• 1:12
  Speaker 1: you know you don't up to stare into an empty
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: room here today.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, today I thought about not even turning on the lights.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know if it's an upgrade in the dark.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I feel like I'm not in a box. Oh okay,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: I mean I still am.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: She is Ansh in the box.
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that's basically it. I had to think about
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: that one for a second very popular song.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah knows that one?
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: They do? They do? I promise you everybody knows Man
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: in the Box, of course they do.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, all right.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Well, welcome into the show here on this Wednesday. Great
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: to have you with us here today, and Man Sports
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: sometimes does you a little bit of a favor. Obviously,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: we are in training camp mode. We switched over to
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: that on Monday. We've had you million with us out
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: at the Virginia Mason Athletics Center throughout the course of
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: the week. He will be on with us again today.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: But now that we are back in studio and because
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: there won't be practice today at the vMac, well, guess
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: what he's going to be with us today but from
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: eight to ten, So we got plenty of opportunity to
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: pick his brain about what he saw yesterday at Seahawks
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: training camp. Got a brand new feature that we're going
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: to introduce that revolves around Hugh, So we've got that
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: coming up at eight o'clock. So we're gonna get pretty
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: heavy into Seahawks from eight to ten. But since he's
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: not coming into until eight o'clock to talk football, guess
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: what we get to just fully embrace this baseball game
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: last night. Yeh, Because I mean, yes, as needed a
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: win as you could get from the Mariners, but everything
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: else aside, it was just a purely entertaining baseball game.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: It was the most entertaining baseball game that I've watched
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: all season long, whether it was Mariner involved or not,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the back and forth, the power display. Maybe it's because
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: we're so starved for seeing offense that it just wow,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: this is new and different and exciting. Wow, we're scoring
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: a lot of runs.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: And we need them all scoring a run.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: That's fun, and we need every single one of them,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: as it turns out. And so it was just a
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: fantastic game. I mean, I mean, I realized that the atmosphere,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's Dodger fans. They're leaving in the seventh inning,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: so the atmosphere may not have felt like a playoff atmosphere.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Maybe the Dodgers weren't treating it as such, but the
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: Mariners kind of started that game treating it like we
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: have to win this game. That's the way it felt.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: I was on the edge of my seat. I didn't
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: miss a pitch last night. It was just entertaining sports
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: last night, and thank goodness, because we almost didn't. Thank goodness,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: the Mariners pull it off because they obviously needed that
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: victory a lot more than what the Dodgers did. So
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: it was a fantastic baseball game.
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think even if you were if you had
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: that on and you weren't invested like we were with
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: the Mariners, you're like, Okay, well done both teams.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: That was really fun. Thank you for the entertainment for
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: the last three hours.
• 4:29
  Speaker 5: But now coming from a Mariner's perspective where you are
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: invested as.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: A Mariners fan, it was freaking great. Honestly.
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: It was so Five Iron was coming home from Nashville
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: last night and he walked in the door and I
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: just turned the game off in the living room to
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: go into the bedroom to turn it back on to
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: start getting ready for bed and finish it there, and
• 4:53
  Speaker 5: Palmer the Great lost something, so I was trying to
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: help her find it while trying to hurry to get
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: back to the bedroom to turn it back on, and
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: five Iron walks in from Nashville says, Hi.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Why isn't the Mariners came on?
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: I mean the first thing, he says, I was like, well,
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: I'm going blah blah blah, so then he goes in
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: the living room, he turns that on, and then I
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: was like, well, okay, if he's home now, I'll just
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: finish watching in.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: The living room. And I was doing half my superstitious thing.
