The entire broadcast from Monday 05/11/26 · Ron Verb

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: All right, so good afternoon. NewsRadio 570. Welcome, welcome, welcome,
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: boys and girls. It's Monday, May 11th already, almost the
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: middle of May. And so we are at 61 degrees.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Nice to be with you here. We've got a short
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: broadcast today. 530 we're going to call it quits today
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: because Guardians pregame on at 530. So short broadcast here
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: on NewsRadio 570. So keep that in mind. Let me
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: see what awaits me here today. They keep talking about
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: the agreements. Iran wants to make an agreement, but nothing happens.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: So I keep looking, keep reading that. Now I'm reading
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: different stuff. Now I'm reading where Trump is talking about
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: putting a pause on the federal gas tax. You hear
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: some people, and they asked DeWine if he would take
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: away the state gas tax. DeWine said no. The gas
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: tax is used to repair your roads and your federal
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: highways and your roads. I think some of it goes
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: to the state patrol, and.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Your gas tax is used for that kind of stuff.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: But anyway, now some of the conversation has shifted to
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: pausing the gas tax. We shall see what happens as
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: far as that's concerned. gas prices still are high in
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: my neck of the woods.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Still are high.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: About $ 4. 75 for the most part. Sometimes higher, $ 4.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: 89.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: It's in that ballpark.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: A little bit below $ 5 a gallon. But let's just
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: go with $ 4. 90 in that ballpark as an average in
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: my neck of the woods. So they're still really high.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: And before I start taking some calls, where was it?
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: I was just looking at... Look at this right here,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: the gentleman's headline. Gas prices to rise after Trump's Iran
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: proposal rejection. KALSHI, K-A-L-S-H-I, traders predict. All right, so there
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: you go.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: That's the headline.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Gasoline prices said to go higher after Trump's Iran proposal rejection.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Here's how much they can rise. All right, you want
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: to hear this, don't you? I want to keep you informed.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: So it says key points. President Donald Trump rejected Iran's
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: counterproposal to end the war, raising K-A-I-S-H-I.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: How would you say that? Because she eased.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: Traders' expectations for a surge in gasoline prices. The odds
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: of fuel prices surpassing $ 5 per gallon. The odds of
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: fuel prices surpassing $ 5 per gallon top 60% on Kashi
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: as of Monday afternoon.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: That's today.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Brett Crude Futures topped 104 a barrel on Monday.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: Hmm.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: Similarly, U.S.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: West Texas International Futures traded above $ 98, up 3%. Gasoline
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: prices are expected to go over $ 5 a gallon. I've
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: got to check in.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: What is this? There's smart people out there.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: They call it, according to, is it K-A-I-S-H-I?
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Traders.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: After President Trump on Sunday turned down Iran's counterproposal to
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: end the war, over the past 24 hours, cashier traders
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: ramped up their bets that gasoline prices would surpass $ 5.
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: 60 per gallon. And see, I'm like at half a tank.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: I've been waiting, anticipating him, trying to wait for him
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: to come down before I fill up.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Isn't it interesting? So maybe I better do that anyway.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: The spike in activity comes from after Trump said in
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: a true social post on Sunday that Iran's counterproposal to
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: end the war in the Middle East was totally unacceptable.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: The president later said on Monday that the U.S. ceasefire
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: with Iran was on massive life supports. Oil prices jumped
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: today with West Texas intermediate futures jumping nearly 3%. While
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Brent crude futures advanced close to 3%. See, I'm giving
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: you the latest stuff. Nationally, the average gasoline price per
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: gallon rose by 6 cents from a week ago to $ 4.
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: 52.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: This is nationally because we're higher than that here. According
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: to AAA, it has risen about 38 cents from a
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: month ago and has gained about $ 1. 38 from a year back.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Trump also said today that he would reduce the federal
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: gasoline tax. garnering support from congressional Republicans. This came after
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: he told CBS News in an interview that he wanted
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: to suspend the levy for a period of time. I
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: think it's a great idea, the president told CBS. Yep,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: we're going to take off the gas tax for a
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: period of time, and when gas goes down, we'll face
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: it back in. What's the federal gas tax? I think
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: it's only like 20 cents. I'll check on that for you.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: But the key takeaway here, as I start today's broadcast...
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: So these traders ramped up their bets that gasoline prices
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: would surpass $ 5.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: 60 a gallon.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you, if that's the case, I'm just telling
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: you right now, that is a game changer for the
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Republicans and for the Trump administration. Period.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: End of story.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: It will 100% be an absolute game changer. And not
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: in a good direction. Comments, 330-729-9977. 330-729-9977. I've got to
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: tell you a true story. A guy was telling me
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: over the weekends. This is news you can use. This
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: has nothing to do with gas prices or anything.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: I just put it out there again. I once talked
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: about on the air.
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: How..
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Wait a second. Let me grab it right here. All right,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: a second. See this?
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Do you see this? It's right in my pocket. In
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: my pocket, in my briefcase. My wife makes me carry these.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Bare chewable aspirin regimen. 81 milligrams. So bare chewable aspirin
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: is 81 milligrams. Then she writes on here, chew for
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Tablets with chest pain. You know, so if you have
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: chest pain. So anyway, I talked about this once on here.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: And this guy was telling me, I talked about this
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: once on here. I said, my wife has these little
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: containers that's in my briefcase, in my pocket, on the
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: nightstands and all that kind of stuff where, you know,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: it's just a hard issues don't really run in our family.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: But as you get older, you never know.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: But needless to say, like if you have chest pain,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: you know, like chest pain, you're supposed to chew four
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: of these. Don't swallow them. Chew them as you chew
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: them under your tongue. And that's supposed to help keep
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: you alive, basically, until you get to the emergency room.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: And so I tell that story because, you know, I
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: keep them here in my pocket and all that kind
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: of stuff. And so a guy told me over the weekend,
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: he said, hey, you know, I remember when he told
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that story. And he said he had a heart attack.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: And he remembered from that story that he had chewable
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: baby aspirin. And when he was having one, he chewed
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: them and went right to the emergency room. And it's
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: really saved his life.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: How about that?
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: The words and wisdom of Lisa verb, whereas she, which
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: was pretty cool. I thought, you know, which is pretty cool.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: So that's, so I thought, well, I should mention that again.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Certainly if you're older, you should always be carrying some
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: baby aspirin. So if you ever have a heart attack
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: and you'll know if you have one in chest pain
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: that you're, You get the baby aspirin and you chew
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: a bowl and you chew four of them right away
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: while you call 911. And hopefully that will keep you going.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Because usually when they get there, they're going to make
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: you chew some too. But you want to make sure.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: But anyway, I thought that was interesting. Very interesting. So
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: I thought I wanted to pass that along to you
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: as well.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: All right. You're on the air.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: I'm doing okay. When I'm not busy broadcasting, I'm saving lives,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: giving you advice.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: What's really funny, I don't know if you have to
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: listen to yourself. The opening right there, you said, it
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: was just funny. I know what you meant, but you said,
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: I keep my aspirins in my briefcase in my pocket.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: And I'm sitting here and I go, how big is
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: your briefcase?
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: No, I mean, I carry some. I carry some in
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: my briefcase. I carry some in my pockets. I have
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: them on a nightstand. You know, it's not like a... Listen,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: I'll open it up and look right now. See, they're
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: right in there.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: There's more... No. Listen here, you smart aleck.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: But anyway, yeah, things are, you know, with the gas
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: and everything, I just paid, I pumped for, it was
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: $ 4. 70 a gallon, and I gave the rights to my son,
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: to the owner of the gas, if you would let
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: me have an extra five gallons. So when my son
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: gets to the right age, he's going to have to
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: work for him for a little bit to work off
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: the gas. gas price, you know what I mean, which
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: is so expensive.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but it's a..
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: I've got to myself, well, if I drive around for
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: a while, maybe I'll come across an unlucky possum. And
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: I can, you know, brew them.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: And there'll be dinner.
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: Not too much damage. I get it home before it goes.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm here. I'm listening to you, Ramblin'.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: I'm just thinking, I mean, I'm just reading it right
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: here today, and it's like, So for the most part,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: we're at around $ 4.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: 89, let's say, in that ballpark.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Just slightly below $ 5 a gallon. And I keep hearing
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: this stuff on Fox. Oh, Iran wants to make a deal.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Iran wants to make a deal. And so it looks like.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: But is this a game show?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: You want to make a deal?
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, let's make a deal. What is it.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: Bob Barker and stuff? I don't understand this. What deal
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: are they looking for?
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Apparently not the one we're offering.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: Do we want a kitchen set along with it? Or
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: do we want to get a vacation to Mexico? I
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: don't understand because that's what a deal is. And then
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: they say they don't like the deal. My idea is
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: if you're even going to sit down and talk about
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: a deal, you're going to have to have three quarters
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: on each side agreeing to whatever the other ones are saying.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: You understand what I'm saying? You can't just go in
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: there and go, I'll offer you this, and they're going, no,
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: I'll offer you that. This doesn't sound right. So I
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: agree with you that we should just make a deal.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: And it's almost jargon that Mr.
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: Trump uses.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: With his business, and I'm not blaming anything. I'm saying
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: that's how his life is. That's how he verbalizes things.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: I don't understand.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Well, it seems to me, listen, here's my analysis. I mean,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: do I think we have him on the ropes? Well,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: you would think so. I mean, with all the bobbing
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: that took place and with the blockade and without their
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: economy doing much good. But it doesn't seem like that...
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know how to read it. It would seem
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: like you got them up against the wall, and that
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: they would want a deal so they can get back
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: to selling oil and getting money coming in and all
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: this kind of stuff. But apparently there's a number of
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: folks in Iran that say– They're not interested.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: If they want to make a deal, why isn't there
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: a deal? That's what I'm saying.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: It's almost like you use the reference to sports. You know,
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: if I'm going to want a contract for five years
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: where I'm going to make this amount of money each
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: year and make a curb progress... I'll get, uh, other benefits.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: If I throw for 5,000 yards, I get this amount
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: of money, uh, benefit or more extra money, something like that.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: But you're going to have that already as an understood
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: type of thing. And I, and I just don't, uh,
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: it bothers me because it's a, um, we're obviously not
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: getting anywhere. And, uh, it's, I don't understand.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: I tell you what, all you need to understand is
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: what this line is. I'm reading from CNBC over the
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: past 24 hours. cashier traders ramped up their bets that
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: gasoline prices would surpass 560 per gallon.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know that that means there's a war.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: It just means that no agreement is being reached and
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the price of oil continues to go up.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: 560, I mean, again, just think about it, Ron.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: That's ridiculous.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: Where does it stop?
• 14:15
  Speaker 6: Where are we going.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: To continue to say, okay, we're paying $ 9 an hour,
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: $ 9 a gallon. If that happens, do we go, we'll
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: go to 11 and then there'll be no more? Are
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: we going to go to..
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't jump that.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: I think over 560 is pretty ridiculous. I don't need
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: to go to 9, but I mean, when I'm reading this..
• 14:34
  Speaker 7: I don't want to either.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying that are we going to become that
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: complacent or that we become... that it doesn't bother us
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: that we become immune or indifferent to it, that it's
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: going to go up.
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: It goes up extra dollar. And I was, you know,
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: what other thing on public news calls him, will you
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: please remind.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: Him he was wrong.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: Number Friday, he said, Oh, we're getting, you didn't train.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: You didn't trust Trump. And he said, well, let's see
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: what happened on Monday. Here comes Monday. And look what happened.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: Thank you. It's a JJ, the liberal. Thank you. Back
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: with more of your calls in just a minute.
• 15:11
  Speaker 8: Youngstown's news, weather, and talk station, 570-WKBN.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: Ron Verb, and you're on the air.
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: Hey, Ron, this is going to be my most depressing
• 15:24
  Speaker 5: call ever.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: Well, now, hang on. Do you know what? I want
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: to ask you before you get depressed to live in
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: hell out of me, okay? Do you mind? Cashy. What
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: is this cashy? Is that a betting place or something?
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to hear. Yeah, I believe that's a prediction market. Yeah,
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: Kashi predicts markets for trading the future. Okay, so I
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: don't know if I'm pronouncing it right. K-A-I-S-H-I.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Kashi is a registered exchange and prediction market where you
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: can trade on the outcome of real-world events, buy and
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: sell event contracts. Okay, so that's where you bet on stuff, right?
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: So they're saying here, Let me go back to CNBC.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: So let's see. So their betting markets is cashy traders
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: ramped up their bets that gasoline prices would surpass $ 5. 60
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: per gallon.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: What do you make of that?
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: I believe it's based in Japan. That's why it's got
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: a weird name.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: So now I'm looking at it. Trading volume on oil
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: and gas prices will hit about $ 5. 60 in the last
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: 24 hours.
• 16:31
  Speaker 9: Surpassed.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Let's see.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know how to even read this stuff to
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: make sense. Trading volume in the last 24 hours. So
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: the bulk of it went to 560. I guess that's
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: basically just speculators, right?
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's speculators betting on the future price of oil
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: and gas.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: How accurate do you think that is, Frank?
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: Well, unless they're oil... Market analyst, I wouldn't put a
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: lot of stock into it.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: So what do you make of it? I mean, give
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: me a second. I know you wanted to..
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: Oil was selling almost $ 99 a barrel earlier today when
• 17:22
  Speaker 5: I checked. And not long ago, it was down to
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: $ 90 a barrel. So going from $ 90 to almost $ 99
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: a barrel is a huge... price increase in a short
• 17:36
  Speaker 5: amount of time.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: Is that an increase or a drop?
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Are you saying it went from $ 90 to $ 99, or
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: was it $ 99 and dropped to $ 90?
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: No, it was $ 90 a few days ago. Now it's
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: up to almost $ 99 a barrel when I checked a
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: couple hours ago.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: And basically, from what I'm reading... It's Fort Lauderdale Frank,
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: financial guru.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: So basically what I'm reading on CNBC says that it's
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: because the deal was, there isn't a deal, basically. That's
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: why oil prices are going up and why they say
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: gas prices could go up.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: Would you agree with that?
• 18:12
  Speaker 7: Yes, I would.
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: I can't imagine. It's hard to fathom.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Even when you see like $ 4. 99, I mean $ 5 a gallon,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: I'm just talking in my neck of the woods. I
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: realize in other places it's different because they talk about, well,
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: it's $ 4. 50 in these places and that kind of stuff.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: But it's hard to imagine if you would see the
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: gas price at $ 5. 60 a gallon. Stand by, back with
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Fort Lauderdale Frank and some insight from him. And why
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: does he say he's going to depress me? I'm very
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: troubled by that. I want to find out what that is.
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: News Radio 570. WKV's report is sponsored by Taking a
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Walk Podcast. All right, back to it. 335 in the afternoon.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: News Radio 570. So, as things stand right now, Fort Lauderdale, Frank,
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: economically speaking, things don't look so good as far as
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: oil futures and the cost of a gallon of gas.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Would that be a fair statement?
• 19:10
  Speaker 10: Yes, I was..
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: Well uh... listening to an economist uh... friday that said
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: that warren buffett's portfolio is no longer geared for a
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: global economic recession his portfolio is now geared to withstand
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: a great global economic depression possibly the worst oppression in
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: history and A Republican talking point is, AI will bail
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: us out. That's in vogue now. I think that is unlikely.
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: And at some point, the trillions of dollars that the
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: MAG-7 is pouring into AI, they're going to have to
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: stop calculating their expected return on capital and start realizing
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: we better be concerned with a return of our capital
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: instead of pissing it down AI rabbit holes. And Buffett
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: also is called Bitcoin rat poison. He has no faith
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: in Bitcoin whatsoever.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: First of all, back up for one second. Here's what
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: people don't understand, and maybe you do. And this is
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: for everybody that's listening. And I'm glad you brought this
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: up as well. The things that I'm reading when it
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: comes to AI... And, folks, I'm just here for all
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: of you to understand a lot of people don't follow this,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: particularly if you're older. Artificial intelligence is the amount of
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: jobs that it will replace. In other words, eliminate is
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: the word I want.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: Right, Frank?
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: They're talking within three years. So they're talking from now
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: to within three years. So between 2026 and 2029.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: That it could be.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: 50%, Frank, 50% of white-collar jobs could very easily be
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: eliminated by AI. So then my question would be, well,
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: what are all those people supposed to do? I mean,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: that's a huge amount of people who lose their jobs.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: And we're a consumer-based economy. If they don't have a job,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: then they're not going to be hiring a plumber to
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: redo the bathroom.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Comment, please.
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: Well, they're going to have to depend on charity, private charity. But,
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: you know, Ronnie, AI is at ground zero of a
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: gigantic financial bubble similar to the dot-com bubble from 2001
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: to 2010, in which NASDAQ lost 90% of its value.
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: I wouldn't be surprised if any of these AI companies
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: go bankrupt. and that the new Fed chairman will declare
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: them too big to fail and bail them out with
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: trillions of dollars of taxpayer money. And I don't envy
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: the new Fed chairman. He's going to be between a
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: rock and a hard place. His only two options are
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: to hyperinflate or to pursue a responsible monetary policy and
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: watch both the government and private sector collapse upon itself
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: in a mountain of debt. Now, from a political point
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: of view, monetizing the debt is the path of least resistance.
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: But now the Chinese banks are forbidden to buy our
• 22:41
  Speaker 5: government debt. And I say to the Republican and Democrat
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: voters who still remain that your big, beautiful government will
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: probably force Americans who own private pensions, 401ks, and IRAs
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: to buy government debt against their will. I wouldn't be
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: surprised if Congress says, Ron, you and me and everybody
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: else with 401k, 20% of your 401k has to be
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: in government debt. And, you know..
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Then that takes away your freedom of investing because it
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: depends what the return is on that. I mean, here's
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: my concern. And I bounce this off of you and
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: I would call this, just be patient with me because
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm picking his brain. I understand many of you
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: people aren't paying attention to this kind of stuff. And
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: I get it. And I understand a lot of you
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: don't read the financial stuff. So I'm just trying to
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: give you some information that's out there that I want
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: you to be aware of. That's all I'm saying. It
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: could be right, could be wrong. As I say, I'm
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: not a cheerleader for Trump or for any politician.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: But I am getting tired of Iran wants a deal.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Iran wants a deal. A deal's imminent. A deal's imminent.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: I've been hearing this on Fox News for the longest
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: period of time. And then we see, based on what
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: took place this weekend, well, Iran isn't that desperate to
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: have a deal because they haven't agreed to this one, apparently.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: So they keep telling me how desperate they are and
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: how they want a deal. Well, they're not making a deal.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: So I'm sitting back and I'm saying, OK. Every time
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: that happens, I know oil prices go up, and that
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: can potentially mean your gas prices go up. Maybe I'm
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: the only guy out there. I think $ 5 a gallon
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: is ridiculous. I think it's absolutely ridiculous, and I think
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: economically it hurts a lot of you. I mean, when
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: you fill up your vehicle and it's $ 100 or.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: $ 80, it's a lot of money to fill it up.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: So the thought or the conversation is, that I don't
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: care who the president is, the gas prices could go
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: above $ 5 is, I just think it's, if that's the case,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Trump's presidency isn't going to be on life support as
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: well as the midterms. The American people aren't going to
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: sit back, the vast majority of them, and say, oh,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: I'm all in for paying $ 5 or $ 5. 60 a gallon
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: because I'm concerned about Iran. I don't believe that for
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: a minute.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: Do you, Frank?
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: I don't believe it either, Ron. And, Ron, the reason
• 25:24
  Speaker 5: why I believe in supply-side economics, and I've been pre-market
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: capitalism all my life, the pre-market is a self-adjusting mechanism. Like,
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: what's happening right now? When you have high oil and
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: high gas prices, if we had a true pre-market and
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: no government interference, Investment capital would be flowing out of
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: oil and gas companies right now and flowing into alternative
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: energy at lower prices. We would be weaning ourselves off
• 26:07
  Speaker 5: of oil companies. and natural gas.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Well, we're not.
• 26:12
  Speaker 11: We're not.
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: We're going more into natural gas than ever for electric production,
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: for our power plants, more than ever. I've argued for
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: the longest period of time with all of these people.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: You want diversity in creating electricity. You want hydro, which
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: is water. You want coal. You want natural gas. And
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: you want nuclear. Your four main dependable ones that you
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: want You want diversity there, but we're getting... I give
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: Trump credits that he stopped ripping down all these coal plants,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: but unfortunately under Obama and Biden, they ripped a bunch
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: of them down without anything to replace them.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: The government's intervention..
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: In the Green New Deal nonsense has created this energy
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: problem in addition to AI. But I mean, they created
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: a lot of this problem by saying, okay, we're green energy.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: You can't have a coal, regulating coal plants out of
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: business and insisting they be torn down with nothing to
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: replace them and the amount of power that they produce.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: This is ridiculous. So now we're building more power plants,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: but they're all based on natural gas. Well, what do
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: you think is going to happen to the price of
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: natural gas when that much consumption is being used for power?
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, the supply and demand.
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: And in the free market economy, let's take a look
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: at China and some other countries that have at least
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: a semblance of a free market. Investment capitals flowing out
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: of their oil and natural gas industries into clean energy industries.
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: It's not going into windmills. It's going into productive, clean
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: energy like solar. But that is not happening in this country.
• 28:03
  Speaker 5: We're going to fall farther and farther behind in the race. And,
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: you know, China, let me say something about China.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: Well, hang on a minute.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: I don't buy into that in China. China's built more
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: coal plants than anybody. That's a reality.
• 28:19
  Speaker 5: Well, that's the reality, but they're also investing in a
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: lot of..
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: Right, but they're buying all our coal. China has built
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: more coal plants lately. China is one of the biggest
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: polluters on the planet. They have, excuse me, they build
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: all kinds of coal plants and continue to build them.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: And they're buying a lot of coal from this country.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: And they want cheap, dependable energy in China. They're not
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: environmentalists over there. They're not worried about solar and this stuff.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: They're doing exactly the opposite. And that's what makes it
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: hard to compete against them, because the lunatics with the
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: green energy here in this country, they want the California model,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: which is windmills and solar panels, which don't produce nearly
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: as much energy, which is a lot more expensive energy
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: to produce and less dependable. I mean, it's ridiculous. I
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: want everybody out there... You've got to give me an aye-aye, Captain,
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: on this. We've got an energy problem because of Obama, Biden, Kerry,
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton, the war on coal, damn it. I realize
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: people don't want to hear it.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: If you're a.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: Democrat, you created this problem because Obama and these folks
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: regulated coal plants out of business. Let's make the regulation
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: so stern they couldn't afford to stay in business. And
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: then let's pass laws that you've got to tear that
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: coal plant down, like Samanis in Ohio, or the one
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: in our area, where a perfectly good coal plant had
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: to be torn down because of the green energy stuff. Well,
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: as much as we can bitch about Trump, Trump has
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: stopped that from happening. Trump has said that we no
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: longer are going to allow tearing down these coal plants
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: under this Obama scheme because nothing was there to replace
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: the energy they created. Supply and demand, that helped raise
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: energy prices because of the Democrats, just as the demand
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: from AI is creating some of it.
