Latest / Foul Territory / Mark DeRosa's viral comments, Team USA's WBC fate on the line
Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: Charger Mound is presented by Fox Won. That's where you
- 0:07Speaker 1: can catch the drama that is going down this evening.
- 0:13Speaker 2: Team USA is Italian. Now, aj you're all in spaghetti
- 0:19Speaker 2: and meatballs for life. Baby.
- 0:21Speaker 1: You need Team Italy to win and then you can
- 0:23Speaker 1: cruise to the next spot. But they are not in
- 0:25Speaker 1: control of their own destiny. Why because they lost. They
- 0:29Speaker 1: were getting crushed eight nothing. And then during the game,
- 0:34Speaker 1: a viral quote from an MLB network show that had
- 0:38Speaker 1: Mark de Rosa on it went freaking wild as people
- 0:41Speaker 1: were questioning some of the decisions that he made in
- 0:45Speaker 1: the game.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Your thoughts, can you explain this?
- 0:51Speaker 3: I know if Italy wins USA is in correct, but
- 0:55Speaker 3: the other one that can you explain it is because
- 0:57Speaker 3: I've read it different in different places. If Mexico has
- 1:00Speaker 3: to win by five runs or they have to score
- 1:02Speaker 3: five runs to knock the US out, no, either way,
- 1:08Speaker 3: So they have to win by five runs.
- 1:11Speaker 4: No, if they score five runs. If they score five
- 1:13Speaker 4: runs or more, US is in because that means Italy
- 1:17Speaker 4: gave up more runs than per.
- 1:20Speaker 3: Inning, per out, per out right per out Yes, okay,
- 1:24Speaker 3: so then and then my question would be is if
- 1:30Speaker 3: you're Italy and you can never do this, but I
- 1:33Speaker 3: mean you got to hold them down, right, like you gotta.
- 1:36Speaker 3: You're like, hey, guys, don't score too many on us. Yeah,
- 1:42Speaker 3: it's so weird, it's so cringey to even think about,
- 1:45Speaker 3: but it's it's interesting because this was supposed to be
- 1:49Speaker 3: the greatest team USA has ever assembled in one bad
- 1:52Speaker 3: night by h Noelan McLain and Ryan Yarborough and next
- 1:56Speaker 3: thing you know, they can't. The worst part is they
- 1:59Speaker 3: have know saying this. They just sit there and watch
- 2:02Speaker 3: the game, so they are rooting for Italy to win
- 2:05Speaker 3: or Mexico to win four to one, three to one,
- 2:08Speaker 3: two to one. It just it's a it's a weird dynamic.
- 2:12Speaker 3: And I'm gonna let crowds go before we get into
- 2:14Speaker 3: the Mark de Rosa stuff because it's just this whole this,
- 2:17Speaker 3: this is not.
- 2:18Speaker 5: The way it was supposed to go.
- 2:19Speaker 3: And I read Ken's articles Price Ken on The Athletic
- 2:22Speaker 3: this morning, and he's right, this is not They shouldn't
- 2:24Speaker 3: be in the situation. And yes, you can question the
- 2:27Speaker 3: lineup things, you can question this, but it kind of
- 2:30Speaker 3: goes back to what we talked about at the beginning.
- 2:32Speaker 3: They got kind of caught with a couple of pitching
- 2:34Speaker 3: decisions because of the way they had to line guys up.
- 2:37Speaker 4: Yeah, you had you had NOA mcclan going before this
- 2:41Speaker 4: tournament ever even started. But you also have NOA McClain
- 2:43Speaker 4: going in the finals if US is able to make
- 2:47Speaker 4: it to the finals. So that was a predetermined decision.
- 2:50Speaker 4: That's That's not all on the Rosa. But the whole time,
- 2:53Speaker 4: all we've heard is the fact that it's a vibe.
- 2:57Speaker 4: You know, we got the captain, we got Aaron Judge.
- 2:59Speaker 4: He's been talking about these guys. You know, everybody's on board.
- 3:03Speaker 4: You know, I've never seen such a together group. All
- 3:05Speaker 4: things that are not anything to do with walking once
- 3:09Speaker 4: in the game, giving up home runs to Jack Caglione
- 3:13Speaker 4: and the six, seven, eight, nine hitters for UH for Italy,
- 3:18Speaker 4: or the fact that they brought Yarborough, none of that
- 3:21Speaker 4: has It's all been talked about.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Vibe Vibe, Vibe vibe.
- 3:25Speaker 4: And then dro comes on to the show and says
- 3:30Speaker 4: exactly what AJ. So, AJ and d Row are completely
- 3:34Speaker 4: on board with each other. This is the first time
- 3:36Speaker 4: I've ever been able to say that because they both
- 3:39Speaker 4: thought the game was just an exhibition and it really
- 3:42Speaker 4: didn't matter who won.
- 3:46Speaker 5: Wait whoa, whoa whoa? Wait what hold on? No, no, no,
- 3:49Speaker 5: no wait you said it's no well I did not.
- 3:52Speaker 3: I said the tournament is an exhibition. It's not the
- 3:55Speaker 3: World Series. What dro said was that he got he spoke,
- 4:02Speaker 3: knew that they had to win, but he misspoke because
- 4:05Speaker 3: he got what holda? Anyways, by the way, you're talking
- 4:09Speaker 3: about team Italy before we dig into the d ro thing.
