1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,080
Speaker 1: I broke off my records at home. You're right about

2
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: that up, I know, because I wanted to. I could

3
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: predict when I wanted to do it at times, not always,

4
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:08,800
Speaker 1: but a lot of times.

5
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 2: All Right, while he's getting set up and miked up

6
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 2: a j I mean, talked about Barry quite a bit

7
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 2: on a couple of times.

8
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 3: He said he called me a liar earlier. So we're

9
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 3: going we're gonna ask him.

10
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:26,639
Speaker 4: But but yeah, yeah, well tell me what I want to.

11
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:28,639
Speaker 1: I think I still have.

12
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 4: You have to clip clip.

13
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 3: Barry and I played together two thousand and four. That

14
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 3: was the year where you walked like two hundred and

15
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 3: eighty seven thousand times, right.

16
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, what you're talking about right here?

17
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 3: See yeah, see that's true.

18
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 1: Story, that's true.

19
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 3: See Willie Mays story about he wasn't get to hit

20
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 3: a home run, it was true.

21
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: That's true.

22
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 3: And the Eric Gania story is true.

23
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: Yeah he said it was true.

24
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 3: There was more too, but I couldn't throw the whole

25
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 3: thing out there, right, But but that was true. So

26
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 3: the best hitter I've ever seen, No one's close. I

27
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 3: played against Migulchabara, Triple Crown. I played you know with

28
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 3: and against a lot of people. This guy right here,

29
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 3: different solar system and everyone else. I'm sorry, it just

30
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 3: he was unbelievable.

31
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: Thank you.

32
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 4: What do you think about show Hey, by the way,

33
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 4: he's good. Yeah. Do you watch him a lot?

34
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: No? No, I've been watching the Dodgers all the time.

35
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 1: Then I have to watch the giants that worked there.

36
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 4: True, and I just watch him.

37
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: He's a very talented player.

38
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 4: Okay, different generation, yes, of course.

39
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 3: What do you think about the VLO?

40
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 4: Now?

41
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 3: What did it have affected you?

42
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,759
Speaker 1: Great hitters are gonna be good regardless of what's going on.

43
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,839
Speaker 1: That doesn't matter what is you can hit, You're gonna

44
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 1: hit regardless. The difference just between eras is that no

45
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: one's gonna let you hit three or four home runs

46
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: in a game in my generation as they do now,

47
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: you know. I tell him, like, now, you guys just

48
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: take batting practice in the morning, afternoon and at night. Me.

49
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: I took batting practice at five seven o'clock. I hit

50
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: one home run. I'm gonna duck for the next pitch,

51
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: or I'm gonna move this way for the next I'm

52
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: gonna walk. It's a little bit different generation, but still

53
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 1: in the scheme of it all, you still have to

54
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: have talent to do it. They're very talented athletes. I

55
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: don't take anything away from them. And the great hitters

56
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 1: are always gonna be great. I don't care what shift

57
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: you put on, what below you put on, It doesn't matter.

58
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: If you're a good hitter, doesn't matter.

59
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 4: You're gonna figure it out.

60
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: That always happened, always will there guys you like watching now, Oh,

61
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: I like watching all. I like watching them all in

62
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: in what they do. I just wish the I'm glad

63
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: the game's starting to come back a little bit. See

64
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 1: guys bunting a little bit is more I see guys,

65
00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: but there's a difference between me. I ain't get you.

66
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: But but you know, just the little things that matter

67
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 1: in the game of baseball. You know, like you guys

68
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: sitting all he shifts over here, if you wanted to

69
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 1: shift butt to third base, make them come back over there,

70
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: you know. I I'm glad that that's coming back a

71
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: little bit. Steals were up a little bit that. I

72
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: like seeing guys run steal and stuff like that. So

73
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,679
Speaker 1: those things I admire the games. So I just like

74
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: each individual to play their role. Just swinging for the

75
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,519
Speaker 1: fence and striking out a lot, to me, isn't really exciting.

76
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: I think it takes away from the game a little bit.

77
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: I like those guys who like to hit and run

78
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 1: and set tables for the other players and stuff like that.

79
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: It's just it's exciting for me that way, because that's

80
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: how I came up.

