1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:01,160 Speaker 1: All right. 2 00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:05,080 Speaker 2: It is Friday, August twenty second, and the Yankees were 3 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 2: taking on the Red Sox in game two of a 4 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 2: Big four game set. Max Freed was on the mound 5 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 2: trying to get the Yankees back into the win column. 6 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 2: I got Frankie Baseball here tonight with me to talk 7 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 2: about it. My recap, your reactions coming up next. This 8 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 2: is pinstriped territory. Wanted to cook at all, Frankie. Did 9 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 2: you see the game? Didn't it suck? It sucked? My goodness, Franky, 10 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 2: my goodness. The Yankees once again fall silent with the bats. 11 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 2: I don't know about you, man, but to me, the 12 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 2: highlight of this game had nothing to do with baseball. 13 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:46,919 Speaker 2: It was a squirrel running on the field and attacking 14 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 2: a Red Sox player. Your thoughts, Yeah, that squirrel. 15 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 3: I was already thinking maybe on days where Stanton can 16 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 3: play the outfield, we can have the scroll out there. 17 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 3: He's already way faster, more mobile. Just what happened? 18 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 4: Like? 19 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 3: Why is this team so bad against opponents we need 20 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 3: to beat against our division rivals, against great teams? Why 21 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 3: do we struggle and yet we can beat the Rays 22 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 3: no problem? We can hit nine or runs against the 23 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 3: freaking race. But here in a series we have to 24 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 3: win or at least be competitive against against the Red Sox. 25 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 3: We're fighting for a wild card spot, both of us 26 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 3: here and to just like two, I guess yesterday wasn't 27 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 3: an egg, But yesterday it was just such an embarrassment 28 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 3: with all the hours, and then today just a complete 29 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 3: and total egg and wasting a great outing out of 30 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 3: Max Freed. I don't know. 31 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,680 Speaker 2: Well, if you really want a real answer, it's uh, 32 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 2: there's it's a multi pronged answer. One. I don't think 33 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 2: our manager gets us up for these games, or gets 34 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: I say us, the proverbial us, the colloquial us, the 35 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 2: the Yankees. I don't think that Boone rallies the troops 36 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 2: well enough. Also, I think that the team is not 37 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 2: assembled to play small ball in games like this where 38 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 2: you need to. It was everybody swinging for the home 39 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 2: run tonight. We got dub say the Hubris is so 40 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 2: upsetting sitting John Carlo playing wells and Volpie doing the 41 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,399 Speaker 2: same thing expecting different results as insanity. Need to win now. 42 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 2: And then we also got one from Howler who says, 43 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 2: at this point, I feel like we know what this 44 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 2: team is not a playoff contest. And then Shawnee Slime says, 45 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 2: because if we don't hit a home run, we do nothing. 46 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: You're not wrong. The offense tonight brutal. Three hits in 47 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: the game. And by the way, the Red Sox have 48 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: now passed the Yankees in the standings once again, and 49 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: it's not looking good. Let's get to the recap, Frankie, 50 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 2: what are we going to talk about other than the squirrel? 51 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 2: I guess it was okay, I mean. 52 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 3: A solid performance out of him. By the way, I 53 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 3: forgot to mention when you mentioned Boone. I forgot to 54 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 3: mention at the beginning of today's game. I guess they 55 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: were talking. He was talking to the media and he 56 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 3: dropped yet another it's all right in front of us 57 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 3: he dropped. That's when we knew this game was over 58 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 3: right there. I mean, Boom's right, somebody to fallow up 59 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 3: on boom? What's right in front of you? Like war, famine, destruction, 60 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 3: like you're firing a wall. 61 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 2: What is someone? 62 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 3: Should? 63 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 2: I know the answer? I know what's right in front 64 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 2: of us. It's this super chat from one of a 65 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 2: kind who says, bunch of losers, absolutely disgusting performance. Why 66 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 2: does anyone think this team will do anything in the postseason. 67 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 2: I haven't seen a lot of people suggest they will. 68 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: But the last non ale Central team this team beat 69 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 2: in a five plus game series was the Orioles in 70 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 2: twenty twelve. Thank you for the fifty dollars, super chat. 71 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 2: Let's go ahead and talk through this one, because classic 72 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 2: pitcher's duel for the first you know, six innings. I mean, 73 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 2: Max Freed was tremendous. Will spotlight him in a minute. 