1
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: While we wait for Andrew Vaughn in a couple of minutes,

2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:08,680
Speaker 1: let's show I think a former KP team.

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 2: Did you spend a minute with Syracuse with the Chiefs?

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 3: No, I played in Syracuse. I was never on the

5
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 3: Syracuse Mets, but I did play in Syracuse.

6
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 2: And I just called him the Chiefs Syracuse.

7
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 4: I was a Syracuse Met for a second. You're in

8
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 4: my career.

9
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, Well they.

10
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:28,159
Speaker 1: Don't like the name anymore. Okay, well, they don't like

11
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: the name. They want to rename it. So they're doing

12
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 1: a community contest and they want help. Anyone have any ideas.

13
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: They did this with Binghamton and turned into the Rumble Ponies,

14
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: which is an A plus name.

15
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,839
Speaker 6: Yeah, I've really you know what, I totally dropped the

16
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 6: ball on this one.

17
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 4: All I remember. It was never really any fans there.

18
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 4: It was always really quiet. I don't know, just the

19
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 4: Syracuse soundless fans. I don't know.

20
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: It was about whenever I've gone up there, it's negative

21
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: ten degrees and snowing eight feet.

22
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 4: There you go. I'm down with that.

23
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 3: I see a potential partnership here. When I think Syracuse,

24
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,720
Speaker 3: New York, I think Dinosaur barbecues. So how about the

25
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 3: Syracuse Dinosaurs.

26
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 4: There you go? Cool mask impossible?

27
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that.

28
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 4: You could definitely have a fire mascot running around there.

29
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 4: There you go. That would be hey, you know who?

30
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:26,320
Speaker 4: I love that.

31
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 6: You probably have a lot more families coming out, right,

32
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 6: kids coming out. They would enjoy that, so and that's

33
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 6: what they need. I just remember not a lot of fans. So, hey,

34
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 6: the Syracuse Dino's. I like that, right, you.

35
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 3: Can go to end up with a name like the

36
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 3: Rumble Ponies, Like did they just like everyone submitted their

37
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 3: name and then they pulled them out of a hat

38
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 3: and they're like, okay, let's vote, And someone just creatively

39
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 3: was like, hey, Rumble Ponies, that sounds great.

40
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: There's maybe there's some story to it that we don't

41
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: know because we didn't look it up.

42
00:01:58,440 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 2: But I like dinosaurs.

43
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: I mean you could do like a badass version of

44
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: Barney and bring him out there, more of a devilish Barney.

45
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 6: Well, you know, you know, I don't know if you go,

46
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 6: I don't know if you remember Barney Scotty, but you

47
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 6: do you remember bj I think.

48
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 4: It was it was like the Yellow Dinosaur. Yeah.

49
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 2: I used to remember because.

50
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 6: I think like the Rockies kind of they don't they

51
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 6: have a mascot that kind of looks like Barney a

52
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 6: little bit. So let's go like with BJ and go

53
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 6: with the yellow he had, like the cool sneakers, like

54
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 6: that was my favorite, you know character off the Barney

55
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 6: episodes was was that was that dinosaur character. So I

56
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 6: think we could switch it up, maybe some yellow and

57
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 6: something in there.

58
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: Orange orange fire.

59
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: All right, FT is back on TV's Across the Nation

60
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 1: and Kevin Plar is going to welcome in his former

61
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: teammate KP.

62
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 2: You want to do the intro?

63
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I'll do a brief intro. I mean,

64
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 3: former team of mine.

65
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 5: It was.

66
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 3: It was short lived, but very obviously very impactful. We

67
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 3: played together in spring Train. I was with the White

68
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 3: Sox for one month, but got to know Andrew Vaughn,

69
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 3: got to know his wife, was just a great teammate.

70
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 3: And obviously we're very happy to have you on the

71
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 3: show now, Milwaukee Brewer. Uh, kind of We're obviously going

72
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 3: to touch on, you know, going from last to first,

73
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 3: but how you doing doing good?

74
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,160
Speaker 7: I mean, you know, definitely a world win of a

75
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 7: year for me, to say the least.

