  Speaker 6: again all of this is things that we will get to.
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: But just off the top, congratulations to Jay Johnson the
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: entire twenty twenty five LSU team. Jay is one of
• 3:16
  Speaker 6: our absolute favorites. He is a grinder. He is somebody
• 3:21
  Speaker 6: that leaves no stone unturned. He is going to make
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: sure every single thing is covered. What a run for him,
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: just personally as a head coach. You said it two
• 3:31
  Speaker 6: of the last three years, you are national champions. And
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: if you do that in today's college baseball with how
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: many programs truly care, how many programs have a desire
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: to be great? Right, It's no longer like the seventies
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: and eighties and when USC is winning championships because nobody
• 3:49
  Speaker 6: else really cares. This is the height of college baseball.
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: It's why you see all these stadiums getting bigger, It's
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: why you see all these games on TV and right
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: now and the hardest time, in my opinion, ever to
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: do it.
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: You are dominating college baseball. Went into it last.
• 4:06
  Speaker 7: Three Yeah, and the time of like just college sports
• 4:09
  Speaker 7: in general, and how hard it is to navigate the
• 4:13
  Speaker 7: nil world, the transfer world, just roster management, and the
• 4:18
  Speaker 7: way he's been able to do it, to come in
• 4:20
  Speaker 7: like this two of the last three years, we're sitting
• 4:23
  Speaker 7: on top and to start what everyone's talking about SEC
• 4:27
  Speaker 7: SEC SEC baseball, which is the greatest conference in college baseball.
• 4:31
  Speaker 7: To start the year out preseason one, and to finish
• 4:34
  Speaker 7: it out, prove all those people right, all those preseason
• 4:38
  Speaker 7: voters are prove them right, win the National cham It's
• 4:41
  Speaker 7: just a testament to what j. Johnson has done. But
• 4:46
  Speaker 7: the coach, he is the man, he is the leader
• 4:48
  Speaker 7: he is to do that, to manage that roster in
• 4:52
  Speaker 7: the off season, to bring in the pieces that you needed,
• 4:55
  Speaker 7: that you said after last year, hey, hey we're missing this.
• 4:58
  Speaker 7: Whether it's a whether it's a talent, whether it the mindset,
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: whatever it is for him to be able to all
• 5:05
  Speaker 7: the games that he played, all the buttons that he
• 5:08
  Speaker 7: pushed were right, and LSU fans, we are lucky to
• 5:13
  Speaker 7: have that man, the greatest coach in college baseball. And
• 5:17
  Speaker 7: if there's anybody out there that wants to argue that,
• 5:21
  Speaker 7: or deny that or think anything different, they're just dumb.
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: And we'll get to the situation yesterday with Coastal and
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: their coach getting kicked out of the game, and I'll
• 5:31
  Speaker 6: go around the room and I'll get everybody's thoughts on that.
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: But one of the things that I want to make
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: sure that we get done, and I think I can
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: speak for everybody here, is don't get it twisted. LSU
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: didn't win a national championship because Coastal's coach got kicked
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: out of the game. So you see a lot of
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: that on social media, right well, I mean the coach didn't. Okay,
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: LSU wins the national championship because LSU didn't have two
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: eras in yesterday's game. They didn't have an error in
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: the first game. You know who did. Coastal LSU won
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: a national championship because they know how to hit with
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: runners in scoring position. You know who doesn't. Coastal LSU
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: won because their starters went deep in the game and dominated.
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: You know who's did not.
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: Coastal LSU used three pitchers in the championship series. That's
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: why they won a national championship, not because the coach
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: came out and argued balls and.
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: Strikes and real quick.
• 6:30
  Speaker 6: I don't want to see anybody get tossed that quick.
• 6:33
  Speaker 6: But it happened, and it does, and we'll break it down.
• 6:36
  Speaker 6: We'll play the video, we'll play the audio, all of that.
• 6:39
  Speaker 6: It didn't matter if Joe Tory was out there coach
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: in Coastal Carolina. They weren't going to win this series.
• 6:48
  Speaker 6: LSU did everything you had to do. And for you
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: young guys, Joe Tory Yankees had some success. LSU did
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: everything they had to do to go win a national championship.
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: They came up with every timely hit. They came up
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: with every pitch that you had to make. They came
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: up with every play that you had to make in
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: the field. Again, a championship series against a team that
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: had not won or sorry, had not lost in twenty
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: six straight games, and you use three pitchers the entire
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: time LSU dominated.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: The score line might not even tell the full story.
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: Every time that something had to happen, it happened because
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: LSU made it happen.
• 7:33
  Speaker 7: Yeah, the three pitchers to me is like such stunning.
• 7:38
  Speaker 7: It's not even stab it's just like a fact that
• 7:40
  Speaker 7: it like that was an incredible performance by those boys
• 7:44
  Speaker 7: to go out there and have such nasty stuff and
• 7:48
  Speaker 7: to shut down a team like you said, that had
• 7:49
  Speaker 7: won twenty six in a row, that had dominated their
• 7:52
  Speaker 7: half of the bracket leading.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Up to this championship series.
• 7:55
  Speaker 7: But what's to me what was so impressive about this
• 7:58
  Speaker 7: this team not only the townland and the pitching and
• 8:01
  Speaker 7: the defense, but the mindset, the competitiveness, the the grip
• 8:06
  Speaker 7: that everybody showed. Guys that had been struggling throughout this
• 8:13
  Speaker 7: College World Series. There's times that got struggled but showed
• 8:16
  Speaker 7: up when it mattered. You talk about earlier, you know,
• 8:20
  Speaker 7: Jerry Jones striking out five times versus Arkansas, then coming
• 8:23
  Speaker 7: up huge. We don't get to this point without him
• 8:26
  Speaker 7: coming up and we.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Have headphones employed. There my bad. Last night.
