- 2:11Speaker 5: You forget about those taxes, and all of a sudden
- 2:13Speaker 5: you're like, wait a second, into a turbo tax. Yeah, sweet,
- 2:16Speaker 5: were a little bit removed from them sponsoring all of
- 2:18Speaker 5: the playoff games in the NFL, so it might hit
- 2:21Speaker 5: the back burner, but yeah, good time to get into it.
- 2:23Speaker 8: And uh hey, this is no joke.
- 2:25Speaker 5: We are on to April.
- 2:26Speaker 2: There we go, no joke. I like that, Billy.
- 2:28Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:28Speaker 2: The amount of the amount of reels I'm watching these
- 2:31Speaker 2: days with influencers with paid partnerships for TurboTax and into
- 2:34Speaker 2: it just casually. You know, I'm sitting around here, look
- 2:37Speaker 2: at my thing. I need to do my turbotaxt those reels.
- 2:39Speaker 8: Oh my gosh.
- 2:40Speaker 2: This just so funny how these paid partners ships are working.
- 2:44Speaker 8: Is it funny because you don't have one problem? You
- 2:48Speaker 8: know what, that's fine.
- 2:48Speaker 2: You know what, I guess these these people that do
- 2:51Speaker 2: reels are more important anybody else. And it is TurboTax
- 2:54Speaker 2: have unless you found for the big e the extension,
- 2:56Speaker 2: you know what I mean, that's the other big key
- 2:58Speaker 2: big yeah.
- 2:59Speaker 5: Look for sure, Yeah, no doubt, because everybody talked about
- 3:02Speaker 5: the big taxa. The only extension I was worried about
- 3:06Speaker 5: getting was in any single school assignment. True, the taxes
- 3:09Speaker 5: I'll take care of.
- 3:10Speaker 3: Listen.
- 3:10Speaker 8: I like the fact that we're all rock and Brewers
- 3:12Speaker 8: hoodies here this morning.
- 3:13Speaker 5: We're feeling it. We're feeling Come see what's brewing.
- 3:16Speaker 8: The Big Wu is.
- 3:17Speaker 9: Back, and uh, the Brewers overcame quite a bit of
- 3:22Speaker 9: bumps in the road last night, some some self inflicted,
- 3:26Speaker 9: some umpire inflicted. Wow, so called that one yesterday, weird
- 3:31Speaker 9: night at the old Ballpark. But Big WU is the story.
- 3:34Speaker 9: Brandon woodruff Man that that stat that the Brewers came
- 3:37Speaker 9: up with that in his last U what is it?
- 3:40Speaker 9: Twenty five starts at amfan Field. He's fifteen and one
- 3:43Speaker 9: with a two to two o e er and the
- 3:45Speaker 9: Brewers are twenty two and three in those games. Oh,
- 3:48Speaker 9: just keep him around, just to pitch it home.
- 3:50Speaker 5: No hitting him and Freddy Peralta last year were absolute
- 3:52Speaker 5: nails and it felt like they were just winning every.
- 3:54Speaker 9: So, what he comes out and he wanted to pitch
- 3:57Speaker 9: in the big leagues, not start and you know, he
- 3:59Speaker 9: said he did want to waste his bullets in Nashville,
- 4:03Speaker 9: and well Nashville had a pretty good start last night
- 4:06Speaker 9: of their own.
- 4:06Speaker 5: Good wake up, yeah, Don Anderson.
- 4:08Speaker 9: But they what he comes out and he's like, you know,
- 4:11Speaker 9: looks pedestrian ninety two ninety three, and then the velocity
- 4:15Speaker 9: ticked up, but he's becoming he's he's the pitcher now,
- 4:20Speaker 9: he's the old guy who relies on movement.
- 4:23Speaker 5: He is the the Greg Maddox of the Burwer staff.
- 4:26Speaker 5: Last year you had no clue how it was going
- 4:28Speaker 5: to play, and then you saw him start to understand
- 4:31Speaker 5: that he was going to have to pitch right around
- 4:32Speaker 5: that ninety two ninety three, and then yesterday when the
- 4:35Speaker 5: second cat puts the one into the bullpen drew it
- 4:37Speaker 5: was the right.
- 4:39Speaker 8: Maybe I do have to reach back just to tick more.
- 4:41Speaker 5: Maybe I'm gonna have to live a little bit more
- 4:43Speaker 5: onto the edges. But it is an impressive adjustment for
- 4:46Speaker 5: a guy that was just such a flamethrower for so
- 4:48Speaker 5: long in his career to be able to make Yeah,
- 4:50Speaker 5: it's like.
- 4:51Speaker 2: He's like astros Andy Pettitt, or maybe like Yankees Randy Johnson,
- 4:55Speaker 2: Like he can still pitch really well, just not at
- 4:58Speaker 2: the peak velocity prime of his and the injuries, but
- 5:01Speaker 2: still doing his thing. After he got the customary first
- 5:04Speaker 2: inning home run of the way, which is not the
- 5:05Speaker 2: Brewers tradition, just the spot, I feel.
- 5:07Speaker 8: Like that, Yeah that's coming, Like, uh, it's feature go
- 5:10Speaker 8: for first inning time.
- 5:11Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel like it's like, all right, well, we're
- 5:13Speaker 2: just gonna spot you the one. So that's how that
- 5:16Speaker 2: that that's how we really gets started. That's just the
- 5:18Speaker 2: way it goes. So I don't know, it's like it's
- 5:21Speaker 2: like it's like starting to show off at five am
- 5:23Speaker 2: and making like, you know, you make a customary bad joke,
- 5:25Speaker 2: but don't hear it's one of those deals. So why not?
- 5:29Speaker 5: But workshopping material. You know, Brant.
- 5:36Speaker 9: Conan hosted the Oscars and he spent like, you know,
- 5:38Speaker 9: seventy nights in front of the brick wall in a
- 5:40Speaker 9: small club, workshopping the material.
- 5:43Speaker 8: Experimental.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's been working for the brewers, or you know,
- 5:46Speaker 2: now four and one rolling rolling along.
- 5:49Speaker 9: Brewers are rolling along, and if they win today, they
- 5:52Speaker 9: beat the race today, win their second series, they'll leave
- 5:54Speaker 9: their opening week and we're just we're on to April.
- 5:58Speaker 9: But baseball's a week aldol ready, isn't it weird? But
- 6:00Speaker 9: they would be five and one. That's how you defend
- 6:01Speaker 9: the division titles. Come out and five and one at home,
- 6:04Speaker 9: you command the home field and like get greedy.
- 6:06Speaker 5: Win today.
- 6:07Speaker 9: Of course today you've got the doubly tough opponent of
- 6:12Speaker 9: your facing the rays, we're a good outfit, and Cebe
- 6:15Speaker 9: Buckner at home plate.
- 6:16Speaker 5: Yeah, and the levering call and Rock being alongside for
- 6:21Speaker 5: the ride on Brewers TV last night was a hilariousness
- 6:25Speaker 5: for that minute and a half edition of everybody getting
- 6:29Speaker 5: a taste of Cebee Buckner and then also Jeff just
- 6:32Speaker 5: as boldly as you can say, and I'm sure excited
- 6:35Speaker 5: for him to be behind the plate tomorrow.
- 6:38Speaker 9: Well, everybody, when when we saw the rotation, you did
- 6:41Speaker 9: the math and I saw him at second base, I'm like,
- 6:43Speaker 9: oh man, he's got the dish out the.
- 6:45Speaker 8: Forty five seconds.
- 6:46Speaker 9: So on the bright side, in the wake of last night,
- 6:50Speaker 9: like you can joke, the joke has been, Oh, Empires
- 6:52Speaker 9: aren't accountable.
- 6:53Speaker 8: They are.
- 6:54Speaker 9: They have their supervisors and they get their memos just
- 6:56Speaker 9: like everybody else. You know, hey, we need to do
- 6:58Speaker 9: a better job on the Penske file alarm and you
- 7:00Speaker 9: didn't really do a good job there.
- 7:02Speaker 8: They get that too.
