4:08
Speaker 1: was just great. It was just perfect and it was
4:10
Speaker 1: a lot of fun. Had a really good time meeting
4:13
Speaker 1: everybody that showed up, and people were coming and going
4:16
Speaker 1: and stopping by for a few minutes. So it's a
4:18
Speaker 1: lot of fun. I'm gonna spend too much time on
4:19
Speaker 1: that now, but we'll talk about it throughout the week,
4:21
Speaker 1: and obviously the podcast I'll get into details this weekend
4:24
Speaker 1: on the recap of what happened meeting some legend justin
4:28
Speaker 1: and Cincinnati, just Josh, Scott, Joe, the Ghost and all
4:32
Speaker 1: those guys that made the track of something that most
4:35
Speaker 1: of them live in the area there, so it was
4:36
Speaker 1: like right in their backyard. But it was a lot
4:38
Speaker 1: of fun. So hopefully we'll be back there at some point.
4:40
Speaker 1: Great turnout a lot of fans of the show and
4:43
Speaker 1: was great. So but our lead this hour, don't bury
4:47
Speaker 1: the lead mom man. So I think the most compelling story,
4:50
Speaker 1: the most compelling story is what's going on in baseball.
4:55
Speaker 1: We'll get to the NBA later. We're gonna start with
4:57
Speaker 1: baseball though, because our lead this hour from the changing
5:03
Speaker 1: of the guard. Uh Now I mentioned about a wonderful
5:06
Speaker 1: time in Cincinnati ended up at We did go to
5:08
Speaker 1: the Reds game, uh one with the you know, some
5:11
Speaker 1: some of the big supporters of the show. There we
5:14
Speaker 1: hung out together. I was on my own, so we
5:16
Speaker 1: went to the Reds Tigers game. Had I was with
5:18
Speaker 1: Robbie the Mariner fan my muscle can't close the deal. Neil,
5:23
Speaker 1: his son, was with me. We had Queen Roxanne, Tommy
5:26
Speaker 1: from Atlanta. We all sat out in the in the
5:28
Speaker 1: outfield there in right field, and it was it was
5:31
Speaker 1: great and uh it was like the second or third inning,
5:34
Speaker 1: I think it was. I forget exactly when, but Queen
5:37
Speaker 1: Roxanne was futzing around with her phone and she mentioned
5:39
Speaker 1: that Alex Cora had been whacked as the Red Sox manager.
5:43
Speaker 1: So oh man and uh and so then a bunch
5:46
Speaker 1: of stuff came out, uh at the nighttime after that,
5:49
Speaker 1: and then obviously here on Sunday. So it's a pretty
5:52
Speaker 1: big deal. The Red Sox were supposed to be one
5:55
Speaker 1: of the better teams in the American League and they suck.
5:59
Speaker 1: I will be played. How do this weekend? Okay, good, congratulations,
6:02
Speaker 1: I'll give you a cookie. So Alex Corra, not only him,
6:05
Speaker 1: but one, two, three, four, five of his little helpers
6:10
Speaker 1: have been excommunicated from the Red Sox family in the
6:14
Speaker 1: midst of this misery. And we're not even out of
6:17
Speaker 1: April yet, and the Red Sox not looking particularly good
6:21
Speaker 1: at this point. Now many people have questioned, what are
6:25
Speaker 1: you doing here? Not a lot of answers, Not a
6:27
Speaker 1: lot of answers. As one of my buddies in Baltimore
6:32
Speaker 1: pointed out, the Red Sox were so embarrassed by this.
6:34
Speaker 1: They had a meeting with the media news conference on
6:38
Speaker 1: Sunday and they did not even use the Red Sox backdrop.
6:42
Speaker 1: They used the oil backdrop because they were like, well,
6:44
Speaker 1: if people aren't paying attention to those sports bars and
6:46
Speaker 1: they're flipping through the channels, they'll see the Orioles and
6:49
Speaker 1: they won't think it's anything about the Red Sox and
6:51
Speaker 1: all that. Anyway, the news is Alice cor out, So
6:53
Speaker 1: that's the jumping all point. Let us discuss the question
6:57
Speaker 1: Alice Core decommissioned as the Red Sox manager over the weekend.
7:04
Speaker 1: Why did it happen and why did it happen now?
