So Rafael 23 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 5: Devers a side and the trade aside. But we do 24 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 5: want your thoughts on it, but you are deserving of an. 25 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 4: All start up. Well, I appreciate that. 26 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: We'll see, we got a month ago, so uh, you know, 27 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: got to keep playing good, but we'll see. 28 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 4: Feel good about it? 29 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 5: Now, Now what do you think about the demonstrat Now 30 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 5: let's take into the other stuff we've complimented you. Now 31 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 5: now it's time to ruin your day. 32 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 4: So how what do you think? It's wild? The timing 33 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 4: is wild, seemed, you know. 34 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: I at this point in the year, it's still what 35 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: a month and a half till the trade deadline? Uh, 36 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: Raffie's special player. I don't know, man, it's a weird deal. 37 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: But obviously I think whenever you you know, you get 38 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,040 Speaker 1: paid that kind of money and and you kind of are, 39 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: you know, dancing or to the beat of your own drum, 40 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: like you don't want to you don't want to do 41 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:45,559 Speaker 1: what you're asked. 42 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 4: I mean maybe that you know, things like this happen, 43 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 4: but wild. I was definitely shocked. 44 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 3: You said it's a weird deal. You guys obviously struggled 45 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 3: with a little bit of pitching early in the season. 46 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 3: Here as a player, do you feel like an organization 47 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 3: has to wait to the trade deadline. I feel like 48 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 3: we're just like, oh, okay, we are robots. We're waiting 49 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 3: till the trade deadline. Like don't you want don't you 50 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 3: want a shot in the arm. You guys went down 51 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 3: with injuries. Wouldn't you love it if the Orioles were like, 52 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 3: you know what we're gonna do. We're gonna go after 53 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: Sandy al Contra. I know right now he's not you know, 54 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 3: he wasn't pitching well, but he's hot now and it's 55 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 3: time to go because we as a team come to 56 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 3: the ballpark every day to win. So wouldn't it be 57 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 3: awesome if your if your front office would make a 58 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 3: move like that. 59 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think that's a different scenario right 60 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: as far as compared to the rothy situation. But yeah, 61 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: I mean definitely if you you know, you believe you 62 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: have the pieces to be a contender and you get 63 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: you know, killed with some injuries early on, I think 64 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: that'd be awesome as a player to have reinforcements like that. 65 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: But usually it seems like we don't see big deals, uh, 66 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: you know, regarding you. 67 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 4: Don't even know who's selling and who's buying. 68 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: Yet at this point, I would say, you know, the 69 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: Orioles are rumored to be sellers, or it seems like 70 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: that's the narrative. But we got we got time, man, 71 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 1: and we're not that far out of a wild card 72 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: at this point, and you know, team gets hot, I 73 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: think we're gonna be in a good spot. So I 74 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: just think it's a little bit too early to your point. Yes, 75 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: it's always good to have Sandy Alcantara or some stud 76 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: come join your team, but also it's like, how. 77 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 4: Do you know who's buying it who's selling at this point. 78 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 1: Obviously there are extremes, but most teams are kind of 79 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,119 Speaker 1: in the middle somewhere. 80 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the extra wildcard has definitely helped that cause too, Right, 81 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 2: the more playoff spots that you have open, the more 82 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 2: that mathematically your team has a shot. And it makes sense. 83 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 2: Why wouldn't you want to do that. I mean, we've 84 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 2: talked about the Diamondbacks too on the National League side, 85 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 2: and I'm like watching them on a night the basis 86 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 2: and I'm like, damn. 87 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 4: This team's pretty good. 88 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 2: Just because they lost, you know, their ace, they still 89 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 2: might be really good and it might be eight games 90 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 2: over five hundred by the time we get to the 91 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 2: trade deadline. One more thing from me, Endevors, because you 92 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: know you'll date, you'll first, you'll play first, you'll play 93 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 2: in the outfield. I think everybody just wants to know, 94 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: like how players perceive things inside the clubhouse. We try 95 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 2: to take them inside here. If there is your best 96 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: bat and he's quiet, he's not a problem, but he's 97 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 2: just having problems with the front office about where they 98 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: want him to be. 99 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 4: What do you think is. 100 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 2: The temperature from the rest of players. Are most players like, 101 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: I don't care. He's not bothering me, and he's the 102 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: best player on the team, so let's ride this out. 103 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 4: Or do you think guys are like man. 104 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 2: He is really hurting our chemistry because he's battling with 105 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 2: the front office. 