Dad, I have it on 26 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: good authority. So this past weekend, I was at a 27 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: wedding and it was in Baltimore. So my wife and 28 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,559 Speaker 1: I we drove down, stopped at your house, first, drove 29 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: past Baltimore, went to your house, dropped our daughter off 30 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: with you for two overnights with Catcat and Pop Pop. 31 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: I have to say, first of all, thank you, because 32 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: we had an amazing time at the wedding. But you 33 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: also have two grandchildren that lived ten minutes away from you, 34 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: my sister's kids, Carson and Emma. Emma and McKinley, my daughter. 35 00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: They are just about four months apart, and while play 36 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: with you, Emma asserted to my daughter McKinley, no, that's 37 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: my pop Pop. 38 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 2: All right, that's enough of that, Jeff. I was feeding 39 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 2: both of them at the time, and as we know 40 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 2: two in one year old granddaughters, that's what they love 41 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 2: to do most is eat food. So I was feeding 42 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 2: something to McKinley and Emma got a little bit jealous. 43 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 2: That's that's the whole story there, Jeff. We had a 44 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 2: great time with McKinley. She was absolutely adorable and she 45 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 2: was so well behaved, and I think we did a 46 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 2: good job with him in the summation though, Jeff, I 47 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 2: left I did leave something out. I probably should have 48 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: told you I helpe it's okay instead of chocolate, milk 49 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: or juice. In the morning, her and I had a 50 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: couple of diamount duws eating. Is that is that okay? 51 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 2: I wasn't sure if that was the right right thing 52 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 2: to do. Reading the box scores. 53 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: Now, I'm sure she to see how many walks so 54 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: he Otani had. 55 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: He's all over the takeaways. 56 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: Well, Jeff Schid, hold on real quick. You're gonna hate this, 57 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: but I just have to tell the people what an 58 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: amazing grandfather you are. You are on the ground crawling 59 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: around with them, picking up toys, playing, and you're gonna 60 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: roll your eyes and you're gonna say, come on. People 61 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: don't need to but they need to know. You are 62 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: the best grandfather a kid could ask for. You are 63 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: so active, You're on the floor playing with the kids, 64 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: doing bits, making them laugh. You're just the best dad. Well, 65 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: I can't thank you enough. 66 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 2: That's very good. But speaking of rivalries, Jeff, I was 67 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 2: thinking about rivalries between a father and a son, and 68 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 2: I don't think you and I really have a rivalry 69 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,839 Speaker 2: in any kindness. We established very early on in your 70 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 2: life and Kelly's life that Pop Pap is only good 71 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: for three things baseball, basketball, and feeding the dogs. So 72 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: I think, and that's a direct quote, as you know, Jeff, 73 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 2: So I think we can acknowledge that I'm better than 74 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 2: you at baseball, basketball, and feeding the dogs, but you 75 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 2: are better than me at everything else, fixing things, doing 76 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 2: stuff around the house, technological things, everything else. And we 77 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 2: didn't play video games together because it was too tedious 78 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 2: to me. Do we have a rivalry at all? Jeff, 79 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 2: father son? I know we're not supposed to do that, 80 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,239 Speaker 2: but we don't play fantasy football against each other because 81 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 2: it's I don't have time to do that. I don't 82 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 2: even think we have a rivalry. 83 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: No, we don't, Dad, we don't have a rivalry, I 84 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 1: don't think. But I will say we did have arguably 85 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 1: our biggest disagreement of our lives adult lives, I should say, 86 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: just a couple of weeks ago, when I excluded that 87 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: I felt I could outrun Kyle Schwarber to first base, 88 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: and you were so insulted, you were so upset at 89 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: me for making that assumption when I have a bum 90 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: ankle and a bum foot and planner fasci itis like 91 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: nobody's ever seen before, Jeff, I would say, and you 92 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: convinced me otherwise, I have to say, I don't think 93 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: I could beat him to first right now, Jeff. 94 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 2: You're a radio talk show host with a broken ankle. 95 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 2: You think you can beat a major league player. A 96 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: few years ago, Kyle Schwarber stole ten bases in the 97 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 2: major leagues. He's a little bit chunky, but he can 98 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 2: run the fast as you ever ran in your life. 99 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 2: You would never beat Kyle Schwarber in a race. He's 100 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 2: four or four to first base. That's not exactly slow. Okay, 101 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 2: let's just make sure we understand who we're talking about here, 102 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 2: a professional athlete who can run. He's not fast, but 103 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 2: he's faster than you, and it's not close. 