- 2:05Speaker 6: How she do? She did fantastic. I don't let's get
- 2:10Speaker 6: this right. I don't have the year for music. I

- 2:23Speaker 5: How good does that feel to know that you men
- 2:26Speaker 5: handle one of those themes that might be in contention
- 2:29Speaker 5: right along with you guys for the postseason.
- 2:32Speaker 6: I mean, the boys, we all had a good approach
- 2:35Speaker 6: today and we executed it. The hitting coaches they gave
- 2:38Speaker 6: us a game plan and we were out there and
- 2:40Speaker 6: we extecute a game plan. Then Clay Holmes and Manaya
- 2:43Speaker 6: did a fantastic gup today. I mean it's been a
- 2:46Speaker 6: minucnce Manaya piggyback somebody, and the way he came out today,
- 2:50Speaker 6: he executed his game plan.
- 2:52Speaker 3: It was really good. Frank, it's Roberto Clemente night for you.
- 2:56Speaker 3: Tell us about your glove and let us know what's
- 2:58Speaker 3: all on it. What's the design of that?
- 3:01Speaker 4: Oh?
- 3:01Speaker 6: I have a lot of baseball cards from Clemento with
- 3:03Speaker 6: his rookie card MVP cards, and then I have a
- 3:07Speaker 6: lot of.
- 3:07Speaker 1: Little like he would.
- 3:09Speaker 6: He won the MVP for the worst series batting titles
- 3:12Speaker 6: three thousand pit.
- 3:15Speaker 3: And l MVP.
- 3:16Speaker 6: Just a little Clementa to me somewhere exturally important, you
- 3:20Speaker 6: know he is. He's my dad's favorite player, and it's
- 3:22Speaker 6: somebody that we all look up to. In Peri Rico,
- 3:24Speaker 6: somebody that we admired and just whenever we get to
- 3:28Speaker 6: celebrate somebody like him, not for what he did on
- 3:31Speaker 6: the field, but what he did off the field. It's
- 3:32Speaker 6: a cleaning special.
- 3:34Speaker 4: Hey man, you know this, this is the time of
- 3:36Speaker 4: year and we said it happens every year where you
- 3:38Speaker 4: need your stars to shine. How important is it for
- 3:40Speaker 4: you guys to not just be hot, but to be
- 3:42Speaker 4: a good team these last stretch to make sure you
- 3:45Speaker 4: separate yourself from the rest of the pack.
- 3:48Speaker 6: I mean, we want to do what we set up
- 3:49Speaker 6: to do in scring training. We have to play the
- 3:52Speaker 6: game the right way. We have to come out day
- 3:53Speaker 6: in and day out and give everything we got. You know,
- 3:55Speaker 6: we come into the last sprint of the year, everybody's
- 3:58Speaker 6: on board, everybody's pulling for each other, playing for each other.
- 4:01Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
- 4:02Speaker 6: It's fun. And Beatty came out a huge home run.
- 4:05Speaker 6: I come out, I hit the ball and I got
- 4:07Speaker 6: on my skateboard and just started running around the pieces
- 4:10Speaker 6: real quick. And then Pete comes in and shows me
- 4:14Speaker 6: how to hit a home run and how to jog
- 4:16Speaker 6: around the basises. You gotta have fun, you gotta enjoy
- 4:18Speaker 6: the game. You got to celebrate little things and play
- 4:22Speaker 6: for each other and then just learn from it and
- 4:24Speaker 6: move on.
- 4:26Speaker 1: Francisco's a Bugatti, probably not a skin, not a skateboard.
- 4:30Speaker 1: We're talking out. Tonight's all hard moment presented by Thriving.
- 4:33Speaker 1: The Mets showed heart and offense for days, and boy
- 4:37Speaker 1: did they needed eight runs for New York and they
- 4:39Speaker 1: went back to back games after losing eight in a row.
- 4:42Speaker 1: Play at Homes Pedro started this game. I was watching
- 4:45Speaker 1: it with you. You said you liked how he worked
- 4:48Speaker 1: early in the game. How will they use him in October?
- 4:51Speaker 2: What did you see?