- 7:03Speaker 9: They get their feedback, obviously, they get instant feedback now
- 7:05Speaker 9: with the ABS very much. They've been getting pitch tracked
- 7:08Speaker 9: for several years behind the plate and umpire has become standardized.
- 7:13Speaker 9: It used to be like, well, this is Joe Brinkman's
- 7:15Speaker 9: strike zone, and this is Ed Montague strikes on Bruce
- 7:18Speaker 9: breming strike zone. Like now it's just the strike zone, right,
- 7:21Speaker 9: and they've kind of like they've condensed it. But Seebee Buckner,
- 7:24Speaker 9: like today, in the wake of last night and last week,
- 7:28Speaker 9: I mean, we might be seeing his last game.
- 7:29Speaker 8: Could be history today.
- 7:30Speaker 9: You might have to go buy a ticket just to
- 7:32Speaker 9: see history because it could be Sebee Buckner's last stan.
- 7:36Speaker 8: Dude, wouldn't you want to retire?
- 7:38Speaker 9: He's talked about how he doesn't like the ABS, and yeah,
- 7:43Speaker 9: just retire.
- 7:44Speaker 8: That's the part that I've never understood.
- 7:46Speaker 5: Drew like then to make everybody feel like the bad
- 7:49Speaker 5: person for enjoying the fact that what we've all witnessed
- 7:52Speaker 5: over the last fifteen years is now being brought to light.
- 7:55Speaker 8: Hey man, you had a great run.
- 7:57Speaker 5: Just enjoy it. Go out and hit some golf balls
- 8:00Speaker 5: and enjoy your Tuesday afternoon. Maybe use that. Do they
- 8:03Speaker 5: get gold cards? He's got ten years of service. Yeah,
- 8:07Speaker 5: that's a good question.
- 8:07Speaker 6: He might.
- 8:08Speaker 5: He might have a gold card. Going going be the
- 8:10Speaker 5: umpire in Section one eighteen every single night if you
- 8:13Speaker 5: really want to. But just enjoy the fact that you
- 8:16Speaker 5: can sit back and lounge on it because they've made
- 8:19Speaker 5: enough money. Now let's go and get some guys in
- 8:21Speaker 5: here with a with a better establishment of eyes.
- 8:22Speaker 2: You know, it's a tough thing because like it feels
- 8:25Speaker 2: like he's now because Angel Hernandez is gone. When heed
- 8:27Speaker 2: one guy like that, So now that he's gone, he's
- 8:30Speaker 2: kind of taking that that mantle. And before he did,
- 8:33Speaker 2: people weren't talking about Cebee Buckenor's performance as much. I
- 8:36Speaker 2: mean that at some point were the people that knew right,
- 8:38Speaker 2: but but everyone, like, you know, I feel like the
- 8:40Speaker 2: Angel Hernandaz was the big lightning rod and then it's
- 8:42Speaker 2: like he's gone. Now everyone can use Cebe Buckner as
- 8:45Speaker 2: their playtoy to kick around, you know, And that's just
- 8:47Speaker 2: the way it is. But I don't imagine that's a
- 8:49Speaker 2: pretty tough job to give up. And you know, these
- 8:51Speaker 2: guys are stubborn billy They don't think they're doing anything wrong.
- 8:53Speaker 2: He thinks he's a great fight. He probably thinks he's
- 8:55Speaker 2: a great umpire.
- 8:56Speaker 5: You know.
- 8:57Speaker 9: The playing question was Jake Bauers to the hole towards
- 9:01Speaker 9: second base, kid dives, ricochets, throws wildly and Jake Bowers
- 9:06Speaker 9: is safe.
- 9:06Speaker 8: There was no error. It was a hit, and you know,
- 9:10Speaker 8: and everybod.
- 9:11Speaker 9: We're going on about our business and Cebe Buckner calls
- 9:13Speaker 9: him out for missing first base, and you watch the
- 9:17Speaker 9: replay and he stepped in the middle of first base
- 9:20Speaker 9: and Cebe Buckner as Bowers has his foot, there's a
- 9:23Speaker 9: still shot has his foot on the middle of the base,
- 9:26Speaker 9: and the first basement's looking at the ball sailing dribbling
- 9:29Speaker 9: towards home plate in between home plate and the dugout.
- 9:33Speaker 9: Buckner's looking at home plate. He's not his eyes are
- 9:35Speaker 9: not at much close Jake Bowers's feet. And the the
- 9:40Speaker 9: most ridiculous replay of I mean over it had to
- 9:44Speaker 9: be overturned, but it was the most ridiculous call that
- 9:46Speaker 9: he invented.
- 9:47Speaker 5: It was. But the best part was as like, because
- 9:49Speaker 5: the the raised player walks over and I see him
- 9:53Speaker 5: start some kind of situation like I thought he was
- 9:56Speaker 5: trying to say, Bowers turned towards second base, and that's
- 10:00Speaker 5: why he's turned. Why that's why he's tagging him. Uh,
- 10:02Speaker 5: And then when it's he's actually not stepping on the
- 10:05Speaker 5: base and drew to your point, he stepped right into
- 10:07Speaker 5: the middle of the base where they actually tell you
- 10:09Speaker 5: not to press because you might roll an ankle because
- 10:12Speaker 5: of how exactly square into the center you are. But
- 10:16Speaker 5: for everybody to be able to see where his eyes
- 10:19Speaker 5: go as Bowers gets two to three steps away, All right, sweet,
- 10:23Speaker 5: whoall that? Paul went all the way back to the backstop. Hey,
- 10:27Speaker 5: you didn't touch that, You're out?
- 10:29Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 10:30Speaker 5: Kevin Cash and Pat Murphy being able to look eyes
- 10:33Speaker 5: Kevin Cash legal would be.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Like, wait, did that just happen the Major League? I
- 10:38Speaker 2: don't know, Pat, he called it, So I'm gonna have
- 10:41Speaker 2: to go through the process. And then you ask yourself,
- 10:43Speaker 2: like for a call that obvious that he wasn't looking
- 10:47Speaker 2: at and a call that irregular to first, why is
- 10:50Speaker 2: he calling that? What makes him want to call that? Like,
- 10:52Speaker 2: what makes him think he should call that? And then
- 10:54Speaker 2: you start getting into the real pop psychology of what's
- 10:56Speaker 2: happening with umpires, and you wonder, like, are they just
- 10:59Speaker 2: trying to rebel against the dwindling power? They have the
- 11:03Speaker 2: stubbornness of it and say I'm gonna make this call
- 11:05Speaker 2: because that's what I.
- 11:05Speaker 8: Can still do.
- 11:07Speaker 2: These are the roads I go down, you know when
- 11:10Speaker 2: I see my daughter strapped in the high chair, knowing
- 11:12Speaker 2: she has limited power, not a move, so she's gonna
- 11:14Speaker 2: start dropping her food because that's the one power she has.
- 11:16Speaker 2: I'm like, well, maybe Cebe Buckner just feels like he's
- 11:19Speaker 2: gonna have to start making some wild calls because he
- 11:22Speaker 2: wants to have some powers still over the game.
- 11:24Speaker 6: C B.
- 11:24Speaker 9: Buckner right now exists to feed material to John Boy Media.
- 11:28Speaker 8: And I think I think he might be on the page.
- 11:30Speaker 5: He's got to be.
- 11:32Speaker 9: It was the last time he was behind the plate
- 11:34Speaker 9: with his crew was Monday night, Pirates Reds mm hm.
- 11:39Speaker 9: The Reds beat the Pirates two to nothing, and the
- 11:43Speaker 9: Reds challenged five of his calls successfully the ABS system,
- 11:48Speaker 9: and there were a couple more that were like on
- 11:51Speaker 9: replay that weren't challenged, that were egregious. So there were
- 11:54Speaker 9: about ten calls that were bad, which is horrific. Like
- 11:58Speaker 9: we talk about how good the umpires are generally, Yeah,
- 12:01Speaker 9: and like these you're there, you're looking at micrometers. It's
- 12:03Speaker 9: a little bit like the NFL, like super super slow motion.