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: Now, Ron, let me interrupt you a second. Regardless of
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: anybody's opinion on energy policy, investment capital is pouring into China.
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: I don't care. I hate to say it. I don't care.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: It's communist China. They're an enemy to the United States.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Things are owned by the country. I mean, I have
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: zero respect for China. I'm not a fan of China.
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: And we shall see what happens. It even appears China
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: is aiding Iran in some of the efforts that we
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: have to try to end this particular situation.
• 30:57
  Speaker 5: As far as inflation, Ron, let me tell you this.
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: It's not only Warren Buffett. It's all the smartest investors
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: in the world. Jamie Dimon, 20% of his portfolio in gold.
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: Bank of America, a lot of their portfolio in gold.
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: Stanley Druckenmiller, he said that gold is the future. You
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: got a CIO, chief investment officer at another big bank said,
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: we had 40% of our portfolio in treasuries. We're cutting
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: that in half. We just sold 20% of our treasuries,
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: and we're using it all to buy gold.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: The bottom line is this, and then I'll let you
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: depress me, but the bottom line is this. For everybody
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: out there listening and people get frustrated with you, listen,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: the reality is until there's some type of agreement here
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: with the situation in Iran, the economy is going to
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: be in a difficult situation because of uncertainty and the
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: price of oil. And we are an oil-based economy. And
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: it's just going to go back and forth. Oh, there
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: could be a deal. Oil prices go down. Well, the
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: deal's off. Oil prices go back up. But in the meantime,
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: you're still stuck paying $ 4. 80 a gallon or more and
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: having that hurt. And then when you see AI, and
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: once again, the people that know AI are saying they're
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: underselling it, not overselling it. They're underselling AI. And how
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: many jobs? They replaced, what, 9,000, 10,000 jobs at Meta? Facebook,
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: if you will, with AI. Well, that's a huge number
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: of people losing their jobs. That's just the beginning. So
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: the country's got some serious issues ahead.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: Now, forget all of that.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: What were you going to depress me with, or was
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: that what you were going to depress me with, what
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: you said?
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: Well, another thing I was going to depress you with
• 32:51
  Speaker 5: is the reason why some of the best investment minds
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: in the world are buying gold is because They feel
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: just like me. Even if this war ends today.
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: We.
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: Have stagflation. Stagflation is the highest inflation to cure. So
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: regardless of whether the Straits of Hormuz opens and we
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: stop the war and we stop spending tens of billions
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: of dollars on this war, we're spending $ 1 billion a day.
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: on the Iranian war.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: And we can't afford it.
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, inflation, hold on to your seats, because inflation is
• 33:41
  Speaker 5: going to persist for a long time. That's why they're
• 33:45
  Speaker 5: all buying gold and silver and commodities.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: I hope you're wrong. I've got to move along. I
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: appreciate it. Thank you, Fort Lauderdale. Frank, you're on the air.
• 33:58
  Speaker 6: Let me depress you a little bit more.
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 34:00
  Speaker 6: Okay. Woody at the Firehounds Winery.
• 34:05
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 34:06
  Speaker 6: He died.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Did he?
• 34:09
  Speaker 6: He died on Friday. Yeah, he's younger than me. He
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: died on Friday, but they held it a secret until
• 34:17
  Speaker 6: after Mother's Day.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: How did you find out?
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: I got my way, son. I have my ways.
• 34:28
  Speaker 12: Really?
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, I had not heard that.
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he died. Well, I think it was Friday or Saturday.
• 34:36
  Speaker 6: But they didn't want to tell nobody until after Mother's
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: Day that they didn't want to get everybody depressed. All
• 34:44
  Speaker 6: because of tourism.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: He was a hell of a guy. I mean, I
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: spent a lot of time obviously doing commercials with him
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: and doing some remote broadcasts from up at Old Firehouse.
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry to hear that.
• 34:59
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he died. Now, we're screwed on this oil deal.
• 35:04
  Speaker 6: Trump got us so far down. And I don't want
• 35:07
  Speaker 6: to hear it no more about the Democrats because you
• 35:10
  Speaker 6: were part of that plan.
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: What do you mean? So wait a minute, wait a minute,
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: wait a minute. Stand by. Let me do my commercials.
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: Let me do my commercials. I'll come back to you.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: Hang on.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: It sounds like an irate caller standing by. Ron Verb,
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: NewsRadio 570 WKBN 352 at 62 degrees. All right, go.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: Ahead with what you were going to say, Irie Caller.
• 35:34
  Speaker 13: Huh?
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: Go ahead with what you were saying.
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: Oh, just about you and your buddy there being Democrats,
• 35:41
  Speaker 6: you know, voting for Obama and all that. We tried
• 35:45
  Speaker 6: to tell you, but you wouldn't listen. Hey, now, when
• 35:50
  Speaker 6: these politicians get hired on, is their pay private or
• 35:56
  Speaker 6: is it public?
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: No, it's public, their pay.
• 36:00
  Speaker 6: Well, somebody better come up here and tell our local
• 36:03
  Speaker 6: newspaper because they said that I'm nosy because Metro Parts
• 36:09
  Speaker 6: hired a bird watcher. A bird watcher. But it didn't
• 36:19
  Speaker 6: have no pay on there. And I called the reporter
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: and did I get screamed at? Because I wanted to know,
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: they said I was nosy.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: Well, so what? You want to know what they paid
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: for the birdwatcher?
• 36:33
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't care if you're nosy or not. That
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: should be, I mean, it is.
• 36:37
  Speaker 6: I know. That's a government worker.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it should be public record.
• 36:41
  Speaker 6: Well, the newspaper says no.
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: Based on what?
• 36:45
  Speaker 6: This is Dave Thomas territory.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: I'll ask, I'll have to ask Dave Thomas.
• 36:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that don't make no sense. I'm going to commissioners
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: meeting this week or next week.
• 37:00
  Speaker 10: I forget.
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: But I'm going. And I want some answers.
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: In other words, what are we paying for the bird
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: watcher for the Metro Parks in Ashtabula?
• 37:10
  Speaker 6: Well, we know what we're paying the head honcho. He's
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: getting almost $ 180, 000 or so just to put a park
• 37:15
  Speaker 6: in a field. you know, for horses.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: All right. All right. Good hearing you.
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: Other good news?
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: Want me to tell you some more?
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, quickly.
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: I'm dying.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: Really?
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I stopped all my treatment.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: Stand by. Stand by. Hang in there. I want to
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: talk to you after the news break.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: Back in a minute. News Radio 570 WKBN and Ron Verbstate.
• 37:48
  Speaker 14: From ABC News, I'm Michelle Franzen. Health officials say 17
• 37:52
  Speaker 14: Americans and one British national living in the U.S. are
• 37:54
  Speaker 14: now in quarantine at medical facilities in Nebraska and Georgia.
• 37:58
  Speaker 14: The majority in Omaha. ABC's Steve Osensami says two patients
• 38:02
  Speaker 14: are at Emory Hospital in Atlanta.
• 38:04
  Speaker 15: In a statement from Emory Hospital, they say that they're
• 38:07
  Speaker 15: working in coordination with local, state, and federal partners, that
• 38:11
  Speaker 15: they've received two passengers here from the cruise ship following
• 38:14
  Speaker 15: the outbreak. One is symptomatic.
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: And is receiving.
• 38:18
  Speaker 15: Care in Emory's biocontainment unit, and one is asymptomatic currently,
• 38:24
  Speaker 15: identified as a close contact, and is undergoing evaluation and monitoring.
• 38:29
  Speaker 14: President Trump rejecting Iran's response to a ceasefire memo.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: The U.S.
• 38:33
  Speaker 14: And Iran remain stalled over reopening the Strait of Hormuz
• 38:37
  Speaker 14: and also Iran's nuclear ambitions. ABC's Karen Travers has more.
• 38:40
  Speaker 16: The big sticking point for weeks, for months now, of course,
• 38:43
  Speaker 16: has been Iran's nuclear program and their nuclear ambitions. The
• 38:47
  Speaker 16: president has been very clear. He wants the United States
• 38:49
  Speaker 16: to get Iran's enriched uranium. He said that last week.
• 38:52
  Speaker 16: We're going to get it. That has been a red
• 38:55
  Speaker 16: line for Iran. But it's not clear if that was
• 38:57
  Speaker 16: something specific they put back in this. But again, it's
• 39:00
  Speaker 16: been a sticking point for some time.
• 39:02
  Speaker 14: A non-profit conservation group has launched a legal battle to
• 39:05
  Speaker 14: try to stop the repainting of the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool.
• 39:09
  Speaker 17: In a lawsuit filed Monday, a non-profit called the Cultural
• 39:12
  Speaker 17: Landscape Foundation argued that Trump needs approval from Congress to
• 39:16
  Speaker 17: alter the Lincoln Memorial because it's a historical landmark. Trump
• 39:19
  Speaker 17: has defended his attempt to repaint the reflecting pool in
• 39:22
  Speaker 17: a shade of blue called American Flag Blue.
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: And renovate the site. And over the.
• 39:27
  Speaker 18: Years as a developer, I've probably built more than a
• 39:30
  Speaker 18: swimming pools.
• 39:31
  Speaker 17: The nonprofit is asking a judge to halt the renovations
• 39:34
  Speaker 17: until the Trump administration gets congressional approval.
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: Peter Haralambous, ABC News.
• 39:38
  Speaker 14: On Wall Street today, stocks ending higher led by tech shares.
• 39:42
  Speaker 14: You're listening to ABC News.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: Alright, back to it.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: 406 News Radio 570.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: Monday, May 11th. Ron Verb from the Kingdom of Mahoning.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: I am.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: I am. 60 degrees right now, so let me go
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: back up to..
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: So you're dying.
• 40:04
  Speaker 12: Yeah.
• 40:05
  Speaker 6: Give me a year or two.
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: Okay, now..
• 40:09
  Speaker 6: I don't know. When they were down there with the liver, remember?
• 40:14
  Speaker 6: With the radiation and all that.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: What stage cancer do you have?
• 40:18
  Speaker 6: I have lung cancer.
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: Just pause for a second. Where did this start, with
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: lung cancer or liver cancer?
• 40:25
  Speaker 10: Liver.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: All right, so in your liver, it spread to your lungs?
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: No.
• 40:33
  Speaker 6: They don't think so.
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: Where's your cancer at? Just your liver?
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: No, now I got it on my lungs. My left lung.
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: All right. But, I mean, do you continue to smoke?
• 40:49
  Speaker 6: Well, yeah, might as well now.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: And both marijuana and taxes for the state highway would
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: throw for their pension fund. Just sit tight. You're still
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: smoking dope and cigarettes, correct?
• 41:04
  Speaker 5: Correct.
• 41:06
  Speaker 6: Not too much dopamine lately. I mean, my lungs can't
• 41:09
  Speaker 6: handle it.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: But you've smoked. So you're telling me the cancer started
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: in your liver, not in your lung?
• 41:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it started in the liver.
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: At what stage are you?
• 41:22
  Speaker 6: You know, I never asked them, and I don't want
• 41:24
  Speaker 6: to know. I walked away from Meadville. When I started
• 41:32
  Speaker 6: getting really sick and that, and I just, I walked away.
• 41:35
  Speaker 6: They kept calling me and everything. I just walked away.
• 41:39
  Speaker 6: Because when I die, I don't really want to be
• 41:43
  Speaker 6: sick like that. I don't know if I'd rather be
• 41:47
  Speaker 6: sick another way, but, you know, I'm going to, no.
• 41:51
  Speaker 6: They're not giving my body any more of that poison.
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: What were they doing to you?
• 41:58
  Speaker 6: What do you mean? They were giving me chemo.
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: Did you get radiation or just chemo?
• 42:03
  Speaker 6: I had three sessions. I had three sessions of chemo
• 42:07
  Speaker 6: and one radiation. The radiation was on the liver.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: And was it, it made you sick?
• 42:15
  Speaker 10: Oh, yeah.
• 42:17
  Speaker 6: Yeah. In the worst way. I haven't had chemo in
• 42:23
  Speaker 6: probably three, about four weeks. And I'm still sick.
• 42:28
  Speaker 15: No.
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: So you just stopped going? Yes. Yes.
• 42:39
  Speaker 10: That was it.
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: But you still don't feel good?
• 42:44
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah. I don't feel good. In the morning, I
• 42:48
  Speaker 6: usually don't feel good. But the rest of the afternoon,
• 42:52
  Speaker 6: it's been too bad. I haven't been doing nothing. You
• 42:55
  Speaker 6: can't go nowhere. You guys got the... Trump's got the
• 42:58
  Speaker 6: gas prices so high, he ought to just keep pounding
• 43:02
  Speaker 6: them people. Pound them. Pound them right into the ground.
• 43:06
  Speaker 6: What the hell are we waiting for?
• 43:08
  Speaker 2: Well, it seems like he's done a lot of that,
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: and it hasn't really worked out.
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: And if you do more of it, I don't know.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Time will tell. We shall see. So how long do
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: you think you have?
• 43:21
  Speaker 6: Me? I don't.
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: Know.
• 43:24
  Speaker 6: Hopefully a year. or well, to tell you the truth,
• 43:29
  Speaker 6: I always wanted to be, I always want, if I
• 43:33
  Speaker 6: make it to 69, I'll be lucky. Wow. I'll be
• 43:38
  Speaker 6: real lucky. Well, I found a nice place to stay
• 43:44
  Speaker 6: up here in, uh, in Jefferson, Ohio. And, uh, part
• 43:51
  Speaker 6: of Ashtonville County. Might as well stay up here where
• 43:53
  Speaker 6: I got the stuff at from, uh.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: Did you ever go back and talk to your doctor
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: to say, where does it go from here if I
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: stop everything?
• 44:03
  Speaker 5: No. No more.
• 44:07
  Speaker 6: Next call will be hospice. I'll call hospice.
• 44:12
  Speaker 19: Mm-hmm.
• 44:13
  Speaker 6: I was supposed to call in the day, and I forgot.
• 44:15
  Speaker 6: I ended up holding online with you for an hour
• 44:19
  Speaker 6: or so, you know.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: Well, when you call me, it's like calling hospice.
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 44:28
  Speaker 6: And that little pill is called a nitro.
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: No, it's like calling hospice.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: You know what they say? They treat you real good
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: if it wasn't for the reason you were there. Well, geez.
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: Well, keep me in the loop. Keep me informed.
• 44:50
  Speaker 6: I will.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: All right, man.
• 44:52
  Speaker 6: Have a good one.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: Godspeed. News Radio 570 WKBN, you're on the air.
• 44:58
  Speaker 10: It's unfortunate. I hate to hear news like that. I
• 45:00
  Speaker 10: hate to see somebody know they're going to die and
• 45:03
  Speaker 10: have to deal with that. They're all going to die eventually,
• 45:06
  Speaker 10: I guess.
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: And also to say, listen, I'm not going to continue
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: on with these treatments. They're making me so sick it's
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: not worth it.
• 45:13
  Speaker 10: Well, and I think your wife probably sees that, I'm sure.
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: Yes, she does.
• 45:17
  Speaker 10: Sometimes the cures or the treatments were way worse than
• 45:22
  Speaker 10: the disease, unfortunately.
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: Yes, unfortunately, she does see it. I mean, sometimes.
• 45:29
  Speaker 10: Yeah, you see somebody like Ben, if you saw that
• 45:33
  Speaker 10: 60 Minutes interview a couple weeks ago with Ben Sass,
• 45:36
  Speaker 10: he's dying of pancreatic cancer, and they're using that new
• 45:41
  Speaker 10: drug that somehow I think it does something with the
• 45:45
  Speaker 10: tumor to get it to stop replicating as quickly. But
• 45:49
  Speaker 10: if you looked at his face, it looked like somebody
• 45:50
  Speaker 10: took a blowtorch to his face. But if it gives
• 45:53
  Speaker 10: you more months and he's got young kids, I guess
• 45:55
  Speaker 10: that's what.
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: You have to do. I tell you, I'm really intrigued
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: by the– there's two drugs that– oddly enough, one of
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: them is ivermectin.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: And what's the other one? It starts with an M,
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: Membrosol or something like that that some people are trying
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: that seems to have an effect on cancer.
• 46:21
  Speaker 2: Have you seen that?
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: No.
• 46:24
  Speaker 10: We do almost, you know, retail and pharmacy, we don't
• 46:27
  Speaker 10: do any cancer. That's all handled by most of the
• 46:30
  Speaker 10: cancer doctors handle list. If we see really nothing, if
• 46:34
  Speaker 10: we see anything, it's palliative care, you know, pain pills,
• 46:36
  Speaker 10: things like that to help treat pain. But as far
• 46:39
  Speaker 10: as chemo, retail pharmacy doesn't deal with.
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: That at all.
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's ivermectin and mendazole. They're both anti-parasitic medications that when...
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: combined significantly increase efficiency against soil transmitted, blah, blah, blah,
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: goes on for this. But it has to do with
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: parasitic infections. And there are people that are actually.
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: They're exploring the oncology potentials of those two. Let me see.
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm very intrigued by it because they're both
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: relatively inexpensive drugs. exploring the oncology potential of menbendazole and ivermectin,
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: what compounding pharmacists should know. Interest in repurposing these anti-parasitic
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: agents for oncology systems stems from both urgency and practicality.
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: Drug development is notoriously so inexpensive, especially in oncology, so
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: repurposing already approved medications is a logical pursuit. Menbendazole in
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: particular has emerged as a compelling candidate due to its
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: low toxicity profile and its potential to disrupt cancer cell
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: mitosis via microtubular inhibition. Similar ivermectin has shown promising in
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties in preclinical models. Both with the
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: promise comes the responsibility of So that's what I'm interested in.
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm reading about. Because both of those are
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: relatively inexpensive. With some of it, some of the research
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: looked promising to me.
• 48:30
  Speaker 10: You think they're listing Keytruda then?
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. You don't have the
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: side effects. Yeah, definitely less.
• 48:38
  Speaker 10: Just ask your wife what Keytruda costs.
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. I mean, it's something that they're looking on.
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: Then I'd be reading cases where people would have, like,
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: tumors disappear and some really incredible, what do you say, reversals.
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: Let's put it that way. So I just think it's interesting.
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's something worth reading about if you're in
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: that boat. That's all I can say.
• 49:08
  Speaker 10: My bigger takeaway from that is enjoy life, because all
• 49:13
  Speaker 10: of us, our days are numbered. We just don't know when.
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: That gentleman has a better idea.
• 49:18
  Speaker 10: But, you know.
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: It's inevitable.
• 49:20
  Speaker 10: I could get hit by a bus and be done tonight,
• 49:22
  Speaker 10: you know.
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: That's like I told everyone when I started at 3 o'clock.
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: It's a true story.
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: A guy told me, you know, he had heard me
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: talk in the past about carrying baby aspirin with me
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: all the time. Because my wife says, here it is.
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: It's in my pocket as we speak. You know, the
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: baby aspirin, the chewable ones, in case you have chest pain,
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: chew it and put it under your tongue. And that
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: buys you time to get to the emergency room. And
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: he had a heart problem, and he did that. And
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: he said it saved his life, really. So think about it.
• 49:50
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean, you know, I kick a baby aspirin
• 49:53
  Speaker 10: every day just as a preventative. Well, that's not a
• 49:56
  Speaker 10: family history of heart disease.
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: That's not a preventative, is it?
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: My wife insists that I carry it with me because
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: if you're having chest pain, start chewing it immediately. And
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: if you don't have it on you, it's not going
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: to work. Usually when the ambulance gets there, it's one
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: of the first things they do.
• 50:12
  Speaker 10: If you take one every day and thin your blood out,
• 50:14
  Speaker 10: it could potentially prevent the heart attack from occurring, if
• 50:19
  Speaker 10: that makes any sense. Right. There's a lot of people
• 50:21
  Speaker 10: who take them every day, but you're using it in
• 50:23
  Speaker 10: an acute sense of what you're feeling, chest pain, you
• 50:26
  Speaker 10: think you're having a heart attack. Yeah, chew up a
• 50:28
  Speaker 10: bunch of aspirin because it might save your life.
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: Right, and it does for a lot of people. And basically,
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: like I say, I got it in my pocket now.
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: She makes me carry it with me. Not that I
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: have any heart issues, but you never know as you
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: get older. And when the ambulance comes, it's usually one
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: of the first things they give you.
• 50:47
  Speaker 10: Oh, absolutely. But anyway, one of the reasons I called
• 50:51
  Speaker 10: was I was listening to your Friday podcast today when
• 50:54
  Speaker 10: you had G2 and... And you had Tex Fisher called in.
• 50:58
  Speaker 10: And I've actually sort of reformed my feelings or views
• 51:06
  Speaker 10: on Tex. Because when he really first got elected, I
• 51:08
  Speaker 10: was like, I don't know. I wasn't real impressed. But
• 51:10
  Speaker 10: I think he's really starting to mature into an effective
• 51:13
  Speaker 10: lawmaker for our area. I would agree with that. I
• 51:16
  Speaker 10: think that was a very good interview. You said you
• 51:20
  Speaker 10: were probably going to have him on more often.
• 51:21
  Speaker 14: Yes.
• 51:22
  Speaker 10: I hope you do. because I think he's turning into
• 51:25
  Speaker 10: one of the more effective representatives for all of us
• 51:28
  Speaker 10: in this area. And I like what he's doing. He
• 51:30
  Speaker 10: seems to support Dave Thomas a lot. Those two seem
• 51:33
  Speaker 10: to be working together well, which sort of dovetails into
• 51:37
  Speaker 10: my other point I'd like to make, is if you
• 51:41
  Speaker 10: had to choose between the two, would you take $ 5
• 51:44
  Speaker 10: gas prices from now until the next five years, and
• 51:50
  Speaker 10: if you could pay that, but in compensation for that,
• 51:55
  Speaker 10: they would cut your property taxes in half. Because I
• 52:00
  Speaker 10: would take, well, you might not.
• 52:01
  Speaker 11: No, no, no, no, no, no.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't take, on a hypothetical proposal, neither one of
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: those would be acceptable to say which one, it's one
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: or the other. I think your gasoline prices, not just
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: for my own purposes, but for inflation in general and
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: I think it is what our economy is based on,
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: is oil. And we are a petroleum-based economy, and it
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: affects everything. So I don't care if it's plastic roofing
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: or what you put in your car, what somebody puts
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: in a farm tractor or their truck. So you cannot
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: have sky-high energy prices without having sky-high inflation. We're a
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: petroleum-based economy. So that doesn't have much to do with–
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: they're two separate issues. I mean, I am just, I'm
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: genuinely troubled. Listen, how do I say this? I honest
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: to God believe we got into this situation, in my
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: humble opinion, because of Netanyahu. I believe that Israel coordinated
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: all of this and talked Trump into doing this. It
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: goes against a lot of where Trump was. Maybe he,
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: I don't know, right decision, wrong decision. Only time will tell.
