We all belong outside. We're drawn to nature, whether it's the recorded sounds of the ocean we doze off to, or the succulents that adorn our homes. Nature makes all of our lives, well, better. Despite all this, we often go about our busy lives removed from it. But the outdoors is closer than we realize. With all trails, you can discover trails nearby and explore confidently.

I'd never, ever wanted to get my ass out of bed and come to work more than I do this very morning. Welcome in everybody, bed in woods 97-3, the fan. I'm gonna be hard to fire me up any more than I am this morning and how fired up I was last. I can barely even talk still. I'm a mess. A total, total mess. Welcome in, bed in woods 97-3, the fan. Best win of the year. By far, unquestionably incredible. We will talk about it probably for four hours is my guess. We have like one other story I want to talk about. Other than that, I just want to talk about last night. I want to talk about the rules, the unwritten rules, sensitivity, all of it. I mean, holy smokes. That game last night, I had everything you could ask for if you're a guy like me. Period the end. I'm woodsy. That's Paul Reindel, the executive producer slash audio, audio puller this morning. I just got 75,000 pieces of audio to find. Padre's broadcast, Padre's Korean broadcast, Padre's Spanish broadcast, the Nationals broadcast, the Nationals post game, the Padre's post game, Manny Machado audio, jerks the profile audio, and on and on and on we go. Well done, Paul. Good morning. Yeah, there we go. I need one from Ben. I think this calls for all three of us today. Ben Higgins, your friendly neighborhood sports anchor, joins us as well. I think I did one live yesterday, but yeah, yeah, that was hot. It was hot. That's the reason why we are baseball fans because, you know, let's be honest, baseball fandom is mostly pain. Yeah, even if you're a Yankees fan, you have 27 rings, that's still like 120 years in which your team didn't get the job done at the end and it ends in sadness and, you know, almost half the games ended losses and most at bats for your favorite players and in outs. But every once in a while, you've got a game that brings you so much joy and satisfaction. Yes. I think that was the word for me last night. That was one of the most satisfying experiences watching a sporting event. At least a non playoff sporting event that I can remember in my life, the outcome, the drama, everything you wanted to kind of happen during that game happened for the San Diego Padres, the way you wanted it to happen. I couldn't even again, I couldn't sleep. I mean, after that win last night, I just could not sleep. I was so fired up. Let's run through the let's run through just a quick series of events because here's the thing, Benny, I want to make sure we've got our ducks in a row. Okay. So you let me know if I'm forgetting anything. I need like some music, Paulie in the background, anything. I don't care. Just some music in the background, royalty free. I'd like to run through everything that's transpired in this series. So the Washington Nationals come to town. They're a game and they're a half game back of the San Diego Padres in the wildcard race. So you're looking at this going, all right, we need to, we need to handle business. Pretty hard fought game, you know, Monday night, hard fought game certainly. Nationals really, really come through CJ Abrams, a huge night, pretty fired up playing against his old team that traded him for Juan Soto, who's no longer on the San Diego Padres. CJ Abrams is grinning, looking into the dugout every time he does something. Nick Sensell comes up in the 10th, was it Sensell hits a three run home run, two run home run, they go up three runs in the 10th inning. TJ Abrams climbs over the railing of the dugout. He's cheering, he's beating his chest. All the guys are fired up. Oh my God, this is an unbelievable. We're going to win this game for sure. Nationals closer, Hunter Harvey comes in, blows the game wide over Jackson Merrill, huge, huge knock, drives into Donovan Solano, puts one off the wall, like, Padres are absolutely rolling. Then, Jerksen Profar comes up with the bases loaded, works an incredible AB fouls pitches off, 97 up around the chin, hits the deck, flat on his back, wakes up, dusts himself off, walks it off, is fired up after being, you know, they walked in, Louisa rise intentionally to get to him. He's fired up, he's beaten his chest, he's at his home ballpark. They just scored four runs in the 10th inning to beat the Nationals. The Nationals take exception to him celebrating on his home ballpark after, on his home field, after a walkoff. Jesse Winker left fielder goes into the stance to scream at a fan who's 66 years old. So far so good. Yes. Yes. So far so good. So far so good. They fill their diapers talking about this celebration. They fill their diapers, their announcers fill their diapers, their media fills their diapers. Today is a national chocolate pudding