The 60 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: first week Madison baseball is simply outstanding. It is just great. 61 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: So our lead is from Saint Louis. It's not about 62 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: the Cardinals. That is where the New York Mets and 63 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: star Francisco Lindor had a what am I doing? Game? 64 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: Just an awful afternoon against the Red Birds, making not one, 65 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: not one, but two bonehead plays, two bonehead plays. Lindor, 66 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: who has started slow. He Mets have only played six games. 67 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: They're five hundred shortstop Lindor is hitting one forty three. 68 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: I didn't play in the big leagues. I'm told that's 69 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: not good. And the numbers are not great. Now, the 70 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: story here is not about a batting average. That's not great, 71 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: because we all know in the sport of baseball, you 72 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: can get off to a bad week, bad week start, 73 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: and then have two good games and all of a 74 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,360 Speaker 1: sudden you're leading the league in batting average and all 75 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: that stuff. The numbers are very fluid. There's not great. 76 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: It's the subrebral part of the game. It's the mental 77 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: part of the game. Lindor caught a grounder against Saint Louis. 78 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: There he stepped on second rather than throwing to first, 79 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: and it would have been a double play. Would have 80 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: been a double play. He didn't do it. As a result, 81 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: the inning continued. The Mets said to continue out there defensively, 82 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: and that didn't affect the outcome of the game. Per se. 83 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: It is just taboo. It's baseball taboo. Lindor postgame said 84 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 1: it was quote inexcusable and quote I just forgot the outs. 85 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: That's the dagger right there. I forgot the outs. So 86 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: he admitted the obvious. And it's a blow to those 87 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: that said, well, you knew how many outs there were. No, No, 88 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:52,359 Speaker 1: he admitted he didn't know how many outs there were. Okay, fine, 89 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: so you're oblivious. I got that. And then later in 90 00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 1: the game, Francisco Lindor got on base and he was 91 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: caught pulling what we call a hollering James. That's a 92 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 1: hollering James. He was caught napping. They lead at first base, 93 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: unable to get back to the bag in time, and 94 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 1: easy out for the cars. Easy out. So couple of 95 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: real dumb, dumb plays by Francisco Lindor. That is a 96 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question for 97 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: the esteem panel. Can you give me a word? Can 98 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 1: you give me a word for metstar Francisco Lindor forgetting 99 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: how many outs there were? So I've got on this one. 100 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: I've got butterflies, whistle and gateway, and we will combine 101 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: all of these things together and you and I are 102 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: going to have an amazing solid start to this hour. 103 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: All right, So first of all, my word, what is 104 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: the word for Francisco Lindor forgetting on how many outs 105 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: there were? My word is flatulence with a capital F, 106 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: full blown stadium clearing brain fart by Lindor. Francisco Lindoor. 107 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: You've got a sound of it right there. I ate 108 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: a lot of garlic and drank some soda pop and 109 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: all that. So three hundred and forty one million dollars 110 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: centerpiece of the infield. We are talking about the Mona 111 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: Lisa of Queens and Mona Lisa of Queens and he's 112 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: out there daydreaming. It's forgetting how many outs. If you've 113 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: ever been to a little league baseball game, maybe you 114 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: played in one, or you have kids, that's little league 115 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: baseball right there. That's t ball, Tommy. Francisco Lindoor is 116 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: t ball, Tommy wandering off to chase butterflies. Well, Tommy, 117 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: you've got to be ready if the balls hit to you. Well, 118 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: there's some there's some butterflies out here, though, coach, I 119 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: got to see the button. But no, no, Tommy, you 120 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: could get hurt. 121 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 2: Nah. 122 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, but there was a there was a beautiful butterfly. 123 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: And there's some really good flowers out there in the outfield. 124 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: I don't know why there's flowers in the outfield, but 125 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: they're they're there. So Lindor turned a routine what would 126 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: have been a routine big league double play, into some 127 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: kind of interpretive dance routine. We're not sure why. Stepped 128 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: on second and then freezes, and the whole thing smells 129 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: like some rotting baloney, some rotting baloney. And then oh 130 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: it gets better, but wait, there's more. It gets better. 131 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: So he's on base later gets picked off like he's 132 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: playing freeze tag oopsid daisy oopsid dazy right, that whole thing. 133 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: So that's a two for the price of one special 134 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: comedy of errors, Broadway level buffoonery from Francisco Lindor. Now, 135 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: the reason this is more interesting. It's only six games. 