7:07
Speaker 1: So my thoughts on this, I've got Carl's Junior, Jimmy
7:11
Speaker 1: Buffett and Pappy but not Poppy. Yeah. Well, and we'll
7:17
Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going
7:20
Speaker 1: to crack the code, is what we're going to do.
7:22
Speaker 1: So a this is not about the record, which, oh,
7:26
Speaker 1: by the way, is pretty bad. The Red Sox team
7:30
Speaker 1: charter is the vomit comet this year. Not good, not
7:34
Speaker 1: good at all, and it's an absolute abomination. That being said,
7:38
Speaker 1: the reason why this happened and why it happened now
7:42
Speaker 1: is because of John Henry. John Henry was unable to
7:45
Speaker 1: handle the smoke, the owner of the team. And every
7:48
Speaker 1: time John Henry has looked at social media and these
7:52
Speaker 1: guys will have burner accounts on honest. So he's looking
7:55
Speaker 1: around looking at the feedback and he's talking to his
7:58
Speaker 1: buddies at the Hampton's and all these other plays is
8:00
Speaker 1: that they hang out, rich people hang out, and he's
8:03
Speaker 1: absolutely getting charb broiled like a Carl's Junior famous star
8:07
Speaker 1: or a heart ease if you're east of the Mississippi
8:09
Speaker 1: and He's just getting sharbroiled. John Henry's getting cooked and
8:14
Speaker 1: he finally realized, well, I can't take the heat anymore.
8:16
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't like eating a burger, but I
8:18
Speaker 1: do want to be charbroiled. And it's turned into a
8:21
Speaker 1: public relations inferno. And Alice Korra, who was the only
8:26
Speaker 1: bucket of water that he realistically had to play at
8:29
Speaker 1: this point, and so he tossed it on the Boston roster.
8:34
Speaker 1: But this roster is pu what sticks. It's a joke.
8:39
Speaker 1: And they're out there hitting like a group of lightweight
8:43
Speaker 1: feather dusters. And that's one thing. Even when the rest
8:46
Speaker 1: has been bad over the years, they've always had good
8:47
Speaker 1: offensive teams. Right now, they're terrible warning track, power check,
8:52
Speaker 1: and they handed a roster which granted was not great.
8:54
Speaker 1: Right if you were go to the butcher shop, this
8:56
Speaker 1: would be more like Top Round. It is not porter House.
9:00
Speaker 1: The Red Sox ownership would like to see results that
9:03
Speaker 1: are Porterhouse. It's more Top Round than Porterhouse. And then
9:07
Speaker 1: they it was acting shocked that the health department shut
9:11
Speaker 1: the whole thing down because of a cockroach infestation. And
9:14
Speaker 1: then you have the biggest uh oh, the biggest uh oh,
9:20
Speaker 1: that would be the future of the franchise, Roman Anthony, who,
9:24
Speaker 1: much like the Roman Empire, things are not going great
9:27
Speaker 1: right now. The Crown Jewel, the guy that will be
9:30
Speaker 1: here with the Red Sox long after I'm done doing
9:33
Speaker 1: this show. He'll just be here forever. And no so far, well,
9:38
Speaker 1: let's see how's that going? All sizzle nosteak the poster
9:41
Speaker 1: child right now for the developmental system of The Red Sox,
9:44
Speaker 1: which has got a lot of hype and right this
9:47
Speaker 1: moment not a lot of delivery. Also, the front office
9:50
Speaker 1: traded for someone named Caleb Durbitt from the Brewers, And
9:53
Speaker 1: how's that working on this guy? If you've seen him play,
9:56
Speaker 1: and I haven't watched much of The Red Sox, but
9:57
Speaker 1: if you've seen him play, he looks like he should
9:59
Speaker 1: be calling. He's seventeen at the local DMV, not replacing
10:04
Speaker 1: Rafie Devers or that cheating astro Alex Bregman. Either way,
10:11
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not not particularly great. And so John
10:14
Speaker 1: Henry like he didn't just fire Alex Cora the manager.
