24
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,839
Speaker 2: There's no undefeated teams left in baseball, which I mean again,

25
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 2: the best team ends up losing sixty games, but still No.

Speaker 1: One's four and oh, No one's four and.

27
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,119

28
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: who was sucking until then. I was talking smack about

29
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 2: but not really. I wasn't wishing anything bad. But Boba Schett,

30
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 2: who was sucking for the Mets. He was the guy

31
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 2: that got a couple of ribbies yesterday. So it just

32
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 2: shows you baseball such a fickle back and forth game.

33
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:35,400

35
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,440

00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:27,560

90
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 4: Last night? No, you got one? Last night, a DJ

92
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 1: Through with the assists.

93
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 2: Same you, boy, That's how the game is played. Last night,

94
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 2: I'm watching the Yankees and you said it, Rich. The

95
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 2: only run they could score was a sacrifice fly against

96
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 2: the Mariners. Cal Raley, who was like, oh for the season,

97
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 2: comes up in a big situation walks off the Yankees.

98
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 2: But I'm sitting there watching the whole game, right and

99
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 2: throughout the game, the ABS system was put to use.

100
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 1: Bro, Yanks were five for five. Did you see that?

101
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 2: Like it was put to use, and it was like

102
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 2: a grain of rice, as they say, they were getting

103
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 2: it by this much, not this much, this much.

104
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 1: Calls were turned over.

105
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 2: I'm sitting there like, man, I don't know how I

106
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 2: feel about this, because it really could change the outcome

107
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:27,679
Speaker 2: of a game.

108
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: Well, yesterday Dan Byer.

109
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 2: Brought up an umpire that Sota looked a little foolish,

110
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 2: and yesterday it was even worse for him. C B.

111
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: Buckner.

112
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 2: C B. Buckner is not having a good week. This

113
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 2: guy is like it's missing inside outside, It's it's to

114
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 2: the point now inside outside come around. It's to the

115
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 2: point now where some people are just looking a little foolish, right,

116
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 2: And that's not the point. It wasn't created to show

117
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 2: up an umpire. It was created to get it right.

118
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 4: They're calling him D minus Buckner.

119
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:01,359
Speaker 1: Now, ah, not C D. Buckner, D minus fun D

120
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: minus by. I like that.

121
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 6: I like that.

122
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,919
Speaker 2: It's just I you know. And you can see the

123
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 2: look on his face too. It's there's a level of

124
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 2: like embarrassment. I believe he wrung up Trevor's story on

125
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 2: a check swing without checking with the first base umpire

126
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 2: simply out a spite. In my mind, like I feel

127
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 2: like it was is like a spie level to this

128
00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 2: as well. I find it interesting. We talked about the

129
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 2: theatrics of it.

130
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 1: I get it. I'm not one of those haters. Let's

131
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: make it very clear.

132
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 2: I'm just one of those like I don't know how

133
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 2: I feel about it yet, sort of guys right, because

134
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 2: I'm not used to the strategies involved. Like man that

135
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,840
Speaker 2: could have been a strikeout, but now he gets another chance,

136
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,919
Speaker 2: and oh wow, he hit a home run Like that

137
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: wouldn't have happened if they didn't turn it over. Like wow,

138
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 2: that's crazy. So I'm sitting here just like pacing around

139
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 2: my living room because the Yankees challenged five calls five

140
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 2: for five. I'm like, dang, this is wild. And we're

141
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 2: all experiencing this together unless you watch minor the baseball, right,

142
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,359
Speaker 2: we're all experiencing this together in the big leagues. So

143
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 2: I'm sitting there and my girlfriend, who watches casually, I

144
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 2: mean she watches me watching it. That's what she does.

145
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 2: She watches me watching while scrolling on her phone. She

146
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 2: sees me pacing around, like scratching my noggin about it. Yes,

147
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 2: said it was March thirtieth. Relax, Relax, I don't get it. Oh,

148
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 2: you have one hundred and fifty nine games left. You're

149
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 2: pacing around. You pace it around gets postseason baseball. You're

150
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 2: pacing around on March thirtieth. Man, get my steps in, bro,

151
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 2: Why you don't do that. You're cleaning your counters club.

152
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 2: We're mixing mirrors, like nine five hundred steps. I wanted

153
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 2: to get five hundred more in my living room.

154
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: Relax. It's Mark, Wow, the most hyper guy on the planet.

155
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 1: You want me to relax. Relax the guy who can's

156
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: is still for three seconds. But the stakes are low, bro,

157
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: I'm watching the game. I'm walking around the living room.

158
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: You don't do that.

159
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 2: I'm the only guy. I gotta lay there and sit

160
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 2: there the whole time. So anyway, I'm watching the game.

161
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 2: It's nail bier five calls. I'm still trying to figure

162
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 2: out how I feel about the ABS system. I think

163
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 2: much like a lot of people. And my girlfriend, because

164
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 2: again she's a casual fan, she doesn't carry their way.