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: But needless to say, that's why we're in this mess
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: that we're in. I can only imagine where the economy
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: would be if we've never did any of this as
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: far as gas prices and the American agenda and inflation.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: I think we'd be in a much better place. So
• 53:29
  Speaker 1: by doing this and making this decision, I don't believe
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: the majority of American people support it at all. I
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: think it would be detrimental in the midterms if it
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: continues like this. And I think when we're talking $ 5
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: gas or these betting markets at $ 5. 60 a gallon, I
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: think that is devastation to inflation and the economy if
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: that happens. And I'm getting tired of a deal's imminent,
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: a deal's imminent. If Iran is so up against the ropes, well,
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: they're not willing to make a deal at this point.
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: So if you bomb them more, we bombed the living
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: hell out of them at this point in time, and
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like they want to make a deal yet.
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: So if we bomb them more, is that going to
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: bring them closer to a deal?
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 54:14
  Speaker 10: I don't think they're going to deal. The only thing
• 54:17
  Speaker 10: I think you can do is make it so uncomfortable
• 54:20
  Speaker 10: that hopefully the Iranian people overthrow the government. The people
• 54:23
  Speaker 10: that are in charge, the people that hold the cards
• 54:25
  Speaker 10: and the guns and the power, aren't going to deal.
• 54:28
  Speaker 10: You're just not dealing with people that think like we do.
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: Right, it's a different philosophy. Right, it's a totally different culture.
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: And they're dug in. I mean, they are surrounded by
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: mountains and a real hot desert. So it's not like
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: it's an easy place to deal with from a strategery,
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: to quote George Bush, standpoint. And they might feel that
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: they can just wait all of this out. It's just
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: a matter of time. And maybe that's their philosophy. I
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: got to believe that they're up against the ropes economically.
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: But maybe, as a culture, they don't care about that.
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: They know that if they wait, that we'll go away
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: and people aren't going to tolerate this in America.
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: Who knows? Stand by. Stand by. Back with Rich, a pharmacist.
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: Call us on the line. Stand by. Ron Verb, here
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: until 5.30, then Guardians pregame.
• 55:20
  Speaker 20: 5.70 WKBN.
• 55:21
  Speaker 21: All right.
• 55:21
  Speaker 13: News Radio 570 WKBN 425.
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: Back with..
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: Richard, pharmacist, give me your insight into all of this.
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: I'll sit back and listen.
• 55:36
  Speaker 10: Well, the point I was trying to make when I
• 55:38
  Speaker 10: said the property tax thing was, well, gas prices are
• 55:42
  Speaker 10: high now. It's a supply and demand issue. Eventually, they
• 55:45
  Speaker 10: will come back down just like they always do because
• 55:47
  Speaker 10: there's plenty of supply out there. You just got to
• 55:49
  Speaker 10: get it to market once this whole situation resolves itself. Taxes, however,
• 55:54
  Speaker 10: never seem to go down. The government just constantly keeps
• 55:57
  Speaker 10: picking into our pocket and picking into our pocket and
• 56:01
  Speaker 10: taking more and more of what we go to work
• 56:04
  Speaker 10: and earn every day. I think they were talking on
• 56:08
  Speaker 10: the podcast last Friday, G2, and Techs are talking about
• 56:11
  Speaker 10: the small east down in Columbus and how much graft
• 56:15
  Speaker 10: and fraud has been committed there and how many billions
• 56:18
  Speaker 10: of our dollars has been wasted.
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: And it was like DeWine didn't give a damn. And
• 56:22
  Speaker 2: DeWine didn't give a damn about it.
• 56:25
  Speaker 10: Now, you talk about a disappointing governor. I mean, all
• 56:30
  Speaker 10: the people that love DeWine, he has been probably, I
• 56:34
  Speaker 10: take Ted Strickland over him.
• 56:36
  Speaker 11: I don't know about that.
• 56:38
  Speaker 10: I don't know. I mean, could he be any worse?
• 56:40
  Speaker 10: I mean, realistically, like I was just listening to the
• 56:42
  Speaker 10: news when... Who was it? I think it was a
• 56:47
  Speaker 10: favor that was... No, Dave Yost resigned, right?
• 56:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 56:50
  Speaker 10: The logical thing, if you're a Republican, would be you
• 56:53
  Speaker 10: appoint the guy who's going to run in November to
• 56:55
  Speaker 10: that position. Did he do it?
• 56:57
  Speaker 13: No. No.
• 57:00
  Speaker 10: I mean, you had Amy Acton, who worked for Obama...
• 57:04
  Speaker 10: It was an Obama proponent. And you make her the
• 57:07
  Speaker 10: medical director and then elevate her to that position so
• 57:10
  Speaker 10: that now she's running for governor and has a decent
• 57:13
  Speaker 10: chance of beating Ramaswamy, unfortunately.
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: But I keep going back. I keep reminding everybody, she
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: quit as a state doctor. She could not take the
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: heat and the criticism and quit and left. Well, don't
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: forget that when you say, oh, she needs to be governor.
• 57:29
  Speaker 22: Really?
• 57:29
  Speaker 10: Oh, I'll vote for Vivek every day of the week.
• 57:33
  Speaker 10: You know, just like when we have the commissioner's race,
• 57:36
  Speaker 10: you have to vote Christine Oliver, because can you imagine
• 57:39
  Speaker 10: how bad it's going to be if we get McNally
• 57:41
  Speaker 10: in there?
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: Right, but I mean, it's... It's ridiculous. I agree with
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: you as far as that appointment is concerned. But what
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: troubles me most is what Tex Fisher was talking and
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: Dave Thomas. We have Minnesota-like fraud going on here in Ohio.
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: And as I asked him, where was our checks and
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: balances to make sure that this wasn't happening?
• 58:08
  Speaker 2: Where was our internal..
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: How disappointing is this that billions of dollars were swindled
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: here in the state of Ohio, and it's like no
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: one seems to care as far as DeWine is concerned?
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: I mean, I just shake my head when I listen
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: to all of this stuff. A friend of mine once
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: said it's so discouraging you don't even want to pay
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: your taxes because they take your money and they just
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: piss it away with people that have stolen millions and
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: billions of dollars. And then they act as though they're
• 58:40
  Speaker 1: not that concerned to go after them and put anybody
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: in jail because you're never going to get the money back.
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: And DeWine's a shining example of that.
• 58:49
  Speaker 10: He reminds me of your old school, like George Bush,
• 58:52
  Speaker 10: Mitt Romney, Republican. He doesn't want to go in there.
• 58:55
  Speaker 10: He doesn't want to rock the boat. He doesn't want
• 58:57
  Speaker 10: to change anything. The status quo is okay.
• 58:59
  Speaker 2: But it's not okay. Stand by back in a minute.
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: Hang on. Road in Struthers. News Radio 570. WKVN. 70. WKVN.
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: All right, let me go back. with Richard Pharmacist. I mean,
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: the bottom line is, listen, do I think, just going
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: back before I get back to the state of Ohio,
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: do I think the military's done a great job in Iran?
• 59:19
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 59:20
  Speaker 2: And bombing them?
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: Yes. And are they paying a serious price economically? Absolutely not.
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: And so do I sit back and say, well, why
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: aren't they reaching an agreement? Why aren't they– why isn't
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: this deal eminent, as they say? And why– well, I
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: thought we had their backs to the wall, and I
• 59:39
  Speaker 1: think we do financially and in many ways. But yet
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: they won't agree to some of the stuff that we're
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: saying is a must, I guess. So– So what's the strategy? Well,
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: we might have to go back to bombing more. Well,
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: what makes you think bombing more is going to change anything?
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: You bombed them enough. They're dug into the mountains and
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: all this kind of stuff. And it's like this. I'll
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: just say from a standpoint, this can't go on. As
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: I've said publicly to you before, I think Trump misread this.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: I thought he thought it would be over much sooner
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: than it is.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: It's not.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: And this can't go on for six months. And people
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: aren't going to– the surveys show the majority of people
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: do not support this. And they're not going to support
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: $ 5 gas for a long period of time or even
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 1: higher gas. I mean, that's just the bottom line. And
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: it's not one of the biggest causes of concern for
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: the American people on their radar screen that they were
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: up at night worrying about Iran and their nuclear weapon.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: They're worried about paying their mortgage. and inflation and keeping
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: their job with AI. That's what they're worried about. Comment, please.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 10: I don't disagree with you. I mean, like I've said,
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 10: I think long-term, if you're looking five, ten years out
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 10: from here, we are able to defeat Iran and get
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 10: their nuclear program, get the dust to the toxic. I
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 10: think long-term, it's going to look good. In the short-term,
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 10: it sucks because we're having to live with the pains
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 10: and the prices that it's causing. You know, I don't
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 10: disagree with anything you said. I kind of disagree with
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 10: you that it can't last six months. I think it
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 10: could definitely last six months. It could last longer than
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 10: six months.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: Right, and I know what I'm saying is that would
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: be a disaster for Trump's presidency.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 10: Yeah, it will. I wouldn't argue that. You know, it'll
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 10: be all impeachment all the time, all over again.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: Doesn't matter.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 10: It was the last time.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 2: People will say, no.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 10: It'll be ridiculous.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: People will say, we voted for you for affordability and
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: energy and secure the borders and getting these people out,
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: and now you've side-railed every... everything over to this situation
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: in Iran. Make no mistake, there's still a lot of
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: people who voted for Trump that are genuinely pissed off
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: about how he has handled the Epstein situation. That has
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: not gone away. And then you're upsetting a lot of
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: other people with ignoring the America First agenda, and that's
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: not going to go away. So all I'm saying is
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: that he really needs to resolve this quickly and try
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: to bring prices back down to salvage his presidency.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 10: I just don't see a quick resolution to it. You know,
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 10: I could be wrong. You could see it totally collapse.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 10: You could see the government over there collapse.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: I would love to see it.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 10: And the people sue for peace. I just don't think
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 10: that's likely. And what you're saying, in our country, if
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 10: the populace gets mad, we can change the government. You know,
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 10: this November, we may vote Democrats out. And we can
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 10: get change that way. In authoritarian regimes, you look at Iran, China,
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 10: North Korea.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 2: They got all the guns.
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 10: A chunk of the world. The authorities don't care because
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 10: they don't have to be responsible to the people.
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: No, you can go out and protest. They'll just shoot
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: you between the eyes. And the protests end real quick
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: after that. Because you don't have a weapon.
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 10: That's exactly what Iran did back in January. That's what
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 10: they killed. Estimates between 10 and 40,000 people.
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 2: Because people don't have any..
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 1: Arms to defend themselves so what's the talk now well
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: we have to we the united states have to arm
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: all these people in iran so that they can stand
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: up uh to to the government well that's probably easier
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: said than done too so we we shall see as
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: time goes on now going back to the state i
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: mean dewine is such a disappointment to me as a
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: governor you make perfect sense why he didn't appoint the
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: the guy that's running to be the Attorney General in
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: that position.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: Doesn't make a lick of sense.
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 1: But when you hear Tex Fisher and these guys talk
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: about how, where's the fire in the belly about all
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: of this fraud? Where was our checks and balances in
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: the state of Ohio to see if this stuff is
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: being legitimately done? All these people that you're paying, all
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: these offices that you have, why weren't they looking into
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: where this money was going and if it was legitimate
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: or not, when we're talking billions of dollars of wasteful,
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: fraudful spending in Ohio. And that's a fair question to ask.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: Where was the auditor during all of this?
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: Why wasn't he involved? How did this go on?
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 10: You probably don't remember, but when I first started calling you,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 10: one of the things that I really started calling you
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 10: about was how much money is wasted on Medicaid in
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 10: the state of Ohio.
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: And the numbers are huge.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 10: And the number of people that are on Medicaid. in
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 10: the state of Ohio. It's astronomical.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: I believe it's close to half.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 10: Yeah, it's a lot of people. I mean, it depends
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 10: on where you're at. It's a lot less in suburban America.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 10: You get into the cities and you're at 70%, 80% probably.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: When they're talking 50%, the people are talking the state
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: population here. They're talking half your state budget, $ 45 billion
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: goes to Medicaid.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 10: And stop and think about that. So when you look
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 10: at your income taxes withheld out of your check, you
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 10: figure half of that is being spent by the state
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 10: of Ohio providing free care to the less fortunate.
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: And how much of that is being ripped off and
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: stolen by, obviously, billions of dollars in the state of Ohio.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 1: And I'm sure that there's significant fraud in Medicare as
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: well with providers stealing a lot of that kind of money.
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: But let's get the crack down. Let's see some people
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: go to jail, for God's sakes, for stealing billions of dollars.
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 10: And that was my point earlier. As bad as it
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 10: is right now having to pay the increased gas costs,
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 10: what the government is picking our pocket for on a
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 10: daily basis to me is far worse. But we don't
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 10: really see that. It's almost like an invisible cost that
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 10: we all pay that isn't on our radar. Every day
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 10: you drive past a gas station, you see the immediate
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 10: cost that's on your radar.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: Well, you're attacked on every front. Do you blame the
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: guy that said to me, I don't even want to
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: pay my... File his tax return April 15th because when
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: I see all the fraud that took place that Elon
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: Musk was talking about, then I see all the fraud
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: in Minnesota, then I hear about all the fraud in Ohio,
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: and I'm looking at all my hard-earned money that's taken
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: away from me, and I look at how government's just
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: pissing it away. How discouraging is that to me as
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: a taxpayer? How do I argue with that guy?
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: Because I can't. I understand. You can't.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 10: No, I mean, it's frustrating. Every April 15th when we
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 10: write those checks out and you take a look at
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 10: what your total tax bill is, it's a lot of money.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 10: It's a lot more money than what you're spending on gas.
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 10: And that was my only point. As bad as gas is,
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 10: it's not nearly as bad as the government picking your
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 10: pocket every day. And like you always say, it's not
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 10: just income tax. It's income tax, property tax, sales tax,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 10: license fees for your license plates, driver. Think of all
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 10: the things that you pay. And you're probably approaching 50%
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 10: of what you pay goes to the government in one
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 10: way or another.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: Right. Because you have many of these entities, they're not
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 1: really private sector businesses. They are on paper, but they
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: get the bulk of their business from collecting Medicaid. All
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: these people that are into rehabilitating people that are hooked
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 1: on drugs, that's all paid for by Medicaid.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 2: So how many of those.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: People are actually going and being paid for private sector
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: insurance or from the family?
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 2: Very few compared to Medicaid picking it all up.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: So, hey, if it doesn't work out and you go
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: right back on drugs, what difference does it make? They
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: basically view you as a customer, and they made their money,
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: and maybe you'll be repeat business. It is so– we
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 1: can't afford this at $ 400 a day.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 5: No.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 10: No. No, it's ridiculous. But, you know, you look at
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 10: when they were put, all the illegal immigrants that they
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 10: were putting up in those hotels in New York at
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 10: $ 400 a night.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 10: You know, it's just, it's crazy. It's crazy. So while
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 10: we get upset about the gas tax, or the gas prices,
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 10: I don't like paying them any more than anybody else.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 10: You know, you have to look at the bigger picture. Well,
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 10: it's easy to focus day to day on the gas tax,
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 10: but we would be much better served if we could
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 10: get more responsible people to run for office and make
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 10: better decisions. You just like I look at the county
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 10: with the money they're wasting on that Eastern Gateway project,
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 10: 60 million dollars or whatever. And then I was just
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 10: driving downtown the other day, and you look across from
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 10: the courthouse, which is beautiful, and they've done a nice
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 10: job revitalizing a lot of downtown, and you've got the
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 10: old abandoned MedArt building there that's just a sore thumb
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 10: sticking out right in the middle of everything. And I'm thinking,
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 10: why aren't they looking at the first thing I would do,
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 10: wreck the MedArt building and put a new building there
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 10: It's right across from a courthouse. And I bet it
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 10: wouldn't cost $ 4 million to wreck that building like it's
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 10: going to cost to wreck Eastern Gateway. And I just
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 10: don't understand that. Like you said, there's never been any
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 10: public hearings held on this. There's never been any accountability
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 10: of the people that are going to have to pay
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 10: that $ 60 million bond that they take out. When it's
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 10: all said and done, it'll be $ 80 or $ 90 when
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 10: it's all said and done.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 2: They don't even ask you. They don't even care what
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: your thoughts are.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: It's like, so you're going to take Moaning County and
• 1:09:24
  Speaker 1: you're going to put it in debt for $ 60 million
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: and we don't even consult you. We all think this
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: is a great idea and it's a lousy idea. But
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: we don't even consult anybody, but yet you're going to
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 1: be on the hook for the bonds that we're going
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: to put you in debt for. This is insanity. Absolute insanity.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: That's what they're worried about. I go back to say this.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: They're worried about that, but they can't give taxpayers some
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: of their money back. I mean, that's the problem right there.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: And I hope Christine Oliver gets elected and changes that.
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 10: I wouldn't even mind. They could have the money I
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 10: pay now, just spend it better. You're double $ 1. 4 million
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 10: on an electric bus for WRTA.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 11: Right.
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 10: Stuff like that. You know, it's just ridiculous.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 13: Yep.
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 2: All right, Rich. Thank you. Always good to hear from you. Rich,
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: the pharmacist, you're on the air.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 10: Hello?
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: You're on the air.
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 23: Hey, Ron, what's up?
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 2: Bubba Ganoush. Comment, please.
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 23: Well, I tell you, the press and water beginning of
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 23: the show, wasn't it?
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 2: What's that? Nothing is depressing. It's informative.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 23: Listen, I mean, if you could actually get..
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: There are things to be concerned about. I mean, from
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: an economic standpoint, believe me, when we're talking about this
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: situation in Iran and the price of a barrel of
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: oil and the economy, there's just cause for concern in
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: addition to, as I say, the pending changes that are
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: going to happen within the next three years. that have
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: already started with AI eliminating jobs. There's some serious things ahead,
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: and be it be, know what's going on. That's all
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. You better be aware.
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 24: I am aware.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: I don't think you are.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 23: Yeah, we are.
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I am.
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 2: No, I don't think you are.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 23: What you see is death, destruction, war. The guy you
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 23: voted for is a bum.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 14: Okay.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 24: No, I didn't.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: No, I didn't say it because, see, you put the
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: words in my mouth. If you ask me today, would
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: I vote for Kamala Harris?
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 11: No.
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 2: Would I vote for Sherrod Brown?
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 15: No.
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 1: So even though I disagree with Trump maybe on this
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 1: situation in Iran, he knows more than I do.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 2: He could be right on this.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 23: How about Amy Atkins?
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 2: I'll never vote for her.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: So as disappointed as I am in a current situation
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 1: in Iran, I'm not a ding-a-ling like some people will
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 1: be and say, well, I'm going to go vote for
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 1: the other party. The other party's a disaster. I don't
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: want to vote for people who put tampons in the
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 1: men's room. Under no circumstances would I vote for any Democrat.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 11: Period.
• 1:12:39
  Speaker 1: And as bad as the situation is in Iran with Trump,
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: I'm still better off with him as president as I
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: would have been with Kamala Harris.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 23: I tell you, Ron DeSantis is doing a great job
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 23: in Florida, isn't he?
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 1: The saddest thing about Florida and Ron DeSantis is he's
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 1: term-limited out. If it was up to me, I would
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: say Ron DeSantis should be governor forever. What a great
• 1:13:02
  Speaker 1: job that man is doing in Florida. What a great
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 1: governor he is. That's one of the problems of term limits.
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 1: It has good points and bad points, but one of
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: the bad points is you've got a guy like that
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 1: who everybody would vote for to give him another term
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: because he's just terrific.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 2: At his job.
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 6: You might like Tim Ryan.
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 2: You want me to come right through this phone line
• 1:13:23
  Speaker 2: and clobber you right on the head?
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 23: Yeah, Tim Ryan. There you go, term limits.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 2: Tim Ryan was voted out of office.
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: Tim Ryan was a guy that became a politician and
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: out of touch with his constituents and should have lost
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 1: and been voted out of office years ago.
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 25: Right.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 23: In his first term, he sold out.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 1: Tim Ryan, look at the difference between Traffickin and Tim Ryan.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: Tim Ryan tried to act like he could be Traffickin-like,
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: but he became nothing more than just a politician.
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 2: And did it work out for him personally? Hell yeah.
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 1: He sold his home here, moved down to Columbus. He's
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: a consultant making a ton of money.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 23: It worked out for him, didn't it?
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it worked out great for him. But I also
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: made the prediction. I said to you, Tim Ryan, the
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: one they were trying to recruit him to run for governor,
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: I said, that's a big mistake. And I said at
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 1: that time, Amy Acton will be a more formable candidate
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: than Tim Ryan ever would be. And she's turned into
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 1: exactly that. Doesn't mean I like her. Doesn't mean I'd
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: vote for her. But I could see that she would
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 1: be an effective candidate. And if you believe polling and
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: they say it's neck and neck, well.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 23: You believe who? Who says it's neck and neck?
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 2: The polling says it's neck and neck.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 6: Oh, my God.
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 23: That's why I don't like polling.
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 9: Right.
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 23: I mean, for fake, I've got a historical win in
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 23: the Republican Party here in Ohio.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean, is that a shocker to anybody
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: that she won her primary and he won his? That
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: means absolutely nothing. It means absolutely nothing.
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 26: Yeah.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 23: Nothing.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 24: Hey, by the way.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 27: Yeah.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 23: The Guardians got a hit. They have basically loaded three guys.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God, yeah.
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 23: I mean, I was just sick to my stomach. They
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 23: couldn't bring anybody in.
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's... So what are you thinking? They just
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: got to get the bats?
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 20: Yeah.
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 23: It's just like if you ever ran a team, you'll
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 23: know people go in slumps.
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 23: You know, Boca's sick, and, you know, the leadership is...
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 23: dry right now, so.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 11: It's, uh..
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 2: It's depressing.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 23: We'll win tonight.
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, we're not losing game.
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 23: After game after game. We only lost one out of four.
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but we gotta win more than we're winning.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 3: Right, I agree.
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'll be listening.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 1: I'll be listening tonight, and then the Cavaliers, well, they
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: offer Ray a hope.
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 23: How about the Cavs? What's going on with them?
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 2: They're doing well. Just give me a quick ball game,
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 2: and then I gotta go.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:16:03
  Speaker 6: All right. Okay.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 23: Base is loaded. Two outs. There he is.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 2: I thought it's like talking with Tom Hamilton. Back in
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 2: a minute. The year.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 8: Youngstown's news, weather, and talk station. 570 WKBN.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: 4.55 in the afternoon. Ron Verb from the kingdom of Mahoning.
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 10: I am.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 4: I am.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 2: News Radio 570 WKBN.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 10: Hello. Hey, Ron.
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 1: Emanuel.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 24: When you get home, tell the boss I said happy
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 24: belated Mother's Day.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 2: All right, I will.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 24: You know, I listen to you, the pharmacists, Rich, the pharmacists, Ted,
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 24: the conservative.
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 2: Bubba Ganoush.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 24: Yeah, Bubba Ganoush, right?
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, think of which, even you went to the,
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 1: Mediterranean Fest and had that god-awful food in honor of
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: Baba Ghanoush.
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 24: Well, see, I understand that half of Lebanon are Muslim people,
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 24: so that's because I like their food. But Baba don't
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 24: tell you that.
