2:55
Speaker 5: they showed me, they showed me how to essentially be
2:57
Speaker 5: a pro.
2:57

3:04
Speaker 5: pleasure to play with him and you know, love that time.
3:06
Speaker 5: And uh it's uh, it's I've been put in a
3:10
Speaker 5: really good situation with a lot of good dudes in
3:13
Speaker 5: front of me that for me for me to learn from.
3:15
Speaker 5: Seeh it, it's been a It's been a heck of
3:16
Speaker 5: a ride and a lot of fun.
3:20
Speaker 3: I'm gonna come at you, b obviously, you know I
3:23
Speaker 3: get this question a lot.
3:24
Speaker 6: Man, Good to see you. And obviously if people ask me.
3:28
Speaker 3: Outside of Pittsburgh, man, like you know, you got some
3:30
Speaker 3: good friends. Who was one guy that you saw that
3:34
Speaker 3: might have been underrated or one of your favorite teammates,
3:36
Speaker 3: And you're always one of the first names I come
3:38
Speaker 3: up with one. I don't know if you remember, but
3:41
Speaker 3: from one of the first days we met a spring
3:43
Speaker 3: training we in a weight room, we five and a
3:45
Speaker 3: young dolphin. I go, oh, you're a young Dolphan and
3:48
Speaker 3: we you know, we kind of link up there, and
3:49
Speaker 3: then from them that point on, that spring training goes on.
3:52
Speaker 6: I remember telling you.
3:53
Speaker 3: Like, Bro, I've watched enough baseball to tell like, man,
3:57
Speaker 3: you can play. You can do a lot of things
3:59
Speaker 3: you just haven't being given the opportunity to. And obviously
4:03
Speaker 3: you're getting a chance to face lefties this year and
4:06
Speaker 3: do some things that might have.
4:08
Speaker 6: Necessarily been taken away from you.
4:11
Speaker 3: Is that something that you worked on in the off season,
4:13
Speaker 3: you know, hitting lefties, or is that just something that
4:15
Speaker 3: she was like, Man, I'm just waiting to get my
4:16
Speaker 3: opportunity because I know how you rock.
4:18
Speaker 6: We've had this conversation.
4:20
Speaker 3: You play hard, like you play with your hair on fire,
4:22
Speaker 3: like you know, I'm saying, I understand that, like that preparation.
4:25
Speaker 3: Is that something that's like, man, I just got to
4:27
Speaker 3: stay ready. And I know k Long's are lefty. Is
4:29
Speaker 3: that something that he's been in there with you, you know
4:31
Speaker 3: what I mean, I'm thinking, yeah, for sure, a great question.
4:35
Speaker 5: I think it's I think it's just a matter of
4:37
Speaker 5: reps and repetition, you know, experience. You know, like you said,
4:43
Speaker 5: my first my first four years being up here in
4:46
Speaker 5: the big leagues, it's been a lot of matchup based stuff,
4:49
Speaker 5: which I think is part of the learning curve and
4:51
Speaker 5: part of me just you know, learning the ins and
4:53
Speaker 5: outs of each day, you know, routine preparation, you know,
4:57
Speaker 5: learning how to come off the bench, learning how to
4:59
Speaker 5: start and uh, you know, I think for me, going
5:02
Speaker 5: through all of that, all of those ups and downs
5:05
Speaker 5: the last couple of years, I think it's really helped me,
5:07
Speaker 5: uh be the best version of myself this year. And uh,
5:11
Speaker 5: you know, definitely it's not me. It's like I said earlier,
5:13
Speaker 5: it's all the guys in this locker room, and uh,
5:15
Speaker 5: they do a tremendous job with keeping keeping me ready,
5:18
Speaker 5: and I try to do the same for them. But yeah,
5:20
Speaker 5: you know, this off season really worked on you know,
5:22
Speaker 5: maybe just a little bit more angle. Uh, just really
5:25
Speaker 5: trying to keep the same swing that I do against
5:27
Speaker 5: right handed pitching, and it's it's easier said than done,
5:30
Speaker 5: you know, but uh it's a you know, it's it's
5:32
Speaker 5: been going this year and uh, you know, we just
5:35
Speaker 5: got to just keep taking it day by day.