10:17
Speaker 1: He needed a human sacrifice, and so he's like, Hey,
10:20
Speaker 1: one of my favorite movies. I imagine this conversation happened
10:23
Speaker 1: in my head, it did. John Henry, the Red Sox owners,
10:26
Speaker 1: I love that Joe Versus the Volcano, that old movie
10:29
Speaker 1: back in the day, like forty year old movie, and
10:31
Speaker 1: so Cora, I'm gonna put him on the lava and
10:35
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens, you know, because little messing around,
10:39
Speaker 1: what'sing around and all that. The ownership could not stand
10:43
Speaker 1: the product and it's it's ghastly. It's been mostly ghastly
10:47
Speaker 1: so far this year. And it's not just a disaster
10:51
Speaker 1: with a Capitol D at least early season baseball. This
10:54
Speaker 1: is like if it was a big production, Hollywood production,
10:58
Speaker 1: we straight to streaming, catastrophe. He spent a lot of
11:01
Speaker 1: money and you just boom right right to streaming. You're bad,
11:06
Speaker 1: all right now turning the page, but not far so.
11:09
Speaker 1: There's a couple of photos that have been posted by
11:12
Speaker 1: Alice Cora, the one that really rocked the boat. Because
11:16
Speaker 1: everyone gets worked up by photos for our blind listeners,
11:18
Speaker 1: let me describe. So the Red Sox coaches that were
11:23
Speaker 1: all sent packing a long walk off a short pier,
11:27
Speaker 1: they were spotted smiling on the flight home as they
11:31
Speaker 1: were getting ready to board the chartered flight. The Red
11:35
Speaker 1: Sox were in Baltimore and and you had all the
11:38
Speaker 1: coaches monding. Now Jason Veritek, who also I guess got reassigned.
11:42
Speaker 1: We'll find out about that later on Monday. He was
11:45
Speaker 1: giving the thumbs down a mooji, but it was his hand.
11:47
Speaker 1: He gave the thumbs down emoji there on the photo,
11:50
Speaker 1: So thumbs down there, and it was posted by Alex
11:53
Speaker 1: Cora on Instagram. And then on we wait, there's more
11:56
Speaker 1: on Sunday, and we're heading into a Monday. But on
12:00
Speaker 1: Sunday it was a nice dinner at an Italian beastra
12:04
Speaker 1: on the North End and they were all smiling. Man,
12:07
Speaker 1: these guys are so fricking happy, happy, happy, happy days. Question,
12:13
Speaker 1: should Red Sox fans be mad that the fired coaches
12:20
Speaker 1: looked happier on that plane ride from Baltimore back to
12:24
Speaker 1: Boston than they did all season and while enjoying a
12:28
Speaker 1: nice Italian meal. So as the court of the Malard Militia,
12:36
Speaker 1: the judge of the Malasia in the courtroom, so I've
12:38
Speaker 1: got my imaginary gavel, and I'm gonna hit the gavel,
12:42
Speaker 1: all right, I'm hitting the gavel. And the ruling is
12:45
Speaker 1: guilty as charged that photo. The first one was not
12:49
Speaker 1: in Bashi. Both not just tone death. It was like
12:52
Speaker 1: a full blown symphony, a grant like the Boston Pops
12:56
Speaker 1: of cluelessness. You've got Alice Cora posting a smiling, care
13:02
Speaker 1: free departure, like the whole group. They weren't going back
13:06
Speaker 1: to Boston. They were headed to Jimmy Buffett's margar Riteville,
13:10
Speaker 1: not back to unemployment. And that's not accident, all right,
13:15
Speaker 1: this was strategic true. I believe there was a message
13:17
Speaker 1: in that, like there's like, hey, you're not gonna f
13:19
Speaker 1: with us, you know, you you idiots upstairs, your little
13:22
Speaker 1: dopey ownership group out there. And so it's also a
13:26
Speaker 1: slap across the face to the to the hardos that
13:29
Speaker 1: are really invested in the Red Sox. And then Jason
13:32
Speaker 1: Veritek with the thumbs down body language one oh one.
13:36
Speaker 1: The clubhouse was not aligned, the urgency was not there,
13:40
Speaker 1: and the other photo, I believe they're all thumbs up.
13:43
Speaker 1: I think in the second photo that was because they
13:45
Speaker 1: were aware of the blowback from the first photo. So
13:47
Speaker 1: instead of going Defcon one, the coaches went beach mode.
13:52
Speaker 1: And now that's it, and so you exposed the rot
13:56
Speaker 1: the cultural rot with the Red Sox here, which is
13:59
Speaker 1: also a case of not having good enough players, but
14:01
Speaker 1: the country club operation masquerading as what was supposed to
14:05
Speaker 1: be a contender here and John Henry needed a fall guy,
14:10
Speaker 1: needed a fall guy. However, the numbers are not good
14:14
Speaker 1: and they generally do not lie bottom tier offense right
14:17
Speaker 1: now for the Red Sox. A lot of empty calorie stats.