106 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I think it probably depends on the clubhouse. 107 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 1: I mean, like in that clubhouse, Raffi is the best player, 108 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: the highest paid player, you know, the franchise cornerstone. So 109 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: I feel like, I mean, I don't know, unless you're 110 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: in the clubhouse, you don't know. 111 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 4: But I feel like the maybe the you. 112 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 1: Know, whispers about it wouldn't really be there. But I 113 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: think maybe in a clubhouse, like like a padres or 114 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: like you know, a place with like a ton of 115 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: veterans and a ton of guys who have done a 116 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 1: lot of them, you know, big time things in their career. 117 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: If another guy isn't willing to make a move or 118 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: do something different for the team, than I think that 119 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: could be more of an issue. 120 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 4: But I mean a guy like. 121 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: Devers is you know, the face of the franchise and 122 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 1: he's you know, he's playing hits in the three hole 123 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: every day, and he's driving in all the runs and 124 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: he's the you know, he's supposed to be the leader. 125 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: So I mean I could see both sides. I don't 126 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 1: think guys are probably gonna say much about him, But 127 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: I mean, in my opinion, if you're if you're taking 128 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: on that, if you're making that much money and you 129 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: you have all that responsibility, I think you got to 130 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: do what's best for the. 131 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 4: Organization or things like this will happen. 132 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 5: Ryan, you mentioned it earlier, and I hate bringing this 133 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 5: up with guys, but if you guys don't get back 134 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 5: into this, your name has popped up big time for 135 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 5: trade deadline stuff. Would the team approach you with that beforehand? 136 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 5: Would they say, hey, Ryan, we've talked to teams, have 137 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 5: your bags backed or is it something that you just 138 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 5: kind of know as a player and are like, Okay, 139 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,280 Speaker 5: I hope this doesn't happen, but if it does, at 140 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 5: least I think I'm going to a good place. 141 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think, I mean, I hope that they would 142 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: want to communicate with me about it. I think I've 143 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: made it pretty clear that I enjoy being an oriole 144 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: and you know, if if there's any interest in keeping 145 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 1: me around in the future, then I'm definitely open to 146 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: hearing about it. But I think in the nature of 147 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: today's game is there's so much I mean, I don't 148 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: I'm not on Twitter, but it's impossible to ignore the noise. 149 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 4: Like it's everywhere, it's it's and it is what it is. 150 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: It's in some fashts, it's a it's a compliment because 151 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: you're playing well and people think that you can help 152 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: other teams. But at the same time, like like I said, 153 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: you know, we got a long way to go. 154 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 4: We got another month and a. 155 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: Half till the deadline, and I'm dead set on finishing 156 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: years and Oriel. I think, you know, we've underperformed for sure, 157 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: But I think the last you know, two three weeks 158 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: have been pretty solid, and you know, the confidence is 159 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: building and we're getting some players back and all that. 160 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: So I'm by any means, I'm not. I'm not giving 161 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: up on, you know, remaining in Oriel at least through 162 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: the end of the year. But I think it's you know, 163 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: in today's game, it's impossible to be oblivious to it. 164 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 2: You know, Krat's real question for you. So I'm in 165 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 2: Arena Club and I opened up a slab pack. I 166 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 2: pulled a Wyatt Langford Auto rookie card. I got an 167 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: immediate offer from Arena Club. I turned it down. It 168 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 2: was in the mid three hundredth range.

I didn't see it when you ripped 171 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 3: the pack, but it looks so sick with everything around 172 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 3: and how it's spinning in your showroom. That John looked nice. 173 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 3: But no, you shouldn't sell it. 174 00:07:58,040 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 4: Maybe wait till. 175 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 3: He makes an all start or two and all of 176 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 3: a sudden that three hundred goes up and you're gonna 177 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 3: get another instant off of right away on Arena Club. 178 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 2: That's right by sell trade slab packs are there for 179 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 2: you too to rip a pack, And for me, I'm 180 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 2: just leaving it in the showroom for now deciding what 181 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: I'm going to do with it.

