baseball, never make the

919
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:41,920
Speaker 7: first or third out at third base, and Jung Ho

920
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 7: Lee did make the third out. But I think Tony

921
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 7: likes some of that aggressive nature and it's a nice

922
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,799
Speaker 7: balance that we're seeing from the first couple games of

923
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:51,840
Speaker 7: the season where he felt like maybe there was a

924
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 7: little bit too try hard, too much emotion, but he

925
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,840
Speaker 7: also loves seeing the aggressiveness on the bass pass and

926
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 7: even at the plate. When we started talking about ABA,

927
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 7: there's been a couple of situations where the Giants have

928
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 7: showed up in the ninth inning with two challenges ready

929
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 7: to go, which is a great scenario, but that also

930
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 7: means you can take some risk earlier in games and

931
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,359
Speaker 7: maybe win some of those challenges and give your guys

932
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:12,399
Speaker 7: a couple more extra bets.

933
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 4: All right, what are you guys saying on the Golden

934
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,320
Speaker 4: State Lumber and show him? Text on for the first

935
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,959
Speaker 4: Tony V show of the season. Four oh A, Tony

936
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 4: V is a treat man. I think he's only going

937
00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,360
Speaker 4: to get better and better for us. Great interview silver

938
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 4: lining from last night. Adrian Hauser looked pretty good. D

939
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:27,560
Speaker 4: nine two five says Tony V found his Niche a

940
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,600
Speaker 4: two on one phone interview on Canby are shorter focused answers,

941
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 4: no analogies, no digressions. He says, thank you for not

942
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:34,840
Speaker 4: bringing up Chapman and Schmidt.

943
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 5: We meant to.

944
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 4: It was on our list, but we got so many

945
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,600
Speaker 4: things going on, and he kind of addressed it yesterday

946
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 4: and we spent more time focusing on the actual defensive

947
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 4: issue with Casey Schmid being over our first base. Yeah,

948
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 4: he addressed that at length and Rafael Devers still not

949
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:52,360
Speaker 4: ready to go on and his his defense was that

950
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,480
Speaker 4: Casey's the best defensive first basement over there, and he

951
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 4: talked about the two plays in specific, the one was

952
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:00,239
Speaker 4: you know you got Machado bearing down on you and

953
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 4: the balls going into the base path. It's a tough play.

954
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,800
Speaker 4: The second one he said, no, he's stretching too early

955
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 4: and that's been a problem and we're working on it.

956
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 4: He did say that. Five one oh says, fantastic Tony V.

957
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 4: Conversation today. He covered a lot of territory and he

958
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 4: was terrific. Four oas says, dude, love Tony V. He's

959
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,719
Speaker 4: an interesting guy. A three one says, Wow, Tony V

960
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 4: has a lot to say and I like it. He

961
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:22,439
Speaker 4: doesn't just give the quick answer the question. He turns

962
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,240
Speaker 4: it into a conversation. Makes for a good entertaining interview.

963
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,319
Speaker 4: Nine two five says, what a great interview that guy is.

964
00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 4: His openness and authenticity is incredibly refreshing. And here's the

965
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 4: first negative one four oys says that tryhard s is

966
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 4: nonsense and makes my skin crawl every time he says it.

967
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 8: Okay, all right.

968
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 4: Five one O says what's happening now is old school

969
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:42,359
Speaker 4: baseball is back.

970
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:45,239
Speaker 5: Analytics have taken a back seat. Awesome. That goes back

971
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,240
Speaker 5: to the Logan web decision.

972
00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,879
Speaker 4: Four O wait says, Tony V sounds like a caffeinated

973
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 4: version of Bomel nine one six says, awesome answer about

974
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 4: Pat Bailey. We talked about that about catching him, so

975
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 4: Sussek will catch tonight.

976
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, because it was interesting to see past your Bailey

977
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 7: back to back games in the squad night game going

978
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:03,840
Speaker 7: into a day game yesterday.

979
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 5: Two and four says, awesome talk with Vitello.

980
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,360
Speaker 4: Say what you will about his word salads, but it

981
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 4: definitely makes for great listening in the morning after the game.

982
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 4: Four OA says, love that phrase by Tony V. Play

983
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 4: free and aggressive. Here's the guy seven h seven So

984
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 4: you need that sixty second bell Tony V.

985
00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,000
Speaker 5: Seven to seven three says I'm on team Tony V.

986
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,520
Speaker 4: More coming into five to one zero says ps we

987
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 4: need to appreciate Tony's respectful responses to you. Two and

988
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:29,560
Speaker 4: then nine two to five said I heard there's a

989
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 4: guy down in tripa A who's getting pretty good at

990
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:33,760
Speaker 4: first base. We didn't get a chance to asking about Bryce,

991
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 4: which i'man you know, the beat writers will all ask

992
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:37,440
Speaker 4: about that. Bryce said, By the way, I think two

993
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 4: knocks in a double yesterday.

994
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 6: Good for Bryce.

995
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 5: You know it was also hitting down there. Grant McCray.

996
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 7: Dude has been cutting down that strikeout right all spring

997
00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 7: training along. I mean, if you're looking for a left

998
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 7: handed option off the bench, Grant McCray would be one

999
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 7: of your first options.

1000
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 5: I think Will.

1001
00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,800
Speaker 4: Brendan did too, So listen, he's sticking with the regular stuff.

1002
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:56,799
Speaker 4: I tried to ask him about playing the bench more.

1003
00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 4: That would be my one thing. I would say that

1004
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,239
Speaker 4: and this. I could be totally wrong on this, so

1005
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 4: throw a tomato at me if you think I'm wrong.

1006
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 5: Thank you.