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 3: It's the truth.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 24: I bring receipts. Y'all some good guys, but you guys
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 24: got some type of syndrome going on. Now, try to
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 24: follow me, okay?
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 6: Try to follow me. All right.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 24: You don't have to believe what I say. You guys
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 24: never believe what I say, then you find out it's true.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 24: I tell you, I go to minus touch who Trump
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 24: is trying to sue right now.
• 1:17:43
  Speaker 10: All right.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 24: Now, it's a fact that MTG said that Donald Trump
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 24: told her that he can't release the Epstein files because
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 24: it would hurt his friends. Now, Donald Trump is a president,
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 24: and he's a Republican, okay? So now you go to
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 24: the House. I think the guy's name is Comers or
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 24: something like that. He's bringing in cabinet members and Republicans,
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 24: and he's telling them, you don't have to take an
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 24: oath like every Democrat had to do. And we're going
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 24: to do it in secret. And we're going to do
• 1:18:22
  Speaker 24: a transcript, right? So the guy gets in there, and
• 1:18:27
  Speaker 24: they say, oh, you set up on the oath this about,
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 24: you know, you went to Epstein Island. He says, I
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 24: don't remember that. Well, listen, the guy's not up.
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 10: On the oath.
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 24: He's not in front of a camera. And that's how
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 24: they're doing their Epstein investigation. If you're a Democrat, you've
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 24: got to go up on the oath with the risk
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 24: of perjury. Now, they're Republicans. Now, let's go to the
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 24: state of Ohio. Now, like you said, you've got this
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 24: fraud thing going on. That was after the one we
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 24: thought was the biggest one with the electric company, right?
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 24: And come to find out that these Ohio Republicans have
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 24: been getting money from the Epstein class, right? All these
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 24: people are Republicans. All these people, right, are just plain
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 24: breaking the law. Not to mention in Virginia how they voted.
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 24: for redistricting. And the Supreme Court said, no, we don't
• 1:19:20
  Speaker 24: care how you vote. It's just like in the state
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 24: of Ohio.
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 2: Stand by.
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 10: Stand by.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 4: Stand by.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 24: Just stand by.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 2: Stand by.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 10: Stand by.
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 2: Back with me. From ABC News.
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 28: I'm Lindsay Davis, anchor of Prime, streaming weeknights on ABC
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 28: News Live. The fragile ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 28: faces new challenges. President Trump says the ceasefire is on
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 28: life support after he rejected Iran's response to a U.S.
• 1:19:50
  Speaker 28: memo to end the war and set up a 30-day
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 28: negotiation period. The president says his goals remain the same.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 2: But I have a plan.
• 1:19:57
  Speaker 4: It's a very simple plan.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know why you don't.
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: Say it like it is, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon.
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 28: ABC's Tom Sufi-Burge has more on the sticking point.
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 29: The future status of Iran's nuclear program, not just the
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 29: stocks of enriched uranium which remain in Iran and are
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 29: thought to be buried deep underground, but also Iran's ability
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 29: to enrich uranium going forward. And we've had a statement
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 29: from a senior Iranian official today via state media saying
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 29: enrichment is not negotiable. And what they mean by that
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 29: is that Iran won't give up its right to enrich
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 29: uranium forever. for what it says are civilian purposes.
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 28: Gas prices remain at four-year highs. The president says he
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 28: may implement a temporary federal gas tax holiday to ease
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 28: the pain at the pump. Efforts to monitor the hantavirus
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 28: outbreak on board a Dutch cruise ship continue in several countries,
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 28: including the U.S., after passengers were evacuated. Seventeen Americans and
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 28: one British national were flown to medical centers in both
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 28: Nebraska and Georgia. ABC's Steve Osensami is outside Emory University
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 28: Hospital in Atlanta.
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 15: Two of those patients were flown here to Atlanta because
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 15: they are trying to relieve any potential pressure on the
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 15: facility in Nebraska. The concern is that if another one
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 15: of those patients had tested positive in Nebraska, they would
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 15: have limited facilities available. to handle this over there, so
• 1:21:14
  Speaker 15: they're sending some of those patients here for relief.
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 28: Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has extended a stay in
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 28: a Mifepristone case, allowing access to the key abortion drug
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 28: for now. The drug has been deemed safe by FDA
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 28: scientists and available to women for decades by mail and
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 28: telehealth visits. You're listening to ABC News.
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 6: KVN.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: Hi-dee-ho, 507 News Radio 570 WKVN. Ron Verb from the
• 1:21:40
  Speaker 1: Kingdom of Mahoning here this afternoon on News Radio 570
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: WKVN on a Monday, May 11th, 61 degrees. All right, Emmanuel,
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 1: go ahead and finish your comments.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 24: What was the last thing you heard about the state
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 24: of Ohio or Virginia or what?
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 2: From you?
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 6: Yeah, just now.
• 1:21:59
  Speaker 1: You remind me of when my wife says something to me.
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: You remind me of my wife the other day. She
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: was telling me she says, you know, your problem is
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: you're not a very good listener. And I forget what
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: she was saying after that, but anyway.
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 24: I'll give you a cliff note real quick, right?
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 2: That's the oldest joke in the world that didn't work
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 2: on you.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 24: Well, it works on my daughter. She's in school.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 2: All right, go ahead.
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 24: Now, like I told you before, MTG. said, you know,
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 24: several times that Donald Trump told her that he can't
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 24: release the F-10 files because it would hurt his friends. Now,
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 24: he's a president, and he's a Republican. Now, Comer, who
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 24: has a committee doing investigations at the House, is bringing
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 24: in cabinet members, and he wants Pam Bondi to come in.
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 24: But they're not up under oath, like every other single
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 24: Democrat had to do, Clinton and all those guys, call
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 24: me all those guys, at the risk of being charged
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 24: with perjury, right? The Republicans that come there do not
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 24: take the oath. They are not in front of cameras.
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 24: They're behind closed doors, and they're taking a transaction. And
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 24: if they said at one time in front of the
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 24: camera up under Oak, right, that they went to the
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 24: Epstein Island, they asked them about it back there, and
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 24: they say, well, I don't remember saying that. Well, guess what?
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 24: You're not up under Oak, and so you're not in trouble.
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 24: So that's okay. So they're Republicans. Now you go to
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 24: the state of Ohio. We already found out about the
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 24: fraud that's going on. That's after one of the biggest
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 24: scandals in the history of Ohio when it comes to
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 24: the electric company, right? And to make matters worse, and
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 24: this is the one that just got me wrong, you
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 24: have elected officials, Republicans, that have been getting money from
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 24: the extreme class people. So now, I just want to say,
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 24: I got to say this, two things that kind of
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 24: make me mad about this. Number one, Can't they find
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 24: an old black guy that went to the islands? Are
• 1:24:15
  Speaker 24: they all white?
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 6: And number two, right, find a Democrat.
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 24: Because, listen, all these things are Republicans.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 3: And you have to be halfway.
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 24: Insane to say it would be worse with the Democrats.
• 1:24:30
  Speaker 24: You say what?
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 1: Well, first of all, when it comes to Epstein Island,
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 1: there's plenty of Democrats that were on that island as well,
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 1: and many of them.
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 2: Name them. Name them. Well, okay. Who was the guy? Summers.
• 1:24:45
  Speaker 2: Larry Summers was one of them, if you remember him.
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 24: He wasn't a politician.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, he was. He was in the cabinet of one of.
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 6: The— He never ran for nothing.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 2: It doesn't matter.
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: He was involved. He worked for Obama. There were many
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 1: of them that have quit their jobs or left in disgrace.
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: And there are Democrats that were in there. But that
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 1: doesn't matter. It doesn't matter to me if they're Democrats
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: or Republicans when it comes to the situation with Epstein.
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: I'll say to you, which I'll say again, I believe
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 1: everything should be released. But I'm not going to give
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden a pass or the Democrats a pass. When
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 1: they were in power, they could have done exactly that,
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 1: and they choose to do nothing with it. So, no,
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 1: I'm not finished. I listen to you talk. And the
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 1: reality is all of them could have done anything when
• 1:25:37
  Speaker 1: it comes to this particular situation. I don't understand why
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 1: Trump did a 180 on it when he said, you're
• 1:25:43
  Speaker 1: talking about that?
• 1:25:45
  Speaker 2: That's old news. No, it's not old news.
• 1:25:48
  Speaker 1: And I think it hurt his reputation and his presidency
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 1: that he didn't do what he said he would do
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 1: when he was campaigning. But I also think there's fair
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 1: criticism that can be passed along on Biden and his
• 1:25:59
  Speaker 1: administration for not releasing this stuff at that particular time.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 1: I don't give a damn if it's Republicans or Democrats.
• 1:26:06
  Speaker 1: As I've said numerous times, Epstein was created by the
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: intelligence community, whether that's Israel and the United States or
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 1: just Israel.
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: He was created. He was he was manufactured. His purpose
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 2: was to.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: Take these people of financial influence or political influence and
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 1: get something on him to control him. And I think
• 1:26:27
  Speaker 1: that's and people knew what was going on at Epstein
• 1:26:30
  Speaker 1: Island and on that plane, just based on what what
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 1: the folks referred to as far as. Pedophile Island and
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 1: what they named the plane. So I don't think it
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 1: was some big secret there as to what was going on.
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 1: And I think everyone should be held accountable because basically
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: you have victims that are underage girls that were engaged
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 1: in sexual activity. They were children with these people like
• 1:26:56
  Speaker 1: the likes of Prince Andrew and others. I you're obviously
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 1: innocent till proven guilty. But I would like to see
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 1: a lot more action take place. And that is what
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 1: that's why he's got a beef. I think Trump does
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: with Marjorie Taylor Greene and with Thomas Massey and with
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: Boebert Bobarts and others that say release everything. Everything should
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 1: be released. We should get to the bottom of this.
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 1: And I think if you do find you'll get to
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 1: the bottom of it, you'll find a lot of Democrats
• 1:27:28
  Speaker 1: involved in it, probably more Democrats than Republicans. But I
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 1: don't give a damn what party they're with.
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 6: Why would you say that?
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 1: Well, because you take a look at the– not the financial.
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 1: You take a look at the political persuasion of Epstein
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 1: was heavily into the Democrat community and the Democrats.
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, do I– No, I'm not assuming it.
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 1: So do I know that– Give me some receipts, Ron. Listen,
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 1: you can't have it one way and not the other. OK,
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 1: you have Democrat lawyers, you have many people and you
• 1:27:58
  Speaker 1: fail to actually follow it as it's going along. Whether
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 1: it's Larry Summers and other Democrats that have left their
• 1:28:05
  Speaker 1: positions of employment, lawyers, college people and others that have
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 1: left that are primarily Democrats that have left disgrace because
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 1: they've been tied to Epstein. But I don't care if
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 1: they're Democrats or Republicans. Once again, I don't think anybody
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 1: should get a pass on it at all. And I'm
• 1:28:25
  Speaker 1: and I don't know why Biden didn't release this stuff.
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 1: I don't know why Trump didn't release all of it.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 1: He's released more of it than anyone. But that's not enough.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: So I leave it at that. I mean, I don't
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 1: know what more you want. I don't know what more
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 1: you want done. I would agree that it's the focus.
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 1: should be the victims, but I don't think you'll find
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: this out. And I'll tell you specifically why, because I
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 1: think it's an intelligence operation. And I think that that
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 1: is why you will find nothing out. And I don't
• 1:28:51
  Speaker 1: believe many of these people will ever be brought, brought
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 1: to justice because of who was really behind it.
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 24: You know what I want, Ron?
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 10: You know what I really, really want?
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 24: I want whoever goes in front of the committee to
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 24: be sworn in.
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 2: Oh, I think everybody should be. I totally agree. Everyone
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 2: should be sworn in. I don't know.
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: I haven't actually looked at that to even be able
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 1: to verify it, but I don't know.
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 2: Thanks.
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 24: I know.
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 13: I know.
• 1:29:21
  Speaker 2: But here's my problem with you. No offense.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 1: You want a Republican says Republicans in that venue. Then
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 1: I talk to you about the Democrats and it's like
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 1: you're oblivious to all the Democrats that have quit. Do
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 1: you give a damn about any of the Democrats that
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 1: were involved in it? Do you do you know Epstein
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 1: was funding mainly the Democrats?
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 10: Listen, listen, Ron.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 24: I'm the same guy.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 2: That told you. No, you're not.
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 1: Does it bother you at all that Maxwell was at
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: Clinton's wedding, their daughter's wedding?
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 2: Does that mean anything to you?
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 1: Or does that mean nothing because they're Democrats, that she
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 1: actually attended Chelsea's wedding?
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 24: Well, you didn't say the pedophiles, Ron. Go ahead.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 2: No, I mean, she's behind it.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 1: Does it bother you that you see Bill Clinton in
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 1: a hot tub with those women?
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 2: Or was that just a pass?
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 6: He was not underage.
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 2: Oh, come on.
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 19: All right.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 2: We're wasting time. You're on the air.
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 30: I don't want to waste your time, but I think
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 30: I was glad to hear that you said, you know,
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 30: give Donald Trump a chance to go through with whatever
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 30: plan he has. And, you know, I don't know about
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 30: the polls. The majority of people don't want to be
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 30: in Iran or whatever. But I do know about the
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 30: amount of people on September 10th of 2001 who that
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 30: had no idea that there were going to be two
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 30: planes flying into the World Trade Center. But I know
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 30: how they felt the day after. I know how I felt.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 30: I don't want a nuclear bomb going off in New
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 30: York City. And a lot of this has to do
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 30: with Donald Trump loving New York City. But I just
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 30: can't understand that.
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 2: I will say this to you.
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 1: Unless you have the public support on something, and I
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 1: can appreciate your passion, but you better take a look
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 1: back at Vietnam and all the rest of this stuff
• 1:31:09
  Speaker 1: that has gone on. If you don't have the public
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 1: behind it, it doesn't succeed. We have not had a
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 1: very good track record in the Middle East at all
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 1: with regime changes or any of the military actions that
• 1:31:20
  Speaker 1: we've taken in the Middle East. Afghanistan and the people,
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 1: the soldiers that were killed and hurt in Afghanistan have
• 1:31:27
  Speaker 1: were killed and hurt for nothing. It was given back
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 1: to the terrorists with all the equipment and in better
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 1: shape than when we took it. And if you take
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 1: a look at the other situations with regime change in
• 1:31:37
  Speaker 1: Victoria-Newland and what they did in the Middle East, most
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 1: of it was a failure. And most of those deaths
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 1: were unfortunate. that took place. This situation is not going,
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 1: in my opinion, as well as he thought it would go,
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 1: as quick as he would think it would go. And
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 1: if the vast majority of people in your country do
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 1: not support it, we're a government that's represented by and
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 1: from the people. And if they don't support it, then
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 1: that tells you, should they be ignored? Should we say
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 1: that they're all idiots? Should we attack anybody who thinks
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 1: Israel didn't have a lot behind getting him involved in
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 1: this or letting him believe that this would be over quickly?
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 1: Should we just attack people for expressing a different opinion
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 1: on it? Should we say to people that are bitching
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 1: about the price of gas, oh, it's no big deal.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 1: It's a small price to pay. Do you think a
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 1: lot of people were losing sleep at night thinking, well,
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 1: to quote G2, do you think if Iran launched a
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 1: nuclear weapon towards the United States that the United States
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: wouldn't obliterate them in the blink of an eye? That
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 1: they knew better than to do something like that? That
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 1: it wasn't really a threat to the United States of
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: America because they knew what we could do? Are you
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: confident you're not being sold a bill of goods? Those
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 1: are all questions worth asking.
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 30: Yeah, that's very, very true.
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 10: I agree.
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 6: I agree with that.
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 30: That line, the idea being, why would we allow nuclear
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 30: enrichment to go on at all in Iran, knowing how
• 1:33:10
  Speaker 30: crazy those people are, and that if they had the
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 30: opportunity to, they would make sure a bomb got over here.
• 1:33:18
  Speaker 30: Not necessarily by a missile, but, you know, just like
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 30: they inserted those people that blew the planes into the
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 30: freight centers. yeah the idea i.
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 1: Think terrorism is always going to be a threat to
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 1: the united states of america from the middle east period
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 1: now would you like to go over and conquer the
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 1: would you like to go over and conquer the entire
• 1:33:39
  Speaker 1: middle east because i think i think it's a and
• 1:33:44
  Speaker 1: last time i checked where were those terrorists from what nation.
• 1:33:48
  Speaker 30: What area they were from saudi arabia.
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 2: Yes and uh.
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 1: And was it not a flaw that they knew that
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 1: they were in this country and they knew what they
• 1:33:59
  Speaker 1: were up to and your government failed you by not
• 1:34:03
  Speaker 1: acting on it?
• 1:34:05
  Speaker 2: And what part of the government was that?
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 1: All parts of the government, whether that's the CIA, FBI,
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 1: whether that's the administration, they all failed miserably at stopping it.
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 1: They knew they were here. They were well aware that
• 1:34:17
  Speaker 1: they were here. They knew what was going on and
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 1: they didn't do anything. I think your own country failed
• 1:34:24
  Speaker 1: you in stopping September 11th. I think it could have
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 1: been prevented.
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 6: And it should have been.
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 2: But it wasn't.
• 1:34:37
  Speaker 1: And maybe you should look into what was known by
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 1: all the parties involved before September 11th happened and why
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 1: wasn't more done. I think that's a fair question to ask.
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 1: But how far do you want to go with Iran?
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 1: Do you want to get involved in a boots on
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 1: the ground? It's a difficult situation. I know we're not there,
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 1: but do you want to go there? Surrounded by mountains
• 1:35:03
  Speaker 1: in one of the hottest deserts you'll ever find? How
• 1:35:06
  Speaker 1: easy do you think that will be and how far
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 1: it is from the United States of America? How successful
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 1: have we been in the Middle East? I'm asking you.
• 1:35:15
  Speaker 30: It's been a management issue. It hasn't been the soldiers' fault,
• 1:35:19
  Speaker 30: for sure.
• 1:35:22
  Speaker 2: I don't know that it's a management issue.
• 1:35:24
  Speaker 1: Take a look at the logistics of it, where it's located,
• 1:35:28
  Speaker 1: the mountains, the desert.
• 1:35:31
  Speaker 2: Look at Vietnam.
• 1:35:32
  Speaker 1: A lot of times people that fight because this is
• 1:35:35
  Speaker 1: their homeland and where they live know that you're going
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 1: to go back home.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 10: With..
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 1: And Iran would say to you, who are you to
• 1:35:48
  Speaker 1: tell us we can't? We're not subject to the United States.
• 1:35:52
  Speaker 1: We're a separate country. We're worried about Israel. They'll say,
• 1:35:56
  Speaker 1: why can Israel have a nuclear weapon and we can't
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 1: have one as a deterrent? Why do these, why can
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 1: Egypt have one? Why can these other places have them?
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's going to be their argument. Who are
• 1:36:07
  Speaker 1: you to tell us we can't have one?
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 30: Well, it doesn't matter what that argument is. If they
• 1:36:14
  Speaker 30: get one, they will use it. It's not like it's
• 1:36:17
  Speaker 30: a political lever. It's the fact that if they get one,
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 30: they will use it, Ron.
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 2: They will use it.
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 1: Well, do you think that they have that ability as
• 1:36:29
  Speaker 1: it sits right now after the bunker buster and after
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 1: all the bombing that took place?
• 1:36:34
  Speaker 2: Do you think that hasn't set them back?
• 1:36:35
  Speaker 4: We don't know.
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 31: Okay.
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 4: We don't know.
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 2: Well, I suggest you hop on a plane and go
• 1:36:39
  Speaker 2: over there. We'll be back in a minute. by Estella's Pharma.
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 2: 570 WKBN. You're on air.
• 1:36:47
  Speaker 7: Yes, I just wanted to let everybody know if they
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 7: wanted to sign the property tax petition that the girls
• 1:36:53
  Speaker 7: are at Top Notch Diner tonight until 7. Apparently there's
• 1:36:56
  Speaker 7: a car show there, so they'll be collecting signatures. And
• 1:36:59
  Speaker 7: then I wanted to comment, I don't know if you
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 7: saw on the May 2nd weekend edition, the editorial that
• 1:37:04
  Speaker 7: they wrote about our movement, Axe Ohio Tax.
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 2: I did not.
• 1:37:08
  Speaker 7: It was a hit piece. It was a hit piece,
• 1:37:12
  Speaker 7: and they told everyone that it's doomed, and they told everyone,
• 1:37:15
  Speaker 7: do not sign the petition.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 2: Who's they?
• 1:37:18
  Speaker 7: The editorial in the Vindicator. It says, quote, individuals should
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 7: resist the very real temptation to sign Axe-Ohio tax ballot
• 1:37:27
  Speaker 7: access petitions. Can you imagine that?
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 14: A newspaper?
• 1:37:31
  Speaker 7: I mean, we have a right to petition our government,
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 7: don't we?
• 1:37:34
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 1:37:35
  Speaker 7: Apparently, the vindicator doesn't think so. So this came out
• 1:37:38
  Speaker 7: on May 2nd, and then May 3rd, I emailed them
• 1:37:41
  Speaker 7: a response. And, of course, they didn't print it this weekend.
• 1:37:44
  Speaker 3: Of course not.
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 7: Because they don't do two sides. They're just completely biased.
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 2: I tell you what, call me tomorrow and read me
• 1:37:54
  Speaker 2: their editorial.
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 13: Okay.
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 24: All right.
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 7: Sounds good.
• 1:37:57
  Speaker 4: Thanks.
• 1:37:58
  Speaker 2: You're on air.
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 28: Run.
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 4: Run.
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 2: Running out of time. Got to be quick tonight.
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 6: I'll call back.
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 10: No, no.
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, call back. You're on air.
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 19: Hello, Ron.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 10: Yes.
• 1:38:16
  Speaker 19: My opinion, quick opinion about what's going on in Iran. Okay,
• 1:38:23
  Speaker 19: Trump has a meeting, I believe, a summit or whatever
• 1:38:25
  Speaker 19: with Xi this week.
• 1:38:28
  Speaker 10: Yes. And I look.
• 1:38:30
  Speaker 19: There's going to be a lot of stuff discussed at
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 19: that summit or whatever, and I believe the gentleman who
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 19: covered the callers before, and it's not $ 5, it's gone
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 19: down a little bit, but diesel's gone up. a cheap
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 19: price for getting rid of the problem with Iran. I believe,
• 1:38:49
  Speaker 19: in my opinion, that this whole situation is going to
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 19: be over by the end of the month, if one
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 19: way or the other. And it's just my opinion. People
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 19: forget about 9-11. They forget that, although the Iran has
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 19: been devastated quite a bit, they could still have a
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 19: dirty bomb, put it on a foreign ship, fly it
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 19: under a foreign flag, dock it off the coast of
• 1:39:17
  Speaker 19: either California or New York and launch it. And it'd be,
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 19: you know, very devastated. So that's my opinion. This thing
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 19: is going to be over within three, three and a
• 1:39:28
  Speaker 19: half weeks.