136 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: Who cares, well, No, we have a talk show to 137 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: do every day, and so this is our talk show today, 138 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: and this is the story today, and we're talking about 139 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: the story right now because this is the story. Keep 140 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: in mind, though the Mets brain trust that the people 141 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: involved in picking the players, they shipped out all of 142 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: the character guys, the clubhouse guys for the Mets to 143 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: pacify Lindor and Wan. So I've talked about Brandon, Nimmo, 144 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: and Pete Alonzo. Alonzo wasn't brought back. Nimo was traded 145 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: Jeff McNeil, longtime metal, He's not very good. He was 146 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: also sent pack. So the front office bent the knee. 147 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: I think anyone can disagree with that to make the 148 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:39,960 Speaker 1: regime of Lindor and Sodo happy. And the early return 149 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: on investment the ROI is not looking so good here. 150 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: It's a long season, but we have a show to 151 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: do today. Situational awareness, no gone gone, gone gone. God 152 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: got on vacation with visions of sugar plums dancing in 153 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: his head. Probably so malar scale of embarrassment Francisco and 154 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: or three hundred and forty million dollar New York Mets 155 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: star Francisco Lindor forgetting how many outs there are and 156 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: getting getting caught napping. Mallard scale of embarrassment one to ten, 157 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:15,359 Speaker 1: one to ten, We're to nine point two borderline toxicity. 158 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: You're going to die all right now. Secondly to Miami, 159 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: I was getting text messages from my pal marlins Man, 160 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: who was not at the Marlins game. He was at 161 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: the Miami Heat game as the Boston Celtics put the 162 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 1: whammie on the Heat the early knockout punch. They put 163 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: up a fifty plus burger in the first quarter, and 164 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: if I text marlins Man, I said, hey, can you 165 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: play defense? The Heat need you on the court. He 166 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: did not appreciate my comedic attempt. The story here in 167 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 1: Miami though about the baseball team, which is rare. The 168 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: Marlins are off to a good start early in the season. 169 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: They had a dominating pitching performance by guy that was 170 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 1: an absolute turd. Last year, Sandy al Contara through a 171 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: complete game shutout against the Triple A White Sox, struck 172 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: out I think it was seven and allowed just three hits. 173 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 1: It was a ten tohing game. The game ended in 174 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: mercy rule unless it didn't. Unless it didn't, so al 175 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: Contera Sandy the player's first name. So he then decided 176 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: to have some fun and poke the empty stadium in 177 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: South Florida. He said postgame on Marlin's radio, I'm sure 178 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: that's just rivening. Sandy Alcantera said, it's been a long 179 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: time without throwing a complete game, but this one is 180 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: so special for me. Okay, that's a great quote. That's 181 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:45,199 Speaker 1: a generic raw raw quote. Quote continues, all my family 182 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: was here, fans are not here, but we still love them. 183 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: He wasn't kidding. The attendance for that Marlins White Sox 184 00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 1: game six thousand, five hundred and five, that's it. Witnessed 185 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: the thirteenth career complete game for Sandy al Kantara of 186 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: the Marlin. So the question where are you at on 187 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: the ace of the Marlins Sandy al Kantara roasting the 188 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: fans for not supporting the hometown team. So it's it's 189 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: pretty obviously they're not this a spring training crowd, Like 190 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: that's a big crowd in spring training, six five hundred people. 191 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 1: That's not a major league environment. It's not a big 192 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: league environment at all. That is a library. They put 193 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: a popcorn maker and a hot dog stand in. That's 194 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: what that is. And al Kantara knows it and every man, 195 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: woman and child knows it. And so my theory here, 196 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: this is an original malor theory. Nobody else has this. 197 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: They all can have their way and steal it later. 198 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: This is my original theory. Al Contaro was blowing into 199 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: the whistle, the dog whistlef the dog whistle, loud and clear. 200 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: He's ready right now. He's ready to go on Zillow's. 201 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 1: He likes Miami. It's a great place to live and 202 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: all that. Not a great place to be an athlete 203 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: with the Marlins. So he's dune ski with South FLOORID. 