We talked to him earlier this week. Good 8 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,519 Speaker 2: to see a familiar face, you know, we know he 9 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: was We always enjoyed talking to Reese. You know, yeah, 10 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,559 Speaker 2: he was always one of the go to guys in 11 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 2: that clubhouse. And you think back Jim like he was 12 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: kind of like thrust immediately into the leadership role right 13 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 2: in twenty seventeen when he came up, We're all sudden, 14 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: you know, through all the rough times, We're like, listen, 15 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 2: we gotta go. Let's go talk to Reese, get his 16 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 2: state of the team. 17 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 3: He's off the bat, one. 18 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 4: Of the big young hopes of the rebuild, and he 19 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 4: became a kind of a pillar of the rebuild. 20 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 3: Team that ended up in the World Series in twenty 21 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 3: twenty two. 22 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 4: But you know, always a class class act, a smart guy, 23 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 4: always a gentleman, very accountable player. You know, he had 24 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 4: a lot of big hits for the Phillies, and it's 25 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 4: easy to be at your locker when the reporters come 26 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 4: in and talk about the nights you had a big hit. 27 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 4: But he's also at his locker when the team wasn't 28 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,759 Speaker 4: going well, when he might have had a bad night. 29 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 4: Very accountable guy, very straightforward guy. So always enjoyed my 30 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 4: dealings with him. I remember the first time I really 31 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 4: heard his name was from Charlie Manuel, like in maybe 32 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 4: like twenty fifteen. Charlie had spent some time watching the 33 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 4: minor leagues and he said, you know, they got a 34 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 4: kid down there who this kid really. 35 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 3: Knows how to drive in runs. 36 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 4: And it was a pretty pretty good scouting report because 37 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 4: Reese didn't know how to drive in runs and had 38 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 4: you know, I remember when he came up in twenty seventeen, 39 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 4: I think he had three o fers and he's kind 40 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 4: of scratching his head. And then we went to San 41 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 4: Diego and he hit two bombs in that big ballpark, 42 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 4: firs first two big league home runs, and one of 43 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 4: them came off the bat like a five iron like 44 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 4: with a beautiful draw landed in the left field seats. 45 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 4: And he goes on to hit eleven home runs in 46 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 4: his first eighteen big league games. So really great debut, 47 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 4: some real memorable moments. Obviously, I think we all remember 48 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 4: the Batspike, and we had some fun talking to him 49 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 4: about that, and we you know, we talked about some 50 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 4: other memorable times in his Phillies tenure. 51 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 2: Well, you had a great I mean, the Mariano rivera 52 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: closer of questions. You brought up the fact that I 53 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 2: love this question and I don't want to give too 54 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 2: much of it away, but you brought up the tradition 55 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: he started with the Phillies, which was given the rock 56 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 2: and roll sign to the bullpen after home runs. And 57 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 2: I wrote about that story a couple of years ago. 58 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 2: Before the twenty twenty three postseason, when Reese was coming 59 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,519 Speaker 2: back from his ACL surgery, there was some some thought 60 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 2: like a small chance that maybe come back and play 61 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: in the World Series. So I said, hey, you know, 62 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 2: he would love to come back, obviously, but even if 63 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 2: he doesn't come back, you know, you're still going to 64 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 2: see some Reese's influences on the field, and you know 65 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: he started that tradition in June of twenty eighteen, Remember 66 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,679 Speaker 2: he broke his jaw at Dodger Stadium. 67 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 3: Because I'll never forget that. 68 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: No yet, he breaks his jaw, he's on the injured list. 69 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 2: He's in the clubhouse after the game. One day, they're 70 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 2: blasting rock and roll music and Hector Narris comes up 71 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 2: to him and gives them like the rock and roll salute. 72 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 2: And then the next day, I guess, or the next 73 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 2: couple of days later, Reese, in his first game back 74 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 2: from the injurlist, hits a home run and so he 75 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 2: flashes the rock and roll signs after the bullpen, and 76 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: the bullpen goes crazy, and next thing you know, Reese 77 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: is doing it every time he homers. And now, Jim, 78 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 2: you see it everywhere everywhere, ever, not just the Phillies. 79 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 2: I saw Cody Clemens brought it to Minnesota the other 80 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 2: night when. 81 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 3: He eats everywhere market Field, It's everywhere. I saw it the. 82 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 4: Other day on ESPN in the NCAA Women's softball tournament. 