74 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 2: It's bad that two of my bullet points about this game. 75 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: One of them is that Ben Rice hit a single, 76 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 2: and the other one is that there was a squirrel 77 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 2: Volpi now after his zero for three, hitting two of nine, 78 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 2: which I believe was what he hit as a rookie. 79 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: So now the third year of Anthony Volpi and we're 80 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 2: just not seeing any improvement in that department. The umpires 81 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 2: not good tonight. Judge struck out on a bat in 82 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 2: which there were no strikes that should have like three 83 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 2: pitches called out of the strike zone. It was horrible. 84 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 3: I've never seen I'm sure it's happened, but I can't 85 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 3: remember ever seeing that in watching baseball. Three balls and look, 86 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 3: that's not why we lost the game, but it's just 87 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 3: stupid stuff like this. It's just like, come on, when's 88 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 3: this coming in? Bring bring abs in? Like this this 89 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 3: has to happen soon. 90 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 2: We've only got about five more weeks of baseball in 91 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 2: the regular season before ABS comes to baseball, because next 92 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 2: year it will be here. In the seventh inning, the 93 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 2: Red Sox took the lead off of Mark Lighter the bullpen, Frankie. 94 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 2: The bullpen is, as they say, cheat and once again 95 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 2: blew the lead or blew the game. We didn't have 96 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 2: a lead. We didn't even get a runner to scoring position. 97 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 2: I don't believe. Ninth inning, Volpi tried to get Duran 98 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: at second base. That was one of the dumbest plays 99 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 2: I've ever seen. You got a runner on second base, 100 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 2: ground ball the shortstop, and he throws to second base 101 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 2: to try and get throw. I mean, just take the out, dude. 102 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 2: That's one of the first things they teach you when 103 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 2: you're learning to be a shortstop is eyeball the runner 104 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: to get him to go back. You don't need to 105 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 2: throw behind the runner because then it makes it even 106 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 2: more difficult to get the back end runner, and so 107 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: you lost an out. And then a raw This Chapman 108 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 2: who all of a sudden is pitching like a twenty 109 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: five year old. Again, what does this guy do? I mean, 110 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 2: I mean he's constantly in the gym, but thirty seven 111 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 2: years old, still throwing one hundred plus miles an hour. 112 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: And he shut the Yankees down in the ninth inning. 113 00:05:55,680 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 2: And that's two straight losses. Only bright spot, Frankie. Devin 114 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 2: Williams threw the ball well tonight, two strikeouts in the 115 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 2: eighth inning, scoreless eighth inning. So Frankie talk me back 116 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 2: down from the ledge here. 117 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 3: No, I'm not. 118 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 2: There's nothing, frank he said, go ahead and jump. Frankie said, 119 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 2: there's not. 120 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 3: There's no reason to live. Oh my god, he jumps. 121 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 3: I got nothing. What is their positive to say about 122 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 3: this team? 123 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: What is there? 124 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 3: Yes, we can beat the Rays, we can hit the 125 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 3: nine home runs and whoopie do all that. But in 126 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 3: games that we absolutely need to win, it's another pathetic 127 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 3: outing by this team. The vaulty. I just screaming to 128 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 3: you about the vaulty thrown a second like that. That 129 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 3: might be Maybe it's I was telling you. Maybe it's 130 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 3: because it's the most recent, but I can't remember being 131 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 3: more pissed off by Bulpy than that than that play. 132 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 3: It's it's just such such a stupid brain. Just throw 133 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 3: it to the right. But how hard is that? 134 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: It's so just throw up first, what fundamentals. It's fundamentals 135 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,559 Speaker 2: and and and it. It's the same thing that with Wells. 136 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 2: He got your doubled off. You're supposed to freeze on 137 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: a line drive, you know, it's fundamentally. This is what 138 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 2: we mean when we say fundamentals, the little tiny things 139 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 2: that make up a baseball game, all the little tiny moments. 