He talked about his dream to secure Aston Villa's first major trophy in 26 years, return the club to its historic glorious past almost recover his own reputation after it was somewhat savaged at arsenal. It looked like I got the thing it was just a Persian cat having its tummy rub. Do you just look so elated to be there?

He's got four Premier League goals and they've all come under different managers. Dean Smith, Stevie G, danks emery. Here he finished crisply through the hair first goal from open play, the Spaniard had conceded in just over 12 hours of league playing with only take three and a half minutes before it would be two. Then yeah, spanking a free kick, dipping, web precision, like a French tattooed sleeve debris, peak, new manager bounce was achieved, David. Looking unrecognizable from the team that played under Stevie G, great energy, great speed and honestly, you know, playing their opponents in a proponent that's been playing very well recently, just played them off the park at points. Yeah, united could live with villa's intensity, their press, a lot of players out and made a massive difference brewed a suspended van der beek, giving his first start in the team for 701 days and all he did was share why he doesn't deserve another. And united did force her way back into the game as villa punched themselves out a little towards half time, but it proved to be a false dawn second half, villa killed off the game, a calamitous sequence of defensive play from united, leaving the excellent Jacob Ramsey who emery had reinstated to finish. It was the rubbernecking delight of a Ronnie Ming's fight. God, that is how far he's fallen these fighting Tyrone rings. And it's really the only punch Ronnie had the CR 37 on the day when he didn't just start, but in Bruno's absence was captain, you know, you've got 494 million followers on Instagram and you too can be overindulged at your football club. With him at the tip of the arrow united really they were playing with ten men for much of this game just outpaced how exactly does the new manager bounce work? What actually goes into it? I really wish I understood more about it. But yeah, every single player just really showing up and trying to impress players. You didn't get a lot of minutes Leon Bailey being one of them. First win against united for villa in 9941 days villa fans who were. Oh, I thought she could say years. 30. Well, if you were a villa fan, and you were alive for the last game, you were 13. And you were now 40 when you watch this at the weekend. That's a lot of life. United first lost in the league since August. And let's talk overboard at the end of an impressive run. But it's got to be noted that without veran without Bruno Fernández ra Anthony, this squad, which is that so much money spent on it. They did look thin. European knights fans, united drew Barcelona in the rupa league. This morning all hail hot balls, but who knows at the wheel? They've a Stevie G died so that villa could lift. That's how Stevie G will see it. But how much did the villa players really hate Stevie G when they can play this well? Ah, that could be the secret of the bounce. It wasn't so much a bounce as a rebound is what you're saying. Southampton won Newcastle. Wow, four, four different goal scorers for the magpies beginning with yet another for living the dream, miggy armor on his fourth straight game with a goal in his 8th on the season with fabulous goal as well. Victory that sent Newcastle up to third Southampton, meanwhile, have said goodbye to Ralph Hassan huddle after four years in charge. It had to happen.

His 8th goal of the season, just incredible to watch this stat, David, his first 1327 days as a Premier League player a 154 shots ten goals, his last 36 as a player in the Premier League 23 shots. 7 goals.

Newcastle Goethe, Southampton, into the bottom three and Ralph Hassan huddle, who's been like a cat with 9 lives and held on after humiliation after humiliation, not after this one, 6 defeat in 9 games fired. After being asked by a journalist, do you see a way out of this predicament and Ralph just said, no. Hard to watch him struggle. He's got a young young squad limitations at the front and the back is four years of thrills and spills and dabbling in elite mixologist waste coats are now over. He was a good coach, rip Ralph Hampton, loon town's Nathan Jones rumored to be negotiating to take over the Nate Hampton era is upon us. West Ham won Crystal Palace two or otherwise said directional deli meat, one reflective royals home. Two. It was Sunday's second London Darby road, the irons jumped out ahead in the 20th minute when Saeed Ben Rama sent an Algerian blast into the top corner but Patrick Vieira's palace answered, wow, first in the 41st minute with wilf, capitalizing on a sloppy West Ham turnover in their own third and staffing it back down David Moyes throat. And then in the game's dying embers, Michael Elise shot hit off Aaron creswell. Sorry, producer J dubs ending up in the back of the net palace are in tenth place on 19 points the same number as Liverpool. West Ham looked like a number of teams this week, but more than any of them to have players. His mind was really on the World Cup and not getting injured rather than, you know, doing the club job. And that 94th minute punishment came Alice challenged just this week by Vieira to score more this season. He obliged via that enormous deflection, but he won't care. Michael Lee say, quoting Michael Scott, quoting Wayne Gretzky. You miss a 100% of the shots you don't take crystal palaces first away win at the season. This soothed some of my Chelsea wounds this weekend, roger, I won't lie. Wolves to brighten three after valiantly coming back from an Adam lallana opener to lead to one walls. Oh, they shot themselves in the pores. Nelson somato first out jumped at the back post by Caro mitoma to concede the equalizer and sent off some minutes later for a last man challenge on the Japanese forward Brighton's patients paid off when in the 83rd minute Pascal gross found the back of the net for the winner.

