1 00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: Is this a great game or what with the Hall 2 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: of Famer Tim Kirkshin, I'm his son, Jeff Kirkshin, and 3 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: this I'm telling you right now, folks, is the most 4 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: exciting time of the baseball season. The final week of 5 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: the regular season. Pennett races are heating up. This is 6 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,240 Speaker 1: such a great time for baseball, right dat, Jeff. 7 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,279 Speaker 2: There are so many teams still in the mix, and 8 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 2: they're not just playing for a playoff spot, They're playing 9 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 2: for best record in the league. They're playing for a 10 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 2: home field advantage all the way through the postseason. And 11 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:42,159 Speaker 2: remember the final Sunday of the season. Every game starts 12 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,639 Speaker 2: at three point thirty Eastern time, so we have this 13 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 2: tremendous drama leading up for the rest of the day. 14 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 2: Nothing No regular season week is better than the final 15 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,319 Speaker 2: one in September. And of course that leads to the 16 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 2: greatest month in history, October, which means October baseball. 17 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: How about the Savannah Bananas. That is arguably I went 18 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: to see the Savannah Bananas. On a less serious note 19 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 1: here at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. Forty five thousand 20 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: fans engaged every minute, sold out crowd. Dad, This was 21 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: unbelievable to see the Bananas take on a major league ballpark. 22 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: They've been doing their World tour. They were so incredible. 23 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: Ryan Howard, Shane Victorino, we had Joe Blanton, we had 24 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: Jamie Moyer, all showed up to play play on the Bananas. 25 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: The energy was out of this world. But the number 26 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: one takeaway from the Savannah Bananas those kids can play. 27 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: They are incredible athletes. I know you saw them at 28 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: the very first stop of their world tour down in 29 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: Florida during spring training. Weren't they incredible athletes? 30 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 2: Well, that was the first thing that I was Those 31 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: guys can all play the game. I did an inning 32 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 2: on the air or a half an inning on the air, 33 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 2: and I told to play by play guy, this is 34 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 2: the dumblet Goo we like Beco, right, Biko. I told him, 35 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 2: this is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. And I 36 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 2: love it because it was entertaining. The people loved it, 37 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: family kids loved it, and the players could play. I 38 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 2: was a little confused, Jeff, because all the rules are different. 39 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: As you know, if there's you try to win every inning. 40 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 2: So when I came in with Beco, it was the 41 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 2: bottom of the fourth inning, and the visiting team was 42 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 2: scoreless in the top of the fourth, So the bottom 43 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 2: of the fourth starts and the first batter hits a 44 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 2: triple on the first pitch. The next batter hits a single, 45 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: and I'm like the color guy for the half inning, 46 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 2: and everyone runs off the field after two batters and 47 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: no outs because the bottom of the ended the inning 48 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 2: because they won the inning with two batters triple single, 49 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 2: And I have to say, what's going on here? I 50 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 2: couldn't even understand it. Then they explained to me this 51 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 2: is how it works. If you're leading at the end 52 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,399 Speaker 2: of an inning, you win the inning as well as 53 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 2: trying to win the whole game. I was fascinated by 54 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 2: what they were doing, and I think they got a 55 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: good thing going there. 56 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 57 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: Shout out to our friend Jesse Cole, who along with 58 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: his wife, started banana Ball. It's incredible. He's going to 59 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: be a guest on the show next year to talk 60 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: about their plans of twenty twenty five because he is 61 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: like the Walt Disney of baseball in my opinion, and 62 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: letting everybody know you're allowed to be a fan of 63 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: banana ball and baseball. They are two separate things that 64 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: are both equally as enjoyable in their own rights. You're 65 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: not going to offend the fathers of baseball. If you 66 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: like banana ball, think of them as two separate things. 67 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: They're beautiful in their own right. 68 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 4: Now. 69 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: You were supposed to join me on Saturday, but unfortunately 70 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: you had a prior commitment, a really really special one, 71 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: your fiftieth high school reunion. 72 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 3: Walter Johnson High School. 73 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 2: As you can see, I've got my hoodie here. Yeah, 74 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: Walter Johnson's fiftieth high school reunion. 75 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 3: It was great. 76 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 2: There were probably about one hundred and twenty five people there. 77 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 2: We had roughly five hundred in our graduating class. 78 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 5: It was so good to reconnect with a lot of people. 79 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 2: I had to make a very quick speech about who 80 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 2: Walter Johnson is was so I told everyone there and 81 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 2: they already knew he's the greatest pitcher of all time. 82 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 2: Four hundred and seventeen wins, one hundred and thirteen shutouts. 83 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 2: I ever tell you I went to Walter Johnson High School. 84 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 5: It's great. 85 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,239 Speaker 1: The takeaways for this week, as we mentioned at the top, 86 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: Pennett races final week of the Major League season. This 87 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: is a very exciting time. What are your takeaways right now? 88 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 2: Well, last week, Jeff, I did two games on the 89 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 2: radio for ESPN Radio. Tuesday night in San Diego, I 90 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 2: did the Padres and the Astros, and then next night 91 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: I did the Mariners and the Yankees in Seattle. 92 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 5: And Jeff, I've told you this a thousand times. 93 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: The greatest part about baseball is that every night you 94 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: go to a ballpark, you might see something that you've 95 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 2: never seen before. And I saw in my games two 96 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: things I've never seen before, and a third thing happened 97 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 2: I wasn't at the game that I've never seen before also, 98 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: so I'll quickly. 