- 1:53Speaker 3: Looks like I'm getting younger with every day, doesn't it.
- 1:55Speaker 4: Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking.
- 1:58Speaker 3: I can read your face.
- 1:59Speaker 4: He looked younger and more vibrant. Right is he Benjamin
- 2:04Speaker 4: buttoning right in front of my eyes?
- 2:06Speaker 3: You know what I told you that I bought that one.
- 2:09Speaker 1: Dumbbell and walking home from targeting, I've worked out with
- 2:13Speaker 1: that thing two nights in a row.
- 2:16Speaker 3: Wow, so probably look pretty.
- 2:19Speaker 4: Yeah, super buff?
- 2:20Speaker 1: Yeah Yeah, that's what happens with a twenty minute workout
- 2:24Speaker 1: with one twenty pound dumbbelt.
- 2:26Speaker 4: Good for you. Each side of your body got ten
- 2:29Speaker 4: minutes of a workout.
- 2:30Speaker 3: It can turn around like that.
- 2:31Speaker 4: Just like see. So all of you who are putting
- 2:34Speaker 4: off getting back in shape, Chuck right here proof exactly
- 2:38Speaker 4: you can do it very quickly that in forty.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Eight hours you can go from looking like an old, haggard,
- 2:43Speaker 1: tired man to looking like the next Zach Effron.
- 2:48Speaker 4: Basically my thoughts exactly, that's probably a bad example since
- 2:53Speaker 4: he's now a steroid out. Well, that's true, like normal
- 2:58Speaker 4: Zach Effron. Yeah, before went to do that movie with
- 3:01Speaker 4: all the roids, I.
- 3:02Speaker 1: Was gonna do the Frankenstein guy, but I couldn't think
- 3:04Speaker 1: of his name. Jacob l Ron or Jacob.
- 3:06Speaker 3: Lordy, Lordy.
- 3:07Speaker 4: That guy is a dream boat.
- 3:09Speaker 3: Yeah, take two.
- 3:12Speaker 1: Okay, in forty eight hours with dumbbell one dumbbell, you
- 3:15Speaker 1: can go.
- 3:15Speaker 3: From looking like an old, tired, haggard man.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Yeah, and within forty eight hours you can look like
- 3:22Speaker 1: Jacob ALRDI. Wow, yeah, Jack, Yeah, You're welcome America.
- 3:27Speaker 3: And now I feel confident to be on YouTube.
- 3:30Speaker 4: Thank goodness, because our listeners have really not loved staring
- 3:34Speaker 4: at the KJR logo for.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Is that what's happened? I just didn't even they shut
- 3:38Speaker 1: it down. No, was it impossible to take it out
- 3:41Speaker 1: to the.
- 3:42Speaker 3: Working on it.
- 3:43Speaker 4: But it's got to get somehow connected. Like I know
- 3:45Speaker 4: you have your laptop and it's got a camera on it,
- 3:47Speaker 4: but it's got to get connected to something here and
- 3:49Speaker 4: I don't know what it is.
- 3:50Speaker 1: Well, it wouldn't work yesterday, No, because your laptop. My
- 3:53Speaker 1: laptop was well, basically the world's largest paper weight.
- 3:58Speaker 3: All right, well, great to have you with us. It's
- 4:00Speaker 3: terrific to be it really is.
- 4:02Speaker 1: I don't know how softies out a lot on remote
- 4:05Speaker 1: with Dick, and I don't know if they like it
- 4:07Speaker 1: that way, prefer it that way. I personally do not
- 4:10Speaker 1: as fun as it is to be out at training camp.
- 4:13Speaker 3: I just for radio purposes. I just this is. This
- 4:16Speaker 3: is good for me. I've got I got a different
- 4:18Speaker 3: kind of energy here today.
- 4:20Speaker 1: So great to have you with us, and uh, we've
- 4:23Speaker 1: got a lot of things planned for you today. We
- 4:25Speaker 1: also have a cash word, of course, fun is that
- 4:28Speaker 1: cash word. Enter it at ninety three three KJR dot
- 4:30Speaker 1: com for your shot at one thousand dollars in bonus bucks.
- 4:33Speaker 1: It's brought to you by Bellevue Red Coins. That's fun

- 4:38Speaker 1: keyword for you at the top of next hour. We'll
- 4:41Speaker 1: also tell you what's on tap here in a little bit.
- 4:43Speaker 1: But we start with the Mariners and I don't know
- 4:46Speaker 1: if I was planning you know, twelve hours ago. I
- 4:48Speaker 1: don't know if that was going to be my plan
- 4:50Speaker 1: for the first segment because we've got some other things
- 4:52Speaker 1: going on here that I think are worth mentioning here today.
- 4:56Speaker 1: But last night was it was a nice win, really
- 4:59Speaker 1: nice win. I think our old friend Bucky and his
- 5:02Speaker 1: glossary of terms even called it a.
- 5:03Speaker 3: Big win last night.
- 5:04Speaker 1: He did, which was may not have registered with other people,
- 5:08Speaker 1: but that registers with Ashley and I Yeah, I was like.
- 5:11Speaker 4: Wow, I see you, Wow, I see you.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Big Bay wins, big win guy throwing out big wins,
- 5:16Speaker 1: drop big wins. Yeah, early August and already we're dealing
- 5:20Speaker 1: in big win territories.
- 5:21Speaker 4: Can agree more though, because that would have been a
- 5:22Speaker 4: massive loss.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, you're right, And to have won it
- 5:27Speaker 1: the way that you want it, you know, it did
- 5:30Speaker 1: feel a little extra special. And what I mean by
- 5:34Speaker 1: that is there were some things that happened that we
- 5:37Speaker 1: just have not seen happen this year. We saw the
- 5:41Speaker 1: defense bail out Brian wu early in the game, outfield
- 5:46Speaker 1: defense from two guys. Let's face, it have not been
- 5:50Speaker 1: good defensively this year. Dom Canzone is probably never going
- 5:53Speaker 1: to be great defensively.
- 5:55Speaker 3: He was great defensively last night.