165
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 2: She's like, why do they even have umpires? Like what's

166
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: the point then? And I can't think of one logical

167
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 2: reason other than.

168
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: To move the game along. You know, it's always great.

169
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 2: To watch sometimes, not only baseball, any sport or something

170
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 2: with someone that doesn't know anything about it, because sometimes

171
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,959
Speaker 2: they will actually pose really interesting questions like why.

172
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: Do they do that?

173
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 2: And you're like, I really don't know why the referees

174
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 2: do this?

175
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: Or hey, why are the coaches?

176
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 3: You know?

177
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 2: Like I think I had an X ask me once

178
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 2: They're like, why did baseball managers wear uniforms like they're

179
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 2: on the team. I'm like, you know what, so I'm

180
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 2: like tradition. I'm trying to explain, you know, the human element.

181
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 2: She's like, yeah, but if they have the ability to

182
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 2: get it right, what's the point.

183
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,239
Speaker 1: That they're challenge human element? Aren't they?

184
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 7: Yes?

185
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: But you know I'm an element old school guys. Uh,

186
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: you know umpires need jobs too?

187
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 4: Or the next question?

188
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:11,199
Speaker 2: So I challenge you Fox Sports Radio Nation, I do everybody,

189
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 2: Can anyone give me a serious answer because I need

190
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 2: to know. I'm like Mark Anthony, I need to know

191
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 2: for when my daughter slides into the kitchen asks me, hey, dad,

192
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 2: if they have automatic balls and strikes, why do they

193
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 2: have an umpire?

194
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: I need an.

195
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 2: Answer to explain to someone else, the guy at the

196
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 2: barber shop.

197
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 1: Hey, why do they even have umpires?

198
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 6: Man?

199
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 2: If they got the automatic ball strike system. Can anyone

200
00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 2: give me a logical answer other than well, you know,

201
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 2: the human element which could be challenged or you know,

202
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,839
Speaker 2: to move the game along. And you know what's scary

203
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 2: about that rich I forget who was saying it recently,

204
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 2: but like, oh's Mike Row mic Row of dirty jobs.

205
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 2: I mean that guy was right with all his blue

206
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,599
Speaker 2: collar stuff. He was those those are the jobs that

207
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 2: are safe. He's absolutely right, because everything else is unnew.

208
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 2: Like Rich and I, we also host a music channel

209
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 2: right on Serious XM. Do they need us don't say

210
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 2: that aloud, No, but it's the truth. Do they need

211
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 2: me to say, Hey, here's Metallica. Hey, and by the way,

212
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 2: here's Godsmack. But what do I do? I keep it

213
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 2: moving right, to move it along. And I really think

214
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 2: that's the only real use of an umpire right now,

215
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 2: to keep it moving, to move it along.

216
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 8: But you're also the narrator. You you are part of

217
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 8: the living organism which which for like a home plate umpire,

218
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 8: there's more than there's more of the game situation than

219
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 8: just calling balls.

220
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 2: And try delaying the inevitable. It's as clear as these

221
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 2: on my face. There's no logical explanation as to why

222
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 2: we just don't go with the ABS system unless there's

223
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 2: a it's gonna delay the game, and they're proving that

224
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 2: it's not. Really it's pretty automatic. It's hydromatic. Well, I

225
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 2: said it yesterday. I compared it slightly to self checkout

226
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 2: at a supermarket, where you're gonna opt yourself check out.

227
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 2: But you're like, oh, look there's a couple, you know,

228
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 2: a couple of people in their retirement jobs.

229
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 1: I don't want.

230
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 2: I don't want Bob and you know Bob and Cindy's

231
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 2: jobs to go away.

232
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: They could do check out.

233
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 7: Well, you needed for alcohol, right, alcohol? You need for

234
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,199
Speaker 7: a for a play at the plate? Are you suggesting

235
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 7: that a buyer like sits in a chair off to

236
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 7: the side, and then when the balls in play he

237
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 7: ends up. He would then call the home plate play.

238
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,079
Speaker 1: I can see that, but you you don't need all

239
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: of those umpires.

240
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 2: I don't mind him standing there just for the illusion,

241
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 2: Like I field the umpire like some sort of someone

242
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 2: in charge out there.

243
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 7: How about they have a gate like in Rodeo, and

244
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,839
Speaker 7: then when the balls in play, the gate busts open

245
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 7: and the umpire runs.

246
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 2: Now you're talking that some banana stuff, pediatrics, Dan, I

247
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 2: there are theatrics.

248
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: There's things involved. I get it. There's a transition going.

249
00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 4: With anybody get trampled.

250
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,439
Speaker 2: But Mike Rowe recently said publicly and Rich you already

251
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 2: said it like the only jobs that are save our

252
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 2: trade jobs. You know everyone's gonna need a plumber an

253
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 2: electrician of sorts like those are the jobs that are

254
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 2: really gonna mean something in the future.