14:20
Speaker 1: There's not a lot of pulse there. You didn't have
14:24
Speaker 1: to post the photos you did, and that tells you
14:27
Speaker 1: that you were trying to send a message. I'm talking
14:29
Speaker 1: about Alice Corry here, all right now, the last word,
14:33
Speaker 1: keeping the beat, going to put the bow on my
14:36
Speaker 1: pride and enjoy here a monologue about a manager that
14:40
Speaker 1: get gets whacked. So the question here, after getting poll
14:44
Speaker 1: axed by the Red Sox, what is next for Alice
14:48
Speaker 1: core So? That's simple, that's simple. And this is one
14:52
Speaker 1: of the reasons we don't get too worked up about
14:55
Speaker 1: ripping people in sports who get fired. It's not like
14:58
Speaker 1: a regular human being. It's fake, it's phony, it's fraudulent.
15:03
Speaker 1: These guys get paid in full, They get paid in full.
15:06
Speaker 1: Who gives a rats ass if these rip them rip
15:08
Speaker 1: their asses if they get fired, who cares? And and
15:12
Speaker 1: Cora is a great example gold plated sabbatical. He'll be
15:16
Speaker 1: lounging on a pillowy seven point two five million dollars
15:21
Speaker 1: salary that not only we paid the rest of twenty
15:23
Speaker 1: twenty six, but also in twenty twenty seven, which means
15:27
Speaker 1: you can go around to every Italian restaurant on the
15:29
Speaker 1: North End and smile and laugh and go eat cream
15:31
Speaker 1: puffs and shove them down your throat and who cares?
15:34
Speaker 1: All right? Now, the next stop for Cora is gonna
15:36
Speaker 1: be the boob tube because he's got friends debonair. Guy's
15:41
Speaker 1: got friends at ESPN and MLB Network, and they that's
15:44
Speaker 1: how they hire this jockocracy. They hire these guys. And
15:47
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be shocked if he ends up on NBC.
15:48
Speaker 1: They've got that fugazy revolving door thing where they don't
15:52
Speaker 1: have any color commentator and they put these like local
15:54
Speaker 1: guys on and it's not very good most of the time.
15:57
Speaker 1: It sucks. So Cora's out there. And he did TV
16:00
Speaker 1: before he went in to coaching and all that stuff,
16:03
Speaker 1: and Cora as a manager, the perception is he's gone
16:08
Speaker 1: from the butcher knife to the butter knife, like, there's
16:12
Speaker 1: not as much edge there, and the success they had
16:15
Speaker 1: when he inherited a pretty thick roster not there. And
16:21
Speaker 1: there's been a lot of last place finishes. It's either
16:23
Speaker 1: been really good or nowhere in the middle. You just
16:26
Speaker 1: suck and TV. You go to TV. It pays not
16:31
Speaker 1: these money pays well and it rehabs your reputation and
16:35
Speaker 1: all that you get paid to talk you never lose.
16:38
Speaker 1: And there's some that saying he's going to manage again.
16:40
Speaker 1: There's a lot of chatter here as we head into
16:43
Speaker 1: the overnight. The Mets got smacked around by the Rockies,
16:46
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of chatter that the Mets are
16:49
Speaker 1: going to get rid of their manager at some point,
16:51
Speaker 1: possibly today. We'll see if that happens or not. But Cora,
16:56
Speaker 1: that could be a spot for He's tight with some
17:00
Speaker 1: of the guys on the Mets, so that could be
17:01
Speaker 1: a possibility that he ends up there. I think it's doubtful.
17:05
Speaker 1: Why would you want to walk into that mess that's
17:08
Speaker 1: at this point that's not a fixer upper. And so
17:12
Speaker 1: Korra can sit back and sip some Pappy Van Winkle bourbon,
17:17
Speaker 1: get some of that high end bourbon and then just
17:20
Speaker 1: wait for the next win. Now owner that's all horny
17:22
Speaker 1: to win's got a roster that's almost there, and not
17:27
Speaker 1: necessarily a meddling owner, but somebody with deep pockets and
17:30
Speaker 1: down the line. Now, if you were to say, hey,
17:33
Speaker 1: can you can you pull out the Mallard crystal ball?