99 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 5: I'll make this quick. 100 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: And in the ninth inning of our game Tuesday night, 101 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 2: jose A L. T hit a ball off of his foot, 102 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 2: and that's a foul ball if it hits you in 103 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 2: the batter's box off your foot. 104 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 5: But the umpires didn't see it, and they it's not 105 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 5: a reviewable play. 106 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 3: So jose A L. 107 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 2: Tuovey was furious that they called him out when the 108 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: ball clearly hit his foot, and he took his shoe 109 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 2: and his sock off at a major league game to 110 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 2: show the umpire look at my swollen toe. The ball 111 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 2: hit me, can't you see this? And of course he 112 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 2: was ejected immediately from the game. I have never, in 113 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 2: forty five years covering baseball seen a player take his 114 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 2: shoe and his sock off at a major league game 115 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 2: to prove a point. 116 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, that's like shades of Steve Lyons 117 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: back when he took his pants off at first base. 118 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 4: You remember that one, Yes, I remember it. 119 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 2: And then there's an urban legend that he did that 120 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 2: on purpose. 121 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, but we'll leave that alone for the moment. 122 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 2: So the next night, the same night I wasn't there 123 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:33,239 Speaker 2: for this, Victor Roblaze of the Mariners attempted a steal 124 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: of home Jeff with the bases loaded and a three 125 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 2: to oh count on the batter and nobody out. 126 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 5: Three oh count. 127 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 2: He attempted to steal home, and I we went back 128 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 2: with the Elias. 129 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 5: Frank at the Elias and I went back. 130 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 2: We tried to find twenty five years where a guy 131 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 2: tried to steal home with the bases loaded and a 132 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 2: three to oh count, but nobody else, and we couldn't 133 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 2: find anything going back twenty five years after that. We couldn't, 134 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 2: you know, verify the count back beyond twenty five years. 135 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 2: Point is Jeff I got to the ballpark the next 136 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 2: night in Seattle. I asked everyone I've seen have you 137 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: ever seen that before? And everyone acknowledged never seen that 138 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 2: before in my life. And then that night, Wednesday night, 139 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: I do the game Yankees and Mariners, and this is 140 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: the biggest game of the season for the Mariners, and 141 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 2: Julio Rodriguez is up, is at third with the bases loaded, 142 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 2: nobody out, and they need to score a run here 143 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 2: first and third, Sorry, nobody out. Randy Rosarana strikes out 144 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 2: and the bat flies out of his hand, and Julio Rodriguez, 145 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 2: now leading off a third has to jump to avoid 146 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 2: getting hit by the bat. He did that, but then 147 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: he forgot where he was and got confused in the 148 00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 2: situation and just stood about fifteen feet off of base, 149 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 2: and the many act of the third base coach was screaming, 150 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: get back, get back to third, and they threw to 151 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 2: third and tagged about. So it was a strikeout, pickoff 152 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 2: double play because Julio Rodriguez forgot where he was on 153 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: the field. In a one run game, they're down by 154 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 2: a run and they ended up losing that game three 155 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,559 Speaker 2: to two. I have never seen that before. I checked 156 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 2: with people after the game. Have you ever seen anything 157 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 2: quite like that? 158 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 4: The answer was no. 159 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 6: Fight. 160 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 5: Also, on Tuesday night. 161 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 2: In Seattle, Juan Soto hit his fortieth homer of the year. 162 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 2: It was also his two hundredth home run of his career, 163 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 2: and it gave him a home run in all thirty 164 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: ballparks that all happened in the same game. One swing 165 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 2: led to forty two hundred and then thirty, which is 166 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: just amazing. I was surprised to hear that Albert Poohols 167 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 2: hit his fortieth homer to get to two hundred, just 168 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 2: like Sodo did. Jim Edmonds hit his fortieth homer to 169 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 2: get to two hundred, Andrew Jones hit his fiftieth homer 170 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 2: in a season to get to three hundred, and Nelson 171 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 2: Cruz hit his fortieth homer to get to four hundred. 172 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 5: I just assumed Soto. 173 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 2: Was the first guy ever to hit like a real 174 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 2: round number homer and get to an even rounder number 175 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 2: for his career. 176 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 3: But it's happened four other times. Does that surprise you 177 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 3: at all? 178 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 4: Yeah? 179 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I love the cemetery of forty and two hundred. 180 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: It just feels comfortable, right, But I also think, and 181 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 1: I don't want to put you on the spot here, 182 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: so I won't because this is an alias question. But 183 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: to me personally, two hundred home runs and to have 184 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: one in every ballpark, that's pretty impressive. Nonetheless, that seems 185 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 1: like a low number to be able to have one. Now. Granted, 186 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: of course he's played in both the American League and 187 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: the National League at his young age, but and that 188 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: is clearly what's helping this, But that's the low to 189 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: be able to reach that statistic as well. 190 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 2: Right, a twenty five year old guy has already hit 191 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 2: a home run in all thirty ballparks. 192 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 5: That's pretty hard to do. 193 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 2: And the only way it happens is A, you got 194 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 2: to be great, and B you got to get traded 195 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 2: a couple times or moved a couple times. 196 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 5: And that's what happened here, all right. A couple of things. 197 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 2: The Mets are fifteen and four in September, Jeff, and 198 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 2: they are going to make the playoffs. 