255
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: They're not going away.

256
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 2: So when she's asking me, when a casual fan, my

257
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 2: girlfriend is asking me, well, then why do you have umpires?

258
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: What's the point?

259
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 2: I don't have a real answer, so I'm asking for help.

260
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: Does anyone have the answer?

261
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 3: You know.

262
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 2: It's like our video guy Spot. There are sometimes when

263
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 2: we'll ask him a question and we got very used

264
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 2: to him rudely saying Google it should I chat ept this?

265
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 2: Google it should I chatchy? And you know what, I'll

266
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 2: be honest thought, Sam, let's use our brains.

267
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: Sam. There are times, I know, Sam, you're very anti

268
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: this stuff.

269
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 5: I mean, when I Google something, it's already using AI,

270
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,199
Speaker 5: so it is I'm already involved in it.

271
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: You know.

272
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 2: It's like, uh, it's like the old time DJ when

273
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 2: you guys all started in radio, Remember the old time DJ.

274
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 2: That was like, yeah, I don't want to play sheets

275
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 2: or off a computer. I want to play records. And

276
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 2: it's like, you have it's not gonna last, my buddy,

277
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 2: It's not gonna It's not gonna last.

278
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:05,680
Speaker 1: And by the way, I found the list on the

279
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: New York Post two days ago.

280
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's an article about the jobs that are most

281
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 2: exposed to AI that a guy replaced.

282
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 4: What's a job?

283
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:20,239
Speaker 2: A job job job jibe talking uh, web and digital designers,

284
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:26,160
Speaker 2: web developers, anything to do with databases, computer programmers, data scientists.

285
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: All this stuff is going away.

286
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 5: However, though, even if you're using ABS and if you're

287
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 5: using AI, you still need a human quality checker.

288
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: That's fine.

289
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 5: You need like somebody, like let's say that you work

290
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 5: in an official of so you work in some like

291
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 5: uh what do you call it? Those uh warehouses they're building,

292
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 5: like these data data farms. Stuff, you still need like

293
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,959
Speaker 5: one person who is like ot growing a long silver

294
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,720
Speaker 5: beard to like go through with a with a list

295
00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 5: and check things off, make sure everything's going as corded plan.

296
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 2: Doesn't make a whole lot of sense. As lifelong fans,

297
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 2: we've accepted the new and we're like, all right, cool,

298
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 2: all right, Yeah, it's been in development for years now,

299
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 2: all right, cool cool, But there's really no real answer

300
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 2: as to why we have a home plate umpire. Then

301
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:11,720
Speaker 2: so I posted a question of rich maybe you should

302
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 2: collin AI it and while you do that, Aaron Boone

303
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,319
Speaker 2: spoke about it recently too, and he was a guy

304
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 2: that was completely against it at first, and and much

305
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 2: like it's sort of growing on.

306
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: I'm take a.

307
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 3: Listen, I've definitely moved a little more in favor. In

308
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 3: part it's we've been good at it the first four

309
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 3: i still think it's a little bit odd, so I'm

310
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 3: still getting my opinion on it, which in the end

311
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 3: now doesn't really matter.

312
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 2: You know.

313
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 3: It's like, you know, I kind of switched to this

314
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 3: winner when we started really having zooms and stuff with

315
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,840
Speaker 3: coaches and people in our office to kind of go

316
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 3: through strategies and you know, learn about what we've learned

317
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 3: about this to this point. Once I knew it was

318
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 3: a reality, I shifted to kind of how do we

319
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 3: exploit this and be the best we can be at this.

320
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 2: That's another layer that a lot of us haven't really explored.

321
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 2: We thought about it, but have you really explored like

322
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 2: the best counts to challenge to put yourself in a

323
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 2: better hitting situation? Oh, without a doubt, Like they know

324
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 2: what have you figured out? Like is it common knowledge?

325
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 2: They as to when and when not do it? They've

326
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 2: already talked about this. I've I've heard people, and I've

327
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 2: thought about it myself sometimes the first pitch of it

328
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 2: at bat. They say, when you analyze what what proceeds.

329
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: Not proceeds, what comes after? That would be what proceeds

330
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: as before let me use my head.

331
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 2: Receeds is your hairline. So that's not, well, how about

332
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 2: what comes after what follows? When you look at batting

333
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 2: average and percentages when you start one to oh versus

334
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 2: zero and one drastically different. So they're saying in the

335
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 2: beginning of account if if the first pitch is a ball,

336
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 2: what one to oh is right, way different than.

337
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: The whole outcome of the bat.

338
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:58,960
Speaker 2: It's it's not just save it for three to two

339
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 2: runners on base bottom of the seventh. Aaron Bone even

340
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 2: talked about that in the beginning of the season, where

341
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 2: but use it. Yeah, all the players have to be

342
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 2: up on that, and some players are going to be

343
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 2: better than others. But you know, there's so much strategy

344
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 2: involved here that I am having a hard time figuring out, like, well,

345
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 2: why do we need umpires?