- 4:12Speaker 3: You know who beat the US last night a couple
- 4:16Speaker 3: of white socks and an ex Gator. So I mean,
- 4:20Speaker 3: if there's one way to go, at least you're going
- 4:22Speaker 3: down to the White Sox and some gators. Is ever
- 4:25Speaker 3: the ones who hit the homers.
- 4:28Speaker 1: Let's get to the clip that went ultra viral before
- 4:32Speaker 1: the game.
- 4:35Speaker 2: A ton of respect for Italy. It's it's weird. We
- 4:37Speaker 2: want to win.
- 4:38Speaker 6: We want to win this game, even though our tickets
- 4:40Speaker 6: punched at a quarterfinals because Mexico plays Italy actually tomorrow.
- 4:45Speaker 6: So this the way the way the schedule lines up,
- 4:48Speaker 6: this is an important game for US.
- 4:52Speaker 2: Okay.
- 4:53Speaker 1: And then after the game he said, hmm, he misspoke,
- 4:56Speaker 1: like he knew what was going on. Did they also
- 4:59Speaker 1: know the run scoring scenarios that were going on. I
- 5:03Speaker 1: know they're confusing, but if you're at the tournament, you
- 5:06Speaker 1: should be super dialed into all of that stuff.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Why was Bryce Harper sitting?
- 5:12Speaker 1: There's others that I think you could make more of
- 5:13Speaker 1: a debate against, Like, Okay, you're sitting Alex Bregman for
- 5:17Speaker 1: Gunner Henderson. Gunner Henderson's really damn good too. Ernie Clement
- 5:22Speaker 1: was a postseason freaking superstar. He's playing instead of Bryce
- 5:29Speaker 1: Terrain right then Terrain enters later in the game.
- 5:32Speaker 2: You can at least make some debates there.
- 5:34Speaker 1: For me, I don't think you can make a Harper
- 5:35Speaker 1: versus Goldschmidt debate in any case at this point in
- 5:38Speaker 1: their careers. And I actually was under the impression that
- 5:41Speaker 1: Goldie was added as I think the last position player
- 5:45Speaker 1: because he would be one of the few position players
- 5:47Speaker 1: that understood he might only.
- 5:49Speaker 2: Get an at bat or two. It must win games.
- 5:53Speaker 1: They had to tune ups, which are still important. You
- 5:56Speaker 1: can't get upset by Brazil or Great Britain, and then
- 5:58Speaker 1: you have must win games against Mexico and Italy.
- 6:02Speaker 2: Why is Bryce Harper not starting? Bryce Harper? And then
- 6:08Speaker 2: if you're d row and he says, oh, well, you know,
- 6:11Speaker 2: the guys that.
- 6:12Speaker 1: I put in hit and I wanted to get the
- 6:15Speaker 1: other guys warmed up for later in the tournament. I mean,
- 6:19Speaker 1: you might not be in the tournament after today. So
- 6:26Speaker 1: it's not like Goldsman had a bad game, AJ But
- 6:28Speaker 1: like what if Bryce Harper had the game of his
- 6:31Speaker 1: life and had two homers or something. We're never gonna know,
- 6:34Speaker 1: but do or die game for the entire tournament. Like
- 6:37Speaker 1: that's how you have to look at you last night.
- 6:39Speaker 1: Do you want Bryce Harper or Paul Goldsmith in a
- 6:41Speaker 1: big spot at this point in their careers.
- 6:44Speaker 2: You should give me an instant answer.
- 6:45Speaker 3: I hope, yeah, it's I mean it's Harper.
- 6:50Speaker 5: But I mean you know the quote about they hit.
- 6:52Speaker 3: Sure, you know, but then why did you pinch hit
- 6:55Speaker 3: Bryce Harper and Bryce terrang later in the game right?
- 7:00Speaker 3: If they were if they were hitting right, and they were,
- 7:01Speaker 3: they were so good. Uh, I don't know, man, this
- 7:05Speaker 3: just it's just not what we expected. I think that's
- 7:07Speaker 3: why we were so shocked by this whole thing, is
- 7:09Speaker 3: it's just not what we were expecting. And I don't
- 7:12Speaker 3: know that where's the person. It's kind of like the
- 7:15Speaker 3: Chris Remember we brought up the Chris Guetz switch hitter.
- 7:17Speaker 5: Thing with Acunya.
- 7:18Speaker 3: Where is where is whoever the USA PR person is?
- 7:21Speaker 3: I don't even I don't even remember who it was
- 7:23Speaker 3: when I was just there saying, hey, dero, that's not right,
- 7:28Speaker 3: Like no, like after the game against Mexico, someone should
- 7:32Speaker 3: have been in his ear saying, hey, you, like, we
- 7:34Speaker 3: really need to win this game now. They said that
- 7:36Speaker 3: they them, you know, hanging out after the in the
- 7:38Speaker 3: locker room afterwards. But then you hear d Ro's quote
- 7:41Speaker 3: where he says, hey, there's some guys what he say
- 7:43Speaker 3: dragging or what he says here he used some weird
- 7:46Speaker 3: quote about there was some guys dragging or what I
- 7:48Speaker 3: forget exactly what he said, right, And then people instantly
- 7:52Speaker 3: and just go to well, they were in the locker
- 7:54Speaker 3: room till one in the morning the night before, right,
- 7:56Speaker 3: So it's just like, I don't know, it's just listen,
- 8:02Speaker 3: We're I'm.
- 8:03Speaker 5: A USA fan, Croutch, you're a USA fan.
