Chuck & Buck 7-8 Hour 4: World Cupping with Anders Hirst, ABC's of the Mariners and one last thing. · Chuck in the Morning

• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Not that I miss you, said me. And if you
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: carry an idiot, no fool of fool you are Matsy.
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: Just wait.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: Day king Matsy, Matsy.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Voice his den at the end.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: Oh, I love that. It was cracking every single time.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: He just was powering through it. He was emotional. He
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: was almost as emotional as ANDREWS. Hurst yesterday, doubt it,
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: who punched three co workers for talking to him while
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: he was watching the end of that match. He behaved
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: as if like somebody was holding his family ransom, and
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: if Argentine didn't win, he'd never see them again. That's
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: how anders Hurst comported himself in our office yesterday. But
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: in the end, in the end, he came out all
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: smiles and all was well in the Hurst household. He
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: joins us now on the program, probably wearing his messy jersey,
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: probably got a permanent messy jersey tattoo over his entire
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Torso last night anders Hurst is with us here on
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: Chuck and Book. Good morning, sir, Good morning.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: The ransom was met. So yeah, everyone's safe as this now,
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: but we'll wait after Saturday. I see what happened.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: You were sweating it. I mean, you were facing us
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: elimination Argentina elimination in the span of like fifteen hours,
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: and you were feeling it, yep.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: I needed. I needed to have at least one team
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: to root for in the quarterfinals and hopefully that continues
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: because having them both just throw duds out there after
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: what the US did and the Argentina started a very
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: similar way where they looked terrible for the majority of
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: the game. They ended up figuring it out very late,
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: but better late than ever, I guess.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Put that in perspective for us, just how monumental that comeback?
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: I mean it's only two goals. I mean we watch
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: a lot of sports where you know, two hundred points
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: are scored in a game, or football sixty five eighty
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: points are scored occasionally in a game. Well, two goals
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: doesn't seem in the big picture to be all that
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: much to overcome. But in this sport, at this level,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: in this tournament, to pull that off in the last
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: what fifteen minutes or so, Yeah, put that in perspective,
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: and just what how large a comeback that was?
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: Well, especially if you put the winner onto that, so
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: I would end up being three goals in twelve minutes
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: for Argentina. To move on to the final or sorry,
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: the quarterfinal, excuse me, but yeah, I mean Tom Brady
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: tweeted out yesterday, I guess that beats twenty eight to three.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: So if you guys, if we're, if we're, if we're
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: following his footsteps, I mean, it's just as monumental im
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: a comeback as that. I probably still put twenty eight
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: to three over that, just because it happened in the
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: super Bowl, So if that happened in the World Cup final, yeah,
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: that would be a different story. But I mean the
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: fact that, like I said, three goals in twelve minutes,
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: and again it's not like Argentina was pounding on the
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: door for the entire game. They kind of just turned
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: something on and all of a sudden they were able
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: to be like the team that we expected to be
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: in you know, Egypt's not a void of fault either,
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: because man even to too, they were like going for
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: the winner and leaving themselves open at the back. So
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: there's a lot of question marked with them in this
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: one as well.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: So is the messy thing at this point like indisputable
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: in terms of his greatness. I mean, obviously he is great,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: but we still I mean I believe Jordan's above Lebron,
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: but I believe Lebron's firmly number two. And I at
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: least understand why you might have that conversation. But is
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: there no more conversation in the soccer world? Did he
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: just kind of cement it yesterday? Don't bring up anybody else?
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: And who's the best soccer player of all time? Yeah?
