11
00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:26.280
<v Speaker 1>In Miami you usually only see fans wear this shirt.

12
00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:29.480

13
00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:31.960

<v Speaker 1>Landon Dave Roberts said yesterday you are one of his

34
00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:19.959
<v Speaker 1>four starting pitchers.

35
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:23.000
<v Speaker 2>For the NLDS. What does that mean to you? It

36
00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:23.519
<v Speaker 2>means a lot.

37
00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:26.959
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, No, obviously, I've been very excited over the course

38
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:28.519
<v Speaker 3>of the year. You know, it's been kind of back

39
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:31.280
<v Speaker 3>and forth between here and OKC and kind of just

40
00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:34.079
<v Speaker 3>battling through things, trying to stay as consistent as possible,

41
00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:38.000
<v Speaker 3>and so getting that kind of nod right there from him.

42
00:01:37.840 --> 00:01:38.640
<v Speaker 2>Means a ton to me.

43
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:42.640
<v Speaker 3>And I'm just excited to contribute and towards our ultimate.

44
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:43.239
<v Speaker 2>Goal of World Series.

45
00:01:43.439 --> 00:01:46.120
<v Speaker 1>Can you look back at where your season started and

46
00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:48.840
<v Speaker 1>where it's going headed to the playoffs, do you feel

47
00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:52.120
<v Speaker 1>like you're starting to get some traction to your season,

48
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:54.159
<v Speaker 1>some regularity to it again.

49
00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:57.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, And I think kind of being able to get

50
00:01:57.079 --> 00:01:58.599
<v Speaker 3>up here this last time and just kind of being

51
00:01:58.640 --> 00:02:00.879
<v Speaker 3>able to settle in for the last month and kind

52
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:02.879
<v Speaker 3>of stick around up here and kind of get back

53
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:05.799
<v Speaker 3>into a normal routine instead of the kind of back

54
00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:08.400
<v Speaker 3>and forth and starts moving around to kind of fit

55
00:02:08.759 --> 00:02:11.240
<v Speaker 3>with the needs here and being able to just kind

56
00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:13.520
<v Speaker 3>of have that consistency being part of the team and

57
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:16.599
<v Speaker 3>just getting to stay here. It's made everything feel a

58
00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:17.199
<v Speaker 3>lot easier.

<v Speaker 1>second half.

64
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:28.479
<v Speaker 2>It was surreal.

65
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:31.840

<v Speaker 3>Kind of the first time pop and bottles up here.

72
00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:50.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure you envisioned that the last few years watching

73
00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:52.639
<v Speaker 1>this team do exactly what you were.

74
00:02:52.520 --> 00:02:53.159
<v Speaker 2>A part of.

75
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:55.800
<v Speaker 1>To be part of it this time, do you feel

76
00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:58.439
<v Speaker 1>like that's another box you've checked in your career.

77
00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:01.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, absolutely, Guys, there's a lot of people who play

78
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:04.919
<v Speaker 3>baseball around this league that don't get to experience that

79
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:07.560
<v Speaker 3>for a long time if ever. And so getting to

80
00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:10.199

00:03:18.680 --> 00:03:20.560
<v Speaker 3>just something I definitely don't take for granted.

85
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:25.080
<v Speaker 1>During that celebration, Gavin Stone was in there twenty five starts,

86
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:27.400
<v Speaker 1>the most on the team. He pitched the most innings

87
00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:30.639
<v Speaker 1>of any pitcher on this staff all year, unfortunately the

88
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:31.520

89
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:34.680
<v Speaker 2>What was it like celebrating with him? It was great.

90
00:03:34.719 --> 00:03:36.280

91
00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:37.719
<v Speaker 3>be a part of that. He's been such a huge

92
00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:40.080
<v Speaker 3>part of this team the entire year. Seeing the way

93
00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:42.759

94
00:03:42.759 --> 00:03:45.599

100
00:03:57.800 --> 00:03:59.599
<v Speaker 3>us accomplish this year because he was such a big

101
00:03:59.639 --> 00:04:00.840
<v Speaker 3>part of it, and uh, and it.

102
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:03.080
<v Speaker 2>Was just great. Landon Neck is our guest.

103
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:05.240
<v Speaker 1>All right, before I let you go, we all saw

104
00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:09.919
<v Speaker 1>it the standoff yesterday before the game after the national

105
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:13.719
<v Speaker 1>anthem Dodger fans, I have seen that before between Joe

106
00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:16.600
<v Speaker 1>Kelly at the time a Cardinal and Scott Vance like

107
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:17.199
<v Speaker 1>a Dodger.

108
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:21.439
<v Speaker 2>How did that all come about? Did you arrange that? No?

109
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:23.879
<v Speaker 3>I actually had no plan of doing that at all.

110
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:26.879
<v Speaker 3>And then uh, the color guard here, I was gonna

111
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:28.839
<v Speaker 3>I just always wait for them to get off the field,

112
00:04:29.319 --> 00:04:31.680
<v Speaker 3>and instead of they were starting behind second had to

113
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:34.120
<v Speaker 3>walk all the way to the left field corner and

114
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:35.480
<v Speaker 3>so it was taking a long time, and I just

115
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:38.560
<v Speaker 3>kind of half peeked over there their line and saw

116
00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:41.759
<v Speaker 3>Freelan just eyeing me down. And so as soon as

117
00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:43.759
<v Speaker 3>I saw him staring at me, I was like, well,

118
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:46.519
<v Speaker 3>I have to say, yes, I can't just not accept.

119
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:48.399
<v Speaker 2>That, like you're you're clearly challenging me. All right, let's

120
00:04:48.439 --> 00:04:51.639
<v Speaker 2>do it. And uh so yeah that was fun.

121
00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:55.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean obviously UH hate that. Uh the umpire

122
00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:57.120
<v Speaker 3>came to me first, of course, to get me out

123
00:04:57.120 --> 00:04:57.399
<v Speaker 3>of there.

124
00:04:57.439 --> 00:05:00.000
<v Speaker 2>But uh, that was that was fun.

125
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:02.959
<v Speaker 1>I feel like that was the rookie thing to do

126
00:05:03.040 --> 00:05:05.480
<v Speaker 1>by the umpire right, not go to the veteran in

127
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:08.120
<v Speaker 1>his home ballpark, but to come to the rookie.

128
00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:10.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I think he knew exactly what he was doing.

129
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:12.560
<v Speaker 2>He knew that he could.

130
00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:14.639
<v Speaker 3>He could get the rookie a little bit more just

131
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:16.680
<v Speaker 3>like being with it, like hey, it's an ejection and

132
00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:19.079
<v Speaker 3>some other stuff. If you don't get off, I'm like, ah,

133
00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:21.560
<v Speaker 3>you're right, all right, I'll get i'll go, i'll go.

134
00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:23.000
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, so it was that.