day. And there's chocolate pudding running down the legs of every person attached to Washington National, Nationals. They talked all yesterday about how they took exception to it. So then last night's game starts, Jerkson Profar comes up, the first inning and negative war player catcher, Keebert Ruiz, decides I have enough time in the bigs that I get to now tell a 10 year veteran, Jerkson Profar, how he's supposed to act in his home ballpark after getting dusted and hitting a walkoff single to win the game. Coming back from a three run deficit, I minus point four war player get to get in the face and put my hands on. Jerkson Profar leading vote getter in the National League. I get to put my hands on him and tell him how mad I am. Manny Machado comes up, grabs Keebert Ruiz, pulls him away. Next, next thing you know, the umpires come out. They warn everybody, hey, we're not doing this tonight, benches clear, benches clear, bullpen's clear, then Mackenzie Gore, first pitch, 98 miles an hour to the shin, warnings issued, warnings have been issued, 98 miles an hour to defeat the shin of Jerkson Profar. And somebody said last night, a shin is just as valuable as a head, a back, a leg. Yeah, 100%. So you got one of their play, you got them celebrating one of their players going into the stands. Their catcher putting his hands on our player, then their pitcher hitting our player and we're the problem. We're the problem. You guys are the ones that have taken exception. I think this is, I think this is completely misguided. And it pissed me off that Mackenzie Gore was not immediately thrown out of that game. What better place to throw at somebody if you didn't want people to think it was intentional? Oh, but Woods, he threw his arms up and he was clearly upset. Yeah, you know who else does that? My six year old when I catch him doing something he shouldn't do. I don't know. I didn't do it. Give me an effing break, man. Give me a break. Why are they so sensitive about how we choose to celebrate in our own ballpark, right? Again, like Jerkson Profar beating is just, yeah, walk me again. That's been going on in baseball for a hundred years, a hundred years. Kevin Ruiz is a zero. He's a zero. You don't get to put your hands on Jerkson Profar. You're a zero, man. You're the worst catcher in the league, literally. You don't get to put your hands on him and tell him how to play the game of baseball. If there's anybody on that roster that would have the right to tell Jerkson Profar, hey, bro, we didn't like that last night. We're not going to hit you. Jerkson said, go ahead and hit me. I don't care. Go ahead. I thought he handled himself beautifully last night. And I thought Manny Machado handled himself beautifully last night and let everybody know. That's my captain too. Let everybody know. Don't come in here with your version of the rules in our house, right? It was absolutely absurd and the umpiring crew should be embarrassed. I've never seen that. Ben, have you ever seen warnings issued and then a first pitch at a guy and nobody gets run except our manager? And these are the guys that still are taking exception to it. It makes no sense. No sense. If you, even if you were a Washington Nationals fan and didn't think that Mackenzie Gore threw it Jerkson Profar intentionally, even if you're Mackenzie Gore and you know you didn't throw at him intentionally. You know, you probably have to go in that scenario. It's just the craziest things I've ever seen. It's not only that you can't intentionally throw at someone, you got to make sure you don't let one get away in that situation inside. You just can't. You cannot throw one that gets away inside on the next pitch or you are ejected. You're out. I can't. Mackenzie Gore wouldn't have said one word. If he had gotten thrown out of the game, he would have just nodded and walked to the dug out knowing. Yeah, I deserve it. Some of them. I deserve it. I deserve it. I deserve it. They were they we just cleared the benches. We just had warnings issued to both sides and the very next pitch I throw 98 again. It hits the guy who's at the center of all of this. You go up and in. Our guy walks it off on you and is fired up in his home ballpark and for the 39,000 people, which I promise you, you have not seen in Washington all year. You haven't seen 39,000 in your ballpark are you? You're pissed off that you gave up that you had a three run lead and you blew it. You're pissed off. I understand that. Be mad at Hunter Harvey. Be mad at all the guys on your team. Don't be mad at the guys against one of our fans. Right? You jumped out of your dugout. You hit our player. Why the effort you so upset? If the umpires and I gave this a lot of thought yesterday, if the umpires truly, truly wanted to say something that we weren't sure it was intentional or we didn't think it was intentional. After you eject him after the game, you talk to the league office and go, I don't think a suspension is warranted. We're not 100% sure he throw it. And