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: I think. I mean, in my personal opinion, even before
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: he won the World Cup in twenty twenty two, he
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: was the best. But like I said, I thought, you know, Ronaldo,
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: Palea and Maradona were all right there. Him getting over
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: the mountaintop in twenty twenty two definitely for most people
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: both cemented to him, but there were still some stragglers.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: And then seeing what he's doing at this World Cup,
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: I think you're right as definitely made it almost indisputable
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: at this point. Anyone who tries to say anything else
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: is just trolling. To be completely honest. I kind of
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: compare it more to like Wayne Gretzky in hockey. There's
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: no one in hockey that even debates that he's the
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: best player ever, right, And that's kind of That's kind
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: of the way I look at it versus something in basketball,
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: like you said, Jordan versus Lebron all that stuff. So yeah,
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: I do think it's it's definitely closer to the hockey
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: side of things there. There obviously will be fans and
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: stuff that views in that way, but I think most
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: objective pundits will see things in that way as of now.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: I mean killing Himbape and the shout. You know, in
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: a few years if he's able to get another World
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: Cup and continue his scoring level. But the thing is,
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: Messi's greatness doesn't just happen at the international stage. Happens
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: at the club stage too, so kind of combining both
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: of those things is what makes him as good as
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: he is. And he's been doing it for since two
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: thousand and six, so it's over twenty years now.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: Help me and one more thing on Messi helped me
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: with something because I'm certainly not trying to troll. I
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: don't know enough about soccer to try to troll anyone.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: But as I'm watching it more closely now, like my
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: takeaway from the England match was, Hey, I realized that
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: Messi and Nimbape, and they're huge scores in Holland, are
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: huge scores, but this Bellingham guy for England. He's not
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: only scoring goals, he's taking them away at the other end.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: So tell me, because I kind of took it away
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: like that guy might be the best soccer player in
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: the world because of his two way abilities and how
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: he was playing every inch of the field that night.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: So how does a soccer fan, a soccer expert sort
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: of compare and contrast the guy that it's just an
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: elite scorer who pretty much just dominates one end of
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: the field, the scoring end of the field, versus a
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: Bellingham type. That's kind of like Showe a Otani. He's playing.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: He's as good defensively as he seems to be offensively.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: You know, Jacket's a really good point because there's a
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: lot of people, you know, look at someone maybe like
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: Franz Beckenbauer, who you know, won a World Cup as
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: a player and won one as a coach, was a
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: solid center back for a long time in the top
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: European leagues and then came over here to America obviously,
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: but again different time period. But that's kind of where
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: a lot of people say, Hey, maybe it's it's the
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: both sides of the ball sort of thing. The only
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: thing that I think has elevated the top goal scorers
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: is because it's so valuable. It's much more valuable than
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: than the defensive side of things, Like it's you can
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: find a really good defender and pretty much it's much
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: more common to get your your team the defensive side
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: figured out. It's it's scoring goals. As you see, it's
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: so rare because there's so few goals in each game.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: Having one of those players that can do it at
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: the absolute highest of levels is is that much more
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: valuable to a team than than someone who does it
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: on both sides and at a high level. And I
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: don't want to just spee what you're you're pondering here,
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: but so Shoho Tani on both ends is at least
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: a top five player. And Jude Bellingham probably wouldn't be
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: a top five defender if he was just a defender,
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: and he wouldn't be a top five striker if he
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: was just a striker. He's very good at both, don't
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: get me wrong, But the fact that you know you
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: can do both is different than being elite at both.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: So again, how special show hey is? But that kind
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: of it goes to show like in soccer, things are
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: very much specialized and everyone has their role, and having
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: someone who can do the just goal scoring, by the way,
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: with MESSI, maybe that's something that separates him, I think
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: a little bit from the Ronaldos, the Ambappes and the Hollands.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: It's the creative piece. It's the kind of passing, intricate play,
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: and that he can get involved with his teammates as well.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: You're seeing more of the goal scoring now because he's
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: older and he doesn't really have the legs to dribble
• 9:18
  Speaker 4: by everyone, but in his prime he was much more
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: of the provider as well.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Well, let me keep clear about something. Nobody's a show hey.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: Nobody show hey exactly like Hey, like yeah, but nobody
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: show hey and is with us here on Chuck and
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: Buck in the morning. So I will ask one more
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: question before we move on to the US. How did
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: how did your wife handle the emotions of yesterday?