81
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 5: AJ doesn't gush over any player the way he gushes

82
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 5: over you. True playing with you, talks about how great

83
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 5: you were. So he agrees with you how great you were.

84
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 5: What about him hitting behind you? How bad was that?

85
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 3: That was the worst idea of all time. Felipe Luis

86
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 3: should have got fired for that.

87
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 5: I'm serious.

88
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, they you know I always sit there and say

89
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: that wasn't the greatest teammate off the field, but I

90
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: was pretty good on the field. Take a walk for you. Yeah,

91
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: that was the name of the game.

92
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 5: You know.

93
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: My father I said, I don't really talk about myself

94
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: so much because you know, you don't need to. If

95
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: you're good, people will talk for you, right, And so

96
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: my job to get on base. And you know, I

97
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: could have been selfish. I could have swung in a

98
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: lot of pitches. I could have done a lot of things.

99
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: But that's not how baseball. Suppose we played my job.

100
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: They don't want to pitch me. Let my teammate do

101
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: his job, and that's what he's getting paid.

102
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 3: That you're hitting to a lot of double players.

103
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 1: That's all right. Lest you tried, he.

104
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 4: Was trying to make it do something.

105
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 3: You need to break it up at second base. We

106
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 3: didn't want him hurt.

107
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. I only killed up as I got older. When

108
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: I was younger, I don't have five hundred by accident.

109
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 3: I didn't want I was.

110
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 2: Final bat What about the times when it's like you're

111
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 2: gonna get one pitch tonight, that's it. You're gonna get

112
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 2: one pitch. How would you stay focused on that and

113
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 2: also not just.

114
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 1: Myself to do it? Yeah, I took batting practice. I

115
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: tell these guys all the time, is I mastered batting practice?

116
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: And that that was my whole okey to hitting? Was

117
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: I mastered BP? Because you're a guy who throws to

118
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: you every day, like seventy two miles an hour, and

119
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: you're getting jammed in a cage, or you're popping it up,

120
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: or you're doing things because you're trying to over extend

121
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: a technique of hitting. It's it's simple to me because

122
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: it's like I sit there and say, my IQ is

123
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 1: so high. It kind of like insults people sometimes, but

124
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: I don't mean to. It's just is what it is. Well,

125
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: the ball's coming at me a seventy two miles an hour,

126
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: and I compress it in a perfect technique. The ball

127
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: only travels so far if you use physics to it. Well,

128
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: if the ball comes eighty and I can still do

129
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 1: the same thing, the ball just travels even further. What

130
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: happens in BP is you get the guys trying to

131
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: compress a seventy two miles picture just to hit it

132
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: into orbit, and the actually breaking down a technique that

133
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 1: they shouldn't be doing. And so I just mastered batting

134
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 1: practice in a way where I can control wherever the

135
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:04,359
Speaker 1: ball went. And then during practice, I actually played the

136
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 1: scenarios through my head and I played them in batting practice.

137
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,240
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know how these guys don't go

138
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: on the field anymore and hit it does makes sense

139
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 1: to me. I need to touch it, feel it, at

140
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 1: least line up properly to see if I'm there. I

141
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:18,919
Speaker 1: don't care if you take five swings or two swings

142
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 1: or whatever and go to the batting case, but I

143
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,559
Speaker 1: have things can change out there, so I've always wanted

144
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 1: to be in that ticket. And then I played, I'm

145
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: only gonna get one pitch, so I play, I'm oh

146
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 1: two already in a scenario in my head, or I'm

147
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: gonna do that in practice over and over again. If

148
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,799
Speaker 1: I see that pattern over and over again, I'm gonna

149
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: beat you. And it's it's simple math. Why does the

150
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: pitcher get four and I get three? Because throwing a

151
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 1: ball straight with a seventeen inch plate that goes to wide,

152
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: it's not that easy. You can go to that little

153
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: amusement park. You know, you gives those three little things.

154
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: You got that ball and you miss you two, you

155
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: miss one? Okay, take the distance right now, he's got

156
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 1: to put a wrinkle in it. Those odds dropped to

157
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 1: here right yep. And if you guys have watched this

158
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: game long enough, guys, I mean you've been in this

Speaker 1: swing I guarantee most of the time it'll be too two.