- 5:58Speaker 1: Randy or Rose Arena was spectacular last night, hustling everywhere,
- 6:03Speaker 1: and he has all the ability to do it. I'm
- 6:05Speaker 1: not sure it's ever gonna be in dom to be
- 6:08Speaker 1: a great defender. Certainly a better one, a good one,
- 6:11Speaker 1: but Randy Rose Arena, it just all comes down to.
- 6:15Speaker 3: What mindset he's in that night.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Because he has the athletic ability and the strength that
- 6:21Speaker 1: he can climb walls, he can track down fly balls.
- 6:25Speaker 1: I don't know why he's so inaccurate with his throwing arm,
- 6:28Speaker 1: but he wasn't last night, and so that bailed Brian
- 6:32Speaker 1: out of that one inning that normally blows up in
- 6:36Speaker 1: his face, or at least it has on the road,
- 6:38Speaker 1: not at home, and it bailed him out of that inning.
- 6:41Speaker 1: And you could see the emotions. You could see how
- 6:43Speaker 1: appreciative he was of it as he was coming off
- 6:47Speaker 1: the field, actually in the moment. Then as he was
- 6:50Speaker 1: coming off the field, he stood there and waited for
- 6:52Speaker 1: those two guys to come run by him. And then
- 6:55Speaker 1: when he got out of the inning and the seventh
- 6:57Speaker 1: that just emotional, just release where he yelled into his
- 7:02Speaker 1: gun and we yelled into his glove and we've seen
- 7:04Speaker 1: him do that before, but maybe not to that degree.
- 7:08Speaker 1: So you get the great outfield defense from two unlikely characters,
- 7:13Speaker 1: you get the seven innings of shutout baseball from your
- 7:16Speaker 1: starting pitcher, and then, after fourteen innings of shutout baseball offensively,
- 7:21Speaker 1: when you're supposed to be new and improved, Julio Rodriguez
- 7:25Speaker 1: just went up there with savage intent and he swung
- 7:28Speaker 1: at the first pitch. He was looking for it away
- 7:31Speaker 1: and he just crushed it to right field, and that
- 7:34Speaker 1: went up. He went up three to nothing at that
- 7:37Speaker 1: point in the contest. And yet here we sit this morning,
- 7:42Speaker 1: and I'm going to entertain.
- 7:44Speaker 3: This this morning. I'm going to entertain this this morning.
- 7:47Speaker 1: And we have people saying that it was the brawl
- 7:50Speaker 1: that has sparked the team and is gonna unleash hell
- 7:56Speaker 1: and fury on the rest of Major League Baseball.
- 7:59Speaker 3: I hope you're true. I hope that's true. I hope
- 8:02Speaker 3: you're right.
- 8:02Speaker 1: I hope that whatever happened in the Gabespire Cal Raleigh
- 8:07Speaker 1: DeJesus Torres brawl last night, that it sparks off forty
- 8:12Speaker 1: game winning streak. And because I'll take anything, whatever that
- 8:17Speaker 1: might be hell, I'll take hey rally monkeys have been
- 8:21Speaker 1: given the credit for World Series appearances on heads, shoes
- 8:26Speaker 1: on heads, rats on ice. Yeah, we've had all sorts
- 8:29Speaker 1: of things. My goodness, I'll believe anything if I I
- 8:33Speaker 1: saw it with my own ice. You're not gonna believe this,
- 8:35Speaker 1: But I saw it with my own eyes. A team
- 8:38Speaker 1: that historically has struggled to pack the house on weekdays
- 8:42Speaker 1: was four games under five hundred going into a game
- 8:45Speaker 1: against the Detroit Tigers, coming off one of their most
- 8:48Speaker 1: flaccid performances of the entire year, a year filled with underachievement,
- 8:53Speaker 1: and because of the power of a rookie card of
- 8:56Speaker 1: a deformed raccoon, we sold out a state on a
- 9:00Speaker 1: Wednesday night to give us the ambiance that maybe contributed
- 9:06Speaker 1: to that victory last night. So if that can happen,
- 9:09Speaker 1: then I can believe anything can happen. So we those
- 9:12Speaker 1: of you that think the season turned around when Gabe
- 9:15Speaker 1: Spire threw it Glaber Torres last night, I don't think
- 9:19Speaker 1: that's true.
- 9:21Speaker 3: I don't. I think there were four or five things.
- 9:24Speaker 1: That happened baseball last night, including Colt Emerson's answer with
- 9:28Speaker 1: the home run after the brawl that may have shown
- 9:33Speaker 1: may have reminded this team what they're capable of in
- 9:37Speaker 1: a lot of different facets of the game. Maybe this
- 9:40Speaker 1: game does give us that spark we've waited for all
- 9:43Speaker 1: twenty twenty six. And if you want to believe that
- 9:48Speaker 1: it was the brawl, let's go ahead and go with that.
- 9:51Speaker 1: If it sparks this team to finally play the way
- 9:54Speaker 1: that they want, I'll let you believe anything that you want.
- 9:58Speaker 1: And so there you go. Cards on the table. Gabe
- 10:01Speaker 1: Spier hit glabor, torres and thigh and he showed them
- 10:05Speaker 1: you're not gonna hit our catcher in the stomach unintentionally
- 10:11Speaker 1: and that and that's going to launch a thousand ships.
- 10:15Speaker 3: So if that's what it is, I don't care.
- 10:17Speaker 1: I don't care what the reason is for a turnaround.
- 10:20Speaker 1: We need to turn around right now. And if we
- 10:22Speaker 1: want to give that the credit, I'm here for it.
- 10:25Speaker 4: I think there was a theme throughout the night, and
- 10:27Speaker 4: it was that they all had each other's backs because
- 10:29Speaker 4: just as you.
- 10:29Speaker 1: Described it, okay, it was like that.
- 10:31Speaker 4: It was a rose Arena, it was canzone. It was
- 10:34Speaker 4: the defense helping Wu, it was Wu helping his offense.
- 10:37Speaker 4: Who was struggling to get on the board, and then
- 10:39Speaker 4: it was Julio coming through, and then it was you know,
- 10:42Speaker 4: with Cal getting hit the Inspire saying I've got you.
- 10:45Speaker 4: And then it was Bizarta coming in whoopsie doodle, and
- 10:48Speaker 4: then it was Emerson saying don't worry, I've got you.
- 10:51Speaker 4: It was a theme. They all had each other's backs
- 10:53Speaker 4: all night long.