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: Well, you left after I showed the office the picture
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: that my wife sent me of my son crying because
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: she screamed so loud and scared him. I'm serious, I
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: will I will show it to you when I get
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: in today. But it's quite funny because that's probably the
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: fourth time that's happened. Now at this world, and he's
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: as a four month old, He's like, what in the
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: name of God is going on here? So I think
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: he's starting to figure out pretty quickly how important this
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: game and this team is to his mom and dad. There. Yeah,
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: I did it a couple of times with the US,
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: and he and his mom with Argentina, probably to a
• 10:26
  Speaker 4: bigger extent.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: Well, you do run the risk though, of Pavlovian this thing,
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: and now he's going to associate soccer with my parents scream,
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: So he might actually not like soccer going for it,
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: make it right. Actually the opposite effect you wanted to have,
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: that he might just like, oh, soccer.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: Scary. That's good.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: All right, let's talk about the US. You've had a
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: little time to digest this, even though I know it
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: didn't go down well for you or any other big
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: time I'm American soccer fan slash analysts. So as you
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: sit now, how did it go so terribly wrong the
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: other night?
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: I still don't know why. That's a big question that
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: I keep coming to, is why. But as much as
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: I can analyze it, the thing that dumbfounds me more
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: than anything else is how big of a gap their
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: performance was against Belgium versus all four of the other games,
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: And yes you can include the Turkey loss in that,
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: because at least A they've played their backups and b
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: they showed some fight in that game. The fact that
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: there was just no urgency, no desperation for a moment
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: as big as that is the most frustrating thing I
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: felt in sports in a very long time show. And
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: it's I don't know I Originally, when I was about
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: to go on the air for the postgame show, I
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: was pretty mad at the coach because you know, it's
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: one thing to have, you know, a couple of players
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: not show up, but to have the entire team not
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: show up, that's when I kind of look at coaching.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: But Danny Jackson, our expert, played for a former captain
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: of the Sounders during the USL days and you know,
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: played at Leeds United over in England for a while.
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: He kind of talked me off the ledgend was like, hey, look,
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: what is the manager supposed to say to a player
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: if you're not motivated for a round of sixteen match
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: at the World Cup on home soil in that atmosphere.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: I mean there's nothing a coach can say at that
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: point too to get you ready. And I think the
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: biggest thing that I've come away with that whole performance
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: is that the US, while having really good players, they
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: don't have any big players. That's kind of the distinction
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: that I have been making in my head, and I
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: think that's the conclusion a lot have come to. They
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: all shrink in the biggest moment, unfortunately, and no one
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: like a messy type or a Holland or an abape
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: was there to carry them over the line when they
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: needed them to. So it sucks because I thought this
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: team was different and in the end, this is the
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: match that we're going to probably remember most. Obviously from
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: this World Cup. I still think there was a lot
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: of positives and there were still some advancements and steps
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: forward made. It's just he took a pretty big step
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: back in the last and most important game that you played.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would push back a little bit on Danny's
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: thoughts on that. I don't entirely. I mean, I don't
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: disagree with it, like how how do you need any
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: extra motivation here? But Jackson brought up something similar yesterday,
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: and I think it's because they're the same person, Danny
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: Jackson Felts, and so he brought up something similar yesterday,
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: but he was talking about I don't know what was
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: he supposed to give a raw Ross speech. No, it's
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: not about a raw Ross speech. It's not about your
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: miracle moment. But I do think it is a coach's
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: responsibility to gauge whether or not his team is locked in.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: We talk about this with coach Holmgren all the time,
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: and there were times where he would know in the
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: middle of the week of practice whether or not his
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: team was where it needed to be mentally for the game.
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: And so I do think there's a little bit of
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: responsibility on the head coach when your entire team shows
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: up flat, and whether that had anything to do with
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: Balligan and the controversy and the scandal, you got to
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: make sure that that doesn't affect your players and it
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: doesn't affect their focus. So, I mean, I agree there
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: shouldn't you shouldn't need to give some sort of raw
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: Rah speech. But I do hang if your team, for
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: its biggest match ever shows up and to a man,
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: they're flat, something got missed by the coach during the
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: course of the week.