• 8:31
  Speaker 7: Dickinson singles and comes around, has a great sacrifice. But
• 8:35
  Speaker 7: Stanfield he gets a gets a single to the left field.
• 8:39
  Speaker 7: Uh braswell, who didn't hit great, but he played his
• 8:41
  Speaker 7: ass off at third base.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, that guy.
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: Anybody he got to hit though, there we go. I
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: didn't want him to go over. He did get a hit.
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: Hell a sacrifice bunt too, he did.
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: He did what he had to do in certain moments,
• 8:54
  Speaker 6: and I'm just so glad he got a hit. So
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: he'll have that forever. He got a hit in the
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: College World Series, but I got the defense in general.
• 9:01
  Speaker 7: God lsu Olempics, left side of the infield, good luck
• 9:04
  Speaker 7: kitting it there. It was incredible. Yeah, those guys. And
• 9:07
  Speaker 7: then then of course you got been dominant all year.
• 9:11
  Speaker 7: Ethan Fry struggled this whole College World Series. Came up
• 9:14
  Speaker 7: huge yesterday he did. He ripped one. I mean, impossible
• 9:19
  Speaker 7: to judge that thing. One hundred and fourteen off the bat.
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: I know that was one hundred and fourteen off the bat.
• 9:25
  Speaker 6: In the home run Coastal it was ninety three off
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: the bat, was it really?
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 9:28
  Speaker 6: Just the I mean, credit to you. He got it
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: up in that win, a little back spin on it.
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: It just kept going and going and going. It's funny
• 9:34
  Speaker 6: like Curry, I thought he had like a beat on
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: the whole time. He's like, I've had a room that
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: I got to go make a play.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: That wind was whipped in.
• 9:43
  Speaker 6: Yesterday again, like in the broadcast, hated like that's the
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: one place you could have hit the baseball where you
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: would probably got it out of the stadium and been
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: aided by the wind. Right all right, Jacob Tatee, I
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: know obviously LSU people behind the glass here as well.
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: You gotta have thoughts.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: So we're watching the game yesterday, right, and everyone's, like
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: you mentioned, everyone's going to talk about, oh well, Kevin
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: Chanhal got thrown out of the game, whatever, Who cares.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: I'm looking at early in the fourth inning, and you know,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Victoria's watching the game next to me, She's like, why
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: is the pitcher stopping the game. I'm like, well, his
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: headset's messed up. To me, that was the turning point
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: of the game. And you may look at say, okay, well,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: he's used to getting the headset like the call in
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: his ear. Now he's looking at it written down on
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: the watch, like what's the big deal? To me, it
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: changes everything because you're used to having that voice in
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: your head.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: Now you don't have it.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: And I had wrote it down because I was like,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: let me, let me watch the next four batters. After
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: he took the headset off, walk single to left center,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: hit by pitch single to left center, he was pulled
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: and that was the four run inning that LSU gave up.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: I mean to me, that was the turning point.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: And again you could say, okay, well he should be
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: able to overcome that I understand that. But when you
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: hear a voice talking to you, walking you through what's
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: going on, and you don't have it anymore, and all
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: you hear is the crowd, like that changes everything. And
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: like to me, I'm telling Victoria, I'm like, he's stolen
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: because he doesn't know what to do, Like he's out
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: of his rhythm.
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: He can't believe it was he was off his mark
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: the entire game.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Well, the first inning he's calling out George got.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: Into his head real quick about stealing.
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: You know, his signs out of his grip, out of
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: his glove, which is basically signs stealing, is completely.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Right in front of you.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Probably couldn't see the signs inside your glove, like calm down, Morrison.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: But no, like to your point, he was he was
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: rattled to star. But when that happened right at the
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: beginning of the fourth inning, like that's when you kind
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: of knew, like okay, like if LSU can can hold
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: onto this thing, they got this in the bag. Because
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: that was the shortest outing of the year, that was
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: the most runs he had given up too. Like you
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: chased him out of that game early in the fourth inning.
• 11:47
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I'd like to get in a little bit to
• 11:48
  Speaker 7: the mindset of that at some point today of you know,
• 11:51
  Speaker 7: I agreed, I agree with the one hundred percent. To me,
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: his communications and device going down in the way he
• 11:58
  Speaker 7: handled that is a bigger deal than.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: An equal of a big.
• 12:05
  Speaker 7: Deal like as a coach getting thrown out like yeah,
• 12:07
  Speaker 7: and at that point the head coach probably would have
• 12:10
  Speaker 7: really helped that situation like kind of calm it down
• 12:13
  Speaker 7: and cool it down like that. When you have a thrower,
• 12:17
  Speaker 7: it's all about it's about rhythm and getting into the zone.
• 12:19
  Speaker 7: It's just like a quarterback plane, like when you talk
• 12:22
  Speaker 7: about the zone, getting in that spot where all you
• 12:25
  Speaker 7: see is is is the defense. All you see is
• 12:27
  Speaker 7: this and that. Well the pictures, it's the same thing.
• 12:30
  Speaker 7: Like when you're getting a rhythm and feeling it, you
• 12:32
  Speaker 7: got to flow with that momentum. And that was a
• 12:34
  Speaker 7: momentum killer, an absolute momentum killer, having those communications go down.
• 12:38
  Speaker 7: And I couldn't think of anything worse if I'm a
• 12:40
  Speaker 7: starting pitcher in a national championship then having that happen.