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: It's like, oh gosh, come on. I mean, it was
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: so stressful down to the very end. And then yeah,
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: to see Cal hit that home run, to see Julio
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: hit a home run, to see Rob Refsnyder hit a
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: home run, I mean, it was great.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: Well, it was great, And unfortunately we haven't been treated
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: to enough games like that, because obviously this is a
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: talented team that cannot get into groove and just because
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: they won last night doesn't mean they're going to get
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: into one now. But I think part of the problem
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: with the Mariners this season and the reason that we've
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: yet to see them become who we think they're capable
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: of becoming. Look, I bring it down to two things,
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: and I think that both of the those things are
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: laid right at the player's feet. But a manager does
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: have to make sure that you are inspiring such behavior
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: every single night, or at least most nights. And the
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: two things, I mean, there are a lot of f
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: words here from five iron to all sorts of things
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: here that I'm going to f focus on. But fire
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: and focus, and those are two things that you want
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: to There have been plenty of times during the course
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: of the season where we're like, man, they just played,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: they just played listlessly. They didn't play like they cared.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: How many times have you heard that? How many times
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: have you felt that this season? And we know that
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: they care, I mean, they care, they want to win.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: If anything, the pressure of winning them realizing the expectations
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: that they placed on themselves might have led to them
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: at some times being caught f as for flat footed,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: because I think that they've sat while in the middle
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: of games, like what is going on? Why can't we win?
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Why can't we get a big hit in the moment?
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Why are we fumbling the ball around? Or maybe never
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: looking at yourself in the mirror, but why is Roblaze
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: fumbling the ball? You know? Yeah, I think that we've
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: questioned the fire a lot. But I don't think last
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: night was about fire. I don't think that Dan Wilson,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: whatever was said from Monday afternoon on the plane ride
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: from Dallas to la whatever was said from the time
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: that game ended and you lost three out of four
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: to the Rangers, and you started game one of three
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: in Los Angeles against the best team in the world.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Whatever was communicated, and I don't know who led it.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: I don't think it was a raw Ross speech. I
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: think it was a call to arms. I think it
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: because what I saw last night, it wasn't a fiery team.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: I didn't see a team out their raw rah and.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: You know, energy, having all the fun and like yeah
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: we got this.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah. It wasn't on a scale from one to ten
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: eleven fiery what I saw last night. And I don't
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: think I was imagining it because I noticed it on
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Julio's home run early. I think I noticed it on
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Cow's home run in the second because they fell behind
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: one to nothing. I think I noticed it in Luis Castillo,
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: even though he wasn't even great last night. That was
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: a focused effort that was we are here for business
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: and we can't f is for f around anymore. We
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: are out of time. The best way to turn this
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: season around is to come in here and smoke the
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Dodgers is the That is the best fis for formula
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: that we can come up with to get this thing
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: turned around and put in the right direction. But from
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Julio being aggressive at the plate. I thought he was
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: great last night. That's the best game he's played. He
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: was aggressive on the base paths. He was aggressive defensively
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: last night. And I don't want you to be over
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: aggressive because that leads to carelessness. But focus aggression. Like
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: he hit that home run and there wasn't any like
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: celebrating or baton twirling or anything else. He ran around
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: the bases, never even put a smile on his face,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: got in the dugout and it's like, let's go. That's
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: that's that's how col rounded the basis last night. Rob
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Ressnyder hits a home run last night, and I'm pretty
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: sure this is what he said. I'm not John Boy,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not a great lip reader, but I'm pretty sure
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: he crossed that home plate. He got to the dugout
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: and he said, give me that effing thing. That's what
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: talking about the Tridad. Yeah, gimme that effing thing. That's
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: what I think that he said. There was such a
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: focus on this team, Ashley. Even Luis Castillo, who I
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: know wasn't great last night, that's a great lineup that
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: he was facing. Yes, and he ended up giving up
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: five runs before he or four runs before. No, it
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: was five five, five runs before he got out after
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: just the fifth end. That's a nine era. He wasn't
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: great last night, ye a lot of but it could
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: have been a lot worse. And some of the pitches
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: that he made with runners on base to some really
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: good hitters, I mean, he worked his way. He gutted
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: it out. This is the guy that's been involved in
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: trade rumors for the last month, and he gutted it
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: out on a lot of pitches last year, a lot
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: of great pitches and a lot of really hitting advantage
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: counts last night to get himself out of even more trouble.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: So that the Dodgers didn't run away with that thing
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: last night. I mean, maybe I'm imagining it. I promise
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: you I'm not saying it just because they won. Sometimes
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: people do that. I just noticed a different focus last night.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: And so whatever speech was given, whoever gave it, whatever
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: meeting was held, however that plane ride went down from
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Dallas to Los Angeles, it was effective because that to
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: me was a team that was on a mission last night,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: and I loved it. I just loved it. And it
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: has been way too long since I f has forefelt
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: that way about the Mariners in a baseball game.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: I would one agree with that right there.