So take us through it. What happened at 187 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 2: the start of the season that led to the team 188 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 2: being in a hole, and what's changed? Why is the 189 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 2: team on a much better track right now? 190 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean I could just take the easy way 191 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: out and say it's baseball, because, as you guys know, 192 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: like things don't go your way sometimes and then sometimes 193 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: they sometimes things don't go your way and it becomes 194 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: this big story and it's like, hey, we got to 195 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: have a player's meeting, and hey we got to have 196 00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: a raw rod this and we got. 197 00:08:59,080 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 4: To figure it out. 198 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: And in this game, trying hardercessar doesn't necessarily equal wins. 199 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 4: It's it's the weirdest thing. 200 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 1: Trying harder is probably you know, gonna hurt you more 201 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: than it's gonna help you. You gotta and then for 202 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 1: whatever reason, out of nowhere, you know you can get 203 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: this mojo and just it's twenty six guys feeling like 204 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna you're gonna win every night, no matter if 205 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: it's five to nothing in the second inning, it just 206 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. 207 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 4: We're gonna figure out a way to win this game. 208 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: And uh, that's obviously a much more fun side to 209 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: be on, but it's just baseball. 210 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 4: I mean, I can't think of like one specific thing. 211 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: I think, you know, the starters, our starters had some 212 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 1: some guys had some tough starts and. 213 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 4: At the beginning of the year, and and it may 214 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 4: be it's snowballed a little bit. 215 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: We had some injuries, and then you know, you feel 216 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: like you kind of lose your mojo, like it just 217 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: and and it becomes an everyday grind to try and 218 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: get back to what we know we're capable of. You know, 219 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: the manager gets fired, hider gets fired, that's you know, 220 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: that's a tough thing in the clubhouse. 221 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,440 Speaker 4: A lot of guys love Brandon Hide, including. 222 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: Myself, and so that can put a weird, you know 223 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 1: feel around the clubhouse. But ultimately, like Mansollino has done 224 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: an amazing job. He's got great relationships with guys. The 225 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: last few weeks have been fun. Seems like guys are 226 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: having fun at the field again. Guys want to go 227 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: to the yard and and we're kind of getting that 228 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: Oreoles magic back. 229 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 4: If you want to put it that way. But it's 230 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 4: it's been really fun over the last couple of weeks. Yeah. 231 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 5: I don't want to pile on Brandon Hide at all. Listen, right, 232 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 5: I don't want to pile on Brandon Hid. He was 233 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 5: a great guy to talk to. He knows baseball. But 234 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 5: what's the difference between Mansolino and what Brandon Hyde? You 235 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 5: said there's more fun? 236 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 4: Is that? 237 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 5: Is that the biggest difference you've noticed? Because it's like 238 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 5: Brandon Hide forgot how to manage overnight. It wasn't like, 239 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 5: oh man, this guy took us to the playoffs last two 240 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 5: years and now oh he just forgot what he was doing. 241 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 5: So what's the biggest difference you've noticed? 242 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean having fun is as not related to 243 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: the manager at all, Like having fun is related to 244 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 1: winning some close games and you know, sweeping a couple 245 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: of teams and you know, happy flight instead of sat 246 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 1: in flight and you know how it goes. But I don't, 247 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: you know, I don't really see a massive difference with 248 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: the manager. I mean, Mansolino is, he's got great relationships 249 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: with guys. 250 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 4: He's checking on everybody. 251 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: He's good at managing the room and managing the players, 252 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: guys at different stages of their careers. But you know what, 253 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: Hide was the same way. I don't have anything negative 254 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: to say about Hyde at all. You know, love the guy. 255 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: He did a lot for me. Like I said, I 256 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: don't think that there's one like reason you can point 257 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: to as to why we played better in the last 258 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: few weeks. 259 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 4: It's just baseball. It's just how it goes. 260 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 1: You know, you get a few lucky breaks, maybe you 261 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: get some guys back, the. 262 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 4: Ball starts rolling and and you know, you start winning. 263 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: Once you get that taste of winning, it's you know, 264 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: it's like you can kind of sense it in games 265 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: you've been winning, you're playing well, you're up a few runs, 266 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: it's like there's blood in the water. 267 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 4: And yeah, I mean, I don't I've been asked this 268 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 4: question before us I can't really think of like. 269 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: One thing to point to what's changed over the last 270 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 1: few weeks and I've nothing negative to. 271 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 4: Say about Brandon Hyde or at all that clear. 272 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 3: Can I point to the one thing Atalie Rushman's freaking raking? 273 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 3: What on earth is different about the month of June? 274 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 3: Your captain, my captain, Mike Coptain, Mister Rushman is absolutely 275 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 3: crushing it. Is there a change? Did he come off 276 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 3: of an injury? Did he wear a golden thong?