• 12:45
  Speaker 7: But you could also tell that they hadn't worked on
• 12:47
  Speaker 7: what we're gonna do, what's the backup plan? Yeah, because
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: you're working on. Like you in football, you have the
• 12:52
  Speaker 7: you have the speaker and the quarterback and the Mike
• 12:54
  Speaker 7: linebacker's helmet. You work all the time on what happens
• 12:58
  Speaker 7: if that communication device goes down. We can't be one
• 13:00
  Speaker 7: hundred percent relying on it. We have to be able
• 13:02
  Speaker 7: to function without this, right, Yeah, you got to be
• 13:04
  Speaker 7: able to handle every situation. They promise you that.
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: Jay Johnson has every situation ready to go, but so
• 13:10
  Speaker 6: do his assistance. And hey, let's not act like Coastal
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: Carolina's head coach had to leave the premises.
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: Right, he's in the locker room. He was texting, Hey, say,
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: but hey, what do we do here? You want to pinchhit?
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: Got it all right?
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: Let's not act like he like he couldn't give them information.
• 13:27
  Speaker 7: He definitely had the old cellular device out, I mean
• 13:30
  Speaker 7: texting a little bit.
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: Look, things happen, they do, Okay, how do you deal
• 13:35
  Speaker 6: with things when they happen? Now, that delay could have
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: been something that LSU could have been like, oh man,
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: we were in a rhythm. Now we're at a rhythm.
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: And no, they didn't care. They went out there and
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: they handle business. You know, they didn't allow a delay
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: because of a PitchCom to get them off what their
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: game plan was. LSU was ready for every situation. That
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: was the most impressive thing to me. It didn't matter what,
• 13:58
  Speaker 6: it didn't matter who was called upon. To your point earlier, Matt,
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: they made it happen when it had to happen every
• 14:04
  Speaker 6: single time in this postseason.
• 14:08
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I think I think for me, the two, I
• 14:10
  Speaker 8: mean it's pretty obvious, but Iensen and Anderson, you know,
• 14:15
  Speaker 8: Anderson probably maybe maybe the best best game for an
• 14:18
  Speaker 8: LSU pitcher in the College World Series ever.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: But but it for for me, it.
• 14:23
  Speaker 8: Was they were able to still go out there and
• 14:27
  Speaker 8: pitch so well even when they didn't have maybe their
• 14:29
  Speaker 8: best stuff. I mean, Anderson's stuff was still good. He
• 14:32
  Speaker 8: had he still had you know, ten strikeouts, but Ainstin
• 14:35
  Speaker 8: gave up seven hits and six and a third and
• 14:37
  Speaker 8: he still got nine strikeouts.
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: He still got through.
• 14:40
  Speaker 8: He he had traffic almost every inning, but he still
• 14:43
  Speaker 8: managed to limit the damage for the most part and
• 14:46
  Speaker 8: still had a really good game. And Anderson with five walks,
• 14:49
  Speaker 8: which was which was really uncharacteristic.
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: But both those.
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: Guys still showed up.
• 14:53
  Speaker 8: And you you you hold Coastal Carolina to three runs
• 14:56
  Speaker 8: in two games, which uh, you know, LSU didn't have
• 14:59
  Speaker 8: to do on offense in either the games. I mean
• 15:01
  Speaker 8: they had ten hits in this one. But still I
• 15:04
  Speaker 8: think that for me that was that was the really
• 15:08
  Speaker 8: the thing that stood out to me the most.
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: No, it's actually a good point because they did not
• 15:13
  Speaker 6: have you know, what we have seen all season long
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: as far as maybe the cleanest stuff, right, and maybe
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: the quickest innings, but still found a way to dominate.
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: Like even Kate Anderson he almost doubled his highest walk
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: total out of the year, right, I mean he has
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: five threes, the highest, but he still found a way
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: to grind through it and go the complete game distance
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: in the College World Series final, and Coastal's runs came
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: on home runs, which it hadn't hit any home runs
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: to that point. So like, you know, sure the home
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: runs still count, but you took Coastal out of what
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: they do. Like Coastal is all about, like manufacturing runs
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: and finding a way and button guys over and hitting
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: it the other way and going long and in bat
• 15:58
  Speaker 6: to get your pitch count up.
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: They are pesky, and you didn't allow them to be pesky.
• 16:03
  Speaker 7: You know, it all goes back to it all goes
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: back to pitching and defense, right they. I don't remember
• 16:09
  Speaker 7: who it was, either Ronaldo last week or Ben McDonald.
• 16:13
  Speaker 7: We asked a question like, what's the What changes the
• 16:16
  Speaker 7: mindset of a pitcher when you have a really good
• 16:18
  Speaker 7: defense behind you, right, you don't always have to be
• 16:22
  Speaker 7: focused on on striking.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: Guys out, making them with make them get it in play. Right.
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 16:27
  Speaker 7: Now, I think with Asin yesterday, it looked like, I mean,
• 16:29
  Speaker 7: it looked like to me he had great stuff. He
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: gave up some hiss, but it really did, especially on
• 16:34
  Speaker 7: the home right. It really just looked like, you know,
• 16:36
  Speaker 7: he has that great breaking ball. Man, it's got so
• 16:38
  Speaker 7: much job. It looks like they just guessed right a
• 16:39
  Speaker 7: couple of times on the pitches, but they did get
• 16:42
  Speaker 7: a hit.
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: Then he'd come back and his breaking ball was definitely
• 16:47
  Speaker 6: on par yesterday for sure.
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure, it just looked like they made the
• 16:50
  Speaker 7: right guess. They picked the pitch they you know, based
• 16:52
  Speaker 7: on the count or whatever. Maybe they were still in signals,
• 16:55
  Speaker 7: who knows, But now it's it's just the mindset and
• 17:01
  Speaker 7: even k I mean, they we have to make some
• 17:03
  Speaker 7: good defensive I like after.