83 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 4: There you go, So it's it's everywhere. You know, you 84 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 4: salute the bullpen after you hit a home run. You 85 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,080 Speaker 4: know what they're happy for you, I might as well 86 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 4: give him a little love back. 87 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 5: Exactly exactly. 88 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,239 Speaker 3: But yeah, I remember writing that story. 89 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 2: It was a very fun story to write and talking 90 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 2: to Schwarburn Harper about how you know, just a thing 91 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 2: you do now, you know, you hit, you play for 92 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 2: the Phillies, you give the sign to the to the bullpen, 93 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 2: so you know, and Reese is having a really good 94 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 2: season for the Brewers. He's bat in two eighty two, 95 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 2: three eighty four on base eight forty three ops, seven 96 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 2: home runs, twenty nine rbi. So and he's helping the 97 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 2: Brewers who have kind of they come into this series 98 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: playing pretty decent baseball. They're twenty nine and twenty eight, 99 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 2: they have won four in a row. He's playing well, 100 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 2: and uh so you know, Friday night you have Quinn Priest, 101 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 2: or right hander for the Brewers, is one and two 102 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 2: with a four two three Arra facing Taiwan Walker. And 103 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,239 Speaker 2: then Saturday afternoon, four o five start, you've got Chad 104 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 2: Patrick two two nine seven Arra facing Jesus Lozardo. So 105 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 2: those are the first two matchups of this series. So 106 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 2: it should be should be a good series, should be 107 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 2: good to see Reese fans that you know, obviously fans. 108 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 3: He's a fan favorite. 109 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 4: They give him a great ovation when he came back 110 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 4: last year, and I expect they'll do so again. And 111 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 4: then you know the umpire, will y'all play ball and 112 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 4: you'll try to beat him. 113 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 5: Up exactly right. 114 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: So if you can't be before we get to Reece, 115 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: I guessay.

Is it going to feel any differently? 168 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 2: Is it gonna you know, if you thought about it 169 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 2: at all, what's going to be like coming to Philly 170 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 2: for the second time, you know, as a member of 171 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 2: the Brewers, or is it going to be kind of 172 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 2: no big deal At this point. 173 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 5: I think it will be different than the last time. 174 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 5: For sure. 175 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 6: Definitely had some butterflies, so to say, you know, last year, 176 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,079 Speaker 6: just going back for the first time, walking in the 177 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 6: different clubhouse for the first time, seeing everybody again this 178 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 6: year is a little. 179 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 5: Bit more just business as usual. 180 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 6: I think I haven't thought about it too much really 181 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 6: up until this week, mostly for the fact that Phil's 182 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 6: are a great team and we got our work cut 183 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 6: out for us there when we when we when we come. 184 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 5: So I'm sure it will be great. 185 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 6: It always is, you know, playing that Citizens Bank would 186 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 6: be great to see all that bunch of familiar faces 187 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 6: and hopefully beat up on a bunch of old friends. 188 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 2: I was looking at your numbers, I mean, you seem 189 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 2: to be swinging the bat really well, like the traditional 190 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 2: numbers are are are pretty solid, and you're on base 191 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: is where it usually is. Uh, slugging is up for 192 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 2: highest in a few years. And even then you look 193 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,199 Speaker 2: at the advanced metrics, you know, it seems like you're 194 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 2: hitting the ball harder, you're not chasing anything, which is 195 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 2: we never really did anyway. But I mean, is it 196 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 2: just a matter of your you're removed further away from 197 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 2: from the surgery, you know, what can you what can 198 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 2: you tell us about about the your offensive game right now? 199 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it's mostly that just time is our 200 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 6: best friend. I think when it comes to injury, obviously, 201 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 6: to get physically back into the shape or what we 202 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 6: feel like is normal, but also just mentally not being 203 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 6: not being a rehabber, right Like, I just got to 204 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 6: be an athlete and a baseball player this past offseason, 205 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 6: and it gave me a great base I think going 206 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 6: into spring, I've made a little bit of an adjustment 207 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 6: in terms of a load at the plate, and I 208 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 6: think it's just giving me a little bit more time 209 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 6: to see the ball better and earlier. And I think 210 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 6: that's just getting me into good counts. And you know, 211 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 6: I've said this in the past, but I like my 212 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 6: chances when the pitcher has to beat me in the zone. 213 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,839 Speaker 6: So I'm getting myself into good counts right now and 214 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 6: not missing those pitches that are showing up in the middle. 