- 10:54Speaker 3: I like that. I love that. Yeah, okay, I can
- 10:58Speaker 3: buy that. Yeah.
- 10:59Speaker 4: And I think there's a lot of people that have
- 11:01Speaker 4: criticized this team for not caring or their body language
- 11:03Speaker 4: and things like that all season long. If you watch
- 11:05Speaker 4: that game last night, that team cares.
- 11:08Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, And you're right. That was the embodiment
- 11:11Speaker 1: of all of that. I mean, even Dan Wilson cared
- 11:14Speaker 1: so much about not spitting his gum into the umpire's
- 11:18Speaker 1: face last night that he got ejected without even raising
- 11:22Speaker 1: his temper.
- 11:22Speaker 4: Was the calmest ejection I've ever seen. Mark was like,
- 11:26Speaker 4: can you just throw a base?
- 11:28Speaker 1: Everybody had everyone's back last night.
- 11:31Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not making light of it. I think that's
- 11:34Speaker 3: a good argument.
- 11:35Speaker 1: It felt like a night like that, And I don't
- 11:37Speaker 1: know if we have had many nights like that. So
- 11:39Speaker 1: if Gabe Spire coming back and throwing at Labor Torres
- 11:44Speaker 1: because you hit cal Raley, and that is representative of
- 11:48Speaker 1: your description. Okay, if that's the symbol, if that's the
- 11:52Speaker 1: play that symbolized we have our backs. If it took
- 11:56Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty five games or whatever to finally
- 11:59Speaker 1: have a game like that, and Gabe Spier hitting Torres
- 12:02Speaker 1: in the thigh was the symbol for we've got your
- 12:06Speaker 1: back night.
- 12:07Speaker 3: Okay. I like that. I like that narrative.
- 12:09Speaker 4: I like that reasoning, and especially when you say when
- 12:12Speaker 4: you talk about that it was Jimothy Knight who doesn't
- 12:14Speaker 4: have a full spine. Yes, I see they he needed
- 12:17Speaker 4: them to have his back too, and boy has s Yes,
- 12:22Speaker 4: there you go, sweet little guy, sweet little Jimothy.
- 12:24Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 12:25Speaker 1: So, but I mean, I'll go with it, but I
- 12:30Speaker 1: will just say this in terms of what happened during
- 12:33Speaker 1: the exchange. Now, do I have to change my opinion
- 12:39Speaker 1: on this if I'm gonna go with that, Maybe I do.
- 12:43Speaker 3: I actually in the moment was furious, Yes, how on
- 12:48Speaker 3: earth we need a win?
- 12:52Speaker 1: And the idea of putting a runner on a base
- 12:56Speaker 1: against the heart of the with the heart of the
- 12:58Speaker 1: order coming up, and we're gonna try to settle some
- 13:03Speaker 1: sort of fifteen minute old personal score.
- 13:07Speaker 3: Yeah, cow got hit in the stomach. That's a thing.
- 13:10Speaker 1: About baseball that they're all elephants. They never forget, which
- 13:14Speaker 1: means you can pick a time. In twenty twenty nine
- 13:19Speaker 1: to get back at the Detroit Tiger, Bryce Harper and
- 13:22Speaker 1: Hunter Strickland had one of the most famous fights in
- 13:24Speaker 1: the last fifteen years in Major League Baseball because Hunter
- 13:28Speaker 1: Strickland didn't like the way Harper celebrated a home.
- 13:31Speaker 3: Run three years prior.
- 13:33Speaker 1: Wow, okay, so you're gonna have long memories in Major
- 13:37Speaker 1: League Baseball and you can get your vengeance.
- 13:41Speaker 3: I don't know if that was necessary.
- 13:43Speaker 1: Yes, one got away, and we don't like to see
- 13:45Speaker 1: Cal hitting the stomach, and it looked brutal.
- 13:47Speaker 3: That was a one to two count.
- 13:50Speaker 1: I don't think that they were intending to hit a
- 13:52Speaker 1: one sixty hitter with a one two count. I don't
- 13:54Speaker 1: think anybody on the Tigers has a vendetta against Cal Rawley.
- 13:57Speaker 1: They might against Josh Naylor because if you remember earlier
- 14:01Speaker 1: in the season, that was the game where the Tiger
- 14:03Speaker 1: fans were believe Josh Naylor tried to hurt three of
- 14:06Speaker 1: their players. Yes, but then you would throw it Josh Naylor.
- 14:09Speaker 1: You wouldn't throw it cal Raley in that situation. And
- 14:13Speaker 1: so so I didn't see anything. I saw a pitch
- 14:17Speaker 1: that got away and it hit our face of our
- 14:20Speaker 1: franchise in the stomach. I didn't see that that warranted vengeance.
- 14:25Speaker 1: But if you wanted to take vengeance to me, you
- 14:29Speaker 1: take it at another time. There is way too much
- 14:32Speaker 1: at stake. We need wins desperately, and the idea that
- 14:37Speaker 1: with a three run lead you're gonna put a guy
- 14:39Speaker 1: on base to settle some fifteen minute score against someone
- 14:44Speaker 1: who didn't even do anything intentional. Man, I just thought
- 14:47Speaker 1: that was careless and reckless and dumb. But if it
- 14:53Speaker 1: ends up symbolizing we got your back night, okay, maybe
- 14:58Speaker 1: I can come around on it.
- 14:59Speaker 3: Maybe you've me into it.
- 15:01Speaker 1: I just in the moment, thought that was ridiculous by
- 15:06Speaker 1: Gabe Spire to open up the door and let the
- 15:09Speaker 1: Tigers back in a game where they have pretty much
- 15:12Speaker 1: waved the white flag. And now you fired them up,
- 15:15Speaker 1: and now you got we got to take our second
- 15:17Speaker 1: best reliever out of the game, and now we got
- 15:19Speaker 1: to bring in a righty that has been struggling as
- 15:22Speaker 1: of late to face their best hitter and he hits
- 15:24Speaker 1: a two run homer and now he got a one
- 15:26Speaker 1: run game. To me in the moment, I thought it
- 15:29Speaker 1: was ridiculous. I thought it was dumb, but maybe Ashley
- 15:32Speaker 1: shed some new light.