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: I don't remember the last time I watched a game
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: and felt like I did throughout the game and at
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: the end of the game you.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Had We've had a couple where it's like, ooh.
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: Maybe we're in this baby, We're in but and that
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: we're staying with it the whole time, and that we're
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: seeing these things. And yes, there was that Bob that
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: mistake by Roeblacee, and you thought, oh gosh, here we go.
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: We're going to screw this up, especially when he just
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: came in to be the defensive upgrade from Dom Canzone.
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: I was like, that was you know, there were certain moments,
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: but that wasn't a lack of focus.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: That was that caused that?
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: And maybe I don't know, well, I mean, it wasn't a.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: Lack of effort.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: One turd and a punch bowl and it wasn't a
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: lack of effort for sure, But I'm talking about something
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: different than effort. Yeah, I'm talking about absolute focus. And
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: maybe that wasn't a good defensive switch because he does
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: have a tendency to be lax at times, and so.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: But then sometimes you get Superman.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Yes you do.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, Yeah, So I mean I don't hate the switch.
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: It just was glaring, you know, it was obviously which
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: would be so Mariners that you wouldn't hate the switch,
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: and then that would happen.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: But I know the time.
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, there was even that quote from Rob Refsteier who said, like,
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: I feel really blieve about how I've played.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: We've tried a lot of different things. There's no excuses.
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: But I think if we can all just focus on
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: doing our job the best we can, I think we
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: all know how talented we are as a group, and.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: And so I do agree.
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: I don't think that that speech that they had on
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: the plane was hey, guys, come on, we're really good.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: We should be better than this. I think it was
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: what the eff are we doing a call at? Better
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: than this? Yes, and we are not showing anyone.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: We are not showing ourselves, we are not showing our fans,
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: we are not showing other teams.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Get our bleep together.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: A lot of bleeps out here in this.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: I would assume there was.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would think so. And I loved what I
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: heard from cal like Calc sort of acknowledged like that
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: was a really good win. That's the type of win
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: he acknowledged it afterwards. That's the type of win that
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: turns things around. But it doesn't mean anything if we
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: don't come out the next day and repeat the exact
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: same focus, the exact same effort, all of that. And
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: so it's a start, it's a start to a turnaround.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: But if this team has lacked one thing, one predominant
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: thing this year, it is they cannot take advantage of
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: any momentum whatsoever. They just can't do it.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: True.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: I mean, we are one hundred and eight games into this,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: so I'm certainly not counting on seeing the same focused
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: effort tonight as I saw last night.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: I'd love to be surprised, I I.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: But I saw a different team last night. I saw
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: a different bucket. Lucke this word approach, and I'm not
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: just talking about a hitting approach. I'm talking about an
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: approach to your profession. I'm talking about an approach to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: your responsibilities as an individual player and as a teammate
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: to everyone else who is counting on you. To be
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: focused and coming through in every single moment. Doesn't mean
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: you have to thrive, but you have to be ready
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: for every single moment. That's why I think maybe Roeblaze
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: was the outlier. Maybe a night on the bench for
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: a guy that sometimes is out chasing butterflies in the outfield,
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe that was the one guy that might
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: not be as focused as everybody else. And damn it
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: if the ball isn't hit to him in a really
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: crucial moment, but Muno skits out of it. I mean,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Munos was throwing one hundred and three last night.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Yet I was.