140 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 2: There are things that you're just supposed to do, and 141 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: the Yankees don't do them. Well, let's move on talk 142 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 2: about Max free because he was a positive tonight. I'm 143 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 2: go ahead and put Frankie back on the screen here. 144 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 2: So Frankie, sorry about that. We cut you off. So 145 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 2: six shutout innings. I thought the difference for him was 146 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 2: the curveball tonight. He was throwing it for strikes. He 147 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 2: was getting swings and misses. He had nineteen swings and 148 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 2: misses tonight, Frankie. So that's a good sign if the 149 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 2: Yankees somehow make the playoffs. Max Freed, if he pitches 150 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 2: like you did, tonight. He should be okay as long 151 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 2: as the Yankees can score. It's just crazy how they 152 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 2: go from, you know, fourteen home runs in two games 153 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 2: to now the offense being dead for two straight. That's 154 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: what happens when you rely on the home run. That's 155 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 2: why we say you shouldn't do it. But he Freed 156 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 2: tonight was able to get deeper into the game, and 157 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 2: then he had been. He threw ninety nine pitches, sixty 158 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: three strikes, six shutout innings, three walk, seven strikeouts, got 159 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 2: the Eer at three point one four. He needed a 160 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 2: game like that badly. Any thoughts on Max Freed. 161 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 3: As you mentioned, just something he desperately needed. It has 162 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: been a rough ever since the blister. It has been 163 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 3: a rough couple months for Freed here. But he just 164 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 3: did terrific tonight. Most importantly, he kept Roman Anthony in check. 165 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 3: I am just getting I was telling some Red Sox 166 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 3: friends of mine who were working without territory, how fearful 167 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 3: I am about the idea of having face off against 168 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 3: Roman Anthony for fifteen years. Like just last night, I 169 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 3: felt more compdent watching Roman Anthony. Last night. I felt 170 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 3: the way that I never felt about Anthony bulpying the 171 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: entire time he's been here. I'm like, that guy's gonna 172 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 3: be a star, Like, yeah, you just see it, the 173 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 3: way the way he carries himself. That home run was 174 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 3: just I hated it, but it was a great moment 175 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 3: for him. But it was great to see for at 176 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 3: least one night, we didn't have to worry about Anthony 177 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 3: becoming the next Rocket Devers because Fred did such a 178 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 3: great job. It was great to see him go six. 179 00:08:58,120 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 3: I was worried it was only gonna be five because 180 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 3: I thought we need out of the pen, but it 181 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 3: was good to see him get that six ending and 182 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 3: then the bullpen just ruin it. But I'm not gonna 183 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 3: coplain about the bullpen to night, because when you don't 184 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 3: score any runs, that's not really I can't plain in 185 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 3: the bullpen too much on that when the offense can't 186 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 3: do anything. 187 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 2: But we got a comment here about Domingez. Yeah he 188 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 2: threw to third base. I mean the fundamentals, like that's 189 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 2: a that's the thing there too, you know, and talking 190 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 2: about Roman Anthony and we're on the pitcher spotlights. But 191 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 2: we're ranting a little bit tonight, so forgive us. But 192 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 2: when you think about Roman Anthony and you take a 193 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 2: look at him. He's younger than Dominguez, but he's got 194 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 2: that same kind of like relaxed feel about him that 195 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 2: Dominguez has. He's a better player than Domingez. I think 196 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 2: he's definitely got a better swing, but uh, you know, 197 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 2: I feel like that relaxed nature is something that Volpi's 198 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 2: never really had. He always seems to kind of rush 199 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: in the big moments, right, And uh, you know, I wish, 200 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: I wish that Anthony was a Yankee, but it is 201 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 2: what it is. We're gonna have to watch him against 202 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 2: us for at least the next decade, and they just 203 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 2: re signed him. We got a call or a comment here. Damn, 204 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 2: where is the killer instinct? Agree? Absent? Let's take some voicemails, 205 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 2: frank This one from Mary Beth. 206 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 4: And it's Mary Beth. You can't write this stuff up. 207 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 2: You can't make this stuff up. 208 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 4: This is just terrible. It's disgusting. 