1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,000
Speaker 1: Players would text me and I'll be up all night

2
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: trying to answer those calls.

3
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 2: Absolutely, that's exactly how it would. I had to cut

4
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:08,960
Speaker 2: myself off and get myself from the time in the

5
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 2: morning to breathe. So it was crazy.

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 3: A centerfielder Denzel Clark joining us right now. Denzel, great

7
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 3: to have you on the show. Thanks for the time.

8
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 3: I'm going to get right right to biz here. Denzel.

9
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 3: Take me through the catch the other night that goes

10
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 3: hyper viral, and I'll add because I always want to

11
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 3: recruit more baseball fans, that's the kind of catch that

12
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 3: can bring in a fan who doesn't give a crap

13
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 3: about baseball and they look at that and they're like, oh,

14
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:42,480
Speaker 3: that's going on in baseball. I'll watch the A's tonight.

15
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think it is something I practiced, like I'll

16
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 2: take a round a VP by the wall and just like,

17
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 2: you know, just work on my distance by the wall scale. Yeah,

18
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 2: just trying to like work on my timing and stuff.

19
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 2: So I'm just putting all together and again, yeah, first

20
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 2: step route, everything came together, went up and grab the ball.

21
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 2: It was Yeah, it was honestly one more special catches

22
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 2: I've made. I have scaled the wall before I did Toronto.

23
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 2: I've done it in college a couple of times. That

24
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 2: was probably one of the better ones I've made.

25
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 4: At me, all right, tell me what's your best catch

26
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 4: you've ever made? If that ain't it, is it the

27
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 4: one that made the other day where you almost killed

28
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 4: yourself it broke your shoulder like a million places. I mean,

29
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 4: if that ain't it, then which one's your best one?

30
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 2: No? That that is? That is for sure the best one.

31
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 2: But I did. I did have one in college to

32
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 2: cal State Northridge. It was It's the funniest story because

33
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 2: it's honestly a myth at this point. But it's a

34
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 2: second game of a doubleheader. It wasn't a stream or getting

35
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 2: blown up by twenty games. All the fans have left,

36
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,839
Speaker 2: all the scouts have left. Is like late in the game,

37
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 2: brooks Lee for the Twins hit one and I went

38
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 2: kind of similar, went a full extension over the points

39
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 2: and droped that one too. But there's no there's nothing

40
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 2: about that one, no.

41
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 5: Campus or anything.

42
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 2: So that's the only one that would would have been close.

43
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 2: But this one takes the cake for sure.

44
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 6: Denzel uh So, was that one more like a ninety

45
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 6: three catch. I don't know if you saw it, but

46
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 6: the one you went over the wall to catch is

47
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 6: one in Anaheim that we're talking about. It said on

48
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 6: stat cast it was a ninety three percent percent catch probability.

49
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 5: What do you I mean, what did you see that?

50
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 5: Did you know? I'm sorry?

51
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 6: Ninety five percent catch probability. Essentially it was a guaranteed catch,

52
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 6: is what stat cast said.

53
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 5: Did you see that? And what are your comments on that? Yeah?

54
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: I heard about that. I mean, like that's a pretty

55
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 2: easy play. I don't know, I don't I'm pretty sure

56
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 2: they're right. I mean ninety five percent. I think everyone's

57
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 2: making that catch, So yeah, I think they're right.

58
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 7: That's great.

59
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 4: That's crazy, that whole thing, ninety five percent. I couldn't

60
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 4: have made that catch in my prime of prime, I

61
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 4: don't think.

62
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 3: I mean, how many center fielders can make a catch

63
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 3: like that right now? There ain't a lot, No, not many,

64
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 3: not a lot. We could Actually we could come up

65
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 3: with one guy in his prime who did make There's

66
00:02:59,240 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 3: a guy who.

67
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 7: Played with that probably could have made that catch.

68
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 4: I saw it make some pretty good catchers, and I

69
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,519
Speaker 4: think one time Denzel did guy.

70
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 5: Tweeted at you the other day.

71
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 7: You know who this guy is.

72
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 5: What's up, Benzell?

73
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 2: How we doing?

74
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 7: Now? We're doing good?

75
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 5: Man.

76
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: I saw that catch. Man, I'm very impressed. Man, that

77
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: was very impressive catch. I like how you had a

78
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 1: beat on it, you got a great jump off of it,

79
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: and you look like you had all the confidence in

80
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: the world.

81
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 5: I might have seen one.

82
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: More like that. It was Gary Matthews and Mike Trout,

83
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 1: they made something like that.