215 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 7: Hey, Reees, let me follow up a little bit on 216 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 7: that one. Was kind of curious, what is that is there? 217 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 7: Can you talk about the specifics of that adjustment or 218 00:10:58,400 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 7: do you feel uncomfortable do whatever? 219 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:00,160 Speaker 5: Oh? 220 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 6: Yeah, sure, It's just I've kind of gone away from 221 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 6: the late kick a little bit. The first couple of 222 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 6: weeks of the season a little up and down. I 223 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 6: felt like I was having good at bats but not 224 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 6: getting great results, missing too many pitches in the middle 225 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 6: of the plate. 226 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 5: So instead of the late. 227 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 6: Kick, I kind of just went back to the way 228 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 6: I used to hit in college, which was an early 229 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 6: toe down or foot down kind of toe to heal move. 230 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 6: And again, like, I think it's making my move, my 231 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 6: my move a little bit more repeatable. My head's moving less, 232 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 6: which again that just makes me see the ball better. 233 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 6: So yeah, nothing nothing too earth shattering, really. I think 234 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 6: I'm just a little bit simpler at the plate and 235 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 6: that's become a lot more repeatable. 236 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 5: Day in and day out over a long season. 237 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 7: And how hard was that to do it in season? 238 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 7: I mean, did you actually make that adjustment in season? 239 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 7: And because a lot of the times, you know, like you, 240 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 7: I don't want to mess with this right now. In 241 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 7: seasons it's sort of a different. 242 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, that can be a slippery slope. I think just 243 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 6: because it was simplifying in a big way instead of 244 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 6: making things a little bit more complicated with what I 245 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 6: was already working with, it made it a little bit easier. 246 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 6: I had been messing around with it in the cage 247 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 6: and batting practice for a couple of days prior to 248 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 6: initiating in the game, and we found ourselves, you know, 249 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 6: kind of up big in the game early against the 250 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 6: A's and I came up with two outs and nobody 251 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 6: on and just said, let's let's see what we got, 252 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 6: and of course I ended up I ended up hitting 253 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 6: a home run. So I was like, okay, well that's 254 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 6: that's some early results. And then later on in the game, 255 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 6: we're facing a pretty nasty right hand or arms and 256 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 6: elbows flailing at you and a big sinker ball ended 257 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 6: up getting a base hit to right field and that 258 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 6: at bat, which was pretty much all I needed to see. 259 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 6: So we just continue to explore that and trying to 260 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 6: make it normal now. But again, I just think simplifying 261 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 6: has really been my best friend. 262 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 8: If you're a card collector or you'd like to get 263 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 8: into card collecting, may I suggest Arena Club and Slab packs, 264 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 8: which means that you can rip the packs digitally and 265 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 8: of course get the card that you want. It's also 266 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,839 Speaker 8: the most trusted name in the. 267 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 9: Game, and I would rather rip packs these days on 268 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 9: my phone than sit next to you and have you 269 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 9: grabbing one of my physical packs if I was grabbing one. 270 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't need me grabbing your packs, because last 271 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: time you grabbed one. It ended up like this card, 272 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: so let's not have that. And that's why Arena Club 273 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: is great. They send them to you in these fancy 274 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: protectors like the Scout Brown card that we have here, 275 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: and they'll come safe. They're already graded. Or you could 276 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: do like I do and just leave my cards in 277 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 1: the showroom and never actually see them physically. Yeah, but 278 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,119 Speaker 1: they're safe, protected and if I want to so I can't. 279 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: Buy sell trade. 