Speaker 1: League Rookies of the Year, one older than the other.
Speaker 1: One in nineteen ninety two, won the National League Rookie
Speaker 1: of the Year, the string of five in a row,
Speaker 1: Eric Harros whose nickname was Fabio back when he played.
Speaker 1: And we have a man that won back to back
Speaker 1: Rookies of the Year with my other favorite, Cody Bellinger.
Speaker 1: And that is the one and only two time two
Speaker 1: time World Series Champion, two time two time World Series MVP,
Speaker 1: the one and only Corey Seeger, Corey Man. You know

Speaker 1: It's always a pleasure. Great to see you you too.
Speaker 1: How'd you guys swing today?
Speaker 3: We put a good run on it. We might be
Speaker 3: at the top of that leaderboard, so we'll find out.
Speaker 2: Oh boy, watch out. I'm telling you, hey.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you. The way you're playing it down makes
Speaker 1: this even more suspicious that Justin Turner rigged to win
Speaker 1: his own golf tournament.
Speaker 2: Hey, sometimes you gotta you know.
Speaker 1: Sometimes, did Ryan Pepio hit a hole in one again?
Speaker 2: No, but he came pretty close a couple times, did
Speaker 2: he really? Yeah? I didn't kill the ball, Oh God,
Speaker 2: drove the green a couple of times.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: We Oh, I have out there.
Speaker 1: I was out there. I saw what you guys were
Speaker 1: doing out there. Geez, Justin Turner, what does he mean
Speaker 1: to you? Why do you and Maddie Seeger come all
Speaker 1: the way back to California for this golf tournament? I
Speaker 1: know it's not just because of golfing. You come because
Speaker 1: of Courtney and Justin and what they do.
Speaker 3: Yep, we come for the humans. You know, they're just
Speaker 3: they're incredible people. How they've supported the city, how their
Speaker 3: foundation has supported many people.
Speaker 2: You know, that's why you come. You know, it's the relationship.
Speaker 3: Of me and him, Courtney and Maddie, even me and
Speaker 3: court right like, we're we're all good friends. So it's
Speaker 3: just that relationship that brings you out.
Speaker 2: Here and you know and will always be here.
Speaker 1: It feels like anybody from those teams from twenty fifteen
Speaker 1: to twenty twenty twenty twenty one. If anybody needed the other,
Speaker 1: it feels like you guys would be there for them.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely. You know, we were a really close group, and.
Speaker 3: You're right, just the support that we have for each
Speaker 3: other and just spend a lot of years together and
Speaker 3: you become friends. You know, it's on and off the field,
Speaker 3: but mostly off the field. Now that we're all we're
Speaker 3: all good friends still and stick together and we show up.
Speaker 2: You know, that's what you're supposed to do for your
Speaker 2: teammates and your friends.
Speaker 1: Now that you're all married and all of you now
Speaker 1: have kids, it felt like there was a lot well
Speaker 1: not you, that's right, I'm sorry. I was thinking Justin
Speaker 1: and Courtney with Bo Courtney.
Speaker 2: That's a cute little kid.
Speaker 1: Cute little kid, a lot of ginger, a lot of ginger.
Speaker 2: Yeah, cute kids.
Speaker 1: It's great when you could give it back to the parents, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's where I Matt.
Speaker 3: But no, he's a cute little guy, that one that
Speaker 3: you might run away with.
Speaker 1: All right, let's run let's rewind. All you guys got
Speaker 1: married within a year of each other. I mean that
Speaker 1: was the most insane thing. I was very much against
Speaker 1: all of you getting married. I wanted you guys to
Speaker 1: live life to the fullest, even though I do at
Speaker 1: this point in time, even though I'm married, I felt
Speaker 1: like I was saying, hey, guys, I mean, it's great
Speaker 1: to be in somebody else's wedding, but you may want
Speaker 1: to pump the brakes on getting married.
Speaker 2: No, we all live our lives with our wives now.
Speaker 1: Maddie I met Maddie, except Maddie, except Mattie Seeger. I
Speaker 1: love Mattie Seeger.
Speaker 2: She made my life better. That's why we got married.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she did. You need a woman that makes you better.
Speaker 1: My godfather said a woman will make you or break you,
Speaker 1: and Maddie Seeger has made you.
Speaker 2: She tries to break marry.
Speaker 1: Hey, I told you I live in the doghouse, you do,
Speaker 1: see right there, that's where we got married. I feel
Speaker 1: like the divorce is coming pretty soon too.
Speaker 3: Right here at the place she got married. She's gonna
Speaker 3: call you in a second.
Speaker 1: Hey, did you watch the World Series or no?
Speaker 2: We're in Europe?
Speaker 1: So really?
Speaker 2: Yeah? So the time change was hard.
Speaker 1: But did you plan that you didn't want to see
Speaker 1: the playoffs?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: No, no, no, I was. I was excited for all
Speaker 3: those guys over there. I was excited for the city,
Speaker 3: you know, not having the parade in twenty twenty. That said,
Speaker 3: he deserved that, so it was it was really cool
Speaker 3: to see it. It was it was awesome to uh
Speaker 3: just kind of live through him. So it was a
Speaker 3: cool moment for them.
Speaker 1: How about Walker Bueller, a guy you knew when he
Speaker 1: first came up. To see him have that moment feels
Speaker 1: like he was ready for when he had that final
Speaker 1: strikeout to give that pose.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you know, he he deserved that moment though.
Speaker 3: You know that that guy's been through a lot and
Speaker 3: to be able to come back and compete.
Speaker 2: And that's the guy you on the mountain.
Speaker 3: You know when we were when we were playing together,
Speaker 3: that's the guy we always wanted on the mound. So
Speaker 3: he's a special person and the right guy for that spot.
Speaker 1: I'm a true believer in there are guys made for October.
Speaker 1: It seems like he is made for October.
Speaker 3: He absolutely is made for October. There's a there's a
Speaker 3: game you need to win. That's the guy you want
Speaker 3: on the mountain.
Speaker 1: Corey Seeker's the guy I want at the plate too.
Speaker 2: I'd rather hit him on the mountain.
Speaker 1: Dang, I had both. Hey, Europe. By the way, Maddy
Speaker 1: Seeger see making you global. I don't think you've ever
Speaker 1: left what North Carolina before? And now she's taking you
Speaker 1: to Europe. Where did she take you?
Speaker 2: I'm a world traveler now, I mean, I.