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I definitely agree with you on that. I
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: just in my head when I logically or maybe illogically
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: at that point right after the game, was like, oh,
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: everyone was bad, it's all the coaches fault. What is
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: he doing? He didn't have them ready. It's a different
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: kind of UH with soccer. It's very much like as
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: a player, it's your response ability when you step over
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: the line to uh to be locked in. And but
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: you're right, I think there definitely could have been maybe
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: some steps taken. I do wonder how much the Balligan distraction,
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: I guess is the word played in effect. Again, I
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: just don't know if.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: I'm not gonna let that if that, if that's used
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: as a reason, well, we're just that scandal scared us.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: That's where a coach is like, we're not gonna let
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: this affect us. He's gonna make sure everybody's mind is right.
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and if not, then you're not starting right and
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: like it's that simple.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Like.
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: But again, I think there's a reason why it's now
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: been multiple coaches in the US where you can compare
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: it to the twenty twenty two World Cup or yes,
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: they didn't look as dominant in the group stage but
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: we still saw some bright flashes from U from the guys,
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: and when they comes to playing against big teams and
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: big moments, this team does, these players, this group of players,
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: this nation as a soccer playing country, is unable to
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: get over that hump. And I think it's because, like
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: I said, you have players that play at at big clubs,
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: but they're not None of them are the guy at
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: their big club and they've i maybe with the exception
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: of Christian Poulisik, who is a whole different conversation, they
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: haven't played in like the big moments of soccer, like
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: the Champions leagues, competing for Premier League titles, all that
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: kind of stuff. Because it showed that yesterday, like they
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: just weren't ready for the moment. And you know, it's
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: it's one thing to you know, be a good player
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: against Bosnia or you know, against Paraguay, who that's a
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: good performance showing that they beat Germany and then ended
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: up taking France to the brink, two of the best
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: teams in the world. But when you are playing against
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: the higher quality, big time competition and you wilt under
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: the pressure like that, it's just something we've seen far
• 16:59
  Speaker 4: too often with with this country and this with this
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: national team.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Unfortunately last minute, do you have a different favorite than
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: you started with to win it all? Who are you
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: picking with the eight now set?
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: I mean as muchly my heart wants to say Argentina.
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: It feels I don't want to say inevitable because they
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: keep just scraping by these teams that they should be
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: being by a lot. But I guess France would be
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: my kind of favorite because of how just how much
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: firepower they have an attack. I will say if they
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: still haven't really played a game where they have a
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: team that takes it to them, and maybe that's by design.
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: Maybe most teams see that attack and be like, oh,
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: best way to stay in this game is to just
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: defend and keep it close for as long as possible.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: But I still think that they're vulnerable in the back,
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: so they're not an unbeatable team, but as of now,
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: they're playing the best. I'll say it that way. If
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: Argentina finally clicks something on like the can, I think
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: they can definitely give France a run for their money.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: England I think definitely is up there as well. As
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: you mentioned, like they again, it took them just just
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: scraping by to beat Mexico, but you're gonna need to
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: have those types of performances. They showed something that I
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: didn't think they had the opposite of the US in
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: the big moment, so hopefully they can kind of continue
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: to carry that on as well. It's gonna be a
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: fantastic tournament. I mean, if the chalk goes, it's going
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: to be England versus Argentina in the semifinal and France
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: Versustain in the other semifinal, and those are just fantastic matchups.
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: So I honestly could say anything about any one of
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: those four teams.
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: Well as far as I can tell. With Argentina, they
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: can score whenever they want, they just don't always want to. Yeah, yeah, true.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: Hey we're trailing, we're trailing by five goals with four
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: minutes to play. Let's get six. It got six right here,
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: real fast, just one after another. All right, man, Well,
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: thank you, We appreciate great work as always, and we'll
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: see you soon.

• 20:27
  Speaker 5: saw Terry Holloman and Norris Frederick doing some practice.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Oh practice, are they playing in it?
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: They're playing in it?
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: So I.
• 20:36
  Speaker 5: Think it was Norris Frederick. But he said, did you
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: see that? Because he was hitting a couple cages over.
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: I said no, I'm sorry. I was watching my daughter's
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: friend do a weird dance like she hit a home run.
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: And he goes, oh, I said, what are you training for?
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: Anyway?