1007
00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:09,959
Speaker 4: Fourteen strikeouts yesterday. I know Nick Povetta is a strikeout guy.

1008
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:12,359
Speaker 4: He had one hundred and ninety last year or something

1009
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,400
Speaker 4: like that, but it was a lot of strikeouts too

1010
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 4: many reminded me of last year.

1011
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 5: I looked it up the Giants.

1012
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 4: I was like, after six games, where are the Giants

1013
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 4: and strikeouts in Major League? They're actually only middle of

1014
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,480
Speaker 4: the pack. They're not top ten, so they're doing better

1015
00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 4: in that. But I wondered if some of the strikeouts

1016
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,000
Speaker 4: were because day game after a night game. Some guys

1017
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 4: are maybe a little dragon, just a smidge, and that's

1018
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 4: why maybe you play a fresher guy, Christian cost I

1019
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 4: don't know. Jared Olive Ajerarian Carnacion. I don't know a

1020
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 4: Sioux sack per se, but he addressed the susack one

1021
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:45,799
Speaker 4: saying Bailey said he had a good handle on the

1022
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 4: Padre lineup and he wanted to use his knowledge of

1023
00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 4: what he gleaned in the first two games to catch

1024
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:54,319
Speaker 4: So maybe you buy that one. But day game after

1025
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 4: a night game, Patty Bailey, you know, he didn't have

1026
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 4: a good offensive game.

1027
00:44:57,800 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 7: And it's a long season, and I thought it would

1028
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 7: have been a perfect time for a day off for

1029
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 7: Patrick Bailey, and I said it before the game yesterday.

1030
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 7: I thought it would have been a day off for

1031
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 7: Casey Schmid too, over at first base, whether you want

1032
00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:10,640
Speaker 7: to put Jaar out there or even switch over at

1033
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 7: Luisa Rice and play Casey Schmid at second, maybe just

1034
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 7: to give him an off day because he hasn't been

1035
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:17,359
Speaker 7: too great at the play either. I know he had

1036
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 7: a knock in that Tuesday game against the Padres. But

1037
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 7: you're gonna have to get these bats into the lineup

1038
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 7: at some point. But getting back to your earlier point,

1039
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 7: the problem is a lot of these bats off the

1040
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,600
Speaker 7: bench are not better than the options they currently have

1041
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 7: in the lineup. So there's really not gonna be too

1042
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,400
Speaker 7: many pinch hit situations when Christian cost is here as

1043
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,279
Speaker 7: a defensive replacement for Luisa rise Ley, Jared all of

1044
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,080
Speaker 7: us a guy that's essentially just a pinch runner, and

1045
00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 7: we've seen Jerar has gotten one opportunity kind of fisted

1046
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,920
Speaker 7: the ball yesterday. They just really don't have the deepest

1047
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:47,680
Speaker 7: bench in the league.

1048
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,000
Speaker 4: It's an interesting thing. I just that's the one thing

1049
00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:52,200
Speaker 4: that's addling me a little bit. I'm very pleased with

1050
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:54,399
Speaker 4: the bullpen. We didn't get asking about Jose Bueau either,

1051
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:59,839
Speaker 4: which didn't sound great. Forearm tightness. Also World Baseball Classic guy.

1052
00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:02,240
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know how I always get that red flag

1053
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,800
Speaker 7: anytime you mentioned a four arm with pitchers.

1054
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,759
Speaker 4: He didn't see he was definitely off as Velo was

1055
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:08,360
Speaker 4: down in his location. But I actually in this we

1056
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 4: didn't get a chance to ask Tony this because bigger picture,

1057
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 4: bigger fish to fry.

1058
00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 5: Than why did you use Botou in the eighth inning

1059
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 5: last night? But I did?

1060
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,879
Speaker 4: I mean the game was what three to one when

1061
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 4: he came in or five? Was it three to one

1062
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:20,440
Speaker 4: or five three to one when he came in?

1063
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 8: Right?

1064
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 6: I think you're is that he had pitched the night.

1065
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:25,680
Speaker 4: Before, and I knew he only threw eighteen pitches, and

1066
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 4: even by Little League standards, you can pitch back to

1067
00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:29,879
Speaker 4: back days when you throw under twenty. But I thought,

1068
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 4: with so many options, I wondered why they went right

1069
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 4: back to him. He'd only pitched a few hours earlier

1070
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 4: and then it went poorly, So I don't know. Again,

1071
00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:38,320
Speaker 4: that's small ish potatoes, but he might be hurt and

1072
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, those guys down in Triple A,

1073
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 4: who you know, the Trevor McDonald's and the Carson Seymour's

1074
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 4: and the Carson Wizon Hunts.

1075
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 5: M hmm, they might get a call.

1076
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:48,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, tell Spencer Bivins or trist to get ready to

1077
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:50,080
Speaker 7: go like this, Like some of those guys, someone's going

1078
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 7: to have to be called up.

1079
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 4: What happens is that, you know, Yeah, we're sending you

1080
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 4: to Triple A. Kid, keep your phone on, Yeah, stay ready,

1081
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:57,520
Speaker 4: get ready to be on the taxi squad. But yeah,

1082
00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 4: I was a little curious to see bhutto back to

1083
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 4: back day. It's not the end of the world.

1084
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 7: But also once he walked the second and third guys,

1085
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 7: I'm like, what are we doing still having Jose Butou

1086
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:05,880
Speaker 7: out there.

1087
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 6: I never want to see a reliever walk forward.

1088
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 4: Guys and Kok and Kiper talking about them and they

1089
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 4: said they showed the bullpen.

1090
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 5: They're like, it's his inning.

1091
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 4: They're like, it's well they got you know, seven straight now,

1092