5:36
Speaker 4: The good, the bend, the ugly.
5:37
Speaker 5: It's forgotten about and when you show up again the
5:39
Speaker 5: next day, you got to you gotta do it again.
5:41
Speaker 5: So uh yeah, just really just trying to trust and
5:43
Speaker 5: believe in myself and uh have that self confidence that
5:47
Speaker 5: I'm so I feel like not in I feel this
5:51
Speaker 5: coming from the humble part of my heart, but I'm
5:53
Speaker 5: supposed to be here.
5:54
Speaker 4: You know.
5:54
Speaker 5: It's a it's just from all the work that we've
5:57
Speaker 5: done behind the behind the scenes, and it's stuff like that.
6:00
Speaker 5: So I think, just answer your question, Jay, it's just
6:03
Speaker 5: a bunch of reps and me watching other guys go
6:06
Speaker 5: through it and really just trying to learn from them.
6:10
Speaker 6: Definitely, I love hearing that. Sorry, sorry, I was just
6:13
Speaker 6: saying I love hearing that.
6:14
Speaker 3: And just to add to that, I know I told
6:16
Speaker 3: you to believe it when we're in the weight room,
6:18
Speaker 3: and I know you got to tat it on you and.
6:20
Speaker 6: You know, It's nice to see that.
6:21
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, leaving those thoughts man, that's that's not saying
6:24
Speaker 3: I mean you want.
6:25
Speaker 5: To see it, but yeah, you said the humble part
6:29
Speaker 5: of you.

7:36
Speaker 2: Marcia, you said you talked about k Long a little
7:39
Speaker 2: bit earlier in the season. He said something when you
7:41
Speaker 2: guys are struggling against lefties, He said, well, we don't
7:44
Speaker 2: have a left handed BP pitcher because he had surgery.
7:47
Speaker 2: How much does that how much does that actually affect
7:51
Speaker 2: you guys as lefties.
7:54
Speaker 5: I feel like it may it may vary just from
7:57
Speaker 5: guy to guy, But me personally, I feel like I
8:00
Speaker 5: can get some good work off the machine, uh and
8:02
Speaker 5: just create that angle and just for whoever whoever we're
8:06
Speaker 5: facing that night. But I know a lot of guys
8:09
Speaker 5: love to hit BP when when the left he's throwing,
8:11
Speaker 5: and uh, you know, it's a it could it could
8:14
Speaker 5: affect the guy, could affect the individual. But I feel
8:17
Speaker 5: like with me, I'm not a I'm not a real
8:18
Speaker 5: big big BP guy. So I love the shag and
8:22
Speaker 5: do all that and watch ball flight and stuff stuff,
8:24
Speaker 5: But I do I'll do a bunch of my work
8:26
Speaker 5: in the cage. And uh, but uh I know us
8:29
Speaker 5: we we did we did get a guy. Uh, we
8:31
Speaker 5: did get a left handed b P throw and he's awesome,
8:33
Speaker 5: and uh he's been helping He's been helping us out
8:35
Speaker 5: a lot. And uh, you know Kevin, Kevin's rehabbing that shoulder,
8:38
Speaker 5: getting it back. So uh, it's just a matter of
8:40
Speaker 5: time before you see k Long throwing again.
8:43
Speaker 2: Tell k Long to stay off the training table. That's
8:46
Speaker 2: for the players. You can't go in there getting massages.
8:48
Speaker 2: So he's got to do his stuff. He's got to
8:50
Speaker 2: do his stuff with the cage, that's what. But hey,
8:53
Speaker 2: talk about two lefties that just absolutely went.
8:56
Speaker 4: Off at home?
8:58
Speaker 2: Did Swarber? Did Swerber? And and Harper? Do they need
9:01
Speaker 2: to have more Fox and Netflix games? Is that what
9:04
Speaker 2: it is? Like? Like the lights got a little bit
9:06
Speaker 2: brighter and these dudes are hitting cycles. Talk about what
9:09
Speaker 2: both those dudes did the last two nights.