104 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: We actually decided not to bring this up on the 105 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: podcast and thought I would look so stupid, and hence 106 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: the only reason why I brought it up right now. 107 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: So but Dad, speaking of this wedding, this is a 108 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: tradition that me and my buddy, so my friends, we've 109 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: been in a fantasy football group since we were in 110 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 1: the seventh grade pretty much, and we have a group 111 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 1: text called Ball is Life. Okay, so stupid, but there's 112 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: twelve of us in it, and at every wedding that 113 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: one of us has had now, we played basketball on 114 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: the morning of or the morning before the wedding. So 115 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: my buddy Joey, who's gotten more mentions than maybe Aaron 116 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: Judge on this podcast. This morning, Joey got married to 117 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: his lovely bride, Jess. Oh my gosh, and Dad, the 118 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 1: power was out at their wedding venue. They had no 119 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: power at the wedding venue, so the morning of the 120 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: wedding they moved venues to a completely different place. It 121 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: was unbelievable and it could not have happened to two 122 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: nicer people and two calmer people. All of the women 123 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: of the brides and girlfriends of Ball is Life, fittingly 124 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: called Ball's Wife, they all said they would have cried 125 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: and exploded and been the worst. And Jess, the bride, 126 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: was like, oh yep, here's what's going on. This is 127 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: what we're gonna do. It was incredible, Dad. The wedding 128 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: was amazing and thanks to you we were able to 129 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: enjoy it. I want to give a shout out really 130 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: fast to Glenn l Dragons. They won an overtime. It's 131 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: an inside joke with one of Joey's brothers. I promised 132 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: him I'd give him a shout out because he was 133 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: jealous of how many shout outs his brother Joey got 134 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: but the Glen l Country School. I was a little 135 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 1: tipsy when I wrote this down. Dragons, you want an overtime. 136 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:51,239 Speaker 1: Congratulations to you, and another shout out to missus Kelly 137 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: as I call her Ben Kelly's mother, who is our 138 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: number one fan of the podcast. She listens to every 139 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: single episode. Doctor Kelly her husband. They have amazing children, 140 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,679 Speaker 1: one of which I grew up with. So anyway, sorry, 141 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: that was my little recap of the wedding. 142 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 2: Jeff. If we had moved your sister's wedding on the 143 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 2: morning of the wedding the venue, it would have been 144 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 2: a complete panic in our house. Of course, the Melon 145 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 2: auditorium was pretty darn big. I'm not sure we could 146 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 2: have gone maybe to the White House, but nothing else 147 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 2: to the house our group for Kelly's wedding. All right, 148 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 2: enough of that stuff. 149 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, so just a big shout out to Joey and Jess, 150 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 1: and thank you to all of you for listening because 151 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: we had so many people who were commenting at that wedding, 152 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: Dad about our conversation about the orange crushes I had 153 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: at that bachelor party. Orange crushes served at the wedding, 154 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: mind you. So I had another one and it was fantastic. 155 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 1: So we're gonna have to do an episode with orange 156 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 1: crushes at some point, Dad. Finally we'll jump into baseball. 157 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: Thank you for letting me talk babies and weddings. What 158 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: are your takeaways from this weekend? 159 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 2: Well, the obvious one is that the Orioles fired their manager, 160 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 2: Brandon High. They are now heading into Monday's games fifteen 161 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 2: and thirty. Jeff, I did not see this coming. Nobody 162 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,959 Speaker 2: saw this coming. This is a shocking fall from grace 163 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 2: that the Orioles have made this year, and I'm not 164 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 2: sure they're getting out of this. Tony Manzolino is their 165 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 2: new manager, and I feel a little bit sorry for him. Jeff, 166 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 2: his first game as a manager in the major leagues 167 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 2: in the top of the first inning against the Nationals, 168 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 2: he had to go take his starting pitcher out of 169 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 2: the game because he got hit so hard. First game 170 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 2: as a manager, before his team even got a chance 171 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 2: to bat, he had to take his pitcher out of 172 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 2: the game. That's a difficult start to your managerial career. 