204 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: He can live there in the offseason and that's it, 205 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 1: and that's fine. That whistle whistle while you work is like, 206 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: get me out of here. I want to be in 207 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: a real major league town with these things called fans. 208 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,199 Speaker 1: I would like that someplace like I don't know, the 209 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: Dodgers or the Yankees, of the Red Sox and usual 210 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 1: suspects the Cubs, somewhere where the building actually has some energy, 211 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 1: where it jumps. The Marlins are in this place called 212 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: the Twilight Zone. They really are. And the first World 213 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 1: Series I ever attended was a Marlins World Series. Years ago, 214 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: I played a team called the Cleveland Indians, the don't 215 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: even thin exist. They were killed. They were exterminated. The 216 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:00,199 Speaker 1: Clevelandians Wolkesters killed them, tossed him off a bridge, and 217 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: then they named the team after the bridge. Up were 218 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: very nice that I saw the Marlins win a World Series. 219 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: The stadium was packed. I still remember driving back to 220 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,319 Speaker 1: my hotel after the game and the Cuban fans in Miami. 221 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: They were having a field that is the greatest thing 222 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: in the world. They were partying out in the streets 223 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: and honking horns and blowing whistles and banging on pots 224 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: and pans, and it was awesome. I still have all 225 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: these years later, I still remember that sound. And that 226 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: was the Marlins winning the World Series. And they won 227 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: another World Series about ten years or so after that, 228 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 1: so they had a couple of moments. But the franchise 229 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: is stuck in the twilight zone. They are they caught 230 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: in the middle. They're not a big league team, they're 231 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 1: not a Triple A team. They're like a four A team, 232 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: somewhere in between Triple A and the major leagues, and 233 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: they get to play the big league teams. They're essentially 234 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: spam because these other teams need someone to play and 235 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,000 Speaker 1: the Marlins. The whole motto of the franchise is it's 236 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: kind of like fishing, where they say, well, you can 237 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: catch it, but you have to release it. It's catch 238 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: and release fishing is what you occasionally get some good players. 239 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 1: You'll find by dumb luck. You'll find a couple of 240 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: good ballplayers, and then as soon as they get really good, 241 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: you flip them to a real big league team and 242 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: then that's it. Then they go off and win MVPs 243 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: and get to the World Series and things like that, 244 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: and that magical ballpark experience. If you've ever wondered what 245 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: it would be like if a baseball team played in 246 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: a mausoleum, It's Forrest Lawn with a pitching mound, Marlins Ballpark. 247 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: It's crazy. I'd flip around. I'll go to the Marlins game. 248 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, man, when win in the game starts, Oh, 249 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 1: it's already the fifth inning. My god. Now, I did 250 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: cover a team, the Clippers, back in the nineties, who 251 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 1: had similar experiences. We used to call the LA Sports 252 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: Arena the mausoleum, and we would occasionally in radio row 253 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: we would be bored. And that was back when radio 254 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: covered these games. And we would literally count the number 255 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: of people at the La Memorial Sports Arena, and there 256 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: were that few people we could counted. Now, I've been 257 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: told by Boots on the ground of Miami, the Marlins 258 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: even that number sixty five hundred, that number is embellished, 259 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: that they aren't even that many people. There have been 260 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: games with less than three thousand people at Marlins games. 261 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: But I just all come, Terra, he's believe he's gonna 262 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: be gone by the trade deadline is in July. And 263 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: this is like, Hey, I'm gonna pitch well. I didn't 264 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: pitch well last year on pitch well, now you look 265 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: at the contract. Things lifeless there, even though the Marlins 266 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: are off to a good week in the season and 267 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: all that joyless and things are looking bleak. So we'll see, 268 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: all right, final thought, we going out of Baltimore baseball 269 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: history at Camden Yards for the Orioles, who are literally 270 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: serving the media. I've heard from my friends in Baltimore 271 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: dog food. They've decided, all right, if you cover the Orioles, 272 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: we're gonna serve you dog food, and we're going to 273 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: give you the honor of paying fifteen dollars for the 274 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: dog food. 275 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 3: Arf. 276 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right. Anyway, So in a Major League first, 277 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 1: a Big League first, a game has now ended on 278 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 1: a walk off challenge. It has happened. The modern twist 279 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: coming from the Arrangers Orioles game batter Evan Carter, took 280 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:28,439 Speaker 1: a called called ball on a one to two pitch. 