199 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 4: They were nine and nineteen in May. 200 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 2: I do not know how they recovered to get to 201 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: this point, but they deserve a lot of credit. 202 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 5: To getting to this point. 203 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, on Sunday, the White Sox loss for the one 204 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: hundred and twentieth time, that's the most in the history 205 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 2: of the American League. And now they have at least 206 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 2: matched the sixty two Mets for the symbol of futility 207 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 2: in modern Major League history. 208 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 5: The Mets went. 209 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 4: Forty and one twenty and now. 210 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: The White Sox are going to unless say, win their 211 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 2: last six games, they're gonna finish with more losses than 212 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 2: the sixty two Mets, which is just awful. And last thing, 213 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 2: Luisa Rise we talk about all the time because he 214 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 2: never strikes out. He finally struck out Jeff one hundred 215 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 2: and twenty one consecutive plate appearances without a strikeout. And 216 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 2: Elie de la Cruz of the Reds, a great player, 217 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 2: struck out forty nine times in between Luisa Rise's strikeouts. 218 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 2: Think about that for a second. 219 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: That's unbelievable to think about. And Luisa Rise he is 220 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: the Ellie de la Cruz as of late, because for 221 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 1: a while we were talking about Ellie every week, and 222 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,719 Speaker 1: now we talk about Luisa Rise every week. These are 223 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: like our MVPs of the podcast. 224 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 2: Right well, speaking of the MVPs, Aaron Judge is going 225 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,959 Speaker 2: to win the MVP in the American League, and we're 226 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 2: gonna have an Aaron Judge feature later on in this 227 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 2: in the show, and the MVP of the National League 228 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 2: is gonna be show Hey Otani. And he locked it 229 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: up with one of the I believe the great single 230 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 2: game performance by anyone in the history of baseball. He 231 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 2: went six at bats, scored four runs, got six hits, 232 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 2: had ten RBIs, hit two doubles, and stole two bases. 233 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,439 Speaker 2: No one in the history of baseball has ever had 234 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 2: a day quite like that. Keep in mind, Jeff, no 235 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: one who's ever driven in ten runs in a game 236 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 2: has ever stolen a base in that ten RBI game 237 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 2: he did, he stole two. No one's ever stolen two 238 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 2: bases in a game in which they hit three home runs, 239 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 2: which is what he did. And most important, that remarkable 240 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 2: game got him to fifty to fifty fifty homers fifty steels, 241 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 2: first player in history to go fifty to fifty. It also, 242 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 2: of course, got the Dodgers into the playoffs for the 243 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:53,199 Speaker 2: twelfth consecutive year. But more important, it got Shohei O'tani 244 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 2: into the playoffs for the first time in his career, 245 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 2: and he had played the most career games of any 246 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 2: act player. 247 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 3: Without a playoff Berth. 248 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 2: So all of that happened in one magical night in Miami. So, Jeff, 249 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 2: just when you wonder can this guy do anything else 250 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 2: to astonish us, he goes out and does it. 251 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: And I am making a claim here, Dad, Am I 252 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: wrong to say that joey Otani doesn't have to do 253 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: much more to maybe be considered the greatest of all time? 254 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: Is Am I crazy to say that? 255 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 5: No? 256 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 2: And you're with the majority of people on this. I'm 257 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 2: going to make a couple cases here. First off, Willie 258 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 2: Mays is the greatest player I've ever seen because he 259 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 2: had six hundred and sixty homers, he won twelve Gold Gloves. 260 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 2: He's the greatest center fielder defensively of all time. For me, 261 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 2: he's one of the greatest base runners ever, and most important, 262 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 2: he did all of this for a twenty year span. Okay, 263 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 2: Babe Ruth is the greatest player of all time. Of 264 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 2: course I never saw him play, because he just completely 265 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 2: dominated his era like nobody else. And of course he 266 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 2: has as many career shutout seventeen as Pedro Martinez and 267 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 2: he did it for twenty years. Also, so longevity matters 268 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 2: to me, Jeff. So I'm not ready to call show 269 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 2: Heyo Tani the greatest player ever, but I have called 270 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 2: him for years the most remarkable player ever, and I 271 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 2: think there's a distinction there, and someday he might very 272 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 2: well be the greatest player ever because no one's ever 273 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 2: done what he's done. And I implore people, Jeff, please 274 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 2: make sure you understand what you're watching here with this guy, 275 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 2: because we've never seen this before and likely we will 276 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 2: never see this again, and that's why he's our game 277 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: changer for the week. 278 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: What do you have for Quirk gin Caesar kind of 279 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: the lighter, more fun side of Major League Baseball? 280 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 2: All right, Well, the Braves won a game last week 281 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 2: in which they scored nine runs and got four hits. 282 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 2: So they got four hits and scored nine runs on 283 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: four hits. First teams since nineteen hundred to do that. 284 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 2: Caleb Ort, relief pitcher for the Astros. He faced three 285 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 2: batters in a game, and he's had a really good year, 286 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 2: by the way, Jeff. He faced three batters, gave up 287 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 2: three home runs on nine pitches. So there are only 288 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 2: two players pitchers in history. Barisio Levera in twenty twenty 289 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 2: one and bj Rosenberg in twenty fourteen. To face three 290 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 2: batters in a game, only three and give up a 291 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 2: home run to all three that happened last week in 292 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 2: the major leagues, it just jumps off the page. Also, 293 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 2: Arcelo Zuna of the Braves drove in his one hundredth 294 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 2: run the other day. He had gone the previous nineteen 295 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 2: games without an RBI, so he was stuck on does 296 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 2: this sound odd to you, Jeff? He had ninety nine 297 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 2: and then he went nineteen games without an RBI, and 298 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 2: then he got number one hundred. Does that sound odd 299 00:15:58,040 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 2: to you? 300 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: It does sound odd? And when you factor in how 301 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: unfortunate this kind of sliding of the Braves has been. 302 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: Right now, it's now he needs to be hitting those 303 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: runs in to try to make it desperately into the 304 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 1: playoffs at the last second here for the Braves. 