"You and I have never talked about this. You know, when I was ten years old, my little league got to travel to Montreal to see a game. And I went there with a baseball and I wanted one autograph from one player and that was Willie Davis. They traded for Mike Marshall during the previous winner and because of his connection with the Dodgers. I wanted to get his autograph. But I was an idiot at ten years old. I knew nothing. I didn't know how autographs were gotten. And so, and I had to build up my courage. And so first, second, third, fourth inning. I'm like, I have to go to an Oscar, ask for an autograph. Not knowing that you don't do that, right? During the course of a game. So in the 7th inning, I built up the courage and I ran down to the edge of the expos dug out and met him as he came off the field, and I said, mister Davis, can I have your autograph? And he signed the ball. Oh, really? He was very nice, especially with Mickey's extremely nice. So I will never forget that he took me under his wings, no question about it. So. This would have been 1974. Yeah, when I was ten years old, when he signed that autograph. So it will always stick with me. What was your favorite moment you ever broadcast? It's tough to say, I will say probably. You know, when I arrived at the coliseum, I have never seen a baseball game in my life. And been there. I was shocked to see such a big, big place then when I saw 75 75,000 people, oh my goodness, screaming, and roaring, and that impression that I got in my mind for the rest of my life. Then as a game I would have to say the perfect image. Because that was the first one. And the only one that he pitched. So that was very, very, very special. What was for you, your home run call, which is a signature home run call. How did you come up with that? Out from the air, I don't know. I never prepared things. I always have leave everything those who those moments, special moments. So I don't know how I came out. I have been trying to think how they came out. I don't know, I think it was a home run. I came to my mind and that expression and unusual and I like it, and people are calling me about the home run call, and they like, they love it. They love it so. I stick with that. Her Gibson's home run in 19 88, tell me what your favorite memory is from that. Well, the most important thing for me about the fact that he was limping so much before the game and I said to myself he is not all there is no way he can be he can play and I was wrong because he was the game and it was like a flash you know I have had some other games like the ones that when the guys fit for home runs in the 19 against the boundaries and then we got to see a para. He had another one in the tenth leading up to the batteries when I hit again and at the game was really very, very special regarding come runs because it was one, two, three, four and 5. So that's my number one. That's my number one that again that is with 400 and around 19. I was 17 years old when Fernando Valenzuela had that incredible 1981 season. What do you remember about that? As a uni year, women see on the late season like but one he joined 1980 to me the Fernando mania study my team lady not 81, started on the last series of the year against the asterisk. I know he wasn't visualized as it started. Maybe he was in the bullpen 1980. And that is when the people realized how special he was because he saved one game. He won another game. He didn't have nothing to do in the third game when the rajas tied the Astros then we had an extra game and some people were asking for Fernando to start the game, but I think la soda was right not giving the ball to him because he had never started a game. He was used to a few weeks with a dual club and things like that and that was a key game. So he came, I think, who started the game. I think is that Jerry Royce? It wasn't really, you know, it was in general residual, because it was supposed to study the game, the deciding game. But I'm talking about the area. So it was a cliff. The in Fernando came in the 6th inning with a big game was already in favor of the ASTRO Negro picture beautiful game and he was a 56 to three or something like that when Fernando came in it was too late and they asked us one so they went to the series and they just got to wait an extra year 81 to do that. The last I saw you, it was when I think it was the day before the memorial service for Vin Scully and you related the story to me about after games you and Vince Scully and some of the Dodger coaches would get together in a Roman and share some wine. How much fun was that? Those are precious precious times because especially in Cincinnati beats to urban dose series, Vinny Velasquez really the lord of the problem secretary together as a room on the top of the hotel so we can get together after the game and he used to get a room upstairs and then it was vain. Wallace believed and myself. And some wines, some crackers and cheese there. And so we started practically just listening to vin he will give us so many stories and accumulate so many anecdotes and experiences that was unbelievable, beautiful, really, there was about I will say 30 minutes, 45 minutes, one hour. It was then you start talking exchanging views, but it was written, who really, really was marvelous in that regard. Marvelous, wow. When you told me that story, that stuck with me, the image that you get into share that time within. Well, I appreciate your time, sir. And congratulations. And I hope to see you Dodger Stadium next year. Let's hope so. I will be there. I will be there. You're watching some games, not too often. Not every day, but I shall be there because I have a baseball in my veins and there will be tough to just forget about this board. I am grateful with the dangers for giving me the chance to stay that long during the games and have enjoyed very, very much now it's just looking forward and hoping that they say goodbye to me with another World Series like the one that had that I had when I started with the values 1959 months 50 years they won the royal series.

