0:00:07.200 --> 0:00:12.399
<v Speaker 1>very special guest if Auto Lopez, shortstop for the Miami Marlins. Otto,

0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:15.480
<v Speaker 1>how are we doing? Just before we talk about your

0:00:15.520 --> 0:00:19.159
<v Speaker 1>season so far? Just six out of seven games you

0:00:19.160 --> 0:00:21.239
<v Speaker 1>guys have won? Now, what has been working for the

0:00:21.280 --> 0:00:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Miami Marlins within the last two weeks?

0:00:25.239 --> 0:00:29.040
<v Speaker 2>Hi? Hi, guys, what's up? I would say, what has

0:00:29.120 --> 0:00:30.240
<v Speaker 2>been working so far?

0:00:30.440 --> 0:00:33.720
<v Speaker 3>I was so many quality that bad that we haven't

0:00:33.760 --> 0:00:38.440
<v Speaker 3>take these couple of days and a should The defense

0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:43.760
<v Speaker 3>is good, the pitching, I mean, all the little details

0:00:43.800 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 3>that we put it into, like it's it's all working

0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:47.159
<v Speaker 3>so far.

0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:50.320
<v Speaker 2>So we feel pretty good what we've been doing. Our

0:00:50.400 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 2>work at the field. Uh.

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:56.120
<v Speaker 4>You know, you're coming off a year where you struggled

0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:58.240
<v Speaker 4>a little bit against some left handed pitching, and now

0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:00.920
<v Speaker 4>this year it's gonna been a comple polar opposite.

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:05.399
<v Speaker 5>You are absolutely demolishing opposite sided pitching. What work did

0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:07.240
<v Speaker 5>you do over the off season to be able to

0:01:07.280 --> 0:01:10.399
<v Speaker 5>have such incredible numbers slugging over a thousand against last

0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:10.880
<v Speaker 5>ended pitching?

0:01:10.959 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 2>Just what's got into that change?

0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:17.039
<v Speaker 3>It's all about, like you just said, like the numbers

0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:21.360
<v Speaker 3>we'll see in Uh, I'll be able to sit down

0:01:21.440 --> 0:01:22.559
<v Speaker 3>and look at it like.

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:23.480
<v Speaker 2>Where I had to be.

0:01:24.200 --> 0:01:28.039
<v Speaker 3>I had to be better like work on those details

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:31.440
<v Speaker 3>and like right now, like I'm working like a lot

0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:36.560
<v Speaker 3>of more angles machines, like seeing different angle for a

0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:41.360
<v Speaker 3>match up kind of like the lefties and pitching side.

0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:44.760
<v Speaker 3>And I would say, is have me give me like

0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:49.920
<v Speaker 3>more comforting off the plate facing those lefties and even

0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:53.560
<v Speaker 3>like sigh arms and I feel pretty good so far.

0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:55.640
<v Speaker 3>What like the work that I did in the off

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.440
<v Speaker 3>season and what I'm showing now.

0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:03.760
<v Speaker 6>When you do those different angles from different machines and stuff,

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Speaker 6>are you going more for a feel in the box

0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:10.440
<v Speaker 6>or is it more a visual thing? What what makes

0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:12.440
<v Speaker 6>you feel more comfortable? And why why do you do

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:13.600
<v Speaker 6>those specific things.

0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:16.640
<v Speaker 2>It's a little bit about though, of course, the feeling.

0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:20.080
<v Speaker 3>It's when you practice and you want to feel good

0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:23.720
<v Speaker 3>and actually like see like different angles and make you

0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:29.160
<v Speaker 3>like get your feeling of being comfortable on facing like

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:32.040
<v Speaker 3>different angle. So like what I'm trying to do is

0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:35.480
<v Speaker 3>no matter where I put the machine or where angle

0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:39.040
<v Speaker 3>what I would I be facing. I just trying to

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 3>like just feel comfortable and feel the position that I

0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:45.120
<v Speaker 3>can be strong and swing alto.

