00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 3: I'm gonna lead it about Boston, but I don't know.

17
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 3: I'm taking La all the way?

18
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,680
Speaker 2: Okay? Is that because of Manny Wood? Or is that

19
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 2: because you just like the Dodgers? I mean, is La

20
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:11,760

00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 2: Oh okay?

23
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: Is he the best player ever?

24
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 3: I saw a two wait, I saw a two way player. Yes,

25
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 3: but now it's a hitter. I think Barry Ball is

26
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 3: the best I ever seen.

27
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: Okay, well then I want to ask you this the

28
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,759
Speaker 2: best right handed hit her you ever saw?

29
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 3: For my prepason, I like Blothee.

30
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 2: Really over pol over yourself.

31
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 3: I like pool Hoosball. I used to love Blithie because

32
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 3: I don't know how he did it. He's over was

33
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 3: ready for anything, you know, like I gotta play the cons,

34
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 3: you know, to hit bo Blotheie. What was something special?

35
00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: By the way, so I'll say this when I when

36
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 2: I was playing and I was catching his right handed hitters,

37
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 2: there was only one because I was in the American

38
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 2: League and we didn't do it as Manny. It was

39
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 2: Manny because you were the one guy. I was like

40
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 2: a crab. Manny's almost stuff. How the hell we're gonna

41
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 2: get him out? From the time he was time. Yeah,

42
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 2: but that's because I was talking to you, so you

43
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: would say crazy stuff I would say, and you weren't

44
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 2: expecting it. That was the difference. But there was the

45
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 2: one guy you. I was like, oh crap, here comes Manny.

46
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 2: How it because I knew in my mind you were

47
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 2: trying to set me up. And I know you set

48
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 2: guys up. You would take bad swings and you'd be like, oh,

49
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: you'd walk around, Oh I can't hit that pitch. Oh

50
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 2: my right center. Man, you were the best. I tell

51
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 2: people all the time. You were the best I ever

52
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 2: saw a setting dudes up and I fell for him

53
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 2: many a time. So for me, the best right handed

54
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: hitter I played against numerous times, I didn't get pools

55
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: as much was you, Manny Ramirez.

56
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 3: Thank you, sir, Thank you sir.

57
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: And by the way, I just tried to hit like

58
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 2: a little bit because there's one thing that you and

59
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 2: I tell people this the way you load it up.

60
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 2: So you were like I can't really see it, but

61
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: you were like this with your hands and you load

62
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: it up right. You were It was almost like you're

63
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 2: going on your toes. You were like whoa. And I

64
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 2: tried to tell people like that's the way you should

65
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 2: do it, but everyone's like, no, you gotta load and

66
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 2: get Like I'm like, no, watch many Ramirez. He was

67
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: like almost like it was like almost going on your

68
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 2: toes and then you just whack.

69
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 3: He's like Mike Trout, he make it simple.

70
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 4: Can you teach that?

71
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 3: Yeah?

72
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 4: Can you teach that? Why aren't you a hitting coach

73
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 4: because I talked to different guys, young guys with with

74
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 4: the Dodgers when you were when you were coming up

75
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 4: del and young Laroche. Who else did they have there,

76
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 4: Russell Martin, like all those guys, they said you were

77
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 4: you were probably the best hitting coach that they had

78
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 4: on the team. Can you teach that?

79
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: Maybe I could teach it.

80
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 3: I could teach it. I can teach it. I just

81
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 3: need I just need the opportunity. Hey, coman do it?

82
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 3: Come on, do it yo, way.

83
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: Manny, how close have you been to getting a position

84
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: like that? Have you had conversations with teams and what

85
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: have they told you back?

86
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: To be honest, like, I spoke to Boston last year

87
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 3: and we were talking a little bit, and I know

88
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 3: they hired a guy from driveline and we were talking,

89
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 3: but then we never got back, you know, like about

90
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 3: getting serious about it, and so they never get back

91
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 3: to me. So I never, you know, went back to

92
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 3: them and see if it's really an opportunity to me

93
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 3: teach these kids how to hit, because sometimes, you know,

94
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 3: you see all these kids with all these talent, with

95
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 3: all the talent, and they seem kind of lost.

96
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 4: One One guy in the National League hit over three hundred,

97
00:04:55,320 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 4: Trey Turner. Can you teach hitters to hit the pitching

98
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 4: that's out there today? Ninety five to one hundred big sweepers.

99
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 4: Can Can it be taught to hit over three hundred again?

100
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 4: Or is that only for the guys like Luisa Arrives

101
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 4: who just you know, just try to put the ball

102
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 4: in play?