- 12:05Speaker 9: It looks like you can see the blade of grass
- 12:08Speaker 9: move or you can see, you know, the finger wiggle.
- 12:11Speaker 5: I have the best understanding of the strikes on with
- 12:12Speaker 5: that score box. Yeah yeah, and so it's it's incredible,
- 12:18Speaker 5: but it is what it is. And now now there
- 12:20Speaker 5: are cries with the ABS. Now there are people like
- 12:23Speaker 5: why do we even let the umpires call anything? Like,
- 12:25Speaker 5: just let the ABS call it, you see, instant and
- 12:28Speaker 5: as strange as it might be, because I'm always get
- 12:30Speaker 5: the call right, guy, like, let's make sure we get
- 12:33Speaker 5: every single call right, I actually appreciate the fact that
- 12:36Speaker 5: there's some strategy to it.
- 12:37Speaker 8: Now, I might go three strikes in, you're out.
- 12:39Speaker 5: Yeah, I might give an additional ABS challenge just so
- 12:42Speaker 5: Bryce Terraang realizes that he can use one. Because I
- 12:44Speaker 5: think every single game, damn near every at bad, he's
- 12:47Speaker 5: had one call that I probably would have drived a challenge,
- 12:50Speaker 5: and he just gives a little side I have. I'm
- 12:52Speaker 5: pretty sure you missed that one, Blue, but you have
- 12:55Speaker 5: the ability to do it. I don't know that the
- 12:58Speaker 5: pacing would be all that bad if you just had
- 13:01Speaker 5: what the NFL is apparently gonna get rolling here, which
- 13:04Speaker 5: is somebody up top saying, hey, strike, ball strike. And
- 13:09Speaker 5: now the mistrust in all games with as much legal
- 13:13Speaker 5: wagering as there is going on.
- 13:14Speaker 8: I as just gonna soak some flames.
- 13:16Speaker 5: If somebody else is calling the game from reading it
- 13:20Speaker 5: off the television like we all are, however, it would
- 13:23Speaker 5: be the closest to getting it right every single time.
- 13:27Speaker 5: But I think this is the perfect blend where you
- 13:30Speaker 5: do have umpires like Buckner being able to be as
- 13:34Speaker 5: annoyed as he was while Suarez was dunking on him,
- 13:37Speaker 5: but also realizing, like you're you're ten calls in a game.
- 13:41Speaker 5: I'm ten calls. There's what two hundred and fifty pitches.
- 13:44Speaker 5: That's pretty good. Yeah, but if you slice in that,
- 13:47Speaker 5: probably half of the ball calls are pretty clear that
- 13:50Speaker 5: the ones that are right down the middle. I'm not
- 13:52Speaker 5: gonna give him all that much credit for the other
- 13:54Speaker 5: half of the balls that are swung at. There's probably
- 13:56Speaker 5: fifty calls that are somewhat on the fringe every single night. Yeah,
- 14:01Speaker 5: And when we're swinging at seventy sixty percent clips, if
- 14:05Speaker 5: they say there's thirty and you're missing tent of them,
- 14:07Speaker 5: that's gonna be a tough number for you to back up.
- 14:08Speaker 5: It is.
- 14:09Speaker 2: And the thing is, these are major leagu umpires, so
- 14:11Speaker 2: this is the top of your profession, so I do
- 14:12Speaker 2: expect him to be better than just any other guy. Now,
- 14:16Speaker 2: of course, they're all still humans, but you have to
- 14:18Speaker 2: wonder if deep down some guys know they're not as
- 14:20Speaker 2: good at their job as the others and they want
- 14:22Speaker 2: to save their legacy, and like you said, why not
- 14:24Speaker 2: just retire. I mean I think Phil Cuzy were tired
- 14:27Speaker 2: for that reason. Maybe one of them. I mean, when
- 14:29Speaker 2: it feels like a supervisor. Yeah, and Phil cuz you
- 14:31Speaker 2: were tired. And maybe he was like, you know what,
- 14:32Speaker 2: I don't want to get embarrassed. Maybe he wasn't. Maybe
- 14:35Speaker 2: he just said, hey, you know what, I'm ready to go,
- 14:37Speaker 2: but this new system's coming in, this is a good
- 14:39Speaker 2: time to get out. I don't need the Emperor to
- 14:41Speaker 2: have no clothes and I have everyone come up and
- 14:43Speaker 2: see me, Miss Calls and say, your legacy is an
- 14:45Speaker 2: umpire is terrible. Although I don't know how much that
- 14:47Speaker 2: matters to some of these guys either. I think we
- 14:49Speaker 2: overrate that aspect so much. Fire legacy with us, well,
- 14:53Speaker 2: there's a.
- 14:54Speaker 9: Lot of jobs are included where you kind of have
- 14:57Speaker 9: to ignore the noise. And absolutely, I guess the foot
- 15:01Speaker 9: we suck. Yeah, you know, it's like, okay, and the
- 15:03Speaker 9: people that aren't fans, it's just.
- 15:05Speaker 8: There's part of that.
- 15:06Speaker 2: But C. B.
- 15:07Speaker 9: Buckner Earth's play what's the Potawatami sportsbook over under on
- 15:11Speaker 9: ejections today?
- 15:12Speaker 5: Just out of curiosity, I'm gonna I think it's set
- 15:15Speaker 5: at one and a half for the possibility that a
- 15:18Speaker 5: pitcher and manager getting rung.
- 15:20Speaker 8: Which manager of the year is gonna get run?
- 15:23Speaker 5: Mcevin Casher, I think the craziest number out of twenty
- 15:27Speaker 5: twenty five, right, ninety seven wins most of franchise history.
- 15:31Speaker 5: Fourteen game winning streak, two different double digit win streaks.
- 15:34Speaker 5: I don't believe Urf got ejected last year, which is
- 15:37Speaker 5: kind of crazy. He went from like seven to eight
- 15:39Speaker 5: ejections to zero. So I am Drew actually excited to
- 15:42Speaker 5: see him get run one of these games. And it
- 15:45Speaker 5: is funny to like, Okay, that happened last night.
- 15:48Speaker 2: It's what was the old thing about when you make
- 15:50Speaker 2: a great play in the field, you're always the first
- 15:52Speaker 2: one up to bet. It's like it just happened to
- 15:54Speaker 2: have that controversy. And of course he's behind the plate
- 15:57Speaker 2: today and he's gonna be why it's like a hawk
- 16:00Speaker 2: by everybody. Everyone will wait for something crazy to happen
- 16:03Speaker 2: for this. It also reminds me that I think personally
- 16:06Speaker 2: this proves this is the best system going, because like,
- 16:09Speaker 2: it still makes I tweet this last night, It still
- 16:11Speaker 2: makes life more interesting and the game absolutely when these
- 16:14Speaker 2: things happened, but at least now we have a chance
- 16:16Speaker 2: to still enjoy it and still get justice on the call,
- 16:19Speaker 2: which was the annoying part earlier with Angel Hernandez.
- 16:22Speaker 9: This is the equivalent and you were saying it, Billy, like,
- 16:26Speaker 9: when you're sitting there and it's two hundred pitches, you're
- 16:28Speaker 9: gonna miss one, right, You're having right, sure? And sometimes
- 16:31Speaker 9: when a guy will call a pitch right down the
- 16:33Speaker 9: middle absolutely like split the heart of the plate, and
- 16:37Speaker 9: they'll call it a ball, and you just go, you know, oh,
- 16:40Speaker 9: that was That's awful. Isn't this one worse? Like if
- 16:43Speaker 9: this isn't a misinterpretation, this is a by far conjuring.
- 16:47Speaker 9: Oh totally conjured this call in your brain when you
- 16:50Speaker 9: didn't see it, it didn't happen.
- 16:52Speaker 8: And when he was arguably looking at front row, Aimy.
- 16:55Speaker 9: Yeah, you weren't looking in the direction of the play,
- 16:57Speaker 9: and you invented this call, which makes it, I think,
- 17:00Speaker 9: by degrees worse than oh I miss it. And there
- 17:03Speaker 9: are times like sometimes you'll see a guy miss a
- 17:05Speaker 9: call like that and nobody really reacts, and that's because
- 17:09Speaker 9: the empire under his breath goes, sorry, boys, I'm bad,
- 17:11Speaker 9: I got my bad.