305 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 5: Right. 306 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 2: So, Billy Roguel in nineteen thirty four drove in his 307 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 2: hundredth run after a twenty game span without driving in 308 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 2: a run, So well, what Osuna did? Someone else has 309 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 2: actually done that taken even longer to get from ninety 310 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 2: nine to one hundred. Also, Ryan Pepiote pitcher for the Rays, 311 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 2: very good young pitcher, had an immaculate inning. Explained to us, Jeff, 312 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 2: what an immaculate inning is. 313 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: Well, that's clearly nine pitches one two three strikeout one 314 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: two three strikeout one two three strikeout. 315 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 2: Right, nine pitches, three strikeouts. That's an immaculate inning, all right. 316 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 2: A couple other strikeout notes, Jeff. Tyler O'Neill of the 317 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 2: Red Sox struck out four times in the game the 318 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 2: other day, for the sixth time this season. The record 319 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:09,199 Speaker 2: is seven by Dick Allen in nineteen sixty eight. He 320 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 2: was Richie Allen back then. So we will be monitoring 321 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 2: that last week just in case Tyler O'Neill has another 322 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: four strikeout game. And get this, Jeff, Saturday, six guys 323 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 2: struck out four or more times in a game, which, Jeff, 324 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 2: I completely understand. The pitching that these guys face today 325 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 2: is just so good, and they're swinging at home runs, 326 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 2: you're going to strike out a lot. So that tied 327 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 2: a record for most six strikeout guys in one day. 328 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,440 Speaker 2: And get this, Mark Viento's of the Mets went zero 329 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 2: for five in a game in which his team and 330 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:47,600 Speaker 2: you will like this only struck. 331 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 5: Out eight times. 332 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 2: So the Mets only struck out eight times in the game, 333 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 2: which is relatively low in this strikeout era, but five 334 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 2: of them were by the third baseman for the Mets. 335 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 2: So I checked the last time that happened, and in 336 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen, the Pirates struck out eight times and Garrett 337 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 2: Cole struck out five times and he's a picture, so 338 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 2: he went over five with five strikeouts as a picture. 339 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 5: We love that stuff. 340 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 1: I have a bit of a quark gin can I share, 341 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 1: of course. So I actually had this one and I 342 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: was really excited about it. And then Amy Green, who 343 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: is a listener of the podcast, contacted us Great Game 344 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: or what dot com and actually reiterated what I was 345 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: going to say on the show, So I have to 346 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: give her co credit on this one. Saturday September twenty first, 347 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 1: Mackenzie Gore faced Michael Bush the Gore versus Bush. How 348 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: great is that? 349 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 2: Now? 350 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: I know it's not Bush, it's b Us. I know 351 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: it's not quite accurate, but I thought you would really 352 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,199 Speaker 1: like that. And I have to give cro credit to 353 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 1: Amy Green. 354 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 5: Amy, I love you. 355 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 3: I can't believe I missed that. 356 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 2: And we've got the All President team coming up next month, 357 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 2: promise you. And that is so good. This is why 358 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 2: people out there, this is why I do what I 359 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 2: do for a living, Jeff. Is the Amy Greens of 360 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 2: the world recognize something like that and say, hey, this 361 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 2: is pretty cool. 362 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 3: Sorry I missed it. Love that you had it. 363 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 1: And I have another cork gin from Andrew in Vernon, 364 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: New Jersey who he was watching the Yankees game and 365 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: Judge hit his fifty fifth home run and Michael Kay 366 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: had noted during the broadcast that if the season ended today, 367 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: he would be the first ever player to finish the 368 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: season with fifty five home runs. That has never happened 369 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 1: in the history of Major League Baseball, that a player 370 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 1: finished the season with fifty five. So I went to 371 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: go fact check it nothing against Michael Kay. I wanted 372 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: to make sure, and yes it is true. But I 373 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: also found out that no player had ever finished the 374 00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 1: season with sixty two home runs until Aaron Judge did 375 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: it in twenty twenty two. So it just kind of 376 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: some fun. Cort Gins, were you there too. 377 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 2: I love it that people are recognizing these things. But 378 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 2: we know this, Aaron Judge is not going to stop 379 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 2: at fifty five. He will finish with more in the 380 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 2: last week. 381 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 1: This date in baseball history, what do you have for us? 382 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 4: Dat? 383 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 6: All right? 384 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 2: Well, Al Kaylin, and we mentioned last week one of 385 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,920 Speaker 2: my favorite players of all time got his three hit 386 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 2: number three thousand on this date in in nineteen seventy four, 387 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 2: Al Kayline, who's from Baltimore, got hit number three thousand 388 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 2: at Memorial Stadium in Baltimore off of Dave McNally. It's 389 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 2: just so beautiful how symmetrical baseball is, because, other than 390 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 2: maybe Tiger Stadium, the one place that al ka Line 391 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,640 Speaker 2: has to get hit number three thousand. 392 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 4: Is in Baltimore, and he did. 393 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 2: A couple guys played their final game on this date, 394 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 2: number one in nineteen eighty four. My favorite nickname ever 395 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,719 Speaker 2: and I've told this Jeff Doug Goosh, catcher for the 396 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 2: Padres g w os d Z. What is his nickname, Jeff, 397 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 2: I'm sorry you've forgotten already. Keyboard the eye chart. 