19
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: after the big global win Coach with the kids.

20
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got to go back and think about all

21
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 3: this stuff we've done since then it was incredible. I

22
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 3: mean the fact that it ended the way it did. Uh,

23
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 3: you know, that's a that's a dream for a lot

24
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 3: of us at the early ages, when we go in

25
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 3: the backyards and we plan things through our minds and

26
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,479
Speaker 3: in a three t tie tie game in the last inning,

27
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 3: it's the World Series, it's the last game, and to

28
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 3: let it be hit out, you know, to hit them

29
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 3: all out to win the game and celebrate. I mean,

30
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 3: it's like what Kirk Gibson did in the Dodgers, you know,

31
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 3: and that wasn't to win the series, but that was

32
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 3: to win a game. It was so big, so you

33
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 3: imagine what what that was and what that feels like.

34
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 3: And so afterwards it was just you know, shock of like,

35
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 3: oh my god, what do we just do? And then

36
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 3: it was like pure joy. And then it was like

37
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 3: we all cried together because that was our mission for

38
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 3: three years, is to get to the World Series and

39
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 3: then win it all. And we just did that. We

40
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 3: dreamt it, and we're still on cloud nine and I'm exhausted.

41
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 3: I wish I was sleeping on the cloud, but unfortunately

42
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 3: I'm not.

43
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: Coach Danny el Segondo World Champion Little leaguers and the

44
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: sound of your voice, I can tell it motivates, Like

45
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 1: just the cadence of your voice is a motivating factor.

46
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: And I know you've talked about winning a lot, right,

47
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: I was reading this. You talk about winning but also

48
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: teaching the kids the right way to win? What does

49
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: that mean? I think that's interesting.

50
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 3: So you know I teach, I'm a lot. I'm a lot.

51
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 3: I'm a big motivator of life lessons through sports. Right,

52
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 3: So everything you do as coaches or I do as

53
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 3: a coach, there's a lesson to be learned. So one

54
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 3: of my mottos is do what others don't today so

55
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 3: you can accomplish what others can't tomorrow. And that goes

56
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 3: a long way, not just in sports, but that goes

57
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 3: a long way in life. Like keep working harder what

58
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 3: you're doing, and you'll pass up the next guy that

59
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 3: maybe had had more talent than you at eight or

60
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 3: nine or ten or eleven or wherever you are in

61
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 3: your life. But if you keep working hard on what

62
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 3: you're doing, you'll get noticed and you'll pass those guys

63
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 3: that have stopped, you know, because they thought they were

64
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 3: big or they thought they were too good. So that's

65
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 3: one of the things I teach. Also, the other thing

66
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 3: I teach is family. I come from a very large family,

67
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 3: all born and raised in Venice Beach, California, and we

68
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 3: always just appreciated family, whether it was through music or

69
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 3: sports or anything else. We always taught that. So I

70
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 3: teach the kids is that if you play like a family,

71
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 3: especially in a team sport, and you know that if

72
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 3: you look to your left, you look to your right,

73
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 3: you know who that's what you're playing for. Those are

74
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 3: your bros, those are your buds, those are your family.

75
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 3: And even if you lose, you still win knowing that

76
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 3: you still have family that loves you no matter what happens.

77
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 3: So we pride ourselves on playing together as a family,

78
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,119
Speaker 3: and that's what took us over the top.

79
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: You come from a good family.

80
00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 3: I can tell, very good, very large Lenin family and Venice,

81
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 3: the Lenin Sisters, the band Venice, the Lawrence Welk Show,

82
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 3: and then my dad's side. Yes, it's a very loving,

83
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 3: wonderful family.

84
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 1: Coach Danny Elsa Gundo Little League World Champions. You want

Speaker 1: bros brothers forever for life. They'll be friends, They'll have

Speaker 3: that's the key of life. You know, we we are

92
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 3: champions because of what we accomplished, right, the family of

93
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 3: the baseball field. But we are family because of the

94
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 3: values we have off the baseball field. And that's a huge,

95
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 3: huge part of life. You know, success in life is

96
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 3: created around building a family type of atmosphere in a

97
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 3: situation like this with a team, that's great.

98