that's fine. 100%. That's absolutely fine. You can say, you know what? We had to throw it you out, but we're not recommending a suspension or any further discipline after that game. It's been taken care of, punishment issued, ejection from the game. It's now, it's now over. There's not a, you know, normally though, in that situation, you know, not only get ejected, but there's probably a suspension involved for the pitcher as well in a case like that. And maybe that wasn't warranted. I can, I can see the argument where no suspension was warranted. Yeah, I could not care less if you get suspended or not. I walk in to my living room and I say, if you do this again, you're going to time out and my kid does exactly what he just, what I just told him not to do. And then I go, just joking. You're, you're kidding me. That umpire, by the way, what does he, he look like 17 years old. He's got no business making those calls there, none whatsoever. And again, you're going to issue warnings after some, you know, verbal stuff. I didn't agree with any of it. And then you're going to run shilt, you know, and not Davey Martinez, give me a break. Guys, you have to take into account to who's on the mound, right? Mackenzie Gore is a red ass. Good for him. He threw at Jerkson profile. Whether it was intentional or not, it still hit him with 98 miles an hour, which is exactly what you just told him. He can't do. You just said you can't do it. Don't do this. Do it. That's fine. You're joking. There's no way that makes any sense. Not these are worn. You've, you've seen guys get run for up and in, right? You know what I mean? Like, I basically take away the inside part of the plane. Correct. And I don't think it's happened on the first pitch. The first pitch. First pitch. Proper didn't jump out of the way. No, it effing hit. Well, and it was 90 freaking eight miles an hour, dude. And again, a shin is just as valuable as a butt, a back, a hip, an arm, a head, whatever. I thought that was egregious. I think how high up would it have had to have been? Correct. For the, I mean, if it had been the knee, is that an injection thigh? Ejection, but are and is that high enough that all of a sudden now back now now we're definitely getting thrown out of the game. I cannot, I cannot believe what I saw. I really can't. And it might show, he had a really nice, you know, really nice, you know, for his, his one last week where he's like, Hey, you know, you got to do what you got to do. I respect you. I thought he was great in this one. I thought he did exactly what he needed. I actually thought he went a little, I would have gone a little bit harder. You would have seen stuff flying out of the dugout because again, don't do this. Does it? It's fine. It makes no sense. It no, no sense. So I think the nationals are ridiculous. I understand getting your feelings here because you got your ass kicked and you blew a three run lead. I understand that. That's a, that's not a good feeling. But keeper at least does not get to take exception to what Jerkson profile does in his own ballpark. He can disrespect your house. It's his house. He's having a monster year and you knocked him on his ass and he came through and he was fired up. First baseball game guys. That's just your first game. We got first timers. You guys know what you're doing. You know, guys are going to be fired up after that. You need to put your head down and walk away. You do not need to go into the stands and go after fans. You do not need to go to the media crying about how much exception you're taking. Take your L, blame your pitcher and move on. You know, period. I thought the whole thing was handled terribly. I think, I think they are in the wrong on all of this. We haven't hit anybody. We haven't started anything. We had put our hands on anybody first. Give me a break with all of your panties being in a bunch. If you're the Washington nationals, it makes no sense to me. We're just going to keep this rolling this morning is what said we could talk about last night's game for four full hours. So let's do that. Let's do that. If you ever want to join us, you can eight three three two eight zero ninety seven three. Let's listen to the post game show lots of people had some thoughts on what transpired last night. Obviously, we'll get to our Padres wrap up at the bottom of the hour. If you miss the radio calls, you're watching on TV. You're not going to want to miss it again as we hear from Jesse and Tony and their calls of everything that that happened including, of course, the grand slam by jerks and pro far later in the game. Poetic justice. I mean, it, it almost had to happen. And then it did happen. And it's that's not how baseball works where you go up and there's a magic moment right in front of you and you create it. It was so amazing. Like I said, you can watch baseball for years and not have the satisfaction of a game like that last night. So we will be talking about it all morning long. We're going to take