• 1:39:29
  Speaker 2: We'll see. Thank you. You're on here.
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 19: Ron, I just called to say, we got to go.
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 2: No, you got to go.
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 32: All right.
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 10: I got to go.
• 1:39:39
  Speaker 2: You're on here.
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 4: Is the wall going to be built by November 3rd?
• 1:39:47
  Speaker 2: Which wall?
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 4: Southern border.
• 1:39:51
  Speaker 2: Well, you could, God, you would like to, by November 3rd?
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 4: Yes, midterm elections.
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 2: I doubt it.
• 1:40:02
  Speaker 4: Have G2 explain to you the three branches of the government.
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 2: Why should I have them do that?
• 1:40:10
  Speaker 4: They control the three branches of the government.
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 2: Well, who controls it?
• 1:40:19
  Speaker 4: It'll be after November 3rd.
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 1: All right. You don't make a lick of sense to me,
• 1:40:25
  Speaker 1: but I appreciate your call. NewsRadio 570. All right. We're

  Speaker 22: Here's the Bet365 Minute, where winning is everything, with Scott Davidson.
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 33: Let's check the numbers in the opener. Guardians, hefty favorite tonight.
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 33: They're minus 165. The total is 7.5. A big game
• 1:43:32
  Speaker 33: across the street, yes. At Rocket Arena, the Cavs minus 3.5.
• 1:43:36
  Speaker 33: Total there, 213. And for the first time this year,
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 33: going to give you an NBA prop. that I like
• 1:43:41
  Speaker 33: a lot tonight. I'm going with Donovan Mitchell to get
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 33: it done. I like Mitchell over 26.5 points. Now Donovan
• 1:43:47
  Speaker 33: just dropped in 35 and 31 in the last two
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 33: games in this series. He has 19 plus shots in
• 1:43:53
  Speaker 33: all three of the games. He's going to get the volume.
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 33: He's just got to hit the shots. He knows the
• 1:43:58
  Speaker 33: Cavs are in huge trouble if they lose tonight. I
• 1:44:01
  Speaker 33: think Donovan Mitchell gets it done. Over 26.5 points my
• 1:44:03
  Speaker 33: play of the day. Now, you can join me when

  Speaker 11: Welcome back to Guardian's Warm-Up. We're joined by Travis Bazzana. And, Travis,
• 1:44:28
  Speaker 11: two weeks in the major leagues, and it seems like
• 1:44:30
  Speaker 11: things are going real well. First home run Friday night, and...
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 11: What are some of the things that you're taking away
• 1:44:36
  Speaker 11: early on in terms of adjusting to the major league
• 1:44:39
  Speaker 11: game and having success?
• 1:44:41
  Speaker 34: Yeah, I felt like my process of the play has
• 1:44:45
  Speaker 34: been pretty good throughout. And yeah, just continuing to find...
• 1:44:49
  Speaker 34: How I can best get to good ball flights and
• 1:44:52
  Speaker 34: hit my share of extra base hits and keep getting
• 1:44:55
  Speaker 34: on base is kind of the plan. But my process
• 1:44:57
  Speaker 34: has been good, and I've been controlling a lot of
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 34: the controllables I would care about. So that's been good
• 1:45:01
  Speaker 34: on the offensive side. I've been taking advantage of my
• 1:45:03
  Speaker 34: opportunities in base running and then on defense just trying
• 1:45:06
  Speaker 34: to continue to work through the best reps I can
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 34: every day. And we're working really hard to make an
• 1:45:15
  Speaker 34: impact out on that side. I've had a couple mishaps,
• 1:45:17
  Speaker 34: but we'll continue to be better.
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 24: So, yeah.
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 11: Up here, how much can you work every day within
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 11: the context of games day after day and wanting to
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 11: be ready for that to really refine your defense as
• 1:45:29
  Speaker 11: best you can?
• 1:45:30
  Speaker 34: Yeah, I mean, that's something that I'm constantly figuring out now,
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 34: you know, is managing the workload and understanding, like, playing
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 34: every day, you have to kind of feel out the
• 1:45:42
  Speaker 34: early work and the reps. So I'm definitely working with
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 34: the staff to figure out... which days, you know, get
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 34: the real extra work and which days got to take
• 1:45:55
  Speaker 34: care of the body for the game and different things.
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 34: We're talking about that constantly and I'm trying to make
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 34: the most of every second of the day to, one,
• 1:46:03
  Speaker 34: be prepared for the game and, two, keep building on
• 1:46:05
  Speaker 34: what I can do on the field.
• 1:46:06
  Speaker 11: A lot of high points already. Certainly getting that first
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 11: home run is exciting. And what were the emotions that
• 1:46:12
  Speaker 11: you felt as you saw the ball leave the ballpark
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 11: and right center?
• 1:46:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was extremely excited.
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 34: Yeah, all the basic good emotions. I was happy, excited,
• 1:46:23
  Speaker 34: and fired up to get that moment. So it was great,
• 1:46:27
  Speaker 34: and hopefully do that many more times.
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 11: We were talking earlier. Your family was here for quite
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 11: a while watching you play, and then they saw your
• 1:46:35
  Speaker 11: first hit, but they've had to go back home to Australia.
• 1:46:38
  Speaker 11: So for them to see you play these night games
• 1:46:41
  Speaker 11: and even day games, what are you talking about in
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 11: terms of time difference and when they watch their baseball
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 11: now to see Travis Bazzano play?
• 1:46:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny.
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 34: My aunties, uncles, grandparents, they all watch almost every game, right?
• 1:46:56
  Speaker 34: And a 6 p.m. game is kind of 10 a.m.
• 1:46:59
  Speaker 34: for most of my family the next day, and... one
• 1:47:04
  Speaker 34: o'clock games a tough one that's like a 3 a.m
• 1:47:07
  Speaker 34: start in sydney so um i know my dad gets
• 1:47:10
  Speaker 34: up at the 3 a.m 1 p.m starts and watches
• 1:47:13
  Speaker 34: um and sometimes some other family members do but not
• 1:47:17
  Speaker 34: every game but uh pretty much every six o'clock is
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 34: at 10 a.m and i'm sure everyone at home is
• 1:47:23
  Speaker 34: trying to watch it at some point so it's an
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 34: everyday thing and they uh they love it i'm sure
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 34: they're just as nervous and excited for everything that happens
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 34: on the field sitting home in Australia.
• 1:47:34
  Speaker 11: They're going to be a family of early risers now
• 1:47:36
  Speaker 11: if they were not already, right?
• 1:47:38
  Speaker 32: Yeah, exactly.
• 1:47:39
  Speaker 34: My parents get up pretty early because the dog wants
• 1:47:41
  Speaker 34: to walk early in the morning at 5 a.m. They're
• 1:47:45
  Speaker 34: usually up pretty early. I think my dad watches half-hour
• 1:47:47
  Speaker 34: games while he's walking the dog. They're used to rising
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 34: pretty early.
• 1:47:53
  Speaker 2: But I don't know about the others. I don't know
• 1:47:56
  Speaker 2: about my brothers.
• 1:47:57
  Speaker 34: I think they're sleeping in.
• 1:47:59
  Speaker 11: Stolen bases you have a bunch early and it might
• 1:48:03
  Speaker 11: be because of of when you were coming up some
• 1:48:06
  Speaker 11: injury issues and things like that but how big a
• 1:48:08
  Speaker 11: part of of your game is the stolen base because
• 1:48:11
  Speaker 11: it certainly has been since you got here.
• 1:48:13
  Speaker 34: Yeah i mean if you look back to kind of
• 1:48:16
  Speaker 34: since i've been in the u.s and obviously professional baseball
• 1:48:18
  Speaker 34: is different to college like in college i stole a
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 34: lot of bases i i had a lot of success
• 1:48:21
  Speaker 34: running um during my time at oregon state.
• 1:48:24
  Speaker 2: And then in pro bowl it's been.
• 1:48:28
  Speaker 34: I think i've i've just tried to pick and choose
• 1:48:31
  Speaker 34: my time to run in minor league baseball it's like
• 1:48:33
  Speaker 34: i wanted to be really efficient on the bases and
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 34: and also just understand start to understand when is good
• 1:48:42
  Speaker 34: time to run, when is not. And like just build,
• 1:48:45
  Speaker 34: I wanted to build my kind of knowledge on my
• 1:48:47
  Speaker 34: base ceiling until I got to.
• 1:48:49
  Speaker 2: The big leagues.
• 1:48:49
  Speaker 34: And now it's like taking every chance to improve the
• 1:48:53
  Speaker 34: chances of the team winning. And, um, I feel like
• 1:48:57
  Speaker 34: I'm in a really good place and I've also had
• 1:48:58
  Speaker 34: a lot of good opportunities to run lately. So, um,
• 1:49:02
  Speaker 34: I mean, I'm not just going to be out there
• 1:49:04
  Speaker 34: running every time I get on, but I'm going to
• 1:49:05
  Speaker 34: continue to try to pick good spots to run and
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 34: add value on that side.
• 1:49:09

• 1:52:19
  Speaker 11: under the weather again and will not be at the
• 1:52:21
  Speaker 11: ballpark here tonight. And Tony, you looked very comfortable yesterday.
• 1:52:26
  Speaker 11: I know you're getting your feet wet as a major
• 1:52:28
  Speaker 11: league manager, but when you've managed at other levels, is
• 1:52:32
  Speaker 11: it that much different?
• 1:52:34
  Speaker 36: Well, it definitely is.
• 1:52:34
  Speaker 18: Different in the major leagues. I mean, it is about winning.
• 1:52:38
  Speaker 18: In the minor leagues, there's other things that come into play.
• 1:52:40
  Speaker 18: You know, this guy cannot pitch back-to-back days, and this guy,
• 1:52:43
  Speaker 18: we need to develop his change-up or whatever.
• 1:52:45
  Speaker 36: There's a lot more development going on.
• 1:52:47
  Speaker 18: So It is different, but at the end of the day,
• 1:52:49
  Speaker 18: it's still baseball, and you've got to let your guys
• 1:52:52
  Speaker 18: go play, and hopefully you come out with a W.
• 1:52:55
  Speaker 11: Well, I know how close that you and Fodor are.
• 1:52:57
  Speaker 11: How do you handle this before, after, and is there
• 1:53:00
  Speaker 11: any contact during a game?
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 18: No contact during the game, but before the game, we
• 1:53:05
  Speaker 18: have our pregame meetings, and this being the first day
• 1:53:08
  Speaker 18: of a series, we have our pre-series meetings, so he's
• 1:53:11
  Speaker 18: chimed in with me on all of it, and then
• 1:53:14
  Speaker 18: we still live together.
• 1:53:15
  Speaker 36: I try to keep my distance right now, but..
• 1:53:18
  Speaker 18: And we'll definitely discuss post-game kind of things that happened.
• 1:53:22
  Speaker 36: But you know what?
• 1:53:23
  Speaker 18: It's one of those things that we have a staff
• 1:53:25
  Speaker 18: that is really good at doing what they do. And
• 1:53:27
  Speaker 18: you let them go do their thing. And then you
• 1:53:29
  Speaker 18: let your players go play.
• 1:53:30
  Speaker 36: And hopefully they can perform like you'd like them to.
• 1:53:33
  Speaker 11: Let's go back to yesterday for just a couple of moments.
• 1:53:35
  Speaker 11: A couple of debuts. One, the major league debut of
• 1:53:38
  Speaker 11: Franco Aliman, who's had so much potential. He's had some setbacks.
• 1:53:43
  Speaker 11: but how about the effort he gave you yesterday? Did
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 11: you see something yesterday? Maybe you weren't aware of, or
• 1:53:50
  Speaker 11: was he coming as advertised?
• 1:53:52
  Speaker 2: Um, pretty much as advertised.
• 1:53:54
  Speaker 18: He knows he has a good heater and he's going
• 1:53:55
  Speaker 18: to use it and he's going to come at you.
• 1:53:57
  Speaker 18: And he believes it's better than any hitter that he's
• 1:53:59
  Speaker 18: going to face and talking to him before the game,
• 1:54:01
  Speaker 18: during batting practice, he was just saying how he had
• 1:54:03
  Speaker 18: some family here and, you know, it's just crazy that
• 1:54:05
  Speaker 18: he put in so much work and now he's finally
• 1:54:08
  Speaker 18: here and, but now it's time to go. And, um,
• 1:54:11
  Speaker 18: you know, when he came out of the game after
• 1:54:12
  Speaker 18: the second inning, the smile on his face, man, it
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 18: just said it all. I was so proud of him
• 1:54:16
  Speaker 18: and just happy for the kid. You know, you get
• 1:54:19
  Speaker 18: your chance and you pitch well. And, uh, but now
• 1:54:22
  Speaker 18: the hard work begins for him. You know, it's hard
• 1:54:24
  Speaker 18: to get to the big leagues and it's harder to stick. And,
• 1:54:27
  Speaker 18: but what he did last night was a pretty impressive
• 1:54:29
  Speaker 18: and you can see that heater's going to play. And
• 1:54:32
  Speaker 18: if he's attacking his own like that, he can, um,
• 1:54:35
  Speaker 18: really help us. And, um, so that was really exciting
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 18: to watch and just, Just to see that smile on
• 1:54:40
  Speaker 18: his face was really gratifying.
• 1:54:41
  Speaker 11: Okay, also it was the Cleveland debut of Patrick Bailey.
• 1:54:45
  Speaker 11: First off, Tony, I can't imagine trying to learn a
• 1:54:49
  Speaker 11: staff in 24 hours. I know that's virtually impossible. But
• 1:54:54
  Speaker 11: how is he going about this? How do you get
• 1:54:56
  Speaker 11: him up to game speed when you're talking about 13
• 1:55:00
  Speaker 11: different pitchers?
• 1:55:01
  Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean, luckily we have a really good pitching
• 1:55:04
  Speaker 18: department here and our pitching coaches are really good.
• 1:55:07
  Speaker 36: At what they do.
• 1:55:08
  Speaker 18: And then you look at David and Hedgie, they're very
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 18: good and very knowledgeable about our guys.
• 1:55:13
  Speaker 36: They know him as well as anybody.
• 1:55:14
  Speaker 18: So he's just been diving in with Carl and BG
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 18: and our pitching guys and Caleb with the bullpen guys
• 1:55:21
  Speaker 18: just to learn them. And then watching video, he'll start
• 1:55:24
  Speaker 18: to catch some pens, I'm sure, here and there throughout.
• 1:55:26
  Speaker 36: The next week.
• 1:55:28
  Speaker 18: But Patty knows the game and he can get behind
• 1:55:32
  Speaker 18: there and see what a guy has and read the
• 1:55:34
  Speaker 18: game and read the stuff that's coming out of the
• 1:55:36
  Speaker 18: pitcher's hand, but we do a really good job with
• 1:55:38
  Speaker 18: game planning. We do a really good job of preparing,
• 1:55:41
  Speaker 18: and he seems like he fits right in with that.
• 1:55:43
  Speaker 18: Just having our first catchers meeting today, pre-series, you would
• 1:55:47
  Speaker 18: not have known that it was his first time in
• 1:55:48
  Speaker 18: that meeting with us. He's very good at what he does,
• 1:55:51
  Speaker 18: and I think the combination of him and Hedgie and
• 1:55:53
  Speaker 18: David together, they're going to help each other out, and
• 1:55:56
  Speaker 18: I'm not worried at all.
• 1:55:57
  Speaker 11: How come David Frye tonight behind the play catching Joey Cantillo?
• 1:56:01
  Speaker 18: Yeah, you know, David's He's done a really good job
• 1:56:04
  Speaker 18: of coming in some late games and catching well. He
• 1:56:06
  Speaker 18: came in yesterday, had an unbelievable block. We've had him
• 1:56:09
  Speaker 18: lined up to catch a couple times, and weather permitting
• 1:56:12
  Speaker 18: kind of screwed things up. He lines up well with Joey,
• 1:56:15
  Speaker 18: knows Joey well. He's just lined up for us, and
• 1:56:19
  Speaker 18: they have a lefty in the pen, and they're doing
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 18: a bullpen day today.
• 1:56:22
  Speaker 36: So all those things considered. in the league. And David's
• 1:56:30
  Speaker 36: part of that and he's going to go out and
• 1:56:32
  Speaker 36: catch a great game. I'm sure.
• 1:56:34
  Speaker 2: And of course, open games, the most difficult to manage.
• 1:56:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I know.
• 1:56:40
  Speaker 36: It's giving them a hard time.
• 1:56:40
  Speaker 2: I said, are you sick?
• 1:56:41
  Speaker 36: Are you just trying to avoid these?
• 1:56:42
  Speaker 18: No, we all know Steven and how big of a
• 1:56:45
  Speaker 18: competitor he is and he hates to be gone, you know,
• 1:56:48
  Speaker 18: but yeah, that's why you just lean on your staff
• 1:56:50
  Speaker 18: behind you. Make sure that they're giving you the info
• 1:56:52
  Speaker 18: and make sure I have the info and I'm up
• 1:56:54
  Speaker 18: to date on what we're doing and have a good
• 1:56:56
  Speaker 18: game plan going into where, Nothing speeds up on you.
• 1:57:00
  Speaker 18: But again, at the end of the day, like we say,
• 1:57:02
  Speaker 18: the guy's got to go out and play, and hopefully
• 1:57:04
  Speaker 18: we can score some runs and not have to make
• 1:57:05
  Speaker 18: too many decisions.
• 1:57:06
  Speaker 11: That's bench coach and acting manager tonight, Tony Arnerich. This
• 1:57:10
  Speaker 11: is Tom Hamilton, the manager's show brought to you by KeyBank,

  Speaker 27: I don't know.
• 2:04:26
  Speaker 11: From Progressive Field in downtown Cleveland, Ohio, it is game
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 11: number 43. Tonight, the Cleveland Guardians and the Los Angeles
• 2:04:37
  Speaker 11: Angels of Anaheim will open up a three-game series tonight,
• 2:04:42
  Speaker 11: tomorrow night. and then a day game on Wednesday. Hi again, everybody.
• 2:04:47
  Speaker 11: This is Tom Hamilton, along with Jim Rosenhouse and Brian Motze,
• 2:04:53
  Speaker 11: and glad you could join us from the frozen shores
• 2:04:56
  Speaker 11: of Lake Erie. My goodness, it feels like the end
• 2:05:01
  Speaker 11: of March or the first week in April. It is
• 2:05:04
  Speaker 11: frigid down here with, obviously, Lake Erie still very cold,
• 2:05:10
  Speaker 11: the water at this time of year, and That wind
• 2:05:12
  Speaker 11: is coming off the lake, and you know what that does.
• 2:05:15
  Speaker 11: It drops the temperature here in downtown Cleveland anywhere from
• 2:05:19
  Speaker 11: 8 to 10 degrees from where it is elsewhere in
• 2:05:23
  Speaker 11: the city. And boy, oh boy, it is a cold
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 11: one tonight. Not many people are going to see it.
• 2:05:30
  Speaker 11: As the Guardians come in, still in first place, they
• 2:05:34
  Speaker 11: are the only team 500 or better in the Central
• 2:05:38
  Speaker 11: at 21-21. Game ahead of the White Sox, but last
• 2:05:42
  Speaker 11: place Minnesota is only two and a half out. The Angels, well,
• 2:05:46
  Speaker 11: right now they're the worst team in the American League.
• 2:05:49
  Speaker 11: The Angels just seems like they never get better. It's
• 2:05:54
  Speaker 11: incredible how nothing ever changes. It's like Groundhog Day when
• 2:05:59
  Speaker 11: it comes to the Angels. They have a record of 16-25,
• 2:06:04
  Speaker 11: worst record now in the American League. and they are
• 2:06:08
  Speaker 11: five and a half games behind the Athletics in last
• 2:06:12
  Speaker 11: place in the American League's Western Division. And every year
• 2:06:17
  Speaker 11: we hear about how things are going to get better, and, well,
• 2:06:21
  Speaker 11: they never do. It's just incredible how they just can't
• 2:06:25
  Speaker 11: seem to get out of this rut. And for the Angels,
• 2:06:30
  Speaker 11: it's got to be getting old. But the good news
• 2:06:32
  Speaker 11: for them is they at least have Mike Trout, Back
• 2:06:37
  Speaker 11: in the lineup as Mike Trout, who has for years
• 2:06:42
  Speaker 11: been as good as any player in the game, and
• 2:06:45
  Speaker 11: some people will tell you as good as any player
• 2:06:48
  Speaker 11: that they've ever seen play the game. He's just been
• 2:06:52
  Speaker 11: really in a tough spot when it comes to injuries,
• 2:06:56
  Speaker 11: but not now. He is finally healthy. He is swinging
• 2:07:00
  Speaker 11: the bat well, and man, the game of baseball is
• 2:07:03
  Speaker 11: better when somebody like Mike Trout is able to play,
• 2:07:08
  Speaker 11: and he'll be matched up in this series against another
• 2:07:12
  Speaker 11: future Hall of Famer in Jose Ramirez. Man, that makes
• 2:07:16
  Speaker 11: this series worth whatever the cost of the ticket might
• 2:07:20
  Speaker 11: be for wherever you're sitting, because not often can you say,
• 2:07:25
  Speaker 11: we are going to see, to no doubt about it,
• 2:07:28
  Speaker 11: future Hall of Famers play the next three days when
• 2:07:32
  Speaker 11: you talk about Mike Trout and you talk about Jose Ramirez.
• 2:07:36
  Speaker 11: For the rest of the Angels, well, they have not
• 2:07:40
  Speaker 11: now had a winning season since 2015. Just think of that.
• 2:07:46
  Speaker 11: They have gone 10 consecutive seasons without having a winning season.
• 2:07:53
  Speaker 11: So talk about playoffs. They're not even talking about playoffs.
• 2:07:58
  Speaker 11: They haven't even been able to. have a winning campaign
• 2:08:02
  Speaker 11: and that's what they're trying to overcome but boy things
• 2:08:05
  Speaker 11: aren't going very well right now for the angels as
• 2:08:09
  Speaker 11: they are mired with this record of 16 and 25
• 2:08:12
  Speaker 11: and It's even worse if you take out Jose Soriano,
• 2:08:18
  Speaker 11: who pitched yesterday in Toronto and has been one of
• 2:08:22
  Speaker 11: the game's best pitchers so far this year. Jonathan Parra
• 2:08:27
  Speaker 11: is going to be the home plate umpire. Jeremy Rehak
• 2:08:30
  Speaker 11: at first. Dan Iasonia, the crew chief, at second. Adam Beck,
• 2:08:34
  Speaker 11: the third base umpire. 325 down the lines, 370 to
• 2:08:37
  Speaker 11: left center, 375 to right center, 400 to dead center.