- 17:13Speaker 5: I missed that one.
- 17:13Speaker 9: And he says it to the catcher, and then the
- 17:15Speaker 9: catcher like, you know, a fine, all right, not that
- 17:18Speaker 9: big a deal. It's too out nobody on and it
- 17:20Speaker 9: was it's you know, it's a one to two count.
- 17:23Speaker 1: Sorry.
- 17:23Speaker 9: Yeah, so it's like okay, you know. But in this
- 17:26Speaker 9: case though, especially like Bowers, like what I missed the bank?
- 17:30Speaker 9: And again everybody initially you thought, did he think he
- 17:33Speaker 9: turned because he could have tried to stick to that too,
- 17:36Speaker 9: like oh he made a move towards second when no,
- 17:38Speaker 9: he didn't, yeah for sure. And so yeah, when it's
- 17:42Speaker 9: just weird that they were appealing that kind of that
- 17:44Speaker 9: they were trying to tag him because well, and that.
- 17:47Speaker 5: Was the thing Drew.
- 17:47Speaker 8: It felt like to me every sideline in the NFL saying.
- 17:51Speaker 5: Dude, are you serious? He grabbed him right there? How
- 17:54Speaker 5: are you missing that he grabbed him right there? You know,
- 17:56Speaker 5: he said, you know what, you're right man, I'm sorry
- 17:58Speaker 5: throws the flag to pass interference because he clearly did
- 18:02Speaker 5: grab him on the way by.
- 18:03Speaker 8: You actually weren't just that fast.
- 18:05Speaker 9: Here's one that only Arman and the old souls can get,
- 18:07Speaker 9: because Arman is an old soul. But Cebe Buckner would
- 18:10Speaker 9: have been right at home on the crew refereeing the
- 18:14Speaker 9: gold medal basketball game in Munich.
- 18:16Speaker 5: In seventy two.
- 18:17Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, a gold medal away from you. You
- 18:21Speaker 2: want to go down a ten ful rabbit hole. When
- 18:22Speaker 2: the guys come out of the stands, the director saying,
- 18:25Speaker 2: Reid start to play. And third thing, that was the
- 18:27Speaker 2: most bogus situation.
- 18:29Speaker 5: I got to watch seventy two gold medal game.
- 18:32Speaker 9: The US lost and they got host by the referees
- 18:35Speaker 9: about about thirty different ways. And yeah, there are game
- 18:39Speaker 9: there are twice there are Doug Collins was on that team.
- 18:43Speaker 9: There are players who have it in their will like
- 18:46Speaker 9: they didn't accept their silver medal. They never took the
- 18:48Speaker 9: silver medals, they didn't accept them. And there are players
- 18:50Speaker 9: who put it in their will that no matter how
- 18:52Speaker 9: destitute my family gets it, they can't accept that silver
- 18:54Speaker 9: medal and go sell it like it's in their will,
- 18:57Speaker 9: like absolutely, under no circumstances will anybody from my family
- 18:59Speaker 9: be able to claim the silver because they're just sitting
- 19:02Speaker 9: there waiting, amazing. You want the silver medal, you can
- 19:05Speaker 9: have it because you earned it, but they didn't take it.
- 19:07Speaker 2: And then there's some international basketball people say those were
- 19:10Speaker 2: all the right calls still, but I just shouldn't have
- 19:12Speaker 2: been conducted.
- 19:13Speaker 5: There's a doc about it, docs about it, but I'm
- 19:17Speaker 5: gonna say YouTube has a number of these things.
- 19:20Speaker 8: I just had a long interview on it.
- 19:21Speaker 9: When you think about like the great miscarriages of justice
- 19:25Speaker 9: and sports and the bad calls that's in the that's
- 19:28Speaker 9: in the mountain, I.
- 19:29Speaker 5: Really think that's why this it's more than one call.
- 19:31Speaker 2: It was like a whole series, like a circumstance of
- 19:33Speaker 2: they restarted the play and replayed the last couple of
- 19:36Speaker 2: seconds a couple of times to give the Russians a chance.
- 19:38Speaker 2: And that's why I think, like in the end, fans
- 19:40Speaker 2: want justice to be served, and that's why that we
- 19:43Speaker 2: see such the crowd pops now with this ABS. It's
- 19:46Speaker 2: like it's cool if we like you said, but players
- 19:49Speaker 2: like under the breath, Okay, yeah, you missed it, No
- 19:51Speaker 2: big deal. I don't think it's like I'm not mad
- 19:53Speaker 2: at you, but I just want the right call to
- 19:54Speaker 2: be righted because I deserved a ball there or strike
- 19:56Speaker 2: or whatever.
- 19:57Speaker 5: Would it be.
- 19:58Speaker 2: So I don't think there's anything. And you know, we
- 20:00Speaker 2: used to sell babble, used to complain about this all time.
- 20:02Speaker 2: I think it's good to make sure the wrong gets
- 20:04Speaker 2: righted because you want the right calls in place, and
- 20:06Speaker 2: it doesn't take long. But I guess I just never
- 20:09Speaker 2: anticipated it. Maybe I should have the absolute energy and
- 20:12Speaker 2: joy of the atmosphere of the game that it adds
- 20:15Speaker 2: because the fans are enjoying seeing justice being served in
- 20:19Speaker 2: real time for umpires or one way or the other,
- 20:22Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And I think that's there's
- 20:24Speaker 2: an aspect to that now, and I think it's sort
- 20:27Speaker 2: we always joke about the hold them accountable fans. They're
- 20:29Speaker 2: always out there, well, this is the one way to
- 20:31Speaker 2: say we're holding you accountable, and not only that you
- 20:35Speaker 2: got it wrong, so we're going to publicly embarrass you.
- 20:38Speaker 2: And that's what people want. They want to be able
- 20:40Speaker 2: to embarrass the umpires, they.
- 20:41Speaker 5: Want to we want to embarrass anybody like that is
- 20:44Speaker 5: twenty five, twenty six of us. We want to go out,
- 20:47Speaker 5: he got it, and we don't want to let you
- 20:49Speaker 5: know that we're right. We want to let you know
- 20:50Speaker 5: you are wrong and an idiot. And this is why
- 20:54Speaker 5: I'm right. And now I get the easiest science possible
- 20:56Speaker 5: to be able to.
- 20:57Speaker 2: But the one might be defract of your bumpires.
- 21:01Speaker 8: He frocked.
- 21:01Speaker 5: I like that. I'm okay now, but I am gonna
- 21:05Speaker 5: I give all lee way to somebody that has to
- 21:07Speaker 5: called balls and strikes for misrawski game here today, it's
- 21:09Speaker 5: all just seeing how much the ball is gonna move
- 21:13Speaker 5: here today, I'm gonna give cbe a little bit of grace. However,
- 21:17Speaker 5: by the third inning, I'm very very ready to pull
- 21:20Speaker 5: all of that grace back.
- 21:21Speaker 9: Yeah, and it's c b uh to torture a metaphor here.
- 21:26Speaker 9: He he's got He faces a two strike count. Like
- 21:30Speaker 9: you know, if if umpire Bill Schmid misses a call
- 21:33Speaker 9: in the second inning, everybody's like, oh they missed that one. Yeah,
- 21:36Speaker 9: CB misses a call, that's the worst he's yeah, he's
- 21:39Speaker 9: in the crosshairs already. He's he steps behind the dish
- 21:43Speaker 9: facing a two strike count.
- 21:44Speaker 8: Because his history. It's just that's what it is.
- 21:47Speaker 5: I'm not the guy that usually watches the game cast
- 21:50Speaker 5: while I'm at the game.
- 21:51Speaker 8: I might have that thing up here today just to
- 21:53Speaker 8: see where the logo.
- 21:56Speaker 5: To enjoy.
- 21:56Speaker 2: Yeah, he's getting to the point where he might be
- 21:58Speaker 2: going by Christopher Blake buck Nor and not CB it
- 22:01Speaker 2: is it could be.
