Bottom of the eighth inning. 20 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: National League leads the American League six to four. They 21 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: are three outs away from doing something incredibly rare, and 22 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 1: that's winning the All Star Game, yay. But the other 23 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: big story tonight Caitlyn Clark left to night's game. The 24 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: Fever held on to beat the Sun late they pulled 25 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: away to beat the Sun later. It was a close 26 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 1: game throughout. Caitlyn Clark another game where she had trouble 27 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: hitting threes I believe, which is at one three on 28 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,759 Speaker 1: the road in her last like seven games. It's been 29 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: a struggles three games of terrible shooting before her injury 30 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: and missing five games and since she's been back, assists 31 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: total is high, moving the ball well, but her shot 32 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: has just absolutely been broken. Telling you, after I said 33 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: everything was gonna be great, watch this middle finger revenge 34 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: tour for Caitlyn Clark. She can't hit a shot all 35 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: your fall and the best defender of the WNBA's ever seen. 36 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: And then we joked about it that night that there 37 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: would be talk of, hey, the Fever are better without 38 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark. 39 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 2: What happened? Carolyn Peck? 40 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: Hey, she was the one that said it first when 41 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: I said watch the hot take all the Fever better 42 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: without Katelyn Clark, and Carolyn Peck said it yeah, thanks, Yeah, 43 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: there was Uh, but here's the deal now with what 44 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: we just saw. Kaylen Clark makes a back door pass 45 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: for a hoop that gives the Fever a nine point lead, 46 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: and then she runs down the court and you can 47 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: see she puts the right hand kind of over where 48 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: her groin is, which is what you see athletes do 49 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,239 Speaker 1: when they pull that they put Oh wow, oh wow, 50 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: I feel something there. Now here's the thing. Okay, yeah, 51 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark's already been out with two injuries this year, 52 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,839 Speaker 1: a quad injury, groin injury. And before you say that, hey, 53 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: she reaggravated her her groin injury. The groin injury that 54 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: kept her out was her left groin. Now we don't 55 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: know because Stephanie white Head, coach of the Fever, hasn't 56 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: said anything. And right now we're wondering, is Kaitlyn Clark 57 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: got to play in the next game? Can she be 58 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: in any of the All Star festivities this weekend, Can 59 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: she be in the three point shootout? Can she be 60 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: in the game itself. It's a really big ques question now. 61 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: But the thing is when she came when she came off, 62 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: she had her right hand over her right groin. Now 63 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: it could be your left growing still, obviously, I'm not 64 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: a doctor, but I'm just sitting here saying, hey, if 65 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: you hurt yourself on whatever side of the body you 66 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: hurt your body on, if you're gonna touch it with 67 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: your hand, you're gonna put your hand there, that's gonna 68 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: be the side you use. So the fact she used 69 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: her right hand or right hand seemed like it was 70 00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: over her right groin. You wonder if now she's back 71 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: from the left growing and now there is a right 72 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: groin injury that she's really going through overcompensated. Now you 73 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: leave the court and they not unprecedented and just terrible 74 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: for the w NBA as you have the huge spectacle 75 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: that this All Star weekend was going to be the 76 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: announcement of participation in the three point shootout, right and 77 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: much heralded, much anticipated, and her return to the court 78 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: and they continue to win even with her not shooting 79 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: well at all. Steve gave us the numbers in terms 80 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: of percentages. This is awful if this becomes a long 81 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: standing issue because third injury, miss five games, just back 82 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: just starting to get the legs underneath her, and then 83 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: leaves at the end of this victory. So for the 84 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: w NBA, timing worse could be worse. Now there's reports 85 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: here out that Colin Clark, her brother, alludes to refing 86 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: playing a role in her injury. Right that the ref 87 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,720 Speaker 1: in the game is okay put in so okay. Now 88 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: it's been deleted, but it was up. Now let me 89 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: just say this, as we were waiting for Caitlin Clark 90 