our first quick timeout. We'll be back after traffic with much more better woods on a spectacular morning here on 97 three the fan. Just want the tier ones to rest assured that our engineering staff is on it. If you're having some trouble with our radio signal this morning, just chatted in the back with J.R. and company and they did replace a tube yesterday. They say it's still acting up on them. And if you're getting kind of a repeat choppy signal, I apologize. Obviously, this would be a great morning to be able to listen loud and clear to your favorite radio program here at 97 three the fan. I have good news though. If you want to flip over to our app, our Odyssey app or our YouTube stream should have no issues in terms of quality and audio sound on those platforms while they get if there is any choppiness on your end listening on our radio signal this morning. But I caught some of it last night and they were dealing with it yesterday as well. Sometimes it's fine and sometimes then you get that kind of stuttery repeat sound. So if I'm doing it right now, Odyssey app, YouTube stream, other ways to consume the program this morning and maybe you'll find that that's a better way for you in the future. Once you get used to it, a lot of people make that switch and they never go back. They just like to stream it every morning. And to be honest with you, I don't care how you listen. Just listen. Yeah, as long as you're getting us inside of you, that's what we want. Yes, every time. That's exactly what we want. We just want to be inside you. As I said, we're going to be focusing obviously a ton on this game all morning long. I'm so fired up still. We do have a couple of guests who will still I'm sure offer their thoughts on the game because it's a big league Wednesday. Adam Jones will be with us at 735. Brett Boone, who was tweeting about the game last night, agrees with you 100% that unacceptable for umpires not to run McKinsey Gore after hitting jerks and pro for one pitch after being warned not to hit jerks and pro for I thought your parent parenting example was perfect. It's exactly what if you lay if you lay out a threat. Yeah. And the next thing that happens is that threat is violated. Intention doesn't really matter at that point. You know, the punishment has to be needed out. That's exactly right. You know, hey, don't throw your legos on the ground. And then you knock your legos over accidentally, but they go all over the place. I'm sorry, bro. Where are your legos? They're on the ground. Well, you screwed up. You're done. You're losing your legos. Any excuse for me to throw legos away? I take in my home, by the way, literally. What did you do? Would you say these are going to the garbage? Sorry. Any excuse I can fight. I hate them with a bloody passion. The rage I see when I walk in my home and their legos all over the floor, you have no idea. You know, it does seem that and maybe this is just our hometown perspective, but it feels like the Padres do get extra ire from other fan bases that, you know, they get in their feels a little bit more from other teams occasionally. And I'm trying to put my finger on it. Is it kind of players that we have? Is it our fans? What's going on that causes this with, you know, the Mets and the Padres and the playoffs? Everything that goes on over the last few years. Is it the spending on the team and, you know, the talent level? And I think ultimately there's probably some truth in all of that, but it's the atmosphere at Petco Park that really supercharges everything. That game might have a different feel if there's 12,000 people on a Tuesday as there is, let's be honest, in most ballparks around the country. In Washington, Pittsburgh, yeah, 100% Sanati, you know, you're playing in front of a sellout, crowd almost every night. And the atmosphere can become electrically charged so instantly, players feel that. Of course they feel it. It permeates into the dugouts as well. People who are a little mad, all of a sudden get a lot mad. Jesse Winker, you know, gets it into it with the fans. You can tell that the fans, it's different. It's not something they're used to experiencing. It was yesterday, wasn't it, that Jackson Merrill said he had a player from another team came up to him and said, I've never seen an atmosphere like this. I really, yes, this is not hard. Yeah, Jackson said he had a player from the other team go. This you, I've never, I've never played. I've never heard anything like this, what you've got in your ballpark. It's incredible. And this is, it's definitely something different for players come to San Diego. They come to Petco Park. They feel the atmosphere here. It just charges things up to a level that they're not used to, at least in the regular season. Felt like a playoff atmosphere in June. Bro, June, I mean, it gets to 500 teams. It's like a playoff game in June. There's no question. And so did the night before. So did the night before. Yeah, I'm, I'm extremely fired up and foul