- 22:02Speaker 1: It is hot.
- 22:03Speaker 5: Take Humpday eight seven seven seven.
- 22:04Speaker 9: Nine three gets you into the Nicolay Law dot Com
- 22:07Speaker 9: talk and text and I'm gonna have some fun throughout
- 22:10Speaker 9: the program today. If you want to talk, tell us
- 22:12Speaker 9: your favorite botched officiating call of all time.
- 22:16Speaker 5: Jim Joyce would like a word.
- 22:17Speaker 8: We'll discuss all of that.
- 22:19Speaker 9: Talk to LFE John Greenberg, and get ready for a
- 22:22Speaker 9: Brewers matinee today. It is the huddle Fox Sports Radio, Wisconsin.
- 22:33Speaker 2: William said, throws the first it's what rady, it's backed
- 22:37Speaker 2: up by four tes.
- 22:38Speaker 3: That should be a base hit for ballots.
- 22:42Speaker 1: Never did make a move towards second base right away,
- 22:48Speaker 1: so he's safe.
- 22:50Speaker 5: Heck of an effort by Williams.
- 22:51Speaker 4: Should a second Funner did not touch first base, and
- 22:56Speaker 4: then we'll put out So the call from Cebe Buckner
- 23:02Speaker 4: is that Jake Bauers missed first base and then was
- 23:06Speaker 4: tagged out, not that he made a move to second
- 23:08Speaker 4: base right and was tagged out, that he flat out
- 23:11Speaker 4: missed the bag.
- 23:14Speaker 3: And I think that is the horrendous call. Where is
- 23:17Speaker 3: cebe Butner looking?
- 23:18Speaker 5: He's not even looking at it. Why would he even
- 23:20Speaker 5: say that.
- 23:21Speaker 3: Ce B Buckner was not even looking at the play.
- 23:24Speaker 5: He stepped right on top of first bay.
- 23:26Speaker 1: I'm not sure what CB Buckner's looking at there.
- 23:28Speaker 5: That's ridiculous.
- 23:29Speaker 3: Well, I'm really excited for him to have the plate tomorrow.
- 23:34Speaker 1: Oh, don't return.
- 23:35Speaker 5: I walk you a danger Towns.
- 23:39Speaker 4: That's just a waste of time reviewing that at least
- 23:43Speaker 4: review is available so you can get it right.
- 23:45Speaker 5: Yeah, no kidding. Everybody laughing at that call.
- 23:50Speaker 3: Kevin Cash is laughing. Look at her. Those two guys
- 23:53Speaker 3: are laughing. I can't wait to see that text chain
- 23:56Speaker 3: between those two guys.
- 23:57Speaker 9: Yeah, Jeff Levering, Belle Schroeder, Brewer's TV. The mystery, the
- 24:05Speaker 9: majesty of C. B. Buckner and all his glory last
- 24:08Speaker 9: night missing a call. Now he moves to the plate
- 24:10Speaker 9: this afternoon, So you're gonna get an extra show today, folks.
- 24:14Speaker 8: Be ready.
- 24:15Speaker 9: It's not like there's a oh Yesterday, there's a lot
- 24:17Speaker 9: of brushback pitches. We're gonna see a bean bullwart. No,
- 24:19Speaker 9: we're gonna see Cebe Buckner, a Cbe Buckner production behind
- 24:22Speaker 9: home plate.
- 24:23Speaker 8: And getting absolutely roasted.
- 24:25Speaker 5: The locking eyes in the Kevin Cash holding back the
- 24:29Speaker 5: laugh and then waiting for Murph to kind of crack
- 24:31Speaker 5: a smile, and then he does, and then both of
- 24:33Speaker 5: them just turning away because they can't stop laughing about
- 24:36Speaker 5: how bad it was.
- 24:38Speaker 2: It is.
- 24:38Speaker 5: It is tremendous. I was listening to some Elaine and
- 24:40Speaker 5: Josh Mauer during the break as well. Uh, the realization
- 24:45Speaker 5: of wow, is that this he really missed it that bad?
- 24:49Speaker 5: I think that's what was happening in New York because everyone,
- 24:51Speaker 5: because you heard Rock say it, what's taken so long?
- 24:54Speaker 5: Do you think everybody in New York's like, guys, you
- 24:58Speaker 5: gotta see this. Hold on, let me let me rewind this.
- 25:01Speaker 5: Look at how bad this is. Look at my man,
- 25:03Speaker 5: he's not even looking. He's trying to buy a fifty
- 25:05Speaker 5: to fifty raffle ticket. He knows that they're drawing at
- 25:08Speaker 5: that end of the fifth inning, and he's trying to
- 25:09Speaker 5: make sure he gets in.
- 25:10Speaker 9: I like to yours that he was looking at front
- 25:12Speaker 9: row Amy. I don't even know she was at the
- 25:13Speaker 9: game last night. I didn't see that.
- 25:14Speaker 5: I mean I had people have been wondering where front
- 25:17Speaker 5: row Amy's I don't look anymore.
- 25:19Speaker 8: I mean her tickets up. Put a lot of her
- 25:21Speaker 8: tickets up.
- 25:22Speaker 2: Yeah, she's a ticket broker.
- 25:22Speaker 8: I mean, yeah, she's a ticket broker. Oh here, oh okay, Well.
- 25:27Speaker 5: I'm saying I'm saying that because I only see.
- 25:30Speaker 9: People sell tickets that have a partial package and come on,
- 25:34Speaker 9: you got commitments, you got life.
- 25:35Speaker 8: She's not a ticket broker. She's entitled to get rid
- 25:38Speaker 8: of her.
- 25:38Speaker 5: She's entitled do it.
- 25:39Speaker 8: That's a derogatory shot. You didn't need to take.
- 25:43Speaker 5: That was.
- 25:45Speaker 2: To say she's a ticket broker because he sells some
- 25:47Speaker 2: more tickets and goes again.
- 25:48Speaker 8: Okay, a lot of people sell tickets.
- 25:50Speaker 2: They don't packer fans, they go, they could come out.
- 25:52Speaker 9: Well, that's what I'm saying. So it's like, what about
- 25:55Speaker 9: their property. Is a ticket bro she goes to sell
- 25:59Speaker 9: that many she just put out when she hasn't.
- 26:01Speaker 5: It's a market take, but it's also only see hers
- 26:04Speaker 5: doing How hard is it.
- 26:05Speaker 8: She also buys one ticket, yes, and that's got to
- 26:08Speaker 8: be hard to sell.
- 26:09Speaker 5: That's what I'm selling, the one ticket.
- 26:11Speaker 8: I'm gonna go sit there.
- 26:12Speaker 9: So you gotta find one person who wants to go
- 26:14Speaker 9: there by themselves and sit in that seat.
- 26:15Speaker 5: Or and and this is the other part is I've
- 26:18Speaker 5: often thought about it to try to get the front
- 26:19Speaker 5: row amy experience and then bring the young lad. But
- 26:23Speaker 5: to make sure that he's gonna lock in and be
- 26:26Speaker 5: there the whole time and not turn around and try
- 26:27Speaker 5: smacking somebody in the back of the head or catching
- 26:29Speaker 5: a baseball and throwing it. That would be the tough one.
- 26:31Speaker 3: True.
- 26:31Speaker 5: This is this is one. This is one hill that
- 26:33Speaker 5: Army's gonna go lay on.
- 26:35Speaker 2: He he loves all I will, but I love I
- 26:39Speaker 2: love Yeah, I love telling people to do with their tickets.
- 26:41Speaker 2: Is that the joke is that your that is your
- 26:42Speaker 2: favorite thing to do. I'm just saying it seems like
- 26:45Speaker 2: she does it a lot. Now, That's all I'm saying.
- 26:47Speaker 2: I'm not telling someone they can't do it or it's
- 26:49Speaker 2: not there right, But I'm gonna have a little commentary on.
- 26:51Speaker 5: It, you know a little bit.