9:13
Speaker 5: Oh Man, just starting with Hartman the cycle just I'm
9:17
Speaker 5: on deck watching him from like the best place on
9:20
Speaker 5: the from the best spot in the whole yard. You know,
9:22
Speaker 5: I get to watch I get to watch right from
9:24
Speaker 5: on deck, and I mean it was just at bad
9:26
Speaker 5: after that bad pitch after pitch he was he was
9:30
Speaker 5: on everything. You felt like every swing he took was
9:35
Speaker 5: it was dangerous, you know. Uh, And uh, that's that's
9:38
Speaker 5: great for us. So we we love that, and you know,
9:41
Speaker 5: he's gonna keep doing his thing. He's locked, he's dialed,
9:43
Speaker 5: and I couldn't be more happy for him hitting for
9:45
Speaker 5: the cycle, especially at home against the Mets. You know,
9:48
Speaker 5: you can't really script it up any better. So that
9:50
Speaker 5: hats off to Harp and for Swoerber. Having the three
9:54
Speaker 5: homer game against pretty tough, pretty tough uh, you know matchups,
10:00
Speaker 5: and then having the homer yesterday open it up for us. Yeah,
10:03
Speaker 5: you know, those two guys at the front of our
10:05
Speaker 5: order just you know, setting the tone for us and
10:11
Speaker 5: Trey as well. You know, Trey had a really good
10:13
Speaker 5: game as well.
10:14
Speaker 4: So it's.
10:16
Speaker 5: A blessing to have those three guys start the game
10:18
Speaker 5: off for us and then the rest of the crew
10:19
Speaker 5: do their thing after. But yeah, those guys really took
10:22
Speaker 5: it upon themselves and put us in a really good
10:24
Speaker 5: situation after that Mets series. You know, that's a really
10:26
Speaker 5: good team over there, and they got a lot of
10:28
Speaker 5: good dudes over there, So it was a big series.
10:30
Speaker 4: For us to win, especially at home.
10:31
Speaker 5: And yeah, it was definitely front running by front run
10:34
Speaker 5: by Kylon Hart.
10:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely the energy there is something that you could
10:40
Speaker 3: feel through the screen. But I do want to ask you,
10:43
Speaker 3: because when you first got traded, when we were playing together,
10:46
Speaker 3: you're playing majority center field. How has that been which
10:49
Speaker 3: you haven't adjust to left field a little bit? Obviously,
10:52
Speaker 3: I know center field you can bounce around, but how's
10:53
Speaker 3: that adjustment been playing left field? Do you feel like
10:56
Speaker 3: it's a situation that's kind of helped you also because
10:58
Speaker 3: you know, like where you're slotting it you can settle
11:00
Speaker 3: in just overall.
11:01
Speaker 5: Or yeah, you know, I feel like I feel like
11:05
Speaker 5: I'm kind of like a chameleon out there in the outfield.
11:08
Speaker 5: I just want to be out there, you know, I
11:10
Speaker 5: just want to find some way, somehow to get out
11:11
Speaker 5: there and get on the field. But we got we
11:14
Speaker 5: got j Crawl and d Hill who go and get
11:17
Speaker 5: it out there. So we we have we got some
11:19
Speaker 5: of the best to do it out there. And uh,
11:21
Speaker 5: you know, we had a do list and right and
11:23
Speaker 5: it really really hurt us losing him and uh, you know,
11:27
Speaker 5: all of our thoughts and all of our uh you know,
11:30
Speaker 5: prayers for sp Spreeder recovery or all you know with
11:33
Speaker 5: him from us, but it's, uh, you know, we're making
11:36
Speaker 5: do with what we have, and we have a really
11:38
Speaker 5: really good team still, and it's uh we got dudes
11:41
Speaker 5: in center field that go and get it, and Rinconas
11:45
Speaker 5: and I in the corner we uh and so say
11:47
Speaker 5: as well as of late, Uh we play our role
11:50
Speaker 5: to the best of to the best of our ability,
11:52
Speaker 5: and just let those guys in center field really go
11:53
Speaker 5: be Gazelle's and just go out there and just flat
11:55
Speaker 5: out go get it. Me personally, I know, I love
11:58
Speaker 5: center field because it's a lot of true reads.
12:00
Speaker 4: You don't have a lot of the hooks and fades
12:03
Speaker 4: and all that.
12:03
Speaker 5: But definitely, over the last two or three years playing
12:06
Speaker 5: a lot of left field has gotten a lot more.