0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:47.959
<v Speaker 1>Another big change for you this season is the bad speed.

0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:50.800
<v Speaker 1>It's it's way up at like two or three miles

0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:54.120
<v Speaker 1>an hour quicker. You're hitting for more power, which I'm

0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:55.799
<v Speaker 1>assuming definitely has to do with the bad speed.

0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:56.800
<v Speaker 2>What would you attribute to that?

0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:58.839
<v Speaker 1>I know you guys use something called the stack bag,

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:00.919
<v Speaker 1>if you can maybe talk about that a little bit.

0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Who introduced that to and and how much of the

0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:05.000
<v Speaker 1>help is that actually?

0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:07.359
<v Speaker 2>When then when you can translate onto the field.

0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:12.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, the stag has been uh I would say the

0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:18.399
<v Speaker 3>Applaus for us. Joe there, our director hitting coach, he

0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:19.960
<v Speaker 3>he was the one bringing this.

0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Spind training and.

0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:27.399
<v Speaker 3>I say it has to make a huge different of

0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 3>my vellows the swing. But yeah, it has been a

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:34.600
<v Speaker 3>lot of help to like just uh maintaining those feeds

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:39.080
<v Speaker 3>on and being comfortable swinging on like on the games

0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:42.960
<v Speaker 3>because it's a little bit different because you have to

0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 3>see the ball and swing hard as you can, but

0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 3>like a Perticio Percisio spot, you.

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 2>Know, uhlo I will follow up on that.

0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:55.960
<v Speaker 5>Another sort of innovative thing that the Mardels have incorporated

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.720
<v Speaker 5>is using these I guess lighter balls or software balls

0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:02.720
<v Speaker 5>should say, for batting practice. When I first heard, I

0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:04.600
<v Speaker 5>thought it was a little bit peculiar, just because you know,

0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:06.600
<v Speaker 5>once you do face a real baj lely basedball and

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 5>you get jammed a little bit's gonna feel a little

0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 5>bit of a shock to your hands.

0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:12.560
<v Speaker 2>And how how do you feel about these.

0:04:12.360 --> 0:04:14.320
<v Speaker 4>You know, different sort of balls being used during batting

0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:15.440
<v Speaker 4>practice versus a real game.

0:04:16.360 --> 0:04:20.359
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, like it move feels like incredibles.

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 3>Makes it makes it like a different and then the

0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:30.000
<v Speaker 3>real ball. So when you're facing those those small of

0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:32.760
<v Speaker 3>the balls, it's kind of like moves to the angle,

0:04:33.120 --> 0:04:36.720
<v Speaker 3>like it goes like right up and infusing thinking it

0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:41.320
<v Speaker 3>just it just makes it harder to have a gun deck.

0:04:41.480 --> 0:04:43.440
<v Speaker 3>And I would say, like that's what we're trying to

0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:48.120
<v Speaker 3>do here with the Marlins. Make a more realistic to

0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:50.599
<v Speaker 3>the game, so we when we get to the game,

0:04:50.640 --> 0:04:51.640
<v Speaker 3>it makes it easier.

0:04:52.440 --> 0:04:57.400
<v Speaker 5>So so regular balls they dive less than these balls.

0:04:57.640 --> 0:05:02.400
<v Speaker 4>It's like it's easier, it's easier to hit and every yeah.

0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:04.080
<v Speaker 2>Kind of not easier to hit because.

0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:10.160
<v Speaker 3>You know, but like the more harder you make the practice,

0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:13.320
<v Speaker 3>like that's how we see in it. The more hard

0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:16.279
<v Speaker 3>we make the practice, the more like games.