- 26:52Speaker 2: Well, I just that's what I mostly Listen, it's not
- 26:55Speaker 2: two thousand and eight anymore. Right, we're talking about front
- 26:58Speaker 2: Row Amy a lot. No, So, like all right, I
- 27:01Speaker 2: don't know where she's been, but it's like it's been
- 27:02Speaker 2: almost twenty years now since that that started.
- 27:05Speaker 5: I mean, we don't have that many famous fans.
- 27:07Speaker 8: Yeah, that's the thing. We only get like two or three.
- 27:10Speaker 5: I mean, I know she's very nice.
- 27:12Speaker 8: One time I sat in that area.
- 27:14Speaker 2: Okay, I'm not one of the privileged few, all right,
- 27:16Speaker 2: so I'm a blue collar guy. So one time I
- 27:19Speaker 2: was able to sit in that area and she was
- 27:21Speaker 2: a very nice person and it was it was totally fine.
- 27:24Speaker 2: Nothing against her, but I'm just saying she she does
- 27:27Speaker 2: that sometimes she sells tickets over a franchise.
- 27:29Speaker 5: And I had her in a studio one time. It
- 27:31Speaker 5: was a good time. Good the very very nice young lady.
- 27:33Speaker 5: But uh, I always appreciate when when we get to
- 27:36Speaker 5: have somebody try to imitate front Row Amy and then
- 27:38Speaker 5: sitting next to her.
- 27:39Speaker 2: Fun.
- 27:39Speaker 8: I know that I'm gonna be close. I'm gonna wear
- 27:41Speaker 8: the wig and enjoy it.
- 27:42Speaker 5: This is this would be a day, though, if you
- 27:45Speaker 5: had the means to go and get the front row
- 27:47Speaker 5: Amy experiences to get the Minsarowski experience. I mean, to
- 27:51Speaker 5: see him throw here today is gonna be one that
- 27:54Speaker 5: you're I'm gonna enjoy. Also former brewer Drew Rasmussen, who
- 27:58Speaker 5: when you really start thinking bad to it, Drew, that's
- 28:01Speaker 5: a trade that worked out for both sides because he's
- 28:03Speaker 5: the centerpiece of the Willia Damas trade that brings Willy
- 28:06Speaker 5: into Milwaukee, and you got to give something to get something.
- 28:09Speaker 5: Rasmussen has been nails in Tampa and has been phenomenal,
- 28:14Speaker 5: But he was a really fascinating story coming up. What
- 28:17Speaker 5: do you have like two shoulder surgeries or two elbow surgeries?
- 28:21Speaker 5: And there was question if he was ever going to
- 28:23Speaker 5: be the pitcher he could be. He has and it's
- 28:25Speaker 5: gonna be a great matchup there today. He's been an
- 28:27Speaker 5: all star.
- 28:28Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, we certainly aren't going to lament the
- 28:30Speaker 9: Willia Damas trade, but the race got something back. Good
- 28:33Speaker 9: baseball trade, help both teams, help both. Yeah, that JP
- 28:36Speaker 9: firerising guy.
- 28:38Speaker 5: Had a cup of coffee. Didn't do much. I don't think, no,
- 28:40Speaker 5: But I think what it was Steven's point, he probably
- 28:42Speaker 5: sold He sold it. He sold like fifty tickets. I
- 28:44Speaker 5: think to one of those games. So that's always a
- 28:45Speaker 5: good deal.
- 28:46Speaker 9: And the race by looking back, based on what happened
- 28:50Speaker 9: to Wander Franco, they might have better serve keeping Williadamas.
- 28:54Speaker 8: Yeah, not saying, just saying.
- 28:56Speaker 5: The clubhouse leader, great human beings, nikes one hundred million dollars. Listen,
- 29:02Speaker 5: there's a lot of there's a lot of times where
- 29:04Speaker 5: you start looking back and saying, hey, you gotta you
- 29:06Speaker 5: gotta know the player that you're bringing in here or
- 29:08Speaker 5: or what they're finding themselves into.
- 29:09Speaker 2: Well, there's a guy not brokering anything these days. Yeah,
- 29:12Speaker 2: that's true.
- 29:13Speaker 9: No, it was the mom I believe that Rasmussen's first
- 29:16Speaker 9: game at American Family Field where when I was dreaming
- 29:19Speaker 9: of being in the big leagues, it was to go
- 29:21Speaker 9: pitch for the Brewers.
- 29:23Speaker 2: You think Bruce fans will remember and give him that
- 29:25Speaker 2: type of welcome and stuff like that.
- 29:27Speaker 8: No, but he does have a sweet beard.
- 29:29Speaker 5: He's always one of my one of my favorite grabs
- 29:31Speaker 5: in fantasy baseball because he just chews up innings.
- 29:33Speaker 8: Good good pitcher.
- 29:35Speaker 5: Uh, now we've had our friend Boss Dobler waking up
- 29:37Speaker 5: with us here on the on the YouTube.
- 29:39Speaker 8: Stream, right.
- 29:40Speaker 5: I like that foul ball on Arman. She is a
- 29:43Speaker 5: stadium icon. Amy is a stadium icon. We only have
- 29:45Speaker 5: about two or three of them that we can enjoy.
- 29:48Speaker 5: He also said, how about that Garrett Mitchell performance last night?
- 29:52Speaker 8: Uh, Now, I was wondering, I don't know that.
- 29:56Speaker 5: If Babe Ruth walked out of the dugout himself, then
- 29:59Speaker 5: I'm pinch hitting any body for Gary Sanchez, then case
- 30:04Speaker 5: in point go right back to Sunday. Gary Sanchez is
- 30:07Speaker 5: the one that Christian Yellige pitch. It's for so uh
- 30:11Speaker 5: while I'm sitting on my couch, I'm like, I don't
- 30:13Speaker 5: know why on earth anybody is hitting for Sanchez when
- 30:16Speaker 5: he just obliterated a ball to the point in center field.
- 30:19Speaker 5: Uh well, case in point would have been Sunday. But
- 30:22Speaker 5: Gary Mitchell looks like he's trying to find it right now.
- 30:24Speaker 5: He does appear like he's struggling at the moment. The
- 30:27Speaker 5: brewers are trying to find him any kind of barbecue
- 30:30Speaker 5: chicken that he can get to get something good for
- 30:32Speaker 5: the soul.
- 30:32Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm you know, I'm about playing, you know, a
- 30:35Speaker 2: tendency number or believing in a system. But it sure
- 30:38Speaker 2: seems like that's one of the situations where you say,
- 30:40Speaker 2: you know, Gary Sanchez has been looking good. Obviously he's
- 30:43Speaker 2: just laced one all the you know, all that stuff.
- 30:46Speaker 2: Maybe this is the night to keep him in the lineup.
- 30:47Speaker 2: I'm with you on that one, Billy, But I think
- 30:49Speaker 2: there's an aspect of that too. We're five games in.
- 30:52Speaker 2: It's still super super early in the year.
- 30:54Speaker 5: One spot.
- 30:56Speaker 2: Get Gary Mitchell a good spot.
- 30:57Speaker 6: I mean.
- 30:59Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, and it's nothing right, it's not for nothing?
- 31:02Speaker 9: Is on bass is like three eighty five.
- 31:05Speaker 2: Yeah, he's I don't think he's been that bad. We
- 31:08Speaker 2: don't know about anybody yet. I think that's the I mean,
- 31:10Speaker 2: the alfree like gonna be bad this year. I don't
- 31:12Speaker 2: think sobody's struggling hard hard, right.
- 31:15Speaker 9: Yeah, we're finding it with Mitchell. You can say, oh,
- 31:17Speaker 9: he's cold, he's two for ten, but he's trying three walk.
- 31:20Speaker 5: It's a good point.
- 31:20Speaker 8: It's a good point.
- 31:21Speaker 9: I mean, his numbers and terrible again, like i'd lead
- 31:25Speaker 9: that guy off and win the Pennant'll give me a
- 31:27Speaker 9: guy with three eighty five on base.