346
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: Are we are we just delaying it?

347
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 7: Dan Bible, I mean to your point about the optics

348
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 7: of having somebody there on a bunt on whether it's

349
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 7: fair and foul right in front of the catcher. You're

350
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 7: going to need that certain point of view that you

351
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 7: would like on an instant call. Any call can be

352
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 7: reviewed and changed. But I think that that would be

353
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 7: a reason why you would have an umpire in that spot.

354
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 7: Whether they're calling balls or strikes would be separate of it,

355
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 7: but you still would probably need a person at that

356
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 7: spot for those sort of plays bunched on the line.

357
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 4: Fair fouled.

358
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 2: You know, that's a really fair answer. That's a good answer.

359
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 2: I mean that there's gonna be a home plate umpire

360
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 2: on hand. It's just a matter of will they call

361
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 2: or will that be difficult? Maybe there's a just a

362
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 2: field umpire and he's there. Maybe there's two empires instead

363
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 2: of yeah, you know, like I don't know.

364
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 7: Because I think that people think, like, let's get rid

365
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 7: of the home played umpire. They just don't want anybody there,

366
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,919
Speaker 7: Like what's but you're gonna need someone for that base

367
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 7: to at least record it there. So but on there

368
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 7: there your models will just call balls and strikes as well.

369
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,640
Speaker 2: dB, I'm with you because Rich brought this up. I'll

370
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 2: give credit to my guy here to my left, Rich Davis.

371
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 4: Rich David, I've never heard you do that before.

372
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 1: This is rare.

373
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna sit back and take it. I'm not hating

374
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 2: on the ABS system. Let's get it right. But so

375
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 2: many of these calls that they are challenging that they're

376
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 2: missing are so on the edge of the strike zone,

377
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,439
Speaker 2: like like I'm talking Greg Greg Mannix, just right there

378
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 2: hitting the corners. But by this much, there's only been

379
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 2: a few calls where they were like drastically off, like

380
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 2: only a few. All the ones that they that have

381
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 2: challenged and they've been wrong about are so close that

382
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,199
Speaker 2: it's like they could have been a strike if it

383
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 2: was Dan Bayer. I apologize. I talked to someone about this.

384
00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 2: You showed me that chart. Yeah, no, that the chart

385
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,920
Speaker 2: of the challenge call. So far, there were only two

386
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 2: obvious ones where there was a ball right down the

387
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,679
Speaker 2: middle of that they called yeah. So for something like

388
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 2: that there was challenge that there was a low and

389
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 2: outside one. But most of the balls that have been challenged,

390
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 2: good and bad, like overturned or not, are like literally

391
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 2: like you know, when you see a spray chart of

392
00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 2: shots in the NBA, the spray chart of ball it

393
00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 2: was literally around the square except two exceptions. And with

394
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 2: that said, then you're really taking away the intricacies of

395
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 2: an umpire strike zone. Someone was saying, how great fighting

396
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 2: of the you know, don't you like the human elment

397
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 2: of the managers and the umpires. There was a there

398
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 2: was a manager yesterday was at the Twins where he

399
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 2: was arguing and the announcers.

400
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 1: Like, you can't argue on you can't argue robots.

401
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 8: But that's another reason you need them to handle the

402
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 8: in person disputes robots.

403
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: It's a strike.

404
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 2: But based on what I'll saying with that chart, someone

405
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 2: was saying, like a guy like Greg Maddox would strategically

406
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 2: work parts of the zone to get the call later

407
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 2: in the game and slowly work around the zone that's over.

408
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 2: And then the other to is we all got little kids,

409
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 2: when does this start? So you use umpires until you

410
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 2: get to the big So like, it's not like little

411
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 2: league and pony ball and high school and college they

412
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 2: gonna have abs.

413
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 1: No way. So maybe you.

414
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 2: Say no way, but I bet you it's it's probably

415
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 2: going to be even more simple to figure out how

416
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 2: to do this in the future.

417
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: You think all of that in.

418
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 2: Team side, sideline, team sideline is gonna get a new

419
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 2: uh yeah, new equipment be a stupid app that you

420
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 2: can have on your phone and a year and a half.

421
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 7: The postseasons are are ruled differently than the regular season.

422
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 7: We don't have right field and left field uh line

423
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,199
Speaker 7: umpires during the regular season. So what that tells me

424
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 7: is that Major League Baseball with whatever they want to

425
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 7: do with the Umpires Association, But if you wanted to

426
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 7: keep down costs and only pay three guys, they already

427
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 7: do it. Because if it's if it's that important for

428
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 7: the postseason where you need a guy down right and

429
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 7: you need a guy down left, then you probably should

430
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 7: have them there in the regular season as well. It's

431
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 7: not like the NFL edge three more guys in the

432
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 7: playoffs or the NBA adds another official in the postseason,

433
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 7: but for whatever reason, and Major League Baseball does it

434
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 7: that way. But yeah, so I could see them subtracting

435
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 7: if they ever needed to, because if you look at

436
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,679
Speaker 7: the postseason, it doesn't matter on what they and they

437
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 7: change it anyway for the postseason.