- 8:05Speaker 3: There's no excuses. Italy beat them fine. Michael Lorenzen, you
- 8:12Speaker 3: shoved last night four and two thirds shutout baseball.
- 8:16Speaker 5: You shove.
- 8:16Speaker 3: Good for you you're a good dude. Good for you.
- 8:19Speaker 3: There is no excuses for why this happened. Italy beat
- 8:22Speaker 3: the USA, fine, but going into that game, you have
- 8:25Speaker 3: to know that you have to win that game. From
- 8:29Speaker 3: the moment the Mexico game is over, there can't be
- 8:31Speaker 3: any thought that, whod we can relax now, No, we
- 8:34Speaker 3: have to win this game to advance for sure, and
- 8:38Speaker 3: it didn't happen.
- 8:43Speaker 1: Well, you might be following, you know where I'm going
- 8:48Speaker 1: here crat tickets for the World Baseball Classic, thinking you're
- 8:51Speaker 1: going to get some USA action.
- 8:53Speaker 2: You might not, but you might, right.
- 8:56Speaker 1: So, there's actually going to be a lot of fluctuation
- 8:58Speaker 1: on Sea Geek right now, so keep an eye on it.
- 9:01Speaker 1: Territory ten for the code ten percent off tickets there
- 9:04Speaker 1: and over thirty five million downloads.
- 9:06Speaker 2: It's the number one rated ticketing app.
- 9:08Speaker 1: But if you're hanging right now and you're watching US
- 9:10Speaker 1: Slave and you happen to have a chance to go
- 9:13Speaker 1: see Dominican Republic against Venezuela this evening, I highly recommend
- 9:18Speaker 1: it in Florida. I think that Italy against Mexico has
- 9:22Speaker 1: suddenly become a much hotter ticket. So if you'd like
- 9:25Speaker 1: to check that out on seat geek and find the
- 9:28Speaker 1: green for the best value.
- 9:30Speaker 2: Then do that, or.
- 9:32Speaker 4: They already have the quarterfinals, you don't know who the
- 9:35Speaker 4: opponents are gonna be. Korea is definitely one of those
- 9:37Speaker 4: that's gonna be in there, and then you'll figure out
- 9:39Speaker 4: who's playing who in the quarterfinals.
- 9:42Speaker 5: Just go in there.
- 9:42Speaker 4: Check it out because when these like the Dominican Venezuela
- 9:46Speaker 4: game in Miami, like, you got to get a seat,
- 9:49Speaker 4: and you got to get a good seat because it
- 9:51Speaker 4: is gonna be packed. It's gonna be loud. Half an inning,
- 9:54Speaker 4: one side's gonna be standing up. The other half of
- 9:56Speaker 4: the inning, the other side's gonna be standing up.
- 9:59Speaker 2: Yep.
- 9:59Speaker 1: And if you you think that Italy is going to
- 10:01Speaker 1: win in USA is okay and they're going to advance,
- 10:03Speaker 1: then tickets are probably going to go up too. So
- 10:05Speaker 1: could be a nice little investment or a good time
- 10:08Speaker 1: if you're trying to get tickets to it to check
- 10:10Speaker 1: that out.
- 10:11Speaker 2: So the code for you is Territory one zero.
- 10:13Speaker 1: Ten percent off your next set of tickets at seat
- 10:16Speaker 1: geek with that promo code. Make sure you click the
- 10:18Speaker 1: link in the description to download the app and have
- 10:20Speaker 1: the code automatically add it to your account and then
- 10:23Speaker 1: you can.
- 10:23Speaker 2: Use it later if you'd like props to seat Geek.
- 10:27Speaker 4: I guess I'm not going to put it on the players.
- 10:29Speaker 4: I'm not even going to put it on lineup, construction,
- 10:32Speaker 4: team control anything like that. I'm going to put it
- 10:34Speaker 4: on every one of those coaches. And d Row's the
- 10:37Speaker 4: top of that. It's d Row who doesn't have managerial experience,
- 10:42Speaker 4: Matt Holliday who doesn't have managerial experience, Andy Pettitt who
- 10:46Speaker 4: doesn't have it, isn't David Ross, isn't David Ross on there.
- 10:50Speaker 4: He's the one guy that has the managerial experience. So
- 10:53Speaker 4: to me, it's guys in that room. That's why you
- 10:57Speaker 4: have that whole room that need to make sure they
- 11:00Speaker 4: know that, yes, the runs are the biggest thing. Did
- 11:05Speaker 4: they know. Maybe they'll come out and say that they
- 11:07Speaker 4: didn't know. All the signs starting with d Ro talking
- 11:13Speaker 4: like yeah, you know we do want to beat Italy,
- 11:16Speaker 4: but you know our tickets punched to the quarterfinals, to
- 11:22Speaker 4: warming up Clayton Kershaw to you're down already with Noel
- 11:27Speaker 4: McLain on the mound and you went to Ryan Yarborough,
- 11:30Speaker 4: which I get it. Ryan Yarborough does have to pitch,
- 11:33Speaker 4: and you know you have to find some innings. But
- 11:37Speaker 4: at that point you're in a panic mode in the
- 11:40Speaker 4: sense of whoa, I'm going to Mason Miller, I'm going
- 11:44Speaker 4: to Brad Keller, and I know Brad Keller joinst one
- 11:46Speaker 4: in the center field and and you know there's things
- 11:50Speaker 4: on the field that happened. But to me, when it's
- 11:54Speaker 4: managed and taken care of in a certain way, I
- 11:57Speaker 4: don't believe it was misspoken, I don't believe he misspoke.