- 31:29Speaker 5: Yeah, but when you're sitting here and he goes over
- 31:32Speaker 5: like three k's the night before like that you're just
- 31:34Speaker 5: trying to find him a good spot. And it ended
- 31:36Speaker 5: up being a good spot because the guy's splits were
- 31:37Speaker 5: like six hundred ops against right.
- 31:39Speaker 8: He's in damn near like nine hundred against left.
- 31:42Speaker 9: It since the whole punch it out as a punching
- 31:44Speaker 9: out as a pinch hitter, I always say, is like
- 31:47Speaker 9: pinch hitting, and he's coming in cold, jock, you know,
- 31:49Speaker 9: oh for sure, Okay, behind the flow.
- 31:51Speaker 5: That's especially for a guy who's not used to doing it. Yeah,
- 31:54Speaker 5: And that's where, like we talked about it during spring
- 31:56Speaker 5: for for Mitchell. He's he played twenty five games a
- 31:59Speaker 5: year ago, and and it does beg the question too,
- 32:03Speaker 5: would it be even better and behoove him the most
- 32:06Speaker 5: to be able to play every single day and get
- 32:09Speaker 5: all of the runway, because I just don't think you're
- 32:12Speaker 5: gonna be able to do that, and and the Brewers
- 32:13Speaker 5: are never gonna play that way in the big league level.
- 32:16Speaker 5: But Murphy's gonna try to find last night where hey,
- 32:18Speaker 5: we got two on, we got a guy who is
- 32:20Speaker 5: definitely gonna give it up against the left hander. Let's
- 32:23Speaker 5: get in there and try and see if you can
- 32:25Speaker 5: get that big hit and spark some confidence, great time
- 32:27Speaker 5: to do it, but one of these days is going
- 32:29Speaker 5: to crash.
- 32:30Speaker 2: He's touched out for AB's in a row, true, over
- 32:34Speaker 2: two days well, and since the homer yelled, just struggled.
- 32:36Speaker 2: That's just the way baseball goes. The thing with Garrett
- 32:39Speaker 2: is like, we haven't had that many opportunities to see
- 32:41Speaker 2: him consistently healthy. So if he is healthy, we might
- 32:44Speaker 2: might as well get him at bats now if he
- 32:45Speaker 2: does get get hurt, right, but if.
- 32:47Speaker 5: You're gonna get the at bats, why would you not
- 32:49Speaker 5: get him every at bat possible? And maybe that in the.
- 32:53Speaker 9: Yeah, anybody who's carving on him is a they're buying
- 32:56Speaker 9: into the short sample early season syndrome, right because Yeah, Okay,
- 33:01Speaker 9: he struck out three times in one game, then struck
- 33:03Speaker 9: out in a pinch hit appearance. The day before that,
- 33:05Speaker 9: he had a couple of hits, m a couple knocks
- 33:07Speaker 9: and drove in a couple of runs like okay.
- 33:09Speaker 8: And two walks on opening Day, no doubt about it.
- 33:11Speaker 5: I'm just saying from like the being able to play
- 33:13Speaker 5: every day, I don't know you're gonna get that runway here? Right?
- 33:17Speaker 5: Is that fair? To That's true?
- 33:18Speaker 2: Absolutely to there's too many options right now. Yeah, I mean,
- 33:21Speaker 2: and that's even with Jackson being hurt. I mean, you
- 33:23Speaker 2: know you have Lockerage is playing well, so I think
- 33:26Speaker 2: you have a good point there, Billy. It's gonna be
- 33:27Speaker 2: tough for him to catch a groove when he's not
- 33:29Speaker 2: playing every day well.
- 33:31Speaker 5: In Lockridge being continuing what he ran through in spring
- 33:34Speaker 5: training has been phenomenally awesome.
- 33:36Speaker 2: See he's playing awesome. And that's the other thing. You
- 33:38Speaker 2: don't know, realistically, cognitively, logically, will that lasts forever? Lockridge?
- 33:42Speaker 2: Like he's gonna keep doing this? I don't know, but
- 33:44Speaker 2: you bet as will catch the heater while he is
- 33:45Speaker 2: roll on it.
- 33:46Speaker 8: And that's the thing.
- 33:47Speaker 5: Yeah, I ain't getting off this table.
- 33:49Speaker 8: Eight seven seven, seven, nine ninety seven to three gets in.
- 33:53Speaker 9: We want your hot takes today, hot take hump day,
- 33:56Speaker 9: plenty of fertile territory. We've been burying the lead today.
- 34:00Speaker 9: We got to see a unicorn. Last night, the Bucks
- 34:02Speaker 9: and Brewers won games on the same twenty four hour period.
- 34:05Speaker 9: How about the Bucks never happens? Cooper Flag, Cooper Flag,
- 34:09Speaker 9: here's your double double. Welcome Milwaukee, have a brought worst.
- 34:11Speaker 9: We'll see you next year. I don't know his mom
- 34:16Speaker 9: and be ready to finish second and Rookie of the
- 34:18Speaker 9: Year Bauting Ooh wow.
- 34:20Speaker 5: I love that it's rolling more and more con and
- 34:23Speaker 5: he's been in every single game.
- 34:25Speaker 9: He's playing in meaningful games. We could see that up
- 34:28Speaker 9: too on a Hot Tay comp day. There's some actually
- 34:32Speaker 9: interesting debate in the NBA. Like I always say, the
- 34:34Speaker 9: NBA regular season is the worst. People are debating the MVP.
- 34:37Speaker 9: We'll talk about that as we move forward. You're listening

- 35:22Speaker 9: three been talking Brewers. Bucks won last night against the Mavericks,
- 35:25Speaker 9: who are who stink worse than the bus.
- 35:27Speaker 5: I guess that's all somehow can do that. Yes, Ryan Rollins,
- 35:31Speaker 5: big game. You know oo's this. You know listen the
- 35:35Speaker 5: anytime Ryan Rellind's gonna put up a game like he
- 35:37Speaker 5: did last night, I'm gonna be very very happy about it.
- 35:40Speaker 5: All the a lot of people thought was, let's try
- 35:42Speaker 5: to find anybody who can play that's under the age
- 35:45Speaker 5: of like twenty five this year, and Ryan Rollins is
- 35:48Speaker 5: clearly that twenty four. Last night, the stat came out
- 35:51Speaker 5: the players with twelve hundred points, four hundred assists, and
- 35:54Speaker 5: one hundred steals, as well as shooting forty percent from
- 35:58Speaker 5: three in a season before the age of ten twenty four,
- 36:01Speaker 5: Ryan Rollins and Steph Curry. Now, Steph did it twice,
- 36:03Speaker 5: and that was also in the midst of Steph's ankle
- 36:05Speaker 5: problems that he was having early in his career. Rownd's
- 36:08Speaker 5: getting a ton of usage. He's getting to throw the
- 36:10Speaker 5: ball and take a ton of shots every single night.
- 36:13Speaker 5: But he's been he was efficient last night, and you
- 36:15Speaker 5: can it is nice still Drew when they play a
- 36:18Speaker 5: team that is also cheeks to just celebrate them winning
- 36:22Speaker 5: a game, even though I know there's folks that are like,
- 36:24Speaker 5: I just want you to get close and then lose.
- 36:27Speaker 5: I struggle that if I sit down and enjoy the
- 36:30Speaker 5: entertainment at the end of the day, I don't want
- 36:33Speaker 5: to get the payoff like I do want to see
- 36:35Speaker 5: on the at the end of it, my team have.
- 36:38Speaker 8: More points than the other one.
- 36:39Speaker 2: Call me crazy, Yeah, you're not crazy, totally. I totally agree,
- 36:42Speaker 2: and you're not. What's the advantage of not meaning at
- 36:44Speaker 2: this point it's a minute.
- 36:45Speaker 5: If it's like it's gonna be so close and matter
- 36:48Speaker 5: the more and more, Again, I don't I haven't had
- 36:51Speaker 5: to deep dive into the NBA draft very much now
- 36:54Speaker 5: with the Bucks or the Packers not having a first
- 36:55Speaker 5: round pick, you really have to dig deep into the
- 36:58Speaker 5: NFL draft to find out who's gonna be there. But
- 37:00Speaker 5: like the folks that do the NBA draft are just
- 37:03Speaker 5: pointing it out, there's like ten to twelve legit dudes
- 37:07Speaker 5: that are gonna come out in this draft. So you're
- 37:09Speaker 5: gonna get the one draft. You're gonna get one, and
- 37:11Speaker 5: then the hope is that you don't mess it up.