• 2:08:43
  Speaker 11: the 19-foot wall from the left field corner to center,
• 2:08:46
  Speaker 11: 9-foot wall from center to the right field corner. 35,000
• 2:08:52
  Speaker 11: is what Progressive Field now seats, all dark blue seats,
• 2:08:56
  Speaker 11: three decks starting in right center, working their way around
• 2:09:00
  Speaker 11: the right field foul pole to home plate, two decks
• 2:09:03
  Speaker 11: on the third base side, and acres of bleacher seats
• 2:09:06
  Speaker 11: in left center and center field. Winds are blowing in,
• 2:09:12
  Speaker 11: and they are significant. It is not going to be
• 2:09:15
  Speaker 11: easy to get one out of here tonight. We will
• 2:09:18
  Speaker 11: play this game under sunny skies, which makes it even
• 2:09:22
  Speaker 11: tougher for the hitters here in the early innings because
• 2:09:26
  Speaker 11: you're dealing with shadows in the home plate area of
• 2:09:29
  Speaker 11: the pitcher's mound, and then sunshine right behind the pitcher's
• 2:09:34
  Speaker 11: mound here at the outset. Joey Cantillo's on the hill
• 2:09:39
  Speaker 11: tonight for Cleveland. The left-hander is 6'4, 220, now 27
• 2:09:45
  Speaker 11: years of age. Joey Cantillo, fastball in the low 90s,
• 2:09:49
  Speaker 11: curve slider, and one of the best change-ups in the
• 2:09:53
  Speaker 11: game of baseball. Cantillo has only faced the Angels one
• 2:09:58
  Speaker 11: other time, worked a couple of innings in relief. This
• 2:10:02
  Speaker 11: is his first ever start against the Angels. He'll face
• 2:10:06
  Speaker 11: eight right-handed hitters, starting with the shortstop, Zach Netto. Cantelo
• 2:10:12
  Speaker 11: works from the set position, third base side of the rubber,
• 2:10:15
  Speaker 11: and tonight's first pitch is way high ball one, and
• 2:10:20
  Speaker 11: we're underway here at the corner of Carnegie and Ontario.
• 2:10:27
  Speaker 11: 53 degrees, the game time temp feels like about 40.
• 2:10:33
  Speaker 11: Now the 1-0 pitch to Netto. And he sends one
• 2:10:37
  Speaker 11: high in the air to first. That's not going anywhere.
• 2:10:41
  Speaker 11: Near the foul line, Manzardo. And Cleveland's first baseman makes
• 2:10:46
  Speaker 11: the catch. And Netto pops up to first on two
• 2:10:49
  Speaker 11: pitches to start tonight's ballgame. Stephen Kwan is in left.
• 2:10:54
  Speaker 11: Daniel Schneeman in center. And Chase DeLauder is in right.
• 2:10:59
  Speaker 11: Kyle Manzardo at first. Travis Pisano at second. Brian Rocchio
• 2:11:03
  Speaker 11: at short. Jose Ramirez at third and David Fry gets
• 2:11:07
  Speaker 11: a rare start behind the plate. Here's Mike Trout. The
• 2:11:13
  Speaker 11: center fielder digs in. Right handed hitter takes a called strike.
• 2:11:18
  Speaker 11: Mike Trout batting 248. Sixth in the league in homers 11.
• 2:11:23
  Speaker 11: 23 RBIs. Fifth in the league in OPS at 932.
• 2:11:28
  Speaker 11: The 0-1 Swing and a weak ground ball to third.
• 2:11:35
  Speaker 11: Ramirez slides to his left. Gloves throws. Two up, two down.
• 2:11:39
  Speaker 11: That'll bring up Vaughn Grissom. Third baseman, right-handed hitter. A
• 2:11:44
  Speaker 11: lot of times when you load up a lineup like
• 2:11:48
  Speaker 11: this against Joey Cantillo with right-handed bats, that'll really favor
• 2:11:53
  Speaker 11: Joey Cantillo in some ways because that makes that changeup
• 2:11:56
  Speaker 11: of his even more effective down and away. And Brian Anderson,
• 2:12:02
  Speaker 11: who pitched here in Cleveland and was a left-hander with
• 2:12:06
  Speaker 11: a great changeup, would talk about that. Vaughn Grissom taking
• 2:12:10
  Speaker 11: a strike, fastball inside corner. Brian always felt like, hey,
• 2:12:15
  Speaker 11: load up the lineup with right-handed hitters because then I
• 2:12:18
  Speaker 11: get into a rhythm. I get into the arm slot
• 2:12:21
  Speaker 11: in the location I want, and you can really get
• 2:12:24
  Speaker 11: on a roll as a pitcher. The pitch up high.
• 2:12:28
  Speaker 11: Ryan Anderson always felt it was tougher when he faced
• 2:12:31
  Speaker 11: a lineup that had left-handed hitters mixed in. We'll see
• 2:12:36
  Speaker 11: how it goes for Joey Cantillo tonight. Two down, nobody on,
• 2:12:41
  Speaker 11: no score, the pitch. And it's waved at. Good curveball.
• 2:12:45
  Speaker 11: Cantillo in eight starts, two wins, a loss. ERA 343.
• 2:12:50
  Speaker 11: Problem for him is length. Five innings to start, that's
• 2:12:54
  Speaker 11: been it. Eight strikeouts, four walks per nine. One of
• 2:12:58
  Speaker 11: the most unhittable change-ups in the game. The pitch swung on,
• 2:13:02
  Speaker 11: socked high in the air to left. That won't go anywhere.
• 2:13:05
  Speaker 11: Stephen Kwan coming in toward the line. Makes the catch.
• 2:13:09
  Speaker 11: And what a first inning. All it took was eight
• 2:13:12
  Speaker 11: pitches for Joey Cantillo to retire the Angels with the
• 2:13:16
  Speaker 11: Guardians coming to bat.
• 2:13:18

• 2:15:15
  Speaker 11: Well, it's another bullpen game that Cleveland will be dealing
• 2:15:19
  Speaker 11: with as reliever and left-hander Brent Suter starts it off.
• 2:15:25
  Speaker 11: And it's a first pitch strike to Stephen Kwan. The
• 2:15:31
  Speaker 11: next delivery is up high. Nobody works any quicker than Suter.
• 2:15:35
  Speaker 11: Last year was with the Cincinnati Reds. With the Angels
• 2:15:40
  Speaker 11: now this season. The pitch and it missed to Kwon.
• 2:15:44
  Speaker 11: 2-1 to count. And again this guy works as quickly
• 2:15:48
  Speaker 11: as anybody in the game. Suter doesn't throw hard. Fastball
• 2:15:54
  Speaker 11: sinker slider change. The kick and the pitch up and in.
• 2:15:58
  Speaker 11: Boy that got near the head and yanking himself out
• 2:16:02
  Speaker 11: of the way just in time as Stephen Kwon and
• 2:16:08
  Speaker 11: Stephen Kwan with a 3-1 count. This is a good sign.
• 2:16:11
  Speaker 11: He's had trouble getting on base, period. The pitch to him.
• 2:16:15
  Speaker 11: In there, a strike. Full count. Suter in 15 games.
• 2:16:20
  Speaker 11: A win and a loss. ERA 4-0-3. The kick and
• 2:16:25
  Speaker 11: the pitch. Kwan bangs one on the ground to the
• 2:16:28
  Speaker 11: second baseman. Barraza, easy play. Throws over and Suter comes
• 2:16:32
  Speaker 11: back to get Kwan after he fell behind 3-1. Here
• 2:16:38
  Speaker 11: Here's Chase DeLauder. Now the rookie has been easily Cleveland's
• 2:16:45
  Speaker 11: best hitter. Batting 299, team high six homers, team high
• 2:16:51
  Speaker 11: 25 RBIs, team high OPS. DeLauder taking a called strike.
• 2:17:01
  Speaker 11: DeLauder's OPS now 9-0-1. The next pitch, breaking ball outside,
• 2:17:11
  Speaker 11: one and one. Suter is a Cincinnati native. Now 36
• 2:17:20
  Speaker 11: years of age. He deals, and DeLauder swings, hits a
• 2:17:27
  Speaker 11: weak bouncer to first, handled by Chanel, and Shanawell, excuse me,
• 2:17:32
  Speaker 11: with a flip to Suter covering, two downs. That'll bring
• 2:17:37
  Speaker 11: up Jose Ramirez, switch hitter. He will bat right-handed. Boy,
• 2:17:42
  Speaker 11: we're seeing some people we haven't seen before in the
• 2:17:46
  Speaker 11: lineup here tonight. The outfield tonight has Bryce Teodosio in left,
• 2:17:57
  Speaker 11: Mike Trout in center, Joe Adele in right. Ramirez winds
• 2:18:00
  Speaker 11: one to left and a sliding catch by Teodosio. And
• 2:18:04
  Speaker 11: a hard hit ball, but Cleveland goes in a hurry
• 2:18:07
  Speaker 11: and They had fits with the bullpen game yesterday facing Minnesota,
• 2:18:12
  Speaker 11: and they have a quick 1-2-3 first, no score after one.
• 2:18:17
  Speaker 2: Drug disposal.
• 2:18:19
  Speaker 8: News Radio 570 WKBN, Youngstown.
• 2:18:28
  Speaker 11: We go now to the second inning. Scoreless here in
• 2:18:30
  Speaker 11: downtown Cleveland. Left-hander Joey Cantillo sets, delivers, and Jorge Soler
• 2:18:38
  Speaker 11: The DH takes a first-pitch strike. Solaire, fifth in the
• 2:18:44
  Speaker 11: league in runs batted in with 28. The 0-1 pitch
• 2:18:49
  Speaker 11: to the slugging right-handed DH. Waved at 0-2. Solaire batting 226,
• 2:18:55
  Speaker 11: eight homers. The Angels are fifth in the league in
• 2:18:59
  Speaker 11: runs scored, not quite four and a half a game.
• 2:19:03
  Speaker 11: Fourth in the league in home runs, but they strike
• 2:19:06
  Speaker 11: out more than any team in the AL. The pitch,
• 2:19:09
  Speaker 11: swing and a foul upstairs, 0-2. The Angels offensively are
• 2:19:16
  Speaker 11: so much better on the road than they are at home,
• 2:19:19
  Speaker 11: which makes no sense. They never worry about the weather.
• 2:19:22
  Speaker 11: It's always the same in Anaheim. Now the 0-2. Outside, 1-2.
• 2:19:29
  Speaker 11: They don't play many games like this. 53 degrees, feels
• 2:19:33
  Speaker 11: like 40, wind blowing in. No score, second inning. Cantillo's ready.
• 2:19:41
  Speaker 11: The native of Honolulu lets it fly, and it's down
• 2:19:44
  Speaker 11: and in, 2-2. But the Angels, for whatever reason, on
• 2:19:54
  Speaker 11: the road, average almost two runs a game more than
• 2:19:59
  Speaker 11: at home. The 2-2. Bullseye took a fastball, guessing changeup,
• 2:20:05
  Speaker 11: I'm guessing. Two guesses doesn't equal a right, but Soler
• 2:20:12
  Speaker 11: is out number one, strikeout number one. The Angels have
• 2:20:17
  Speaker 11: hit 36 home runs on the road, 14 at home,
• 2:20:22
  Speaker 11: which is why they average over five runs a game
• 2:20:26
  Speaker 11: on the road and a little over three runs a
• 2:20:28
  Speaker 11: game at home. Here's Joe Adele, the right fielder. The
• 2:20:32
  Speaker 11: pitch to him down low. How about a game he
• 2:20:34
  Speaker 11: had early this year? where he robbed three home runs
• 2:20:43
  Speaker 11: in the same game. Took away three home runs in
• 2:20:46
  Speaker 11: the same game in right field. Cuts and misses at
• 2:20:50
  Speaker 11: a breaking ball down in the dirt.
• 2:20:51
  Speaker 22: One and one.
• 2:20:52
  Speaker 11: I wonder if the hitters are having trouble here with
• 2:20:55
  Speaker 11: the shadows and the sunshine here with this 6-10 start.
• 2:21:00
  Speaker 11: Guys don't look like they're picking spin up very well
• 2:21:03
  Speaker 11: here in the early going. Now the one to one.
• 2:21:07
  Speaker 11: And he missed down low with a changeup, 2-1. Odell
• 2:21:11
  Speaker 11: has never been known as a glove man. That's how
• 2:21:14
  Speaker 11: good he's gotten defensively. That was an aberration. But he
• 2:21:18
  Speaker 11: has worked hard on his defense to make three home
• 2:21:21
  Speaker 11: run robbing catches in one game. The pitch, swung on,
• 2:21:25
  Speaker 11: two hopper to third. Ramirez backs up, gloves, throws, two down.
• 2:21:30
  Speaker 11: That'll bring up the only left-handed bat in the lineup,
• 2:21:33
  Speaker 11: Nolan Shanawell. Heard from our good friend Tyler Kepner, one
• 2:21:38
  Speaker 11: of the best baseball writers in America, a future Hall
• 2:21:41
  Speaker 11: of Famer. Now does such a great job for the Athletic. Boy,
• 2:21:45
  Speaker 11: the Athletic is such a great, I don't know what
• 2:21:50
  Speaker 11: you call it anymore, periodical to read. Get a subscription online.
• 2:21:54
  Speaker 11: The Athletic has some of the best writers, including Tyler Kepner,
• 2:21:59
  Speaker 11: our own Zach Meisel. The pitch swung on, and Shaunawell
• 2:22:03
  Speaker 11: ropes a single to center. Well, there you are. The
• 2:22:06
  Speaker 11: only left-handed bat in the lineup. And he smokes a
• 2:22:09
  Speaker 11: single to center, does Nolan Shonawell. And Tyler Kepner was saying,
• 2:22:16
  Speaker 11: Brent Suter, the starter tonight for the Angels, who is
• 2:22:20
  Speaker 11: a graduate of Harvard, is the first Harvard graduate to
• 2:22:26
  Speaker 11: ever play more than 10 years in the major leagues.
• 2:22:33
  Speaker 11: Thank you, Tyler. Here's Oswald Peraza taking high. First off,
• 2:22:38
  Speaker 11: graduating from Harvard is a milestone. And Brent Suter got
• 2:22:42
  Speaker 11: his degree from Harvard in environmental science and public policy.
• 2:22:53
  Speaker 11: The pitch is high, 2-0.
• 2:22:55
  Speaker 2: His dad..
• 2:22:58
  Speaker 11: Mike Suter was a safety on Penn State's National Championship
• 2:23:02
  Speaker 11: football team in 1982.
• 2:23:03
  Speaker 2: And his.
• 2:23:06
  Speaker 11: Mom Shirley was a four-year letter winner in swimming at
• 2:23:10
  Speaker 11: Penn State. The pitch swung on and missed, 2-1 the count.
• 2:23:15
  Speaker 11: And then Brent goes to Harvard, gets a degree, and
• 2:23:18
  Speaker 11: as Tyler Kepner was saying, the first ever from Harvard
• 2:23:22
  Speaker 11: to play 10 years or.
• 2:23:23
  Speaker 2: More in the big leagues. That's amazing.
• 2:23:27
  Speaker 11: No score, the 2-1 delivery, and Peraza takes up high
• 2:23:31
  Speaker 11: a ball. And you can read Tyler in the Athletic.
• 2:23:35
  Speaker 11: He's written a lot of great books as well. Wrote
• 2:23:39
  Speaker 11: the inside history of the Yankees and the Red Sox.
• 2:23:41
  Speaker 11: Go to Amazon, you can find all of his books.
• 2:23:44
  Speaker 11: Wrote a great book on Derek Jeter. The 2-2, I
• 2:23:50
  Speaker 11: beg your pardon, the 3-1 is a called strike on
• 2:23:54
  Speaker 11: the inside corner. But Tyler's written a lot of great
• 2:23:57
  Speaker 11: baseball books. You can find them on Amazon and other places.
• 2:24:04
  Speaker 11: Good people, Tyler Kepner. Thank you, Tyler. And a great
• 2:24:07
  Speaker 11: nugget on Brent Suter. Right now, Cleveland might wish Brent
• 2:24:11
  Speaker 11: was getting a Ph.D. at Harvard, the way he looked
• 2:24:14
  Speaker 11: in the first inning. Now the 3-2 delivery to Peraza.
• 2:24:19
  Speaker 11: And a little low evidently. No challenge. So it's a walk.
• 2:24:24
  Speaker 11: Peraza to first. Shanawell to second. This all comes after
• 2:24:29
  Speaker 11: two men were out. And Sebastian Rivero to the plate. Rivero.
• 2:24:43
  Speaker 2: There's Logan Ohapi.
• 2:24:44
  Speaker 11: Their outstanding catcher. He's on the injured list. They've got
• 2:24:48
  Speaker 11: a A lot of folks banged up. Right-handed batter, and
• 2:24:52
  Speaker 11: he hits a weak bouncer to third foul. Angels always
• 2:24:59
  Speaker 11: seem to have a lot of injuries, a lot of
• 2:25:01
  Speaker 11: underperforming people that have been paid a lot of money
• 2:25:05
  Speaker 11: by Artie Marino. And it just seems like it's rinse
• 2:25:11
  Speaker 11: and repeat as far as the results on the field.
• 2:25:15
  Speaker 11: The pitch... And it's in their strike, 0-2. It's not
• 2:25:19
  Speaker 11: like they're not trying. Whatever they're doing, though, for whatever reason,
• 2:25:25
  Speaker 11: when you've gone 10 seasons and counting without a winning
• 2:25:30
  Speaker 11: record with the kind of money they have spent, you're like,
• 2:25:34
  Speaker 11: what the heck is the deal? I think the confounding
• 2:25:37
  Speaker 11: seasons were when they had Otani and Trout together. The pitch.
• 2:25:41
  Speaker 11: And it's down low, one ball, two strikes. I know
• 2:25:44
  Speaker 11: you need more than that, but boy, you would think.
• 2:25:46
  Speaker 11: Marathon here to keep you and your team fueled all
• 2:25:49
  Speaker 11: summer long. Marathon driven together. Yeah, you don't win with
• 2:25:55
  Speaker 11: Otani and Trout. For a while it was pitching. Now
• 2:25:59
  Speaker 11: it seems like it's everything. Now the one-two delivery. Cantillo firing.
• 2:26:07
  Speaker 11: And it's swung on. Banged on the ground to third.
• 2:26:09
  Speaker 11: Ramirez goes to second.
• 2:26:11
  Speaker 2: Not in time!
• 2:26:13
  Speaker 11: Oh, what hustle by Peraza! Ramirez trying to get the
• 2:26:20
  Speaker 11: inning ending force at second and Peraza, talk about hustling,
• 2:26:26
  Speaker 11: beat the throw by Ramirez and Cleveland will not challenge
• 2:26:30
  Speaker 11: the call. Wow, give that all to the hustle of Peraza.
• 2:26:40
  Speaker 11: Rookie manager Kurt Suzuki, long time Angel League catcher, played
• 2:26:45
  Speaker 11: with the Angels. This club may not be winning, but
• 2:26:49
  Speaker 11: they're obviously still playing hard. Bases loaded now, two down,
• 2:26:54
  Speaker 11: and Peraza's up limping. So the trainer and the manager, Suzuki,
• 2:26:59
  Speaker 11: heading out there. I do wonder, though, Rosie, and it's
• 2:27:05
  Speaker 11: not for me, and I'm sure not judging the Angels organization.
• 2:27:10
  Speaker 11: We're just stating the facts. They spend money. They sign
• 2:27:14
  Speaker 11: free agents. They wanted to keep Otani, so on, so forth.
• 2:27:20
  Speaker 11: They've drafted decently. A lot of first-round picks get to
• 2:27:24
  Speaker 11: the big leagues in a hurry. Whether that's good or
• 2:27:26
  Speaker 11: bad is always open to conjecture. But how do you
• 2:27:31
  Speaker 11: hire a rookie manager and give them a one-year contract?
• 2:27:34
  Speaker 11: What does that say? Boy, it was fascinating, and I
• 2:27:37
  Speaker 11: remember in the offseason, it looked like Albert Pujols was
• 2:27:41
  Speaker 11: going to be the Angels manager for a little while there,
• 2:27:44
  Speaker 11: and who knows how he.
• 2:27:46
  Speaker 6: Would have been.
• 2:27:46
  Speaker 11: Maybe he heard the contract terms. Maybe they couldn't quite
• 2:27:50
  Speaker 11: agree on the one-year deal, but it is fascinating, and
• 2:27:56
  Speaker 11: He had been in the organization as a special assistant,
• 2:27:59
  Speaker 11: but still a one-year deal for any manager usually is
• 2:28:03
  Speaker 11: not how it's done and doesn't exude confidence in that
• 2:28:07
  Speaker 11: clubhouse if things start going south. Sounds like my prom dates.
• 2:28:14
  Speaker 11: When she said, can we just see how the first
• 2:28:16
  Speaker 11: hour goes and then I can reconsider. I didn't mean
• 2:28:20
  Speaker 11: to bring that up for you. Sorry, I've been scarred.
• 2:28:25
  Speaker 11: Everybody's okay. Bases loaded, two down. Here's Bryce Teodosio taking
• 2:28:32
  Speaker 11: a first pitch strike. Right-handed hitting left fielder. Let's see
• 2:28:35
  Speaker 11: if Joey Cantillo can pick up Jose Ramirez, who had
• 2:28:39
  Speaker 11: time to get Rivero over at first, but tried to
• 2:28:43
  Speaker 11: get the forced end the inning at second and didn't.
• 2:28:46
  Speaker 11: The pitch swung on a blooper on the infield. First
• 2:28:49
  Speaker 11: base side. Foul ground caught by Kyle Manzardo. Oh, what
• 2:28:53
  Speaker 11: a great job by Cantillo to work out of it.
• 2:28:57
  Speaker 11: Angels leave them loaded. No score in the middle of
• 2:29:00

  Speaker 11: Reese Hoskins leads off second inning of work and a
• 2:31:02
  Speaker 11: strike from Brent Suter. He only made 10 pitches in
• 2:31:05
  Speaker 11: the first inning. Bullpen game for the Angels. Hoskins DH-ing,
• 2:31:09
  Speaker 11: no score. And he fouls it back, 0-2. Terrence Owens
• 2:31:14
  Speaker 11: of Richmond Heights. Tonight's Conrad score for win for new
• 2:31:19
  Speaker 11: tires contestant. It'd be nice if Brent Suter would give
• 2:31:23
  Speaker 11: us a chance to get these reads in.
• 2:31:25
  Speaker 2: The 0-2.
• 2:31:27
  Speaker 11: Swing and a miss.
• 2:31:28
  Speaker 2: What a changeup.
• 2:31:28
  Speaker 11: First strikeout. Hoskins out number one here in the second inning.
• 2:31:34
  Speaker 11: Terrence Owens of Richmond Heights trying to win the four

• 2:31:41
  Speaker 11: Visit econrads.com to enter. Not only is Brent Suter a
• 2:31:48
  Speaker 11: longtime major leaguer, the pitch, breaking ball low, a Harvard grad,
• 2:31:56
  Speaker 11: He's one of the funniest impressionists in the game. The pitch,
• 2:32:02
  Speaker 11: a swing and a miss. He's a different definition of
• 2:32:07
  Speaker 11: a five-tool player. He can even do Tito and did
• 2:32:12
  Speaker 11: him last year for the Reds. The pitch, waved at. Boy,
• 2:32:15
  Speaker 11: he had Manzardo kind of double clutching at that slider.
