1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: The Giants and the Mets. The Giants are home for 2 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:06,560 Speaker 1: a week and four, with the Mets starting tonight. I'm 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: John Miller with today's twenty three hour with the skipper 4 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 1: of the Giants W twenty three Tony Vicello and Tony 5 00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:18,639 Speaker 1: a change in the lineup for the first time. Patrick 6 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: Bailey is not doing the catching, and I think we 7 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: all kind of saw that one coming with the game 8 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: today after yesterday and the left handed going for the Mets. 9 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was a good matchup for Susak 10 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 2: with Peterson going. Also, everybody's getting their legs under him 11 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 2: after the road trip. The other option was, of course, 12 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 2: the day game after the night game in San Diego, 13 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 2: but you know, we've had a couple of unique off 14 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 2: days in the middle of and prior to the Padres series, 15 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 2: So I think at this point, you know, the guys 16 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: should feel good about where they're at physically, and then 17 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 2: we're anxious to see Sussack in action back there. Of course, 18 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 2: he came off the bench and finished the game cat 19 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: against the Padres, so I think it's kind of a 20 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,119 Speaker 2: good little cheater head start for him that he's been 21 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 2: out there. But this will be his first major league start. 22 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 1: And he's catching Robbie Ray now. Robbie Ray. Now, they 23 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: had a chance to work together in the spring, so 24 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 1: he certainly is familiar with him. 25 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think the cool thing about Robbie is 26 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 2: he's kind of got, you know, just a relentless confidence 27 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: and truly and undying confidence. So circumstances are out of 28 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 2: his control. I don't think ever really bother him. He's 29 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 2: always going to be the competitor that he is. And 30 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 2: I think regardless of that you mentioned it before, those 31 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 2: guys have formed a relationship by you know, working the bullpen, 32 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 2: working games on our own field, and then work you know, 33 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 2: when we played the spring training games. 34 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: The Giants in the match is game one of a 35 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: four game series. More Tony Voytello next now more twenty 36 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: three hour with the skipper of the Giants and Luis 37 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: Arise kind of broke out yesterday a three hit game, 38 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: including a big hit against one of the toughest left 39 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: handers in the league more hone. 40 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, and stood in there well against Miller, 41 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 2: arguably the best closer. And then Paveta, I think we 42 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: got the raw deal of a second start after a 43 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 2: really rough start. He had against the Tigers. I think 44 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: he only lasted three innings and he had his stuff 45 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 2: going yesterday, especially the fastball, and Luis just had a 46 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 2: different look in his eye. I think he was determined 47 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 2: to get some action. He did have an RBI or 48 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: earlier in the series, but it struggled a little bit. 49 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: And he's one of those guys. I've said it before. 50 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 2: He's a joy to be around at the ballpark. He's 51 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 2: got the same energy every day. But I do think 52 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 2: he's got a dialed in focus that he's always going 53 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 2: to find a way to get. You know, really what 54 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 2: is his by the end of a series, whether it's 55 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 2: just getting on base, driving in runs, or collecting hits. 56 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 2: He's got a unique ability in that batter's box. 57 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: In the game yesterday, a couple of runs score and 58 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: it's been well talked about and a lot of written 59 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: about since yesterday's game. A couple of throats from Matt 60 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: Chapman and neither one caught by Casey Schmidt, And from 61 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 1: the booth where I was watching, I was surprised both times. 62 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: I thought, well, if he'd come off the bag to 63 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: catch that ball, maybe he doesn't get it out, Maybe 64 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: he does with a swipe tag or something, but the 65 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: ball doesn't go flying down the line or over to 66 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 1: the sidewalk and a run scorer. How did you look 67 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: about that? What should happen on that kind of a play? 68 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's two different plays that occurred. In 69 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 2: one is what I mentioned on the radio this morning 70 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 2: is just the most common problem of anybody over there 71 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 2: is to stretch too early. That was the latter. The 72 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: former you're talking about, I think if he gets his 73 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: body in a position which probably again he might have 74 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 2: reacted a little too early, if he takes his body 75 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: to the ball, not just his hand, and he's in 76 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 2: a safer and also better position to secure the ball 77 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: and just catch it. So I think it's a little 78 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 2: different way of what you're saying it just approach to 79 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 2: the ball could have been better. But now we've got 80 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 2: a teaching point. And that's one more thing in addition 81 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 2: to really probably thirty forty things we've talked about with 82 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 2: our offense, whether it's hitting, base running, or defense, just 83 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 2: those guys getting better at areas that we need to 84 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 2: and talking about a guy that's learning how to play 85 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 2: a position, he and washed it out there today, talk 86 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 2: through each of those put in their daily work and 87 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 2: you know, something we didn't like that happened, but something 88 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 2: we look to improve on. And then as far as 89 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 2: kind of all the drama you mentioned, I think that's 90 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 2: kind of more for writers and Twitter and fans to 91 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 2: go back and forth because a guy cussed or used 92 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 2: a naughty word, But at the end of the day, 93 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: as far as in our locker room, our offices, or 94 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 2: clubhouse or the batting cages, there's nothing to it other 95 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 2: than a talking point for our guys to either joke 96 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 2: about or to emphasize the fact that we all want 97 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: to win and we're going to hold each other accountable 98 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: to that. 99 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: So here we go. It's game one of the four 100 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: game series, Giants Mets, and that's the Tony Vtello show 101 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: for it today.