- 15:33Speaker 3: On it for me.
- 15:34Speaker 4: Well, And I do see your point too, because especially
- 15:36Speaker 4: had he hit him the first attempt, it's a warning, yeah,
- 15:40Speaker 4: And he's not getting kicked out right well, first of all.
- 15:42Speaker 1: And I want to clear that up too. You don't
- 15:44Speaker 1: have to warn anymore. This isn't two thousand and six.
- 15:47Speaker 1: If you if the umpires think that you threw at
- 15:49Speaker 1: somebody intentionally, they will kick you out of the game.
- 15:52Speaker 1: That's the way the game operates right now. And he
- 15:54Speaker 1: absolutely threw it the guy intentionally, because he did it twice,
- 15:58Speaker 1: and they let you do it. For those of you,
- 16:00Speaker 1: we'll let him police it themselves.
- 16:02Speaker 3: They did.
- 16:03Speaker 1: They allowed him to throw it once, but you don't
- 16:05Speaker 1: get to miss and then throw it at him again,
- 16:08Speaker 1: and that's when the umpires got together and tossed him
- 16:11Speaker 1: out of the game. I think the umpires handled it
- 16:14Speaker 1: perfectly well. I thought it was a dumb decision. But
- 16:17Speaker 1: if there is some positive galvanizing, that's the symbol.
- 16:22Speaker 3: That's what we needed.
- 16:23Speaker 1: Moment that brings this team together when we've had a
- 16:27Speaker 1: thousand different things that I thought we're going to bring
- 16:29Speaker 1: them together.
- 16:30Speaker 3: And they never did. Then great, let's celebrate it.
- 16:33Speaker 1: And Gabe Spire plunking gliber Torres to get this team
- 16:37Speaker 1: going was worth all the pain and.
- 16:39Speaker 4: Suffering, and I think it it did feel different because
- 16:44Speaker 4: I think in the past, in that situation, this team
- 16:48Speaker 4: might have crumbled where Gabe Spire hits cal and then
- 16:53Speaker 4: Bizarto comes in gives up the home run, makes it
- 16:55Speaker 4: a one run game that could have been the downward spiral,
- 17:01Speaker 4: and for it to come back and for Colt Emerson
- 17:04Speaker 4: to immediately hit the home run, it was like, oh no,
- 17:06Speaker 4: they're fired up about this too. And I don't know
- 17:08Speaker 4: if they're mad that, you know, col got hit in
- 17:11Speaker 4: the stomach, or if they're mad that Gabe and Dan
- 17:13Speaker 4: got ejected or whatever they're fired up about. There was
- 17:16Speaker 4: something different in the air after that situation than I've
- 17:20Speaker 4: seen in the past, because it could have been very deflating.
- 17:23Speaker 3: See, I thought they were already there, so I mean,
- 17:27Speaker 3: I thought.
- 17:27Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I will agree.
- 17:29Speaker 1: I think they played with an edge last all night. Yes,
- 17:32Speaker 1: Randy Rose Arena played with an edge last night. He
- 17:35Speaker 1: might not tonight. That's Randy a Rose Arena.
- 17:37Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 17:38Speaker 1: I don't know if it turns into anything, I don't
- 17:40Speaker 1: know if it creates an avalanche of momentum. This team
- 17:43Speaker 1: seems to shun momentum. Yeah, but yeah, I think it
- 17:47Speaker 1: was already there before. Here's where I'll meet you. Here's
- 17:50Speaker 1: where I'll meet you. Because I would think the Julio
- 17:52Speaker 1: homer was a bigger deal. I would think the Arose
- 17:54Speaker 1: Arena y catch was a bigger deal. I would think
- 17:57Speaker 1: that Brian Wu going seven innings and yelling into glove
- 18:00Speaker 1: was a bigger deal. I would think Colt Emerson's response
- 18:02Speaker 1: to the brawl was a bigger deal. But if it
- 18:06Speaker 1: was part of the evening, yeah, like you put the
- 18:10Speaker 1: theme of I Got your back night, and now the
- 18:14Speaker 1: entire team now.
- 18:15Speaker 3: Knows they've got each other's backs, and it.
- 18:18Speaker 1: Leads to them galvanized, focused and playing how they're capable of.
- 18:24Speaker 3: Then let's celebrate that thing. Yeah, celebrate the hell out
- 18:27Speaker 3: of it.
- 18:27Speaker 1: I hope that if it's Jimithy, it's Jimothy. I don't
- 18:30Speaker 1: whatever it air? Yeah, what it is this team has
- 18:34Speaker 1: waited four months to start playing the way that they're
- 18:37Speaker 1: capable of. If it started last night, I don't care
- 18:40Speaker 1: what credit we give for a spark.
- 18:44Speaker 3: Let's go. It's time.
- 18:46Speaker 4: Yeah, and I will reiterate I do think it was
- 18:47Speaker 4: part of it. I just was saying, like in the
- 18:50Speaker 4: past we've seen in that situation, I think this team
- 18:52Speaker 4: could have crumbled because it could have been just let
- 18:56Speaker 4: the air out of the building. Oh no, here we go.
- 18:59Speaker 4: This just went so and and because of last night,
- 19:02Speaker 4: because of that theme, because of the you know, stacking one,
- 19:06Speaker 4: I got your back on top of the other. They
- 19:09Speaker 4: didn't crumble and they came out on top and it
- 19:12Speaker 4: was awesome.
- 19:12Speaker 1: I gotta say this just quickly, and that we're probably
- 19:15Speaker 1: gonna be We're probably gonna be late because of it.
- 19:17Speaker 1: But I mean, I got some support for that Texas
- 19:20Speaker 1: or tweet I sent last night, and I got some pushback,
- 19:23Speaker 1: and all of it was very fair, all of it
- 19:24Speaker 1: was above board. Nobody was nasty. But one guy responded with, yeah,
- 19:29Speaker 1: it totally just turned the season around.
- 19:32Speaker 5: Yeah, Okay, first of all, We don't have any evidence
- 19:36Speaker 5: that this is going to turn into anything. Secondly, there
- 19:39Speaker 5: were a lot of other things that might have turned
- 19:41Speaker 5: the season around, if it turned the season around. Thirdly,
- 19:44Speaker 5: we got out scored after that.