398 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 4: The I chart. That's right, you put your hand over 399 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 4: your eye g w o. 400 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 6: D Z. 401 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 2: Doug Goosh played his final game on this date in 402 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 2: nineteen eighty four, and in nineteen ninety nine, Mark Langston 403 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 2: played his final major League game. Really good major league pitcher, 404 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 2: great slider, and a really good broadcaster too. So when 405 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 2: I was covering the Orioles Jeff in the late eighties 406 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 2: for the Baltimore Sun, Mark Langston was really good friends 407 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 2: with Bruce Hornsby. And you know how little I know 408 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 2: about music, but I met Bruce Hornsby at cal Ripkens 409 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 2: the night he broke the record for lou gerrit and 410 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:04,359 Speaker 2: I met Bruce Hornsby, who played the piano with Winfred Marcellus, 411 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 2: who played the trumpet. It was like unbelievable that the 412 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 2: national anthem before the game. 413 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 5: And I met Bruce Hornsby and I shook his hand. 414 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 2: He's got gigantic hands because he loves basketball and his 415 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 2: son actually played basketball at LSU. 416 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 5: Not the point. 417 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 2: The point of this is he was dear friends with 418 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: Mark Langston. So they went out one night in Baltimore 419 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 2: after an Angels Orioles game, and they came back to 420 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 2: the hotel and I think you'll appreciate this, Jeff. 421 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 5: And Bruce Hornsby's like. 422 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 2: In the height of his popularity and he's freaking great, 423 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 2: as we know. And there's a piano in the bar 424 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 2: and Bruce Hornsby sits down and plays and sings for 425 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,360 Speaker 2: everyone in the bar. 426 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 3: How great is that? 427 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: I love those stories of artists sharing their love of 428 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: music and performance for just when they can. And as 429 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 1: a long time piano buyer and singer myself, I'm not 430 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: on stage. I'm no Bruce Horne, not even close. I've 431 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 1: done that before and sat down at a bar and 432 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: played for friends, and it's nerve wracking to not be 433 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: in your comfort zone and just go up there and 434 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: do your thing. That's pretty cool. 435 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 6: Yeah. 436 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 2: I asked him if those giant hands help him play 437 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 2: the piano, and he said, oh, yeah, he goes, I 438 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 2: can reach every key with these giant hands. 439 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 5: How big my hands are? 440 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 6: Jeff? 441 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:22,640 Speaker 5: Never mind?

Okay, 446 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 2: we've got the league and lids. Jeff, get out your hat. 447 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 3: You got it there? 448 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 6: Yeah. 449 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, So we started with all thirty teams and we're 450 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: coming to a close here, and I've pulled out the 451 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: Oakland Athletics. 452 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 2: Well, This is very fitting, Jeff, because this is the 453 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 2: final week that the A's will play in Oakland. And Jeff, 454 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 2: for all you young people like you, trust me. In 455 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 2: the mid and late eighties, there was no better play 456 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 2: and early nineties, there was no better place to be 457 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:04,959 Speaker 2: than Oakland for a game. You know, that was before 458 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 2: they enclosed the entire stadium for football, where you could 459 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 2: see the mountains and the hills of Oakland in the background. 460 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 2: It was a spectacularly beautiful ballpark. 461 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 4: And the A's were great. The A's in. 462 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 2: Eighty nine absolutely wiped out the Giants in the Earthquake 463 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,640 Speaker 2: series in one of the one of the most dominant 464 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 2: performances I've ever seen. And in a minute, we're going 465 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,360 Speaker 2: to give you the all Oakland A's team, not including 466 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 2: Kansas City A's or Philadelphia A's, just the Oakland A's 467 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 2: and it's a pretty stout group. But one of my 468 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: favorite A's, Jeff, was Mike Diego, who was a little 469 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 2: second baseman. He's about your height, okay, and he had 470 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 2: great hands. He was a tremendous defensive second baseman and 471 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 2: he used to count to get better at second. He 472 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 2: used to count every hop that came to him, so 473 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,160 Speaker 2: as he's watching it, in order to keep his focus, 474 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 2: he would silently say to himself one, two, three, and 475 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,160 Speaker 2: that's how he would make sure he concentrated and catch 476 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 2: the ball as well as he did so in the 477 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 2: eighty nine World Series, Jeff, it's fifteen minutes before the 478 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 2: World Series game is going to start, and of course 479 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 2: the lights go out in the stadium because we've had 480 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:26,239 Speaker 2: an earthquake, and the a's are in the clubhouse and 481 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 2: it's pitch black and it's a dangerous situation. 482 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 3: So they evacuate the clubhouse. 483 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 2: They bring all the players out onto the field because 484 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,719 Speaker 2: that was the safer place to be in case the 485 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,359 Speaker 2: stadium classed down. 486 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 487 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,360 Speaker 2: Right, So Mike Diego's out on the field and this 488 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 2: is a really important lesson for all our young players, 489 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 2: and he realizes his glove, which was the reason he 490 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 2: played in the big leagues for over ten years. 491 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 5: He left his glove in the clubhouse. 492 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 2: And he goes back into the clubhouse and they're a 493 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 2: security guy saying, Mike, you can't go back in there. 494 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 2: It could be dangerous in there, and he goes, I 495 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,919 Speaker 2: don't care, and he goes through the clubhouse in pitch 496 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 2: black and finds his glove and brings it out with 497 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 2: him on the field because the glove was the most 498 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 2: important thing to him.