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: to find out how she is. And you know, the 91 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: funny thing is I plan to talk about this tonight 92 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: at some point, you know, her coming off the game. 93 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: And remember on Sunday there is a lot of physicality 94 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: and the Fevers win and a very big bit of 95 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,799 Speaker 1: viral from Rebecca Lobo and Ryan Ruk doing the game, 96 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: doing the Fever game on Sunday, showing you just one 97 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: possession where Caitlin Clark has hit a couple of times, 98 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: and Rebecca Lobo saying, that's a foul. That's a foul, 99 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 1: that's a foul, that's a foul. Finally they call it 100 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: when she gets the hoop, right, like, they're not calling 101 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: the fouls on Caitlin Clark. And when you hear that, 102 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: that part of it is, Ah, this is just Caitlin 103 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: Clark apologist not getting their not getting their way because 104 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: she's not hitting shots, and all of a sudden, Caitlin Clark, 105 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: they're making excuses for. The thing is, you watch these games, right, 106 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: and we watch more WNBA than I think a lot 107 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: of people do. You watch these games, and you can 108 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,799 Speaker 1: see where Caitlin Clark gets bodied, gets physical and doesn't 109 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 1: get the calls. Now, generally in sports you get the 110 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 1: superstar calls, but she's not getting them. And I don't 111 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 1: know how much this is a hot take as much 112 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: as now. I think there's a lot of evidence going 113 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: back to last year when things aren't called, like Kennedy 114 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: Carter running into her from behind and knocking her down, 115 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,159 Speaker 1: in the referee just saying it's a common foul. We're 116 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: not seeing that. Uh, There's been a lot of instances 117 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: of Caitlin Clark getting physical and no fouls being called. Okay, Now, 118 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: it's funny because you know, I listened to Doug Gottlieb 119 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: talk about this a couple of weeks ago and say, listen, 120 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: women's basketball is really difficult to be officiated for a 121 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: bunch of different reasons, and it was great points on 122 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: it going. Look, obviously, Doug d one coach, you know basketball, 123 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: this whole life. But I think now, I think that's more. 124 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: We've gone past that because I will tell you this, 125 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: the officials know what they're calling and what they're not. 126 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: They know what to look for and whatnot. Caitlyn Clark 127 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: is a really big deal, and I wonder if they're 128 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: not calling fouls on her on purpose. Now I'm not 129 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: saying that's why she got hurt. I mean, I'm not 130 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,239 Speaker 1: saying that, but but I wonder, just watching these games, 131 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: are they not calling fouls where she gets hit on purpose? 132 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: Because the backlash and what could happen the optics of oh, 133 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,799 Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark getting all these fouls calls, getting superstar foul calls? 134 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: What that would do to the wa WNBA conversation and 135 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: attention to the game, because you already see what it's 136 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: like where where there's so many haters for Caitlyn Clark 137 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,239 Speaker 1: out there. The players don't like her. The players don't 138 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: some of the coaches don't like her because they're jealous 139 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: of what she does and the attention she's brought to 140 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: the game. Can you imagine what would happen if they 141 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: put her on the free throw line as much as 142 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: they did, if they if they gave her all these 143 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: calls where hey, that's a foul, that's a foul, that's 144 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: a foul. The blowback on it would be insane. Right, 145 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: there is a very fragile situation right now with Caitlyn 146 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: Clark and her standing with the rest of the league, 147 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: where hey, you want you want everybody to not hate her. 148 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: You want to be able to not have storylines taken 149 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: over by is it racial? Is it Caitlyn Clark or 150 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: Rangel Reese? We can't celebrate both of them. Why do 151 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: we pit both them against each other? One of the 152 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: worst things we do. Hey, here's two women starts let's 153 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: pit them against each other. No, we shouldn't be doing that. 154 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: But to very fragile situation right now. And if all 155 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: of a sudden she starts getting these calls where oh 156 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: they're physical, but they're kind of ticky tack or you 157 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: could call them or not call them. What happens to 158 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: the uproar over Caitlyn Clark's treatment the WNBA? Do things 159 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: get worse, does the daily discourse about the WNBA get better? 