84
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 7: But man, you rolling your back on the wall was

85
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 7: very athletic, very impressive.

86
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 2: I appreciate it. I appreciate it. Thank you. I've seen

87
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 2: both those catches. Those are really cool.

88
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 5: Did you did you sleep that night?

89
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 2: I did a little later than I usually would, but

90
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: I did get some sleep. That's cool.

91
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 1: I know you probably got text messages from everybody in

92
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: baseball family members when I make those catches.

93
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 7: Man, my family would text.

94
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: Me, my my players would text me, and I'll be

95
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 1: up all night trying to answer those calls.

96
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 2: Absolutely, that's exactly how it would. I had to cut

97
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 2: myself off and get myself in time in the morning

98
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 2: to breathe. So it was crazy.

99
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 7: Man. I wanted to jump on and tell you what's

100
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 7: up before I let you go. You're gonna get in

101
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 7: a crash driving down the street. Bro ho over.

102
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 5: I don't want to.

103
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 4: I don't want to be responsible for Tory Hunter getting

104
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 4: in a crash all right while he's driving.

105
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: Definitely, this is this is probably illegal.

106
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 5: Everything you do.

107
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 1: Every time I get with you, man, you have me

108
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 1: do something illegal.

109
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 7: Man, I shouldn't hang with you too much.

110
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 5: That's right.

111
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 4: But here here's my question. Now, your nickname became spider Man,

112
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 4: right for all the catches you made? Do we got

113
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 4: a nickname for Denzel for the couple of catches that

114
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 4: he's Man, we gotta come up with it with a

115
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 4: nickname for him.

116
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 7: Elastic Man.

117
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 1: That the way the way he climbed up wash stretched

118
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 1: and caught that ball. Man, you gotta ask me some

119
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: rubber in yous.

120
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 5: Wow, that sounds bad, elasticity.

121
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:23,119
Speaker 3: What do you think that's funny? That's funny, Hey, Tory,

122
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 3: last last one before before you jump and get back

123
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 3: to the road. When you see a catch like that, now,

124
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 3: I mean, what do you think you know? Like when

125
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 3: you see the difficulty, there's not many humans on the

126
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 3: planet that can catch baseball's like that, so you know

127
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 3: you're one of the few that can really comment on

128
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 3: how ridiculous and difficult and how much time it takes

129
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 3: to like get reps in the league. Right, you need

130
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 3: the automatic athleticism that you have. But then on top

131
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 3: of that, I mean, it's not like you just woke

132
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 3: up and were able to catch Baseball's like that. You

133
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 3: played the game for a long time to get there.

134
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 7: I just don't think you can teach it.

135
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: You know, you're talking about Gary Matthews, Mike Trout, and

136
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 1: Denzel When they they make these catches, Man, it's hard

137
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: to replicate. Uh, these guys are such great athletes that

138
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: they can make something happen like that, And that's why

139
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: you rarely see it because it's not too many people

140
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: that can make those catches and be consistent with it. Man,

141
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 1: just what he did, just break the break on the ball,

142
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: the confidence, the close out to close that ball out.

143
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: Most people give up on that ball. But because his

144
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,360
Speaker 1: stubbornness and my stubbornness, and Trout and Gary Matthews, when

145
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: they make those plays, you're just stubborn.

146
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:34,559
Speaker 7: You want to keep going.

147
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: That's why I end up flipping over a wall in

148
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: Boston because I just can't let that thing go. It's

149
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: like someone's on the chalkboard and they're scraping the chalkboard

150
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 1: with the chalk and putting pressure on It makes that noise.

151
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 7: It makes your teeth grinch.

152
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,799
Speaker 1: So I definitely think that, you know, with Denzel watching

153
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: him play, That's why I said it was so impressive

154
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 1: because the close out he had of stubbornness of not

155
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: letting you have a hit, that's how That's what makes

156
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: you great, a great center fielder.

157
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 7: That's good, Tory Tor. First of all, you only wanted

158
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 7: to rob Ortiz.

00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 4: The way he did. He did things like that you did.

185
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 4: It was it was an every night occurrence. You're watching

186
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 4: the game, I'm like, Oh, that ball sit deep to loft.

187
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 4: Center Toys got it right, Center Toys got Oh, there's

188
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 4: a thirty football torial jump over that wall.

189
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 7: So that that was the thing.

190
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 4: And then when we saw he tweeted at you, I

191
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 4: had to reach out to him and he wanted to

192
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 4: come on and give you props.

193
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 7: So I thought that was pretty cool.