Jeff who's the first baseman for the 527 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 2: Oakland A's who hit all those home runs? 528 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: Well, I mean Mark McGuire. 529 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 3: That's it. 530 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna quiz you anymore. 531 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: Well anymore Jomby, right, Jommy really great too, not home 532 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: runs as well. 533 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 2: McGuire's the first baseman. Dick Green from those great A's 534 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 2: team seventy two through seventy four, he's the second baseman 535 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 2: or a few other really good ones. Third base was impossible, 536 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 2: impossible because I've got sal Bando, Eric Chavez, but I'm 537 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 2: going with Carne Lancford, although any of the three will do. 538 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 2: And by the way, Bruce Jenkins one of the great 539 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 2: baseball writers ever, one of the great columnist sports columnists 540 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 2: in history, and one of my best friends.

And 563 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 2: it wasn't Bert Campeniras. It was Harry Belafonte. Seriously, how 564 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 2: great is that? 565 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 3: I missed? 566 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: Thought what's the short stuff for the age, and instead 567 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 2: it was one of the great crooners of all the time. 568 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 2: All Right, That's why I have Bert camp and Airas 569 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 2: at Shortstop so I could tell that story again. 570 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 6: All Right. 571 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 2: The outfield is Joe Rudy, who was great in the 572 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 2: early seventies on those three peat champion teams. Ricky Henderson 573 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 2: greatest leads man ever and Reggie Jackson. How good is that? 574 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 2: And I've got Jose Canseco. Jose, don't make a mistake. Oh, 575 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 2: he is our designated hitter, and our pitchers are so 576 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:07,479 Speaker 2: so good. You got Dave Stewart, who won twenty games 577 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 2: four times with the A's Catfish Hunter Hall of Famer 578 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 2: favorite nickname via Blue MVP of the league in nineteen 579 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 2: seventy one. Last switch hitter Jeff to win the American 580 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 2: League MVP. He's a pitcher, so we don't even know 581 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 2: that he's a switch hitter, but he is. We have, 582 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 2: of course, the big threesome, Tim Hudson, Barry Zito, and 583 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 2: Mark Mulder. And how about these two relievers, Jeff Dennis 584 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 2: Eckersley and Raleigh Fingers unbelievable, all right. Eck, by the way, 585 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 2: was in nineteen eighty nine ninety he had more saves 586 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 2: than base runners allowed for a two year period. 587 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 5: Think about that for a second. And I told Eck 588 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 5: that stat and he. 589 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 2: Said, if anyone ever does that again, I'll kiss. 590 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 4: I said, Eck, that will not be necessary. 591 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 2: But He's right, so Dennis Eckersley and another Hall of Famer, 592 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 2: Raleigh Fingers is the other reliever. We could have gone 593 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 2: way more relievers, but two Hall of Fame relievers who 594 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 2: played significant portions of their career for the Oakland A's, 595 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 2: which has a great, great tradition. 596 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:23,160 Speaker 5: And I just want to complete it with Jeff. 597 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 2: I am really really sad that the A's are leaving 598 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 2: Oakland because some of the greatest fans I've ever been 599 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 2: around are Oakland A's fans. 600 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 5: There aren't a million on them any more. 601 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 2: I hope they do really well in Sacramento the next 602 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 2: few years and then in Las Vegas. But rip Oakland 603 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 2: because it was a great place to watch a Major 604 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 2: League game. 605 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: The Kirchin Quandary.

We have some really goofy ones. 610 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: But this one actually was created by your brother, my uncle, 611 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: the late uncle Matt, And this was a conversation piece 612 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: at Camden Yards. 613 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 5: Is that right right? 614 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 2: This is about twenty five years ago, he goes to 615 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 2: cam Yards with his wife and a couple of his 616 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 2: sisters in law, and Uncle Matt's voice tends to carry 617 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 2: as you remember, so he asks a hypothetical question of 618 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:25,479 Speaker 2: his wife and his two sisters in law about what 619 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 2: would you rather do, as they're sitting in a game 620 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:31,480 Speaker 2: at Camden Yard hit a home run off the warehouse 621 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 2: in the air, which still to this date, Jeff, no 622 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 2: one has hit the warehouse in the air in a 623 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 2: Major League game.

And then there were a couple 638 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 2: guys in the section who of course overheard this, and 639 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 2: they just turned around and said, ladies, you are totally wrong. 640 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 2: If you got a chance to hit a ball off 641 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 2: the warehouse, it'd be the first one ever to do 642 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 2: that to this date, you take the warehouse, So jeff, 643 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 2: what are you taking? 644 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 1: You know, speaking from the experience of a very seasoned 645 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: married man of two and a half years to my 646 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: lovely wife Emily, I feel like she will never let 647 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: me live it down if I don't take advantage of 648 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 1: a week. Emily's all always wanted to go to Europe, 649 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: to go to Italy, to go to Greece or England 650 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 1: or something, and we've never been there. And to be 651 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: able to go there all expenses paid, versus I get up, 652 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:15,839 Speaker 1: pinch hit situation, hit an amazing home run. But then 653 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: that's it. 654 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 2: It is about the feeling of doing something in an 655 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 2: athletic competition that no one has ever done before. Imagine 656 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 2: the feel off of your bat when you hit a 657 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 2: ball four hundred and fifty seventy feet whatever the heck 658 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 2: it is, and you would hit it to the opposite 659 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 2: field because you're a right handed inner, and so would I. 660 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I'm. 661 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 2: Taking the home run because I think it would. You 662 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,720 Speaker 2: could always go to Australia, but you could never hit. 663 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 3: A ball off the warehouse ever. 664 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 1: Again, our friends at Stratamatic, the market leader in sports simulations, 665 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: they did an amazing simulation. 666 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 4: For us this week. 667 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: And actually, if you use the code great Game twenty 668 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: at checkout, new customers to Stratumatic are going to get 669 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: twenty percent off all baseball products.