"To get on the road again. I'm going to harmonize with that every time when you play that music now. Okay. Okay, so last week I'm Lyft driving, right? And I get this close about 8 o'clock at night, maybe 8 30 and I got what's it called an alert to go to Worcester and pick up somebody. So I go there. And I pull up on this side street in Worcester and I'm waiting a couple minutes, finally, out comes this 19 year old kid. And he gives me the one finger like, wait, I'm gonna be right with you. Okay. Yeah, the first finger sample hold on one minute. So I wait there. And he comes out with these suitcases, like 5 of them. And they were the big kind. Like you're traveling to Europe and you're going to bring in everything you have in your house. The kind you can barely lift, maybe they had money in there. So I go, okay, this is big. He puts it. I put it in the trunk. Now, you know, I have a grandma key. Trunk. All three of us could fit in that. I got 15 guatemalans in that trunk one time coming across the border. And guess what? No one even questioned it. So I put the ones that got lost in there. I heard. He's still in it. Yeah. In case you get a flat tire and eat something changed. So I put big suitcase in there, okay, here's another one, just like, oh, but it's barely fits in these two giant suitcases. It's just barely fit in the trunk of my grandma key. There's three more suitcases. I look at what? I said, well, where are we going to put these? I said to the guy, where are we going? He says, I said, I'm thinking to the airport. He goes, I don't know, my mom booked the ride. I said, well, okay, but can you ask him why most people know where they're going? Yeah. So you don't know, you don't know until you've officially picked them up, click the button and it tells you. Yeah. Okay. So the kid doesn't we've gone. So I'm like, that's weird because almost everybody I've ever picked up knows where they're going. And he's packed and ready to go, but he doesn't know where he's going. Yeah, guess what, though? He had 5 suitcases. All of them large and two people riding with him. Oh boy. So the Lyft has a thing you can't get in the front seat with a driver. You know, you gotta get it back. So it's gotta be three people. No more than three people in the back seat. Oh, four, if you have a little kid, you can squeeze them in. Someone wants to sit on someone's lap. Yeah, sure. So these three full size 1920 year old kids are gonna get in the back with 5 suitcases, only two of which fit in the trunk, where are the other three suitcases going to go and they were all big. So I said, you know, this isn't going to happen. I totally get it. I said, I'm sorry, but I can't, there's no room. You got to order a van. There's a thing on the lift app where you can get an extra large vehicle if you have a situation like that that's convenient. He didn't do it. So I'm pissed because I've already got two suitcases in a trunk. I'm in the middle of this one way road blocking traffic. There's three guys. I'm trying to explain to them, and they didn't understand the mothers. She comes out, she goes, Logan airport. I said, well, no. You're going to stay right here in Worcester. You're going to have to call somebody else. Drive right down the street because there was another ride waiting for me. I pick up this woman as she gets it before she gets in the car. Another woman walks by me, and she stops the window, she goes. She goes, I'm living in a tent and I don't have any money. What town is this? What's wrong? Yeah, of course. I said, I don't carry cash. I'm a Lyft driver. And she goes, and she walks away. She gets ten feet down the road, and she starts getting beat up by this dude. He says, give me my money. Screaming at her. And she says, I don't have it. Give me my money, and she's like, he's got his hands around her neck. He's choking her and he's pushing her around like trying to shove her down on the ground. I said, I got to call 9-1-1 and then my other ride gets in. I said, before we go, I said, I'm just going to call 9-1-1. This lady over here is getting choked to death or whatever, so I call 9-1-1 and I told him what was going on. And I went back up to try to stop the guy for a second. I had already called. I said, I just called the cops, you know, I was just so you know, you know, you should stop doing. He goes, go ahead, call the cops, 'cause he was really beaten on her. Well, man. So I drive away as we get to the corner street a salutation goes out to the Worcester police department. They were at the bottom of the hill when I got down to the bottom of hill right after they got there fast. Good. But I mean, I'm thinking to myself, well, this woman, first of all, she's probably a bum or a whore or a drug addict. There's something. Maybe all three. She might be a camper. It would be all three. Trifecta. She's a camper. I'm thinking, why am I doing Lyft driving? I mean, I'm involved in this stuff, you know? And the gun I have isn't that not only got the guy could have had a gun. You never know. I was going to go back and just challenge him. Did you have to say, hey there, tough guy? You're going to beat your big man beating her up. You want to try your luck with me? I'll kick you right in your testicles. I'd like to see that. Anyway, that's one ride that continued into another ride. Who's chewing gum? It's me. Am I making noise? Hell yeah. I'm doing this for 50 fucking years. Did you bring enough for everybody? Chewing gum into a microphone. I did bring enough for everybody. If you have a teacher ever make you put it on your nose when you didn't bring enough for everybody. Okay, take a put it on your nose. Maybe swallow it. And everybody said, swallow, the government's going to stay in your belly for four years. But four years, they used to tell us 7. Oh, gum, you said. You sick. All right, I'm sorry. Thank you. So what lesson did we learn, Mike? Nothing. I already learned some lessons. No more Lyft driving in Worcester after dark. Well, you know, normally I have pretty good luck, you know, I mean, I get when you're driving a grim more key. Nothing good happens. First of all, you're going to be the first choice for every hot woman over 80. You know, they see the grandma key and they go, oh. Man. Look at him. For the first time in years. Over here, over here. Super Bowl, do you have any thoughts because I really don't? Super Bowl. It was last year's Super Bowl was one of the lowest rated and this one here was one of the highest. Heard that today. LA thing. KFI, which is in Los Angeles. Last year was like 99 million this year. It was like a $120 million like that. So significant more. I hate the overkill of Super Bowl Sunday. I hate the lead up. I didn't watch any. I didn't watch it. I started to watch the halftime show. I gotta tell you something. You know how I feel about that type of music hip hop rap. I'm just not into it. I don't understand it. I don't have any special feelings for any of the people who perform it. I don't think I'm entertained by it. And I'm certainly not enlightened by it because I can't understand it. Now I admit that. And I know that there's a whole generation of people that followed me into the world of the world and if they love it. And they love it. And I don't know why they love it. Because I just have no way to so I thought the production looked good. It had a whole they had those little houses out there and they were going from a room to room and was a well produced thing. But I don't give two shits about what they're saying or singing, so I can't tell you that I got anything out of it. I like that music. I grew up with that music. And it's not my favorite, but I do enjoy it and you're right. The production value was pretty good. But I thought the show was kind of weak. I thought the performance was hip hop performances are not meant for that kind of space. They need more people around them to kind of feel that energy and everything. It was flat too. And how old is Eminem now? 45. 5 years old. 57. Hold on. Let me ask you, hold on, ready? How old is Eminem? Eminem is 49 years old. Wow. My mom's 50. Mike mathers. You still get Marshall. Not Mike. Marshall. He's still doing the gerrymanders as the beaver. But he dresses like he's 14 years old. He's always angry. I mean, Jesus, come on. Fuck him. But I like his stuff. Okay. I don't really care about it at all. But I think the show is that I think they have time shows that good and it was just I don't know, Mary J. Blige was uninteresting to.

"It sure would be nice if the players could get a fair deal so that we could have it on time. Because it's pretty rad. Yep. Yep, yeah, someone suggested if the lockout goes on long enough that we just do blessed from the past effectively wowed episodes where we discussed these things as if they are happening in the moment, which is not a bad idea. Yeah. That doesn't continue indefinitely. What else here, Mike Marshall's 106 relief appearances in 1974? We mentioned that when he passed away recently, and yes, I'm sure we would have been just stupified by what he did then. I guess it was a little less remarkable just in the context of picture usage back then, but even so it was an outlier that we would have marveled at. Ken Phelps versus Henry kodo, which was a big Bill James kind of undervalued player type debate, I guess that would have been something the Montreal Geoffrey laurier saga, Harvey haddocks and his 12 inning perfect game in a loss. The All-Star Game tie, that would have been a big one, probably. Sure, Sammy's Sosa's corked bat. What else do we have here? I guess just like the invention and integration of various equipment. And they started using catchers protective gear and gloves and batting helmets and such we would have had a lot to talk about there. The home run bar bouncing off of Jose canseco's head. Yeah. The Jay burner trade. The Ken griffey Mike Cameron trade. Yes. I doubt we would have foreseen how that played out ultimately. Yeah. Atlanta and Minnesota going worse to first and being World Series teams and the game 7 pitchers duel and Jack Morris and all the rest. I think this is a good one run Ghent signing the biggest single season contract in baseball history before the 94 season and then having it voided and getting released after a dirt bike accident, which is something that I feel like used to happen more often, like the baseball player getting injured in a non baseball injury or like another sport injury. I mean, baseball players still get hurt in all sorts of weird ways. But like the Jeff Kent, the run Ghent, the Aaron Boone, the like I was on my ATV. I was playing pick up basketball and I broke my leg or whatever. It seems like that doesn't happen as often or get reported as often anymore. So maybe players are more careful. Yeah, that's just because Madison Bumgarner is too good a rodeo. That happened. Yeah. That was something. Matt Holliday, not touching home or touching home against the Padres.

They're not exactly a forgotten franchise to most of us but the fact is that they played their final game almost seventeen years ago. I was there so they want a salute this week especially for our younger listeners. Montreal joined the national league.

First choice that would have been the auto started a modular sporting facility was constructed of nineteen linked pre cast concrete grandstands. Each forty seats wide arranged around a central field. Very strange jerry. Park turned out to be a better choice however and it was hurriedly expanded to twenty eight thousand seats in time for the expos inaugural campaign which was less than stellar as the club went fifty two in one hundred ten finishing forty eight games behind the and world champion new york mets. The arrival of major league baseball in french-speaking quebec necessitated a whole new vocabulary. Buster knuckleball la ball papillon which is literally ball floating about wings aflutter.