281 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: I know edon Arlington was watching this with two outs 282 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: in the top of the ninth. However, the Orioles catcher, 283 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 1: as Samuel Basayo, placed the place to bet. He he 284 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: had a hunch, and he bet a bunch, not really 285 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 1: a bunch. He challenged the call, the Orioles catcher Samuell 286 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: and so they go to the ensuing review, the Automated 287 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 1: Ball strike challenge, and it revealed a ninety five point 288 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: two mile an hour fastball from Albert Suarez clipping the 289 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: very top of the strike zone, very top of the 290 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: strike zone on the outside corner, and it was strike three. 291 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: And that's all she wrote. Turn out the Lats, the 292 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 1: parties over abs technology deciding its first game officially in 293 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: the Big League's a game ending because the bots, A 294 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: game ending because of the bots. Orioles one eight to 295 00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: three over Texas. So the question where do you see 296 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 1: this robot umpires storyline going next. That's the question. So 297 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: this is baseball being manipulated by the Silicon Valley algorithm 298 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: while wearing yoga pants essentially here and right now using 299 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: the malor Rosetta stone. This is what I would call 300 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: a gateway, A gateway way drug is what it is. 301 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: Right now. It's hey, we're gonna challenge muse the challenge system. 302 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: That's the way we're gonna do it. 303 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 4: Here. 304 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: It's cute, it's harmless. It's dip your toe in the 305 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: water stuff. And that's how it's gonna go. Give it 306 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: five five minutes or five years, and they're gonna fus 307 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: around more right, They're gonna turn to some skullduggery here 308 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: and before you know it, the home plate umpire will 309 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: be as you have a better chance of seeing a 310 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: wooly mammoth than a home plate umpire. This is say, well, 311 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: we're gonna get rid of it, and that's it. It'll 312 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: become extinct. It'll be like you ever see a rotary phone, 313 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,400 Speaker 1: you know, we see a rotary phone and an antique 314 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: shop you see a rotary phone. So it's gonna the 315 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 1: umpire vinyl plate's gonna be gone. That's it extinct. It'll 316 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 1: all be done in a laboratory. And that's where baseball 317 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: is being Frankenstein under the spineless Commissioner in real time. 318 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: And and you'll have I've heard they're gonna go with 319 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: like a red light green light thing where you have 320 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: a it's like a carnival game. Carnival game from Major 321 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 1: League Baseball sponsored by some tech bro and Palatto who 322 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 1: thinks he invented oxygen and wants everyone to know about 323 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: it and all that. And so we're now in this 324 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 1: era of the perfection or bust part of baseball. Younger 325 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: fans they don't want they expect umpires to be perfect. 326 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 1: They expect umpires to be greaded like uber drivers four 327 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,360 Speaker 1: point nine or you're out four point nine or you're 328 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: out zero tolerance. Now, my generation, we understood the umpire 329 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 1: was part of the chaos, and then each umpire was unique. 330 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: There were different strike zones in the American League to 331 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,160 Speaker 1: the National League, and it was just part of the game. 332 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: It was seasoning. Bad calls were part of the game, 333 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: and you just you toughen it up and you move on. 334 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 1: Now you cannot have bad calls. You cannot have Oh 335 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: my god, people say mean things. You make a bad call. 336 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: It's a felony. It is a freaking felony. Uh it is. 337 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: And so we're shaving baseball down, down, down, down, down, 338 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: down to millimeters. We're turning the drama. We're kind of twisting. 339 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,959 Speaker 1: So well this is drama. Well yeah, that's kind of drama. 340 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: But it's not the same. It's it's it's it's it's 341 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: you're taking the human element out of it, and you're 342 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: turning this into like an app on your phone, and 343 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: it's like, well, there's a lot of screen time and 344 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: all that, and you know what's coming next. We're gonna 345 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: have mark my words somehow, some way, some super dork, 346 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 1: some super dork is gonna compareachuting down just like that, 347 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: and we're going to have an ABS scandal. Well that's impossible, 348 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: no way, because no one ever gets hacked, right, there's 349 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: never data leaks, no one ever gets hacked. Uh, there'll 350 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 1: be a glitch, there'll be a mysterious update system updating situation. 351 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 1: The Houston eh strows. Yeah, they've already mastered the cheating, 352 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 1: all right, So they've took out the trash cans one time. 353 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: Now they're well, they're downloading the strike zone and all that, 354 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: updating the strike zone system, updating system, updating. Well, it 355 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 1: seems like the Astros strike zone when they're hitting is 356 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: much smaller, and when they're pitching, it's much larger. I 357 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: wonder how that happened. It must be Orbit's fault. It's 358 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: got to be Orbit's fault. The mascot.