Initially, right off of the bat, 678 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 1: Babe Ruth. 679 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 7: Fifty four home runs in nineteen twenty nine home runs 680 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 7: more to sixty three home runs had he played for 681 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 7: the twenty twenty four New York Yankees. However, his batting 682 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 7: average drops almost seventy points from three seventy six to 683 00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:01,280 Speaker 7: three h seven in the twenty twenty four season. In Versely, 684 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,840 Speaker 7: Aaron Judge also had a really great year nineteen twenty 685 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 7: forty seven home runs compared to the fifty five he's 686 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,320 Speaker 7: had to date. In the twenty twenty four season, however, 687 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,439 Speaker 7: his batting average actually went up from three twenty three 688 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 7: to three thirty two in. 689 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: The nineteen twenty season. And Dad, this sparks the debate 690 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 1: right off the bat. Could Babe Ruth play in twenty 691 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,839 Speaker 1: twenty four, and at least according to our friends, it's stratamatic. 692 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 1: The answer is absolutely yes. 693 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 2: Look I'm in the vast minority on this, Jeff, but 694 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 2: being sixty seven years old and living baseball history every 695 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,359 Speaker 2: day of my life, Babe Ruth could play today. I 696 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 2: am absolutely certain of it. He was a fabulous athlete, 697 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:50,200 Speaker 2: great basketball player, dominated his era like no one's ever 698 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 2: dominated it. First player ever hit thirty forty to fifty 699 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 2: and sixty homers in a season. And I told you 700 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,320 Speaker 2: once that Burt Hawkins, who saw him play, Bert Hawkins, 701 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 2: great Bay baseball writer. 702 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:01,560 Speaker 5: When I asked him. 703 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 2: Hawk, who's the greatest player of all time? He said, 704 00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 2: buddy boy, I'll take Babe Ruth and you can have 705 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 2: the next three. That's how great Babe Ruth was at 706 00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 2: his time. But remember jeb bat, technology, softer baseball, gigantic 707 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 2: ballparks that he played in, and he still hit seven 708 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 2: hundred and fourteen home runs and fifty four home runs 709 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:29,839 Speaker 2: during the nineteen twenty season. I believe twenty twenty one, 710 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 2: back to back are the two greatest seasons any player 711 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:36,720 Speaker 2: has ever had. And Babe Ruth did it fifty four 712 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 2: in nineteen twenty and everyone said, oh, he'll never do 713 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 2: that again, and then in twenty one he hit fifty 714 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 2: nine homers. But it's interesting that his batting average drops 715 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 2: seventy points because again, in this era, it's really hard 716 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 2: to get a hit, but it's not that hard to 717 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 2: hit the ball out of the ballpark. So maybe that's 718 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 2: very much in keeping. Are you surprised it all that 719 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 2: Babe Ruth would hit more home runs today than he 720 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 2: did in nineteen twenty, No. 721 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 1: Doubt, not surprised at all, because that's the way the 722 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: game has gone. As you said, pictures are throwing harder, 723 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: but that means they're making more mistakes. I would say, So, 724 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 1: when they strike you out, they strike you out fast. 725 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,120 Speaker 1: But when they make a mistake, they make a mistake fast, 726 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 1: and it's more likely to lead to a strikeout or 727 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:23,759 Speaker 1: a home run in that matter. 728 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,240 Speaker 2: Right, And keep in mind, Jeff, Babe Ruth was hitting 729 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:32,280 Speaker 2: tape measure home runs in nineteen twenty, all through the twenties, all. 730 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,240 Speaker 5: Through in the early thirties. 731 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 2: And you know, I know a guy who does baseball 732 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 2: stats for a living. He said, someday we should have 733 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,919 Speaker 2: cut Babe Ruth open after his death to figure out 734 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 2: what the inside of his body look like. Where did 735 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:51,479 Speaker 2: that strength come from? Again, he was a big strong man. 736 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 2: He wasn't just some big fat guy who aai to 737 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 2: hot dogs and drank beer. He was a great player. 738 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 2: Net Jeff, what do you think about Aaron Judge? Going back? 739 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 3: First off, If Aaron Judge. 740 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 2: Shows up in nineteen twenty with that body at six 741 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,439 Speaker 2: seven twot eighty two, people would have looked at him 742 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 2: like who are you? 743 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,919 Speaker 3: And like from what planet did you come from? 744 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 2: And yet he hit fewer home runs in nineteen twenty 745 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 2: than he did in twenty twenty four. 746 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 3: Does that surprise you? 747 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 1: Well, maybe I think the only reason why higher batting 748 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 1: average in nineteen twenty maybe he just wasn't I'm not 749 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: saying he doesn't hit the ball far, because he hits 750 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: the ball far, but with those larger ballparks, maybe he 751 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 1: was getting on base more often and wasn't quite getting 752 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: the ball over the fence. But a higher batting average 753 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 1: nonetheless pretty cool. Nineteen twenty versus twenty twenty four playoffs 754 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 1: with Unfortunately, with Aaron Judge, they lost five less games 755 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: from ninety five to ninety and the Yankees would not 756 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: make the playoffs with a ninety win record, which is 757 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 1: just absurd to me. But in twenty twenty four, ninety 758 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,879 Speaker 1: five wins with Ruth on the team, they sweep the 759 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 1: Orioles in the Alds and then in the ALCS they 760 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 1: lose to the Guardians in seven games, but Ruth in 761 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 1: the playoffs three forty two five homers and six ribbies 762 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 1: in just ten games in the playoffs. 763 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 2: So to clarify, Jeff, if Babe Ruth played on the 764 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four Yankees, they would have won ninety five 765 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 2: games and gone to the to the Alcs. 766 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 3: Correct. 767 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 1: Yes, that's correct. 768 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:31,960 Speaker 2: But Aaron Judge goes to the twenty the nineteen twenty 769 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,959 Speaker 2: Yankees and they don't win the pennant. Again, only one 770 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 2: team per league went to the playoffs back then, but 771 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 2: they won ninety games. I mean that that's surprising to 772 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 2: be also so again, nobody loves Aaron Judge more than 773 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 2: I do, and I think he would. I think that 774 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 2: the lesson here, Jeff is whatever era Aaron Judge plays in. 775 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 3: He's great. 776 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,800 Speaker 2: But I also think in the vast minority in any 777 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 2: era in which bay Ruth plays, he's great. 778 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 3: Am I wrong? It's okay to say I'm wrong. 779 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 1: Now I agree with you completely. He's the greatest man 780 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: to do it in so many respects, and you throw 781 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 1: in the show Heyo Tani factor of him also being 782 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 1: a really good pitcher back in the day, it's kind 783 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 1: of a no brainer that he could still play in 784 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:21,359 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four.