Tri-color logo deserves an entire segment unto itself of course and the team featured a host of great players and hall of famers including gary carter. Tim raines and andre dawson. They fielded a series of championship caliber. Clubs including the nineteen ninety-four. Four version whose dreams were cut short when that season ended in a labor dispute in august leaving expo fans to wonder what might have been. The team was seventy four and forty. When things shutdown attendance declined as the club's shed players the franchise languished at olympic stadium and the expos played a quarter of their home schedule in puerto rico in both two thousand three and two thousand four in two thousand five. The club of course moved to washington dc where they play today as the washington nationals but but for thirty six seasons the expos where no sophomore. Our loved ones to montreal fans.

That's when i got the autograph. I wanted to get from the only player. I focused on that day and that was former dodger. Willie davis who was traded for mike marshall. Who would win the cy young award for his performance said year. But jerry park near my heart. What are your memories of baseball up there when you've gone there so i never made it to jerry park which means i've totally jealous of you buster but you had greater proximity having grown up where you did remind yeah. Wasn't that drive but growing up in new york. I did get to one game at olympic stadium it was nineteen eighty eight Went up there with a couple of buddies. And let's face it if you're in your twenties and you wanna do a little baseball road trip. There are far worst places to go than montreal so We enjoyed every single piece of it. It was amazing. What an incredible city. But i remember a couple of things. Buster first of all olympic stadium. Let's face it. Not a top caliber stadium. It was very dreary in there. The roof was permanent permanently. Closed by then but i remember it's just so strange. They played the dodgers. And i remember these just vast hallways. It was a gigantic place. The and remember some strong canadian beer on soaked up all of the atmosphere. And i i do have to say you know. I've been to montreal several times since then. Just an amazing city. I love the fact that i can drive. There feels like you're you're driving to europe or something. And i do hope that montreal gets a major league club again at some point and hopefully get downtown stadium. Yeah and your descriptions perfect about baseball in in the oh how it was kinda dreary but on the other. Hand me as a group as a dodger. Fan Never forget when they played against expos nineteen eighty-one and in the ninth inning. Rick monday hitting a home run. And i've told this story before about how is running. Cross country is a senior. That fall and i waited and waited and waited before joining practice. Mister mooney my coach was not happy about that. Burst into the room is is the team. Meeting was underway. I was like the dodgers took the lead and he didn't wanna hear it. I don't think he was too happy that i was sitting down there listening to the dodger game of the radio while they're having practice. You know musters blue monday. That's it that was it exactly. This makes quiz all right guys here. We go this. Was the most recent expansion team to win. Its first ever regular season game. Was it the devil. Rays the marlins the royals or the blue jays most recent expansion team to win its first ever regular season game. Devil rays marlins royals or bluejays all right delaware he got. I think i got this one. I feel like devil raises the obvious and sir i'll go devil rays algal marlins foster you didn't over think it this week was the marlins they beat your your childhood team. The dodgers six to three in nineteen ninety-three and i totally remember watching that on tv. Charlie huff throwing papillon balls all over the map that that's exactly why remember it was old charlie huff who if i remember correctly he was a smoker so between innings when they would panic the dugout..

"Also had you know tomatoes thrown at me at point in time not really not literally over my mean we all point right of course but that's okay but that was very very nice description and it is you know when you go through it. You try to paint a picture when i'm listening to great storytellers almost like when vince gully does a game back in the mc like when he's when the great. Vince gully talking baseball. When vince scully's talking baseball don't you feel like when he was gonna brought to you. They're like you're sitting next to him and he's trying to explain to you and the he's a wordsmith without being a guy who think why is he trying to use those words and he just the description like i. I always go back to the call with kirk gibson when he said in a. Let me see if i got this. He said in the most improbable seasons the impossible has happened. I mean he let the gibson turns on that back door rector slider by by eckersley in hammers it without even with no legs just all arms after looking brutal in the batter's box and fallen down to his knee and i'll never forget that when he stepped in the batter's box i'm telling i i was sitting in a bed back in i was it was east coast time now remember. That game was dodger status for three hours different time in hamilton ontario earlier that earlier that day after walk through in practice i had gone over by myself to the canadian side of niagara falls and took pictures and stood down looking at niagara falls. And it's like an eerie feeling. Ooh that's a long way down right but it's such an impressive. So i'm going through and i just kind of take. I always like to take time on my own and games and and it was a big game. It gets another good quarterback and it was great cup season which we know went on and won the championship. And i just been in canada the month or so whatever it was but i went there by myself. Checked it out and then went back. And i was excited because the first baseman mike marshall i was in his wedding one of my very best friends and i not named dropping but obviously vested because i love him and steve sax to were both ushers in the wedding and mike was one of my dearest friends and so i'm thinking about the got a big game tomorrow the next day..

Pete alonzo accused major league baseball of altering the ball's physical properties in order to depress the salaries of free agents alonzo who was asked for thoughts about mlb's crackdown on pitchers using foreign substances. Dismiss that aspect as a non factor for him before making his claim he said. The biggest concern is mlb manipulates. The baseball's year in and year out depending on the free agency class and then he added. It's not a coincidence. It's definitely is something they did. Alonzo pointed to a pair of recent developments as evidence for his claim the juicing of the ball during the two thousand nineteen season after which seven of the top ten free agents were pitchers and the subsequent deadening of the ball. This year ahead of a hitter. Heavy free agent class whereas mlb set an impossible number of home run records in two thousand nineteen the league as a whole is on pace in two thousand twenty one for the lowest batting average and the highest strikeout rate in its history.