164
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: You don't. You have to swing a bat. Yep, math, physics,

165
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: the game, dictate yourself. So I understood it and I

166
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 1: understood how to do it.

167
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 4: Mh the best.

168
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the best one.

169
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 3: And by the way, I love when you got out there,

170
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 3: you're like, will he's number two, I'm number one.

171
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: Well seven sixty two, tell us that start you're talking

172
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: to like, you're talking like, Okay, I love him. He's

173
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: number one to me in my heart. But statistics, staratistics.

174
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 2: Do you keep track of those to see if anyone's

175
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 2: tracking towards any of your numbers?

176
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 1: I hope I'm alive when they do. I don't. You know.

177
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: The one thing is you don't get jealous over people

178
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: what they do in their careers and what they you know,

179
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: I never been jealous over anybody. Go break it. I

180
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: hope I'm there to see it. You know what I mean?

181
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: I don't. I did what I did. It's over. I

182
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: can't do anymore. And if you just happen to me better,

183
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 1: God bless you. Just be better.

184
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 3: Yep, I mean you got records. Noma's catching walks in

185
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 3: two thousand, four nine walks or whatever. Noway's ever gonna

186
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 3: do that again. No one's gonna walk intentionally walk up

187
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 3: like two hundred times. No one's gonna get to seven hundred.

188
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 3: They're not gonna play long enough.

189
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: The game changes a little bit, maybe just different eras.

190
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: It's all. You know, if you weren't hitting three hundred mior,

191
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: you were in the major leagues most of them. Nowadays,

192
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't really matter. So do I want

193
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: to play back then or now? If I play now,

194
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: I get seven hundred million dollars. So telling you ain't

195
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: got it yet, brother, I'm call all my shots.

196
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 2: When you saw that, when you saw that contract, where

197
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 2: you're like, cause that that's well beyond what anyone else

198
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 2: is making. Oh, Tony's it's seven hundred, but it's deferred,

199
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 2: so it's it's four sixty whatever. But so Soto's money

200
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 2: is that's real.

201
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 1: The players, I mean, you can't you can't take away

202
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: they're the entertainment. Okay. That just shows you how well

203
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: the game's doing, right, and so you don't discredit that,

204
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 1: you know, you just hope the teams have enough to

205
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: share it with all the other guys. Because I need

206
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 1: some of my teammates to get like two. Yeah, they

207
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 1: stay on the team, and I don't want to be

208
00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 1: out there by myself. I don't want so to be

209
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: out there. He doesn't know about there by himself seven

210
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 1: hundred million, and then you're rebuilding a franchise. That's not

211
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,319
Speaker 1: what he wants either. He just happens to be in

212
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 1: the right place at the right time, and you know,

213
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: God bless him.

214
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 4: Do you guys reach out to you like current players?

215
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I talked to a lot of them. They always

216
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: talk to me about hitting. Everyone's always talking.

217
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,439
Speaker 3: You want to talk about someone else, and you give

218
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 3: me a number, I'll call you about someone else. Do

219
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,079
Speaker 3: you want to talk about something else?

220
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what they want. I mean they watch video

221
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 4: of you.

222
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 2: Like there's a guy I won't say his name, but

223
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 2: a good player in the BIGS who texted recently and

224
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 2: was like, how do I get footage or barrier?

225
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 4: And I was like, I think you could probably. I

226
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 4: mean you're big lea. Guys like you probably get in

227
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 4: touch with Barry. Yeah, want to talk to.

228
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: The name of The key to hitting is just getting

229
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: in the hitters count. If you get in hitters' count,

230
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: you have a better shot. But educating a lot of

231
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: the guys when they're with me and we're working out

232
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: and training and I'm going through this and I'm going

233
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: your main objective is just you and the picture. Okay.

234
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: If you can focus on just that and you and

235
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: isolate everything else side of your mind, your success rate

236
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: technically is better and you won't be angry at everything else.

237
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 1: Somebody the line drive to second basement. He's out of

238
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: the equation. He already lost, even though he's clapping like

239
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 1: he got me out. You got beat. Your goon saved you. Okay.

