WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:23.000
You're listening to the downbeat, the
freak Happy Friday for the downbeat. Just

2
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:28.600
it's a little preview of the bigest
trending thing in the world, The new

3
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:33.039
Beyonce album. Let's Tell a little
bit of a couple of tracks was opening

4
00:00:33.159 --> 00:00:37.240
night last night in one hour.
A little bit of audio from the vaultpark.

5
00:00:37.399 --> 00:00:46.039
Yeah that's all right, Yeah,
someone chose f music a yeah,

6
00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:50.880
well either way, well reseat what
well? I mean whatever I got done?

7
00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:55.399
All that over? Yeah, we
have a turn cut with a naughty

8
00:00:55.479 --> 00:00:59.000
naughty word in it. Yeah,
like forty he didn't have an E in

9
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:03.600
front of it. I know sometimes
those slip past it's not true would be

10
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:06.239
on me. That was one of
my return cuts too. That was that

11
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:11.760
was holler. So yeah. Audio
for the Ballpark at eight, Yeah,

12
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:18.120
fun, that's gonna be interesting.
It's gonna be very interesting. And we

13
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:21.439
were told they didn't do the Cotton
Eyed Joe last night, but uh,

14
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:25.959
what did actually happen at the ballpark
last night? We should do in Sports

15
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:45.599
at seven, Sports at seven,
now Sports at seven, all right,

16
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:49.760
So it all happened. They dropped
the banner a tear in the eye of

17
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:57.319
Jonaheim as the banner was unfurled,
and that was pretty cool. Uh.

18
00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:02.599
Now I again had to go to
a charity dinner. Yeah you did,

19
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:07.520
and beautiful. I did throw in
the request, can we get the private

20
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.680
room so I can watch Opening Night? Right? And some giant idiot had

21
00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:15.960
that room instead of you. You
were saying, no, I'd not say

22
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:17.800
it, he said, some giant
idiot. No, I said, one

23
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:22.960
of the best humans ever to grace
this. What did he ever do?

24
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:28.520
That's so great? Dirk had the
private room. But it's okay. So

25
00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:34.039
I was not watching pitch by pitch
as I would have normally been. But

26
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:37.039
yet you're here alive on the radio
to report about it. Yeah, because

27
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:39.879
that's all the I know what happened, and I get to watch a quick

28
00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:43.680
recap of it and saw the end
and all the good stuff. But I'd

29
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:49.159
like to go to something I did
see the first pitch Michael Carter with had

30
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:53.039
incredible head of hair. Oh yeah, I loaded that beautiful head of hair

31
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:57.800
for eighty I don't know, yeah, seventy five or something. I don't

32
00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:00.319
know. He's up there. Okay. Well, first off, Greg Abbott

33
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:05.520
in the house. I thought he
kind of held the ball up his head

34
00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:07.400
like he was about to throw it. I'm like, what is this?

35
00:03:07.240 --> 00:03:10.560
Where'd Michael Carter go? After two
days of yelling about this, We're gonna

36
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:17.000
go to the bullpen? And yeah, Pudg just crouched downying throw it,

37
00:03:17.240 --> 00:03:21.159
okay, come on, And then
Michael Carter goes out. Did you see

38
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:23.120
it? He throws up like the
chick on the floor. It took him

39
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:29.919
a full minute to release and pud
Yeah. Now Pudg is like, I've

40
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:35.599
done this that one thousand times?
How many poor first pitch catches as Pudge

41
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:38.240
had to be rolled out there for
He's like, again, all right,

42
00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:42.599
I know how this works. And
the guy wouldn't throw it? Well,

43
00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:45.319
they hold out. I don't know. I think he thought someone was gonna

44
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:49.000
signal him now it's time. And
I kind of thought you standing out there,

45
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:53.879
Pudge in the squat and all the
cameras they're ready to go, that

46
00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:57.039
would indicate that, yes, it
is, in fact time, mister Carter.

47
00:03:57.719 --> 00:04:01.240
I thought he was just shaking off
Pudges pitcher. Ah, what's more

48
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:06.039
now it's time than Pudge waving at
you? Though, like I thought he

49
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:09.479
froze up. I thought the moment
was too big for him. And that's

50
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:14.439
why I wanted a celebrity out there
to handle Night one, and we'll do

51
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:18.680
Michael Carter. There's fewer fans and
attendance, and everyone's not riding the emotional

52
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:21.759
hive of the banner dropping. What
do you guys think about the banner?