territory just retweeted the Ruiz thing again. And bro, he is, he is poking him in the chest and put his hand jerks and set out the game. Yeah, you can talk. You can't touch. And that's absolutely right. Like don't come up and poke me. Again, who are you? Who are you? That's a guy again, with 10 years in the big leagues, Ben. Has he been an MVP candidate every year? No, he has not. But he is an absolute leader of this team on the field, off the field, whatever. You don't get to poke him and you need to do it with the right. This reminds me of the Lord baseball days with Justin Verlander. Now, by the way, Justin Verlander, he's got skins on the wall. Keebert Ruiz has none zero. The only skinny has always the big league player, which is awesome. That's great. Congratulations. He's rated out as one of the worst catchers in baseball. Yeah. Here ye, here ye. From here to fall, you shall not celebrate home runs. Walk off home runs in your own ball park. It is so decreed by me. Keebert Ruiz. Get the F out of here with that. Finger in the check. And you're you're doing looking away going, uh huh. Go ahead, bro. When Manny came, he's got to be thinking, do you want me to slug you in the face right now? I mean, give jerks in some credit. He said, I just want to play baseball. I want to play baseball, dude. I was fired up last night. Hell yeah. You can't touch. Dude. I immediately when he when he had his hand going, I'm going that that my first thought was that's not okay. That's not okay, dude. For Ruiz to be touching jerks and profile right now. That's not okay. Well, our own Annie Heilburn was there last night and she posted all the video of profile standing as locker after the game. We've got all of that coming up for you at some point this morning. Well, and first, we've got what Polly says it understandably is our longest pod phrase wrap up of the season. So you didn't get the radio calls from Jesse and Tony. I've heard most of them, but not all of them. I'm looking very forward to it. I want to get to that. Coming up next, do not go anywhere. Meta Woods continuing here on a Wednesday morning on 97-3 to fan. Well, this is undoubtedly been the season of jerks and profile. And he deserves everything coming his way. Hopefully, including a trip to the All-Star game in three weeks. Yesterday also may have been one of Manny Machado's finest moments as a member of the San Diego pod race for so many reasons. Yes, for many, many reasons, not the least of which, of course, was sending a pitch to the moon right after the benches had cleared in the first inning. We're going to hear that highlight and all the highlights coming up here in our pod race ramp up quickly. This hour on 97-3, the fan is brought to you by the San Diego County Fair.

You hear what I'm saying? It's like better than losing. Oh my God, I'm so stiff. What up crew? We've got you covered with all of the highlights. I like it with a pod race, wait. Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! It's the pod race wrap-up presented by Hamul Casino. With rilling slots and tables in all the best rewards, Hamul Casino has all the fun you're looking for. Hamul Casino, fun of all else. Yeah! Give me a due damage. Due damage. At a moment for throwing the bottom of the tenth inning last night, a two-run single slash double. And immediately he is face-to-face with the catcher Ruiz and the benches will empty. Man, he kind of standing in the middle making peacemaker and Ryan Esposito has profar back against the backstop to make sure nothing happens and Ruiz is hot. He's being held far away by one of the Washington coaches trying to get away. He has thrown his mask at his helmet off. Now everybody coming in from the bullpen. One out, nobody off. Here's the pitch. And Jurgson takes down and in, hit him on the foot. Henry has ejected someone from the lottery shot. Third base umpire has just ejected somebody in the first base dugout. It might have been Mike Schilt who's saying, "Hey, you've warned him." And then the very next pitch was a hit by pitch. Hamry I think is saying, "Hey, it was a fastball at his feet." That's not generally how you throw it somebody. And look, this is one of those situations where there's umpires discretion, but you can very much understand why Mike Schilt is as hot as he is. Without a doubt, he got a warning for no reason. His team got a warning for no reason. And yet his guy gets flunked on the first pitch after. Here's Machado. And he swings in the first pitch, hits in a mile to deep left field. What an answer from Manny. Maybe the longest homer I've ever seen to left at Petco Park. Do nothing San Diego in the bottom of the first inning and Profor raises his hands as he rounds third base. Machado taking the slowest try you'll ever see him take. Only about halfway to third base and this place is electric. Running on second two outs. Two no to Lane Thomas. Two one Padres here in the third inning. And a line drive towards the right field corner. That is a fair ball. Gonna