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: He said, the All Star Celebrity Classic. I said, okay,
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: I've heard about that.
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Terry Hollman's going to be there.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he was hitting some balms.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: Book it, yep, book it. All right, Well, let's get
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: to the ABC's of the ms here. We left off
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: of the letter R yesterday, and R is for regular Congratulations.
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: Almost felt like he should wear like a patch or
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: something last night, but Dom Canzone has graduated officially to
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: regular status. It was reported yesterday that he is going
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: to start against both lefties and right He's going forward
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: and right. Now he's hitting right in the middle of
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: our order. And how did he celebrate this great achievement
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: of his He went hitless last night.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I really wanted him to do something.
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: I was the pressure's too much. Yeah, there's nothing. I'm
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: not achieving anymore. It was a goal and now I've
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: retieved my goal. Now I can't hit anymore. I think
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: this is the right move. I got to give anders
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: Hurst credit for this because he said it on our podcast,
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: our Stove thirty podcast not long ago, that should we
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: be entertaining it, And I didn't really think so. I
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: did think he deserved more looks against left handers, but
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: I didn't know if we'd get to the point where
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: we felt comfortable with him playing every single day. But
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: I do know, I do know over the course of
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: the last month, certainly I feel better about him than
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: ref Schnider against left handers.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: Well, I will say, I don't know.
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Okay, the road I was gonna say, I don't
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: know that that's saying a lot about ref Snyder because
• 22:23
  Speaker 5: I feel better about Terry Hobbs, about Matt Hobbs against left.
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: Handers Terry Holloman. I mean he looked great in that
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: cage y.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he did against the lefty any day, So I'm good.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: I'm good with the don playing every day against lefties
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: and righties and excited to see what kind of results
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: we get. I mean, he was making contact two years
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: ago against lefty. The previous year he couldn't hit lefties
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: at all, but he was. He was not hitting for power,
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: but I think he had like two seventy five against
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: lefties last season, and then this year he's actually incorporated
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: some power into it as well. So he is developing,
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: he's emerging, and every player wants to hit against lefties
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: and right he wants to play every day. So it
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: did kind of feel like Dom graduated from something yesterday
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: in the lineup.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, from one side to the other side as he
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: walked across the plate.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: And I just, you know, I don't want to pat
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: ourselves on the back here too much, but this is
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: now like three things I've been like a month ahead
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: of you guys on over there.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: You want me to pat you on the back, and
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: then you're not doing it to yourself.
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I kind of you know, I like to see
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: Dan putting Ferrera in the sixth even though we were
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: down to like that, like that, yep, yep. Yeah. It
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: took a little while for you to get there with me,
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: but I like that. I like their musing munos more frequently.
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: Took way too long for you get on that same
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: page with Andres and I. But we're there, We're there,
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: and so yeah it's coming. I like what you're doing
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: over there. Finally, not in every area.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we got some other ideas though, so don't tune out.
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: Asked this for Scooble. I finally got asked by a
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: friend yesterday where do you think Scoobl's going to land?
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: And it dawned on me. I'm like, I've not been
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: asked this question yet through this entire process, and I
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: have an answer. That's the thing about it. I've had
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: an answer for like a month where I think Trek
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: Scooble's going to land. And I know this is ABC's
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: of the ms, but it's not going to be the Mariners.