I mean wild thing. The record for walks in thirty season with mike marshall but that's volume related. Yeah who just passed by the way and he won a cy young award and he deserved it schedule. A ridiculous baseball three games today. The first ones at five for some reason. So we gotta watch nick panetta. I'm gonna watch james madison and college softball world series. I gotta tell you. I don't mind another tangent here but if you're listening to this show is a tangent. Every five minutes the college softball world series has been so much fun to watch. I'm loving it. I'm loving it. And yes every five minutes. I say to my wife. Why can't i hit like that. But the point is i love watching as james madison as never been here before and then they wanna game and then somehow good job. They're playing baseball two thirty in the morning on saturday because they had to get the game in anyway two games. I think they're on espn today. I'm a company may three three college world series games. Go to college. was there. okay. I thought you meant the mlb ones yeah. You're right now in the college world series two games i wanted to pitch. Odyssey steve's listening and anyway on mlb schedule one on espn albert osceola and ryan. Weather's you have to be more interested in la even against padres because he has shot to get win and whether or not yes any as a shot to have a to start week for you so keep that in. Mind that That rotation has a little bit uncertain for the week is. That's based on whether kohl stewart makes a pitch There but i love what else on the slider spent performing extremely well. The control has been better than i expected. I use them here and more importantly would you use royals right hander. Jackson co makes his major league. Debut at the angels and luckless dylan. Bundy two weeks ago. We loved alec mono of toronto for saudi ingrate against yankees. Second outing not so great bunch of home runs and we should not compare co are to minoa in terms of skills or chance for a win today or really much of anything. He had major minor league numbers. He's really good. That team has autonomy. And and upton and nobody else really. I mean renaissance not hitting so would you and co. Our second outing of the week is against who seventy at oakland. Which isn't horrible Big ballpark it's not favorable. Would you activate co on a weekly right now or minoa for for the to starts versus one. Absolutely i don't have a problem with either one matchups wise for the week manolas Forget which one. What feeling no has the white sox. I'll have to look. I think he does yes. Yeah which i mean. Granted righty you want to write a going up against them. In cars case here the road part of it is what bothers me and it actually is what deflates his projection. But we see the very ability of young players. Logan gilbert we can bring into this. He struggled at the beginning. Now had some decent outings and his pass to Road and to pitching friendly parks but not great matchups on paper. But i'm going with the volume here. I think he's highly likely to make those two starts and the first start as i've said the matt says if you're gonna use a prospect that this time to do it it's an start number one all right. So jackson co will keep an eye on him and we'll probably discuss that on thursday Two thousand general if you're ranking him overall today without seeing him. I'm going to say this people are gonna think it's weird. I have no idea what he did in aaa means very little to me so until i see him in the majors i thought logan gobert was going to be a monster. I still think he's gonna be great. I have no idea what color is going to do. I say this. Adding guys like cooper and gilbert minoa. I've got zack. Davies in a league where it's been really. I have no bench and it's hard to release pitchers. I would rather have core just on the shot that he's really really good that a lot. Like i would rather core than dylan bundy right now. What bundy's doing is hurting fantasy team and is a third into the season. I know it sounds crazy. I ranked bundy. Oh co are now i will. But why would you keep going with dylan bundy like it's just not happening. It's not something's wrong. it's not working. Pick up a kid see what he does. Pick up the braves lefty and see what he does. His name escapes talker tucker davidson tucker davidson. I can pick up tucker davidson to replace zak. Abc in the league. And i'm thinking of doing it. Because i know a davies is offering just not even going five innings. Never gonna win. Yeah so and if he's i mean he doesn't get the case to warrant the spot in your fantasy roster if he's not doing any of the things you're describing colored by the way i'd keep singing the praises the pitching friendly kauffman stadium confines. I mean that is one of the most homer deflating ballparks. If not the most so in baseball. And i don't think people realize that that is a very good thing for a young player trying to adapt to the majors. And i think this is a firm commitment. I think he's up. I think this is his job. Tuesday on espn plus last game of the day zach davies of those cubs at san diego de nelson lament since our last show..

"For you right here. That'll be okay. Thank goodness. I had a couple days off after that, Um, but I always try to watch. Pardon the interruption because I don't watch a lot event. I don't watch any NBA. I don't watch any NHL. I want to know some of the stories that may or may have missed her stuff like that. So I watch party interruptions. So I've watched Pardon the interruption with Tony Kornheiser and Michael wilbon. As much as I can. Usually, I'll DVR it and watch it again. So I'm watching on Wednesday and had a couple of really interesting things. One of them was and I mentioned it referred to it earlier about the relief pitcher, the relief pitcher Mike Marshall, Um I remember watching him pitch. He passed away the other day, and the guys on Petey, I did a little thing for him. Give it a listen a melancholy trails to Mike Marshall, one of the greatest relief pitchers of all time, who holds the record for relief appearances in one season in both leagues from Minnesota in the American League for the Dodgers in the National League. Died at 78. If you grew up in the era of the closer, your idea of a relief pitcher is a guy who comes into the game in the ninth inning pitches that inning and goes home. He does this, maybe two or three times a week. In the era before the closer Mike Marshall pitch multiple innings multiple times a week in 1974. Marcia won the Cy Young because he pitched 208 innings as a reliever. He pitched in 106 games for the Dodgers that year. He finished 83 of them. At one point Marshall pitched in 13 consecutive games. No reliever will ever approach these numbers again. Marshal pitched for nine teams over 15 seasons. And, of course, they called him Iron Mike because he went out there basically every day. Yes. And now there would be some analytics obsess GM calling down to the dugout to tell the manager to get him out because he gave up to bloops singles to right, And this is one of the major things wrong with baseball. Yeah, And it is one of the major things wrong with baseball, And you see you guys using the bullpen so often, what Major league baseball is thinking about doing is limiting the number of pictures you can have on your roster. And by doing that you also are going to be forced to have your starters go longer, right? Okay. And by doing that, you're not going to be able to have your starters come out and throw as hard as they can for four innings. Going to have to pace themselves a little bit like they used to do, and by doing that you'll get more balls in play because the ball will be hit more often. It's not a bad thing. It all could work because we've all baseball has talked about is putting the ball in play more having more action. Well, if the pictures out throwing 100 miles an hour in the first inning and because they're trying to pace themselves to go six or seven innings instead of four. For five innings that it might be better for the game of baseball. And here, you see a guy Mike Marshall 103 games. He pitched one as a reliever. I remember him just working every time I would see a game he worked in just about every game. I'm really fixated. I didn't realize he was 78. Yeah. Where has the time gone battle Seriously, But yes, that that is such old school approach. But I'm wondering how the players union would react to this because less pitchers on a roster which means less opportunities for some noble Biggs. You probably had the same number of players just less pitcher, right, right. But I'm saying for the segmented picture position. I don't know if that would be an issue, but Yes, I agree with you in that it the the residual effect would be getting more excitement back in the game. I think if they limited okay, there's 26 players on the roster. Now they update from 25 year ago. So if you have 12 or 13 pitchers is the Max 13 pitchers 13 position players and you can't have more than that. Do you have five starters that still gives you eight relievers? That should be enough? But I mean, you look at what the what? Let's see. Yesterday, the Tigers use three sacks only used to Two days ago when I was sitting here yesterday on Friday, the Cubs, the white sacks, the Tigers and Giants combined to use 24 pictures. 24 pictures in one game right each game use 12 1 team U 71 Guy's five and the other to both U six. Hey, we need all those teachers for those lopsided games, so we don't have to watch the first baseman pitch. You should you should have a were a situation where reliever can come in and go an ending or two or three. And that's the way baseball always used to be. And it's all changed because it was always more important to have an extra bench guy than you know, extra relievers. Now the whole game has changed. Everything is flipped. You've got guys trying to go four innings you want. You want to pull guys before they get to the lineup for the third time and all that stuff that it's that push. Pull, right. God you have you have more relievers who now they're using them in shorter stints, and you have to reverse that trend. Yeah. So I'm interested to see if baseball can do that. You know, I do that before I'd make bring bigger bases. Well, bigger bases. They say we're gonna put bigger bases in so maybe they'll be more steel attempts. No, wait, Is that what it is? That's what's missing in baseball is stolen bases. Yeah, I don't think so. No, you know, and and I know it's a stupid thing. Hey, if we're making them bigger, faster, stronger, Why can't they steal bases without a bigger base? What they do in softball, and I know in some, um some softball leagues. They have the base where it's Unfair territory and under file territory, right..