53
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:26.199
Oh my god, I don't know. Man, Did you want a little

54
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:30.600
spy more spice to it than they
they bought it on? Timu the dude,

55
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:34.279
I thought the same thing. I
don't know, I'm trying to be

56
00:04:34.360 --> 00:04:38.759
a jerk about it, but I
was like, ah, I you know

57
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:42.720
what, and I'm fine with the
actual banner. But just like every other

58
00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:46.399
person who has access to the World
Wide Web, I couldn't believe it was

59
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:53.360
all bunched up and wasn't straight.
Well, it wasn't straight. It remained

60
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:58.720
wrinkled and bunched up throughout the game. I don't know how that happened,

61
00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:05.399
Okay, especially when they the dome
it was seventy four degrees inside, it

62
00:05:05.480 --> 00:05:11.879
was seventy two degrees outside. No
chance at first pitch, no reign in

63
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:15.199
the forecast. But then I told
myself, you know what, they made

64
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:20.639
this decision because they didn't want it
to be windy dealing with the banner and

65
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:28.920
Texas wins come blowing through their you
know banner that's a little more permanent looking

66
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:33.160
than that thing. I mean,
look, we got a banner. Yes,

67
00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:39.759
I don't want to bitch about it
looks cool and even the all white

68
00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:44.240
is Okay, it's not very exciting
or unique. It's effing big and it's

69
00:05:44.279 --> 00:05:46.360
a there's a big World Commissioner's trophy
on it, so as Arrangers won it,

70
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:50.800
so like, yes, and that's
leaning into the gold accent, you

71
00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:56.040
know for their Okay, riddle me
this, who unless you're the Braids,

72
00:05:56.079 --> 00:05:59.759
I think whatever? Did do?
They have authorization for like one year to

73
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:05.000
add the gold because that should be
every World Series champ and only in that

74
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:13.319
next season they can use that is
either alternate jersey like the gold trim that

75
00:06:13.519 --> 00:06:16.000
then that you can't use it next
year and whoever wins this year, you

76
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:23.319
know, unless you know, only
the raining or defending World Series champ can

77
00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:27.160
use this get to wear gold.
Bouchie said that that is what they did

78
00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:30.439
with the Giants. Oh okay,
So I don't know that every team does

79
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:31.720
this, and it might be that
every team does this, but in his

80
00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:36.040
three World Series wins with the Giants
that next year they had the gold outline.

81
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:40.879
Players love it. They get to
keep those jerseys, you know,

82
00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:44.800
dude, Okay, if no other
reason than to sell crap. Did you

83
00:06:44.839 --> 00:06:47.439
see how many people were wearing those
lids in those jerseys last night in the

84
00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:53.040
game, like the fans. Yeah, I could not. They made so

85
00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:56.959
much money just on that, because
that's why alternate jerseys even really exist,

86
00:06:57.839 --> 00:07:00.680
is to sell more crap. Fine, and it's it's a cool thing to

87
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:02.000
have, Like I was glad to
get. I got one for my birthday,

88
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:05.199
just one of the caps with the
World Series. It's got the World

89
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:11.160
Series champions on the side and then
the t is just all gold and you're

90
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:14.319
never you may never get one again, right, so hell yeah you want

91
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:16.199
one, absolutely so I love that. Alright, take back bitching about the

92
00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:19.519
banner. The banner was great.
I love the design of it. I

93
00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:25.959
just thought they could have used like
a heavier stock of cloth and maybe something

94
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:29.160
a little more ornate as far as
the tie down mechanism, because it just

95
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:32.399
looked like twine. I thought,
like MLB is like hand issuing here's your

96
00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:34.759
World Series banner, and it looks
like that. For every team though,

97
00:07:34.800 --> 00:07:38.279
you know, it just seems I
don't know, but you just kind of

98
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:44.519
there's nothing unique about it, right, you had to centsh it. There's

99
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:46.319
the reveal. Actually I haven't even
seen the actual reveal yet. There it

100
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:50.360
goes, Okay, so they've dropped
it down. Okay, it wasn't set

101
00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:55.360
up. And then another curtain move
reveal. So I guess they didn't know

102
00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:58.639
how it was gonna hang. Yeah, they'll straighten it out. Yeah,

103
00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:01.480
you know by tonight it'll be perfect
and it'll remain perfect all year. But

104
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:05.360
yeah, okay, I like that
reveal how they drift draped it down and

105
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:09.920
let it go. Yeah, did
did you guys get a little bit of

106
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:13.040
like oh yeah, and just like
a little more like edge. Just to

107
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.680
call back to Nathan e Evaldi,
just kind of watching him, remember him

108
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:18.839
dominating the playoffs. He was great
last night? He was he was so

109
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:24.439
good? Was he? Yeah?
But dude, six six innings to earned