160 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 1: Or do to get to a point where, look, here's 161 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark, the big hero. She's getting all of these calls. 162 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: It's ridiculous and now you have even more of a 163 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: divide with players in the WNBA. Because that's why I 164 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: can come to is that there's places where boy, Caitlyn 165 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: Clark should have gone gone to the free throw line. 166 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: Case Kelsey plump boy, this place should go to the 167 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: free throw line. And you wonder if that's the case. 168 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: She had one bit tonight where she was so mad 169 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 1: at the referee where she was yelling, Camie, Camie, camire, 170 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna call the league on you. She was so 171 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: upset with hout things are being refereed and how she 172 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 1: was She had lost it a little bit during the 173 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: game with a ref. I thought she was gonna get 174 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: thrown out if one of her teammates didn't pull her back, 175 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: Like you could tell. It's getting to that point with 176 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark and the referees. But I really wonder if 177 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 1: if that's the thing is we're not calling that because 178 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 1: the blowback on it could be even worse, which is 179 00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: not fair at all, and it shows you the WNB 180 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: still having trouble handling success. But Caitlyn Clark, this is 181 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: a thing now where hey, her treatment by the referees. 182 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: This is now front and center and there's no other 183 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: way because the referees know what they're looking for. They 184 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,719 Speaker 1: know what they're looking for, they know what they're Seeing's like, 185 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: these are people at are brand new doing the games. 186 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: They know now with Caitlyn Clark and what's happening in 187 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 1: these games. All right, there's a lot of scrutiny on 188 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: this and you see plays where that should be a 189 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: foul call, and no, you can't call everyone. And I 190 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: know that the defenders are gonna do that because they're 191 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: gonna have the philosophy of well, okay, if you call 192 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: me for a couple, but you gotta at least blow 193 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 1: the whistle a couple of times before you absolutely have to. Okay, 194 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: well she got to the basket and she put up 195 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: a shot that should have went in and it didn't. 196 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: We'll give her the foul. Sometimes it's a foul if 197 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: she get if she dribbles and gets bodied off the 198 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: ball and it's a turnover, sometimes that's a foul too. Right. 199 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: I know she didn't get to the rack and get 200 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: a shot off, but sometimes that's got to be a foul. 201 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: So I really wonder. I mean, if that's where we're 202 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: at right now. That, yeah, there's things not being called 203 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: on purpose in Caitlyn Clark's in Caitlyn Clark's beath because 204 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: of what the fall could be. Well, the critical eye 205 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: go back to look at some of her turnovers that 206 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: where she gets mugged right and bodied to where the 207 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: ball just trickles. I mean there was a big one 208 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: the other day where she was complaining about not getting 209 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: a foul call and then she wanted the ball. It 210 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: gets the ball and loses it and like, ah, yes, 211 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 1: she probably committed to turn over. She got absolutely bodied. Yeah, 212 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: it's like you're looking for the foul call, and we 213 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: talk about it with all sports, whether it's soccer games 214 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: or basketball all the way through, that you can call 215 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: a foul holding calls on every call in the NFL 216 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: or college football that you're trying to figure out where 217 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: the line is in the sand. We watched earlier in 218 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: this game, Tina Charles absolutely obliterated Leah Austin and it 219 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: was called a common fall. Right the arm came up, 220 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: took her to the ground and there was a minute 221 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: of wow, is she really hurt? But it was rule 222 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: to come and fill. So the WNBA having a lot 223 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: of issues with the fall and officiating as a whole, 224 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: right on the macro level, and then you take it 225 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: back into the Caitlin Clark, there are superstar calls. Right. 226 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: We talked a lot about Miserowski making the All Star 227 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: Game for Major League Baseball. Guess what Star treatment happens 228 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: in every walk of life, in every sport, all the 229 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 1: way through different treatment for different players. Miserowski was a story. 