"It's beginning the year, probably in left. And would have moved over to center when Louise Robert got hurt, if not for his own injury. You know this lasted longer much longer than he thought. That team thought he had a setback along the way. But, you know, I mean, he's a great defensive player. He's already been, you know, a finalist for Rawlings Gold Glove Out in center field. He's really starting to find his offense in the last year and a half or so. So it's a big edition for the tax. I'm sure no one is, um it sounds cliche, but it's probably true. With what he's gone through to get here, and no one's more excited to be back on Adam Angle. Yeah, you know, you watch more than enough baseball in your your days. Bullpens are so hard to figure out to do was that three days ago You got bummer, and Marshall and Hendricks and his three per nearly perfect innings. Everything works fine. The next day, Hoyer and Marshall they each gave up three runs in one inning. Is it going to be that way all year? Do you expect this bullpen to finally get things together instead of to get a little bit better and more consistent? I think the bullpen is good overall, right? I mean, I think from 1 to 8, you have a very talented through there, but I think every bullpen you see goes through stretches right where I mean, there's There's you know, times where they're unhittable. They gave up one run and a combined 35 innings. And there's times where they have stretches where they give up. If you run here and there, you know, even Liam Hendriks when he talked the other day before he went into his explanation of his ass. Lagos Construction. It would be really interesting to see at this point. I have that. But, you know, he said that he wasn't where he wanted to be. You know completely the first month and he was pretty good. In the first month. He just gave up a couple The home run late in games that that changed things, so I think, you know, bullpens art. Completely imperfect, right? You may have the the greatest talent around and it's just not going to run it smoothly as you want every time And then there are some stretches where you look at it and say, Geez, we got this lined up. You know, we got Bummer. The seven you know Hoyer Marshall, the eighth Henry synonyms and other young guys we can, you know, put in there and you know Jace fries on his way back at an injury rehab with other police Charlotte right now. I I think the key thing on this bullpen is a talent is absolutely I forgot. Cara Crochet, by the way, uh, keep peace down there. But, you know, it's an absolutely talented group, and it's just Think more often than not. It's going to be a plus for the team. Sometimes you just you just don't have when you're making 68 70 appearance of the year. You're not, you know, Unless you're Mariano Rivera and your absolute prime, You're not going to be perfect or Dennis accurately after Munich. We perfect every single time. I was listening to PT earlier this week, and I, uh you'll appreciate this. But Mike Marshall passed away the other day, and I didn't know this and we're going to play the cut later on. But one year he finished with 208 innings, pitched out of the bullpen, and he finished 83 games If I'm not mistaken, um well, we ever see a time where things change, or is it always going to be this way? Now with the way bullpens are Because, you know, I guess they've talked about limiting the number of pitchers and trying to make starters go longer. There's so many things in baseball right now. They're trying to figure out how to make things different. Do you think things are gonna go back to where they used to be or think we're pretty much set with way bullpens are now Didn't have, like 108 appearances one year too. I mean, he was It was pretty amazing. But I mean, on the converse looking like some of the starters, Uh, somehow we're talking about Fergie Jenkins in the press box yesterday. I mean, look at the years he had with the Cubs, where he had like It was regular for him to have 25 to 26 complete games a year. You know, it's it's it's I mean, you know things change in life overall, right? It's it's never The same from year to year. I think one of the things that helps the socks is they have a great starting rotation, so the bullpen is going to be less used for the most part because of the fact that you have guys like Giolito Kaegel Lynn Rodan thief and then you know at times when Kopeck is healthy and back, they'll move him in there off and on who can go deep in the game? Maybe not as much Co because he won't go to the games even when he is starting, But The first five guys, for the most part consistently work deep in the games. You know, I mean, so I think that helps me But I think God of the days of you know Bruce Sutor getting three innings saves whose guys is getting three innings saved. This is Specialized bullpen. You know you have a guy for the seventh. The really good teams have a guy or two for the seven a guy or two for the eighth and then a set closer and guys who can jump into that closed his role at the closures. Pitch five times in seven days or something to that effect, so I don't expect to see any clothes. They're finishing a game in three innings you may see like a long reliever picking up the last four in a game where the team is well ahead. But yes, I think you know it's you're not going to see the Huge amount of complete games anymore, and you're not going to see relievers. Pitch multiple multiple innings to get there. It's just the way the game is now it's more of a specialization is more kind of a dozen of the playoffs. Playoffs are really you know, you get a started through five, maybe six. And then you go from there. That's why I will never again. I can. I can 99.6% guarantee will never again see what the White Sox did in 2000 and five of the LCS. You'll never C four straight complete games in a playoff series. With what to out short of 1/5 complete game, so that will never happen again. Well, but there's a point for a chance. Yeah, we just went flying from a seven numbers. So you're saying I got a chance already? We got a chance. Scott. What would we have to see for the Sox to add another bad at the trade deadline? Obviously angle being back. Hopefully he can find His offensive game again. We know that here is rock solid defensively, what would have to happen for them to really improve themselves at the trade deadline? Rick and spoke to us in Cleveland. And, you know, he kind of made it clear that it was a little early to be considering it because they don't know the situation where the Loi they don't know the situation with Louise Robert when they know the situation, but they don't know the exact Specifics of when there's a target for them to come back yet, and I think you know they like the group they have, so I don't and they also are not going to dismantle. I'm sure there's gonna be plenty of teams. That as the deadline approaches, if not already I know this happened last year, they're going to ask about Nick Maduro. They're going to ask about Garrett Croce. They're going to ask about Michael Kopek. The thing with the white sacks now, though,.