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: Thinking about that because we're people saying he lost his velocity,
• 14:53
  Speaker 5: and then I was like, gosh, I don't know, it
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: seems like his velocity might have increased.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: Yes, he never lost it. He never lost his stuff.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: He lost it slider for a little while, he did,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: and he wasn't pitching enough. That was the reason. But
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: now we got Mooney back, Moondoggie. We got Moondoggie back
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: right now. But I mean, it's not a coincidence that
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: he threw his hardest of the entire season last night
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: at one three. And that's what I'm talking about. It
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: is I'm coming into the game and he didn't really
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: have his slider last night. That's why I threw five
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: straight fastballs to Dalton Rushing and the fifth one right
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: down the middle for some reason, that got singled and
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: started that inning and created all of that tension. But
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: he didn't even have his best stuff last night, but
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: that was his best. It was his hardest fastball, and
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: you could tell like there was just a different focus
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: to him and everybody else. And I don't think I'm
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: imagining it. I think something clicked. I think the the
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: the losing three out of four to Texas hit home
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: and whoever was the person that delivered the speech, it
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: got through to them for one night, whether or not
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: they will be able to repeat that for the next night,
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: because that takes energy. It takes energy to be tunnel vision.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: All that matters. Nothing matters, not the gestures, not the
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: bat flips, not the fun, not the goofing off with
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: the other team, not the grab assing in the clubhouse.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: All that matters is winning. And you've done it one
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: way all season long, and you dug yourself a whole
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: three games under five hundred, one hundred and six games
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: into the year, and you should be embarrassed because you're
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: so much more talented than that.
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: And you showed it last night.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: And whatever happened, whatever soaked in last night, for at
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: least one game, that was a different effort, that was
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: a different team last night. And it was great to see.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: And now we need to see it for the next
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: sixty games, sixty such games the rest of the way, because,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: by the way, you didn't gain any ground on anybody.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: Last night Rangers won Astros one twins or ahead of
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: you in the division. They won again. Uh, so you didn't.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: You didn't gain anything. The only thing that you gained
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: is maybe, Oh, that's what we're capable of playing. That's
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: how we're that's how good we are. We can go
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: toe to toe with the best lineup in Major League
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Baseball on any given night, and they will have, in theory,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: a pitching advantage tonight. Uh, and they they will have
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: a pitching advantage in Game three of this series. Now,
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: they're never gonna have a lineup advantage against the Dodgers.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: That's never going to happen. But pitching can win. And
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: if we get sharp performances out of Hancock and Miller.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not trying to get greedy here. I
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: want to see three focused efforts like that and if
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: we give that we're gonna win two out of these three,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: and that can be season changing. That can sound off
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: bells of like, oh my gosh, we we all most
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: forgot how good we could be and now now we know.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: So that was great, loved it. Great game last night,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: and not counting on anything, but I hope it is
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: the start to this team playing like we all know
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: that they're capable of playing. Yeah.
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: I think it is the epitome of Okay, you did it. Now,
• 18:15
  Speaker 5: it's one game at a time. Focus on today and
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: just do that, exactly what you've been saying.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: Focus. Just focus on the next game.