- 19:46Speaker 1: Yeah, we got outscored two to one.
- 19:50Speaker 3: And you've already determined that.
- 19:53Speaker 4: Unless he was being sarcastic like buzz maybe maybe I
- 19:57Speaker 4: don't think so.
- 19:58Speaker 1: I've seen him tweet before. All right, let's find out
- 20:02Speaker 1: what's on tap for the rest of the show.
- 20:05Speaker 3: Have your attention please.
- 20:06Speaker 2: This is what's on TAP's brought to you by Emerald

- 20:20Speaker 1: Mariner's four Tigers to the team now three games under
- 20:23Speaker 1: five hundred. I know that doesn't sound very good, but
- 20:26Speaker 1: you did gain a full game on first place Houston
- 20:28Speaker 1: last night, which lost, so two and a half games
- 20:31Speaker 1: back and plenty of time to make that ground up.
- 20:34Speaker 1: You try to win the series against the Tigers today.
- 20:37Speaker 1: Bryce Miller will start for the Mariners at one ten
- 20:39Speaker 1: and oh, by the way, if you think that last
- 20:42Speaker 1: night's Shenanigans are over. Oh boy, think again, because Framber
- 20:47Speaker 1: Valdez doesn't need any.
- 20:48Speaker 3: Excuse to throw at other hitters.
- 20:50Speaker 4: Sure does not.
- 20:51Speaker 1: I mean, he is the number one villain in the
- 20:54Speaker 1: sport right now when it comes to not understanding sort
- 20:59Speaker 1: of the unspoken rules of the game. So he's probably
- 21:03Speaker 1: gonna hit the first three hitters in the kneecap to
- 21:05Speaker 1: start the game.
- 21:06Speaker 4: Today and then he'll be ejected, which he'll be great.
- 21:08Speaker 3: Yeah, that'd be great.
- 21:08Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 21:09Speaker 1: Yeah, So, yes, that's who we're facing today. Yeah, gotta
- 21:14Speaker 1: go against the lefty. But to Ashley's point, maybe he
- 21:16Speaker 1: won't be around very long. The Dodgers have not won
- 21:19Speaker 1: since they added Trek Schouble. By the way, they have
- 21:22Speaker 1: lost six straight games. They just got swept for a
- 21:24Speaker 1: second straight series, this time by the Chicago Cubs. This
- 21:27Speaker 1: has been a big topic all week long, or the
- 21:29Speaker 1: Dodgers ruining the sport. I've talked about it a couple
- 21:31Speaker 1: of times at length. I won't do that again, Hugh
- 21:35Speaker 1: Millen will. So he was gonna join us today at
- 21:38Speaker 1: nine o'clock, and honestly, for a very good reason. He's
- 21:41Speaker 1: got some tremendous insight into this issue. That he and
- 21:45Speaker 1: I discussed off the air last week when he was
- 21:48Speaker 1: co hosting with me, and I think we need to
- 21:51Speaker 1: bring it on to the air because he's got some
- 21:53Speaker 1: really interesting He's got a really interesting point of view
- 21:56Speaker 1: on this because he was there as an NFL player
- 22:01Speaker 1: when they adopted the salary cap in the National Football League,
- 22:05Speaker 1: so he was there to hear all the arguments back
- 22:07Speaker 1: and forth, and so we're gonna talk to him about that.
- 22:10Speaker 3: At nine o'clock today.
- 22:11Speaker 1: Snowhomish Little League wins over Canada nine to one. Yeah,
- 22:14Speaker 1: they got beat up by Florida, but they've done nothing
- 22:17Speaker 1: but cruse ever since. So are Snowhomish Softball team still
- 22:21Speaker 1: alive in the Little League World Series. They will play
- 22:23Speaker 1: next tomorrow at noon. They do not know their opponent
- 22:27Speaker 1: just yet. The Hall of Fame game is tonight in
- 22:29Speaker 1: the National Football League.
- 22:31Speaker 3: That's right.
- 22:31Speaker 1: Preseason football starts tonight Arizona Cardinals against the Carollina Panthers,
- 22:36Speaker 1: and of course Hall of Fame Weekend is upcoming as well,
- 22:39Speaker 1: where Larry Fitzgerald, Luke Keigley, and Drew Brees are the
- 22:43Speaker 1: headliners and an always headlined class for the National Football
- 22:48Speaker 1: League Hall of Fame weekend induction ceremony in Canton. Seahawks
- 22:52Speaker 1: training camp of course continues. Greg Bell will join us
- 22:55Speaker 1: today at seven oh five. We'll have another camp battle
- 22:57Speaker 1: for you later this hour. Husky's training camp start arts
- 23:00Speaker 1: today as well, which is what I was going to
- 23:02Speaker 1: lead with today until we had galvanized gate. So Elise
- 23:07Speaker 1: Woodward is going to join us the voice of the
- 23:09Speaker 1: Huskies today at eight o'clock to wet your whistle for
- 23:12Speaker 1: a little college football. And the Liberty, by the way,
- 23:16Speaker 1: one over the storm last night by a final.
- 23:18Speaker 3: Score of ninety two eighty six.
- 23:20Speaker 1: So those are your headlines coming up next Mariners morning
- 23:23Speaker 1: after we'll get into some of the gritty details here
- 23:26Speaker 1: from some of the party and more Sports Radio ninety
- 23:29Speaker 1: three point three KJRFM. He says, do not ever underestimate
- 23:33Speaker 1: whatever gives you the chip on your shoulder, the way
- 23:35Speaker 1: that Tom Brady functions where he'll be at the grocery
- 23:40Speaker 1: store and if he feels like he didn't get discount
- 23:42Speaker 1: the proper discount on oranges, that might have fueled him
- 23:46Speaker 1: to win his third Super Bowl, right, I mean, who
- 23:49Speaker 1: knows what chip you need? Michael Jordan looked for a
- 23:51Speaker 1: chip every single time. So Hughes told us, I believe it.
- 23:54Speaker 1: You're just studying the.
- 23:55Speaker 3: Histories of the two goats.
- 23:57Speaker 1: Who knows what gives you that chip, But apparently, and
- 24:00Speaker 1: I think today's athletes especially, you know, they need that ship.