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:21.480
<v Speaker 6>So it would be helpful whenever you're facing a guy

0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:24.000
<v Speaker 6>that has a lot of ride on his fastball, because

0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:27.680
<v Speaker 6>in your mind, when you're seeing a regular baseball, your

0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:29.640
<v Speaker 6>mind is telling you usually it ends up at a

0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:33.000
<v Speaker 6>certain spot. But some guys have better carry. So you're

0:05:33.040 --> 0:05:35.720
<v Speaker 6>able to raise your eyesight and you can practice that

0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:38.800
<v Speaker 6>almost trick your mind because you have to swing on

0:05:38.880 --> 0:05:41.040
<v Speaker 6>top of some of those you think get on top

0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:42.840
<v Speaker 6>of the ball, correct, right, That are some of the

0:05:43.000 --> 0:05:44.560
<v Speaker 6>vocabulary when there's the guys that ride.

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:47.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's it's kind of like what you say, but

0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:50.680
<v Speaker 3>like what it does is it has the ride, but

0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:55.200
<v Speaker 3>with with doseball that they're so much lighter than the

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:58.320
<v Speaker 3>regular ball, so it has more spin. So uh, it

0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:03.880
<v Speaker 3>just make your your swing, like we'll say the regular

0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:07.080
<v Speaker 3>buzz just ride a little bit or like less than

0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:10.839
<v Speaker 3>what you're thinking, but you exaggerate a little bit more to.

0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:14.080
<v Speaker 2>Swing off be on top. So when the game was happening,

0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:16.960
<v Speaker 2>I know, when you're in the game, like.

0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.360
<v Speaker 3>You're not thinking about that, but like your train your

0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:22.840
<v Speaker 3>mind to just get on top or like depends on

0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 3>what phase, what picture you're going to face that day.

0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:28.640

<v Speaker 2>Thank you. See geek altho.

0:07:26.760 --> 0:07:30.360
<v Speaker 4>How would you discover evaluate your season defensively, I'm curious.

0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 4>So we're obviously all used to you being one of

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:34.960
<v Speaker 4>the better defensive shorts ups in Major League Baseball. You're

0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:37.160
<v Speaker 4>still grading out tremendously well, but it just feels neither

0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 4>are a couple more plays than there were last year,

0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:41.120
<v Speaker 4>or maybe you didn't get to How.

0:07:41.000 --> 0:07:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Would you evaluate your defense this year? I would say

0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:45.080
<v Speaker 2>it's been good.

0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:49.080
<v Speaker 3>I know I've been working like more than a little

0:07:49.080 --> 0:07:53.440
<v Speaker 3>details that be put it like arrows and stuff, but

0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:54.680
<v Speaker 3>like I will.

0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Viothering my stuff to more.

0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:00.640
<v Speaker 3>See what I did and see what I can work

0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:03.800
<v Speaker 3>for and like seeing the past what like I did

0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:07.360
<v Speaker 3>wrong and more get better this year. So what I'm

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:10.880
<v Speaker 3>training is like right now, like I go early in

0:08:10.960 --> 0:08:14.240
<v Speaker 3>the game, I go early practice and just work on

0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:17.360
<v Speaker 3>those those little things like it makes it like like

0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 3>we're doing in the cage, like make it like harder.

0:08:21.000 --> 0:08:24.200
<v Speaker 2>So in the game too, it became a little bit easier.

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:27.560
<v Speaker 1>What's the toughest part of the transition that you had

0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:29.720
<v Speaker 1>to make going from second base to shortstop? But what's

0:08:29.720 --> 0:08:32.920
<v Speaker 1>the biggest thing you took away from that? What was

0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:35.400
<v Speaker 1>the toughest part of it? And overall, just what's your

0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:36.480
<v Speaker 1>comfort level at the position.

0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 3>Right now, I have to throw harder. I have to

0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:43.480
<v Speaker 3>throw harder and move a little bit more my feet.

0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:46.760
<v Speaker 2>So it's just those two changes that I've been just

0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:47.959
<v Speaker 2>changed so far.