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: The game, Cade's being interviewed.
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: He's like, you know, my defense played behind me, and
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: you know, thankful for them because I didn't strike a
• 17:10
  Speaker 6: lot of guys out today.
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: But he was he meant it like he meant every
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: word of it. I'm like, we got ten like he
• 17:16
  Speaker 5: got ten?
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: Right, we had double digit strikeouts in the Cultural Series finalit.
• 17:22
  Speaker 6: He's like, how do you get lost strikeouts today?
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, that's only a little over one per inting.
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: Like, all right, you got you got double digit.
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: There's there's a lot of people that are out there pitching,
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: you know, and people making money.
• 17:35
  Speaker 5: They don't have many of those ten strikeout games.
• 17:37
  Speaker 7: And I'd like to talk about this. It's at some
• 17:38
  Speaker 7: point today I asked Taylor about it. But like when
• 17:41
  Speaker 7: we came in this morning, I said, man, I'm watching
• 17:43
  Speaker 7: Kate Anderson pitch and he's like, his stats are great,
• 17:47
  Speaker 7: his stuff is great, and I'm looking at him like.
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Man, what makes this guy so good?
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: He's not like a dominating like Presdent, like a big
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: guy doesn't have the one hundred mile an hour like
• 17:59
  Speaker 7: when you watch a couple years ago, you watch Paul Skins,
• 18:01
  Speaker 7: like you just it jumped out of them. Yeah, it
• 18:03
  Speaker 7: jumped out of the TV screen. Like what makes him
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: so good? Chase Shortes kind of has that a little
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: bit too, like you get it, but like what makes
• 18:10
  Speaker 7: Kane Anderson so good and so tough to hit? I'd
• 18:13
  Speaker 7: like to I'd like to jump into that a little
• 18:14
  Speaker 7: bit because I can't. It's kind of like an open discussion.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: I don't really know what it is.
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah, but he has maybe played himself into being the
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: top overall pick. He has certainly played himself into being
• 18:25
  Speaker 6: a top ten Garrett Like that's guaranteed. I'd put a
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: lot of money, a lot of doll hairs on top
• 18:32
  Speaker 6: five pick. I mean, he has done himself a great
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: service here in this season to just continue to elevate,
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: continue to be the guy that you were hoping he
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: could be, and then some and look, so many performances
• 18:47
  Speaker 6: to talk about, so many different branches on this tree.
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: Will break down all the coaching injections and what happened
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: and also Lshu's coach showing great restraint in game number one,
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: and that's how you would like to see that situation handle.
• 19:03
  Speaker 6: Because Jay Johnson got to continue to coach the game
• 19:06
  Speaker 6: and the next game, even though he really wanted to
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: go ask a question to the umpire.
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: So look, stay locked in.
• 19:14
  Speaker 6: I promise we are going to cover every single angle
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: of LSU's eighth national championship, and we'll do it right
• 19:21

• 22:07
  Speaker 7: Go hydrate baby.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: So, one of my favorite things about this team in
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: the way that they were all kind of put together.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 22:17
  Speaker 6: You might not have as many superstars as you had
• 22:20
  Speaker 6: in twenty twenty three.
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: Like twenty twenty three that was like a rare combination
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: of stars.
• 22:26
  Speaker 6: Okay, you had the number one and number two picks
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: Paul Skeens and Dylan Cruz, but you also had a
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: guy like Tommy Tanks Tommy White, who had a nickname
• 22:35
  Speaker 6: where you said Tommy Tanks and the entire country knew
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: who you were talking about. And like we could go
• 22:39
  Speaker 6: down a list of the stars that were on that team.
• 22:42
  Speaker 6: This seems a little bit different now. They got guys
• 22:45
  Speaker 6: Steven Milam, Derek Uriel, Kad Anderson that.
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: Have star potential are going to play baseball for a
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: long time.
• 22:54
  Speaker 6: But like that twenty three team, I mean, everybody in
• 22:56
  Speaker 6: college baseball when you said a last name, when you
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: you could even probably say, Paul Della. They knew exactly
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: who you were talking about. I love that this team
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: was different than that team, and I love that you
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: you had pieces Ethan Fry. It never looked like Eighthan
• 23:11
  Speaker 6: Fry was gonna play here. He had injuries, you know,
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: had some tough times here and there, but he sticks
• 23:18
  Speaker 6: with it. He didn't take his ball and go home. No,
• 23:21
  Speaker 6: he wants to play for LSU. Grew up in Louisiana,
• 23:24
  Speaker 6: so he stays. He doesn't play, you know, for multiple years.
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: He gets his opportunity and he's hitting second for this
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: team at the end of the year and gets three
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: hits when it matters the most. You look at a
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: Luis Hernandez coming from Indiana State, Right, he ain't coming
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: from Tennessee, He ain't coming from Mississippi State.
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 23:48
  Speaker 6: He worked his way through the mid major ranks to
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: get to LSU. Daniel Dickinson, right, didn't have a scholarship
• 23:56
  Speaker 6: out of high school. Right, doesn't have a lot of options.
• 23:59
  Speaker 6: Walks on, ends up at Utah Valley and then finds
• 24:03
  Speaker 6: his way to LSU. The standard of college baseball and
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: as your starting second baseman plays incredible lights out defense
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: the entire year, handles the bat incredibly well, and oh yeah,
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: finishes it with a broken bone in his hand and
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: nobody knows because he didn't care.
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: He just wanted to go win.
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: Like we could go over five six other guys on
• 24:27
  Speaker 6: the team that have a very similar story to those guys.