230 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: So after a bunch of people opted out, yeah he's 231 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: getting a call and he's going to show up in 232 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: Atlanta to take a couple of pitches and get up 233 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: there and throw and give us one hundred mile on 234 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: our heat. With Caitlin Clark, you have to recognize what 235 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 1: she's brought to the table, the expansion of this league. 236 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: You've added new franchises just since her showing up to 237 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: the tune up hundreds of millions of dollars as well 238 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: as the chartered flight and everything else that gets pointed out. So, yeah, 239 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 1: those superstar calls should come. And if she becomes a 240 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 1: free throw merchant, as this has been laid on Shay 241 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: Gildes Alexander, so be it. That's the way it works now, 242 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 1: and I'll throw this out there too. Before you think, oh, Jason, 243 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: is the league really gonna not call fouls on Caitlin 244 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,599 Speaker 1: clarkers are worried about the uproar. Let me take you 245 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: back to a little thing called the Olympics from a 246 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: year ago. Remember the Olympics when Kara Clark didn't get 247 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 1: selected and the big reason that came out why they 248 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: didn't take Caitlyn Clark. What was the big reason. We 249 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: were told, oh, right, because the team was kind of 250 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 1: concerned what the fallout would be on social media from 251 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark's fans if she didn't play a lot in 252 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: the Olympics. So don't sit here and tell me that 253 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, this is something that's completely out of bounds. 254 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: This is a suppose that wanted to put that out 255 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 1: there that hey, we're worried about what her fans would 256 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: say if she doesn't play a lot. Okay, So yeah, 257 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: you are worried about fallout for things telling you. I mean, 258 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: at this point, you know they know Caitlin Clark, the 259 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 1: Golden Goose everything. Okay, at this point, say, okay, we 260 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 1: got to start calling fouls when she gets hit like this, 261 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: and it doesn't matter what the fallout is. It doesn't 262 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: matter if players get mad, it doesn't matter. You got 263 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 1: to officiate things the right way. And again I'm not 264 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: saying she got hurt tonight because of it. This is 265 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: I'm just saying in general, because we wanted to talk 266 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,560 Speaker 1: about this coming into it. Sure is that you saw 267 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 1: her get really upset with official tonight. I mean against 268 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: I thought once she was going to get thrown out 269 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 1: of the game. She's having a conversation with the official 270 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: about a foul, and all of a sudden she just 271 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: loses it. And if her teammate doesn't pull her back, 272 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,199 Speaker 1: like I wonder if she gets thrown out of the 273 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: game at that point, and then she wants you fish 274 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: come over here, come over, you come to talk to me, 275 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,839 Speaker 1: Come talk to me. I want to call the league 276 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,119 Speaker 1: like that's the thing, man. But it's an outstanding building 277 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: issue going back to last season, where you don't feel 278 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 1: that it's it's necessarily adjudicated properly. And you can't call 279 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: every file, you can't call every hit, but certainly when 280 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 1: it becomes the all right, there's one, then you just 281 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: say pick one, right. How many times do you do that? 282 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: You had that sequence that you're speaking of here, where 283 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: it's any number of reachins or body blows. It's like, 284 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: all right, once we get to four and then you 285 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: wait and to see if the shot doesn't fall. Come on. 286 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: It's just ludicrous at this level. And now you're getting 287 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: to the All Star break and that's going to be 288 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: one of the big questions her availability, but also the 289 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: state of officiating. You're expanding the pie and bringing in 290 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: hundreds of millions of dollars more per franchise. Talk about 291 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: the evaluation of what the Valkyries are just after rising 292 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: into the league that you've got to realize you've got 293 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: to protect your players and Caitlin Clark being first and 294 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: foremost expanding pie. Wow, we were watching a pizza ed exert, 295 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: So again I got you think that's a hot take thing, 296 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: that's contraby. I mean, really you have to wonder why 297 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: are they not calling it unless they're worried about the fallout, 298 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: because the fallout would be so we're gonna referee you 299 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 1: this way. Just think about it. Exit ou about a 300 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: Fresco exit swallowing dome.