110
00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:26.199
runs, that's wrong with that?
On opening day. A lot of pitchers

111
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:30.399
aren't throwing eighty eight pitches on opening
day. I was really surprised when I

112
00:08:30.439 --> 00:08:31.960
looked up and I was like,
he's at eighty five right now, and

113
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:37.440
still throwing, you know, yeah, I guess I bought into the was

114
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:41.720
it ESPN whatever announcers saying every ball
that people are hitting is over one hundred

115
00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:43.799
miles an hour and a few were
to the warning track, but that was

116
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:48.519
all early. I guess he's settled
in pretty nice. We got the Adults

117
00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:54.080
home run, which when I was
listening, I was on the radio and

118
00:08:54.120 --> 00:09:01.519
they were announcing players. It sounded
to me like Adoles was the loudest pop,

119
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:07.720
Like you got a big one for
Simeon, a big one for Seeger

120
00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:11.039
of course, probably the second biggest
one for Seeger, but it was adultys.

121
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:16.440
It kind of by far, which
maybe that's just fan favorites what he

122
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:22.039
is and how he is sort of
like our you know, the superhero of

123
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:24.159
that thing. He might not be
a top five best player on your team,

124
00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:28.120
and that's not a shot at it. Maybe he's kind of like what

125
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:31.240
and I think maybe they said something
like this last night. He's kind of

126
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:35.720
like what a big Poppy was to
the Red Sox, almost like a mascot,

127
00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:41.960
the lovable, cuddly dude that just
destroys you who was out of the

128
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:45.639
league, And yeah, they just
like, you know, who should get

129
00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:48.720
a little bit of credit. He
gets no credit for anything because they did

130
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:52.440
nothing but lose here. No,
Chris was the guy who was like real

131
00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:58.120
big on Look, we need to
absolutely find a way to keep him in

132
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.639
the organization. It's all here,
and when it finally comes out, you're

133
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:03.679
all gonna know what. We can't
just cut him. They were going to

134
00:10:03.759 --> 00:10:07.960
cut him again. Yeah, and
he's almost out of the league because four

135
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.720
years ago he was about half that
size. He really hit the gym in

136
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:16.960
the last four years and now he's
just absolutely massive from head to toe and

137
00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:20.559
he's just mashing home runs. I
just think he's really changed his body.

138
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:24.240
He's really worked out hard. Dude, have you ever had a protein shake?

139
00:10:24.559 --> 00:10:28.320
What he'll do to your figure?
And just instantly just pull that audio

140
00:10:28.360 --> 00:10:33.519
and wait, wait a few months, replace those cupcakes with protein shakes.

141
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:39.080
Yeh, whoa l bombie. Find
a picture of him. It hit Adla's

142
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:46.960
Garcia Cardinals, Okay, and find
an image him. Oh man, Yeah,

143
00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:50.200
that's different. It looks like Profar. Yeah, he looks like carrick'son

144
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:54.720
Profar. But then he just just
crushing it in the gym. And now

145
00:10:56.440 --> 00:11:01.559
now he's a world series you know, lsm VP type and just smacking home

146
00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:03.799
runs. So yeah, dude,
hell you big moment of the game.

147
00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:09.960
It's three to two, bottom of
the ninth Travis Jenkowski. Oh what L

148
00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:13.200
Blondie solo shot? Yeah that we're
going with L Blondie at L Bombie.

149
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:18.519
Yeah, okay, that was last
year that started L Blondie. They said

150
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:22.519
he has eleven career home runs.
I mean, I clearly know Jankowski is

151
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:26.960
not your slugger, but he's been
around for a few years. Eleven in

152
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:33.519
his career. He gets in there, just had no doubt. Jared what

153
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.120
no doubt? Even though the bugles
like, oh, oh, I guess

154
00:11:37.159 --> 00:11:41.120
he would. We were just kind
of thinking, maybe get on, you

155
00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:46.200
can go ahead, tied up right
now, it's beautiful Jenko. So Janko

156
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:50.360
ties it. So Boachi had other
options he could have gone with because he

157
00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:54.799
was pinchating for h Ezekiel Durant,
and they had a first baseman on the

158
00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:56.799
roster who probably won't be on the
rostra all year. His name's Jared Walsh,

159
00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:01.120
probably here until Nate Lo gets back. But Walsh had a season of

160
00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:05.360
twenty nine home runs. So he
had a season of eighteen more home runs

161
00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:09.200
than Jenko's career total and Bochie just
pushing buttons goes. You know what,

162
00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:13.200
I think Jenko's got us here,
not the power hitter. Nay might have

163
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.840
been trying to start a rally,
and you know, I wonder if he

164
00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:22.480
would have pinch hit and put Jenko
in there had the game been tied at

165
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:26.399
that point, because a lot of
people would argue it should have been tied

166
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:30.639
at that point. Yeah, after
what happened with him behind the plate.