0:08:49.240 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, you and you and X up the middle are

0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:55.439
<v Speaker 6>two of the best in the league defensively and offensively.

0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:59.440
<v Speaker 6>Obviously when you when you combined, how much did playing

0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:03.439
<v Speaker 6>with him in twenty twenty five help with the the

0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:09.240
<v Speaker 6>I guess the connection or the feel with him, how

0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:11.559
<v Speaker 6>much did that help you guys be better defensively?

0:09:12.920 --> 0:09:17.840
<v Speaker 2>It helps a lot being you player to the guys.

0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:21.400
<v Speaker 3>You would just spread like the last couple of years,

0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:25.040
<v Speaker 3>just rebuild a connection and it is great and great

0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:28.080
<v Speaker 3>so every where we do like we're trying to do

0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:30.839
<v Speaker 3>it together so like we can know each other a

0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:31.520
<v Speaker 3>little bit more.

0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:36.199
<v Speaker 2>So I would say it's pretty good so far. Now.

0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:38.760
<v Speaker 6>So I've been trying to come up with like a

0:09:38.840 --> 0:09:40.800
<v Speaker 6>dual name. I don't want to say Batman and Robin

0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:42.800
<v Speaker 6>because both of you guys are like the Batman. I

0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:44.320
<v Speaker 6>don't know, maybe like Batman and Superman.

0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:44.599
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:46.719
<v Speaker 6>If you have a better one, let me know, But

0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:49.880
<v Speaker 6>do you think that you two, you and X are

0:09:49.920 --> 0:09:53.920
<v Speaker 6>the best up, the in the middle, infielders, the best

0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:54.640
<v Speaker 6>in the game right.

0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:59.320
<v Speaker 3>Now, I would say so, like, I feel pretty comfortable

0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:03.560
<v Speaker 3>on who I have on my side, so I'll say

0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:09.040
<v Speaker 3>yes for myself and an next knowing that the work

0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:12.000
<v Speaker 3>that he's done like so far, it's incredible to see

0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:16.120
<v Speaker 3>that and just be part of that Louis Fabi.

0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:22.239
<v Speaker 2>Like seeing him growing and even like making plays. It's

0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:29.160
<v Speaker 2>I would say, to how you do it? Alto just a.

0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:31.000
<v Speaker 9>Little bit more than a couple of years ago, you

0:10:31.080 --> 0:10:34.079
<v Speaker 9>had been designated for assignment twice within a month, right

0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.600
<v Speaker 9>and now a couple of years later, you're sitting here

0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:39.440
<v Speaker 9>leading Major League Baseball and hits, you're tearing the cover

0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:42.679
<v Speaker 9>of the ball, and you are potential to be a National.

0:10:42.480 --> 0:10:43.680
<v Speaker 2>League All Star this season.

0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:46.280
<v Speaker 4>Because what does that feel like to know that you've

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:48.880
<v Speaker 4>come so far to potentially be a nationally All Star?

0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:53.680
<v Speaker 3>You just said, man, I come from so from so far,

0:10:53.800 --> 0:10:59.480
<v Speaker 3>and going back to those days, it's I remember like

0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:04.200
<v Speaker 3>it was tough. I even told myself that I couldn't

0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:07.120
<v Speaker 3>made it again. So when I got the change with

0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:09.440
<v Speaker 3>the Marlins, I would tell myself that I was the

0:11:09.480 --> 0:11:12.320
<v Speaker 3>only tent and I have to like take advantage of.

0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:13.040
<v Speaker 2>Them, And.

0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:21.360
<v Speaker 3>Oh man, I go flashback, and like I get emotional

0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:25.760
<v Speaker 3>because in that moment, nobody was there for like believe

0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:29.240
<v Speaker 3>in me. And so now that like I have put

0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:33.280
<v Speaker 3>so much work on and seeing what I've been done,

0:11:33.400 --> 0:11:37.719
<v Speaker 3>it's it's another type of emotion, you.