76
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, I want to stay awake a little bit

77
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 3: from the obvious, because I know Cam wants to kind

78
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 3: of touch on, you know, culture of you know obviously

79
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 3: going from the White Sox to the Brewers, but I

80
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 3: kind of just wanted to talk about a little bit

81
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 3: about your journey. You know, everyone's path and the big

82
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 3: leagues is a little bit different. Yours is much different

83
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 3: than mine. I was a guy who's kind of up

84
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 3: and down in the minor leagues, big leagues, Triple A,

85
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 3: and then I finally got my opportunity. You got your opportunity,

86
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: you made the most of it, you played really well,

87
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 3: and then you struggled a little bit and you got

88
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 3: sent down a Triple A. Was that a little bit

89
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 3: of a wake up call for you? I know, as

90
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 3: a player, you always know that that's a reality, but

91
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 3: someone like you that for the most part was kind

92
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 3: of smooth sailing. You know, you kind of forget that

93
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 3: that's a reality, and then one day you just find

94
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 3: out you're going to Triple A. Was that just kind

95
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 3: of a little bit of a wake up call for you.

96
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, it was definitely tough.

97
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 7: I mean, first two months of the season didn't go

98
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 7: anywhere I wanted to, you know, the goals to go

99
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 7: out there and help your team win, and you know,

100
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 7: it felt like I wasn't able to do that.

101
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 5: You know, I was taking my best at Batch. You know,

102
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 5: I always put.

103
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 7: It all on the line, no matter what, just not

104
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 7: to see the results you know it's done, you know,

105
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 7: getting the triple A. I think the biggest goal was

106
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 7: just just get right, you know, get myself back.

107
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 5: To what I do in the box.

108
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 7: And you know I kind of I kind of felt

109
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 7: like I was moving that way, you know, and then

110
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 7: the trade happened.

111
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,799
Speaker 6: Hey, hey, Andrew, I want to I want to piggyback

112
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 6: off of that man, because I think that was a

113
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 6: great setup for my question because most of us, you know,

114
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 6: baseball players, we don't lose a lot coming through the rings,

115
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 6: right the first time we really you know, get that

116
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 6: taste of losing is in professional baseball, right, And I

117
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 6: just want to ask you, like, was there any pressure,

118
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 6: you know, you coming up to the White Sox as

119
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 6: highly talent, as highly talent as you were, was there

120
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 6: just you know, did you put add a pressure on yourself,

121
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 6: like trying to do everything and trying to, you know,

122
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 6: be the guy that creates that spark or whatever the

123
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 6: White Sox was looking for. Was that a part of

124
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 6: kind of the struggles that you went through after when

125
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 6: you first came up and we saw just how special

126
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 6: player you were.

127
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think a little bit. You know, it's definitely

128
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 7: tough losing. Nobody wants to do that. That's you know,

129
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 7: the worst thing in baseball. So I mean me personally,

130
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 7: I was trying to go out there and do everything

131
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 7: I could, you know, worked my butt off, you know,

132
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 7: went out there and was trying my best, and just

133
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 7: you know, it didn't work out the best. And yeah,

134
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 7: you know I came up pretty quick. You know, not

135
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 7: much minor league time. COVID happened. COVID kind of did

136
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 7: everything crazy to everybody, you know, But I got the

137
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 7: opportunity and you know, wanted to take full advantage of it.

138
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 4: One quick fall on that too.

139
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 6: You had a brief stint with and when we gonna

140
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 6: get to the fun stuff and the happy stuff, because

141
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 6: I'm so happy for you to be able to play

142
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,919
Speaker 6: a winning Brandon baseball because what KP was talking about,

143
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 6: you know, I mentioned earlier, people don't realize.

144
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 4: That, you know, bad baseball can be contagious, you know.

145
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 6: You know, even some of my you know, good years,

146
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,919
Speaker 6: it was a struggle on bad teams. You know, I

147
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 6: thought I had a good year and they hit like

148
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 6: two sixty and it was like, well, that was a.

149
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 4: Good year on the struggling team.

150
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 6: Can you talk about just on your way out, because

151
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 6: I think he's done a great job.

152
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 4: Will Venable just a little bit on maybe.