173 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 2: And then the second game, the Orioles were down seven 174 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 2: to nothing in the second inning. So first game six 175 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 2: to Ozho in the first, second game, nothing in the second. 176 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 2: So let's hope for the Oriole's sake that they turned 177 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 2: this around. But this is very, very discouraging and they 178 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,199 Speaker 2: have a long, long way to go. 179 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,719 Speaker 1: I mean, that is just a little bit of a 180 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: different start than new manager Don Kelly of the Pirates, right, who's. 181 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: Got He's managed two Saturday games in his career now 182 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: Jeff as a manager, he's been thrown out of both 183 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 2: of them. So we wonder about that. And wasn't Joey's 184 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 2: bachelor party at the at Camden Yards? Didn't you go 185 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 2: to an Oriole game? 186 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 1: Yes, we were at Camden Yards. They played the Toronto 187 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 1: Blue Jays and it was a fun time. But I 188 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: can admittedly say I don't think any of us remember 189 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: who won that right, of. 190 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 2: Course, because you had twelve orange crushes each. Okay, all right, 191 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 2: now you mentioned show Heyo Tani Jeff. No matter what 192 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 2: he does, good or bad and very little bad, he 193 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 2: always seems to draw attention because he's just amazing. So 194 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 2: he's had four bobblehead days in his career, four already, 195 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 2: and he's hit a home run on three of them, 196 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 2: which is just classic show Hey, Toddy. He rises to 197 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 2: the occasion like very few others. He also, I just 198 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 2: saw this the other day. He scored eleven runs in 199 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 2: the first inning this year in the first inning. So 200 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: Andrew Vaughn for instance, of the White Sox, Sal Perez 201 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 2: and a bunch of other guys good players haven't scored 202 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 2: eleven runs all season in all the innings, and the 203 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 2: Houston Astros have scored nine runs in the first inning. 204 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 2: And show Hey by himself has scored eleven runs in 205 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 2: the first inning, which is amazing. Show Hey also hit 206 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 2: home run number sixteen, which gave him the major league lead. 207 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: And in the same week he got struck out by 208 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 2: a position player. Catcher for the A's Johnny Pereta struck 209 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 2: him out. So wherever he goes amazing things happen. 210 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: You agree, Yeah, well, and this goes back to the 211 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: whole conversation Dad, we had with the traditional lead off 212 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 1: guy is not the traditional leadoff guy anymore. That allows 213 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: sho hee Otani to score that many runs, But I 214 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: had I don't know if this is a court gin. 215 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 1: But even though he's been playing so well, the Angels, 216 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: his former team, swept the Dodgers in rivalry Week. And 217 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: that's the first time the Angels have swept the Dodgers 218 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: in fifteen years. 219 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 2: Years right, and the first time the Dodgers have been 220 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 2: swept in a three game series since last July when 221 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,719 Speaker 2: the Phillies beat him. So yeah, it's pretty hard to 222 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 2: do again. The beauty of baseball. Jeff didn't see the 223 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 2: Orioles coming this bad didn't see the Angels sweeping the Dodgers. 224 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: All sorts of things. And one thing I didn't see coming, Jeff, 225 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 2: is the Twins winning thirteen games in a row. I 226 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 2: did their game on the radio a few weeks ago 227 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 2: in Minneapolis Astros against the Twins. Astros. I mean, Twins 228 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: were not looking good and then they reel off thirteen 229 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 2: straight wins and have thirty four consecutive scoreless innings, which 230 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 2: is their long streets since they moved to Minneapolis Saint 231 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 2: Paul in nineteen sixty one. And what I love about 232 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 2: this one of the guys leading the charge is Cody Clemens, 233 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 2: Roger Clemens's son who's banged around, got DFA by the Phillies, 234 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 2: and in his first fifteen games with the with the Twins, 235 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 2: he three homers, knocked in eight runs down in ops 236 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 2: over one thousand. Just another reminder, Jeb, the game is 237 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 2: so unpredictable that Cody Clemens, who looked like he was 238 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 2: lost for a while, has come in and helped the 239 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,719 Speaker 2: Twins win thirteen games in a row. 240 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,559 Speaker 1: Well, it speaks volumes dad to a guy who is 241 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 1: kind of platooning all over the place for a different 242 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: team is finally given a chance to play every day. 243 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 1: And this is a game where you need rhythm, right, 244 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: you need at match, you need to show up. So 245 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: I mean Phillies fans can sit there happens