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: That's it, and then after tonight you will focus on
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: the next game. Don't think about the three games you've
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: got to overcome, don't think about what you could do
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: at the end of September. Just think about the game
• 18:33
  Speaker 5: you've got ahead of you tonight and focus on that,
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: and it shouldn't be overwhelming.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: It's a cliche, but there are reasons for cliches, like
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: it is one pitch at a time. Yeah, that is
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: how you have to play sports at the highest level
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: against the best competition out there. And so can't wait.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: I can't wait. For tonight. All right, let's find out
• 18:51

• 19:28
  Speaker 1: last night seven to six. Haven't even mentioned dom Canzone,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: who was the star of the game, but we'll get
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: into that with Mariners morning after he homered twice celebrated
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: both of them. The Mariners hit five home runs against
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: Dodgers pitching last night and went at seven to six.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Mariners notes. Rob Resnider, activated last night from the injury list,
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: had two extra base hits, including a key two run
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: homer off the foul pole in the game. Brendan Donnov
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: and we were hearing was going to there was going
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: to be a move we were all assuming to the Dodger. No,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: it was just a Tacoma So he, I guess is advancing.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: But still know Brendan Donovan on this roster, and now,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: according to many reports, maybe he's in a race to
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: get to the big league club with Michael Arroyo, who's
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: hitting three twenty four at Tacoma, one of the top
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: prospects in the organization, a right handed hitter, by the way,
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: and those are gold right now in the sport. And
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: so Michael Arroyo might beat Brendan Donovan to the Mariners
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: twenty six man roster. There's a chance he could be
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: activated here in the next couple of days. We shall see.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Trade deadline is five days away. Last night's win goes
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: a long way toward convincing Jerry and Justin to make
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: that trade. But it's getting trickier by the moment, and
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: we're going to talk more about that a little bit
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: later on in the show. A day off from training camp,
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: but it does to me we won't check in with
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Greg Bell his analysis, well not his analysis, his observations
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: from yesterday's day four training camp. He'll join us at
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: seven oh five, and as I mentioned, h will be
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: with us from eight to ten. Denzel Ward, cornerback for
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: the Browns, signed a new contract yesterday. Well, I wonder
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: how that will affect Devin Witherspoon's negotiation. Jalen Carter signed
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: a new contract with the Philadelphia Eagles. Probably a set
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: the bar for defensive tackles if you're thinking about Byron
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: Murphy's future. And Kirk Cousins yesterday was named QB one
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: already by the Las Vegas Raiders. Kyle Shanahan's actual story
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: emerged yesterday. We'll have to spend some time on this.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: I don't have time to get into it now, but
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: he took the blame for the accident and said that
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: the reports were wrong. So I don't know what led
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: to that. He took the blame. Fever beat the storm
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: last night, and news on the broadcasting front here in town,
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: which we'll talk about later this hour. At least Woodward
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: the new voice of college football for the Washington Huskies,
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: and Eddie Olcik is no longer going to be with
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: us and our family which is set. So some good
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: news and some bad news on that front, But coming
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: up next Marin this morning, after we'll talk about dom
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: he was in that Now Sports Radio ninety three point
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: three kJ R FM. I actually had a waitress who
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: waited on me for breakfast the other day, and she
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: poured my coffee with her left hand and handed me
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: the bill with the right. And I'm like, I could
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: never do that.
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: Your coffee would be all over you.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: And yet drummers, yeah.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: Drummers would pour your coffee, hand you a bill and
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: give you something that they have resting on their head.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: You're outliers, though, drummers, because we men are really not
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: multi capable.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: That's fair.
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so, and I'm at the far end on the
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: other end of you, drummers professional, I would.
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: Say, you've got a lot of strengths, multitasking not one.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: That's so, That's okay.
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: We all have to have our weaknesses and we have
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: to acknowledge them. That's the only way we grow.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I mean, I've been
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: evaluated in there like it's just you're not focused. And
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: here I am blaming the Mariners for lack of focus.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: You only want to focus, you could. You're great at
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: focusing on the things you like to talk, talk about
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: or do, but you're terrible at focusing on things you
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: don't want to do. That's what it is.
• 23:17
  Speaker 5: But see so you can get the America is a
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: hard time because you should want to focus on baseball.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: I can recognize, yep, when others can't focus. All right, well,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: let's get into it. It's Mariner's Morning After Time, our
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Mariners a post game show. We have a victory to
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: celebrate here today. As the MS went into Los Angeles
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: coming off three or four losses to the Texas Rangers
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: and Man, as we talked about in the first segment,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: I just saw a new focus on this team, whether
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: or not at last. I'm not here to promise that
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: I don't count on anything.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: Just commenting on what we saw last night, but that.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Team, to me look locked in like they haven't been
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: locked in all season long. They hit five home runs
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: against Dodge You're pitching, and they did throw an All Star.
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: Justin Robleski made the All Star team, even though he's
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: very little known in baseball beyond baseball circles. I should say,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: but Julio homer Cal homered, Refsnyder homered, But the two
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: big home runs came from the same dude. Dom can
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: Zone comes to the plate after the Dodgers had taken
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: we were tied at five. It's the eighth inning. Can
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: Zone had already homered once to tie up the game.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: And what does he do in the eighth magic time
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: drilled out to center? Does he have another?