240
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: So now if I hit another, if I don't try

241
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 1: to hit that same spot again, which technically I can,

242
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 1: might miss it and go over, hit the line drive

243
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: over his head or do something else. If I chase

244
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,200
Speaker 1: the two of them two against one, I can't win.

245
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 1: My refocus still needs to be on my opponent in

246
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 1: front of me, and eventually this goon will disappear. But

247
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 1: what happens is as you, a hitter, will go Bammy

248
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 1: made a great, great contact, did everything perfect? Come back

249
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: and try to improve on that, and you can't. Once

250
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: perfection is there, it's there. Try to maintain that the

251
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 1: next four bats you might be three for four because

252
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: his goons don't get in the way. You gave him

253
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: too much credit when he already lost the equation. And

254
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: once they can realize that, they'll calculate the math and

255
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: they might beat him more often.

256
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 4: By show, hey, this year goes fifty to fifty. Really,

257
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 4: in his day, that wasn't a thing. No, really, in

258
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 4: your day, it wasn't that much a thing became a FI.

259
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 1: I could have done FI ninety four on the strike. Ye,

260
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: you look at the numbers. I would have done fifty

261
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: to fifty that year because I already had thirty nine

262
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 1: home runs with twenty nine stolen bases in the strike.

263
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: Matt Williams would have hit sixty plus, and so would

264
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 1: Bagwell because they had like forty something home runs during

265
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: that strike too. So ninety four would have been for me.

266
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: Would have been if any time I could have done

267
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: it was then after that, No, that that's incredible to

268
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 1: do fifty. I don't care who you are. Just running

269
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 1: that much is tiring.

270
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 4: Yes, And then he's gonna pitch again this year.

271
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: I think he needs to stead d h and do

272
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: what he does best. That means he's a great that's

273
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: gonna tire him out. I think it's just too much

274
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 1: on him. I think what he does and what he

275
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: brings to that team right now, Why change something that's

276
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 1: going great? You know? I think maybe come in as

277
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,959
Speaker 1: a reliever, because he's so solid, so hard throwing. He's

278
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: got that great slider, you know, split and everything. It's great.

279
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: Come in throw aning or two or something, but maintain

280
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:32,439
Speaker 1: what you do well.

281
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 3: All right, before you go, I got to ask one question.

282
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 3: We when did you pan together? Two thousand and two.

283
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 3: I want to ask you if you remember this atbaut

284
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 3: This is this is Barry Bond's greatness summed up and

285
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 3: wanted back. There was a one of the Japanese we

286
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 3: played the Japanese also team you. The guy threw you

287
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,839
Speaker 3: a split and you swung and missed, and you looked

288
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 3: at him and you went like this, and you went

289
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 3: I remember, and then you pointed like you're gonna go deep.

290
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,199
Speaker 3: And the next bitch he threw it higher and you

291
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 3: hit a home run.

292
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 1: I remember, right, I remember.

293
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 3: I literally never seen nothing like that. It was that

294
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 3: you were in the box. You literally look at him

295
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 3: and go like this, and then you pointed baby Bruce

296
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 3: style and then you hit a home run. And I

297
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 3: remember I was with Pat Burrell. We were in the dugout,

298
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 3: and we both just looked at each other and no,

299
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,960
Speaker 3: there's no way that just happened like this.

300
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: You're right, you're right. I give it to you. I did.

301
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: I did a lot of crazy stuff on that baseball field.

302
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: It's a lot of I predicted a lot of things,

303
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: You're right I did. But the Eric Ganne thing was

304
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: just Eric Ganye And I was in Japan, and you know,

305
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: he was most dominant, you know, reliever at the time,

306
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,080
Speaker 1: and I just said, you know, if you get over

307
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: three runs, you know, you throw one hundred and four

308
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: miles an hour mono a mono, let's go for it

309
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: right where you can't lose a game. You and me,

310
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: you beat me, you name and I beat you. I

311
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,120

312
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 1: see the curveball wasn't the deal. So when you give

313
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: me a curveball, if you really look at me, I

Speaker 1: looked at him like, okay, brother, don't I'm gonna get

315
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: real angry. And then and I named it right when

316
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 1: I was just it. But you know, I broke all

317
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 1: my records at home. You're right about that, up. I