Speaker 1: and North Carolina.

Speaker 1: press box at Dodger Stadium after he won Minor League
Speaker 1: Player of the Year and they were giving you the tour.
Speaker 1: You had the suit on. I mean, and look where
Speaker 1: you've come, have you? I mean, at this point in time,
Speaker 1: can you ever reflect where you started and just where
Speaker 1: you've gone?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a long time ago, though, but happens fast,
Speaker 2: doesn't it. No?
Speaker 3: I mean, you never imagine that, right, like you never
Speaker 3: know how it's going to pan out. You just trying
Speaker 3: to do your job, trying to do as well as you can.
Speaker 3: You know, you never expect anything, So to be where
Speaker 3: I am, it's it really is a blessing And couldn't

Speaker 3: it out with my wife and you know, you just
Speaker 3: you run into a lot of good people.
Speaker 2: You know, that's kind of why we're here. You know.
Speaker 3: JT helped me in my career. You know, all those guys,
Speaker 3: and that's that's why you show up for him. You know,
Speaker 3: it means a lot.
Speaker 1: Honestly, Kershaw means a lot because of the work ethic
Speaker 1: and just what he stands for. I feel like you
Speaker 1: guys have a lot of similarities and just how you
Speaker 1: approach life, how you approach the game, You respect the game.
Speaker 1: Do you do you guys connect in that way?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Absolutely, you know, I think that's kind of the fortunate
Speaker 3: thing that I had for myself as a young guys.
Speaker 2: I watched guys who did it the right way and
Speaker 2: they let people be people.
Speaker 3: You know, they they understood how I did it and
Speaker 3: got the best out of me, and they let me
Speaker 3: do that. You know, and just a blessing for me
Speaker 3: to be able to have that and that point in
Speaker 3: my career.
Speaker 2: You know, you're still trying to figure it out.
Speaker 3: There's a lot going on, there's things you don't know about,
Speaker 3: and they're just there to help you and kind of
Speaker 3: keep you in line.
Speaker 2: Right, So that was that was everything for me as
Speaker 2: a young guy. For sure.
Speaker 1: I feel like he's told me this. He doesn't look
Speaker 1: back at old starts. He just moves on to the
Speaker 1: next five day routine. I know, as a hitter, maybe
Speaker 1: you want to look back at at bats, but I
Speaker 1: get the sense from you it's the same thing. I
Speaker 1: don't care what I did to October's ago. I don't
Speaker 1: care about the World Series. I don't care if I
Speaker 1: went oh for four or four for four yesterday. You
Speaker 1: care about today?
Speaker 2: Yeah, It's it's all about today. Right.
Speaker 3: We're judged at seven o'clock that night. You know that
Speaker 3: you were not judged from seven o'clock to night before
Speaker 3: the next day. It's it's all about that day and
Speaker 3: winning that day. And that team was really special about
Speaker 3: being able to just be in the moment and win
Speaker 3: that day.
Speaker 2: And that's what you have to do to be good.
Speaker 1: Have you heard about Rich Hill Speaking of that, he
Speaker 1: was about being where your feet are. Yeah, he's pitching
Speaker 1: for Team USA right now.