438
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: Desp a really really interesting. I find the spray chart.

439
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 7: Well, that was the problem with Buckner, by the way,

440
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 7: because he had one inside and one outside it.

441
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 2: But that's the size of Ohio. I want to try

442
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,959
Speaker 2: to find that picture though, because it really is like

443
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,880
Speaker 2: you know when something is like, well, it wasn't designed

444
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 2: for that, but that's what people are using it for.

445
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 2: I feel like, again, most of the calls that were

446
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 2: overturned or not are within inches of the of that

447
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 2: square the K zone. Only two or three so far

448
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 2: the season are like, wow, that was a bad call,

449
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 2: And I think it was designed for the bad call

450
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 2: when it's you know, when it's like.

451
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,400
Speaker 1: Ooh three and one ball.

452
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 2: Four and it's like no, nicked it by like like

453
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 2: a grain of rice, Like is that was that?

454
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 1: What is designed for it? To get it right?

455
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 4: I like in football when the shoe is like right

456
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 4: on the white line.

457
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a fun sort of transition to be

458
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 2: a part of to watch. Hey, by the way, Rich

459
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 2: and I share something in common. Our very first paying

460
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 2: jobs were little league umpires, little league umpires, So not

461
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 2: hating on the Empires, just speculating on Hey, if we

462
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 2: have the ability to get it right, give me a

463
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 2: logical answer as to why there's a home played umpire

464
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 2: I modeled because we were taking it slow.

465
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: Is that really? It is that the real true? And

466
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,160
Speaker 1: it's like it's a slow transition.

467
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 2: By the way, I modeled my litt League umpiring after

468
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 2: Leslie Nielsen and they could gun.

469
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, Studyes.

470
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 2: By the way, what was it like fifteen dollars a

471
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 2: game behind home play?

472
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,360
Speaker 1: I think twenty ten dollars in the field? I think

473
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:43,239
Speaker 1: is what I started out.

474
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 2: He was twenty behind home play ten or fifteen in

475
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 2: the field. I umpired Little League for a good two

476
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 2: three years. There was a great, great learning experience. You know,

477
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 2: these guys under are under a lot of pressure. It's

478
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 2: not meant to embarrass them. We established that yesterday is

479
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 2: to get it right. But what's the point. What's the

480
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:05,200
Speaker 2: point of keeping them around if we have the ability

481
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 2: to get it right in a really decent amount of time.

482
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: It's a great question.

Speaker 1: Marc Anthony, who needs to know? And Marc Anthony, why

522
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:27,919
Speaker 1: do we need to know?

523
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 2: I need to know why we have homeplate umpires. I

524
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 2: need to know. Here's what's bothering me the most.

525
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: I need to know.

526
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 2: How I feel about this because I'm so confused by

527
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 2: everything about it.

528
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I know how it works. You said you're

529
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 1: confused by two things the finale of Paradise last night. Yeah,

530
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,879
Speaker 1: I was confused by it and why are we what

531
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: are we doing with abs?

532
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 2: I like Dan Byer's reasoning of well, you need a

533
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 2: homeplate umpire for a fair ball down the line, I'm like, well,

534
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 2: you can have like a field official, like a field umpire,

535
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 2: one umpire. Do you really need the homeplate umpire If

536
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 2: we have the ability to get the calls right? Are

537
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,240
Speaker 2: we doing it for the theatrics of it? Are we

538
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 2: doing it to keep the game moving because you know

539
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 2: the umpire is going to get some wrong. I think

540
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 2: in the Yankee game last night, and again that's the

541
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,679
Speaker 2: one I was watching, So feel free to represent your

542
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 2: team or whatever. Eight seven, seven ninety nine, O Fox,

543
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 2: the Yankees challenge five calls?

544
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,400
Speaker 1: They were five for five. Right.

545
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 2: There's a whole other stat that we're going to have

546
00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 2: to figure out too, like, Yo, how good is your

547
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 2: team at getting these calls right versus the umpire?

548
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:31,880
Speaker 1: It's almost like, how's your team on fourth down?

549
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 6: Right?

550
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: Exactly? Yeah?

551
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 2: Well, I think the umpire had twelve missed calls or

552
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 2: something like that, so like there was still twelve calls

553
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 2: that they didn't get, So, you know, there's so much.

554
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:44,640
Speaker 1: Confusion around it.