hop up against the fence. Bounces away from Johnson. Young will score to tie the game. And on his way to third Lane Thomas to throw in the tag. Not in time ball trickled out of Machado's glove anyway. An RBI triple and we are two two here in the third. One and one. Winker swings hits it high and deep to right field. Johnson is back. He's in front of the wall. He is looking up. It's going to go. Jesse Winker a two run home run. And the Nationals go in front. Four to two here in the third inning. And now it's Winker's turn to admire a home run. And trot fairly slowly around the bases. Machado at first. Arise it third. Here is the two two to Crowland where it swung online in the left field. That is down in the base head. Arise into score. Machado gonna try and get to third. Winker's throw is coming and it gets through. Nice job. Like Gore backing it up. Kind of fell down to his stomach and reached out to stop the baseball from rolling away. He doesn't get to it. Man he's on his way home. But it's a one run game now. Four to three. Tonoworth ends up in second base. And the Padres have two guys in scoring position for Donavin Solana. Orcom said and ready. Here's the O2 pin. Solano hits it hard on the ground the other way. Diving attempt Garcia trickles off his glove. Machado is scored. Tonoworth's on his way. A two run single and the Padres are back in front. It's five to four. Padres with a one run lead. They are looking for more. Much more with jerks and pro-far at the plate. Here's the 2-0 pitch pro-far hits it in the air. Deep down the right field line towards the corner. Good to go. The ultimate answer. Grand Slam jerks in pro-far. All in two strikes. The pitch to Manessis swung on hitting the air to right field straight away. Fairly deep. Johnson will make the catch in front of the warning track. That'll get Abrams home. A sacrifice fly for Joey Manessis. And now two away here in the eighth inning. It's a nine-five Padres lead. They've changed it by the way to an error on a rise. Not an infield second. Either way one and two. That one is served in a center field in the base hit. Young gonna come around and score an unearned run. And the Nationals continue to hang around now nine to seven with two outs in the ninth inning. And the time run is coming to the plate. Robert Suarez once again as the Nationals down to their final strike. Padres lead by two in the top of the ninth inning. No balls and two strikes. Here's the pitch. Thomas swings, pops it up. Mile high on the right side of the infield. Roninworth will make the call. Roninworth will make the catch. And the ball game is over. Adam Masier going to get his first major league win on a wild night at Petco. The bench is emptied in the bottom of the first and then in the bottom of the sixth. Bjergsen pro far emptied the bases with a grand slam. He is now driven in 54 runs on the young season. Andre's nine national seven. Just how the baseball gods see it you know. I mean the baseball gods are great. That's why they're up there. You have to stay humble and the situations right. And they pay you they pay you right. And look what happened you know. You know tough tough game. How to start start off. You kept it cool. You did everything you know and then went out there. You know hits a grand slam in the same day. I mean it doesn't get better than you. I don't even think you could write it up any better. I mean good God. This is like the highest drama ever. I mean it was just a perfect perfect game last night. Yeah I got a little close at the end. Luis Arise botched that ball at first base. Almost threw up in my hands. It was it was spectacular played by Kimmy spectacular. Should have ended the game. Didn't short hop or anything just boxed it. It happens. It's terrible. But it did happen. Just a just an awesome awesome night. Awesome couple of nights at Petco Park Penny. It's as Manny said. Sometimes the baseball gods the karma doesn't pay off the way you hope it will. But it certainly did last night. Felt very fitting everything that happened for the Padres and and how that game played out in victory. Buddy I'm driving home from frozen ropes with bow and I'm listening to the game. I am trying to listen to the game and I I'm like I when measure gave it up you know we're now down. I'm just the feeling I had was such a feeling of disappointment and like thanks for sucking all the wind out of the entire city sales. I mean it was just like you know what I mean. It's like your mother-in-law walking in on you or something. Truly like it was just like all the wind went out of your sales and you're like this is not good. And then when I got by the time I got home I thought we're not losing this game. There's no way we lose this game. There's just no chance and Donovan Solano's knock was just spectacular. Manny working that walk there was it was great. It was a great great game last night. So many unsung heroes and I guess you know you do have to give credit for Adam Major pitch well enough to get a