the teams 246 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: all the time. You lose a guy, he ends up 247 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: playing every day and he's better for a different team. 248 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: But there is a million factors, including they don't have 249 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 1: a spot for him every day. And so he's playing 250 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: better when he plays every day, and that's a fact. 251 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 2: Right, And speaking of the Phillies, Bryce Harper drove in 252 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 2: a run number one thousand in his career. He's thirty 253 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 2: two years old. But just for a little context, Bryce 254 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:15,959 Speaker 2: Harper is going to the Hall of Fame someday. He's 255 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 2: on a Hall of Fame track. Obviously, Hank Aaron had 256 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 2: two thousand, two hundred and ninety seven RBIs in his career. 257 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 2: So Bryce Harper gets to one thousand, and he's still 258 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 2: almost thirteen hundred behind Hank Aaron. That's how many runs 259 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 2: Hank Aaron drove in in his. 260 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: Career, and how many current players. I mean, I'm just 261 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 1: looking through the list now. It seems like there's only 262 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: a few current players who have more Nolan Aronado, Carlos 263 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: Santana's Gian Carlos Santon, Andrew McCutchen, Manny Machado. That might 264 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: be all I'm seeing right now though. Oh, Paul Goldschmid's 265 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: on that list too, so he. 266 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 2: Eyes is quite a milestone, but it is not even 267 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 2: He's not even closed to halfway to Hank Aaron. Just 268 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 2: show And speaking of RBI's Wilmur Flores going into Monday's 269 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 2: game of the Giants led the major leagues in RBIs 270 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 2: with forty two. Now, I did not see that coming. Jet. Now. 271 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 2: It was helped, of course by a three homer eight 272 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 2: RBI game in San Francisco the other day, which gave 273 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 2: you more three homer games in that ballpark than Barry 274 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 2: Bonds had. And Barry Bonds never had a three home 275 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 2: run game in that ballpark, had had other three homer 276 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 2: games and everything. And by the way, Wilmer Flores has 277 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 2: fourteen walk off plate appearances plate appearances. You could walk 278 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 2: with the bases loaded, get hit with the base loaded, groundball, 279 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 2: score run, sacrifice fly, It doesn't have to be a hit. 280 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 2: And the only active player with more walk off plate 281 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 2: appearances than Wilmer Flores is Bryce Harper. I mean, Wilmer 282 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 2: Flores has had a good career, JET, but I did 283 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 2: not see him with fourteen walk off plate appearances and 284 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 2: leading the league in RBIs through Sunday. Just the beauty 285 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 2: of the sport. 286 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: That's what makes baseball the best, right. 287 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 2: And last thing, Jeff in the takeaways, I saw play 288 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 2: the other day that I don't think I've ever seen before, 289 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 2: and Jeff, we talk about this all the time. We've 290 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 2: been playing baseball for one hundred and fifty years, played 291 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 2: well over two hundred thousand games. I estimate that I've 292 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 2: seen four thousand games in person in my life. And 293 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 2: this was on TV, so I wasn't there, But will 294 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 2: you are? A bray of the Red Sox went over 295 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 2: the fence in right center field and brought a ball 296 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 2: back in to play, and today Saddan Rafaela was there 297 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 2: to catch it. So I've seen it where two teammates 298 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 2: drop a ball and the other one catches it, like 299 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 2: Bob Boone and Pete Rose famously in front of the 300 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 2: dugout on a foul pop up. This was a home 301 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 2: run ball that was taken back into the stadium and 302 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 2: caught by another outfield who almost never there. They're not 303 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 2: trained anymore, Jeff to back up on that situation, but 304 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 2: because he was backing up, that became an out. I 305 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 2: don't think I've ever seen anything quite like that, and 306 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 2: that's what we love so much about baseball. Every day, Jeff, 307 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 2: you go to the ballpark, you might see something that 308 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 2: you've never seen before. 309 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 1: Let's jump right into the quirk, Jins, what. 310 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 2: Do you have, all right. The box score line of 311 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 2: the week goes to Mackenzie Gore of the Nationals against 312 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 2: the Orioles the other night, three and two thirds innings Jeff, 313 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 2: ten hits allowed and nine strikeouts. So I checked with 314 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 2: Frank with the Elias, because only he can find these things. 