1 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: What's up, guys? 2 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 2: How are you happy? 3 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,479 Speaker 1: Monday? Welcome in to another episode of the Diligence Podcast. 4 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,240 Speaker 1: Will be Matt Perrault at Sports Talk. Matt to follow 5 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: me across all socials. Last week, small winning week. I'll 6 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,200 Speaker 1: do a full accounting later in the week on last week, 7 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,319 Speaker 1: but it's late. I've been at the beach all day 8 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: and I just had to get this out because Monday 9 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,520 Speaker 1: is a complete and total dead sports day. There's no WNBA, 10 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,200 Speaker 1: there's no baseball. All there is is the home run Derby. 11 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: So one in two day yesterday we got one of 12 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,919 Speaker 1: the WNBA bits right, the other one under right, one 13 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: under wrong. Baseball did not go the way we wanted 14 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 1: to Reds to not cover on the run line. That 15 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: lost the game outright to the Marlins. Actually, so that 16 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: goes down. But we do have the home run Derby 17 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: and that's happening here tonight. Look, this is going to 18 00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: be weird week. We have the home run derby tonight, 19 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: All Star game on Tuesday, the dead day Wednesday, there 20 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: is WNBA to bet on Wednesday, and then we get 21 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: back into things coming up on Thursday. 22 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 2: So it's July. 23 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: It's officially the dead of summer, but we do have 24 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: the home run derby happening here tonight. Now, Globe Life 25 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: Field is where we're going. The dimensions of this ballpark 26 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 1: left field three twenty nine, left center three seventy two, 27 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: center field four oh seven deep part of the ballpark, 28 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: right center three seventy four, right field three twenty six, 29 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: and the backstop is forty two feet away. So that's 30 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:42,479 Speaker 1: how the back that's how Globefield is. Okay, not a 31 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: great home run hitting ballpark. But there are two bets 32 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make here for us, and they're both gonna 33 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: be for a half a unit, and it's gonna be 34 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: a Monday, and these are just for fun. Okay, I 35 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: don't like these bets. I'm gonna be honest with you. 36 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: I don't like these plays. This is just here we are. 37 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: You know, who knows what these guys do in a setting? 38 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: Right? 39 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: We have no clue what they're gonna do. But pet 40 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: Alonzo has been a dominant force in this tournament. Everyone's 41 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: betting pet A Lonzo's because he loves it, he practices it. 42 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: It's a big deal to him. But I think the 43 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: kid's got a chance here. Gunner Henderson is plus four 44 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 1: point thirty to win the home run Derby. Gunner Henderson's 45 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: had a tremendous start to his season this. 46 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 2: Year for the Orioles. He has been electric. 47 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: He has been dominant at the plate this season, and 48 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: he's a guy who has over one hundred and eight 49 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: hits already. He's got sixty three RBIs, twenty eight home runs, 50 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: betting two eighty six. He's been tremendous, and I think 51 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: there's a chance that we see Gunner Henderson with a 52 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: guy who could potentially put up some big numbers here 53 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,799 Speaker 1: left handed bat. Okay, in a ballpark with a three 54 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: to twenty six right field porch, maybe a chance to 55 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: capitol on this once again, if you don't know the 56 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: format of how this thing is going to be done 57 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: for the home run Derby, it is pretty interesting because 58 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: it is a different type of format that we haven't 59 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: seen that we haven't seen before. But this format has 60 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: been more about where we're going to go in terms 61 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: of how it's supposed to look like, and it's just 62 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: it's different. Okay, this is not your typical old school 63 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: home run derby. So what they have done is everyone's 64 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: gonna go first. There's no seating in the first round, 65 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: all eight guys go to try to hit home many 66 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: home runs as possible. Then the top four will advance 67 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: to the semi final. In the event there's a tie 68 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: to multiple players, the longest home run distance will be 69 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: a tiebreaker. That's important, Okay, longest home run distance to 70 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: be the tiebreaker in the semis it's one verses four 71 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: and two verses three. The scene would be determined about 72 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: the amount of home runs hit in the first round 73 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: as time goes. This is where we get into the 74 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: different type of hitters. If they're a line drive hitter, 75 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: they struggle. They're a home run hitter, there're more be 76 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: inclined to get the ball out as fast as possible. 77 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: But I'm going to take a flyer on the kid 78 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: for a half a unit. Gunner Henderson's been tremendous leading 79 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: off games for the Orioles hitting home runs. I'm gonna 80 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: take Gunner Henderson to win the home run derby at 81 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: plus four thirty. Half a unit down on Gunner Henderson 82 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 1: at plus four thirty to win the home run derby, 83 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 1: and look at the tie break is going to be 84 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: the longest distance. I think, guys, you're gonna swing for 85 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: the fences literally for this. Four eighty four and a 86 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: half is the number. Longest home run will be over 87 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: four hundred and eighty four and a half feet in 88 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,720 Speaker 1: the home run Derby. It's mis one twelve bet that 89 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: to win a half a unit. It's a little zero 90 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 1: point six to win a half a unit coming back. Okay, 91 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: that's it for us here on a Monday. It's a 92 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: chance to have some fun. You can do what you want. 93 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 1: I like Gunner Henderson, I like the longest home run 94 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: to go over. I will see what ends up happening 95 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: here as we get to the home run Derby, but 96 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: hopefully some excitement here for the home run Derby and 97 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: then we get ourselves going into the All Star Game 98 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,559 Speaker 1: on Tuesday. Once again, Gunnar Henderson to win the derby 99 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: at plus four thirty over four eighty four and a 100 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: half longest individual home run distance wise minus one twelve 101 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: bet both those bets to win a half unit. Okay, 102 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 1: not a long podcast, not a lot going on sports wise. 103 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: We'll be back on a Tuesday. We'll get back to 104 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 1: the All Star Game, We'll get back to some other 105 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: things going on. But in the meantime, just a little 106 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 1: home run, derby action, a little over a unit in play, 107 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: just to have some fun minice Matt Parol fumming us 108 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: all socials at sports talk about every single morning, even 109 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: when it's a dead sports day. 110 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 2: It's the daily juice.