By the way, Tim was also when 831 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 8: he did Fictional Movie Stars. It was appisode Taylor Baite 832 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:37,600 Speaker 8: for me talking about Roy Hobbs and all the rest 833 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:37,799 Speaker 8: of it. 834 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,839 Speaker 6: So congrats you both. I'm so happy for you both. 835 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 1: So and in two of your biggest loves in the 836 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:46,400 Speaker 1: world movies and sports, specifically baseball. And my dad and 837 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 1: I were talking before you came on, and I'm almost 838 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:53,760 Speaker 1: nervous to ask a question like this. So your favorite director, 839 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: for anybody who doesn't know. 840 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 6: Is Martin Scorsese. 841 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 1: Who is the baseball equivalent of Martin Scorsese? 842 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 8: Oh my god, what a great question. No one's ever 843 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 8: asked you that, Jeff, I can see why you're a 844 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 8: star on this broadcasting reland buy myself a few minutes. Well, 845 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 8: I have to think of somebody who was an absolute virtuoso. 846 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 8: But he wasn't the first. And Scorsese is so humble 847 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:18,279 Speaker 8: he'll often point out he admires all those directors before him. 848 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,440 Speaker 8: So he'll point out the greatness of Arsa Wells or 849 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 8: John Ford or Howard Hawks or Sergei Leoni or Pollin Presberger. 850 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 8: So in baseball terms, that means I can't say Babe Ruth, 851 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,399 Speaker 8: I can't say Whitey Ford. Yeah, I'm gonna say somebody. 852 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 8: So you know, in Sparsese's mind, it is someone who 853 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 8: was a mid tier. So let's go fifties sixties, could 854 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:37,000 Speaker 8: just say Mantle, but no, Marty's not an alcoholic when 855 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 8: bad knees, and that's not gonna work. You know what, 856 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 8: I'm gonna go with Clemente. How about this, I'm gonna 857 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 8: just because Clemente. I'll work it this way. Clemente was 858 00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 8: an artist, and it wasn't just the material which you saw, 859 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 8: It was the feeling when you saw him play. And 860 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 8: I would argue when I watched Martin Scorsese films, it's 861 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 8: not just what Goodfellas or Raging Bull or Taxi Driver 862 00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 8: or Main Street or The Wolf of Wall Street or 863 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 8: Games of New York trying to convey. It's the feeling 864 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 8: that those movies gave me. And Jeff, your dad knows this. 865 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 8: I just went to Pittsburgh to P and C for 866 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 8: the first time. My wife and kids were a talis 867 00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:10,920 Speaker 8: and I'm going to P and C. I drove six hours. 868 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,000 Speaker 8: By the way, eighty East is a boring drive. At 869 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 8: one point, Tammy, I wanted to pull an RFK, just 870 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:17,399 Speaker 8: like put a bear in. 871 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:19,439 Speaker 6: My trunk and just don't need him afterwards. There's nothing 872 00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:20,280 Speaker 6: to do on that drive. 873 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 8: It's horrible, but I got there I woke from seeing 874 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,280 Speaker 8: signs eighty west Columbus and Cleveland. 875 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:26,160 Speaker 6: I said, where the hell am I? 876 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,320 Speaker 8: But that first sight of the Clmente Bridge, that yellow 877 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 8: and the sun shimmering off the Alleghany, it is unbelievable. 878 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,400 Speaker 8: And Jeff, your dad always told me it's as good 879 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 8: as it gets, and he's right, especially the high up view. 880 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 8: And I sat in the press box, seat number twenty 881 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,879 Speaker 8: one for Clemente, wearing a Clente shirt, staring out there, 882 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 8: and I wasn't gonna watching the game. 883 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 6: I was transfixed by the bridge in the downtown.

So I remember reading 888 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:55,720 Speaker 8: the book years ago, which is great by David Marinis, 889 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 8: and he said, you know, you can all the numbers, 890 00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:58,080 Speaker 8: and your dad knows all the numbers. 891 00:45:58,120 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 6: You know, two time. 892 00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 8: World Series champion, three thou hits greatest right field arm ever. 893 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 8: But really it's it's the artistry in the past which 894 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 8: you made him see, which gets me the segway which 895 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,720 Speaker 8: I really want to talk about, which is this, so Tim. 896 00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,840 Speaker 6: Kirchen is beloved by all years ago. 897 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 8: Phil Orlans, who is our boss that still is at 898 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,800 Speaker 8: Major League Baseball ESPN.