315 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 2: So only one other time since eighteen ninety three, when 316 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 2: the mound was moved to sixty feet six inches. I 317 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 2: just love it, Jeff, that it hasn't moved since eighteen 318 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 2: ninety three. How did they know that sixty feet six 319 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 2: inches was the right distance? And how you know how 320 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 2: arbas sixty feet six inches? But that's what they ended up, 321 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 2: not sixty feet, not sixty one, sixty feet six inches. 322 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 2: The only other guy to have a pitching line quite 323 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 2: like that was No Sindergarten twenty fifteen. He had four 324 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 2: innings pitched, ten hits allowed, and ten strikeouts. So those 325 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 2: the only two times that a pitcher allowed that many hits, 326 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 2: had that many strikeouts in four innings or fewer of 327 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 2: a major league start, And it's just amazing. And in 328 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 2: that game, Jeff Jorge Lopez got the victory for the 329 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 2: Nationals and they gave him a six to zero record 330 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 2: this year. He's a reliever. He's pitched twenty innings this 331 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 2: year and he had six wins. So at the time 332 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 2: of his sixth victory as a relief pitcher, throwing a 333 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 2: total of twenty innings, he had only one fewer win 334 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 2: than the Rockies had all season. I mean, so I 335 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 2: checked with Frank again. You know, how rare is it 336 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 2: for anyone to have six victories pitching only twenty innings 337 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,919 Speaker 2: in a season, And it's only happened three other times 338 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,600 Speaker 2: since eighteen ninety three, the last by Jeff Nelson in 339 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 2: two thousand. So when you ask these curious questions and 340 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 2: you get these amazing answers, it just makes me smile 341 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 2: out loud, you know. 342 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,439 Speaker 1: And Brian Dill, big big shout out. He hit us 343 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 1: up at Great Game or what dot com. He said, 344 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: I was looking at some stats and discovered that Jorge 345 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,439 Speaker 1: Lopez is six and l and he has an ERA 346 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: of seven point two zero. How often does a pitcher 347 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 1: of six wins no losses in an ERA over seven. 348 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,879 Speaker 1: I mean, I thought it was so crazy when I 349 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: saw that email come through, and now here we are 350 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: talking about six and. 351 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 2: Oh well, it's insane. Jeff, this is why people pay 352 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 2: no attention to wins and losses anymore because of stats 353 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 2: like this. However, I still claim that in the case 354 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 2: of say Max Free who's got nearly a seven hundred 355 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 2: win percentage and has carried the Yankee staff in his 356 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 2: career almost seven hundred winning percentage, you need to pay 357 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 2: attention to those things once in a while, all right. Also, 358 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 2: Cal Quantrell, the son of Paul Quantrill, who pitched the 359 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 2: big leagues for a long time, Sunday had an immaculate 360 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 2: inning that Jeff, you know what an immaculate inning is. 361 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: Explain nine pitches, nine strikes, three strikeouts inning over right. 362 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 2: And the last player for the Mariners to do that 363 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 2: was Jesus Sanchez in nineteen ninety eight. It's a very 364 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 2: you know, it happens two or three times at most 365 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 2: per year. Now. We had a discussion the other day 366 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 2: at ESPN, Jeff, and one of the one of the 367 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:50,960 Speaker 2: producers said, it cannot be an immaculate inning. If somebody 368 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,879 Speaker 2: makes contact with a pitch, like if he fouls a 369 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 2: pitch off, it's not an immaculate inning. I thoroughly disagree. 370 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 2: If you throw, if you throw a pitch by a 371 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 2: guy and he fouls it back or hits one down 372 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 2: the right field line, foul, it's still a strike. I'm 373 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 2: not going to get into nine pitches. Either he swung 374 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 2: and missed them all or took the ball. If you 375 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 2: make contact, it's a strike. Nine pitches, three strikeouts. That's 376 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 2: an immaculate inning. Am I about to drop that? 377 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: What about to drop third strike? 378 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 2: That's still an immaculate inning because. 379 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 1: It doesn't look nearly as pretty and immaculate. Well, we're 380 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: not defined as beautiful. 