- 24:04Speaker 1: So if it was CaAl getting hit in the stomach
- 24:07Speaker 1: and people want to believe that that's the thing that's
- 24:08Speaker 1: going to start this thing, fine.
- 24:10Speaker 3: Great, let's do it.
- 24:12Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not going to criticize.
- 24:14Speaker 3: It whatever it takes.
- 24:15Speaker 1: And so if this brawl, which I don't really feel
- 24:20Speaker 1: like that was some big momentum change, we got outscored
- 24:23Speaker 1: after that. We were winning at the time and got
- 24:25Speaker 1: outscored after that. But if that's what people want to believe,
- 24:29Speaker 1: I mean, people still do this believe they believe that
- 24:31Speaker 1: Jesse Winker sparked everything a few seasons ago in that
- 24:35Speaker 1: Angel series when he flipped off the crowd. Now, I'll
- 24:38Speaker 1: tell you to a man, they don't want him to
- 24:40Speaker 1: get credit for that because they felt they were already
- 24:43Speaker 1: playing great baseball and Jesse Winker had nothing to do
- 24:48Speaker 1: with it. They were already building up to that, and
- 24:50Speaker 1: they don't want Jesse Winker to get credit for it.
- 24:52Speaker 1: But a lot of people still believe it to this day.
- 24:54Speaker 1: So whatever it takes, I don't care. In this particular case,
- 24:59Speaker 1: I don't care what the ingredients make me a delicious cake.
- 25:02Speaker 1: That's all I've cared about for the rest of this season.
- 25:05Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not going to ask you what's in it.
- 25:06Speaker 4: I'm just gonna dive on in. I'm gonna do it normally,
- 25:08Speaker 4: I might, I'm not going to, No, not this time.
- 25:10Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Marin this morning after a recap of
- 25:14Speaker 1: last night's Mariners game, and it was terrific, terrific for
- 25:17Speaker 1: the team, and as Ashley Amply aptly put it, maybe
- 25:21Speaker 1: it was we got your back night and maybe it
- 25:24Speaker 1: is something that will signal a turnaround. We've been waiting
- 25:27Speaker 1: for it for four months. But this is the postgame show.
- 25:30Speaker 1: We just do it the morning after a highlight of
- 25:32Speaker 1: sound by the preview of what's going on today, the
- 25:36Speaker 1: Mariner's taking on the Detroit Tigers. Obviously, they didn't score
- 25:39Speaker 1: the night before it and ate nothing shut out, and
- 25:41Speaker 1: they were having trouble scoring again last night against Drew
- 25:44Speaker 1: Anderson and company. I did tell you again yesterday, I'm
- 25:49Speaker 1: giving you a pretty good scouting reports on these pitchers
- 25:52Speaker 1: that he's a talented pitcher, but he's not gonna go
- 25:54Speaker 1: very long in the game. And you'll start to get
- 25:56Speaker 1: to him in about the third and fourth inning, which
- 25:58Speaker 1: is what happened. Didn't score any runs though against him,
- 26:02Speaker 1: start putting some people on base, but didn't score any
- 26:05Speaker 1: runs against Drew Anderson. And then they go to the
- 26:07Speaker 1: bullpen midway through the fourth inning, and you're still not
- 26:10Speaker 1: putting any runs on the board. But then that finally
- 26:14Speaker 1: changed in the bottom of the sixth inning in a
- 26:17Speaker 1: scoreless tie, you had one out, excuse me, you had
- 26:21Speaker 1: two outs, two outs. First two batters at the inning
- 26:24Speaker 1: got out. Another pitching change from aj Hinch. This one backfires.
- 26:28Speaker 1: Randy a rose Arena doubles down the left field line.
- 26:31Speaker 1: Dom Canzone gets intentionally walked so that the righty specialist
- 26:37Speaker 1: can face the right hander Julio Rodriguez. And I'm telling.
- 26:41Speaker 3: You you could see it in his crystal.
- 26:43Speaker 1: Blue eyes that man went to that plate with savage intent.
- 26:49Speaker 3: First pitch copy to Julio.
- 26:51Speaker 1: He shoots this deep out to right field, tearing back.
- 26:55Speaker 1: It's a three rod bum rod, and Julio puts the
- 27:00Speaker 1: Mariners on the board.
- 27:06Speaker 3: Oh does that feel good up here? I know it
- 27:08Speaker 3: feels good for him. That's a huge swinging right there.
- 27:14Speaker 1: Julio Rodriguez with the three run homer to give the
- 27:18Speaker 1: Mariners the lead. Jay Buhner, Aaron Goldsmith there on the call.
- 27:21Speaker 1: Ryan was in there somewhere too, Mariners TV. But huge,
- 27:25Speaker 1: huge moment. He went up there looking home run. He
- 27:28Speaker 1: swaging viciously, he was looking outside, he was looking to
- 27:32Speaker 1: drive it to right field. And the plan came together,
- 27:36Speaker 1: and man was he pumped as he circled the bases.
- 27:39Speaker 1: That was enormous for him and for the team last night.
- 27:42Speaker 4: I just love to like his reaction towards his dugout
- 27:45Speaker 4: after he's after he did the big swing and he
- 27:48Speaker 4: holds onto the bat for a second. When he sees
- 27:50Speaker 4: it gone, he shoves it. It wasn't a bat toss.
- 27:53Speaker 4: He shoved it towards the dugout and the chest and
- 27:56Speaker 4: the looking at them. It wasn't any it wasn't show
- 27:59Speaker 4: voting to any else. He was like, again, I got
- 28:03Speaker 4: your back, let's go. And it was awesome. I loved it.
- 28:06Speaker 1: Yeah, awesome. I think the most important thing of the night.