It looks like it was one hundred. 334 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: Like he is juiced. Hey, hey, hey, when you say that, 335 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: hang on a second. Hang on when you you know, 336 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: when you say that, don't you just say he is excited? 337 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: He is. He's really jacked up. When you say an 338 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,479 Speaker 1: MLB player is jewed a guy? Okay, hang on a second. 339 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 1: Am not casting any aspersions. I just had that choice 340 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: of words. That's all. Now this, honestly, think about this. 341 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 1: Right here comes Diaz coming into the game, and Jazz 342 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: chishm is coming up right and Chism gets a groundball 343 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: down the first base line, and thankfully they got the 344 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: out at first. Because I was like, okay, o, man, 345 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,879 Speaker 1: that's they needed that. Uh, because I couldn't. I couldn't 346 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: face my dad and Fabiano if Chisholm got a hit 347 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: and tied the game off of Daz. Right. But here's 348 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: the thing, this is why the All Star Game should 349 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 1: have a re entry role. Okay, number one, How much 350 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 1: would the ratings stay and get bigger over the course 351 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 1: of the game if you knew guys like Otani and 352 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: Judge could come back into the game right and hit 353 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: at some point right they start, I would say the 354 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: start the t it istion liket age to where they 355 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: can come back and back out like a WWE superstar. Yeah, 356 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,880 Speaker 1: they can come back in and uh and and play right. 357 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: Because how great would it be if the American League 358 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: could say, okay, two outs, tying run a third, Aaron 359 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: Judge can come back into the game and hit, and 360 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: we get ds versus Judge as a way, Oh my goodness, 361 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: we got DZ versus Judge. Think about when when Otani 362 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: struck out Trout at the end of the WBC and 363 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: how great a moment that was. Okay, here they are 364 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: the teammates and the two best players in baseball. The 365 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: last few years doing it right, Like that's a big deal. 366 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:37,919 Speaker 1: How great would it be to be able to say, Okay, 367 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: now here comes Aaron Judge back in, or Otani can 368 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 1: come back in the next inning, to to hit at 369 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 1: some point, Like if you knew the best players were 370 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,479 Speaker 1: going to be in there at the end, I think 371 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 1: viewership towards the end would be great because what happens 372 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: is all the best players, they're out of the game 373 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: after the first three innings, right, they all hit once 374 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: or twice, and then they're out, and now it's a 375 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 1: bunch of guys coming in that Hey, maybe you know 376 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,080 Speaker 1: who they are, maybe you don't, and how are you 377 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,239 Speaker 1: gonna do this? How is this going to work? And 378 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: so knowing that maybe these guys could come back in, 379 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: that'd be great as long as everybody gets there at 380 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: that and juicy not why not? Right? Why not? Or 381 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: it gets to pitch that you know, one or two batters. Yeah, 382 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,679 Speaker 1: because we didn't even get the traditional full innings out 383 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 1: of a lot of these guys, you know, a couple 384 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,719 Speaker 1: of hours. Yeah, we actually saw a guy pulled, oh 385 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: yeah in the middle, in the middle of but pulled 386 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,719 Speaker 1: not just out of strategy, or pulled because hey, you 387 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: have a trouble. You're not yeah, not good, You're having 388 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 1: trouble on this, you know, not a Kershaw ceremonial thing 389 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 1: or some of these others. Oh and let me tell 390 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: you what just happened. Wow, this is amazing. Okay, and 391 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 1: you know, I'm excited even though we're going to the 392 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 1: bottom of the ninth inning. So Kwan gets an infield single. Uh, 393 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 1: you know, they have the bit of the shift on. 394 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: Being the left handed bat that he is, and he 395 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: gets jammed by Diaz and he hits a slow roller 396 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: that doesn't even make it to the lip of the infield, 397 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: but wising his see doesn't have any chance. Yeah, he 398 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 1: he beats it out at