- 12:01Speaker 3: By the way, Also, Scott, can I just say this
- 12:04Speaker 3: about listen. Ryan yarbro is a good picture, a really
- 12:07Speaker 3: good picture. Nolan McLain is a young pitcher, he's got
- 12:09Speaker 3: great stuff. Right, But this is what we talked about.
- 12:12Speaker 3: Remember where I said they're going they might get caught.
- 12:14Speaker 3: How can they get in trouble? They're gonna get caught, right,
- 12:17Speaker 3: They kind of got caught in this game because Yarborough
- 12:19Speaker 3: needed his innings. Molan McClain maybe stayed out there a
- 12:22Speaker 3: little bit too long than he should have. Right, Why
- 12:25Speaker 3: because they needed to get their pitches. And now you
- 12:27Speaker 3: can say they can go to the bullpen, but that's
- 12:29Speaker 3: not the same as pitching in the game.
- 12:32Speaker 5: I don't care who you are, so what happens.
- 12:34Speaker 3: The script was McLain to Yarborough and then to get
- 12:38Speaker 3: to the relievers, hopefully they have a lead. They didn't
- 12:40Speaker 3: have a lead, and then they just kept giving up
- 12:42Speaker 3: runs and before you know it, they're down ain't nothing,
- 12:44Speaker 3: and you're going, uh, this is a little bit late.
- 12:46Speaker 3: And then when they say they did it, they knew
- 12:48Speaker 3: the situation, well that they knew the situation then Clayton,
- 12:51Speaker 3: and from the begin go they said, Clayton Kershaw is
- 12:53Speaker 3: there only in an absolute emergency. The only emergency was
- 12:57Speaker 3: you cannot afford to give up another run. And then
- 12:59Speaker 3: they you know, and they had Clayton Kershaw warming up.
- 13:01Speaker 3: That's where I think is what Krat's saying is like,
- 13:04Speaker 3: I don't know that they played out all the possibilities
- 13:07Speaker 3: of this game. Like like I always say, when I
- 13:09Speaker 3: talk to Let's I'll use aj Hinch because I think
- 13:11Speaker 3: he's one of the best managers. When I talked to
- 13:13Speaker 3: aj Hinch for the playoff game before regular season game,
- 13:17Speaker 3: he's played out almost every possibility. Now something crazy happening, yes,
- 13:20Speaker 3: but he's played out every possibility and he's like, if
- 13:23Speaker 3: this happens, I'm going here. If this happens, I'm going here.
- 13:24Speaker 3: If this happens, I'm going here. If this seemed like,
- 13:27Speaker 3: all right, we're following this script no matter what. Oh
- 13:29Speaker 3: my gosh, we're losing. What do we do? Oh my gosh,
- 13:31Speaker 3: we don't want to use another picture because of the
- 13:33Speaker 3: run differential. But we don't know about the run differential.
- 13:35Speaker 3: So let's just get Clayton up because we're probably gonna
- 13:37Speaker 3: lose this game anyways. And that's not not on Clayton Kershew,
- 13:40Speaker 3: but we all, I mean, Dero said it, everyone said it.
- 13:42Speaker 3: He's only there in case things go completely hey, haywire.
- 13:46Speaker 3: And this was not the game where they could afford
- 13:48Speaker 3: to give up anymore. Now they're basically paying the price
- 13:52Speaker 3: and all they can do is sit there in their
- 13:53Speaker 3: hotel and watch and pray that they get through.
- 13:56Speaker 1: I've got another one where I'm going to be highly critical.
- 13:58Speaker 1: I said it on this show several days go. Trek
- 14:00Speaker 1: Scooble said he would have pitched against Team Mexico that
- 14:03Speaker 1: would have enabled them to use Paul Skeans against Team Italy.
- 14:06Speaker 1: That would have also set up Skimes for the final.
- 14:08Speaker 2: You can make the case.
- 14:09Speaker 1: Hey, you've got to get to the final first, so
- 14:10Speaker 1: Skeian should pitch in the semifinal.
- 14:12Speaker 2: Okay, but wait, let's backtrack.
- 14:14Speaker 1: You've got to get to the fucking quarter final first,
- 14:17Speaker 1: So Scooble should pitch in the important game and Skian
- 14:20Speaker 1: should pitch in the important game. They had that option,
- 14:23Speaker 1: that option was given to them. They decided, Nah, we'll
- 14:26Speaker 1: pitch Schooble against Great Britain and then we'll go McClain
- 14:31Speaker 1: after Skeins. So let's que up a couple of tweets
- 14:34Speaker 1: here because people were losing their shit last night. I
- 14:39Speaker 1: have never seen such a storm and so many people
- 14:42Speaker 1: all agreeing on how they felt as if the way
- 14:44Speaker 1: that this is all going down with USA is not
- 14:47Speaker 1: constructed properly, because I mean, obviously I'm going off people
- 14:51Speaker 1: that are US fans. Everyone's agreeing. They don't feel like
- 14:55Speaker 1: forget just the right pitching talent in place, which is
- 14:58Speaker 1: always the question mark. It's like, are they being deployed correctly?
