  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty two miles per hour and No. One
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: D twenty two point nine, rounding up to one twenty three,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: to the point where when I saw this happen, I
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: was physically worried about the people up there. I'm like,
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: get out of the stadium because if I had somebody
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: there going to die. That is the hardest hit ball
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: in the stackcast era, since it's been tracked since twenty fifteen.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: That is that got out like the camera was like,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: where's the ball? Like it It's one of those things
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: where like in the sandlot where they would have thought
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: the ball got just blown up. So that's pretty crazy.
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: It's the hardest hit ball ever and even beat his
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: previous hardest hit ball, which was one twenty two point four.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Stanton had the prior hardest hit home run at one
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: twenty one point eight when he played for Miami and
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: off Gio Gonzalez in twenty seventeen, so it's been a while.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: He's leading the Pirates with eleven home runs, though the Pirates,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: as we know, are having a tough year. Let's go
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: over to the Cubs and the Cincinnati Reds. They took
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: him down eleven to eight. That is the Cubs in
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: that game stays as you can respacquire homer in the
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: eighth inning require hit two home runs. Nico Hohner and
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: Nico Horner and Pete Crow Armstrong both drove in two
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: runs a piece of the NAL Central Division leaders took
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: their fourth straight in three games. Maguire, it was his
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: first game the big leagues with them, became the third
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: player since nineteen hundred two homer twice in the first
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: game with the Cubs after Earl Web on April twelfth,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: nineteen twenty seven. So it's been one hundred year since
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: anyone did it. No, that's a lie. Then that last
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: one was nineteen fifty eight by Jim Marshall. Marshall, so
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: congratulations to him on that. We will talk a little
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: bit more about him later. Chicago has twelve games with
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: ten or more runs. They are raking though they only
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: have a two game lead over the next team we're
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: going to talk about. Here's the Cardinals. Mason Win homers
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: help the Cardinals beat the Diamebacks four to three for
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: three games. Sleep is the crazy uh catch by Nolan
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: Aeronato because duh, Nolan goes up against the fence catches
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: that it actually got so they he tried to throw
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: it in to get them to not advance, and he
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: got overturned by Tory Lebello because he was technically out
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: of play when he threw the ball, and so it
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: was a dead ball. They got to move up. But
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: making that catch is incredible though it's an Ojiter running catch.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: The Cardinals are now thirty and twenty three and second Division.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: They'd be a playoff team right now. Crazy. Speaking of
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: hard hit homers, by the way, Ronald 'cunya Junior's back
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: doing what only Ronald Lacunya Junior does, hitting a home
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: run in his first pitch. He sees back now Nick
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Pivetta through a ninety three mile an hour riding heater
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: right down like I'm like, dude, you couldn't have said, hey,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: please hit a homer here, we need this, we need
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: this for the game. He couldn't have done that and
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: thrown it more down the middle. So he got it,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: but he got him. He's hit hit two rome runs
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: as he's come back, and he also threw somebody out
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: at third, So Ronald leccunya back. He is a spark
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: plug for those Braves team, which is bad news for
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: the rest of the analyast. Trust me, I know though
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: I was pretty successful agains Ronald just saying, all right,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: a couple more little pieces of news we can hit
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: real quick show. Hey, Otani threw a live VP for
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: the first time in nearly two years. He threw it
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: at City Field because they are taking on the Mets
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: at the moment. Through twenty two pitches, five played appearances
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: to three batters, he's throwing about ninety four to ninety
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: five touch of ninety seven, throwing it nice and easy.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: And he also absolutely buckled him right here with a
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: flip piece Johnson. So I don't know if he's just like, eh,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: I throw I throw Rokies forkball now, So just so
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: you guys, I'll know. But the plan right now is
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: a tiny expects to throw live batting practice once a
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: week moving forward, and it sounds like they're like, yeah,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: we'll get him in the games whenever think about it.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: If he were on any other team, they'd be like,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: oh my god, we need to show heyback, because we're not
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: going to win if we don't get him. But not
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers. They don't need that. They don't need that.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: So great to see him back. I can't wait till
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: he gets back out on the mound, just so he
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: can be more valuable to that team. Alex Brigman unfortunately
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: pulled up with a I believe it's a hamstring strain. Oh,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: they don't know yet. It's either a hamstring. It looked
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: maybe a calf to me, which they are not fun.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: So it looks like he's gonna be out for a while.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: So we got Marsala Meyer, top prospect in the big league,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: with an infield spot open. He made the most sense.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: He's the number six prospect in baseball, part of their future,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: and he hopes to play a role into their pushing
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: the playoffs. Anyways, they thought this was going to happen
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: any given time. So now we have two of the
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: three up in Christian Campbell and Marcela Mayer. So we'll
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: see how he does and Roman Anthony is probably not
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: that far behind. So I'm excited. I'm excited to see
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: what the Red Sox can do with these little what
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: these guys bring to the table and our fine final
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: piece of news. My ex teammate and fellow inductee this
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: summer to the Reading Phillies Double A Hall of Fame.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Darren Ruff is suing the Cincinnati Reds for damages after
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: he suffered a career ending injury while crashing into an
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: uncovered tarp roller at Great American Ballpark two years ago.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: So you can see it here. He crashed into the
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: uncovered thing, which those things are supposed to not have
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: shape like edges that you can run into that way,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: So that was an oversight. So he does have a
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: wight there. It's uh, it's unfortunately. By the way, I
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: just want to put this out here. Jaron Ruff is
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: like maybe the nicest person I've ever met in my
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: entire life. So I don't think this is malicious in
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: any way either. I think you need to do what
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: you need to do. But according to can Play, Rough
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: suffered a permanent substeptual deformities to his knee. Rough went
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: on the sixty day injured list and never played in
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: the major leagues again. Oh, it didn't need to happen.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I wish it didn't happen. Players didn't have to worry
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: abou hidden hazards like that on major league field. I mean,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: he's kind of right, you guys disagree. Crappy way to
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: have your ear end or your career, and especially with
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: if you're out there trying to get ten years in
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: the major leagues, right, and I don't even I don't
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: know if you got there. He got close, but he
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: what you mean