first base. So an infield 399 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: dribbler ties the game at six. Okay, So now Kwan's 400 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 1: on first two outs Randy and Rose. Arena is up, 401 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 1: and of course, because you know DS can't hold anybody 402 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: on me, I can run on Van Diaz quan steel seconds. Now, 403 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: oh wait a minute, here here's the uh, here here's 404 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: the now. All of a sudden, the go ahead run 405 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: is at second. I'm like, oh my god, Diaz, what 406 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 1: are you doing? And then he throws a pitch on 407 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: the black that looks like it strikes out a rose 408 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:33,400 Speaker 1: arena and instead it's called a ball, and everybody stops 409 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 1: and Diaz they all said they want the ABS system. 410 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: Remember it's in play here for the All Star Game, 411 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: where you can challenge a pitch if you think it's 412 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: a strike. But it's got to be done right away 413 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: by the batter, the pitcher or the catcher. Right. We've 414 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: seen it a couple of times already in the game 415 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 1: and it's worked out. School Will tried it out early 416 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: and it worked it. Yes, you go and they go 417 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: with the box, the box technology and whatever the box 418 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: shows you, that's what the pitch is. So Ds points 419 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: he wants to pitch looked at, and a Rose Raina 420 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 1: is smiling. It's like, okay, I think he probably knows 421 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: it was strike three if he's sitting there in the 422 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 1: batter's box smiling. And sure enough they go to the box, 423 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 1: the pitch is in the zone. Strike three. That ends 424 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: the inning. This is that, Yeah, this innings we're talking 425 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: on the blackay because it was a very small bit 426 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: of baseball that was on the Yeah, well that's where 427 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 1: it's got to be. Sey what's in the box. It's not. 428 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: It's not like. That's why players aren't a little offside. 429 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: You're either offside or you're not. The player is either 430 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 1: the ball is either in the box or it's not 431 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 1: in the box. And that ended the inning. Like that 432 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: pitch ended the inning. They're all smiling walking off and 433 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: ds tips his hat and Rose raina kind of smiles 434 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: and that gets the strike out at the end of 435 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: the inning. So now you're going into the next Okay, 436 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: so now we're tied, going to the bottom of the ninth. 437 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: Here's the other thing. Diz is the last pitcher, the 438 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: last pitcher left. I believe they said Dave Roberts has 439 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 1: used everybody. You know, Dave Roberts loves Hisez. He may 440 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: come in. He may come in the next inning. We 441 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 1: may get him to come in. Uh so, he's got it. 442 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: He's got more appearances than Mizerowski this year. Yeah. Uh so, now, 443 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,719 Speaker 1: not even kidding. If they don't get a run, Diaz 444 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,400 Speaker 1: is gonna have to come out and pitch again. I mean, 445 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 1: we could get to a point where he's gonna say, 446 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 1: all right, Diaz is not gonna pitch. I mean, he's 447 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 1: not gonna pitch three innings. Either you figure something else 448 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: out or we could be looking at another we're gonna 449 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 1: get another tie. Well, the over of that ten and 450 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: a half that we talked about that is hit Pete 451 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 1: Alonzo may no longer be your MVP. Yeah no, now 452 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: it's gonna now forget it now. Now that's out the way. 453 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: It's whatever happens now, it's gonna be whatever whoever wins 454 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: the game, if someone wins the game with the walk 455 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: off or someone hits it, you know, gives the American 456 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: League the league, like yeah, And then started with my 457 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: all star Smith hitting Suarez in the hand. Uh yeah, 458 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: hopefully he's okay and hopefully good. It was worked inside 459 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 1: with with some high heat. And you can see he 460 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,479 Speaker 1: Suarez look back at the mound like really, dude, really 461 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: all Star game and now we're wondering about that. But 462 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: it was the hit that started everything. Yeah, and look 463 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: and and and now to you know, to go through 464 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 1: that first of all the abs as we've seen tonight 465 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: works and works really well and works really well, like 466 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 1: I mean, like I said, we will eventually get to 467 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 1: robot umps and a home plate umpiring a major league 468 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: baseball where it's