• 2:32:22
  Speaker 11: And you know who laughed the hardest at Tito's impression? Tito. Boy,
• 2:32:29
  Speaker 11: how many years did we see Suter dominate Cleveland in
• 2:32:32
  Speaker 11: the Milwaukee bullpen? Manzardo cuts and foul tips one. He
• 2:32:37
  Speaker 11: just gives you that different look from the side. Perky jerky,
• 2:32:41
  Speaker 11: quick delivery. Not quite sidearm, but that low three-quarter arm slot.
• 2:32:46
  Speaker 11: A big guy, 6'4, 225. Pitches the slider up. Looks
• 2:32:52
  Speaker 11: like he should throw really hard. He's just funky enough
• 2:32:56
  Speaker 11: and has enough Movement, the pitch, a swing and a
• 2:33:01
  Speaker 11: foul right side. Still a 2-2 count. Started his career
• 2:33:06
  Speaker 11: in Milwaukee back in 2016. Then Colorado, Cincinnati, now Anaheim.
• 2:33:14
  Speaker 11: The 2-2 strike called. Well, it wasn't called. It should
• 2:33:19
  Speaker 11: have been. Angels are going to challenge the call. That
• 2:33:22
  Speaker 11: looked like a fastball on the outside corner for strike three.
• 2:33:25
  Speaker 11: Survey says it was low. I beg your pardon, Jonathan Parra.
• 2:33:32
  Speaker 11: Home plate umpire right. Angels wrong. They're down to one
• 2:33:36
  Speaker 11: challenge the rest of the night. And Manzardo has life
• 2:33:40
  Speaker 11: at three and two. The kick in the pitch. Swung on.
• 2:33:44
  Speaker 11: Broken bat flare. It's going to get down into right center.
• 2:33:47
  Speaker 11: A bloop base hit. The barrel of the bat almost
• 2:33:51
  Speaker 11: got to the outfield. Almost got as far as the ball.
• 2:33:54
  Speaker 11: Manzardo says, it's a line drive in my book. He
• 2:33:58
  Speaker 11: had enough atom balls early this year. And you'll never
• 2:34:03
  Speaker 11: convince a hitter that the line drives and the bloopers
• 2:34:08
  Speaker 11: even out. But there's one. And Cleveland's got a one-out
• 2:34:13
  Speaker 11: base runner in this scoreless second inning. And here's David
• 2:34:18
  Speaker 11: Frye getting a chance to start tonight behind the plate.
• 2:34:21
  Speaker 11: A rare start for David Frye. Catching.
• 2:34:26
  Speaker 2: Obviously..
• 2:34:28
  Speaker 11: It's going to be tougher and tougher for him to
• 2:34:30
  Speaker 11: catch now with the acquisition of Patrick Bailey. The pitch,
• 2:34:34
  Speaker 11: and it's in there, a strike. David Fry, Austin Hedges,
• 2:34:40
  Speaker 11: Patrick Bailey. Now three right-handed hitting catchers for Cleveland. Fry batting. 250,
• 2:34:48
  Speaker 11: three homers, six RBIs, swings and misses at the changeup,
• 2:34:53
  Speaker 11: 77 miles per hour. 0-2 the count. Suter leans in
• 2:35:04
  Speaker 11: from the side. First base side of the slab. Here
• 2:35:07
  Speaker 11: it comes. Up high. Speaking of relievers, and this is
• 2:35:11
  Speaker 11: a bullpen game for Anaheim. Sean Armstrong's going to start
• 2:35:17
  Speaker 11: his rehab assignment in AA Akron tomorrow night. The 1-2.
• 2:35:23
  Speaker 11: Swing and a foul. Third base side. Sean was saying
• 2:35:26
  Speaker 11: tonight he feels great. He had that, in essence, a
• 2:35:31
  Speaker 11: groin injury. And he said, the good thing is I
• 2:35:34
  Speaker 11: won't need many rehab appearances because I've been throwing every
• 2:35:40
  Speaker 11: day since the injury. The pitch, down and in, 2-2.
• 2:35:44
  Speaker 11: Said the injury did not keep me from throwing, so
• 2:35:48
  Speaker 11: it's not like I've got to rebuild my arm. I
• 2:35:51
  Speaker 11: just need a few outings to get sharp. And boy,
• 2:35:55
  Speaker 11: what an addition that'll be to get Sean Armstrong back
• 2:35:58
  Speaker 11: in that now very deep bullpen. The 2-2. A foul
• 2:36:02
  Speaker 11: at the plate fought off the changeup. Sean Armstrong was saying,
• 2:36:08
  Speaker 11: the reason I picked Akron, he goes, I'm not getting
• 2:36:11
  Speaker 11: in a plane and traveling all day for one inning.
• 2:36:14
  Speaker 11: Akron's the only team at home, not Lake County, not Columbus.
• 2:36:18
  Speaker 11: Here's the 2-2 down low, and boy, that's such an
• 2:36:22
  Speaker 11: advantage for Cleveland. You've got your high A ball club
• 2:36:27
  Speaker 11: 20 minutes from this ballpark. Your AAA ballpark, two and
• 2:36:32
  Speaker 11: a half hours away. At best, the AA park an
• 2:36:36
  Speaker 11: hour away. The payoff, Fry bangs it up the middle,
• 2:36:41
  Speaker 11: base hit, and hopping it over was Dan Iasonia, the
• 2:36:45
  Speaker 11: second base up, who nearly got drilled. And David Fry
• 2:36:50
  Speaker 11: follows the Kyle Manzardo single. Ripping one back up the
• 2:36:54
  Speaker 11: middle to center. Two on, one out, no score. Here's
• 2:36:58
  Speaker 11: Daniel Schneeman, the left-handed hitting center fielder. And the Angels'
• 2:37:03
  Speaker 11: bullpen is stirring. The guy that's going to cover most
• 2:37:08
  Speaker 11: of the innings tonight is Alec Manoa, longtime starter who
• 2:37:12
  Speaker 11: had one great year in Toronto. And he's going to
• 2:37:17
  Speaker 11: get the bulk innings tonight out of the bullpen. Schneeman takes,
• 2:37:23
  Speaker 11: it's a strike, top of the zone with a fastball.
• 2:37:27
  Speaker 11: Shooter's fastball, 87 miles an hour. His changeup, 77. Now
• 2:37:34
  Speaker 11: the 0-1. Hit off the end of the bat toward third.
• 2:37:40
  Speaker 11: Grissom to second. That's the only out they'll get. The
• 2:37:43
  Speaker 11: throw went to the shortstop. Netto at second. So Manzardo
• 2:37:49
  Speaker 11: to third, Frey forced out in second. Schneeman to first
• 2:37:54
  Speaker 11: on the fielder's choice. So two down, runners first and third,
• 2:37:59
  Speaker 11: no score, second inning. Hey, whenever the Guardians win, your
• 2:38:02
  Speaker 11: Northeast Ohio Ford dealers donate $ 500 to Cleveland Guardians charities.
• 2:38:08
  Speaker 11: They support expanded access to youth sports in Cleveland. Left
• 2:38:14
  Speaker 11: on left, here's Travis Buzanam. The pride of Australia. The pitch.
• 2:38:20
  Speaker 11: And it's up and in. Ball one. In 11 games
• 2:38:24
  Speaker 11: since coming up, Travis Bozzano has seven hits and has
• 2:38:30
  Speaker 11: walked ten times. The pitch. And it's in there.
• 2:38:37
  Speaker 2: One and one.
• 2:38:39
  Speaker 11: His batting average, 194.
• 2:38:40
  Speaker 15: But.
• 2:38:42
  Speaker 11: On base percentage, 396 because of the walks. Suter a
• 2:38:51
  Speaker 11: look at first.
• 2:38:52
  Speaker 2: The 1-1. Check swing. It's a little outside. Did he go?
• 2:38:56
  Speaker 11: Yes, says the third base up Adam Beck on the appeal.
• 2:39:00
  Speaker 11: 1-2 the count. Got a look at the replay. Good
• 2:39:07
  Speaker 11: call by Adam Beck at third. Lozano. Pretty difficult two-strike hitter.
• 2:39:15
  Speaker 11: Takes down and away two and two for a youngster
• 2:39:19
  Speaker 11: who's playing in his 12th Major League game. Remarkable poise, composure,
• 2:39:26
  Speaker 11: and selectivity when he's in that batter's box. He's got
• 2:39:32
  Speaker 11: a chance to be special, folks, as does Chase DeLauder,
• 2:39:36
  Speaker 11: as does Parker Messick. The pitch, up high, fastball, wouldn't chase,
• 2:39:41
  Speaker 11: full count. And based on what we saw from Franco
• 2:39:45
  Speaker 11: Alleman out of the bullpen yesterday, so does he. Here's
• 2:39:49
  Speaker 11: four rookies that could be pivotal for this club all
• 2:39:52
  Speaker 11: season long. No score. Runners at the corners. Two down
• 2:39:56
  Speaker 11: in the second. The payoff pitch to Travis Pisano from
• 2:40:00
  Speaker 11: Brent Suter. Down low. He's walked again. And the bases
• 2:40:05
  Speaker 11: are loaded. Down in the count. One ball, two strikes.
• 2:40:09
  Speaker 11: Pisano works a walk to load him up for Brian Rocchio.
• 2:40:15
  Speaker 11: And it looks like we'll have a pitching change right here.
• 2:40:19
  Speaker 11: By the way, the pitching coach is the esteemed Mike Maddox,
• 2:40:23
  Speaker 11: the brother of Hall of Famer Greg Maddox. This is
• 2:40:27
  Speaker 11: rookie manager Kurt Suzuki coming out, and Kurt Suzuki says,
• 2:40:32
  Speaker 11: this won't be my last visit to the mound. And
• 2:40:36
  Speaker 11: this call to the bullpen presented by Spartan Storm Shield,

• 2:40:45
  Speaker 11: with the bases loaded two down we are scoreless in
• 2:40:49
  Speaker 11: the second will they finally get that hit to open
• 2:40:53
  Speaker 11: a game up early we'll find out when we come back.

• 2:42:14
  Speaker 20: Beth, you're always there for me and not a moment
• 2:42:16
  Speaker 20: too soon.
• 2:42:17
  Speaker 13: Are your neighbors bowling with grand pianos again?
• 2:42:19
  Speaker 20: And apparently raising livestock?
• 2:42:22
  Speaker 13: For every financial need, we'll meet you in the moment.

  Speaker 13: KeyBank opens doors. Equal housing lender. NMLS number 399797.
• 2:42:29
  Speaker 2: News Radio 570. WKBN. Youngstown.
• 2:42:39
  Speaker 11: Jose Fermin is coming on. He is a rookie right-hander
• 2:42:45
  Speaker 11: for the Angels. He primarily throws sliders. I mean, he
• 2:42:51
  Speaker 11: throws a slider. 66% of the time. And he couples
• 2:42:58
  Speaker 11: that with a fastball sinker and a changeup. Bases loaded,
• 2:43:02
  Speaker 11: two down, no score, second inning. Brian Rocchio batting left-handed
• 2:43:06
  Speaker 11: takes the strike. He's Cleveland's best hitter when it counts. Batting.
• 2:43:12
  Speaker 11: 387 with men in scoring position. Had a four-hit game yesterday.
• 2:43:19
  Speaker 11: Two down, bases jammed, no score, bottom of the second.
• 2:43:22
  Speaker 11: The next offering. Swing and a miss. Boy, is that
• 2:43:26
  Speaker 11: a good-looking slider. 0-2. Fermin in his sixth appearance since
• 2:43:31
  Speaker 11: coming up. A win, a loss, an ERA of 150.
• 2:43:35
  Speaker 11: He has not walked a batter and has struck out
• 2:43:39
  Speaker 11: eight and given up two hits and six innings. That's
• 2:43:43
  Speaker 11: a heck of a resume early. The 0-2. Swing and
• 2:43:48
  Speaker 11: a line drive, base hit into right. That'll score Manzardo.
• 2:43:51
  Speaker 11: That'll score Schneeman. Bazana on his way to third. And
• 2:43:55
  Speaker 11: a two-strike, two-out, two-run single to right by Brian Rocchio.
• 2:44:02
  Speaker 11: Four hits yesterday and a critical one here in the second.
• 2:44:07
  Speaker 11: 2-0 Cleveland. And Rocchio now 21 RBIs in that nine hole.
• 2:44:15
  Speaker 11: And that lack of a clutch hit that was missing
• 2:44:18
  Speaker 11: all weekend against Minnesota, they get one thanks to Rocchio
• 2:44:23
  Speaker 11: here in the second inning tonight. Top of the order here,
• 2:44:27
  Speaker 11: Stephen Kwan. Rocchio, decent lead at first. The pitch, and
• 2:44:35
  Speaker 11: it's low, ball one. Boy, the last two games that
• 2:44:39
  Speaker 11: Cleveland lost to the Minnesota Twins, Cleveland lost. Left 25
• 2:44:47
  Speaker 11: men on base in those two games. And went four
• 2:44:51
  Speaker 11: for 25 with men in scoring position. That's how big
• 2:44:56
  Speaker 11: that hit was by Rocchio when you look at those numbers.
• 2:44:59
  Speaker 11: He takes off. Pitch inside corner. A strike. No throw. Oh,
• 2:45:03
  Speaker 11: did he get a jump. Seven steals for Rocchio. Boy,
• 2:45:09
  Speaker 11: and all of a sudden this Cleveland club is running
• 2:45:12
  Speaker 11: at will, and a lot of that credit goes to
• 2:45:16
  Speaker 11: Travis Bazzana. Since he came up, Hosey always steals, but
• 2:45:21
  Speaker 11: Bazzana has seven. Now Rocchio has seven. And Bazzana has
• 2:45:26
  Speaker 11: seven steals in 11 games. And Cleveland is starting to
• 2:45:32
  Speaker 11: become one of the league leaders in stolen bases. Now
• 2:45:35
  Speaker 11: runners second and third. The 1-1 to Quad. And it's
• 2:45:40
  Speaker 11: on the inside corner. He took a strike on a slider.
• 2:45:45
  Speaker 11: One ball, two strikes. Kwon grounded out to second his
• 2:45:49
  Speaker 11: first time up. Deep in the box, feet almost touching
• 2:45:53
  Speaker 11: each other on top of the plate. Kwon awaits the one-two.
• 2:45:58
  Speaker 11: Here it comes. Swung on a chopper to first. Big
• 2:46:02
  Speaker 11: bounce chest high handled by Shaunawell. He'll retire Kwon, but
• 2:46:07
  Speaker 11: Roquio has come through again. 2-0 Cleveland after two on
• 2:46:12
  Speaker 11: the Cleveland Clinic Radio Network.
• 2:46:15
  Speaker 2: News Radio 570 WKBN Youngstown.
• 2:46:16
  Speaker 10: 2-0 Cleveland.
• 2:46:17
  Speaker 2: Joey Cantillo.
• 2:46:30
  Speaker 11: Top of the order. Top of the third. Shortstop Zach Netto.
• 2:46:34
  Speaker 11: And he takes down low. Netto like Cedric Mullins coming
• 2:46:39
  Speaker 11: out of Campbell University. In Buies Creek, North Carolina. About
• 2:46:45
  Speaker 11: 30 miles from Raleigh. The 1-0 pitch. Swing and a
• 2:46:51
  Speaker 11: foul at the plate. The coach that he played for
• 2:46:54
  Speaker 11: is now the head baseball coach at the Ohio State University.
• 2:47:00
  Speaker 11: A little different recruiting base when you go from the
• 2:47:04
  Speaker 11: fighting camels to the Buckeyes. Netto popped up to first
• 2:47:11
  Speaker 11: his first time up.
• 2:47:15
  Speaker 2: Now the 1-1. And it's... in there. One ball, two strikes.
• 2:47:22
  Speaker 2: Guardians and Reds Saturday night, 6-10.
• 2:47:24
  Speaker 11: Oh boy. Netto's challenging the call. Here we go. They're
• 2:47:31
  Speaker 11: out of challenges the rest of the night. Netto was wrong.
• 2:47:35
  Speaker 11: The Angels in the third inning. 0-2 in the challenge department.
• 2:47:40
  Speaker 11: Thanks for coming. I don't understand when you're down to
• 2:47:45
  Speaker 11: one challenge, you're challenging the third pitch of an at-bat
• 2:47:49
  Speaker 11: in the third inning. The pitch bounces in there two
• 2:47:52
  Speaker 11: and two. I know teams and players are still trying
• 2:47:56
  Speaker 11: to use this and learn how to use it, but
• 2:48:00
  Speaker 11: common sense has to prevail at some point. It's got
• 2:48:03
  Speaker 11: to be a decisive pitch in the at-bat. Not before that,
• 2:48:07
  Speaker 11: you wouldn't think. Now the 2-2 Donato. Waved at the
• 2:48:14
  Speaker 11: curve ball. Netto is strikeout victim number two. I'm befuddled.
• 2:48:22
  Speaker 11: Here's Mike Trout. Grounded out his first time up. By
• 2:48:29
  Speaker 11: the way, the Rajay Davis bobblehead giveaway Saturday night. That's
• 2:48:32
  Speaker 11: courtesy of Discount Drug Mart. You can get your tickets
• 2:48:36
  Speaker 11: at CLEGuardians.com. The pitch. And it's in there.
• 2:48:41
  Speaker 6: Strikes.
• 2:48:42
  Speaker 11: Mike Trout grounded out his first time up. Mike Trout
• 2:48:50
  Speaker 11: on his way to Cooperstown. The 0-1, waved at 0-2.
• 2:48:56
  Speaker 11: He now leads all active major leaguers with a war
• 2:49:01
  Speaker 11: of 89.5. That in itself is Hall of Fame worthy.
• 2:49:08
  Speaker 11: That's wins above replacements. Now the pitch down low. Now
• 2:49:16
  Speaker 11: we're not going to get into all of it. But,
• 2:49:19
  Speaker 11: I mean, the best war belongs to who else? Babe Ruth, 182.
• 2:49:25
  Speaker 11: The pitch down low. But, I mean, if you want
• 2:49:30
  Speaker 11: to get more in his line, like Barry Larkin is
• 2:49:34
  Speaker 11: in the Hall of Fame with a war of 70. Wow.
• 2:49:37
  Speaker 11: You know, and again, that's not the end-all, be-all. It's
• 2:49:43
  Speaker 11: just another way to look at players. But an 89 war.
• 2:49:50
  Speaker 11: Roberto Clemente had a 95.
• 2:49:52
  Speaker 2: The pitch.
• 2:49:54
  Speaker 11: Swing and a miss. Chase the change up the way.
• 2:49:57
  Speaker 11: Third strikeout. Jose Ramirez is ninth among active players of
• 2:50:05
  Speaker 11: the war of 59. But Mike Trout's the leader at 89.5.
• 2:50:10
  Speaker 11: Justin Verlander nearly 82. Mookie Betts 75. Max Scherzer nearly 75.
• 2:50:18
  Speaker 11: Aaron Judge already nearly 65. Here's Vaughn Grissom taking a strike. Anyway.
• 2:50:25
  Speaker 11: Make a case for all those guys to be in Cooperstown.
• 2:50:28
  Speaker 2: I would easily.
• 2:50:29
  Speaker 11: I think they all will be. Two down, 2-0 Cleveland.
• 2:50:33
  Speaker 11: Third inning. Vaughn Grissom flied on his first time up,
• 2:50:36
  Speaker 11: takes down low, 1-1. I think sometimes, too, when you
• 2:50:42
  Speaker 11: talk about the great baseball writers like a Paul Hoynes,
• 2:50:45
  Speaker 11: like a Tyler Kepner, like others, the eye test means something, too,
• 2:50:50
  Speaker 11: and they use their eyes. The 1-1, a swing and
• 2:50:54
  Speaker 11: a foul at the plate, 1-2. Anybody that's watched any
• 2:50:58
  Speaker 11: amount of baseball could tell you Jose Ramirez and Mike
• 2:51:03
  Speaker 11: Trout are future Hall of Famers. Kenny Lofton should be
• 2:51:06
  Speaker 11: in the Hall of Fame. I think he gets in
• 2:51:08
  Speaker 11: there someday with the veterans, but he should have been
• 2:51:10
  Speaker 11: in there by now. The 1-2 pitch, and it's made,
• 2:51:14
  Speaker 11: but time was called at the last second. Boy, that's
• 2:51:19
  Speaker 11: about as late as you'll ever see. Kenny Lofton has
• 2:51:23
  Speaker 11: a war of 68. Basically the same as Mike Trout.
• 2:51:28
  Speaker 11: I beg your pardon, not the same as Mike Trout.
• 2:51:31
  Speaker 11: But his 68 is higher than Ryan Sandberg, Ernie Banks,
• 2:51:37
  Speaker 11: Edgar Martinez, Carlton Fisk. Anyhow.
• 2:51:45
  Speaker 2: Food for debate.
• 2:51:46
  Speaker 11: The pitch. Swing and a foul down the right side
• 2:51:49
  Speaker 11: by Vaughn Grissom. You were around him for all those years.
• 2:51:55
  Speaker 11: What's holding him back, you think? I think he got
• 2:51:58
  Speaker 11: punished for two things. He played in the steroid era.
• 2:52:03
  Speaker 11: and didn't put up the home run numbers. The pitch
• 2:52:06
  Speaker 11: swung on a rocket to left. It'll be caught by Kwon.
• 2:52:09
  Speaker 11: Grissom's out number three. And I think the ballot featured
• 2:52:14
  Speaker 11: a lot of those guys that Kenny got overlooked. He
• 2:52:17
  Speaker 11: played for a lot of teams, but the reason was
• 2:52:20
  Speaker 11: everybody traded for him because he was a winner, and
• 2:52:22
  Speaker 11: they wanted him for the playoffs. Kenny Lofton's a Hall
• 2:52:26
  Speaker 11: of Famer. 2-0 Cleveland, middle of the third.
• 2:52:30
  Speaker 2: Check engine or ABS light on?

• 2:52:53
  Speaker 11: I win!
• 2:52:54

  Speaker 11: Jose Fermin misses outside with a sinker. Ball one to
• 2:54:25
  Speaker 11: Chase DeLauder. Grounded out his first time up. Left-handed hitting
• 2:54:29
  Speaker 11: right fielder in the two-hole. Cleveland with a 2-0 lead
• 2:54:32
  Speaker 11: on the Brian Rocchio. Two-out, two-run single in the second.
• 2:54:36
  Speaker 11: Fermin delivering. And he missed down with a sinker.
• 2:54:40
  Speaker 4: 2-0.
• 2:54:42
  Speaker 11: Chase DeLauder and company in this third inning. Bat for
• 2:54:45
  Speaker 11: Corey Parrish of Cleveland in the Hyundai Grand Slam giveaway.