280 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 9: They offer full transparency, showing every card in the slab 281 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 9: pack with the likelihood of pulling each one, so you 282 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 9: know exactly what's available before you buy. Get twenty percent 283 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 9: off your first slab pack or card purchase by going 284 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 9: to arenaclub dot com, slash foul and use code foul. 285 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 4: That's really interesting stuff for you. So it's great to 286 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 4: see you, buddy, because I remember the leg kick. It 287 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 4: was born in the batting cage in Clearwater at the 288 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 4: stadium in Clearwater when you were I thinking a ball 289 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 4: or no. It was instructional League after your first year 290 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 4: with Andy Tracy, Joe Jordan and those guys, So. 291 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 3: It really served you well for a whole bunch of years. 292 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 6: Right, Oh, one hundred percent and you know, I think, 293 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 6: to Ruben's point, it's hard to ditch the date that 294 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 6: you brought to the dance, or that maybe even got 295 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 6: you to the dance. But I was just sick of 296 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 6: missing being late basically, So my my goal is just 297 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 6: to be on time more. But yeah, certainly right, Like 298 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 6: the leg kick was written about and talked about a bunch, 299 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 6: and I really think it helped me propel into, you know, 300 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 6: being an established player in this in this game, but 301 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 6: now having some experience and knowing what it's like to 302 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 6: hit in the big leagues, especially with you know. 303 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 5: Stuff the way that it is now. 304 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 6: From the pitching standpoint, sometimes you gotta make adjustments, and 305 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 6: that's what this game calls for. 306 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 5: So I just decided it was time. 307 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 4: So, you know, you mentioned when the pitch is in 308 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 4: the zone, you like your chances. And as Todd mentioned, 309 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 4: we're taping on Tuesday, a few days before you come 310 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 4: to town with the Brewers, and you know, pitching the zone, 311 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 4: and like I said, it's Tuesday, and oh, Spencer Strider. 312 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 3: Strider is pitching in Philadelphia on Tuesday night. 313 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 4: And when I think of Spencer Stryder, I think of 314 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 4: you not missing in that in that playoff series, hitting 315 00:15:58,040 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 4: that humungo. 316 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 3: Home run and. 317 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 4: And then that unbelievable, cathartic batspike that you could feel 318 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 4: all the way up to Center City. And when I 319 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 4: think of that kind of iconic moment, I think Chase Suttley. 320 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 4: We had him on the podcast a while back and 321 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 4: we asked him about, you know, his WFC and where's 322 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 4: the coolest place you ever heard somebody yell that to him? 323 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 4: And he said, in a clothing store in London and 324 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 4: on a ski slope in Switzerland. So I'm wondering, like, 325 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 4: anywhere interesting somebody has brought up that hallacious batspike. 326 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 6: Definitely not as cool as a ski slope in Switzerland, 327 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 6: but that's okay, And Chase is a little bit cooler 328 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 6: than I am, and I'm cool with that. Maybe some 329 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 6: common ground that you know, I can find with the 330 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 6: people of Philadelphia. 331 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 5: I got. 332 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 6: I got a congrats and an awesome moment from a 333 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 6: New Yorker while we were playing the Mets last year 334 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 6: in a coffee shop, you know, just saying hey, that 335 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:07,120 Speaker 6: was incredible, as somebody else who doesn't like the Braves 336 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 6: was pretty was pretty cool from a baseball standpoint to 337 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,479 Speaker 6: see that happen and just the emotion that you were 338 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 6: playing with. So maybe not as cool, but maybe more unlikely. 339 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 6: Let's say that, so that that's pretty cool, but. 340 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 3: A cool moment. 341 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 4: I mean that you gotta does that still that moment 342 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 4: still make kind of the hair on the back of 343 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 4: your next stand up. 344 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 6: The playoffs, Jim, you know, like that's yeah, it's the 345 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 6: It's what we played for as athletes. I still think 346 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 6: the coolest part about the whole thing was the fact 347 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 6: that it was the first game at Citizens Bank, and 348 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 6: you know, a decade playoff game in over a decade there, 349 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 6: so just a lot coming together in one moment, and 350 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:55,719 Speaker 6: you know, pretty memorable because of it. 351 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 2: I can't I think I might have asked you this 352 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 2: in the past, but we're where is the bat? Do 353 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 2: you have it displayed somewhere or somebody just kind of 354 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 2: keeps it in a box in the corner, and like, you know, 355 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 2: when I'm done playing baseball, I'll throw it up on 356 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 2: a wall in the trophy case or something like that. 357 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's it's I'm in the middle of a move 358 