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: Dob can zoned his second home run tonight inside Dodgers Stadium.
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: It's another against a lefty and the Mariners ta get
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: seven five lead. An incredible performance.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Man, I gotta give Andrews credit on this one. He
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: was telling me long before, long before they actually made
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: the move. He should be playing every day. Oh man,
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: I mean you want to talk about a game saving,
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: season saving change. Dom Canzone being introduced as an everyday
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: player and then promoted all the way to the three
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: hole whether we face a righty or a lefty. And man,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: is he stepping up? I mean he he looks like
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: a star. He looks like a star. A star is
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: born on the Mariners this year, and I certainly didn't
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: see it coming.
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he's leading the spicy meatballs and helping us a lot,
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: and I appreciate it because I need it. I need
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: some help with our Mariners home run teams.
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we don't track it, I know.
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: But I am yeah, you okay, Well he's leading, he's
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: helping the spicy.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: Meatballs out a lot.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: You take great pride in that, that hollow victory of
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: a bit we had to retire fortly fine, I'm.
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: Still gonna just you know what, every time him and
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: Randy hit or run, I think.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: We'll keep an eye on it. We'll keep an eye
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: on it. Can Zone now with seventeen sixteen no eighteen
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: eighteen home runs on the year, with the two home
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: runs last night, and the Mariners do hold on seventh
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: to six, but Man did get wild and wooly in
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: the seventh inning, Andres Munoz comes in after Gabe Spier
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: got the job done in the sixth, and then Jose
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Ferrer got the job done in the seventh, and Bizardo
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: got the job done in the eighth. And for those
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: maybe keeping tracks since this has been a huge topic,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: maybe bigger topic than people wanted to hear on the show. Yeah,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: I if anything, I wasn't sure you should have stuck
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: with Castillo in the fifth. I wasn't sure if one
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: of our beyond the big four relievers, I don't know,
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: if I maybe I felt better about somebody else pitching
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: the fifth other than Castillo, but they stuck with Castillo
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: through the fifth inning. Of course, he gave up a run, yes,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: and then Max Muncy and then there in the from
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: the sixth on, yes, spire for rare Bizardo Munos. That's
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: how I would have played it out, So don't have
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: any criticisms there for Dan and Munjos. In that seventh inning,
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: gives up the leadoff single just through a speaking of
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: spicy meatballs, just through a meatball over the middle of
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: the plate. Up two to two on their nine hitter,
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: Dalton rushing and then Show hey, who just put on
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: a show last night, finds the gap.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: It's like he's a good baseball player or something.
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: I just didn't think that was gonna get to the gap.
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: I'd kind of like to see that over again as
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: to how that got to the gap. Then Roeblaze fumbles
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: the ball after he had just been brought in as
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: a defensive replacement. O'tani ends up at third on the play,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: and we'll talk more about this later. A healthy show
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Aotan scores on that ground ball by Freddie Freeman. That's
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: another part about Show Aotoni. He's also one of the
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: fastest human beings in baseball, and so that chopper by
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Freddie Freeman a healthy show. Aotani breaks for home and
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Naylor does not get him out. But he's got a
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: knee injury. They're nursing it, they're babying him, they're not
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: letting him pitch right now because of it, and so
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: he did not go. He did not go from third.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Otherwise we got a tie ball game and we might
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: be heading into extra innings. And then Munnos just bears
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: down and gets out of it without further damage and
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: the Mariners win by a final score of seven to six.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: Great victory last night for the team. Here is Dan
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Wilson after the game. Yeah, what a ball game tonight.
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: You know, I thought our guys played their hearts out
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: tonight and gave everything. And you know, anytime you go
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: against that team, you know you got to really bring it,
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: and they brought it tonight. You know, Louis, I thought
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: battled and that's a tough lineup. They didn't miss a
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: lot of pitches today and and we're able to put
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: some runs on them, but our guys kept answering back
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: throughout and that was huge being able to you know.