17:35
Speaker 1: Yes I can, Yes, I can. I can pull out
17:38
Speaker 1: the Mallard crystal ball. And looking ahead here, you know,
17:41
Speaker 1: keep an eye on the Phillies. You got his old
17:43
Speaker 1: old red sox GM Dave Dombrowski. The Phillies are terrible.
17:47
Speaker 1: Have you seen how bad they are? So Dave Dombrowski
17:50
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia, if he keeps his job, he could lose
17:52
Speaker 1: his job too. Or I mentioned the chaos factory of
17:55
Speaker 1: the Mets as a possibility, and hey, why not return
17:59
Speaker 1: to the cheating as because yeah, I've not forgotten. I've

Speaker 1: point out, I get a lot of message about the
22:13
Speaker 1: meet and greeting and all that I did post one video.
22:15
Speaker 1: I was traveling all day and you know, I was
22:18
Speaker 1: trying to trying to sleep and it did not work.
22:21
Speaker 1: So I'm a bit of a zombie. So I want
22:22
Speaker 1: to make sure I go through everything. Unlike you know,
22:25
Speaker 1: as I was telling some of the boys of the
22:26
Speaker 1: me greet, like my old pal Eddie, who who I
22:30
Speaker 1: did chat with briefly, briefly over the weekend because the
22:32
Speaker 1: Dixter wanted me to, wanted me to reach out to him,
22:36
Speaker 1: so I did. And Eddie would always take the worst
22:40
Speaker 1: possible photo. And I don't mind bad photos. I really don't.
22:43
Speaker 1: I I was trying to explain this to something. I
22:44
Speaker 1: don't really mind bad photos. The problem is if you
22:47
Speaker 1: post them. That's the problem, right, Everyone takes bad photos.
22:51
Speaker 1: I'm certainly not photo jedic. I'm an ugly radio guy. However,
22:54
Speaker 1: you don't need to post the ugliest possible photo. There's
22:58
Speaker 1: an art to it. There's angles and uh so that
23:02
Speaker 1: that was that was a bit of an annoyance. Anyway,
23:06
Speaker 1: there is a video post that I did post a video.
23:08
Speaker 1: I recorded a couple of songs of the Dixter and
23:12
Speaker 1: his his performing and it was it was awesome. It
23:15
Speaker 1: was great and ohio was it. It was there were
23:17
Speaker 1: side by side. Really want to thank ohio Al who
23:20
Speaker 1: was very kind and generous and made sure, you know,
23:23
Speaker 1: the Dixter is getting up there and ohio Al made
23:27
Speaker 1: sure that he was comfortable on stage, that little stage
23:29
Speaker 1: in the back there, and he was into it. And
23:33
Speaker 1: I went up at one point after a couple of songs,
23:35
Speaker 1: I said, okay, Dick, oh yeah. He wanted to do
23:36
Speaker 1: the whole thing. He wanted to like to pay two hours,
23:38
Speaker 1: he wanted to do a full concert. And that's how
23:41
Speaker 1: excited he was. He was fired up like this is
23:43
Speaker 1: like the greatest thing ever and was It made me
23:45
Speaker 1: feel good. So I was happy and everyone was so
23:47
Speaker 1: nice to him, and it was it was really cool.
23:50
Speaker 1: Ferg Dog says a Western bacon cheeseburger with a side
23:54
Speaker 1: of Chris cut fries and beverage of your choice. What
23:59
Speaker 1: do you say to that? I'm good. Just Josh in
24:05
Speaker 1: Cincinnati right say it, says the main reason for the shindig,
24:08
Speaker 1: the smile on the Dixter's face. I found this gym
24:12
Speaker 1: in the background and another photo with Andy Ferman. Andy
24:17
Speaker 1: came by and Andy was great. I'm convinced that Andy
24:22
Speaker 1: thought there would be me and Dick and Dayton and
24:24
Speaker 1: that's it and nobody else. He was shocked how many
24:26
Speaker 1: people were there. And we've determined now that in terms
24:31
Speaker 1: of the actual attendance at the event. I'm learning and
24:35
Speaker 1: I studied this a little bit. I was fussing around
24:37
Speaker 1: on my phone. We are going to say the attendance
24:40
Speaker 1: for the Malor Meet and greet was roughly three hundred thousand.