- 15:02Speaker 1: JJ Cooper said MLB Network conducted the most significant newsworthy
- 15:05Speaker 1: interview in WBC history. They had a manager saying his
- 15:07Speaker 1: team in advance when they hadn't, and they took that
- 15:09Speaker 1: video down as soon as they realized it's significance and newsworthiness.
- 15:12Speaker 1: By the way, after going viral for that, they then
- 15:17Speaker 1: put the video back up.
- 15:20Speaker 2: This is interesting.
- 15:21Speaker 1: Yes, As I said last night on the postgame show,
- 15:25Speaker 1: which I advised everyone to watch, was full of fires
- 15:27Speaker 1: krats Todd Father and me right after that game. It's
- 15:31Speaker 1: twenty twenty six. You can't hide taking a video down
- 15:34Speaker 1: hours later. It's going to make it worse. It's one
- 15:38Speaker 1: thing if there was something inappropriate, like nudity or whatever.
- 15:41Speaker 1: This was just someone misspoke. You gotta leave it there
- 15:43Speaker 1: or otherwise you make it more fire.
- 15:45Speaker 2: Part two.
- 15:47Speaker 1: I've worked with dro for hundreds, if not thousands of
- 15:51Speaker 1: hours in my life, A friend of mine.
- 15:54Speaker 2: He's a good dude. I can vouch for that.
- 15:57Speaker 1: He's a fun guy, good hang, great dude to get
- 15:59Speaker 1: drinks with. Junie Lee making a point here, USA head coach,
- 16:03Speaker 1: two times Stanley Cup champ, USA Basketball head coach, four
- 16:07Speaker 1: time Finals champ. US Soccer head coach, Champions League runner up,
- 16:11Speaker 1: USA Baseball manager, talk show host.
- 16:13Speaker 2: This is just a serious statement here, Aj.
- 16:17Speaker 1: We all have been around Mark de Rosa plenty of
- 16:20Speaker 1: times he is not a big league manager. What happens
- 16:23Speaker 1: last night is people start rattling off names like where's
- 16:26Speaker 1: Bruce Bochie?
- 16:27Speaker 2: You could ask.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Someone like that and you could come up with ten
- 16:31Speaker 1: to fifteen other names of decorated former managers who have
- 16:36Speaker 1: been in these spots and who could manage this? Should
- 16:40Speaker 1: a non big league manager be in this spot? For
- 16:44Speaker 1: Team USA?
- 16:46Speaker 3: Where's Buck Showalter? You mentioned Buck? Who's on her show? Scott?
- 16:49Speaker 5: What the heck?
- 16:50Speaker 2: I just gave you one.
- 16:51Speaker 1: I'm not going to go through a list of twenty
- 16:53Speaker 1: and I saved Buck for you at order.
- 16:55Speaker 3: By the way, Also, Bruce Bochi managed Team France, so
- 16:58Speaker 3: I don't know if you can you can go for
- 17:00Speaker 3: French to American.
- 17:01Speaker 5: By the way, I don't know.
- 17:01Speaker 2: If that's so thank you.
- 17:03Speaker 3: I mean, I mean we did invent the French for
- 17:06Speaker 3: even though the French get the credit, So I mean,
- 17:08Speaker 3: you know, something like that. But Leland won the year
- 17:11Speaker 3: they won, Jim Leland was the manager. Let's not forget right.
- 17:13Speaker 3: In twenty seventeen they won. They had Jim Leland, who
- 17:15Speaker 3: managed a lot in the big leagues and had a
- 17:17Speaker 3: lot of success. The year they won the Olympic medal
- 17:20Speaker 3: two thousand, the gold medal. Guess who the manager was,
- 17:22Speaker 3: Tommy Lesorda, who kind of had some had a nice
- 17:25Speaker 3: big league run as a manager. Right, listen, This is
- 17:28Speaker 3: not a knock on Mark Derossa. I do not I
- 17:31Speaker 3: do like dro and I think he listened. I talked
- 17:33Speaker 3: to Dro. I think he's great. I just it's just
- 17:36Speaker 3: a weird situation because he's been put between a rock
- 17:38Speaker 3: and a hard place. And this is not an excuse,
- 17:40Speaker 3: but he doesn't know. He's never he's done it one
- 17:42Speaker 3: time in last time in the twenty twenty three and
- 17:45Speaker 3: they said they worked on this for years.
- 17:47Speaker 5: They said they set it up. So I don't know.
- 17:49Speaker 5: I just wish they would have won the game.
- 17:51Speaker 3: You know who, they would have won the game, maybe
- 17:52Speaker 3: if Adley Rutchman was there, and then he could have
- 17:55Speaker 3: been maybe in the game. I don't know, but I
- 17:57Speaker 3: don't know. I just wish they would have won. That
- 17:59Speaker 3: was if they would have won. Nobody's talking about any
- 18:01Speaker 3: of this.
- 18:03Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, while by the way, you get ready for
- 18:06Speaker 1: Attlee Rutchman. Let's just talk Kratz to me for a
- 18:08Speaker 1: moment here, Kratz, let's finish with this, we need to
- 18:11Speaker 1: spin it forward. People in the chat asking, hey, what's
- 18:14Speaker 1: the deal with Mexico Italy tonight? Mexico's favored by two
- 18:17Speaker 1: and a half fronts, and we were trying to figure
- 18:20Speaker 1: out what the pitching was going to look like.
- 18:21Speaker 2: Do you know who's starting?