381 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 2: Well, we're not going to define We're not going to 382 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 2: penalize the pitcher because the catcher dropped the third strike 383 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 2: and had to throw it to first base. We had 384 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 2: some great names, Jeff, and I'm going to have to 385 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 2: read some of these. I may even have to look 386 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 2: down at my notebook. On Saturday, the Nationals pitched Zach 387 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 2: Bricksy spelled his last name b r z y k 388 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 2: c K. I repeat b z y k c k. 389 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 2: That's Zach Britsy. He pitched for the Nationals and on 390 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 2: the same day for the Brewers Rob Zistrisney. And I've 391 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 2: used his name a million times and I still have 392 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 2: to pronounce it properly. Zustrisney pitched on the same day. 393 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 2: You spell Rob's last name zas tr y z n 394 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 2: y so a couple of years ago, several years ago, 395 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 2: I did the baseball fix, and the first baseball fix 396 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 2: we did was on Rob's birthday, and I asked him 397 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 2: all about this ridiculous name that he has, and he says, 398 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 2: no one has ever pronounced my name properly on the 399 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 2: first shot. He said, it's has been mangled worse than 400 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 2: any name he's ever seen. So he's playing at a 401 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 2: high school game once that he told me that the 402 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 2: poor public address announcer just mangled his name so badly 403 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 2: the first two times times up that when he came 404 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 2: to the plate the third time he was introduced as 405 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 2: now batting the first baseman Rob Smith, he changed his 406 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 2: name to Rob Smith because he wasn't about to mess 407 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 2: with his poor name the third time around. We love 408 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 2: that speaking the names, Jeff, Jake Berger, I told you 409 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 2: this faced Brian King the other day in the Astros 410 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 2: Ranger series. So for the at least the third time 411 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 2: that I can remember, we had a Burger King matchup, 412 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 2: and I asked Jake Berger about that. One time I said, 413 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 2: do you get a kick out of it too? When 414 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 2: you face a guy named King and it's Burger King 415 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,639 Speaker 2: and he goes to you and he laughs out loud him. 416 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 2: Of course I do, he said. The memes after the 417 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 2: game the next day, he said, they're absolutely hilarious and 418 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 2: they hit my computer at a thousand miles an hour. 419 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: Burger King, and that shocked. 420 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 1: You just used the word meme in a sent This 421 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: is a game blowing, right. 422 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 2: I've never I've only sent one meme in my life, Jeff, 423 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 2: We've been over this, right. I accidentally, Oh no, no, no, sorry, sorry, 424 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 2: I got it mixed up with an emoji. This is 425 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 2: how bad I am. Geezy peasy, I am so bad. 426 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 2: A meme and an emoji, all right. I've never sent 427 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 2: a meme. I don't even know how to do that. 428 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 2: I sent one emoji and it was an accident. I 429 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 2: said a butt emoji to Carl Ravage during a game once. 430 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 2: It was an emoji of a cow, and I didn't 431 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 2: even know what I was doing, and he sent me back. 432 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 2: He sent me back in text like what is this? 433 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 2: You sent me a cow? And I said, what? 434 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 1: So? 435 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 2: I've said one emoji. It was a mistake and it 436 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 2: was a cow, and it was said to Rabbi while 437 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 2: he was broadcasting a game. 438 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm going to quietly challenge members of our family, that's 439 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 1: you who listen to the show, to send us some 440 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: Tim Kirkhen memes.

We're gonna have that 445 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 1: car that way you could be sending memes. 446 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 2: Right, We're gonna have that cartoon bubble coming out of 447 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 2: my mouth and it's gonna say I'm a dope because 448 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 2: I just mixed up meme and emoji, which aren't even close. Oh, 449 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 2: poor papaup. All right, last thing, Jeff on Sunday, I 450 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 2: got a kick out of this. Victor Scott, the second 451 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 2: of the Cardinals. So he goes by Victor Scott and 452 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 2: then two Roman numerals. The second he faced Daniel Lynch, 453 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 2: the fourth, so it's Daniel Lynch I v. The fourth 454 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 2: of the Royals. So that was the pitching matchup. So 455 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 2: we had a two and a four face each other. 456 00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 2: And guess what inning they faced each. 457 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: Other in the second and the fourth. 458 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 2: No, they faced each other one time, oh only once. 459 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, in the fourth inning with two outs. 460 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 2: No, they faced each other in the sixth hitting, So 461 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 2: two plus four okay, all right, so phase four in 462 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 2: the sixth. 