555
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 2: But I ask you this question because my girlfriend asked

556
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 2: me yesterday why do they have homeplate umpires? Then I

557
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 2: don't have a real, like honest answer. I don't know

558
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:54,920
Speaker 2: what are you doing?

559
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 8: You don't tell her about the rest of the rules

560
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 8: that they have to enforce the rules. And then I

561
00:25:58,480 --> 00:25:59,520
Speaker 8: brought up the disputes.

562
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:01,680
Speaker 1: But the fights are fun, right.

563
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 8: Yeah, the manager getting his shoes like dirt kicked on

564
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 8: his cleats.

565
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: The days of Loop Panela and Tommy Lesorda.

566
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 8: And still there's still in person disputes though that a

567
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 8: robot's not going to be able to fix.

568
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 2: Sometimes, sometimes you like a good baseball fight and an

569
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,400
Speaker 2: ejection and these things. I like that too. I'm with

570
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 2: you on it. I'm not hating. I'm just stating that

571
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 2: doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I have the answer,

572
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 2: and it's through sad analogy. But by the way, what

573
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 2: what dB said. I agree that a homeplate umpire more

574
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 2: is an administrator of sorts, like almost overseeing the game.

575
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 2: Like a homeplate umpire is sort of the the crew chief.

576
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,000
Speaker 1: That's sort of Still.

577
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,240
Speaker 2: I hate to say, we're just in a weird transitional phase.

578
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,959
Speaker 2: This is not how it's going to remain permanent.

579
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: I'll tell you it's not. Can I give you a

580
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 1: sad analogy? Sure?

581
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,080
Speaker 2: So we lost our dog in December. Man, you're already

582
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 2: making me, said Piper Waffles. Our little French bulldog.

583
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 1: I was Sam.

584
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 2: You would play with that dog every time you came over.

585
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,120
Speaker 2: Sam and my dog got a little bond spot too,

586
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 2: our buddy Spot and hot Piper.

587
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: No spotshet a tear at my house. I would expect it.

588
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 2: Piper was a sweet little sausage roll. Can I tell

589
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 2: you something not to get all sad? You know her

590
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 2: dog ball is still out because my wife doesn't have

591
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,919
Speaker 2: the heart to officially put it away.

592
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 1: Sad.

593
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 2: I use that set analogy. We're not ready to say

594
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 2: goodbye to umpires because there's a part of us that's like, yeah,

595
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 2: but it's like part of the game, and like you know,

596
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 2: like the minute we think about the umpires and it's

597
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 2: officially robots, Okay, we're keeping around, keeping them around for

598
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 2: anyone over seventy, but we're keeping them around simply because

599
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,719
Speaker 2: we're almost scared to move on in a way, and

600
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 2: think about like I felt that way, Rich, Remember when

601
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,199
Speaker 2: we fired our original producer, but we kept them around

602
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 2: as a video guy until eventually faded away. Is that

603
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 2: we do it all our producers making video guys and

604
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: then get and then get rid of it. Not joking, Spot,

605
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 2: but that's the truth. Wait wait what who our original original?

606
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 2: Is this the pre spot era? Yeah, a pre pre

607
00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 2: Spot era. He's like BC versus eight.

608
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're not.

609
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 2: Gonna really get ready, dude, Like you can make videos

610
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 2: for us and stuff, and then eventually that went away,

611
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 2: and that's what we're what we're seeing here.

612
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 8: I agree with you, Rich, Yeah, but sometimes you leave

613
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:13,199
Speaker 8: a company and they don't know or realize everything you

614
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 8: did until you're gone. I don't know, there's a list

615
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 8: of things and like wait, oh he did that any

616
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 8: took care? Oh and we got to cover that now.

617
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 8: So you guys are not digging deep enough to what

618
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 8: all the job responsibilities are for that homeplate?

619
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 4: Umpire.

620
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what, Danny G. I hate to give

621
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 2: you another sad analogy. I'm like, really bringing the sadness today.

622
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:34,679
Speaker 1: In your phone?

623
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 2: Do you have phone numbers of people that are no

624
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 2: longer with us? Sure, because deep down inside you're never

625
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 2: going to delete it because that's like a weird like.

626
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: I'm removing them.

627
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 2: You keep them around, like some people will text a

628
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 2: relative as some type of like therapeutic thing. Like I'm

629
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,959
Speaker 2: just saying, we don't like to let things go, and

630
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 2: I think Umpires We're really just gonna hang around and

631
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 2: see and they're gonna be there adventure at one point,

632
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 2: they're gonna be there just monitoring because you need someone.

633
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 2: And I think we're, like Cavino said, we're in a

634
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 2: weird world where if you thought it was weird when

635
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 2: social media and the Internet took over AI, people in

636
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 2: that world will tell you AI is gonna dwarf the

637
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 2: changes we saw with the internet.

638
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 1: If we thought the Internet and.