• 24:31
  Speaker 6: And look, there's nothing wrong with winning it the way
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: twenty three did with all the Stars, because we've seen
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: teams that have been dream teams air quotes and hadn't
• 24:39
  Speaker 6: won anything. That team finished it. That's impressive in its
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: own right. But also this team got a little bit
• 24:45
  Speaker 6: of my favorite tagline, too gritty to be pretty. All
• 24:48
  Speaker 6: they cared about was when the situation was in front
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: of them that they found a way. And it wasn't
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: always pretty, but it always got done.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: I can tell you. I just.
• 24:59
  Speaker 7: I'm thankful for you right now because you just taught
• 25:01
  Speaker 7: me a few things about this team. Didn't know where
• 25:03
  Speaker 7: these guys came from.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: It is. It's wildly impressive. Right, Hey, what are you
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: laughing at? Taylor? Relax over there?
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: Hey, Hey, okay, but just so.
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: Right though, Like you don't win eight national championships by
• 25:15
  Speaker 7: doing it just one way, and like you. If you're
• 25:18
  Speaker 7: gonna get like sensitive and annoyed about me, like just
• 25:21
  Speaker 7: talking about how great J is all day, you might
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: as well tune off now because that's just the testament
• 25:26
  Speaker 7: to how good he is is. There's not one way.
• 25:29
  Speaker 7: It's not like his way or the highway. Let me
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: figure out where the needs are. I mean, he walked
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: into like a gold mine with like you said in
• 25:38
  Speaker 7: twenty twenty three, I mean, that's just talent, talent, talent,
• 25:42
  Speaker 7: and like, yeah, you take it. It's like twenty nineteen
• 25:45
  Speaker 7: LSU football, right, yeah, yeah, you take that talent, you
• 25:48
  Speaker 7: don't apologize for it, and you go out there and
• 25:49
  Speaker 7: do what you're supposed to do. But guess what, I
• 25:52
  Speaker 7: can also win without those number one and two picks
• 25:56
  Speaker 7: in the draft, right right, We're gonna do it the
• 25:57
  Speaker 7: right way. Like I said, the things he did in
• 25:59
  Speaker 7: the offseason to bring those guys in to not just
• 26:02
  Speaker 7: look at like the top guys.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: From Tennessee or Vanderbilt for what, Lake Forest wherever.
• 26:07
  Speaker 7: It is like, let's go look and find a guy
• 26:09
  Speaker 7: that fits with what we do, fills in need, and
• 26:15
  Speaker 7: every button that he pushed, every move that he made,
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: proved to be right and this team. If you're a
• 26:19
  Speaker 7: golfer out there, you kind of know, like the term
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: at ham and egg means a little bit. It's when
• 26:26
  Speaker 7: you're on a team and if one guy struggling the.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: Other guy, the other guy steps up and makes a shot.
• 26:31
  Speaker 7: And then a couple holes later that that guy struggling
• 26:34
  Speaker 7: the other guy makes a shot. That's what this team
• 26:36
  Speaker 7: was is there's not at one point. I mean they
• 26:39
  Speaker 7: won eight straight games to win the National championship since
• 26:43
  Speaker 7: they lost the game two versus Little Rock. Yeah, they
• 26:45
  Speaker 7: won eight straight games. So and it wasn't just one
• 26:48
  Speaker 7: guy that was dominant, dominant, dominant, dominant, like, they all
• 26:51
  Speaker 7: found a way to step up and make a big hit,
• 26:54
  Speaker 7: make a big defensive.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: Play, make a pitch, whatever.
• 26:56
  Speaker 7: It was a full complete from top to bottom, one
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: through nine. DH's coming in in the sixth City and
• 27:03
  Speaker 7: getting a big hit, Jake Brown like. It was everything
• 27:07
  Speaker 7: that you that you want, everything that is right about sports,
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: everything that is good about sports and college baseball and
• 27:15
  Speaker 7: college sports in general. A team coming together that wasn't
• 27:19
  Speaker 7: together three hundred and sixty five days ago, and under
• 27:25
  Speaker 7: the leadership of Jay Johnson, just finding a way to
• 27:28
  Speaker 7: be gritty to be winners and now put a ring
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: on it.
• 27:34
  Speaker 6: And also somebody I left out there that I want
• 27:36
  Speaker 6: to for sure highlight Chris Stanfield. He did come from
• 27:42
  Speaker 6: the big program, but I remember when he came out
• 27:45
  Speaker 6: of the portal. I remember doing shows me and Toe
• 27:47
  Speaker 6: you wat sitting here like okay, okay, well all right.
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: It was like that's it, all right, because you know,
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: the numbers weren't gonna blow you away, but ls, you
• 27:56
  Speaker 6: probably don't win a national championship if they don't have
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: that kind of hit there at the bottom of the lineup.
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: All season long, you never felt like, oh man, here
• 28:04
  Speaker 6: comes seven eight nine, Here comes seven eight nine in
• 28:06
  Speaker 6: the line up, go ahead and turn it over because
• 28:09
  Speaker 6: you had a double lead off. You had somebody that
• 28:11
  Speaker 6: handled the bat incredibly well. For a long portion of
• 28:14
  Speaker 6: the SEC season. He had the best batting average in
• 28:16
  Speaker 6: conference play, and when you needed him the most, yesterday,
• 28:21
  Speaker 6: he came up with the hit that kind of put
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: everything away, that gave l s U the ultimate faith
• 28:27
  Speaker 6: and took all the win out of Coastal.
• 28:28
  Speaker 7: Sales kind of let me, let me just let me
• 28:31
  Speaker 7: paint a picture on that real quick, yes yesterday. So
• 28:35
  Speaker 7: we go to the little uh I can't remember what
• 28:39
  Speaker 7: it's called. It's a little LSU spirit shop. We wanted
• 28:41
  Speaker 7: to get some in Perkins Row. Anybody, anybody Perkins R
• 28:48

• 28:50

• 29:21
  Speaker 5: And might be something we dabble in.