strictly done by computer. But it's not 469 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: going to be something that's going to be universally accepted 470 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: off the bat. Right, let's just say they're bugs in. 471 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: It doesn't work as great. Oh, we got to get 472 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: rid of it. Got to go back to the umpires, 473 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: the home plate umpires. Of course, the Umpires Association is 474 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:38,679 Speaker 1: gonna is gonna be crazy. You don't trust us to 475 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: make these calls. Now, everything's going to be automated. AI 476 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: is taking all our jobs. This is simply the first Hey, 477 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: this is how we get everybody's feet wet to how 478 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 1: we're going to have the ABS system calling balls and 479 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: strikes at some point all the way through. Right, get 480 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: them used to it now. And clearly this is a 481 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 1: huge win because, hey, they challenged and all three challenges 482 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: so far I overruled right, all three challenges that the 483 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: Major League that the homeplate umpire ruled all were overturned. 484 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: So that's a huge w for the ABS system and 485 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:11,959 Speaker 1: that yeah, they're gonna get it right. When the home 486 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 1: played umpires get it wrong. Being zero for three, that's 487 00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: a big thing. 488 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 2: Man. 489 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: I know you think, ow, it's just the All Star Game, 490 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: but hey, you would think the homeplate umpire is getting 491 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: it right. When all three challenges have come through for 492 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: the challenging team, it's a big thing, man. Yeah, not 493 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 1: a good look for your human calls, because we did 494 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: have a game the other day, what was it, twenty 495 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: miss calls or something like that over the course of 496 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: a game, so you certainly have the preponderance of evidence. 497 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: And then on the biggest stage where you draw a 498 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: massive audience on Fox for this highlight and the erosa 499 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,479 Speaker 1: rain of response might have been the thing that steals 500 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: it all. Yeah, smiles and kind of did that lean 501 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 1: on the bat thing while he waited those few seconds 502 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 1: for the call to come in and you go to 503 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 1: the bottom of the ninth off of that call. Yeah, 504 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: it's it's a huge win for technology and stuff and 505 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 1: overall for Fox, a huge win between the interviews and 506 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,640 Speaker 1: the sound that they've gotten and then the quick look 507 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 1: sees and replay system as it's been set up here, 508 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 1: it's all worked out beautifully. Now look now I want 509 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: to say this right, so it's great night for the ABS, 510 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: but here we are bottom of the ninth inning and 511 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 1: there's two outs, okay, two outs, so it looks like 512 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: we could be heading to the tenth th inning. All right, great, okay, 513 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: so Diaz will probably come out and pitch again because 514 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,679 Speaker 1: he pitched, you know, just had a couple of batters, 515 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: had three batters in the uh in the in the 516 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: last inning. So okay. But remember what happened for the 517 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: Tide All Star Game was when everybody ran out of 518 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: pitchers and we couldn't have guys going right, and they're 519 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 1: not going to ruin dz by saying you're just gonna 520 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: pitch until the game is over, right. So I remember 521 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: back then because I was on the air here at 522 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio when they came out and Bud Siele said, 523 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: what do you want me to do it? But now 524 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: that we can do about it, the managers came over 525 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: Joe Torrey, who actually came out to make a pitch. 526 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 1: She changed tonight, you know, so uh, you know I 527 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 1: I you know, I wonder if you're looking at a 528 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 1: potential change now like we're talking about this, if you're 529 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: looking at a potential change for the future of hey 530 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 1: to keep the game going right, to keep the game 531 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: going into Let's make sure there's an extra pitcher who 532 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: is selected for the All Star Game that is a 533 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: starter that can go three or four innings. Right then 534 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: it's okay pitching three or free. Because it's Tuesday night, 535 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 1: we don't play again till Friday, Like what what? What 536 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 1: if we did that so we can keep the game going, 537 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: keep it going after after this, after the ninth inning, 538 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 1: all right, let's have a guy out