639
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 2: Social media changed our lives, people are saying AI. There's

640
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 2: people already talking about it in our lifetime. Anytime you

641
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 2: get a surgery or you're a doctor, it's gonna be

642
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 2: like a robot claud doing it, and there's gonna be

643
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 2: someone there sort of monitoring it. I mean, we're I mean,

644
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 2: every industry is gonna change with AI. Let's get a

645
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 2: few phone calls Dan, Dan Buyer's update. So the question

646
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:50,719
Speaker 2: is why do we even have umpires? Do you have

647
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:52,640
Speaker 2: a real logical answer for that?

648
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 1: Feel sad to say goodbye to them? Danny? Do you

649
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 1: want to go rapid fire?

650
00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's start with Randy in Kentucky.

651
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: Randy, what's up, Bud? What's up? Man?

652
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 6: Hey? So I think I got four things. You got

653
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 6: safe out calls at home plate, yep, you got obstruction calls, catchers, interference,

654
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 6: the ball hits.

655
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,719
Speaker 2: Them, Randy, there's reasons. I think we're more asking like

656
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 2: why do we why do we have them for like

657
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 2: an strike, balls and strikes?

658
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: If we're committed to getting the call right, why not

659
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: just get it right?

660
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 2: I think we could all agree, and Dan Bye brought

661
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,520
Speaker 2: up the best point, like there's other calls a homeplate

662
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 2: Onpire makes, but I'm saying, let's stick to the balls

663
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 2: and strikes. Why we even why are we like soft

664
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 2: launching this just to make sure it's right. You think

665
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 2: it a year from now, we're like, yeah, it works, Yep.

666
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 2: They tested this, they've been doing it, I think over

667
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 2: three years. They've been using it, and it's been in

668
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:45,920
Speaker 2: development for a long time.

669
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 8: So but with the pro level, I don't think they

670
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 8: can just go cold turkey. Yeah, you're right, and people

671
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 8: got to get used to it, especially baseball fans.

672
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 7: How much do you guys think that a baseball umpire's

673
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:00,560
Speaker 7: reputation plays into this. They're really the only issues that

674
00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 7: confront teams, and I think that everyone is relishing in

675
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,600
Speaker 7: the fact that these umpires are being put in their place. Yeah,

676
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 7: you know, like there's something to that you don't see.

677
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 5: You know, what's that, Jason Stewart, I'm sorry, Jason is

678
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 5: like to explain your story.

679
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 2: I'm sorry that Jason's relishing in the fact that the

680
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 2: mpires being buried.

681
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 5: I thought we all saw his social media post. I'm sorry,

682
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 5: shouldn't jump the gun there. Jason's kind of liking the

683
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 5: fact they're getting a little bit you know.

684
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, like you don't see you don't see Sean Hockyly,

685
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 7: you know, getting in the face of Robert Salah, you know,

686
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 7: on a holding call or or anything like that, like

687
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 7: it would be. Yeah, it's these are the only officials

688
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 7: that end up doing it in are arrogant and at

689
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 7: times brash and sometimes start their own confrontations.

690
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 4: And now they're kind of being put in their place.

691
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 2: But I know how sad it is for them, though,

692
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 2: you imagine they're still as arrogant as they may have been. Right,

693
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 2: and we all hated the Empires, it brought a lot

694
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 2: of fun. You say, you love the Billy Martin umpire back.

695
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a little kid. That was one of the

696
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 8: things that drew us to the game.

697
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 1: They were the guys that made the call.

698
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 2: Now it's like they have no power and they have

699
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 2: to go home to their wife all defeated, Like what's wrong, Honey's.

700
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 1: Like, oh no, it was embarrassed again at.

701
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 2: The field today, Like they are probably losing sleep at night,

702
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 2: Like I love to hear an interview with one of

703
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 2: these guys, to hear the nightmare that they're living through

704
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 2: right now.

705
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: When you got the entire crowds you say you're in against.

706
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 8: They used to be Big Mike who ran the police,

707
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 8: and now they don't run.

708
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: Can give you, I'll give you.

709
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,520
Speaker 2: Listen, man, I'm feeling like I'm rolling with the analogies.

710
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 2: But you know what it's like a program director before

711
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 2: Spotify and Apple and you know, iHeart streaming, before everything

712
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:45,479
Speaker 2: became more accessible on social media. Program directors used to

713
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 2: have artists by the nuts, like you want us to

714
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 2: play your song, Well you got blah blah blah and

715
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 2: blah blah blah. Now it's like an artist is like, yeah,

716
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 2: we don't need you as much. I feel a little

717
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 2: bad for them. I do. And it's like a hot

718
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 2: chick that's no longer hot, like she was a hot

719
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 2: like now she's like middle aged fatty. When she used

720
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 2: to be hot, she she thinks she could bust around guys.

721
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 1: Not anymore.

722
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 2: And you know it's like, you know, there's certain people

723
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 2: to get out before the getting's good. I always say

724
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,040

725
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:13,600

Speaker 7: These two teams beat the Lakers shot over sixty percent.