• 2:54:50
  Speaker 11: Trying to win a Hyundai Kona from your Northern Ohio
• 2:54:53
  Speaker 11: Hyundai dealers. De Lauder takes its low 3-0. Angels want
• 2:54:59
  Speaker 11: a challenge. Visit HyundaiGrandSlam.com to enter. And maybe you can
• 2:55:07
  Speaker 11: win a Hyundai Kona. Now the 3-0 to De Lauder
• 2:55:12
  Speaker 11: from Fermin. Outside, ball four. Can we implement that if
• 2:55:22
  Speaker 11: a team's out of challenges and they want one, that
• 2:55:24
  Speaker 11: the buzzer sounds? Well, the home plate umpire tonight, Jonathan Parra,
• 2:55:30
  Speaker 11: has one of those quacking ducks that every time the
• 2:55:35
  Speaker 11: Angels want a challenge, he kind of rubs it in.
• 2:55:41
  Speaker 11: Can't say I blame him. Get you a station ID
• 2:55:44
  Speaker 11: here in a moment. Jose Ramirez takes one in the dirt,
• 2:55:47
  Speaker 11: gets away from Rivera. Wild pitch puts DeLauder at second
• 2:55:51
  Speaker 11: and puts us in a station ID.
• 2:55:53
  Speaker 2: Here in the Cleveland Clinic Radio Network.
• 2:55:56
  Speaker 22: From the Money Talks investment coach, John Arnold Studios, this
• 2:56:00
  Speaker 22: is 570 WKBN Youngstown, an iHeartRadio station guaranteed human.
• 2:56:07
  Speaker 11: Tom Hamilton, Jim Rosenhouse, Brian Motze with you. A sunny
• 2:56:11
  Speaker 11: but chilly night on the banks or the shores of
• 2:56:15
  Speaker 11: Lake Erie, Ramirez swings way early at a changeup. Lake
• 2:56:21
  Speaker 11: Erie a little rough today with all the waves. Cleveland two,
• 2:56:27
  Speaker 11: the Angels nothing. Bottom of the third, a runner at second,
• 2:56:30
  Speaker 11: nobody out. Ramirez lined out his first time against Suter.
• 2:56:35
  Speaker 11: The pitch down and in, two and one. Brent Suter
• 2:56:38
  Speaker 11: goes an inning and two-thirds, gives up two runs on
• 2:56:41
  Speaker 11: two hits, walked a batter, struck out a batter. Bullpen
• 2:56:44
  Speaker 11: game for the Angels. Second in a row for Cleveland.
• 2:56:48
  Speaker 11: Twins used one yesterday. Now the 2-1 delivery. Check swing
• 2:56:55
  Speaker 11: down and in.
• 2:56:56
  Speaker 10: 3-1.
• 2:56:58
  Speaker 11: I won't name the writer, but he writes and votes
• 2:57:04
  Speaker 11: for the Baseball Hall of Fame. And I never want
• 2:57:07
  Speaker 11: to give out writers' names that are voters. because that's
• 2:57:11
  Speaker 11: not fair. Some don't want that known and I don't
• 2:57:14
  Speaker 11: blame them. The 3-1 pitch swung on a chopper to
• 2:57:19
  Speaker 11: third handled by Shanawell races to the bag and just
• 2:57:23
  Speaker 11: hit the Ozy. He kept it close but Ozy gets
• 2:57:27
  Speaker 11: DeLauder to third. One down but This writer, who will
• 2:57:32
  Speaker 11: vote for the Hall of Fame, said he agrees Kenny
• 2:57:36
  Speaker 11: Lofton's a Hall of Famer. Now, unfortunately, Kenny was inexplicably
• 2:57:41
  Speaker 11: on the ballot one year and didn't get enough votes.
• 2:57:45
  Speaker 11: And so it's up to the Veterans Committee to do
• 2:57:48
  Speaker 11: right by Kenny Lofton. Infield in for Reese Hoskins. Struck
• 2:57:52
  Speaker 11: out his first time up. Righty-righty matchup. The pitch down low,
• 2:57:56
  Speaker 11: ball one. Heck, I hear all this talk about Felix Hernandez,
• 2:58:06
  Speaker 11: great pitcher. Oral Hershiser has better numbers than Felix Hernandez.
• 2:58:10
  Speaker 11: Why aren't they talking about Oral Hershiser? The pitch inside, 2-0.
• 2:58:14
  Speaker 11: I know I'm being provincial, talking about guys that played here,
• 2:58:18
  Speaker 11: but I think people have forgotten how good Oral Hershiser was.
• 2:58:24
  Speaker 11: If you're diving into numbers and have that to back
• 2:58:26
  Speaker 11: it up.
• 2:58:29
  Speaker 2: Especially when they match people, the 2-0. Inside 3-0.
• 2:58:33
  Speaker 11: I'm not taking anything away from King Felix. I'm just saying,
• 2:58:37
  Speaker 11: Oral Hershiser then should be in as well. There's no
• 2:58:40
  Speaker 11: pitcher in the history of the game that's ever had
• 2:58:42
  Speaker 11: a better year than Oral had in 1988. Both regular
• 2:58:47
  Speaker 11: and postseason. The 3-0 pitch. Ball four inside. Again, you know, Rosie,
• 2:58:54
  Speaker 11: right here the Angels would have challenged two or three
• 2:58:58
  Speaker 11: pitches this inning. They can't. They're out of challenges. And Hoskins,
• 2:59:03
  Speaker 11: a four-pitch walk to put runners at the corners and
• 2:59:06
  Speaker 11: bring out pitching coach Mike Maddox. And what has to
• 2:59:09
  Speaker 11: be frustrating, at least one of them was not a
• 2:59:12
  Speaker 11: deciding pitch that would have decided a strikeout or a walk.
• 2:59:16
  Speaker 11: And that's where I think you get frustrated early innings
• 2:59:19
  Speaker 11: when those type of decisions are made. Look, there's always
• 2:59:22
  Speaker 11: going to be Hall of Fame debates. Isn't that the
• 2:59:24
  Speaker 11: best thing about the Baseball Hall of Fame? I don't
• 2:59:28
  Speaker 11: hear anyone have these debates. And again, not disparaging any
• 2:59:33
  Speaker 11: Hall of Fame. Any Hall of.
• 2:59:35
  Speaker 2: Fame is great.
• 2:59:36
  Speaker 11: But you don't hear the same debates for the NBA
• 2:59:39
  Speaker 11: and the NFL as you do the Major League Baseball
• 2:59:41
  Speaker 11: Hall of Fame. And getting back to Hershiser, how much
• 2:59:43
  Speaker 11: do you count that stretch in 88?
• 2:59:46
  Speaker 24: Oh, God.
• 2:59:48
  Speaker 11: When it was, the ramifications for his team. So do
• 2:59:53
  Speaker 11: MVPs count way more? Do World Series titles weigh more? Well,
• 2:59:57
  Speaker 11: if you look at his war, you look at his wins,
• 3:00:00
  Speaker 11: you look at his ERA, you look at his whip,
• 3:00:03
  Speaker 11: all very similar to Felix Hernandez, who most people feel
• 3:00:07
  Speaker 11: will go in. Infield in for Kyle Manzardo. Runners at
• 3:00:11
  Speaker 11: the corners, 2-0 Cleveland. Third inning pitch, high ball one.
• 3:00:16
  Speaker 11: Enough of the Hall of Fame. I don't want to
• 3:00:17
  Speaker 11: bore people to tears. Kyle Manzardo singled and scored last inning.
• 3:00:28
  Speaker 11: Broken bat flare that fell into right center. Infield in.
• 3:00:34
  Speaker 11: The pitch. And it's in there. This is interesting that
• 3:00:38
  Speaker 11: manager Kurt Suzuki is playing the infield in. Normally with
• 3:00:42
  Speaker 11: one out. And a guy as slow-footed as Kyle Manzardo,
• 3:00:45
  Speaker 11: you would play back for the double play.
• 3:00:48
  Speaker 2: We'll see how it goes. Now the set. Now the pitch.
• 3:00:55
  Speaker 2: Swung on.
• 3:00:56
  Speaker 11: Drilled foul down the left side. Second baseman Peraza now
• 3:00:59
  Speaker 11: has dropped back a little. Nato the shortstop is near
• 3:01:03
  Speaker 11: the cut of the grass near second. Now the third
• 3:01:07
  Speaker 11: baseman Grissom has dropped behind the bag at third. Shanawell
• 3:01:11
  Speaker 11: holds Hoskins at first. 2-0 Cleveland. Runners at the corners.
• 3:01:18
  Speaker 11: One out, the 1-2 delivery. High 2-2. Here's where Cleveland
• 3:01:23
  Speaker 11: has been working diligently in situational hitting. Getting that run
• 3:01:28
  Speaker 11: in from third with less than two outs. Fermin making
• 3:01:36
  Speaker 11: a lot of pitches out of the strike zone this inning.
• 3:01:39
  Speaker 11: Hand set, chest high, lets it fly. Missed outside with
• 3:01:43
  Speaker 11: a changeup. Full count. He has now made 25 pitches,
• 3:01:49
  Speaker 11: 10 strikes. So Manzardo awaits the payoff pitch.
• 3:02:01
  Speaker 2: Here it comes.
• 3:02:04
  Speaker 11: Ball four high and wide. A fastball loads him up.
• 3:02:08
  Speaker 11: He's walked three this inning. And now David Fry to
• 3:02:11
  Speaker 11: the plate. Bases loaded. And oh my goodness. It's the
• 3:02:17
  Speaker 11: Hyundai Grand Slam giveaway inning. Manager Kurt Suzuki knows the
• 3:02:24
  Speaker 11: drama that's building for the Hyundai Grand Slam. Thus, he's
• 3:02:28
  Speaker 11: going to make a pitching change to allow us to
• 3:02:30
  Speaker 11: read the cards. That's a broadcaster-friendly manager. Corey Parrish of Cleveland,

• 3:04:31
  Speaker 11: Well, this is bizarre, isn't it? Back-to-back bullpen games. First
• 3:04:36
  Speaker 11: by Minnesota, now by the Angels. They're literally the two
• 3:04:40
  Speaker 11: worst bullpens in the American League. But the Twins got
• 3:04:44
  Speaker 11: it done yesterday, and the Angels trying to get it
• 3:04:47
  Speaker 11: done tonight. The Angels have a bullpen earned run average
• 3:04:52
  Speaker 11: of 538. And now a one-time really good closer. Trying
• 3:04:59
  Speaker 11: to prolong his career in the Angel bullpen. Kirby Yates
• 3:05:02
  Speaker 11: to face David Fry. Bases loaded, one out, 2-0 Cleveland,
• 3:05:06
  Speaker 11: third inning. Yates firing, Fry taking down and away. Yates,
• 3:05:13
  Speaker 11: fastball slider and split. He is now 39 years of age.
• 3:05:21
  Speaker 11: He works from the set, third base side of the rubber.
• 3:05:26
  Speaker 11: He delivers to Fry inside 2-0. Yates, his second appearance,
• 3:05:33
  Speaker 11: he's worked one scoreless inning. He, too, is a native
• 3:05:44
  Speaker 11: of Hawaii. like Joey Cantillo. Now the 2-0. In there,
• 3:05:52
  Speaker 11: called strike through a splitter. He was a two-time All-Star
• 3:05:58
  Speaker 11: with San Diego and Texas. Boy, one time he was
• 3:06:01
  Speaker 11: a tremendous closer. Righty-righty matchup. Kirby Yates with the bases loaded. DeLauder, Hoskins, Manzardo,
• 3:06:10
  Speaker 11: the runners, the pitch. In the dirt. What a scoop!
• 3:06:14
  Speaker 11: Darting to his right by Rivero to save a wild pitch. Boy,
• 3:06:19
  Speaker 11: and Yates is all over the map. And now the
• 3:06:23
  Speaker 11: count is 3-1 with no place to put him. Here's
• 3:06:35
  Speaker 11: the set, and now time called. Yates steps off the rubber.
• 3:06:45
  Speaker 11: Kirby Yates just off the injured list. Hands held high,
• 3:06:52
  Speaker 11: lets it fly. A splitter strike. Boy, that splitter acts
• 3:06:57
  Speaker 11: more like a change-up. Full count. You know David Frye
• 3:07:03
  Speaker 11: was sitting fastball. Now three and two to count. With
• 3:07:07
  Speaker 11: the bases loaded, one down, 2-0 Cleveland. Third inning, another
• 3:07:10
  Speaker 11: chance to blow a game open early. The payoff pitch.
• 3:07:17
  Speaker 11: Ball four inside. And fourth walk in the inning, this
• 3:07:22
  Speaker 11: one by Kirby Yates. David Frye picks up his seventh
• 3:07:27
  Speaker 11: run batted in on the bases loaded walk. Chase DeLauder scores.
• 3:07:32
  Speaker 11: Reese Hoskins to third, Kyle Manzardo to second. And David
• 3:07:36
  Speaker 11: Frye now with a single and a bases loaded walk.
• 3:07:40
  Speaker 11: Here's Daniel Schneeman. Now we've seen him clear the bases.
• 3:07:48
  Speaker 11: One down, infield back, double play depth. The set, the
• 3:07:57
  Speaker 11: pitch to Schneeman. At the knees, the strike. Schneeman, he
• 3:08:04
  Speaker 11: had a grand slam against Baltimore back on April 17th.
• 3:08:11
  Speaker 11: Cleveland lost that game 6-4. He was it for Cleveland offensively.
• 3:08:17
  Speaker 11: Had a grand slam last year in Toronto.
• 3:08:20
  Speaker 2: The 0-1.
• 3:08:21
  Speaker 11: Swung on. Broken bat.
• 3:08:23
  Speaker 2: Flair.
• 3:08:23
  Speaker 11: Base hit into right center. Scoring is Hoskins. Manzardo right
• 3:08:28
  Speaker 11: behind him. Motoring to third is David Frye. Now that
• 3:08:33
  Speaker 11: is the second broken bat single tonight for Cleveland. Schneeman
• 3:08:37
  Speaker 11: gets it this time. Gets two RBIs in the process.
• 3:08:42
  Speaker 11: And so far this inning, the Angels have walked four.
• 3:08:47
  Speaker 11: Three have scored. It's 5-0 Cleveland. And there's that back-breaking
• 3:08:52
  Speaker 11: base hit to drive in runs and open a game
• 3:08:55
  Speaker 11: up that Cleveland's been lacking. Here's Travis Bozzana. Walked his
• 3:09:01
  Speaker 11: first time up. Well, let's see if Cleveland can put
• 3:09:05
  Speaker 11: an exclamation mark on this third inning. The pitch from Yates.
• 3:09:12
  Speaker 11: Down at the knees, a strike, and he challenges the call.
• 3:09:17
  Speaker 11: As good as his eye is, why not? It was low.
• 3:09:25
  Speaker 4: Ball one.
• 3:09:26
  Speaker 11: Good challenge by Travis Pisano.
• 3:09:28
  Speaker 2: How about that?
• 3:09:32
  Speaker 11: And you doubted him, Rosie. Shame on you.
• 3:09:35
  Speaker 2: That is not true. Oh, my gosh.
• 3:09:37
  Speaker 11: You were shaking his head as he tapped his helmet.
• 3:09:41
  Speaker 2: Shocked at you.
• 3:09:42
  Speaker 11: The 1-0 pitch to Bazzana. Runner goes. Pitch is high.
• 3:09:48
  Speaker 11: Throw to second. Bounces in. It's a stolen base. Ball
• 3:09:51
  Speaker 11: scoots off the glove toward the mound. And Nato tracks
• 3:09:55
  Speaker 11: it down and flips it to Yates. And that's stolen
• 3:09:59
  Speaker 11: base number three for Daniel Schneeman. Cleveland's second steal tonight.
• 3:10:08
  Speaker 11: And now a 2-0 count. And now the infield comes in.
• 3:10:12
  Speaker 11: Double play is out of the equation from a ground
• 3:10:18
  Speaker 11: ball standpoint. Now the 2-0 pitch, and again Yates steps off.
• 3:10:24
  Speaker 11: Travis Pizzotta was down in the count 1 and 2
• 3:10:28
  Speaker 11: last inning and walked. Now in the lead, 2-0. The
• 3:10:33
  Speaker 11: pitch to him. Swing and a foul at the plate.
• 3:10:36
  Speaker 11: Threw him a splitter. That seems to be the pitch
• 3:10:39
  Speaker 11: right now Yates has the most confidence in. That tells
• 3:10:43
  Speaker 11: you maybe he's lost a little something off the fastball,
• 3:10:47
  Speaker 11: and rightfully so. He's 39 years of age. 5-0 Cleveland.
• 3:10:54
  Speaker 11: Infield and runner, second and third. Still only one out.
• 3:10:57
  Speaker 11: The pitch. High. Called a strike. He challenges it again.
• 3:11:02
  Speaker 11: Bazana's second challenge in the at-bat. He is wrong this time.
• 3:11:15
  Speaker 11: You don't see that very often. So Cleveland down to
• 3:11:19
  Speaker 11: one challenge now. And Travis Pisano with the 2-2 count.
• 3:11:24
  Speaker 11: And a one for two in ABS challenges in this event.
• 3:11:28
  Speaker 11: The 2-2. Swung and drilled toward the gap. Left center.
• 3:11:34
  Speaker 11: Slicing away and drops and bounces all the way to
• 3:11:38
  Speaker 11: the wall. Scoring are Fry and Schneeman. And an opposite
• 3:11:43
  Speaker 11: field two run double to left center by Travis Bazzana.
• 3:11:47
  Speaker 11: And Cleveland has blown it wide open and lead it
• 3:11:52
  Speaker 11: 7-0 as that ball kept slicing away from the diving
• 3:11:56
  Speaker 11: Mike Trout in left center. And this bullpen game has
• 3:12:01
  Speaker 11: blown up in the Angels' face. And four walks this inning,
• 3:12:06
  Speaker 11: they all came around to score. And the Guardians, Travis Pazana,
• 3:12:12
  Speaker 11: now with six RBIs. That's his first double in the
• 3:12:17
  Speaker 11: major leagues. Here's Brian Rocchio batting left-handed. Two-run single last inning.
• 3:12:24
  Speaker 11: The pitch, and it's outside of ball. Boy, what a
• 3:12:29
  Speaker 11: difference Travis Pazana has made in less than two weeks
• 3:12:34
  Speaker 11: in regards to this ball club. Mm-mm-mm. Five runs second,
• 3:12:41
  Speaker 11: 7-0 Cleveland.
• 3:12:44
  Speaker 2: Now the 1-0.
• 3:12:46
  Speaker 11: And before it's made a turn and a look to second,
• 3:12:50
  Speaker 11: in visiting with an Angels person tonight, this person said,
• 3:12:55
  Speaker 11: our bullpen's a wreck. They're just trying to pitch. patch
• 3:12:59
  Speaker 11: it together and we're seeing it first hand the pitch
• 3:13:04
  Speaker 11: swing and a miss one and one if you don't
• 3:13:08
  Speaker 11: have a bullpen that you can count on you as
• 3:13:11
  Speaker 11: a manager can never make the right move because every
• 3:13:15
  Speaker 11: move you make blows up in your face that's what
• 3:13:19
  Speaker 11: happens when you have a bad bullpen now the one
• 3:13:22
  Speaker 11: one to Rokio outside ball two two and one At
• 3:13:28
  Speaker 11: one point they were 12-11, but some late game meltdowns
• 3:13:33
  Speaker 11: have hurt since then. And obviously in a bullpen game,
• 3:13:37
  Speaker 11: we're seeing it early here tonight.
• 3:13:40
  Speaker 2: Well, it's age old for the Angels. They never have
• 3:13:43
  Speaker 2: enough pitching.
• 3:13:44
  Speaker 10: Ever.
• 3:13:47
  Speaker 11: The pitch. Swing and a miss.
• 3:13:49
  Speaker 31: 2-2.
• 3:13:50
  Speaker 11: You don't have a winning season since 2015. It's because
• 3:13:54
  Speaker 11: you don't pitch. And this year... They have a pitching
• 3:13:58
  Speaker 11: staff ranked 12th in the American League with an earned
• 3:14:03
  Speaker 11: run average that's climbing toward 5 as a team. 7-0
• 3:14:08
  Speaker 11: Cleveland third inning. Huge lead for Bozzano. He draws the
• 3:14:13
  Speaker 11: throw back with a dive. Ball hit Netto in the
• 3:14:16
  Speaker 11: leg and ricocheted on the grass toward first. I don't
• 3:14:22
  Speaker 11: know if Netto just didn't see the throw or what. Boy,
• 3:14:29
  Speaker 11: this is one ugly first three innings for the Angels.
• 3:14:36
  Speaker 11: Roquio awaits the 2-2. Here it comes. Swung on, broken bat,
• 3:14:44
  Speaker 11: bouncer to first. This time Shaunawell makes the play unassisted.
• 3:14:50
  Speaker 11: Angels are breaking a lot of Cleveland lumber. But it's
• 3:14:54
  Speaker 11: 7-0 Cleveland. Bazana to third, two down, top of the order.
• 3:14:58
  Speaker 11: And the ninth man to bat, Stephen Kwan. He's batted
• 3:15:01
  Speaker 11: in all three innings. He's grounded out his first two
• 3:15:05
  Speaker 11: times up. The Angels with the worst record in the
• 3:15:11
  Speaker 11: American League, 16-25. You take away their tremendous starter, Jose Soriano,
• 3:15:20
  Speaker 11: who's one of the best pitchers in baseball this year.
• 3:15:24
  Speaker 11: If you take away the starts that Soriano has made,
• 3:15:29
  Speaker 11: the Angels' record is 9-23. Now the set by Yates.
• 3:15:37
  Speaker 11: The pitch way outside of splitter ball one. I mean,
• 3:15:44
  Speaker 11: what do you do? It's not even Memorial Day. You're
• 3:15:48
  Speaker 11: not going to be able to go out and get
• 3:15:49
  Speaker 11: more pitchings. Kirby Yates, the high hold, the 1-0. At
• 3:15:57
  Speaker 11: the knees, the strike, 1-1. And you touched on it earlier,
• 3:16:01
  Speaker 11: they've had some draft picks that have made it quickly
• 3:16:04
  Speaker 11: to the major leagues, but farm system-wise, as we speak,
• 3:16:08
  Speaker 11: it's thin. It is not one of the better farm
• 3:16:10
  Speaker 11: systems in baseball by any means. It's ranked as one
• 3:16:14
  Speaker 11: of the worst.
• 3:16:14
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 3:16:16
  Speaker 11: Now the 1-1 to Kwon, and he fouls it off.
• 3:16:19
  Speaker 11: Third base side, 1-2, and this is not pile on play.
• 3:16:22
  Speaker 11: Angels night, which is stating the facts. I mean, the
• 3:16:29
  Speaker 11: worst record right now in the American League, and they
• 3:16:34
  Speaker 11: have a pretty significant payroll. 7-0 Cleveland, third inning, runner
• 3:16:41
  Speaker 11: at third, two down the pitch, Kwon waves at it,
• 3:16:44
  Speaker 11: and has struck out to end the inning. So Cleveland
• 3:16:47
  Speaker 11: bats around, they're pummeling the Angels 7 zip after three
• 3:16:51
  Speaker 11: on the Cleveland Clinic radio network.