103
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 3: Not really, not really, Remember, peaching is peaching those who

104
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 3: matter one hundred eighty five ninety five. If you got

105
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 3: the techniques, you're gonna hit. I got the best example,

106
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 3: David o'tiz. He's last year. He better than when he

107
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 3: was young. He didn't change his mechanic. So White Chang's

108
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 3: something that he's not broken. Yeah, it's a good call, yep.

109
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: Exactly how many players many? How many players do you, you know,

110
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: speak to it and work with? I remember I saw you.

111
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: I think it was when you were doing some things

112
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: with the cub It's been a minute now, But how

113
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: many guys are you helping and mentoring? I know that's

114
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: important to you.

115
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 3: Actually, I was soaking to Hobby when he was with

116
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 3: the Cops, Brian Shroubert when they were there, and uh,

117
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 3: even Reso. But those guys. They know how to hit.

118
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 3: You don't gotta teach those guys anything. Just the mental

119
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 3: of the game and the approach. True.

120
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 2: When if you can hit, you can hit, you can hit,

121
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 2: right a Jay, I agree? What about your son? Can

122
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 2: your son hit?

123
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 3: My son could hit, and especially I got one in

124
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 3: Juco right now that he could hit. He got bombed.

125
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 3: He could hit bombs what what what Juco is? Yet

126
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 3: he's here in Nova?

127
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 2: Oh? Okay?

128
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:41,480
Speaker 3: Nice?

129
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 2: And is he a prospect?

130
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 3: He's getting there? He could hit, he throw ninety four

131
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 3: and he could run. Well this run he's good too.

132
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, Well who's better than I'm gonna ask you?

133
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 2: Because D'Angelo Ortis or your son.

134
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 3: They're like different players, like like like you know, Lucas,

135
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 3: he's too young. He's young. He just get out of

136
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: high school. I think DeAngelo, you know, he went to college.

137
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 3: So it's the there, like both different players.

138
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 4: You know, how do they get away from the shadow

139
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 4: that that is their father? Like how does your son

140
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 4: get out of your shadow? Not that it's a bad thing,

141
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 4: but it's one of his quotes, like he wants to

142
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 4: be himself.

143
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 3: Like I always tell my son, listen, you don't got

144
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 3: to do it my way, but you could learn the

145
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 3: way that I did it. Joe's try to figure out

146
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 3: what kind of hitter you are, and then you could

147
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 3: develop as a power hitter. Because that's what happened to me,

148
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 3: To Aless Rodriguez, to David Ortiz, we became a hitter

149
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,680
Speaker 3: and when we start getting older, then we understood the

150
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 3: song and start hitting home drums. Not like this kids

151
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 3: these day, that they trying to become a power hitter

152
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 3: when they're know the song and they don't know what

153
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 3: kind of heater they are.

154
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, then I want to know this. What did

155
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 2: you teach David when he came over to Boston, Because

156
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 2: I played with him in Minnesota. I played with them

157
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 2: up and he you know, he was okay, But all

158
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 2: of a sudden he went to Boston and he became

159
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 2: obviously like a god to the Fenway people.

160
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 3: So we used to go to the cage every morning.

161
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 3: Let me tell you, Davey work hard. You know a

162
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 3: lot of people think a lot of people sold Davy's body.

163
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: But then when he went to Boston, he really worked

164
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,679
Speaker 3: his butt off. He used to work out in the

165
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 3: morning every day, and then we went to the cage,

166
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 3: and we used to teach him how to stay in

167
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 3: his back leg.

168
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,200
Speaker 4: How much did you talk to Raffi during this whole

169
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 4: the whole thing. One of your quotes was, it's like

170
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 4: telling Aaron Judge to go play catcher next year in

171
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 4: spring training? How much did you see Raffi working not

172
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,440
Speaker 4: only as a player, but as a teammate too.

173
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 3: To be to be honest, I really didn't know what

174
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 3: was going on in Boston, but what I saw that

175
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 3: Raffie said that they didn't they they didn't when to

176
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:17,199
Speaker 3: talk to him in the Winner, Listen, if you're gonna

177
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,960
Speaker 3: spend three hundred and forty million in a guy, at

178
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:24,319
Speaker 3: least that guy, you gotta tell him, Hey, we're gonna

179
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 3: give you this money, but if we need you three

180
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,439
Speaker 3: three years down the road, can you help us in

181
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 3: first base of the age. That would be easy. Instead

182
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 3: of telling a guy, hey, you lose your glove and everything,

183
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 3: you're not gonna play. You're not gonna play the field anymore.

184
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 2: That would be like me asking you to go catch man.

185
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,840
Speaker 2: That would have been freaking comical. I would have loved.