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 6: and a remodel back home, so not displayed, but I 359 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 6: know exactly where it is and I'm sure at some 360 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 6: point it will end up on a wall so that 361 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 6: you know, that story can be talked about as much 362 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 6: as we want. Really, but yeah, know exactly where it is. 363 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 6: Use it throughout the playoffs, because how can you not 364 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 6: after that and ended up I think switching in the 365 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 6: World Series, getting some new wood and told Phil, hey, 366 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 6: let's let's make sure we know where this one's at. 367 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 6: I want, I want to make sure I have this 368 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 6: one so it's back home. But yeah, eventually we'll end 369 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 6: up on a wall. 370 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 5: Hey. 371 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 7: The Brewers obviously have a great fan base. 372 00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 2: They love their their their brew crew. 373 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 7: I'm just kind of curious as far as fan bases 374 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 7: are concerned. You know, there's Philadelphia and there's other cities. 375 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 7: How do these two compare and what you're feeling when 376 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 7: you when you try to when you're connecting with them. 377 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 6: Well, I think I think their love for their team 378 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 6: is they're they're both admirable fan bases in that regard. 379 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 5: But it's. 380 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 6: Obviously know as a home player, I only know two. 381 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 6: But I get the impression that it's hard to compare 382 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 6: fan bases to the Philly fan base for good and 383 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 6: for bad. 384 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 5: Really, but. 385 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean these people up here in the Midwest 386 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 6: and Wisconsin, they they love their sports. They're they're they're 387 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 6: die hard in different ways. You know, every day game 388 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 6: we have tailgators from well when when we're pulling up 389 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 6: to the ballpark, people are there, it's just, yeah, it's 390 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 6: just different, not bad by any means or in any way, 391 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 6: but they do love their sports up here, and we 392 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 6: definitely feel that we had a great crowd yesterday, got 393 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 6: to have the roof open. Summer is coming here in 394 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 6: Wisconsin and the people look forward to that. 395 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 5: We definitely feel that on the field. 396 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 2: How would you compare Rob Thompson to Pat Murphy. Seemed 397 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 2: like different guys, but two guys maybe both enjoyed, you know, playing. 398 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 6: For Yeah, definitely different, but both just baseball baseball guys 399 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 6: at their core. Obviously a ton of years of experience 400 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 6: from on both sides. Murph a ton of experience in 401 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 6: college baseball, and I think we we tend to see 402 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 6: that sometimes with his emotions on his sleeve, but we 403 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 6: love that as as his players. We know exactly what 404 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 6: we're getting as soon as we walk in the clubhouse, 405 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 6: stores about where he's at and what he expects of us. 406 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 6: Whereas Thomps and I think this maybe has a little 407 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 6: bit to do with the type of clubhouse that each 408 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 6: manager has. But you know, Thomps is super level headed, 409 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 6: trust his guys that they're gonna, you know, do what 410 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 6: they need to do to prepare for the game that night, 411 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 6: and kind of just goes out and let and lets 412 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 6: some of that happen, steps in when he feels like 413 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,919 Speaker 6: he needs to. But Murph is is ready to you know, 414 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 6: light a fire under us that really at any moment, 415 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 6: because that's just how he approaches his life with with intensity. 416 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 6: But also, you know, I think both know how to 417 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 6: keep a room light when it's needed, and that's you know, 418 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 6: super helpful over one hundred and sixty two game season 419 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 6: when we really can get lost in the in the. 420 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 5: Shuffle of the day to day. 421 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 6: So both both amazing guys, different, but I feel pretty 422 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 6: lucky to have played for both. 423 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:56,479 Speaker 3: I know you're focused on your team and your season. 424 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 4: Do you ever use a like a half a glance 425 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 4: to keep track of the Phillies and your old friends, 426 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,160 Speaker 4: keep in touch with anybody and how they're doing. 427 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I do. 428 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 6: I mean, Jim, I'm I'm a baseball fan, so I 429 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 6: I just I watch, you know, what's going on around 430 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 6: the league.