"Not enforcing it a strictly anymore. But they just won't be accustomed to using it or maybe they would just start using it then since then it would matter even more in the incentive would still be there. Yeah i i mean. I think that we're about to see a pretty dramatic shift if this is gonna be taken seriously at the big league level. I think you're gonna see a lot of guys who really gonna figure out. Do different thing and so i think this might be a situation where the the strict enforcement at the major league level actually is what ends up being a chilling effect. The part that i'm really curious to see is what effect it has on amateur players like because if you watch a college game you see the same set of things i imagine that the substances they have access to you or perhaps different but you know you still see guys going to their hat and under their belts and must around in the glove and so i imagine that part of that is due to the fact that they understand there will not be for the ones who have big league. Aspirations that there will not be A serious culture of enforcement around foreign substances and so they want to have as much spin as they can on their fastball. Or naw other pitches for that matter. And so i wanna see what the knock on effects are outside of affiliated ball too. Because you know you can't it would be a real shame. Nephew got drafted with one thing. And then they're like oh he can't do that thing again. Yes and the last thing. I wanted to mention is that mike. Marshall passed away on monday at age. Seventy eight the former pitcher of the sixties and seventies and early eighties. He pitched for fourteen years and he had quite a career. Of course most famously won the cy young award in nineteen seventy four. But had i think a four top five finishes five top ten finishes in the cy young award race and just really one of the best baseball reference pages. Because your mind boggles when you look at some of the seasons that he had in the way that he was used in those years with the expos in dodgers and other teams and he was also very much a trailblazer when it came to biomechanical analysis and trying to prevent injuries and optimized performance and. Jeff passan has a piece up at espn about that. Now which i will link to but that was something. I heard all the time talking to for the mvp machine. Who cited mike marshall as an influence the way that he was thinking of these things in a really counterintuitive and kind of i kind of classic way. And you know maybe some of his claims were were a bit exaggerated and certainly. He was a prickly personality and wasn't always the the most persuasive of it came to getting people on board with his techniques but in the use of slow motion video and talking about what we now know is shifted wake and spin axis of these things. He was really ahead of his time so he kind of gave rise. I think to a lot of the way that pitching development works now but on the other hand the way that he pitched is not at all in evidence in today's came and we got a question about that from lewis ner. Shane who said the baseball world learned about the passing of mike marshall. Today this was earlier this week. Someone i have quite the spot for because of his unicorn like usage marshalls used to me resembles a reverse starter. You would be asked to work anywhere from one to six innings and broke records for pitcher appearances games finished and more and even won the cy young award in nineteen seventy four. My question is why do you think this. Form of pitcher usage has never really caught on the as a potential avenue for new developments in pitching usage with the rise of the opener as a strategy and with joe musgrove pitching five innings in relief to finish the game against the astros sunday. I can't help but feel it's odd that this type of usage hasn't at least been experimented with by more teams over recent years any thoughts on this and really i mean it looks like not just another era but some sort of alien world or something when you look at his line from nineteen seventy four hundred. Six games pitched eighty three games finished. Twenty one saves two hundred eight and a third innings pitched. It's just wild that he was used all the time like that and racked up that kind of workload and that was in the days. When you had starters go in two hundred and fifty three hundred innings you will work horses but he was used for not quite as many innings. But just all the time i mean. Most of the team's games he was being used. And we don't see anything like that. Now where the innings limits and the pitch counts are stricter than ever but also teams are stricter. Never when it comes to like using pitchers on back to back. Days are back to back to back days. So do you think this could ever come back into vogue. Might we ever see another martial style. Pitcher is there anything teams could learn from that model. Oh the answer to that question me neither. I mean we haven't seen it so probably not like the the whole trend over time has been less and less usage and fewer appearances so it it would take a real sea change but if you could have someone who capitulated that would be immensely valuable to you especially in this era. It's just. I don't know who has the arm to do it or could train to do it. And it's just so out of step with the times. And i i imagine that the real answer to that question like if we had a magic wand that could reveal to us the players for whom doing this is feasible from an injury prevention perspective. Where you don't have to be as concerned about wear and tear for whatever reason i imagine that teams would be like And then they would and then they would elect to have some of those guys because those are valuable guys especially as were and an era where it seems like. We are very likely to have limitations. On how many pitchers you can have on the roster right and so you wanna have guys who can who can really do The proposed here. But we don't have that. And so. I think that what what will likely happen is that you continue to see Pitcher usage dip or at least plateau. Because you don't if you're wrong right if you don't have the magic wand and you are overtaxing a guy the risks you and to the player is potentially catastrophic right. it's a very might be career altering and and the downside to not doing that is just that he doesn't go quite as long. And so i think that that risk reward calculus is always going to lend itself toward throwing fewer pitches rather than more. And you're gonna have guys who sort of volunteer to throw more than that and there are you know. Like if you're a guy who can go two hundred innings and you can accumulate a bunch of stats. That's valuable not only to the team but to potentially right. It might make you well compensated in free agency and it might boost numbers get you paid in arbitration. But i think that not just for those reasons but to to really try to manage load for guys and keep them as healthy as possible that you're just gonna see teams really reticent to do that and even the guys who volunteer bauer wanted to throw every day not every day but he wanted to throw really often anyone to throw a lot and i think that the the number of players who are going to be keen to sort of volunteer for that kind of a workload is going to be limited because they're also concerned about the health of their arms and probably wanting to pitch enough to be valuable and to stay a starter and to be compensated like one but are gonna be mindful about sort of -taining their health so that they can go as many seasons as possible and so. I think those things are likely to counterbalance it. Some young think. Russell carson has written about the potential for some sort of hybrid role where it's kind of in the middle. It's not the one in guy and maybe it's not exactly a long man. But maybe you'd like a three inning reliever or something and we kind of don't even have a term for that that is in common usage because it so rare now and as you see the lines blur between starters and relievers and you know you look at like the rays pitching staff and it's like what is. This is an opener. This of bulk guys. Just something in the middle..

He does this maybe two or three times a week in the era before the closer mike marshall pitched multiple innings multiple times a week in nineteen seventy four. Marsha won the cy young because he pitched two hundred eight innings as a reliever he pitched in one hundred and six games for the dodgers that year he finished eighty three of them at one point marshall pitched in thirteen consecutive games. No reliever will ever approach these numbers again. Marshall pitched for nine teams over fifteen seasons and of course they called them iron mike because he went out there basically every day.