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: Otherwise I would have done this this for Seattle, but
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: I think that it does. I mean, we're thinking about it.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: If he's going to be available, does he represent an
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: upgrade at the top of our rotation. It's been kicked
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: around whether or not the Mariners would be interested. I
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: think it's been shoved way to the side here as
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: of late. But nonetheless, Trek Scooble's going to be talked
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: about a lot in the next three four weeks about
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: where he's going to end up because it doesn't look
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: like Detroit's going to get back into this race, even
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: though Tom Berducci did say the other day things are
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: going to still up in Detroit, which I don't see
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: how that happens unless the Tigers get back in the race.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: Where do you think he's gonna end up.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: I think he's gonna end up with the Milwaukee Brewers, really.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: I mean think about that. Milwaukee has been excellent for
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: a number of years, but then they get to the postseason.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: They're built for the regular season, they're not built for
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: the postseason. And yet, what if you had Scoobale and
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: mizz in the same rotation. Can you imagine putting those
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: two together. I mean, Milwaukee's got to go for it
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: at some point, and they're happy with being contenders every
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: year and being in the conversation, and there's no way
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: that any Brewer fan can feel dissatisfied with being a
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: Brewer fan right now. That's how consistently great they've been lately,
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: how much they've overachieved in recent years despite their payroll.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: They win the division, it feels like every single season,
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: and they have the second best record and major League
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: Baseball again this year. But they get the playoffs and
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: they're an easy out. And so you can't redo your
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: entire roster. You can't do redo your entire organizational philosophy.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: But what you can do is rent a player like this,
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: give up a little bit of your prospect capital, and
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: put Trek Scooble with Jacob Mizerowski and say, try to
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: beat us four times. Just try to beat us four
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: times in a short series.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: A great addition that would be that would be fun.
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would love to see fun to watch actually,
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: And of course we certainly don't want him to go
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: to the Yankees with the Dodgers or some other contenders,
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: so we'd like to see him go if he can't
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: be a Mariner, we'd like to see him go to
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: a team that we can actually root for.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: If he goes to the Dodgers, I might never watch
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: baseball again.
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: I'll throw up all over my face. Yeah, if he
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: goes to the Dodgers, but Milwaukee, that's great. Yeah, I
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: like that. And they've done this before. They rented C. C.
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: Sabbathia and they overpitched him, but they knew they weren't
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: going to keep him. They knew aren't gonna be able
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: to afford him. But that was about the closest they've
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: come to putting together a World Series team since nineteen
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: eighty two, and so I think that it's something that
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: is in their bag of tricks, and I think they
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: should go for it. I think that's the perfect fit
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: for him. Finally, Tea is for the Rock. So I
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: have officially declared my hopes for the rotation in the
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: second half, and we've arrived at the conclusion that we
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: thought we were going to arrive at, and it now
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: makes all of this other jumping through hoops and gymnastics
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: seem a little silly. But I think when Bryce Miller
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: was activated, Luis Castillo was our sixth best starting pitcher
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: on the active roster, maybe not in the organization, but
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: on the active roster. So I think we knew then
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: that we should stay with a five man rotation and
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: Luis is unfortunately on the outside looking in. Well, we've
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: gone through all of these hurdles and everything else, and
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: we're getting ready, I think, to make a decision during
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: the All Star break. We're gonna end up exactly where
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: we were when it started. Luis Castill was our sixth
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: best starter and our rotation, and he's not gonna make
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: our five man rotation to start the second half of
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: the season. And I would say this to make it
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: a little bit different than what we talked about at
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: seven point thirty. Why wouldn't he like it? Do you
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: think he's gonna like getting traded to a non contender
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: for financial reasons more than I'll go to the bullpen
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: and help the team out of the bullpen, and if
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: you need me, I can jump back into the starting
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: rotation because I'm not going to be that far removed
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: from it. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. He pitched in the
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: bullpen for two and a half weeks, but I'm not
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: that far removed that I couldn't work my way back
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: into the starting rotation if you needed me. So that's
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: number one. Yeah, he's not gonna he would prefer being
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: in our bullpen. Then he would be on some non
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: contender starting rotation.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely chose to be here.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: He signed an extension with us. He wanted to be
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: a Mariner, so I think he'd prefer that, and I
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: mean most we much more prefer to be in the
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: starting rotation. But versus being moved in a financial move
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: to bring in a bat, I think he'd much rather
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: be here with this team and try to see it through.
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: The second thing is, even if he does, if you
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: can't keep him stretched out, even if the team does
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: stay healthy and he goes two months without having pitched
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: more than two innings, we have Kate Anderson. He's the guy.
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: He's the guy you're keeping long longer in the minor
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: league level. And he's probably a better pitcher than Luis
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: Castillo right now. So even if you do need another
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: starting pitcher, you've got a better option right now in
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: Double A and Kate Anderson than we have with Luis Castillo.