- 18:22Speaker 1: Javier Assad He can record big league outs. Aranola going
- 18:26Speaker 1: on the other side. This is going to be a
- 18:27Speaker 1: good matchup, and there, I would say, is a fifty
- 18:30Speaker 1: to fifty chance that the nightmare for USA does play out.
- 18:35Speaker 1: Mexico could win this game for three and the US
- 18:40Speaker 1: has to sit there watch bite nails and be the
- 18:44Speaker 1: biggest fan of Team Italy of all time.
- 18:47Speaker 5: Four four to three.
- 18:49Speaker 4: I mean, just just look at what the line is.
- 18:52Speaker 4: The lines is seven and a half.
- 18:54Speaker 2: So it's that's why I said four three dude.
- 18:57Speaker 4: Yeah, it's projecting to be a low scoring game because
- 19:02Speaker 4: they understand what's at stake. Both teams are going to
- 19:07Speaker 4: empty their clip as much as they're allowed with pitching
- 19:10Speaker 4: restrictions and all that stuff. They're going to empty their
- 19:13Speaker 4: clip to make it to the next round.
- 19:17Speaker 1: Hey, so let's finish with that. We're seeing it right now.
- 19:19Speaker 1: US advances if Italy wins or Mexico allows six plus
- 19:22Speaker 1: runs or Italy allows five plus runs. Keep in mind
- 19:26Speaker 1: this is in regular format, not if it goes to
- 19:29Speaker 1: extra innings, because then there's other shit. Mexico advances with
- 19:33Speaker 1: a win and allowing five runs or less, Italy advances
- 19:38Speaker 1: with a winner allowing four or fewer runs to Mexico.
- 19:44Speaker 2: Good luck.

- 21:27Speaker 1: Canada one. That was a good game they won by
- 21:29Speaker 1: a run over Puerto Rico. Someone was coming at me saying,
- 21:34Speaker 1: you said Puerto Rico doesn't care about that game. No,
- 21:36Speaker 1: it's not that they don't care, but I'm saying like
- 21:38Speaker 1: you want Edwin Diaz for the game before when they
- 21:40Speaker 1: were able to clinch. That was actually a clinching scenario,
- 21:43Speaker 1: not a fake one like US Israel one. Good job
- 21:46Speaker 1: by KP. The parlay for Crats didn't hit. So we
- 21:50Speaker 1: do have money bags, just our little WBC money bags,
- 21:55Speaker 1: and let's set up the evening.
- 22:00Speaker 2: Hey, j would you like to go first?
- 22:03Speaker 5: Sure? I didn't even want to bet on the Mexico Italy.
- 22:06Speaker 4: Game, so I went, uh, you don't have your mic,
- 22:11Speaker 4: so I'll go.
- 22:15Speaker 2: Whoa whoa.
- 22:16Speaker 1: That is going to be very difficult for the editor
- 22:18Speaker 1: for the podcast in post, but Crats, you're up.
- 22:21Speaker 4: But I will go with the over in the the
- 22:24Speaker 4: clash between Cuba and Canada both two and one teams.
- 22:29Speaker 4: Cal Quantrill's going for Canada and I can't say the
- 22:33Speaker 4: Cuba guy's last name, Moniela, I think is what it is.
- 22:37Speaker 4: But I'm taking the over at eight and a half.
- 22:39Speaker 4: It's coming out at minus one oh five.
- 22:42Speaker 2: Okay, you think Quantrill is gonna get hit.
- 22:45Speaker 4: I just think that he'll be out before and I
- 22:48Speaker 4: think their bullpen is too much, and I think Cuba
- 22:51Speaker 4: wants to take this game down. There's a little bit
- 22:53Speaker 4: of a little bit of animosity between Cuba and Canada.
- 22:56Speaker 4: Canada loves is good at ruffling feathers in the WBC, is.
- 23:02Speaker 2: There animosity that I don't know what in Canada.
- 23:05Speaker 4: Do what when they play against each other? I mean
- 23:09Speaker 4: they obviously everybody knows about clearly.
- 23:15Speaker 5: Hey what, oh, I didn't say Canada. That's what you
- 23:17Speaker 5: just said.
- 23:18Speaker 3: Crat said Canadians like the ruffle feathers, and he doesn't
- 23:22Speaker 3: like Canada Canadians.
- 23:23Speaker 1: South Park episode blame Canada, Phillips the famous South episode.
- 23:29Speaker 1: Most kids don't even know about that anymore.
- 23:31Speaker 2: H A j you're at uh.
- 23:34Speaker 3: I am going over ten and a half in the
- 23:36Speaker 3: d R first Venezuela. Not because I think that they're
- 23:38Speaker 3: going to score ten and a half. I'm just rooting
- 23:40Speaker 3: for it for a lot of homers.
- 23:42Speaker 5: Why because I.
- 23:43Speaker 3: Want to see that all the parties they throw in
- 23:44Speaker 3: the celebrations when everyone.
- 23:46Speaker 5: Hits a homer, like I'm fear for it.
- 23:49Speaker 3: Like every time a dude hits a homer, they do
- 23:51Speaker 3: something crazy on the field and they throw confetti and
- 23:55Speaker 3: stop and eat. Like we've talked to Junior Camerania all
- 23:58Speaker 3: the time. They stop and eat a Barbie, thank you
- 24:00Speaker 3: Ribs at second base, and I am here for it.
- 24:03Speaker 3: So today in Miami, imagine this atmosphere, dr vers Venezuela.
- 24:07Speaker 3: I hope they score two hundred runs in this game
- 24:09Speaker 3: and everyone hits.