12:08
Speaker 4: Use to it.
12:09
Speaker 5: And uh yeah, I played right field in high school
12:11
Speaker 5: my whole my whole career, so I love the corners,
12:14
Speaker 5: but centerfield definitely, you know, as an outfielder, having that
12:17
Speaker 5: priority just to go get it, you know, you're the
12:20
Speaker 5: captain out there.
12:21
Speaker 4: You always want to be in center field.
12:22
Speaker 5: But we got dudes that do a tremendous job and
12:25
Speaker 5: you know, handle it, handle the job.
12:29
Speaker 4: Tremendously.
12:30
Speaker 5: So it's I'm just thankful to be out there with
12:32
Speaker 5: those guys, and uh, you know, and I'm learning from
12:35
Speaker 5: guys like Crawford, guys like Derek and you know, all
12:38
Speaker 5: the other guys out there that that played really well
12:41
Speaker 5: in the field, and you know, so just I'm trying
12:44
Speaker 5: to sharpen my knife from them and vice versa, you know.
12:47
Speaker 4: So it's a it's it's a good thing we have
12:49
Speaker 4: going on over here.
12:51
Speaker 6: Right.
12:51
Speaker 2: Well, I saw you start in right field the other night,
12:54
Speaker 2: I think it was against the Mets, first game of
12:55
Speaker 2: the series against the Mets, Am I right.
12:57
Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, sir, Yeah.
12:59
Speaker 2: How how much of a change is that, because especially
13:02
Speaker 2: in that game, the sun's a little bit different in
13:05
Speaker 2: right field, that ball changes. Because the reason I'm asking you,
13:08
Speaker 2: the reason I'm asking you is it seems like you
13:11
Speaker 2: might be starting one of those three spots in the
13:14
Speaker 2: All Star Game, which is gonna be in Philly. But
13:16
Speaker 2: the new ballots out, you're number two in voting right now.
13:20
Speaker 2: You were third, now you're number two, So that's just updated.
13:23
Speaker 2: But how much of a change or how tough is that,
13:26
Speaker 2: How tough is that getting pushed out the right field
13:29
Speaker 2: and reading those balls differently off the bat.
13:33
Speaker 4: I don't really don't. I don't look at it as tough.
13:36
Speaker 5: I look at it as just like another opportunity for
13:38
Speaker 5: me to for me to be on the field with
13:41
Speaker 5: those guys that you know, like I said, the veteran
13:45
Speaker 5: led team that I've looked up to for my whole career.
13:47
Speaker 5: So it's a if it's right field one, that's a
13:50
Speaker 5: great you know, it's a short run at home, so
13:52
Speaker 5: you just have to take ten steps.
13:54
Speaker 4: And you're already out there.
13:55
Speaker 5: But I think just being out there with the lineup
13:59
Speaker 5: that we have is just a blessing and for sure
14:02
Speaker 5: plan right, probably one of the first times since high school.
14:04
Speaker 4: It is.
14:05
Speaker 5: It is difficult, but I take a lot of pride
14:10
Speaker 5: in my defensive work. And you know, we have Poto.
14:13
Speaker 5: He's the best man, so he's he makes sure that
14:15
Speaker 5: we're all ready to go, and uh we're not. We're
14:18
Speaker 5: not too worried when when Pod goes in charge. So
14:21
Speaker 5: we do a lot of work and uh, he's getting
14:23
Speaker 5: me ready to play left, center, right, whatever the team

Speaker 3: This year, oh for sure, man. And hearing your story
17:03
Speaker 3: obviously gives me chills. I can resonate with that, you know,
17:05
Speaker 3: given you said something earlier where you said, I'm just
17:08
Speaker 3: being humble, but you know, this is where I belong.
17:11
Speaker 3: And I remember telling that to the Pirates president Frank
17:14
Speaker 3: Coonley one of the first times I got recalled my
17:17
Speaker 3: rookie season. I didn't even know who he was. You know,
17:19
Speaker 3: He's like, Josh me back, you know, not trying to
17:22
Speaker 3: be funny. He's like Josh, to see you back.
17:24
Speaker 6: And I'm just coming back from Triple A.