805
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 1: What are they shooting right now? Sixty and a half percent?

806
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 4: They got their number.

807
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 2: Lakers made it look easy last night, easy over the

808
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,720
Speaker 2: Wizards won twenty one to one. That call was courtesy

809
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,399
Speaker 2: of Lakers Television from Spectrum Sportsnet, and that was our

Speaker 2: be I'm Cavino, that is Rich, Danny g is here,

816
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 2: Sam Bayer, and you Fox Sports Radio Nation. Now, by

817
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 2: the way, less than ten games left in the NBA.

818
00:37:58,080 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 2: You and I always talk about how the regular season

819
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 2: for you and I is more of a casual watch,

820
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, like a flip switches

821
00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 2: for me where I'm like, oh, let's watch now, and

822
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:10,040
Speaker 2: I'm like, NBA playoffs. I think it's the one sport

823
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 2: where I couldn't really care much about the regular season

824
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 2: compared to the playoffs.

825
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 1: But playoff time we're here.

826
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 2: Man.

827
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 1: The question is if we have the abs system and

828
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:19,879
Speaker 1: it's working great.

829
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 4: It just made me feel like a loser because I

830
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:22,280
Speaker 4: watched the whole season.

831
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: I know, I know, Danny, you know why. I'll tell

832
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 1: you what.

833
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 2: I hate the idea that when you include the playing round, right,

834
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 2: the new playing round from a couple of years ago.

835
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 2: Now you're talking about twenty of the thirty two teams

836
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 2: are in like that. To me, it's like too easy,

837
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 2: too easy to be involved, like the other five hundred

838
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 2: teams make.

839
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 1: It every year.

840
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:41,319
Speaker 4: In the East Man there's only thirty teams.

841
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, thirty, twenty and thirty.

842
00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 2: My bad, I was thirty in MLB thirty and basketball

843
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 2: thirty two in the NFL.

844
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: Rich was counting the Globetrotters and the generals. Now he's right. Yeah.

845
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 4: Is there Seattle in Las Vegas, y? Just looking into

846
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 4: the future like AI?

847
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 1: Now I'm Alex from Paradise.

848
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 2: Is there a logical reason as to why there's still

849
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 2: homeplate umpires?

850
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 1: That's part of the question.

851
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 2: But I think what you're really getting at when you

852
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 2: hear our discussion, or what I'm trying to figure out myself,

853
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 2: is that you're not alone if you feel like there's

854
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,759
Speaker 2: some sort of adjustment when you're watching just as a spectator,

855
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 2: because I'm sort of watching like, huh.

856
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 1: I don't even know how to feel about this.

857
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 2: Well again, it's we have a hard time adjusting humans.

858
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 2: Humans having a hard time with change, right, So that's

859
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,960
Speaker 2: why we do things slowly and you know, step by step.

860
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 2: I definitely don't hate it, but it is an adjustment.

861
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,319
Speaker 2: Let's take one quick phone call now and wrap it

862
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 2: up at the top of the out.

863
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 4: How do we thank you to everybody for holding here?

864
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 4: Mo in Arizona?

865
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 2: What mo?

866
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 3: Hey, guys, how's it going?

867
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:47,799
Speaker 1: What's up? Man?

868
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 7: Much?

869
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: Okay?

870
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 8: I'm my old school so you got you know, I

871
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 8: got to have the human element.

872
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,320
Speaker 3: You know, uh, who on the third strike?

873
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 2: And I mean and then also you know who's going to.

874
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 5: Run, the manager and the player you're going to pitch?

875
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 1: By the way, there you go. Even if it were automated,

876
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 1: don't you need something to do at all?

877
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 2: He said, logical answer, Not like God, that's your personal

878
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 2: goofy preference. No, you tell me a third strike that

879
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 2: that knicks the corner.

880
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 1: Dude, you need a little my calculations say you are round,

881
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: they can do it.

882
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 2: This is good to make fun of. See Buckler More

883
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,839
Speaker 2: and Pylon. Did you see your pal Jumboy saying that

884
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:41,720
Speaker 2: throughout the game you could tell his call third strikes

885
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 2: became less emphatic because he he was he was feeling

886
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 2: the doubt in himself. Like first inning he was, by

887
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 2: the eighth inning he was like, he was like, it's

888
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 2: an adjustment for all of us.

889
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,879
Speaker 1: Everybody absolutely is, and that's what makes an interest. All right, Well, hey,

890
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 1: we turn our.

892
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 1: We have a lot coming up, but.

893
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 2: Football, Is there any reason why teams would want to

894
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 2: play internationally? Kyle Shanahan and spoke out, and as a

895
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 2: Niners fan, I'm curious what you think about what he said.

896
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 2: We'll get to that in a bunch more next right

897
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:19,800
Speaker 2: here on CNR