153
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,840
Speaker 6: The culture change he was my ex teammate. Can you

154
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 6: just touch on him a little bit before we talk

155
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 6: about the Brewers and and the kind of leader that

156
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 6: he's shown to be earlier early in his teen yere

157
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 6: as a White Sox manager.

158
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, his knowledge of the game is I mean,

159
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:42,680

Speaker 4: Right?

198
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 1: And a lot of fans do too. So when you

199
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: go over to Milwaukee, you know, I'm looking at scattering reports.

200
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: Did you move a little bit closer to the plate,

201
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: and do you have a conversation with the coaching staff

202
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: about you know, the way you've made contact right?

203
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 2: You've always hit the ball hard.

204
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: We talked about this for a while, right, and a

205
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: lot of times, you know, you go opposite field seeing

206
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: you pull the ball a little more right now, so

207
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: you can describe it much better than I can take

208
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: us through what you're actually seeing from either a stance

209
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: and approach perspective, and then also the way the ball's

210
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:32,719
Speaker 1: coming off the bat for you.

211
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, I didn't really think about the stance stuff very much.

212
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 7: You know, kind of went over some film with the

213
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 7: hitting coaches in Nashville, and you know, there was some

214
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 7: some minor tweaks you looked at when I was going

215
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 7: good and me compared to you know, maybe some rollovers,

216
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 7: some ground balls orre not going so good, you know,

217
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 7: and there was something that stood out and just you know,

218
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 7: worked on those in the cage, and you know, I think.

219
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 5: That's you know, helped my approach big time.

220
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 4: Hey, now we got to ask about Pat Murphy.

221
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 6: I've been fortunate enough to be around a lot of guys, right,

222
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,600

00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 7: I mean it's so exciting. I mean, you know, you

319
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 7: wake up, you got that little bit extra energy, just

320
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 7: ready to get there. I mean the clubhouse open at

321
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 7: twelve thirty, I bet every guy's in there.

322
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 5: Then you know, it's just a special feeling.

323
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 4: I love it.

324
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: Hey, I wanted to ask you off of the SIVALI question.

325
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: And first of all, he pitched money on the weekend

326
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: for the White Sox, so that's working out for them too.

327
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: But do you look back, like how crazy it is

328
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: that so many events need to lead up to this

329
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 1: moment where now you're in the thick of a playoff

330
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: race with the team that's got the best record in baseball, right,

331
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: because it basically came from the Brewers having starting pitching depth. Right,

332
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: they have too many good starters, which is probably one

333
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 1: of two or three teams in all of baseball that

334
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: have that problem.

335
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 2: The rest of them are desperately looking for them.

336
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 1: That turns into a starter wanting a starting spot, that

337
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: turns into him going to the White Sox and you

338
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: ending up here.

339
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, definitely crazy. Like I said, it's been

340
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,720
Speaker 7: a world win. You know, get sent a triple A Charlotte,

341
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 7: end up getting traded, get sent to Nashville, you know,

342
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,679
Speaker 7: unfortunately to reach but you know, got my opportunity and

343
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 7: my biggest fote was just get here and help the

344
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 7: team win. They were already rolling. So it's like I

345
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 7: just want to plug in and do what I can.

346
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: One more for me, Andrew, do you notice anything different

347
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: or unique about the way that the Brewers organization runs.

348
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 1: I know you've been there quick, right, But a lot

349
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: of our guys, and I'm the only non player, most

350
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 1: of the guys on this show play the game for

351
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: a long time. They'll tell me how they see something different.

352
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: Cam can speak to this too. The Brewers are playing

353
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: a style of baseball that's very different from many other

354
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: teams in the game. It's not all exit velocity of session.

355
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: Obviously stuff to be a big leaguer, but we're seeing

356
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: things that, actually, I can comment from a fan perspective,

357
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: are generally more fun to watch. So it's clean defense,

358
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: it's good base running. What have you noticed, Like, how

359
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: do you get a team to play like that? Of

360
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: course you need the personnel, but how do you get

361
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: a team to play that way?

362
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 5: Yeah?

363
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 7: I think it's just everybody buying in, you know, that's

364
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 7: the biggest thing.

365
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 5: Guys just putting.

366
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 7: It out on the line, just doing any during that

367
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 7: game to win, whether it's a bond, whether it's a

368
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 7: hit and run, you know, making a good play, just

369
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 7: all aspects of the game.