209 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 2: Okay. I once saw a movie, Frankie, where intelligent robots 210 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 2: enslaved humanity and used them as batteries to generate heat, 211 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 2: and then created like a simulated world that they all 212 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 2: lived in and didn't realize anything had happened. So I'm 213 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 2: pretty sure that a writer somewhere could come up with 214 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: a storyline where a baseball team didn't score any runs 215 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 2: in a game but appreciate the call. 216 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 3: Mary Beth, I once saw a movie in which like 217 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 3: a man's face was replaced with another man's face. 218 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,960 Speaker 2: And ah, what was that one called? 219 00:10:59,080 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 3: It was called face. 220 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 2: I once saw a movie about this bus that had 221 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: to keep its speed above fifty five miles an hour 222 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: and it couldn't lower its speed or else it would 223 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 2: blow up. I can't remember what it was called. Here's Brian, 224 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 2: what's going on? 225 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: Derek watching this game tonight? And obviously just just this 226 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: season and everything. And I'm a big baseball guy. I 227 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: know you are obviously as well. You wouldn't have the show. 228 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: But I've been watching the Little League World Series and 229 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: it just got me thinking, man, for a hotter take. 230 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: You just see some of these some of these foreign teams, 231 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: international teams and stuff that come in, and how fundamentally 232 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:48,079 Speaker 1: sound they are, and just how they listen to their 233 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: coaches and respect their coaches and the emotion and how 234 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: hard they play even in Little League compared to guys 235 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: like Austin Wells, constantly making base running errors, silly mental mistakes, 236 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: and not having their head in the game. I just 237 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: wanted to hear what you thought of this. I was thinking, 238 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 1: what if the Yankees for their possible next coach, What 239 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: if they went out and got one of these, uh, 240 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: highly touted Japanese coaches. Man. I know there might be 241 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: a small language barrier, but they're known for being fundamentally sound. 242 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: They always get a lot of respect from the players, 243 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: and uh, I don't know. I just think they need 244 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: to change something up and the fundamentals have gotten so bad. 245 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 1: Just want to hear your thoughts. 246 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 2: First. First of all, great call, Brian. Who needs fundamentals? Man, 247 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 2: this is America. 248 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 3: I don't need to fundamentals. I can do it if 249 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 3: I want to throw. 250 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: Here. 251 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 2: We have the freedom to worship the home run ball 252 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 2: and forget about all the fundamentals that come along with baseball. 253 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 2: I thought for a second. His idea was, Hey, we 254 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 2: should replace the Yankees with one of these little league 255 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 2: teams from you know, one of these one of the 256 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 2: Japanese litt it hurts. Yeah, here's an idea from Michael E. Nine. 257 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 2: He says, fire everyone, I like it. 258 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 3: Again, What did you hurt? 259 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 2: We got a call here about John Carlos Stanton. 260 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 4: Hey, Derek, Danny from California. The game just started in 261 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 4: first inning. And then of course John Carlos not in 262 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 4: the outfield. Does he have ostio porosis or something we 263 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 4: don't know about. Why can't he play two or three 264 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 4: straight games in the outfield? We need his bat? 265 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 2: Oh man, ostio porosis. That's one I hadn't heard before. 266 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 2: Hey Derek, that's right, that's that's pretty good. Here here, 267 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 2: here's your got no legs uten days? If he plays 268 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 2: in the outfield, his legs will literally fall off. I mean, 269 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 2: he's just not going to survive. He played what three 270 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 2: games out there, and he mashed while he was in 271 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 2: the lineup, and then he had to sit for three 272 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 2: or four days. I mean it's just not worth it. 273 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 2: You got to play him every couple of days. Basically, 274 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 2: what should have happened is Aaron Judge should have been 275 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 2: prepared to play for or if they should just play 276 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 2: him in the outfield and say, hey, how about don't 277 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,080 Speaker 2: even throw, you know, how about just lob it in? 278 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 2: How about we use the cutoff man. We got Jazz Chisholm, 279 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 2: who has too much arm for second base anyways, as 280 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,479 Speaker 2: noted by the seven Spectators, he's killed in the mezzanine 281 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 2: section this year. Maybe we could have him got a 282 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 2: little bit further towards right field and just have Judge 283 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 2: just kind of like just soft toss it to him 284 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: and then have him be the guy who throws. What 285 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 2: are your thoughts on this whole situation, The Yankees mismanaging this? 286 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 3: I think they are, of course, like they mismanage every 287 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 3: other freaking thing that goes on. I'm amazed that Stanton 288 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 3: has been able to play this many games. It hasn't 289 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 3: been many, but I am shocked he's not injured himself already. 