167
00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:35.399
That was a weekal tip, which
was you know, I don't look,

168
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:43.320
I the onus is on on him
to go get that ball and not argue

169
00:12:43.840 --> 00:12:48.200
yeah, while that other dude is
just circling the basis is the ball just

170
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:52.120
sitting there twenty feet from him?
But why isn't that reviewal? I don't

171
00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:56.879
understand everyone's number one question. Has
it never been? Is A? I

172
00:12:56.919 --> 00:13:03.039
guess not. I say they want
to keep strikes non reviewable, so even

173
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:05.320
foul tips are involved. I don't
know. And should there be a run

174
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:09.360
scoring play balls and strikes caveat to
that or something so, especially late in

175
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:13.000
the game like that, when it's
the leverages as high as it is,

176
00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:18.960
because you've got a guy on second
base pitch comes in swing, miss the

177
00:13:18.039 --> 00:13:22.480
ball. I mean, you could
tell Jonaheim was set up to catch the

178
00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:26.799
ball right where he needed to,
and the ball was foul tip, just

179
00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:30.720
enough to chance to slightly change the
trajectory of it to go off the side

180
00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:33.960
of him's glove. Jonaheim thinks,
Okay, that's a foul tip, and

181
00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:39.639
he just kind of stands up and
the ball is what maybe ten fifteen feet

182
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:43.159
from him and he's like, dude, that no, that was a foul

183
00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:46.440
tip. Come on, man.
Meanwhile, who is the guy that scored

184
00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:50.360
the run? I'm not sure.
I'm sorry. Anyway, he got the

185
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:54.639
third base coach just goes, look, there's nobody covering home, and he'd

186
00:13:54.679 --> 00:13:58.080
never get to the ball in time
to tag you or throw you out.

187
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:05.039
Go ends up tying, ends up
taking the go ahead run in the bottom

188
00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:07.200
of the eighth or the top of
the top of the ninth, it was

189
00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:09.919
Bush who scored, Yeah, top
nine and the top of the ninth was

190
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:15.639
Bush who scores on that. So
they go up three to two and you

191
00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:18.200
find out it's not reviewable. I
thought immediately that the boat you was all

192
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:20.360
right, let's take a look at
that and do the you know, the

193
00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:22.759
ring with your finger around the top
of your head. Let's go to the

194
00:14:22.799 --> 00:14:28.240
cameras, right, And I could
not believe that that was not a play

195
00:14:28.320 --> 00:14:31.399
like that. And what if that
had happened in the World Series. Yeah,

196
00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:33.320
And I don't know how many times
that exact thing has happened, and

197
00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:37.759
I'm sure it's happened. But baseball
is amazing how you can play one million

198
00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:43.120
games and something weird and not new
again, because I'm sure that's happened,

199
00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:48.039
but that's a very rare thing.
When the catcher was didn't even make a

200
00:14:48.080 --> 00:14:50.919
move because he knew it was foul
tipped ump doesn't know and then they ump

201
00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:56.039
just shrug because I didn't see it. And in the ninth inning, it's

202
00:14:56.080 --> 00:15:00.720
just it took ten seconds on video
replay too. From the esp in cameras.

203
00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:03.639
It's very easy to just go into
the dump and not not. But

204
00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:07.000
I'm the sky. I think the
NFL has been doing honestly, very quickly.

205
00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:11.480
They're like, okay, now,
maybe there could be circumstances in baseball

206
00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:16.200
where if it's a close game or
depending whether it's late in the inning,

207
00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:20.600
that late late late in innings,
you somebody from New York just goes,

208
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:24.240
hey, we need to look at
this. It's a football rule. It's

209
00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:26.679
a run scoring play, right,
Everything that happens on a run scoring play

210
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:31.559
it can theoretically be reviewed. Sure, I love that, Like, why

211
00:15:31.600 --> 00:15:35.840
not and separate foul tips from balls
and strikes? Yeah, you know it's

212
00:15:35.919 --> 00:15:39.559
quite easy to do that. So
that made you know the Jankowski home tying

213
00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:46.120
home run huge, so huge.
And then you get to the tenth inning.

214
00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:50.440
Get to sell the Rangers new bullpen
arms. Yeah, not bad,

215
00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:54.919
right, not bad? Can't be
walking guys, But I David Robertson will

216
00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:58.600
be. He's a smiley man.
Doesn't that feel better than Will Smith out

217
00:15:58.639 --> 00:16:06.559
there just lobbing eighty four mile per
hour? Softiest, mister soft. Nobody

218
00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:08.799
hates Will Smith more than Kevy.
Oh, I don't hate Will Smith.

