Speaker 1: Heybody, it's around the Park of the Crooker Kype. And
Speaker 1: tonight it's all about opportunity. A lot of guys in
Speaker 1: this lineup tonight for the Giants you haven't heard, but
Speaker 1: you will know their name by the end of the night.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about it when we come back. He eybody,
Speaker 1: it's around the Park of the Crooker Kype. And today
Speaker 1: is game one of the three game series between the
Speaker 1: Giants and the Cincinnati Reds and Kype. I looked at
Speaker 1: the lineup today and you know, they unfortunately, there have
Speaker 1: been some injuries. The Giants lost three players yesterday got
Speaker 1: put on the I l William Thomas and Barry Koto
Speaker 1: and Brew Baker all I eled and so the Giants
Speaker 1: dipped down into Sacramento and they got They brought a
Speaker 1: lot of guys up. And on top of everything, Bryce
Speaker 1: Eldridge his grandfather passed away, so he's on bereavement leave
Speaker 1: and he won't be here with the club for three days.
Speaker 1: So a lot of new people who are coming up here.
Speaker 1: And you know, it just so happened that I got
Speaker 1: a chance. Because we're watching the games on the NBC
Speaker 1: Sports Bay Area where the Giants were back East in
Speaker 1: Ohio and in Boston, and after the games were over
Speaker 1: around seven o'clock, they flipped the right to the Sacamore
Speaker 1: River Cats. We got a chance to see those games.
Speaker 1: So I've seen all these guys, and I know one thing.
Speaker 1: I mean a lot of these guys that are playing
Speaker 1: tonight Giants fans haven't heard of, but they can hit.
Speaker 2: Well, You're way better off than I am, because I
Speaker 2: think I saw him play one game and the one
Speaker 2: guy that really stood out was the Bo Davidson kid.
Speaker 2: And he's not here. Well, Turner Hill is here. And now,
Speaker 2: if you'd have told me that in spring training that
Speaker 2: the Giants are going to roll out a lineup where
Speaker 2: Turner Hill was your cleanupitter, I'd have said, wait a minute.
Speaker 2: If this is a spring training game, do the Giants
Speaker 2: have enough starters in their lineup? Where are they going
Speaker 2: to get in trouble? And we counted the starters. There's
Speaker 2: two starters, three if you Drew Gilbert. But this is
Speaker 2: what happens towards the end of the season, when all
Speaker 2: of a sudden injuries start to pile up. There isn't
Speaker 2: anything you can do about it. And we're not talking
Speaker 2: about injuries where maybe a little calf here. I mean,
Speaker 2: these are all significant injuries and consequently you get to
Speaker 2: see what you got in the minor leagues. And tonight
Speaker 2: we're gonna get a chance to see if the second
Speaker 2: baseman tonight can come up with this first major league hit.
Speaker 1: Nate Furman not to be mixed up with Nate Thurman,
Speaker 1: who was a great basketball player, great warrior. Different size
Speaker 1: Nate Furman. Now Nate Thurman was I think at six'
Speaker 1: eleven or close to. It Nate furman is five to,
Speaker 1: seven five to. Seven but he can. Hit he can,
Speaker 1: hit AND i know he's you're a fan of his
Speaker 1: because he's a second.
Speaker 2: Baseman you, know the one thing about teams that The
Speaker 2: reds are going to see tonight is they're going to
Speaker 2: see a lot of guys play their tails off because,
Speaker 2: hey this is their shot at the big. Leagues and
Speaker 2: if you're not careful with a lineup like The giants
Speaker 2: have and you don't take it, serious And i'm sure
Speaker 2: The rens. Will they got their best picture out there,
Speaker 2: tonight you know they can run into some. Trouble so
Speaker 2: you know what's strap it, On let's watch him. PLAY
Speaker 2: i can't.
Speaker 1: Wait, well what it will amaze you to say the
Speaker 1: toughest pitcher that he ever faced was a guy he didn't.
Speaker 1: Know and it's the same thing for a. Picture when
Speaker 1: you're pitching against the guy at this, level you don't
Speaker 1: know his, swing you don't know where his hotspots, are
Speaker 1: you don't know where where you can get him. OUT i,
Speaker 1: mean those are things you have to find out on your. Own,
Speaker 1: look you can get a scottery, port but it may
Speaker 1: not nationally apply necessarily apply to your stuff or your arm,
Speaker 1: slot how he sees the. Ball so a guy that
Speaker 1: you know who had really good, Successes, YEAH i threw
Speaker 1: him sliders. Away well maybe your slider isn't going to
Speaker 1: be something he can't, Handle so it's. WEIRD i do
Speaker 1: agree with you one, thing. Though this is the night
Speaker 1: of opportunity with all these guys getting a. Chance that's,
Speaker 1: rare and that's around the park With kruk and kahe