194
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 2: Absolutely, he's the legend, man. I really appreciate that. It's

195
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 2: really cool.

196
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 5: Who's your guy? Who's the guy? Who's the guy that

197
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 5: you watched growing up?

198
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 2: Jack and Bradley Jr. My favorite dependsive outfield that I

199
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 2: got to watch the growing up. He's one of the kinds.

200
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 5: Because of his arm or because I played with it.

201
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 2: Every everything, man, everything he may see to make a

202
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 2: play Baltimore like that. I think one of my favorite

203
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:46,839
Speaker 2: play from though. I always remember this because it's the

204
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 2: first time. I just thought he got around the ball

205
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: in right center throwing a third Usually like you take

206
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 2: her route and go like you know, like turn your

207
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 2: body and run around. He started like batpedaling mid game

208
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 2: to get behind this baseball to shooting the third. That

209
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 2: was only the coolest thing that seeing. So we tried

210
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 2: to emulate that to my game. But he's fun to watch,

211
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 2: for sure.

212
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 7: I could have called him next time.

213
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 4: We know, we know next time, next time you make

214
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 4: another catch, you will have JBJ on you on with you, Okay,

215
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 4: because I played with him too, so we can call him.

216
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 4: He's a good dude too. I didn't play with as

217
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 4: long as pervatorially, he's a good guy. He could play

218
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 4: some outfield too.

219
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 7: Wow.

220
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, hey, Denz, I've got one for because obviously

221
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 3: the defense is giving you a national name in the

222
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 3: sport in five seconds. I mean, you haven't been up

223
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 3: for long yet. Are you appreciative of the way that

224
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 3: we have metrics for defense? It's funny I'm saying this

225
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 3: as we made fun of the catch probability but for me,

226
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 3: for a long time, you'd watch someone you'd be like, damn,

227
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 3: they're so good, and there was nothing for a long

228
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 3: period of time. And it is by no means perfect,

229
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 3: but for example, outs above average generally will match up

230
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 3: the eye test to players over the course of a season,

231
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 3: so you immediately come up to the show and that

232
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 3: number in the first few weeks here is huge. Right,

233
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 3: you're among the league leaders in five seconds. Are you

234
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 3: appreciative of that because it helps for front offices to

235
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 3: value players like you where in the past it's eye

236
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 3: test and frankly, I think you know it can produce

237
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 3: some better defensive players in the league when there's a

238
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 3: stat to.

239
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 2: Back it up. Absolutely for sure. I think I got

240
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 2: my first taste of that this year, my first year

241
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 2: in first year and the big leads in it. Hey yeah,

242
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 2: first year in triple as, my first year having stack

243
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 2: casts and stuff. I feel like even since I got

244
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 2: the Triple A and then even to the big leagues now,

245
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 2: just like you said, having access to that data, I've

246
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 2: been able to make a lot of stage just seeing Okay,

247
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 2: my first jump for my first step, my jump could

248
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 2: have been better here, this could have been better there,

249
00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 2: just having access to those things, seeing yeah, where my

250
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 2: improvements can be made. I think it's really really cool.

251
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,839
Speaker 2: And this I think is super gratifying, just being able

252
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 2: to see how you stack up against the rest of

253
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 2: the players in the league. So I think there is

254
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: a huge benefit to them. Yeah, to these numbers and everything,

255
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 2: and yeah, of course they're not always gonna be perfect,

256
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,079
Speaker 2: but yeah, it's really cool seeing where uh I g

257
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 2: I said, again, we're a stack up against the rest

258
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 2: of the league.

259
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 6: So it's very fun to see You're gonna roam center

260
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 6: field for Team Canada and w b C and see

261
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 6: how you stack up against the world.

262
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 2: That'd be that'd be really cool. I'll be I'll be

263

Speaker 2: waiting on my phone public. I got to play in

298
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 4: a pickup game here.

299
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 2: You know. It's funny when I first got into baseball,

300
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 2: so we had like a family like Thanksgiving and we

301
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,959
Speaker 2: just went in the backyard we just grabbed like a tinfoil,

302
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 2: a bunch of tin foil, roll it up into a

303
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 2: ball like a broomstick, and we're just playing baseball out

304
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 2: in the backyard. After I think after reader either burn

305
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,480
Speaker 2: off burn off the food, or get us hung before

306
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,319
Speaker 2: the food. But that's like one of my first memories

307
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 2: of getting in some sort of baseball REPSD So that's

308
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 2: pretty special. That's wild.

309
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,160