370
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 5: And I feel like everybody here bought into that.

371
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna touch on something kind of off topic,

372
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 3: here that maybe a lot of people don't understand. You know,

373
00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 3: I was traded a couple of times in my career.

374
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 3: It's very difficult the first time. It gets a little

375
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 3: bit easier the second time. But for us, it's just

376
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 3: playing baseball. But behind every player is a great wife. Lexie,

377
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 3: your wife. How is she making the adjustment to Milwaukee?

378
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 3: I know, you guys had a you know, a big

379
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 3: footprint in the city of Chicago. You guys did a

380
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 3: lot of things, charitable things off the field. How is

381
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 3: she settling into a new town.

382
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, it's been a world win for both

383
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 7: of us. You know, she's loving it. She's excited. She's

384
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 7: meeting all the wives and you know, getting connected, because

385
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 7: that's a big part of it too. I mean there

386
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 7: are families, but you know, our goal is we have

387
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 7: to go play baseball. But what goes on behind the scenes,

388
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 7: Like she's finding us a place to live, moving furnit sure,

389
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 7: shipping cars, doing all this stuff, and it's I mean,

390
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 7: we can't do it without them.

391
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 5: I mean, you guys can attest to that.

392
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love that.

393
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 1: Man.

394
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 6: Shout out to all the wives out there who, like

395
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 6: you said, people don't know what they really do.

396
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 4: They really become our personal assistants at time. They really do.

397
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 4: And I sacrifice so much.

398
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 6: I don't want to keep it on the high note

399
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 6: because just like KP, I was traded quite a few times. Uh,

400
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 6: And you're always trying to you know, you know, buy

401
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,120
Speaker 6: into the new culture and fit in.

402
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 4: Who's been the guy? Early on you said you're going

403
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 4: fishing today? A five? Like, who's been the guy.

404
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 6: That you connected with pretty quickly in that clubhouse that

405
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 6: you're like, Okay, this is you know, I'm bobbing with everybody,

406
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 6: but like, this is my guy.

407
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 4: Who's who's welcoming you with open arms? And who you

408
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 4: really vibbing with right now?

409
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 6: Yeah?

410
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 7: I think the only guy I knew off playing baseball

411
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 7: was I met Terrang a few years ago. You know,

412
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 7: he got a brand new puppy and it was a

413
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 7: great day. Brought it over to my house in Arizona

414
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 7: when I used to live there, and just kind of

415
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 7: had that little connection, you know, went and talked to him,

416
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 7: asked him some questions like what do we do here?

417
00:16:59,480 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 5: What we got?

418
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 7: You know, gravitated towards him. But I mean the whole group, man,

419
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 7: they just woke me with open arms.

420
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 5: It was awesome.

421
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 4: Hey, real quick the off of that, real quick? What

422
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 4: did he tell you?

423
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,439
Speaker 6: Because I remember getting going to the Astros and I

424
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 6: kind of the same thing. I asked George Springer. I'm like, hey, like,

425
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,280
Speaker 6: you know, I was a big workout guy, and I'm

426
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:17,639
Speaker 6: you know, I go in the weight room and like

427
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 6: nobody's going really in the weight room, And I asked

428
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,679
Speaker 6: George Springer, I'm like, hey, like, what what do we

429
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 6: do here?

430
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 4: Like what's the like, what's the flow?

431
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,199
Speaker 6: He just goes hit or get left behind, dude, Like,

432
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 6: we don't really overthink anything.

433
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:28,400
Speaker 4: We just played baseball.

434
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 6: Like what did he give you on the Brewers when

435
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 6: you ask like, hey, what what to expect?

436
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 7: Be ready at seven? I mean, that's that's the biggest thing.

437
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 7: I feel like, that's that's.

438
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 5: The most important thing.

439
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 7: Not going out checking boxes, just getting in there as

440
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 7: soon as the lights come on, just play ball.

441
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:45,439
Speaker 4: Play like in the end of the all.

442
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 2: I like that line a lot.

443
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 5: That's good.

444
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 2: That's good. They might have to give you another T

445
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 2: shirt in September with that one on it.

446