- 28:08Speaker 1: But there were a lot of important things. During the
- 28:11Speaker 1: course of the night, including some phenomenal defense in the
- 28:15Speaker 1: fourth inning played by behind Brian Wu and by some
- 28:19Speaker 1: of the most unlikely characters we have on the defensive
- 28:23Speaker 1: side of the ball. Randy rose Arenas had his struggles
- 28:25Speaker 1: all year long, dom Canzone. He could read a scouting purport,
- 28:29Speaker 1: just not considered a good defensive right fielder, and yet
- 28:33Speaker 1: the two of them combined for highlight after highlight last night,
- 28:37Speaker 1: particularly in the fourth inning when a Rose Arena threw
- 28:41Speaker 1: out a runner at third base and also robbed a
- 28:43Speaker 1: home run from Colt Keith, and it kept it scoreless
- 28:47Speaker 1: at that time for Brian Wu and company, and it
- 28:50Speaker 1: allowed Julio Rodriguez home run to give us a three
- 28:53Speaker 1: run lead, and they carried that momentum to a four
- 28:56Speaker 1: to two victory last night over the Tigers. Here's Brian
- 28:59Speaker 1: Wo who he was asked after the game, what was
- 29:02Speaker 1: your favorite defensive play behind you tonight?
- 29:05Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 29:05Speaker 7: A lot, all of them. I mean unbelievable. Yeah, I mean,
- 29:14Speaker 7: like just going back, like anything going over your left
- 29:19Speaker 7: shoulder or your right shoulder as alrighty is tough ball
- 29:22Speaker 7: was carrying. That's a pretty tough play. I mean, obviously
- 29:26Speaker 7: with how many runs it saved and just the timing
- 29:29Speaker 7: of it it was. I mean that was awesome. But like, yeah,
- 29:31Speaker 7: they were they were all great. Dom was was great.
- 29:34Speaker 7: Julio made a bunch of good ones infield was awesome.
- 29:39Speaker 7: I mean it was full full display to night. Overall
- 29:43Speaker 7: felt better. I feel like count command was was much
- 29:47Speaker 7: much better. Yeah, the hit by pitches were definitely frustrating,
- 29:51Speaker 7: just kind of uncharacteristic in terms of in spots that
- 29:55Speaker 7: were you know, two of them were with with two
- 29:58Speaker 7: strikes and overall just happy with with the count stuff,
- 30:03Speaker 7: being ahead and doing a lot of things that I
- 30:05Speaker 7: wanted to do. The message, honestly, is more just it's
- 30:09Speaker 7: not as much like it's got to look a certain
- 30:12Speaker 7: way or feel a certain way. Like you know, it's
- 30:14Speaker 7: it's been an ugly, you know season in terms of
- 30:17Speaker 7: what we expected or what we wanted, but you know
- 30:20Speaker 7: that we still can do what we want to do
- 30:23Speaker 7: in terms of where you know, the americanly looks like
- 30:29Speaker 7: and what the West looks like like it's a weird
- 30:31Speaker 7: thing about baseball, but yeah, just continuing to show up
- 30:35Speaker 7: every day and stick stick together I think is the
- 30:38Speaker 7: biggest thing.
- 30:38Speaker 1: You know, I don't know if I've ever heard anyone
- 30:41Speaker 1: who has combined being mellow, expressive and self critical the
- 30:49Speaker 1: way that Brian wu does. Like usually you're like one
- 30:53Speaker 1: of those things, and he come combines them every time.
- 30:56Speaker 3: That he speaks.
- 30:58Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm over emotional, but I'm calm when I tell
- 31:02Speaker 1: you about it. And if you listen to my words,
- 31:05Speaker 1: you can hear how much I beat myself up on
- 31:07Speaker 1: a daily basis.
- 31:08Speaker 4: Yes, but also I will not change the tone of
- 31:10Speaker 4: my voice. But you can tell how excited I am
- 31:12Speaker 4: about my teammates and what they did tonight.
- 31:15Speaker 1: And he was great last night too. And I know
- 31:17Speaker 1: he got bailed out in the fourth, but he allowed
- 31:18Speaker 1: three hits on the night over seven innings, and he
- 31:21Speaker 1: played his role in keeping them off the board as well.
- 31:25Speaker 1: And then of course the dust up late in the
- 31:28Speaker 1: game that led to the Tigers getting back on a
- 31:30Speaker 1: Dylandingler home run, and then the response Colt Emerson after
- 31:34Speaker 1: his manager and pitcher got ejected from the game late
- 31:38Speaker 1: comes back with the solo home run. There was a lot,
- 31:41Speaker 1: There was a lot to discuss from last night's four
- 31:44Speaker 1: to two victory.
- 31:45Speaker 3: We're certainly not done with it.
- 31:46Speaker 1: We'll talk more about it a little bit later on
- 31:48Speaker 1: in the show, but it's that time in Mariner's Morning
- 31:51Speaker 1: After to tell you what's next. Today they will play
- 31:53Speaker 1: the third and final game of the series. It'll be
- 31:55Speaker 1: a one ten start. Bryce Miller will start for us.
- 31:58Speaker 1: That's a great thing. Valdez will go for them. And
- 32:02Speaker 1: as I've already mentioned once in the show, but it's
- 32:04Speaker 1: worth repeating. If you think that there won't be a
- 32:08Speaker 1: follow up to the dust up last night, well that's it.
- 32:13Speaker 1: There could not have been a dust up last night.
- 32:15Speaker 1: And there was a good chance for Ambervaldez was going
- 32:17Speaker 1: to throw at somebody today. Yes, So now that we've
- 32:20Speaker 1: had a dust up, you know for a fact that
- 32:22Speaker 1: we're going to have somebody thrown at at some point
- 32:25Speaker 1: in the game today.
- 32:25Speaker 3: So we might have I mean, we.
- 32:28Speaker 1: Had a bench clearing incident last night, but there was
- 32:31Speaker 1: no brawl.
- 32:32Speaker 3: We could have a brawl today, you never know.
- 32:35Speaker 4: Yeah, yesterday was just a bench clearing talking. It was
- 32:39Speaker 4: like a bench clearing chat session.
- 32:41Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, those old bench clearing chat sessions. The benches
- 32:44Speaker 1: are cleared and they are coming out to reasonably disgust that.
- 32:47Speaker 4: They are going to talk.
- 32:50Speaker 1: All right, we'll talk more about it later. Coming up next, though,
- 32:52Speaker 1: we should talk some Seahawks. We got a camp battle
- 32:55Speaker 1: that doesn't have anything to do with Jadarian Price. Next
- 32:58Speaker 1: Sports Radio ninety three point three hr FM.
- 33:01Speaker 3: Was this a big moment?
- 33:02Speaker 4: And she wore like the dresses with the fringe and
- 33:04Speaker 4: her legs were just like I got this big crazy hair.