17:25
Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, this is where I belong and he
17:27
Speaker 3: stops suited up, he goes I like that. But you know,
17:31
Speaker 3: the confidence that you carry, the confidence that I carry,
17:34
Speaker 3: it's one of the reasons we won, you know, kind
17:37
Speaker 3: of got together. I was like, dangn man, Like we
17:40
Speaker 3: drew a lot of similarities. But hearing you talk that,
17:43
Speaker 3: but you know, just gave me chills because it's not
17:46
Speaker 3: anything that you say, oh, I want to be an
17:47
Speaker 3: All Star. You just want the opportunity to go out
17:49
Speaker 3: there to play, to help your team win every night.
17:51
Speaker 3: And it's nice to see you get the recognition for
17:54
Speaker 3: something that I saw a couple of years ago when
17:56
Speaker 3: I told you, like, bro, you're a gamer.
17:57
Speaker 6: You do a lot of things that are intangible.
18:00
Speaker 3: But what would it mean, I know, be vast about
18:02
Speaker 3: the All Star but what would it mean to have
18:04
Speaker 3: your first one be in Philly?
18:07
Speaker 6: Like you know what I mean? Mine was, you know,
18:08
Speaker 6: I had to go to Minnesota.
18:09
Speaker 3: It's like, man, you get an opportunity play in front
18:11
Speaker 3: of the home fans, which is what you do every night,
18:14
Speaker 3: But like, man, what would that mean?
18:17
Speaker 5: Yeah, dude, I mean I'm telling you right now, I
18:20
Speaker 5: got chills all over my whole body right now.
18:22
Speaker 4: And I know I said it before. It's just it's
18:24
Speaker 4: honestly crazy to even think about. Man.
18:27
Speaker 5: Just you know, from the start of my career to
18:30
Speaker 5: this year, it's like it feels like a dream and
18:34
Speaker 5: it feels like it's it feels like it's not real
18:38
Speaker 5: at times. But uh, you know, I think this is
18:40
Speaker 5: just a credit to all the work that myself and
18:43
Speaker 5: all my whole supporting staff, from the hitting coaches to
18:46
Speaker 5: the outfield based running and all my teammates, and it's
18:51
Speaker 5: you know, I couldn't do any of this without them.
18:53
Speaker 5: But you know what it would mean for me, especially
18:55
Speaker 5: to play at home. I mean, dude, there really there
18:58
Speaker 5: really isn't nothing better. The only thing that would be
19:00
Speaker 5: better is won the World Series, most definitely, but uh,
19:03
Speaker 5: you know, being able to be in the All Star
19:06
Speaker 5: Game and play in front of your home crowd that
19:08
Speaker 5: pulls for you day in and day out and each night,
19:10
Speaker 5: it's it really feels like a dream. And uh, I'm
19:14
Speaker 5: just uh, I'm really, uh, really excited for the future.
19:18
Speaker 5: But like I said, a lot more work needs to
19:19
Speaker 5: be put in, and uh, we have a lot more
19:21
Speaker 5: a lot more room to grow and uh, to get
19:23
Speaker 5: to where we want to be, especially for you personally.
19:26
Speaker 4: But it's uh, it's been. It's been a heck of
19:28
Speaker 4: a ride this year.
19:31
Speaker 5: And yeah, playing playing the All Star Game at home,
19:33
Speaker 5: it would it would just it would be a dream
19:34
Speaker 5: come true. And I'm for everythingful and grateful for it.
19:37
Speaker 6: Well and everybody else, go give them one.
19:42
Speaker 2: I love that, Love that, Marshie. I got two for you.
19:45
Speaker 2: One's weird, one's weird, and one's just normal. First, a
19:48
Speaker 2: weird one because I know you'd like to get a
19:50
Speaker 2: little weird sometimes. Have you seen Zach Wheeler's rib that
19:56
Speaker 2: he got taken out and he kept?
19:59
Speaker 5: To be honest? Know, because that stuff creeps me out.
20:02
Speaker 5: I don't. It's just not my things. Yeah, No, I
20:08
Speaker 5: know it's been talked about plenty of times, but I
20:11
Speaker 5: have not personally seen it myself, and I think I
20:14
Speaker 5: would like for her to stay that way.
20:16
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, so you like things getting weird, but you're
20:19
Speaker 2: not going to go that weird. I get that. And
20:21