24:46
Speaker 1: That was the attendance. That's NFL MATT, not Malor math right, Coop,
24:50
Speaker 1: that's NFL MAT because we everyone in the great because
24:53
Speaker 1: it's like one mile from downtown Cincinnati, so we include
24:56
Speaker 1: everyone from the venue within one mile, which is what
24:59
Speaker 1: the NFL does. We had three hundred thousand people that
25:02
Speaker 1: their spirit was there. Their spirit was many people upset
25:06
Speaker 1: you were not there, Coop and Lorena. They wanted to
25:08
Speaker 1: see you guys. There they were, They were there. Words
25:11
Speaker 1: of the raining and Cooper were they, Well, they're not here.
25:13
Speaker 1: I was so upset I couldn't be there. Yeah, but
25:16
Speaker 1: it was. It was great. We had perfect weather. I
25:18
Speaker 1: got in it was raining the night before and it
25:20
Speaker 1: was nasty and but could not have been It was perfect.
25:24
Speaker 1: It was like southern California weather, and it doesn't it's
25:27
Speaker 1: not normally like that in Cincinnati's humid usually, and the
25:29
Speaker 1: guys that were living there were, oh, it's never liked this,
25:33
Speaker 1: but it was. It was pretty cool, so it was.
25:35
Speaker 1: I had a good time, so it was fun. And yeah,
25:39
Speaker 1: just I agree with just Josh, just the joy that
25:42
Speaker 1: Dick and Dayton had a guy that loves radio. And
25:46
Speaker 1: as someone's been a radio a long time and I've
25:47
Speaker 1: seen the business change a lot, and there's not too
25:49
Speaker 1: many people that truly love what we do like Dick
25:52
Speaker 1: and Dayton. I could not have been happier. It cost
25:55
Speaker 1: a fair amount of money to go there, and it
25:57
Speaker 1: was worth it just to see the joy that he
26:00
Speaker 1: ad and a guy's been calling radio shows for his
26:03
Speaker 1: whole life and just loves radio, just loves it, and
26:07
Speaker 1: it meant a lot. King Roy writes. He says, I
26:09
Speaker 1: can't wait to hear all the fun you had in
26:11
Speaker 1: northern Kentucky for the Ohio Meet and greet there the
26:14
Speaker 1: fifth Hour podcast. It's also a good thing you had
26:17
Speaker 1: prior engagements, because you know what would have happened. I know.
26:22
Speaker 1: So I'd mentioned on the Fifth Hour podcast on Saturday
26:25
Speaker 1: that I had gotten a random out of blue invite
26:29
Speaker 1: to the dinner in d C where they had the incident.
26:33
Speaker 1: And I never get invited. Why would I be invited
26:36
Speaker 1: to do politics? You well, they sent me. They send
26:41
Speaker 1: me an email saying, yeah, you know your name? I
26:43
Speaker 1: guess whatever. They came up and they were trying to
26:45
Speaker 1: invite some people that aren't part of core media whatever.
26:48
Speaker 1: So I was like, all right, whatever, and I but

32:52
Speaker 1: new big thing. That call right there is an example
32:54
Speaker 1: of why he's the new big thing. Amazing, absolutely amazing.
33:01
Speaker 1: So the numbers are not good, bad math. The New
33:05
Speaker 1: York Metropolitans are nine and nineteen and to start the year,
33:11
Speaker 1: the worst through twenty eight games since nineteen eighty three,
33:16
Speaker 1: and they have now been swept in four of their
33:18
Speaker 1: last five series. They've scored zero or one run in
33:23
Speaker 1: ten games, the most in Major League Baseball this year.
33:26
Speaker 1: The Mets also have made a roster move the very feisty,
33:32
Speaker 1: often called angry Tommy Fam outfielder who was brought in
33:38
Speaker 1: to try to help the Mets offense. He had thirteen
33:42
Speaker 1: at bats and how many hits did Tommy Fam have?
33:45
Speaker 1: As many as you and I had for the Mets.
33:47
Speaker 1: The Metropolitans have fired Tommy Fam. He has been designated
33:53
Speaker 1: for assignments, so he's out. I don't believe that's going
33:56
Speaker 1: to change much. I don't believe that's going to change much.
33:59
Speaker 1: And you have the the Philadelphia Phillis. You mentioned this earlier.