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: Continued to answer back.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: Stay in the game, turned it over to the bullpen,
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: who I thought through the ball extremely well, you know,
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: to get through there, especially in that late innings, you know,
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: to to go score with us through there, give the
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: ball to Moody who also threw the ball well, you know,
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: and to get it, you know, a runner at third
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: base there with with nobody out, and to be able
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: to shut that any down, that's huge, and uh, you know,
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: just an outstanding job by by the staff. And and
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: then you know offensively, you know, a lot of a
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: lot of great things today. Five homers, you know, chance
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: to to drive the ball all the ballpark here, Raft
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: coming back and getting one off the follow poll, Julio cal.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Don with the with the with the two. You know,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: just huge.
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: Lifts in those moments. And you know, it was a
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: great win tonight, one one to build on and and
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: come back tomorrow and do it again.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Dan Wilson after the game, just quickly rifling through a
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: few things. I thought Julio was fantastic last night. It
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: wasn't just Dom Canzone. I thought he was fantastic defensively
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: on the bases, his approaches last night. So I thought
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Julio played one of his best games in a while.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was water to a man crawling across
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: the desert to see Rob Rethschneider contribute as well as
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: he did last night. I will say Castillo did battle man.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: It could have gotten a lot worse because he threw
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: a lot of really good pitches with a lot of
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: guys on base last night. Otherwise, maybe the Dodgers run
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: away with this thing, because I don't think that he
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: was all together sharp last night, and that Dodgers lineup
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: is terrifying. And then yes, the bullpen did a terrific job.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: We do have four really good relievers, by the way,
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: and when they're used properly, that takes you a long
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: way in a baseball season. And just so we're clear,
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: they're all available again tonight. Hey, yep, we're in the
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: second half of the season. We got to get a
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: rhythm going. All of those got None of them pitched
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: on Monday afternoon, then they only pitched an inning last night.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: They are all available tonight. Munos is the only one
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: that would be possibly a question mark because he threw
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: twenty nine pitches last night. He really had to work
• 31:23

• 35:23
  Speaker 1: start with the sad news and then we'll finish on
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: a positive note. Sad news is the daddy Old Check
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: is leaving the Crack and family. And man, I mean,
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: what a gift he was for us that somebody of
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: that stature, somebody that NBC would choose for the Olympics,
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: and we got him here for our first few seasons
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: of Crack and Hockey. He was so fun and informative
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: and educating to listen to and then to turn it
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: turns out he was just such a great guy. Everybody
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: loves the man and so for him to be a
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: part of the start of Crack and history was fantastic.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: But he's decided to move on, I know.
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: And my immediate thought was, he's so great for our
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: crack and broadcast.
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: Will he still come on to talk pucks and ponies.
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: I bet he will, because I feel like, now that's
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: like a thing, a thing, and we have to have
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: him on. But just I mean a kind person and
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: a great broadcaster. I mean, and it seems like just
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: willing to give his time and his energy and loves hockey,
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: loves to talk about it, and makes you feel like
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: you've been friends with him for a long time.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: That we're really fortunate having to have Everett, and then
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: we at Dave, and then the Dave handoff to Al.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think our radio broadcast is just sensational,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: and then our television broadcast, I mean, you had two
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: of the best in the industry. We have Foresland and
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: Old Chick during games, well most of the games, yeah,
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: And I mean, and then Ian is fantastic at play
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: by play when he fills in for John or Everett.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: We got some great hockey broadcas, we really do. And
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: it's been great to be on the ground floor of
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: this organization to see it kind of come together U
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: and then to have that many good broadcasters to kind of,
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: you know, elevate our game as hockey fans. Fantastic, So
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: we're a miss Edzo. We get to call him Edzo.
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: We asked him, Yeah, we're besties.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure you can as listeners. No she didn't

• 37:45
  Speaker 1: intimately involved with U dub athletics and has been for years.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: She does have some chops in the play by play
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: world out there, but now she's being given the big job.