But off a mike marshall who was a relief pitcher of the year the year before he dated. That girl that was in the bangles are are what what was that girl. That singer I can't think she was. I think it was the bengals from one of those groups. Anyway sorry i. I had a no net. I've tried to remember named brenda. Somebody carlisle brinda. Yeah yeah really cute. Yeah yeah so anyway. So i get up. I ended up and he says now button to first base because he said if you bought the first chances are steve. Garvey was planted time. Eight ballplayer said. Steve probably won't throw to second. I don't know if his arm was bothering more. So i get the sacrifice. I think pete walk and we get a base hit. We win the game two to one and probably the most important bad. I hadn't all of the big leagues. Because if i don't but it then sparky probably sends me back down to triple a ball. 'cause that was going to be what i would have to be doing most of the year we do a whole show on how to put down a bond. I mean i it really could or you watch league game. You can see how not to put down button. They don't know how to but they don't do it much anymore. And i never understood that as a pitcher when you can help yourself. Why not be able to bunt the ball. And and you know so. I i don't know but it's it's a different game but man in the seventies when i look back at the guys i played against and played with. I mean what a blast. Let's talk about the world series and then we're going to okay you get into you get with the red your with you guys go the world series and you win it to two years in a row. Yeah the the the first year there was so much pressure on the big red machine to win. 'cause in seventy got beat by baltimore seventy two that got beat by oakland. Seventy-three got beat by the mets and the playoffs. Seventy four. they disappeared seventy five now. We actually were nineteen and twenty. Was our record. We went to montreal. We came back riverfront stadium and we were just a five hundred or a little bit below five hundred ballclub. We plan to mets. Tom seaver pitching. We ended up with an game. Eleven to four and win forty one out of the next fifty and that kind of we had a big lead. I think we won by twenty that year. We just had a huge lead. We just kept rolling. That was the west bacteria. then that was the west. Yeah we had to beat the dodgers if you beat the dodgers then you pretty much because they were always good so we go in the world series and now there's so much pressure because he's the best team like mickelson before he won the master's yes a best team to never win it with the big red machine. But they've been there but they just haven't win so now we end up car bernie carbo hits the three run homer in game six fisk hits the home run vs the red sox versus the red sox would go to game seven and i'll never forget. My locker was next to pete's and a rider says peach. Gotta be devastated man. This was it the big red machine. You had the game. Europe six to three. You know this is what's going to solidify.

We'll make another fourteen thousand thirty thousand dollars. This year makes much money's my mom. My dad does so sure enough. The next night we win the game and then the following year seventy six man. We just rolled because it was like the pressure's all off.

Don't even have one leader had four and you had you know spanish black and white. Yeah and so. It wasn't like there were any issues on that ball club. No but they made sure they were the smartest bunch of baseball guys. I've ever seen right. And they were winners will lose it too many of them by the way i you know i was the baby.

Tell me how that figured into your life in in the things that you did and when that became more real to you than before. I was baptized at age twelve. Because i grew up in a christian home. Mom and dad had a church every sunday wednesday night. Bible school everything and pretty much for my early years. I was going to church not realizing what it was like to have a personal relationship with christ so i started playing pro ball and I i remember going to bed. One night and prancing all right lord said. Here's the deal. I'm dating this young girl right now. We're gonna make a little deal in.

"That day in and day out and still win. You also said one time about the yankee culture. The players themselves changed over the years. But they're steadfast commitment to winning. Never did it's an organization that has been blessed with uncanny leadership now knowing the egos that were on that roster where did that leadership come from. How did it emerge well you. We always had somebody in there that we could look at as as a the calming force that guide. That says something that makes us all relax now. We always had guys who were different types of players. That team needs take. Mickey rivers maker rivers is not a team leader but mickey rivers is the guy that makes your club go his comical Funny whenever you get down that things that he does make you laugh and it makes you forget about the problems that you have. So he's a guy that you need on the flip side you have a guy like a munson. Munson is the unquestioned leader. you know. So when when he's gonna speak you're gonna listen you have you have guys like greg lou pinella you have catfish hunter you have guys on that club that you know when you look at them they have this aura about him. You know it's like It's glow when when you watch him play you watch him produce and it and it rubs off on you because they know that they can do it you know that they can do it but they know that you can do you just have to. You just have to accept that you can do it also and and if you do then eventually you get to be like those guys to later on you start. Walking in people started looking at you in the same light as you looked at them. Let's talk about those two seasons two championships in seventy seven. Seventy eight you move into the starting rotation you help lead the yankees to those two straight championships. And in those two years combined listen to this. Gigiri went four no in the postseason with three complete games. Five starts allowing nine earned runs and a high of thirty seven and a third innings pitched. Now the thing. I'm always interested in his complete games. And that's an attitude more than anything else because if you take a look at baseball today ron. It's the guy that goes six innings. Then the middle reliever then the set guy and then the closer. What is the difference in the attitude when you pitch them. What it today. Well i think you have to look at the way the how much the game has changed also because way back then and even if you went further than like say my era of their you the guys in the bullpen were not specialized players. You had guys in the bullpen. Who probably could not crack the starting lineup. They were the best guys that you had. After the best five you had. As starters put in the bullpen they became bullpen pitchers and then slowly. But surely you had this closer that started to evolve and in this. If i'm not mistaken maybe like in the sixties seventies. 'cause you started to see like rollie fingers sparky lyle You know there were more guys. I know right off the top of my head. I'm not gonna alfred hausky you know. Mike marshall Bruce suit you know. There's so many guys out there that started to do that. But that's all specialized players that you had. You didn't have anything that was known as the setup guy and you didn't have anything known as a short man or the longman you just had pitchers who can pitch when you need them but yet as the game has progressed in the last fifteen to twenty years you started to get more More players more specialized players. And you gotta remember too. Because i'm not sure people think about this often fifty years ago they might have had a hundred thousand players in this country who you could pick from the talent to play major league baseball today. They probably have one million so you you have more talent to pick from eventually in the pool and every year it keeps growing it keeps growing. So if you've got more talent to pick from there's gonna be more specialized players whether they're better no. That's not what i'm saying but you have more players to pick from than which you had fifty years ago. We've got about two minutes left before you have to break again. But i go to the nineteen seventy eight season because that one really jumped out to me. I saw a lot of you. Pitching during that. Seventy eight season of course championship season for the yankees. But the things. I remember about the game. California angels on june seventeenth. You struck out a yankee record eighteen. But if you look at your record it's amazing. Twenty five and three. You led the league with a one point. Seven four e. r. a. twenty-five winds nine shutouts and held batters to a one ninety three batting average. When you look back and think about what you did what the you appreciate most about those performances. Well i i remember correctly of a lot of those games came after yankee losses and for me to stop the losses And become what we turn the stopper that was important. Because you know if i lose a game we could go on to lose five or six more but you know what would having having as good as i had and it not just me. I had a great team to pitch for the guys make plays the guys score runs. You know all that constitutes your success or not and it was it. Was it worked pretty well together.