- 24:10Speaker 2: Homes, everybody celebrates.
- 24:13Speaker 1: That game would take nine hours because if everybody hits homers. No,
- 24:17Speaker 1: I'm fine with it too. I'm here for it. When
- 24:20Speaker 1: it's crazy and it's good. Then the long games are okay.
- 24:24Speaker 1: When it's regular season, you know, seven to two game,
- 24:28Speaker 1: and it took four and a half hours. Back when
- 24:29Speaker 1: I used to call game every week, that was a
- 24:31Speaker 1: little more frustrating with the pace.
- 24:33Speaker 2: But I digress.
- 24:35Speaker 1: Over seven and a half runs or no, no under,
- 24:38Speaker 1: sorry under under seven and a half runs for Italy
- 24:40Speaker 1: and Mexico. I think the drama will be on tonight.
- 24:44Speaker 1: Mexico is favored by two and a half, so, right,
- 24:46Speaker 1: I could see this.
- 24:47Speaker 2: I'm kind of.
- 24:48Speaker 1: Headshing this, right, So if we hit the over, it's
- 24:52Speaker 1: likely that the US advances. If not, then I guess
- 24:55Speaker 1: I win some money. That's called a hedge. That makes
- 24:57Speaker 1: me feel better. So I'll go one five to one
- 24:59Speaker 1: one hundred there, because I could see that scenario playing out.
- 25:02Speaker 1: It could be a close, low scoring game and Italy
- 25:05Speaker 1: could win, but seven and a half is a pretty
- 25:08Speaker 1: low mark, and I'm still going to go under that.

- 26:31Speaker 1: vent for your WBC frustration if you're a Team USA fan.
- 26:36Speaker 1: If you're not, then you're probably feeling pretty good right now.
- 26:39Speaker 1: But it is going to be nail biting time and
- 26:42Speaker 1: it is going to be a lot of Go Italy Go.
- 26:44Speaker 1: The US is a big, big Italy fan tonight. The
- 26:47Speaker 1: US is Italian this evening. I think that was the
- 26:50Speaker 1: joke I put yesterday and the postgame show postgame shows.
- 26:53Speaker 1: By the way, tonight we will be on live. There's
- 26:57Speaker 1: a couple scenarios. We're like the WBC know the scenarios.
- 27:02Speaker 1: So after the Mexico Italy game, this is most likely.
- 27:07Speaker 1: Don't hold me to this one. We would go live
- 27:10Speaker 1: if the US is eliminated. If not, we would do
- 27:13Speaker 1: what we regularly were scheduled to do, which is go
- 27:16Speaker 1: live after Dominican Republic against Venezuela, and then, of course
- 27:20Speaker 1: in that postgame show we would also talk about what
- 27:22Speaker 1: happened with Mexico and with h Italy.
- 27:24Speaker 2: There are two.
- 27:25Speaker 1: Really must see games. They're staggered about an hour apart.
- 27:29Speaker 1: You know where to find them. Fox one app. They'll
- 27:32Speaker 1: be on Fox and FS one as well. But if
- 27:34Speaker 1: not for you, Fox one app.
- 27:36Speaker 2: Is the spot. Also, what else did I want to say?
- 27:40Speaker 3: Oh?
- 27:41Speaker 1: Real quick, so we have two minutes, AJ just your
- 27:43Speaker 1: thirty second take on the end of the Cal Riley stuff.
- 27:47Speaker 1: We were going to do a whole segment on it.
- 27:48Speaker 1: We just ran out of time. You weren't on with
- 27:50Speaker 1: us yesterday. I'm assuming that you would have done the
- 27:53Speaker 1: same thing as Cal. But then afterward, would you have
- 27:55Speaker 1: called Randy and been like, hey, dude, but we're still teammates,
- 27:57Speaker 1: like we're good.
- 27:58Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it wasn't that bad.
- 28:00Speaker 5: It would have been before though you were you.
- 28:03Speaker 3: Would have been like hey, man, like like I had
- 28:05Speaker 3: a conversation with another ex player about this. And you
- 28:08Speaker 3: always said hi to people, but you didn't make it obvious, right,
- 28:11Speaker 3: Like you didn't walk up and shake their I mean,
- 28:14Speaker 3: I get what they're doing. It's a good show of
- 28:15Speaker 3: sportsmanship and all that stuff. But I always just kind
- 28:18Speaker 3: of kept my head down and people, you know, say
- 28:20Speaker 3: something to keep your mask on, and and man, hope
- 28:22Speaker 3: everything is good, especially guys you know like that. So
- 28:25Speaker 3: I never played against I mean I played against X teammates,
- 28:27Speaker 3: but never teammates and on a stage like this, So listen, man,
- 28:32Speaker 3: I have no I have no problem with Kyl did like,
- 28:34Speaker 3: uh who I forget which one of our guests said,
- 28:38Speaker 3: we don't know exactly ozadly when he's like, I don't
- 28:40Speaker 3: know what was going on in the USA, what they
- 28:41Speaker 3: talked about, right, So I don't know.
- 28:43Speaker 5: I just didn't like that. Again, I don't know all
- 28:46Speaker 5: that's going on.
- 28:47Speaker 3: I just didn't like Randy being like he can f off, Well,
- 28:49Speaker 3: guess what you're about to spend eight months together, so like, can.
- 28:51Speaker 5: He really f off?