186
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 3: Get crazy.

187
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 2: That would have been awesome. How much fun and how

188
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 2: scared would you have been if you would have had

189
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,719
Speaker 2: to catch because I would have laughed my ass off

190
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 2: seeing you back there.

191
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 3: No, boy, let me tell you. When I signed with Boston,

192
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,199
Speaker 3: Remember I used to play right field with the Indians.

193
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 3: So as soon as I got to Boston, they told me, hey,

194
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 3: we want you to move to left field. Well, the

195
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,280
Speaker 3: first thing that I did, I went and check out

196
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 3: right field is right field, And as soon as I

197
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 3: saw the right field was so big, then I said,

198
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 3: let me move to left field because it's gonna be

199
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 3: easier for me. No, for real, play right field Boston.

200
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 3: You gotta be truck and field right That thing is

201
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 3: big back there.

202
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 2: Hey. Plus, there's no bathroom in right field, so you

203
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 2: couldn't go no bathroom. Yeah, you know, you couldn't go

204
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 2: to the bathroom. The people would see you, so you

205
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 2: have to You had to be in left field by

206
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 2: the door so you could just go in there.

207
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 3: It was a good decision. It was a good choice.

208
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: Jonathan Papavon's on our show a lot, and he wants

209
00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: to know how often you use the bathroom out there?

210
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: How often was that a spot for you?

211
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 3: Man? First, I shout out to Papapa and I love him.

212
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 3: He's a great competible man. We love him to be honest.

213
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 3: I don't even use the bathroom out there, like the

00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 3: kids that they change the number. They always got getaway

Speaker 1: done this for a few years where they've looked really

315
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: solid during the regular season. Last year was a big

316
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 1: disappointment for them against the Mets in the playoffs. But

317
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: the Phillies have some pretty solid pitching and a lot

318
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: of veterans just like you mentioned, who don't need to

319
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 1: be taught how to hit, Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, Trey Turner,

320
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: et cetera. Just are they going to show up in

321
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: a five gamer to beat the Dodgers? I think that's

322
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 1: gonna be a great series, right.

323
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 3: That series is gonna be great. But remember the Dodgers.

324
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 3: They got so many pitching, they got so many weapon

325
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 3: They could hit, they could run, they could do everything.

326
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 2: Were a bullpen.

327
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 3: Now who wins.

328
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 4: LA in what five games?

329
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 3: Full games?

330
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 4: Okay? So if it's the pitching, If it's the pitching,

331
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 4: who's the Dodgers' best pitcher?

332
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 2: Right now?

333
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,520
Speaker 4: If you're the manager of that team, who do you

334
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 4: start game one of any serious if you can pick anything, Tani?

335
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 4: Why because they're they're facing they're throwing Blake Snell Game one.

336
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 4: So do they think it's an easy walk in the

337
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 4: park for the to beat the Reds.

338
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,439
Speaker 3: I think they're gonna throw it now because hey, you

339
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,879
Speaker 3: said it, it's gonna be a walk in the park

340
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 3: and now is nasty. And remember Sincinnati, they youned they

341
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,400
Speaker 3: pretty good. Well, I don't think they could touch La.

342
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 3: I don't think so.

343
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 2: And Cincinnati doesn't hit lefties either. That's the reason why

344
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 2: he's started king one. That's why I was all right, man,

345
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 2: before I let you go, I have two questions for you.

346
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 2: One they're both funny to me. One you might not

347
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 2: think it's funny, but one you're gonna think it's funny.

348
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:44,879
Speaker 2: When I saw the video of you, I think it

349
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 2: was in Australia and the guy had the Red Sox

350
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 2: hat on and you went up to him and said, hey,

351
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 2: you're Red Sox fan and he had no idea that

352
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,400
Speaker 2: was you. That was freaking awesome. Okay, so I don't

353
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 2: know who told you to do that, but that was awesome.

354
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 3: It came out out of nothing. That was awesome. You know,

355
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:00,919
Speaker 3: we're just playing the round in the street, you know,

356
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 3: we wanted to make some contents and we went on

357
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 3: to make people laugh. It was great.

358
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 2: Okay, and then the second one. I have to ask

359
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 2: you this because I always I haven't seen you, and

360
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,359
Speaker 2: I always wanted to know this. I played with you

361
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 2: for about six seven weeks, and then it was twenty ten.

362
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 2: I never saw I never saw you take a shower

363
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,080

Speaker 1: first before everyone else, right that say, baby, mm hmm.

382
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 2: Plus, there was a shower in the training room in Chicago.

383
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:21,280

395
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,680

396
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 1: three four guys that need treatment. Well, I mean you

397
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:51,040