there and let's go. 539 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: It would be good. And another addendum, because I think 540 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: we go to a home run derby based on the 541 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: the way things are set up now that that work 542 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: was changed a couple of years ago. Yeah, as opposed 543 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:57,239 Speaker 1: to you just can't let Dave Roberts manage. Yeah, so 544 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 1: this means the AL and the NL will both have 545 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: home field in the World Series. Yeah, exactly. So when 546 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 1: the Mets play the Tigers, it's gonna be the world 547 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 1: But it's well, your ideas, just gave the lead up. 548 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 1: It wasn't his fault. It wasn't his fault. He's you 549 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 1: get come on, quand just hit hit with a dribbler? 550 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: Did even make it to he didn't get hurt. That's 551 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: gonna look like a line drive single in the bottom. 552 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: It's a line drive chock. 553 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:27,120 Speaker 5: Uh. 554 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was fine, he was fine. Well, here you 555 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: know what. It's Dave Roberts fault for knowing. Oh wait, 556 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 1: bringing in Edwin Diaz in the middle of an inning 557 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: is not how it's done. I mean, look, I mean 558 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: you don't bring He doesn't come in the middle of innings. 559 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: He likes to start the beginning of the inning. That's 560 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: what you do. Now I'm gonna say, what are you doing? Man? 561 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,959 Speaker 1: What are you doing? What are we doing? Bring him 562 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: in the beginning of the inning when he's used to 563 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 1: coming in. You don't bring him in the middle. It 564 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: always takes him a batter or so to warm up. 565 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: And he got lucky that Chisholm's you know, that rip 566 00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:54,600 Speaker 1: ball down the line was able to get gloved by 567 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: Olsen where he made a play on it. Yeah, he 568 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:59,160 Speaker 1: didn't make the play earlier made that one. So now 569 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: we'll end up with a home run derby three players 570 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: little swings, Here we go, here we go. So it's 571 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 1: probably gonna be I would say, uh, National League, Otani 572 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 1: Alonso third one. I got to think of American League. 573 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: We're gonna get Judge Rally and probably Rooker, probably Rooker. 574 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,959 Speaker 1: I mean, we're getting we're getting We're gonna get history, right, here, 575 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna get history. I do like that you're getting 576 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 1: close to Raleigh, who was the friend in the Diary 577 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: of a Wimpy with your pronunciation. But yeah, three players, 578 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 1: three swings each, So judge Rally and Rooker, right and 579 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: then a lot right? What do you, Steve de Sager? 580 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: What you what he got? Okay? 581 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 5: They just announced it is Rooker, but it's Rosina who 582 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 5: just struck out. 583 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: Okay, essentially he's hot and still in the game. Oh, 584 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: can you not bring a guy back who's out of there? No? 585 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 5: No, In fact, they even they even brought a catcher 586 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 5: back after he got pinched hit for it in late innings. 587 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 5: As far as just you're picking your three, I'm sure 588 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 5: the other guys have just cooled down. So Aronda from 589 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 5: Tampa Bay, the other one, the three from the National League, 590 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 5: Pie Alonzo Suarez who's been in the game, Kyle Schwarber there. 591 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: And ninety eight Mark maguire. We is gonna hit though. 592 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: That means that he didn't break his hand. 593 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 5: He had a good fielding player. 594 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 1: That's good news. That's good news. Yeah, that's good news. 595 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: What happens if Swarez bite somebody? Ooh, maybe the same guy, 596 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: there's been no evidence that he hasn't. You can't tell 597 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: me he hasn't. Right, Uh So here we go, and 598 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: now Pete Alonzo can still win m v P, right 599 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: if if it's if it's more home runs in the 600 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: All Star Game, right, he could do it. I mean, really, 601 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: this is absolute history we're getting right now, they're interviewing 602 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: Dave Robertson and Aaron Boone on the field and you know, 603 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: we'll see how this goes if the home run derby 604 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: is something that people love. 605 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 5: Commissioner Sea League standing and holding his palms up in 606 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 5: the air. 607 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: And you know what happens.

We've not seen 631 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 5: it actually in the flesh until now. Each side, uh 632 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 5: gets to pick the three guys three pitches each.