34:01
Speaker 1: The Phillies a horrible fourth highest payroll in baseball, the
34:06
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Phillies, and they have a horrific run differential, which
34:11
Speaker 1: I believe is actually worse than the Mets. So they've
34:13
Speaker 1: actually been worse the Phillies than the Mets. At I
34:16
Speaker 1: ninety five Corridor, things not going well. Rob the Goatman says,
34:20
Speaker 1: for those of us who only use this platform, where
34:23
Speaker 1: can we find the Dixter's live performance? Well, yes, Dixter
34:28
Speaker 1: though I did post that on Instagram and on the
34:32
Speaker 1: Facebook page, so you can go. You guys want to
34:35

Speaker 1: to put like ninety five percent of the photos. And
34:46
Speaker 1: I didn't if some of you guys have photos, I
34:49
Speaker 1: got as many as I could. I didn't get everyone,
34:52
Speaker 1: which sucks, and so some people I did not get
34:54
Speaker 1: photos with. Other people didn't want photos, which I don't
34:57
Speaker 1: blame you, but there were a bunch of people only
35:00
Speaker 1: got a handful comparison to how many people were there.
35:02
Speaker 1: So hopefully if you have some photos.
35:04
Speaker 2: I did.
35:04
Speaker 1: It was great to see Steve, but it was Steve's
35:06
Speaker 1: from North Carolina, and Steve was at the Malord Meet
35:09
Speaker 1: and greet. We did one of the first ones. It
35:11
Speaker 1: was the first one in Kansas City in twenty twelve,
35:16
Speaker 1: and it was awesome. That was the one Doc Mike
35:18
Speaker 1: showed up at, and that was at the restaurant that
35:21
Speaker 1: named It was a different restaurant. They changed the name
35:24
Speaker 1: of the place that had the chicken fingers named after me.
35:27
Speaker 1: But that was great. It was awesome to see that
35:30
Speaker 1: and Steve I said, hey, can you send me the photo?
35:32
Speaker 1: He said, yes, absolutely, I'll send you the photo. So
35:35
Speaker 1: I want to thank Steve because he did do that,
35:37
Speaker 1: and he also gave some great advice on the there's
35:41
Speaker 1: a park in Cincinnati. Well that's actually in Covington, Kentucky,
35:46
Speaker 1: which is fricking like one of the coolest parts I've
35:48
Speaker 1: been to because it overlooks the skyline and I'm a
35:50
Speaker 1: big skyline. I love the skyline. And Steve had gone there.
35:54
Speaker 1: He did like the whole WKRP in Cincinnati thing, which
35:56
Speaker 1: is all like old old dudes do that, because we
35:58
Speaker 1: loved that show, and I didn't have time to do
36:01
Speaker 1: the whole thing. But Steve had mentioned this park. He
36:03
Speaker 1: said you gotta check it out, and he was not wrong.
36:06
Speaker 1: It was amazing. Just the whole Ohio river there, the bridges,
36:09
Speaker 1: the trees, and the skyline was awesome. Just a chamber
36:13
Speaker 1: of commerce kind of kind of you which was really
36:16
Speaker 1: really really cool. Cool. Al Right, it is the Ben
36:19
Speaker 1: Malor Show. Time now for the always popular who Am I? Game?
36:23
Speaker 1: This is where we pretend to be somebody else? Thus
36:25
Speaker 1: the who we call the who am I?
36:27
Speaker 2: Game?
36:27
Speaker 1: You have to guess who we are? So Alex Korra
36:30
Speaker 1: Alex Cora became the first manager to get fired after
36:34
Speaker 1: winning a game by sixteen or more runs. Now, the
36:37
Speaker 1: Red Sox scored ten runs in the ninth inning on
36:40
Speaker 1: Friday against Baltimore or on Saturday rather so they end
36:43
Speaker 1: up winning. It was like seventeen to one was the
36:46
Speaker 1: final score, and Cora got fired mainly because the Orioles
36:50
Speaker 1: ran out of fireworks on Friday night because hits so
36:53
Speaker 1: many against the Boston pitching. Anyway, Core became the first
36:56
Speaker 1: manager to get fired after winning a game by sixteen
36:59
Speaker 1: or more runs since me, who am I? That is
37:04
Speaker 1: the question the answer. We'll get to it and we

38:56
Speaker 1: are at the higher level of sports, you're not allowed
38:59
Speaker 1: to say when they don't play well. And Otani's had