- 37:14Speaker 5: Like you've had it for any different first round picks.
- 37:16Speaker 5: They haven't been able to play for you.
- 37:17Speaker 9: You're not gonna get the kid from BYU or Missouri
- 37:19Speaker 9: or the kid the cream of the crop.
- 37:20Speaker 5: But it's all good.
- 37:21Speaker 2: Yeah, get lucky and hit that jat and hit that
- 37:24Speaker 2: thing pong ball jackpot right.
- 37:25Speaker 5: Listen, there was a there was a really really great
- 37:27Speaker 5: player that went five in that in that three draft
- 37:30Speaker 5: and not chances. There have been a lot of drafts
- 37:32Speaker 5: that people have tried to say, we're gonna be the
- 37:34Speaker 5: two thousand and three draft. We haven't seen a draft
- 37:37Speaker 5: actually be the two thousand and three draft since two
- 37:40Speaker 5: thousand and three. But when you have this many different
- 37:43Speaker 5: players that are coming out that are excitable, Hey, I
- 37:46Speaker 5: would love to see it if Acoff ends up coming out,
- 37:48Speaker 5: But again, I wonder how many of these guys are
- 37:49Speaker 5: gonna end up staying in school because they can make
- 37:52Speaker 5: a certain amount of money right away.
- 37:53Speaker 2: That's true, Billy, And there have been great players that
- 37:55Speaker 2: go later in drafts. I hate to say the word
- 37:58Speaker 2: l the l word lucky. To hit the jackpot, you
- 38:00Speaker 2: gotta get a little lucky here. So we'll see what happens.
- 38:03Speaker 2: Maybe the fortunes will turn.
- 38:05Speaker 5: Do you think that you could see guys actually staying
- 38:08Speaker 5: in school or not being like a somewhere in the
- 38:12Speaker 5: lottery Drew say like seven to fifteen if you think
- 38:15Speaker 5: you're gonna go in that back end to the lottery
- 38:18Speaker 5: to say, you know what, though, I'm gonna lock up
- 38:20Speaker 5: a quick twelve I can get nine million from some school.
- 38:24Speaker 5: What did they say Axel was getting from Michigan? Seven
- 38:27Speaker 5: to nine million is some crazy If I can get
- 38:29Speaker 5: ten or eleven million up front, Yeah, it's not the
- 38:32Speaker 5: worst thing, though.
- 38:33Speaker 8: That's hard to say that.
- 38:34Speaker 5: I'm just going to pass that up and less games, Yeah,
- 38:37Speaker 5: you know, less game, shorter season.
- 38:38Speaker 2: You're really not locked in for more than a Yeah,
- 38:40Speaker 2: I mean why wouldn't you. I mean, that's more money
- 38:43Speaker 2: than some rookie most rookie contracts, I think all rookie
- 38:45Speaker 2: contracts right away.
- 38:47Speaker 5: And again the races uh to get to the second
- 38:50Speaker 5: contract and get to the big money deal. But we've
- 38:54Speaker 5: wondered if we'd see guys do it in the NFL.
- 38:57Speaker 5: The money is still not totally there in college football.
- 39:01Speaker 5: But you just saw Dante Moore the Oregon quarterbacks, say, yeah,
- 39:05Speaker 5: you know what, I can make the same and play
- 39:07Speaker 5: at Oregon, or I can go play for.
- 39:09Speaker 8: The Jets and be out of the league in three years.
- 39:11Speaker 5: Right, So maybe I'll be a little bit more selective
- 39:14Speaker 5: when I know where I'm probably gonna go. I'm gonna
- 39:17Speaker 5: miss that one and I'll make the cash and then
- 39:20Speaker 5: go back here. The uncertainty of where you go, maybe
- 39:23Speaker 5: that holds it back in the NBA. That could be
- 39:25Speaker 5: eight seven seven seven nine seven three. Hunter Bombguart was
- 39:29Speaker 5: at the ballpark for us last night, as he has
- 39:31Speaker 5: wont to do. Let's go to Hunter's recap with the
- 39:33Speaker 5: Brewers victory over the race. Thanks guys.
- 39:36Speaker 7: The Brewer is gonna bounce back victory six to two
- 39:38Speaker 7: over the Tampa Bay Rays here tonight to go over
- 39:40Speaker 7: the series win tomorrow. It was a chaotic evening in
- 39:44Speaker 7: all phases here tonight at the ballpark. And that's what
- 39:46Speaker 7: you love about baseball. You never know what you're gonna
- 39:48Speaker 7: see at the ballpark. Well, two challenges that the Brewers
- 39:50Speaker 7: had tonight ended up giving them runs. First, Bryce terrang
- 39:55Speaker 7: tagged out on a first and third situation where he ran.
- 39:58Speaker 1: To second base.
- 39:59Speaker 7: He was tagged the ball popped out of the glove,
- 40:01Speaker 7: but they said it was on the transfer, not so
- 40:03Speaker 7: much on the challenge.
- 40:04Speaker 5: Pat Murphy describes.
- 40:06Speaker 6: Yeah, I had to clarify what it was and give
- 40:09Speaker 6: the umpire credit. Dan he was great. He just said, Hey,
- 40:13Speaker 6: what they're calling is that he had control of the
- 40:15Speaker 6: ball with the tag. Now, I'm going to give you
- 40:19Speaker 6: time to you gotta tell me if you're gonna challenge it,
- 40:24Speaker 6: I'm going to give you the fifteen seconds to challenge it.
- 40:26Speaker 5: That's it.
- 40:27Speaker 6: I had to get clarification on the call. Once I did,
- 40:29Speaker 6: our guys said go ahead and challenge it.
- 40:32Speaker 1: Challenge and then later another challenge.
- 40:34Speaker 5: Jake Bauer's touched first base, but they said he didn't.
- 40:36Speaker 1: They challenged easy overturned.
- 40:38Speaker 7: He scores out of Brandon Lockridge double. Also Gary Sanchez
- 40:41Speaker 7: and Jake Bowers both with own runs on Tuesday night
- 40:44Speaker 7: as well. So it was an eventful evening, especially on
- 40:47Speaker 7: that offensive side. Now on the pitching side, all eyes
- 40:50Speaker 7: run big wu and he performed five innings tour and
- 40:53Speaker 7: run six rank counts, did not walk a man. Great
- 40:55Speaker 7: to see Brandon Woodruff start the season like that, and
- 40:58Speaker 7: then the bullpen came in seven to eight ninth held
- 41:01Speaker 7: the raise to zero runs, awesome job, Jared Kane, Grant
- 41:05Speaker 7: Anderson Avner remake and on healthcare pop Brewers will go

- 41:26Speaker 9: bomb Guard. Always good to have boots on the ground.
- 41:28Speaker 9: It's my favorit ballpark.
- 41:29Speaker 5: And also my one of my favorite parts of the
- 41:31Speaker 5: Hunter experience that you get to enjoy on YouTube here
- 41:34Speaker 5: with us on the huddle is the different spot, the
- 41:36Speaker 5: different vantage point that he has the recap from. He
- 41:38Speaker 5: was doing that one from the Dolph spot yep, that
- 41:41Speaker 5: was from Dolf's viewing area there into the right field
- 41:44Speaker 5: right right field spot in the corner, yes, Salas Pal's area.
- 41:47Speaker 5: There is still a little bit of standing room only
- 41:50Speaker 5: spot that you can get a good view of, and
- 41:51Speaker 5: that would be one of those whole of nooks and crannies.
- 41:53Speaker 9: Absolutely good on Hunter and for all of our focus
- 41:57Speaker 9: on you know, Jake Bowers and Gary Sanchez and C. B.
- 42:00Speaker 5: Buckner. Once again there was bullpen won the game. Man,