0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:40.959
<v Speaker 1>Know, Auto, you have a lot of people watching this,

0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:43.520
<v Speaker 1>a lot of Marlins fans who want to hear from me.

0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Why why should Auto Lopez be representing the Miami Marlins

0:11:46.360 --> 0:11:48.160
<v Speaker 1>in the twenty twenty six All Star Game this year?

0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:50.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, all the work that I've been putting in,

0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:52.719
<v Speaker 2>all the.

0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:58.880
<v Speaker 3>How the did this treat the how the team has

0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:01.440
<v Speaker 3>treated me, how defense by how cheering me.

0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:03.240
<v Speaker 2>It is something special.

0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:06.560
<v Speaker 3>I wish I wish I could just represent the Marlins

0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:09.720
<v Speaker 3>at the All Star Break, at the All Star.

0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:12.160
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be so fun.

0:12:12.720 --> 0:12:17.040
<v Speaker 3>I know this experience that I've been dreaming forever and

0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:18.160
<v Speaker 3>and I can't wait.

0:12:20.559 --> 0:12:23.440
<v Speaker 10>And I'm sure a J can can attest to this,

0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.200
<v Speaker 10>But this is one of you and X are one

0:12:25.200 --> 0:12:28.160
<v Speaker 10>of the better middle infields in Marlin's history, and a

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:29.839
<v Speaker 10>J was there for a lot of decord and the

0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:30.760
<v Speaker 10>Danniege of for Rea.

0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:33.319
<v Speaker 11>I think you guys surpassed them, maybe Hanley and Uglo

0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:37.400
<v Speaker 11>that could be the next step. Before we let you

0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:40.520
<v Speaker 11>go Auto, we have a couple of quick, rapid fire

0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:43.280
<v Speaker 11>questions for you if we got a couple of minutes. Well, first,

0:12:43.320 --> 0:12:44.599
<v Speaker 11>before we do that, when I ask you about the

0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:45.959
<v Speaker 11>World Baseball Classic.

0:12:45.640 --> 0:12:48.240
<v Speaker 2>This year play for team, can I dispose that experience?

0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:53.120
<v Speaker 3>Like, Oh, the experience was amazing, I would say, always

0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 3>saying right now every time the players asking me, uh,

0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:02.080
<v Speaker 3>they asked me yesterday too, and it's it was one

0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:04.520
<v Speaker 3>of the things that I just fired me on for

0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:09.360
<v Speaker 3>the season most like because the experience it was so

0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:13.120
<v Speaker 3>much like playoff games, even like when I played like

0:13:13.160 --> 0:13:16.559
<v Speaker 3>in dr like it was it was so emotional that

0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:20.439
<v Speaker 3>that it's just game ready, like screen training is a

0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:24.440
<v Speaker 3>little bit different because everybody's getting ready and but like

0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:26.040
<v Speaker 3>those game is.

0:13:25.960 --> 0:13:31.520
<v Speaker 2>More like competing, like you see pictures that you never phaze.

0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:34.760
<v Speaker 3>And and just compete against other countries.

0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:37.880

<v Speaker 3>the same thing.

0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:04.760
<v Speaker 2>Is the best field I ever play? And not because

0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:07.720
<v Speaker 2>it is my team, not because of that.

0:15:07.920 --> 0:15:13.800
<v Speaker 3>It's more like field like stadium, like I don't know,

<v Speaker 3>like something here, it's it's very fun to play.

0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:23.520
<v Speaker 2>And least favorite. I don't. No, I like them all.

0:15:25.080 --> 0:15:27.520
<v Speaker 3>That I liked less because this is a dream that

0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:32.280
<v Speaker 3>I've been dreamed to playing the big and play god.

0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:34.800
<v Speaker 6>So like, there was a field that I didn't like.