  Speaker 7: She's like, I don't think Stanfield's printed. Like, they didn't
• 30:02
  Speaker 7: make the Stanfield card, right, So we got these two cards,
• 30:05
  Speaker 7: but like look just to your point, yeah, they didn't
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: make they made it off all the players on the team.
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: I don't think that. Now she might have been wrong.
• 30:13
  Speaker 7: Obviously we didn't pull it and we couldn't find it
• 30:16
  Speaker 7: in like the list of the people that.
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: Were putting in. If you can't find it, it's probably
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: not there.
• 30:21
  Speaker 6: You're pretty good at finding those cards checklists.
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: Anyway.
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: That's the end of my point, right there is like
• 30:31
  Speaker 7: the guy that comes up is before the season when
• 30:33
  Speaker 7: they printed these things.
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they had no clue.
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and to what his standard had been, he had
• 30:38
  Speaker 6: been struggling a little bit at the plate. And again
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: it was one hit yesterday, but it was the hit.
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: It drives in two runs. He scores himself. And it's
• 30:47
  Speaker 6: just another story on this team of guys that just
• 30:51
  Speaker 6: found a way to LSU. And credit to Jay Johnson
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: and the staff for and I understand that Daniel Digginson
• 30:58
  Speaker 6: was highly rated in the transfer portal, Luis Hernandez was
• 31:01
  Speaker 6: highly rated, but still like their path to get to LSU.
• 31:05
  Speaker 6: And look, when you're going from Utah Valley to LSU
• 31:09
  Speaker 6: and the SEC, right, that doesn't always translate, right. We
• 31:14
  Speaker 6: talk about in football all the time, like you're a
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: quarterback that dominated the G five level and then you
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: go to a Big ten school and it's like where'd
• 31:20
  Speaker 6: that guy go?
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: Right, It's not easy. It's a different game.
• 31:25
  Speaker 6: There might have been a pitcher, one pitcher maybe two
• 31:27
  Speaker 6: at Utah Valley that has the same like SEC stuff
• 31:32
  Speaker 6: that you see every pitcher, starter, reliever does not matter.
• 31:35
  Speaker 6: So you still have to get that done. And again
• 31:38
  Speaker 6: finding out he did it with a broken bone in
• 31:40
  Speaker 6: his hand. I already loved the kid. I mean all
• 31:44
  Speaker 6: the swag Ferry Bond's ear ring, you're gonna wear that
• 31:47
  Speaker 6: you better pull it off. He does, Taylor, don't give
• 31:49
  Speaker 6: me that look. Don't give me that look. You ain't
• 31:52
  Speaker 6: going out there with a broken hand.
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: I'm not going out there. Well, he did it, and
• 31:57
  Speaker 5: back then you're.
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: Probably not even showing it up to work.
• 31:59
  Speaker 6: But a nah, I can't type today. Well he went
• 32:03
  Speaker 6: out there and turned a double play to finish the season.
• 32:05
  Speaker 6: Bo take that and his dang earing.
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: Well to your point about Dickinson, I mean Matt were
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: talking before the show, and Matt's like, you know, like
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: all the players I dove into, he's like Dickets. That's
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: kind of the guy I know the least about. And
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: I'm like, it's because he's so consistent. Right, Like you
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: may say, okay, he's not coming up with the walk
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: off HiT's like Jerry Jones. But I mean, this is
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: a guy that's bad at what three hundred and three
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: twenty like covered in there the entire season. He went
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: from the two hole, he went to the seven hole.
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: He was good regardless of where he was, like dicketson
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: an underrated piece on this team.
• 32:37
  Speaker 7: I mean, it's nice for me to say I actually
• 32:40
  Speaker 7: said that. He's a guy I can't remember his name
• 32:42
  Speaker 7: he's hat the one guy just good.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: I got it.
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: It's like literally the like it's double d it's super easy.
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: What super hard? I guess.
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: I know we got to.
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: Carve out some some space for names in that brainy years.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: I got the rest of them. Don't look at me
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: like that, dude.
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: Just because it comes to your head doesn't mean you
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: have to say it either. You can keep that one.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: I need to.
• 33:09
  Speaker 7: Filter the old noggin every now. Fans in the huddle, Taylor,
• 33:12
  Speaker 7: he says, how frustrated do you get.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: Every time I sit here and I moved the mic?
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Well, that's what I mentioned, Like I think he maybe
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: thinks I'm an audio. It was like I'm worried about
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: the cameras. It was like, you do move a lot,
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: so I'm having to adjust the camera a lot. I
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: don't care about the mic. That's that's That's the Beck's Department.
• 33:26
  Speaker 6: Are the best part is when Matt's getting really into
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: a point and he's.
• 33:28
  Speaker 7: Like he does do that, which I think, can we
• 33:32
  Speaker 7: get a padded table? This triangle table is kind of
• 33:36
  Speaker 7: noisy when every time I move the mic.
• 33:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, I can hear it too, So listeners, when
• 33:44
  Speaker 6: we come back we will break down the injections. We'll
• 33:48
  Speaker 6: break down what happened there in the first inning in
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: yesterday's game. I know there's a lot of thoughts a
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: lot of people out there, certainly if you were not
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: hoping that LSU won the game, that you know, maybe
• 34:00
  Speaker 6: talked about how much it actually impacted the game when
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: the guy was still calling the shots.
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: It didn't matter.