463 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 1: Sitting, hold on one second, hold on one sec. Yeah, 464 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 1: that checks out two plus fours for you. The one 465 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 1: got it, got it alright on? 466 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 2: All right? Those are the questionins. That was a lot 467 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 2: of pointless, useless, nonsensical information. But this is what I love, 468 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 2: and I'm going to keep doing it until tell someone 469 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 2: tells me to stop. 470 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: Well, coming up next, we have on this date in 471 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: baseball history, Dad, Also in the year twenty twenty five, 472 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:51,959 Speaker 1: Kirk Gibson leading off a game, I've got something special 473 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 1: for you, Dad, little surprise for you on that and 474 00:26:55,800 --> 00:27:00,640 Speaker 1: a movie about baseball brothers. Another thing that my dad 475 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: doesn't know about. It's all coming up next on is 476 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 1: this a great game? 477 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 2: A lot of things I don't know about. I can't 478 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: wait to hear this, Dad. 479 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: Let me throw it to commercial. We'll be right back. 480 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 1: We're back on is this a great game? Or what? 481 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 2: Dad? 482 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: On this state in baseball history? 483 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 2: What do you have well? On this date nineteen forty five, 484 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 2: the Saint Louis Browns played the Yankees in a doubleheader, 485 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 2: and Pete Gray of the Browns made three really good 486 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 2: defensive catches. He got four hits, and he drove in 487 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 2: two runs. And that's only well, it's really important because 488 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 2: he only had one arm. Pete Gray was the major 489 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 2: leaguer who played in the big leagues during war time, 490 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 2: of course, but he played with one arm, and in 491 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 2: a doubleheader he got four hits and drove in two 492 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 2: runs and made three really good defensive plays. That's pretty 493 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 2: darn impressive. In nineteen eighty four, Roger Clemens won his 494 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 2: first major league game. Of course, he went on to 495 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 2: win mor Cy Young seven than anybody else, and I'll 496 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 2: never forget. Look, you can say what you want about 497 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 2: Roger Clemens, all right, but I know I went to 498 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 2: see the Yankees, this is a million years ago, on 499 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 2: a Sunday, and I did not realize that Sunday was 500 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 2: the late reporting time every Sunday, the Yankees were allowed 501 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 2: to report late to spring training to the game to 502 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 2: the ballpark that day, but I didn't know that, so 503 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 2: I got there at seven o'clock in the morning and 504 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: I'm driving through the parking lot and there's Roger Clemens 505 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 2: playing catch with a football with the trainer out in 506 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 2: the parking lot. So he was there at least at 507 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 2: seven o'clock in the morning on a day when they 508 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 2: didn't have to be there till eleven, and he was 509 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 2: throwing a football in order to strengthen his arm. That's 510 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 2: what he did. And I'll never forget. Also, Jeb nineteen 511 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 2: eighty seven, I was covering the Orioles and we were 512 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 2: in New York and they just played the Yankees. And 513 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 2: for some reason, Roger Clemens was staying in the hotel 514 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 2: that we were staying in. And Edward Bennett Williams, the 515 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 2: owner of the Orioles, saw me in the lobby that 516 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 2: morning and he goes, you know what I just saw. 517 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 2: I just saw Roger Clemens come in from a run. 518 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 2: It was like seven o'clock in the morning, and Roger 519 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 2: Clemens had been running around, jogging, running through Manhattan, and 520 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 2: he must have started at six in the morning, and 521 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 2: he had pitched the night before. And Edward Bennet Williams, 522 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 2: high powered Washington lawyer, one of the most famous lawyers 523 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 2: ever just looked at me and said, that is commitment. 524 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:45,959 Speaker 2: So you can say what you want about Roger Clemens. 525 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 2: Don't you ever question how much he wanted to be 526 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 2: great and how much he wanted to win. 527 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, but he never struck out thirty in one game. 528 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 2: Right, great story there, Jeff. I'm not going to repeat it, 529 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 2: but it's hilariously funny. We've used it twice already this year. 530 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 1: Okay, if you will say this to members of our family, 531 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: if you know you know the joke, we won't explain. 532 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 2: Continue, Okay. Nineteen ninety nine, Robin Ventura hit home run, 533 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 2: hit hit a Grand Slam in both ends of a doubleheader, 534 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 2: which I get a big kick out of because Robin 535 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 2: Ventura hit eighteen Grand slams in his career, tying Willie 536 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 2: McCovey for the fifth most Grand slams ever. Alex Rodriguez 537 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 2: hit the most at twenty five. So Robin Venture I think, 538 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 2: won six goal gloves, hit a ton of Grand slams. 539 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 2: Was a brilliant defensive third baseman who made the bunt 540 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 2: play as well as anyone I've seen other than Brooks Robinson. 