- 33:09Speaker 3: Oh god, she was the best, big, big ass voice.
- 33:11Speaker 4: I wanted to be Tina Turner.
- 33:13Speaker 3: Did you really apsoluted a?
- 33:16Speaker 4: I could picture us?
- 33:16Speaker 3: T uh huh.
- 33:17Speaker 1: Boy, the number of times I chit chatted with buddies
- 33:20Speaker 1: about like what would.
- 33:21Speaker 3: It take for me to be the next Tina Turner?
- 33:23Speaker 4: Did you guys both come from like each side? And
- 33:25Speaker 4: he ran into the middle like you were gonna have
- 33:27Speaker 4: a brawl, But then he just talked about Tina Turner.
- 33:29Speaker 4: Uh yeah, yeah that's what I thought.
- 33:31Speaker 3: Yeah, nailed it. What happens, it's time for a camp battle.
- 33:34Speaker 1: We got Greg Bell to give us more information on
- 33:37Speaker 1: this coming up at seven oh five. But yesterday on
- 33:39Speaker 1: the radio program, we had both Stevens, the fifth round
- 33:42Speaker 1: pick out of Iowa. You know, we sort of read into, hey,
- 33:47Speaker 1: if there is a week link on the offensive line,
- 33:50Speaker 1: it's Anthony Bradford, but a lot of that stems from
- 33:53Speaker 1: how poorly he played in the first half of last season.
- 33:56Speaker 1: He did not play well, but he played much better.
- 33:58Speaker 1: We weren't pointing out Anthony Bradford nearly as much, and
- 34:02Speaker 1: really that is my.
- 34:02Speaker 3: Measuring stick for an offensive lineman. If I don't.
- 34:05Speaker 1: Notice how crappy you are, you probably played a pretty
- 34:08Speaker 1: good game. Yeah that's guys like you, Mike McDonald. They
- 34:12Speaker 1: go a little deeper. They can give me a little
- 34:15Speaker 1: better insight into whether or not Anthony Bradford had a
- 34:18Speaker 1: good or bad game. But he had a lot of
- 34:20Speaker 1: moments where he was exposed early in the season, but
- 34:23Speaker 1: very few by the end of the year. And yet
- 34:26Speaker 1: when you draft a guard, everybody read into Bo Stevens
- 34:29Speaker 1: might be after Anthony Bradford's job here in training camp.
- 34:34Speaker 1: But to talk to bow yesterday, it sounds like, man,
- 34:37Speaker 1: I'm just trying to survive out here, not really thinking
- 34:41Speaker 1: about any kind of starting job.
- 34:43Speaker 3: I just want to get some respect.
- 34:45Speaker 6: But it's weird because it's like, yeah, I'm married, but
- 34:47Speaker 6: then I'm the rookie at this team, so it's like, yeah,
- 34:51Speaker 6: like I'm getting treated like a little kid. Here and there,
- 34:53Speaker 6: and it's just weird. It's like, yeah, I'm married, but
- 34:56Speaker 6: I'm like the lowest of the low right now when
- 34:59Speaker 6: it comes to the OFFENSI.
- 35:00Speaker 1: Were you used to leadership role the last few years.
- 35:03Speaker 3: I would assume that you were.
- 35:04Speaker 6: Yeah. No, It's really weird because it's like every time
- 35:07Speaker 6: you go to another level, you always start back at
- 35:09Speaker 6: square one, and like being in college, you really grow
- 35:14Speaker 6: up throughout that process, and so it's like now an
- 35:17Speaker 6: even bigger level and it's not like just the transition
- 35:21Speaker 6: from high school to college's like it's even more so.
- 35:25Speaker 6: I definitely get a lot of crab.
- 35:28Speaker 3: It's a lot of crap.
- 35:28Speaker 1: He's being treated like he's being treated like the rookie,
- 35:31Speaker 1: Go get me my bag. Yeah, I mean, don't think
- 35:34Speaker 1: about him taking Anthony Bradford's job right now.
- 35:36Speaker 3: He's just taken Anthony Bradford's.
- 35:37Speaker 1: Equipment from the locker room out to the field. That's
- 35:42Speaker 1: where he's starting in all of this, and I don't
- 35:44Speaker 1: know if he's making all that much headway based on
- 35:48Speaker 1: what I've heard. He's being indoctrinated and it's the first
- 35:51Speaker 1: week and a half, for goodness sake of being a
- 35:53Speaker 1: professional football player. He's got a lot of learning to do.
- 35:55Speaker 1: He'll even admit that. But how strange is that we
- 35:59Speaker 1: always under estimate the psychology of sports. But you went
- 36:03Speaker 1: from being I am the leader, I'm the alpha male,
- 36:06Speaker 1: I am a captain, I am an All American, I
- 36:09Speaker 1: am a three year starter. I bleed Hawkeye, black and gold.
- 36:13Speaker 1: Everybody in Iowa knows my name, and I have the
- 36:17Speaker 1: respect of the entire building too. Suddenly you're carrying people's
- 36:21Speaker 1: bags out onto the field and just trying to make
- 36:24Speaker 1: a name for yourself. That's what Bo Stevens is going
- 36:27Speaker 1: through right now. So forget about a camp battle. The
- 36:30Speaker 1: job's Anthony Bradford's. If anyone has a job has a
- 36:33Speaker 1: chance to take it from him, it's Christian ayines. It's
- 36:35Speaker 1: not going to be Bo Stevens, not for a while anyway.
- 36:37Speaker 1: So I think we probably need to lay this thing
- 36:41Speaker 1: to bed because I think Anthony Bradford's.
- 36:43Speaker 4: Locked in is our starting right card this year, and
- 36:45Speaker 4: I think by the way he ended the season, he
- 36:47Speaker 4: deserves that respect. I mean, he got bashed a lot
- 36:51Speaker 4: by a lot of people who didn't think he was
- 36:53Speaker 4: doing well, which he wasn't. It was fair criticism, but
- 36:56Speaker 4: I think at the same time, yeah, we got to
- 36:57Speaker 4: give him as flowers when they'redue as well.
- 36:59Speaker 3: Nineteen It would be proud of us right now. Thanks Headlines,