• 34:06
  Speaker 6: Like I said earlier, Joe Toy, even my guy Bobby
• 34:09
  Speaker 6: Cox could have been managing the game, it would not
• 34:11
  Speaker 6: have mattered. And we'll break it all down when we
• 34:13

• 35:42
  Speaker 9: All right, welcome back gain OTB here on this Monday morning,
• 35:48
  Speaker 9: continuing to celebrate LSU's eighth national championship as they take
• 35:53
  Speaker 9: down Coastal Carolina to a que There for Coastal against LSU.
• 35:59
  Speaker 6: LSU pushes all all the right buttons makes every single
• 36:01
  Speaker 6: play the batter's box on the mound on the field. Truly,
• 36:07
  Speaker 6: truly an impressive run from LSU after losing, you know,
• 36:11
  Speaker 6: in the regional game six to Little Rock. In fact,
• 36:17
  Speaker 6: it's the only postseason game I went to. But there
• 36:24
  Speaker 6: was a lot of people thought, maybe, okay, well, I mean,
• 36:25
  Speaker 6: you're losing a little roy It just shows how hot
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: that Little Rock team got. I mean, they were putting
• 36:29
  Speaker 6: up football scores against everybody else in the regional.
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: But they put their head down, they go to work,
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: they finish it.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: So those little as almost beat us.
• 36:37
  Speaker 6: They were scrappy, a little bunch, scrappy, a little bunch there.
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: You have more problems with Little Rock than you did Arkansas.
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. It faced Arkansas.
• 36:46
  Speaker 6: So here is one of the things that's certainly going
• 36:50
  Speaker 6: to be talked about for the next couple of days.
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: Coastal Carolina's head coach getting tossed first base coach getting
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: tossed out of the game yesterday in the bottom of
• 36:59
  Speaker 6: the first.
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: Dye game started in the SEC. He gave up a
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: total of tenor and runs and struck out seventy five.
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: Alexander Off rode out and we're good, no good, and.
• 37:13
  Speaker 10: That's what you're thinking right there, Rabie. Pick a breaking
• 37:16
  Speaker 10: ball count and be aggressive. And that's exactly what Alexander
• 37:21
  Speaker 10: does right here. Not the best of jumps, but if
• 37:23
  Speaker 10: you're picking a breaking ball, you've got a little bore margin,
• 37:26
  Speaker 10: and Alexander steals that one easy on a throw inside
• 37:30
  Speaker 10: the back.
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: Well, with ians in about every count is potentially a
• 37:33
  Speaker 5: breaking ball count.
• 37:34
  Speaker 6: He throws that curveball the slider roughly fifty percent of
• 37:37
  Speaker 6: the time.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: Oh my goodness. He chose Kevin Schnall out of the game.
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: Wow.
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: In the bottom of the first inning, the home played
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: umpire throws Kevin Schnall out of this game, and down
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: goes an umpire who had come to the middle of face.
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: I believe, guys, this had to do what happened at
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: the end of the top of the first with the
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: third base coach for LSU. This seemed to stem from
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: the first base coach. And then Schnall remarkably gets thrown
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: out of the game a College World Series Game two
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: in the bottom of the first time.
• 38:31
  Speaker 10: Well, and I didn't even see that building, guys, Like
• 38:33
  Speaker 10: It's one pitch and next thing you know, Schnall's out
• 38:35
  Speaker 10: out of the door.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 38:38
  Speaker 6: So that was how it all played out, and it
• 38:41
  Speaker 6: was Coastal's first base coach that started to question balls
• 38:46
  Speaker 6: and strikes and the umpire right, he's like basically, hey,
• 38:50
  Speaker 6: come get your boy right. He got settled down, he's
• 38:53
  Speaker 6: got a warning. And then that's when schnaw came out
• 38:57
  Speaker 6: for what for what? And you can tell the I
• 39:00
  Speaker 6: was telling him the entire time, go back to the dugout,
• 39:02
  Speaker 6: go back to that.
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: Was it too quick for me in that scenario that situation, Yes,
• 39:08
  Speaker 6: it was like I just I don't I don't want
• 39:12
  Speaker 6: to see it happen in that game. Now, in a
• 39:14
  Speaker 6: regular season game, that was like everything that you can't
• 39:19
  Speaker 6: do to an umpire to stay into the game. The
• 39:23
  Speaker 6: initial questioning okay, and then you're going towards him. He
• 39:27
  Speaker 6: tells you to get back three or four times, you don't.
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: And then once you say, because you've missed three, that's
• 39:33
  Speaker 6: questioning balls and strikes. That's going to get you wrung
• 39:35
  Speaker 6: every single time. Again for me, I don't want to
• 39:39
  Speaker 6: see it happen. Certainly in a national championship game. That's
• 39:42
  Speaker 6: what the umpire saw. That's what the umpire called him for.
• 39:46
  Speaker 6: And then it, you know, turned into kind of a
• 39:48
  Speaker 6: circus there with the umpire tripping and it looking like
• 39:52
  Speaker 6: he got bumped at first and he didn't get bumped,
• 39:54
  Speaker 6: and so.
• 39:55
  Speaker 7: Uh and like watching the game too, it's because you
• 39:58
  Speaker 7: didn't You didn't have a clip or audio or we
• 40:01
  Speaker 7: had no idea was happening. So like the immediate reaction
• 40:04
  Speaker 7: obviously is like what is the imp doing? Like this
• 40:07
  Speaker 7: is in the ump show, is a little man center
• 40:09
  Speaker 7: whatever it is, Like, what is happening right now? And
• 40:12
  Speaker 7: then especially like you know, my wife and kids are like, hey,
• 40:15
  Speaker 7: what's happening to dad? You know, of course I didn't
• 40:16
  Speaker 7: know what's happening, but uh, I get it's what is
• 40:20
  Speaker 7: what's causing this? And then they explain it. The announcers
• 40:22
  Speaker 7: explain it. Whether this is right or wrong, whether this
• 40:25
  Speaker 7: is the rules, I don't know, but per the announcer
• 40:28
  Speaker 7: in the game, it's your issue to warning you cannot
• 40:31
  Speaker 7: come out of the dugout and argue a call no,
• 40:35
  Speaker 7: and if you continue to argue pro longer and then
• 40:37
  Speaker 7: you get two more.