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: And then the third thing is I think he's going
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: to actually be a really good relief pitcher for us,
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: and he would have been perfect for last night. Yeah,
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: we used our four high leverage guys. We went to
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: the tenth. Now we can go to Luis Castillo. To
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: pitch the tenth and he can go at least two
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: innings and maybe more if we need him beyond that.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: How ideal would it have been to have been in
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: a five man rotation last night and Luis Castillo coming
• 30:31
  Speaker 3: out of our bullpen with the ability to go along.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: But also he's been very effective in his first inning,
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: every relief outing that he's had. That would have been
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: the perfect tenth inning pitcher over Michael Rucker last night.
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: To be able to go to Luis Castillo in that
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: situation against the Marlins last night.
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: Well, and I think you're overlooking one big thing as well.
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: We have seen we have proof. I mean there's video
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: proof of this that the starting pitchers have jealousy over
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: the relief pitchers. Fire entrance. Luis wants the fire and
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: now he could finally have it. We do that from
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: the beginning of the season, him and George, why don't
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: we get fire? Luise, you can have the fire now? Yeah,
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: that's been a dream come true.
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: Wait, go that's right. What do you say, buddy, I'm.
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: Just saying picture him. You know, they open the door.
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: Can you smell what the rock is cooking? And the
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: flames go up?
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: I want us to win a World Series, and I
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: want Luis Castillo to be on our team and we
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: win a World Series. But it's time to start being
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: direct about a fire, honest with ourselves about a few things,
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: and honest with our players about a few things. This
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: is your job. This is not This is not preschool, right, Okay, yeah,
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: you this is major league professional baseball, and we're trying
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: to win a World Series. We're going to play the
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: best player at third base when the time comes. That's JP,
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: that's JP. But if it's not JP, it better not
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: be JP. And we're going to have a five man
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: rotation like a grown up team, and it's going to
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: feature our five best starters and enough of enough of
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: everything else.
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: Yep, agreed.
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right, one last thing to close it out
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: next Sports Radio ninety three point three KJRFM, our final
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: segment of today's radio show. Then we have things off
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: to Greg Bell right here on Sports Radio ninety three
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: point three kJ r f M. One last thing. That's
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: how we close out every show practically, Ashley, what do
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: you got today?
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm going to preface this by saying I really
• 32:25
  Speaker 5: like Aaron Goldsmith. I think he does an excellent job
• 32:27
  Speaker 5: on the Marior and news broadcasts. Yeah, as we have
• 32:30
  Speaker 5: joked about or chatted about briefly, there are some There's
• 32:33
  Speaker 5: one thing really that he struggles with, right, and that
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: is being able to judge when a ball is a
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: home run.
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: And so I have an idea, and I don't know
• 32:43
  Speaker 5: if this would work, but maybe you get you hire someone.
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: We'll call him a Dinger detector. They stand in the
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: booth next to Goldsmith and they give us make.
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: Sure people know exactly what we're looking for in a
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: Dinger detector because we can, we can invite it a
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: completely different crowd.
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: You call it. Ah, that's a good one, that's a
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: good point detector.
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: But we're just running this sta to tell us if
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: a home run is a home run or not. We
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: want you to be able to tell Aaron. You're not
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: gonna say a word, You're gonna stand there in the
• 33:13
  Speaker 5: booth next to him and you're gonna give signs if
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: it is.
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: I don't think he needs it, like when it's blasted.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: Those are the ones. He knows that. But then it's
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: like in that first section, like first twelve rows, that's
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: the tricky one.
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: He's very gunshock.
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: Yes, so, and he doesn't want to get it wrong.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: I get that.
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: So let's help him so he doesn't get it wrong.
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: And you give like a maybe as like a belt,
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: like a ding the dinger detector.
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: Maybe a ding when it's gone, it's just ding.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: Like it's a it's a prompt for him. You can
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: get excited about this one, yes, go ahead and get excited.
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, or do a little ding in his ear.
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you get excited.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think. I mean, I'm just saying I'm I'm
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: here trying to create jobs.
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: Trying to harb they are because you want a bullpen
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: guy for Dan, yep, and you want a dinger detector
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: for Aaron.