219
00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:14.480
He's probably a nice guy, but
he doesn't need to closing games, just

220
00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:18.799
getting drilled. And then we have
the big moment, the bases loaded.

221
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:22.919
We all wanted it to be.
Why at Langford? I think they get

222
00:16:22.919 --> 00:16:27.159
the force out at home on the
fielder's choice and here comes Joanadheim and he

223
00:16:27.440 --> 00:16:32.279
rips it into the right center field
gap. Rangers win and then it felt

224
00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:34.960
like maybe this is because it was
the national broadcast. It felt like to

225
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:40.639
me like everyone just left and went
home. I never got the feeling that

226
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:42.320
there was some big party happening at
the Globe last night. I got the

227
00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:45.519
feeling that everyone was ready to get
home and beat traffic and get home for

228
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:49.720
work. Now, maybe that was
me thinking about wanting to go to bed.

229
00:16:49.919 --> 00:16:55.000
I hit the power button while they
were still crowding around Joonaheim, so

230
00:16:55.080 --> 00:16:59.559
I wouldn't know. Well, I
read a thing that was sent out from

231
00:16:59.720 --> 00:17:03.680
the Jamie Newberg substack this morning and
he said the same thing. It just

232
00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:08.200
kind of felt like there wasn't a
big buzz in the concourse. Oh really,

233
00:17:08.319 --> 00:17:11.920
head he got to their car.
People wanted to go home. Extra

234
00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:15.599
innings. It was a bummer.
I the second that game was tied going

235
00:17:15.640 --> 00:17:18.079
into the tenth and like, yeah, I think I'm done. Maybe it's

236
00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:19.680
more just like opening days, a
little bit of a longer day. You

237
00:17:19.759 --> 00:17:23.240
got to turn around and do it
again today and the next day one hundred

238
00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:26.960
and sixty more or whatever. That's
about the fans though not the team.

239
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:30.920
I'm about the fans. Fans aren't
off today, No, and and and

240
00:17:30.160 --> 00:17:34.319
started drinking at two o'clock or three
o'clock. And I think there's probably a

241
00:17:34.319 --> 00:17:40.519
big portion of that too. He's
tired by ten. We think Evan Carter

242
00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:45.759
just was had a nervous first game. It was kind of weird because I

243
00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:48.680
mean, but you could argue misplay
of that fly ball to the left field

244
00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:51.200
and that we've seen that move.
Was it a misslayer, was it just

245
00:17:51.240 --> 00:17:53.880
to hit too hard? I don't
know who, but I just there's a

246
00:17:53.880 --> 00:17:57.599
lot of times when he does the
run back and jump high that we've seen

247
00:17:57.680 --> 00:18:02.279
in his relatively short time with the
Rangers. Maybe we're spoiled. Yeah,

248
00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:06.839
I don't know, but that one
you can debate. But Okay, when

249
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:11.079
he cuts off of first base and
just gets doubled off in is that the

250
00:18:11.079 --> 00:18:15.839
bottom of the ninth or that's kind
of basics? And then was it the

251
00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:18.200
national broadcast I think we're like,
do you think Carter thought there was two

252
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.079
outs? Yeah? I know they
kind of debated it, like did he

253
00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:29.200
think there was two outs and not
one? When he just bolts? He's

254
00:18:29.240 --> 00:18:30.839
never you know what, he's never
had an opening day, had day.

255
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:34.640
So we can talk more about and
we haven't even talked about why at Langford

256
00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:40.079
yet his interesting let's do that at
A Yeah for sure. Uh no,

257
00:18:40.160 --> 00:18:42.720
that's all good. He's huge.
Last night with the lineup, Josh Young

258
00:18:42.799 --> 00:18:48.240
hit third. Probably won't always be
that way, Okay, having Carter at

259
00:18:48.759 --> 00:18:52.359
because that was awesome. Yeah,
so uh yeah, yeah, we'll have

260
00:18:52.359 --> 00:18:57.440
some audio from inside the ballpark things
that at eight o'clock. It'll be Muccio

261
00:18:57.519 --> 00:19:03.640
funo guys. It'll be so fun
coming up in the scuttle butt, guys,

262
00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:07.599
I've got tons of crap in the
news to get to, including details

263
00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:14.759
on the cave underneath the NASCAR track
what did it contain? Finally, and

264
00:19:14.839 --> 00:19:15.000
more on the freak