• 40:37
  Speaker 6: Right, yeah, and if you question balls and strikes like that.
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: So the first base coach was questioning that that's what
• 40:43
  Speaker 6: he got the warning for and then Shanaw comes out
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: for what for what right? But the umpire of the
• 40:48
  Speaker 6: entire time saying go back in, go back in, go
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: back in, and he doesn't. Then when he says, because
• 40:54
  Speaker 6: you've missed three calls again, that's always going to get
• 40:57
  Speaker 6: you tossed out of a game.
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: Now, the situation being a National Championship game, I don't.
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: I don't like. I don't love to see it.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: I don't is that cause for ejections, I get it, but.
• 41:10
  Speaker 5: I know you're a little new to baseball.
• 41:11
  Speaker 6: Umpires in baseball at and they think people paid to
• 41:15
  Speaker 6: see them.
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: It's about them. I get it.
• 41:17
  Speaker 7: But like a coach coming out and arguing for his
• 41:20
  Speaker 7: guys is kind of part of baseball, right, that's I.
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Think telling him to go back and not only did
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: he go back, he came closer. But like to Jake's point,
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: like I don't like it in the National Championship, But
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: at the same time, the rules don't go out the
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: window because it's National Championships, like themps are gonna I
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: mean kind of.
• 41:37
  Speaker 5: Three or four one.
• 41:38
  Speaker 6: Yeah, like trying to get him back into the dug out.
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: I never defended all, but they're kind of in a
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: tough spot there, like what do you do?
• 41:44
  Speaker 6: And it was because I think when you keep coming
• 41:48
  Speaker 6: towards the umpire, that's gonna you know, that's gonna be
• 41:51
  Speaker 6: something that he notices. And then once you call out
• 41:53
  Speaker 6: how many pitches you think he's missed? Now, remember when
• 41:57
  Speaker 6: Daniel Dickinson got you know, hit by the baseball, They
• 42:01
  Speaker 6: said he leaned into it with his elbow, which, by
• 42:03
  Speaker 6: the way, like the broadcast was like.
• 42:04
  Speaker 5: Well, actually to the letter of the law.
• 42:06
  Speaker 6: It's like, but you didn't say that when the coach
• 42:10
  Speaker 6: got tossed. But that's neither here nor there. That's just
• 42:12
  Speaker 6: something I picked on. I'm like, well, you said in
• 42:15
  Speaker 6: that situation to the letter of law. But it's like,
• 42:17
  Speaker 6: but you didn't in the first one. So Jay Johnson
• 42:19
  Speaker 6: could have had every opportunity to be pretty mad. I
• 42:22
  Speaker 6: was pretty mad. Like it's ball four, Like, what do
• 42:24
  Speaker 6: you think he's trying to lean into? He's gonna get
• 42:26
  Speaker 6: on base either way. And you can see Jay on
• 42:28
  Speaker 6: the broadcast say, after they reviewed it, they called him out,
• 42:32
  Speaker 6: can I come ask a question? He says no, He goes,
• 42:34
  Speaker 6: just a question. I just want a question, He goes, no,
• 42:36
  Speaker 6: He goes okay, because he knew in that moment that
• 42:39
  Speaker 6: if he comes out and you argue a review, that's
• 42:43
  Speaker 6: probably gonna get you tossed. And he showed restraint not
• 42:45
  Speaker 6: coming out of the dugout, and Schnall wasn't able to
• 42:48
  Speaker 6: show the same restraint. So J Johnson knew the moment.
• 42:53
  Speaker 6: He knew that if he came out and argued, even
• 42:54
  Speaker 6: though it was a BS call to me, there's a
• 42:57
  Speaker 6: lot of people that agree with it. Whatever I didn't,
• 42:59
  Speaker 6: Jay didn't. He knew that he was probably gonna be
• 43:01
  Speaker 6: in trouble.
• 43:03
  Speaker 7: A little bit of uh, you know, been there, done
• 43:06
  Speaker 7: that situation, a little bit of maturity there coming out,
• 43:08
  Speaker 7: a little bit experience coming out. But for the Coastals coach,
• 43:13
  Speaker 7: you know, sometimes having all the muscles in all fun
• 43:15
  Speaker 7: and games, you start walking towards the ump, you little
• 43:18
  Speaker 7: look a little bit more aggressive. The argument could be
• 43:21
  Speaker 7: made that if he was a little bit more frail looking,
• 43:25
  Speaker 7: a little bit less intimidating looking, maybe he doesn't get
• 43:27
  Speaker 7: thrown out. But boy, when that face gets red, it
• 43:29
  Speaker 7: was vains start popping out the side of his temple.
• 43:31
  Speaker 5: Every coach and Coastal look the same everyone They did
• 43:36
  Speaker 5: the interro whatever.
• 43:37
  Speaker 6: I guarantee you their slow pitch softball team in the
• 43:40
  Speaker 6: off season hits tanks probably.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: Fulling.
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: Then who's like the active head coach. I'm like, I
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: thought that was the first base until I figured out
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: he got ejected to I was.
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: It probably was just a different jersey. Flip this jersey on.
• 43:55
  Speaker 6: All right, all right, let's take our last break abo