- 28:53Speaker 3: Like this is your dude, man, this is the dude
- 28:54Speaker 3: hit sixty for y'all. Right, So I don't know. I
- 28:57Speaker 3: just think everything is blown out of proportion todays. I
- 28:59Speaker 3: wish it would happen, but I would have been a
- 29:03Speaker 3: dick too, so I can't really say anything.
- 29:07Speaker 1: Acknowledging your persona I think is important in this instance.
- 29:11Speaker 1: That's okay, Yeah, and you would have probably been pissed
- 29:14Speaker 1: AJ that Randy took it to that line.
- 29:16Speaker 2: You probably would have. You can have fun with it
- 29:18Speaker 2: after the game, but I don't need him to say.
- 29:20Speaker 3: Fo yeah, yeah exactly, Like if he would have joke,
- 29:23Speaker 3: made a joke, and maybe he was joking. I don't
- 29:24Speaker 3: know Randy that i've met Randy. That's about it. But
- 29:27Speaker 3: maybe he was joking when he said that. I don't know,
- 29:29Speaker 3: but I don't know. I just I wish you wouldn't
- 29:31Speaker 3: have happened. And people that are saying, oh, it could
- 29:33Speaker 3: have been fixed with a simple greeting, Yeah, it could
- 29:35Speaker 3: have been. But maybe cal said, hey, Randy, not now,
- 29:37Speaker 3: I'm not going to shake your hand, and then maybe
- 29:40Speaker 3: he said nice, something nice. I don't know what he
- 29:42Speaker 3: said because I don't wasn't there and I don't have
- 29:44Speaker 3: a microphone.
- 29:44Speaker 5: And so I don't know. I just I just find
- 29:47Speaker 5: it funny that.
- 29:48Speaker 3: You know, I used to hate when people come up
- 29:49Speaker 3: to me and tap my shin guard with their bat.
- 29:51Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't go to second base and kick
- 29:53Speaker 3: you in the shin when I see you. Why you
- 29:54Speaker 3: hit me with your back dude, it's not cool, right,
- 29:57Speaker 3: Like we're friends, Hey, what's up, man, stay healthy, have
- 29:59Speaker 3: a game. We're going to compete against the other, but like,
- 30:02Speaker 3: don't come up and whack me in the shin guard because,
- 30:04Speaker 3: like I said, I don't go to I don't go
- 30:06Speaker 3: out to second base when I'm staying on a second
- 30:08Speaker 3: base and kick you in the shin and be like, hey,
- 30:09Speaker 3: how's it going?
- 30:10Speaker 5: Like stop.
- 30:12Speaker 1: I think that's actually a really good analogy. So so
- 30:14Speaker 1: we'll end on that. Two more orders of business on
- 30:17Speaker 1: the way out.
- 30:18Speaker 2: One. I didn't get this in the other day and
- 30:19Speaker 2: wanted to.
- 30:19Speaker 1: We had talked about it before it happened, but I
- 30:22Speaker 1: was able to rep ft at the Beyond Now summit
- 30:25Speaker 1: with just a ton of creators, influencers, people in the
- 30:29Speaker 1: content space, so just wanted to shout out the event.
- 30:32Speaker 1: Actually got to spend a lot of time with the
- 30:34Speaker 1: Dunn family, including Livy's sister who is a superstar who
- 30:39Speaker 1: represents her Jules is her name, and then was on
- 30:43Speaker 1: a panel with just a ton of people in sports.
- 30:44Speaker 2: Jamis Winston was there.
- 30:46Speaker 1: This guy, Jordan matteris thirty five million YouTube subscribers. He's
- 30:50Speaker 1: a superstar putting together short little uh.
- 30:53Speaker 2: I guess you'd call him like skits.
- 30:55Speaker 1: But anyway, if you want to see more info Beyond
- 30:57Speaker 1: Now summit, they'll put a lot of the conversations that
- 31:00Speaker 1: we did. I did like ten interviews on their site
- 31:03Speaker 1: and platform.
- 31:04Speaker 2: Kids. It was geared towards high school kids.
- 31:07Speaker 1: We get the questions all the time, like how do
- 31:09Speaker 1: I get involved in the industry, what do I do
- 31:11Speaker 1: first to try and kind of build up a resume.
- 31:13Speaker 1: A lot of those conversations were there, so I wanted
- 31:16Speaker 1: to shout that one out.
- 31:17Speaker 2: It lived up to the billing.
- 31:18Speaker 1: Krats and I were excited to talk about it leading
- 31:21Speaker 1: up to the event.
- 31:22Speaker 2: Lastly, Krats hats.
- 31:26Speaker 4: Obviously wear an O's camp I'm gonna start wearing all
- 31:29Speaker 4: the WBC again for everybody didn't see it yesterday.
- 31:33Speaker 2: This one's cool. I used to.
- 31:34Speaker 4: Vacation a lot in Sarasota, Like just they hit it
- 31:39Speaker 4: out of the park.
- 31:40Speaker 2: It's awesome.
- 31:42Speaker 3: Big big Amish here, Big Amish here, Crats, Nick Kurbs,
- 31:46Speaker 3: you come here on vacation all the time, big Amish.
- 31:48Speaker 3: Remember last year dated the Amish Hotel and you were
- 31:51Speaker 3: so excited. Wanted me to try the place.
- 31:55Speaker 4: The peanut butter pie Peanum butter pie at Dirt Dutchman.
- 31:58Speaker 4: You need it, you need it in your life. Nope,