- 4:52Speaker 5: I would like to actually see him do the same
- 4:54Speaker 5: thing and did tonight. And if they are able to
- 4:58Speaker 5: bring a guy like Anaya to come over and give
- 5:02Speaker 5: them not only you know, the rest of the innings
- 5:05Speaker 5: that they got from Manaya, but somewhat be reliable and
- 5:11Speaker 5: also give you a different angle every time he comes out,
- 5:15Speaker 5: especially after homes Homes is like this and like that,
- 5:18Speaker 5: and then Manaya can be wipeout slider against lefties forces
- 5:23Speaker 5: the lineup. I like the mental aspect of probably Homes
- 5:28Speaker 5: starting the game because as a reliever he struggled a lot,
- 5:32Speaker 5: and I am afraid that if you put him to
- 5:34Speaker 5: relieve again, he might get, you know, flashback from his
- 5:39Speaker 5: struggle in moments when when he was in relief. So
- 5:43Speaker 5: I would like to see him be an opener kind of.
- 5:46Speaker 5: And then you can bring the diversity with Manaya and
- 5:50Speaker 5: that actually showed up pretty well.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Okay, so David Peterson and.
- 5:54Speaker 5: Then go home, guys the pitch later.
- 5:56Speaker 2: The Wildcard series. We just need ten percent. He did
- 5:59Speaker 2: their job for You said it, and you both said it.
- 6:02Speaker 1: You said stars need to start right, and we're starting
- 6:05Speaker 1: to see that from the Mets. You always need the
- 6:08Speaker 1: role players, but you need your guys, especially going in
- 6:11Speaker 1: to October.
- 6:11Speaker 4: You definitely do. They've carried the weight and the load
- 6:14Speaker 4: of the season all on their backs for one hundred
- 6:18Speaker 4: and sixty two games. You expect that. But along the
- 6:20Speaker 4: way you have those guys that are going to chip
- 6:22Speaker 4: in and make sure, Hey, we got you to night,
- 6:24Speaker 4: big fella. But when a time comes down, when a
- 6:27Speaker 4: delight shine the brightest, they have to jump back in
- 6:30Speaker 4: the frame. We saw what happened the night before Landora tonight,
- 6:34Speaker 4: the polar Bear hitting the ball to the moon. Those
- 6:37Speaker 4: guys are still going to have to carry the weight
- 6:39Speaker 4: of it. But when those opportunities come up for the
- 6:41Speaker 4: non stars to chip in, that's what makes the difference
- 6:45Speaker 4: in the stars and sit back and say, now it's
- 6:47Speaker 4: my turn to take control of this will.
- 6:49Speaker 1: Right now it's Dodgers Mets in a wildcard series. Is
- 6:51Speaker 1: the divide great talent wise between the two?
- 6:57Speaker 3: No, I don't think it's great. I think where Jimmy
- 7:01Speaker 3: was saying these starts. I think what the Mets are
- 7:03Speaker 3: gonna have to do is, now you saw Brett. They
- 7:04Speaker 3: need to took the big home run Jeff McNeil in
- 7:07Speaker 3: the first inning after they had bases loaded, got that run,
- 7:10Speaker 3: got the double playball, and then he hit the two
- 7:13Speaker 3: out double. They got to get some length in that lineup.
- 7:15Speaker 3: If those guys at the bottom part of the lineup,
- 7:17Speaker 3: we know Lindor Soto, They're going to show up at
- 7:20Speaker 3: times throughout the postseason. It's like v In Toast last year.
- 7:23Speaker 3: That was a big surprise for them and he carried
- 7:26Speaker 3: them all the way through to the NLCS. So I
- 7:27Speaker 3: think the Mets need that whole lineup is to be
- 7:31Speaker 3: length full, and they got it tonight.
- 7:33Speaker 1: A metson posit two more starting tomorrow. They both have
- 7:35Speaker 1: a wild card comes within one of punching a playoff
- 7:38Speaker 1: birth and we get to have them on our air
- 7:40Speaker 1: next week. Jeff ran Core on the call, where will
- 7:42Speaker 1: you be Monday Night?
- 7:44Speaker 2: Chicago?
- 7:45Speaker 3: Chicago, pret stay towels.
- 7:47Speaker 2: Just with a seafood Tower, Sebert Tower.
- 7:49Speaker 3: Maybe a few cocktails and really just kind of get
- 7:51Speaker 3: the feel of what's going down. You know that it's
- 7:54Speaker 3: a work better