0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:37.800
<v Speaker 6>It was the new Atlanta Stadium because I didn't pitch

0:15:37.840 --> 0:15:41.040
<v Speaker 6>good there. I believes there, and I'm like, I don't

0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:43.840
<v Speaker 6>like that part. I like the old Turner field. So

0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:47.560
<v Speaker 6>that but of course, so like you know, you play

0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:49.760
<v Speaker 6>in the Big League, of course I like every field.

0:15:49.760 --> 0:15:52.240
<v Speaker 6>I'm in the big This is my dream, but my dream.

0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:54.320
<v Speaker 6>But when I kind of dissected a little bit more,

0:15:54.360 --> 0:15:56.960
<v Speaker 6>I was like, Nah, that new well, I don't even

0:15:57.000 --> 0:15:58.040
<v Speaker 6>know what that park.

0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:01.040
<v Speaker 3>If I don't hit good in one party, I might

0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:02.600
<v Speaker 3>be saying that one there you go.

0:16:03.160 --> 0:16:04.320
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, that's play for you.

0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:04.800
<v Speaker 2>Right now.

0:16:05.240 --> 0:16:07.680
<v Speaker 4>I was gonna say, he's just sitting everywhere, so it

0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:08.360
<v Speaker 4>doesn't help much.

0:16:08.720 --> 0:16:09.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to.

0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:11.320
<v Speaker 5>Compare the two answers after Auto gives says, I'm gonna

0:16:11.320 --> 0:16:11.720
<v Speaker 5>ask how.

0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:12.960
<v Speaker 2>They compare to A j is really quick.

0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:15.720
<v Speaker 5>We're gonna talk about the clubhouse food on the road.

0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:18.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm not gonna let you talk about the Marlin Stadium anymore.

0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Clubhouse food on the road.

0:16:19.400 --> 0:16:22.000
<v Speaker 5>Who has the best clubhouse food in Major League Baseball?

0:16:24.320 --> 0:16:34.760
<v Speaker 3>No, the clubhouse, I say stuff, because all of them

0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:41.400
<v Speaker 3>has been good. I like New York, but the Yankees one, okay,

0:16:41.960 --> 0:16:45.400
<v Speaker 3>I know the chef to uh oh okay, well and.

0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:54.600
<v Speaker 2>Far of marlings to. I mean there's so many, but.

0:16:55.560 --> 0:16:56.960
<v Speaker 1>Like the Yankees.

0:16:57.040 --> 0:17:00.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, we went one time this year, so right,

0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:02.480
<v Speaker 3>but I know that raff.

0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:06.000
<v Speaker 2>It's one of their friends in the RS. So he

0:17:06.560 --> 0:17:09.520
<v Speaker 2>when I man, I was like, oh, you work here

0:17:09.560 --> 0:17:10.680
<v Speaker 2>and get trate as well.

0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:14.280
<v Speaker 6>It's do you know why it's the Yankees because they

0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:15.199
<v Speaker 6>do that on purpose.

0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:17.320
<v Speaker 2>They have all that good to get there.

0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:19.720
<v Speaker 6>They try to get you fat so the next day

0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:23.760
<v Speaker 6>you're playing Fuggers. They have the best food in the league,

0:17:23.800 --> 0:17:26.119

0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:30.880
<v Speaker 2>Different you were there too, so you know, yeah, I know.

0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:34.040
<v Speaker 6>I playing there, I would leave there fifteen pounds heavier

0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:37.160
<v Speaker 6>because they got all the stuff there. It's a tactic, man,

0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:38.840
<v Speaker 6>I'm on there. I even told the Jeff last time

0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:40.120
<v Speaker 6>I was there, I was like, yeah, I can get

0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:41.760
<v Speaker 6>fat now. When I was playing here, I didn't eat

0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:43.080
<v Speaker 6>here because I know what you'all trying to do.

0:17:43.119 --> 0:17:45.000
<v Speaker 2>You know you know what I'm saying.

0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:47.000