541 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 2: He was great. But Robin Venture, as you know, Jeff 542 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 2: is known more for his fight with Nolan Ryan when 543 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,120 Speaker 2: he charged the mound against Nolan Ryan that time. And 544 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 2: I'll tell this story again. So Robin Venture, years later, 545 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 2: and he was not proud of any of this, told 546 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 2: me he got hit in the back by a pitch 547 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 2: from Nolan Ryan. And he said it hurt so much 548 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 2: that I couldn't even think straight anymore. I was seeing red. 549 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 2: So I ran to the mound because I was so 550 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 2: angry because it hurt so much. And I got halfway 551 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 2: there and my head cleared, and I realized at that moment, 552 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 2: oh my gosh, I'm charging the bout against Nolan Ryan, 553 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 2: who was in his forties. And Nolan Ryan, of course 554 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 2: grabbed him by the head and beat him over the 555 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 2: head a bunch of times. But only Robin Venture has 556 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 2: such a wonderful sense of humor, such a wry sense 557 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 2: of humor, would acknowledge that's what happened when he famously 558 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 2: charged the mound against Nolan Ryan. 559 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: Did you know, do you have any more on this date? 560 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 2: Yeah? One more, and two thousand and eight, Mike Piazza retired. 561 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 2: Let's make sure we understand Hall of Fame catcher for 562 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 2: me he's the greatest hitting catcher of all time. Although 563 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 2: now we're going to have to We're going to have 564 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 2: to look at that again now that Josh Gibson's numbers 565 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 2: have been brought in, I think now he has to 566 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 2: be considered the greatest hitting catcher of all time. I 567 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 2: just know that Mike Piazza was an amazing offensive player, 568 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 2: a slightly better defensive player than people gave him credit for. 569 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 2: And I'll never forget, Jeff. His last year was with Padres, 570 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 2: and every new Padre has to take a hand strength 571 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 2: test where you grip something like this and it shows 572 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 2: a reading of your hand strength. And Mike Piazza, in 573 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 2: his final year in the Big League's absolutely destroyed the 574 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 2: club record for the greatest hand strength ever. And as 575 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 2: Bruce Boche he told me, he said, it was like 576 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 2: Herman Munster was on our team. Jeff, you know how 577 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,239 Speaker 2: much I love Sitcobs from the sixties. Anytime you can 578 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 2: bring up Herman Munster in a complete sentence, you got me. Dad. 579 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 1: On this date in history, do you believe in life 580 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: after love? Shaer was born today?

Oh okay, he wrote Hamilton. He wrote 625 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,320 Speaker 1: the musical in the Heights. He now currently writes the 626 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 1: music for a lot, a lot, a lot of Disney movies. 627 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: Off the top of my head, I know he did 628 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,320 Speaker 1: like Mowana and a couple of Mowana too, and a 629 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,240 Speaker 1: couple other big, big movies in Canto. I do believe 630 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: I know all these movies, folks, because I have a 631 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: near two year old at my house. So, but he 632 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,440 Speaker 1: was on a red carpet Dad where he said that 633 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 1: he's working on a film that's about the Molina brothers. 634 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:21,920 Speaker 1: Oh really, Benji, Jose and Yadier Molina. And it kind 635 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 1: of comes from the very beginning of it because they're 636 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 1: all from the same town, Vega Alta, Puerto Rico. Right, 637 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:33,240 Speaker 1: They're all from Puerto Rico, right, And so he's working 638 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 1: on I mean, everything he touches, Dad is magic. It's amazing. 639 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,800 Speaker 1: I mean, think about how big Hamilton is right this. 640 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,919 Speaker 1: If he says it's happening, it's happening, and that means 641 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 1: we can confirm that at least to a certain degree. 642 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 1: Lin Manmoel Miranda is a baseball fan. 643 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 2: There we go, and the Molina brothers to have three 644 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:56,400 Speaker 2: catchers who were that good, especially defensively and YadA Air 645 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 2: is going to be a Hall of Famer someday. Is 646 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:02,760 Speaker 2: just like an amaze, amazing story of a family of catchers. 647 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 2: And they were all so so good. Well, I can't 648 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 2: wait to watch that movie because it's a baseball movie 649 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 2: and I love movies. And by the way, Jeff, just 650 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 2: to finish, McKinley, Hope and I your daughter. We watched 651 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 2: several movies while she was here, and she was just fascinated. 652 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,959 Speaker 2: So you know, I have a few suggestions if a couple. 653 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 2: She was just riveted to. 654 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 1: So, oh god, what did you show her, like Shawshank 655 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: Redemption or. 656 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:37,320 Speaker 2: No Silence of the Lambs, which I thought. We figured 657 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,360 Speaker 2: if there's a lamb in it, she might enjoy it. 658 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 2: Of course we didn't watch Silence of the Lambs. I 659 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,760 Speaker 2: took good care.