290 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,880 Speaker 3: It's just but somehow he's he's gotten out there and 291 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 3: at least he's been hitting home runs for the most 292 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 3: part for us. But yeah, it's it's tough seeing it 293 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 3: out there. But yeah, sure bring Jazz is turning in 294 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 3: the Chuck Nauback all of a sudden, Like I'm worried 295 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 3: that Keith Almans, you know, the keep Alman's gonna get 296 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 3: hit up at this point. Just it's it's it's just 297 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 3: a this whole defense suck. The whole team is bad. 298 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 3: I can't stand watching this team. What about the season end? 299 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 3: Bring on the Necks. 300 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 2: Mike and several other people have noted that the movie 301 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 2: I was referring to is called Speed, obviously, which is 302 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 2: why I used the word speed about three times in 303 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 2: the description. That's actually a Simpsons reference. It's a I 304 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 2: was holding. I was quoting Homer Simpson. Uh, you know what, 305 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: let's just go to DraftKings and then we'll wrap the 306 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 2: dog days of summer. 307 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: Men. 308 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 2: It's time for the boys of Summer to kick things 309 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 2: into gear, and the best way to cash in on 310 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 2: your baseball IQ is with DraftKings Sportsbook.

I watched the game on my 333 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 2: back porch in my VR headset because I wanted to 334 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 2: experience this one on like an IMAX size screen, and 335 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 2: I couldn't have picked a worse game other than the 336 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 2: fact that the the VR battery doesn't last a long time. 337 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 2: So luckily it was a quick game and I was 338 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 2: able to pretty much watch until the ninth inning. I 339 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 2: still had thirty percent of my battery left, which I 340 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 2: was worried about, But Duchess sat just inside the door 341 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 2: and and just protected me the whole time. So, Frankie, 342 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 2: any any final thoughts here as we prepare for a 343 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 2: day game after a night game where we have to 344 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,479 Speaker 2: get up and do this all over again. 345 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 3: Two questions. One is there any chance that we split 346 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 3: the series? And two does it even matter? 347 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 2: No? I really, I look, I think that even if 348 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:41,640 Speaker 2: the Yankees make the playoffs at best, at best they're 349 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 2: a wild card team that gets bounced in the second 350 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 2: round like they might win a wildcard round. They're not 351 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 2: getting by the DS, right, They're not. They just don't 352 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 2: beat good enough teams. 353 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 4: Right. 354 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 2: If if you somehow get to play the Guardians in 355 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 2: the first round in the wildcard round or something, you know, 356 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 2: but it's probably not gonna have you probably have to 357 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 2: play somebody who gonna kick your ass, you know. And 358 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 2: I'm just not feeling confident, and I think that, you know, 359 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:08,120 Speaker 2: in early October, we'll be releasing the post mortem, which 360 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 2: is if you're new to the channel, every year we 361 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 2: release like a Halloween themed like death themed video about 362 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 2: the Yankees and what went wrong. It's always got a 363 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 2: big tombstone on the thumbnail, so look forward to that 364 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 2: coming to you in early October. 365 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 3: You can upload it now for crying out loud. 366 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 2: Last year, I put out the Five Yankees who Won't 367 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 2: Be Back, which I always released when the season is over. 368 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 2: I put it out after Game three of the or 369 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 2: Game four of the Alcs when the when the Guardians 370 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 2: came back and won that game, because people were like 371 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 2: freaking out and I was like, here, here's something so 372 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 2: you don't like, you know, just just to keep you busy, right, 373 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 2: to free your mind of your intrusive thoughts. So we 374 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 2: put it days but I was mostly right. I think 375 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 2: four out of five or something like that. But anyway, Frankie, 376 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 2: tough day for the Yankees. We're gonna wrap it up. 377 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 2: Thanks for joining.