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: Just trying to help everybody out. You know what, in
• 34:00
  Speaker 5: this economy, this job market, the more jobs the better.
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: I could use a stunt double in here. Yeah.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: You need someone to run for you and kick for you,
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: all right.
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: I'm always doing death defying things in here.
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And sometimes you know, I don't really want to
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: put myself at risk.
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: So well I'll put a job posting for that as well.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: Dinger detector ding, it's Goldies dinger detector.
• 34:25
  Speaker 5: And yeah, and I'm the one problem with the bell.
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: Obviously other people would be able to hear it. Then
• 34:29
  Speaker 5: you'd then draw attention to the fact that Goldie doesn't know.
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: So I mean like you could like the person could
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: make like they could hold up little signs like fireworks
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: when it's a home run and sad face when it's
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: going to be caught at the wall.
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: He really does struggle with it.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: I just you know, I'm trying.
• 34:47
  Speaker 5: It's like his hurting, like his big, big game calls.
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: He's so good when he gets the call right, like
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: he just nails it. I don't want him to second
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: guess himself. I want him to feel confident. And maybe
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: after us half season of The Dinger Detector, he'll he'll
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: get his confidence back.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: He'll know right away.
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: There was an old Saturday and a Live skit called
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: Mister No Depth Perception, and he would sit it at
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: a dinner table like, hey Bill, could you pass a role?
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: And he would throw it like one hundred feet over
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: his head.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go.
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: That's kind of whoever that is kind of like he
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: doesn't have real good depth, and.
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: I just think it makes him nervous. I think he
• 35:22
  Speaker 5: gets nervous that he doesn't want to get it wrong.
• 35:24
  Speaker 5: So I'm trying to help Like this way, you won't
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: get it wrong, and then we're going to build that confidence.
• 35:29
  Speaker 5: And you could even have him like he could give
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: the sign like I think it is, and then they
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: could test him. Yep, you're right, go with it.
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you got this.
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: I'm going to try to get this in. If not,
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: I think maybe we'll spend some time on it tomorrow.
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: But my one last thing is about Tyler Tolbert. There
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: is a for some reason, the younger generation is really
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: triggered by the phrase from older generation baseball fans. Younger
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: generation baseball fans are triggered by the phrase that's just baseball,
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: but it is appropriate or the sport, because this is
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: the type of sport where Aaron Judge could hit one
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: oh five for an entire month of the season and
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: still win the MVP. Yeah, hey, you're not gonna do
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: that in the National Football League. If you have a
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: month of one touchdown and eleven interceptions, you're not going
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: to dig out of that hole and win the Most
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: Valuable Player in the National Football League. You can't be
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: the worst player on your team for a month and
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: still be considered the best player in the sport. What
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: other sport can do that? So there are some things
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: there that's just baseball. There are inexplicable hot streaks that
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: are inexplicable cold streaks, And sometimes the hot streaks come
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: on the heel of the cold streaks and inexplicably like
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: what on Earth changed? And he doesn't even know. The
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: hitter can't even understand why I went from ice cold
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: to red hot just because I hit a bloop single
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: in Miami last Tuesday. I have no idea. So there
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: are some things that you just have to put under
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: the umbrella of that's just baseball. Last night, a player
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: by the name of Tyler Tolbert, who is a two
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: sixty hitter in the minor leagues, got his twelfth consecutive
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: hit in an at bat. That's twelve at bats, twelve hits.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: He tied a one hundred and thirty five year old
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: major league record. Tied it. No one's hit more base
• 37:26
  Speaker 3: hits in more consecutive at bats than what Tyler Tolbert
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: of the Kansas City Royals has. He was brought up
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: only because there were injuries on the roster, and in
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: back to back days he went five for five and
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: then had two hits previous. So twelve consecutive at bats,
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: twelve consecutive base hits from a guy not even known
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: for hitting.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: Wow, that is and now he is.
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: A record holder in the annals of Major League base
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: Now that's that's baseball. No other way to explain it.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: Sometimes it's aggravating and sometimes it's just cool.
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, we'll talk to you tomorrow at six