He's still a Packers fan. 492 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 4: You guys want to do any Milwaukee. 493 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 2: Thing, Well, I mean, I'm just if he if he 494 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 2: checked out, like, I don't even know if you have 495 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 2: time like Summerfest any of those types of things. Have 496 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 2: you gotten down to the lake shore and seeing any 497 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 2: concerts or anything like that. 498 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 6: Unfortunately, no, just with obviously with our schedule. I lived 499 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 6: right down in that summerfest area at the start of 500 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,959 Speaker 6: last season, so definitely got a sense of, you know, 501 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 6: what goes on, Well, that's that's kind of that whole 502 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 6: area down there, and really even into downtown is there's 503 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 6: something going on outside every single day. Whether it's concerts 504 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 6: or some sort of cultural festival. It's just I think 505 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,639 Speaker 6: a great excuse for the people of the city to 506 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 6: be outside. But there's always something going on down there. 507 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 6: I learned that pretty quickly. 508 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 2: That's because the summer lasts like three months, so you 509 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 2: have to like squeeze out everything day you can, because 510 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 2: if you don't go outside, it's going to be you know, 511 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:45,199 Speaker 2: forty degrees in September fifteenth. So so but you know 512 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 2: when when when I see you, obviously a lot of 513 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 2: different fun Phillies moments come into my head pop in 514 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 2: my head. And when I wanted asking you kind of 515 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 2: jogged my memory because you talked about running into the 516 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 2: New York Fan up in New York. Was that ridiculously 517 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:04,239 Speaker 2: slow home run trot at at at City Field? What 518 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 2: do you remember about that? And do you does anybody 519 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 2: ever still mention that one? Because that one always makes 520 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,959 Speaker 2: me brings a smile to my face because it was 521 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 2: so much fun, and I think it was so much 522 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 2: fun for Phillies fans as well, because you know, Phillies Mets. 523 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 6: Sure, yeah, I mean rivalries in general, right like that 524 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 6: one does not get brought up. It was pretty early 525 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,360 Speaker 6: on in my career, and something has happened between now 526 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 6: and then with myself and the Mets that maybe gets 527 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 6: talked about first when that's brought up. But what do 528 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 6: I remember, you know, again, getting thrown at a couple 529 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 6: of times up near the head area, which none of 530 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 6: us hitters like. So I guess found a great opportunity 531 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 6: to take a little pettiness back to them, and again 532 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 6: all in good competition to disrespect anybody, but I felt 533 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,719 Speaker 6: like I had maybe earned that a little bit on 534 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 6: that one. 535 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 5: Yeah. 536 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,640 Speaker 4: One thing I forgot about reeseis you are a trendsetter. 537 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 3: And you know where I'm going with this. 538 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,120 Speaker 4: With the with the high five to the bullpen after 539 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 4: a whole run, It's right done everywhere now, I see 540 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 4: it in college baseball time, you know, major leagues, minor leagues. 541 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 4: It's in college. I'm sure it's in high school ball 542 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 4: when a kid, you know, hits a home run, how 543 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 4: does that they ought to call that the hoskins? I mean, 544 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 4: how does that feel to have that impact on the game. 545 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I notice it for sure, and then 546 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 6: go back to, you know, the conversations with you guys 547 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 6: about where did that come from and how did that start? 548 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 6: And it doesn't get I don't people don't talk to 549 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 6: me about that a little bit. People in my family, 550 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 6: you know, kind of mention that as well. But yeah, 551 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 6: it's it's awesome, really like it's it's such a cool thing. Again, 552 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 6: I think that we should we should acknowledge those guys 553 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 6: out there more often. You know, we're always looking at 554 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 6: the dugout. I mean I even notice guys now sometimes 555 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,959 Speaker 6: on base hits or doubles, they look towards the bullpen 556 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 6: first before they look towards the dugout. So I'm always 557 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 6: curious to see what guys do, right, Like, what what's 558 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 6: their their mode of salute? I guess to say out there, 559 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 6: And there's some pretty good ones and creative ones too. 560 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 6: So definitely a cool thing, and you know, something that 561 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 6: I hope continues continues really you should. 562 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 4: You should be you should be proud of that because 563 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,719 Speaker 4: it's symbolic the kind of teammate you were a very 564 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 4: inclusive guy in that clubhouse, bringing people together. 565 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 3: So that's off. 566 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 5: I appreciate it.