win. His offense certainly picked him up last night which is not something we've seen the Padres do a lot. We've seen some really nice comebacks but you know picking a guy up almost immediately when he's down was great. Going out and scoring five runs against a pretty tough left-hander which has been your your bugaboo this season was spectacular as well. It ended the streak. It had been 23 consecutive lefties who had held the Padres to three runs or fewer and I think 17 of them had held them to one run or fewer but they got five and five innings off Mackenzie Gore. First time since April 24th that they've actually gone out and put together some significant offense against a left-handed starter. So they needed that really badly. It feels like nitpicking to be mad at at a measure. As you said he bounced back got his first big league win did not strike out anybody. It's going to be hard to have success at the big league level if you can't get some more swing and miss for sure miss some more bats. In fact that was another crazy element of last night's game. Padres didn't strike out a national until Robert Suarez got one in the ninth inning. Yeah. Strike out the entire game. The Nationals I think only struck out four batters the entire game. So you had balls in play all night long last night between those two teams. You know we always sit in here and say well you got to pitch the contact pitch the contact and then when they pitch the contact we're like you got to strike more guys out. Needs to be a mix. Certainly you have to you have to know that you have it in you to miss bats but you can certainly be effective pitching the contact especially with the defense like you got behind you in Manny Machado and Hassan Kim and Jake Croneworth at second. Luis Rizos played a you know pretty good first base until that that boxed yesterday. So listen man that was a massive massive win for this team and again puts the Nationals you know just a little bit more behind you. You know again this is not this is not this didn't feel to me like two mid-level teams when in fact their records say that they are but the NL's been so wonky this year these teams are fighting for positioning. They're fighting for head to head because you never know how the season is going to work out. Saw a lot of people early in the game like two teams this is taking a kick to the groin at the end of the night. Neither of these teams wants to lose this game. It's going to be extra painful if you lose tonight's game and the Padres ended up being the team that didn't have to suffer that added dose of humiliation of losing a game with such an electrically charged atmosphere. Now I don't know it it would be silly after everything we've gone through the last year and a half plus to say today's game will have any carryover for the rest of the season or even any carryover to this afternoon. Well this is finale but it does happen in baseball. Oh yeah. I don't know man big games and big moments do tend to have a lingering positive or negative effect jump out to a six nothing lead today. I wouldn't be surprised if you see some more tempers. Well not not not simply in the emotional but would you expect the Padres to go on a run now where they win 15 of 18 games or something like that based on the emotion. Maybe there it does happen in baseball where a big win sparks something bigger. It just you know at the San Diego Padres it hasn't necessarily been that way for the last couple of years. So I'm not going to get ahead of myself. Yeah. This was the turning point. This was the moment we're going to look back and circle and go when we're talking in you know in October and it was that is that June 25th game against the Nationals that really set them on their course the rest of the way. We cannot do it. We cannot do us a refrain from going that direction. You have to. You have to because they they now it would be so lovely in three weeks to look back and say what a freaking run these guys just went on and obviously we now know what the catalyst for it was. We'd be morons to sit in here and do it today. We've been burned too many times too many times. The turning points there were 10 of them last year I thought oh this is a turning point too many too many and you know you hate to say well good you know show me again but unfortunately man you guys you they did this to themselves after their play the last couple of years essentially being a 500 team over 350 games or whatever. That's not on us. That's not on us but I I think it's a really smart and wise decision to not say this is it. We are rolling now Dylan cease if you want to give up six in the first. He's done it before you know so that being said I sure much rather have won that game than lost that. No question man. No question you had to win that game last night credit to all the guys that came through last night to make sure that one did not get away because the emotions I mean again I don't know how you call this season anything other than a roller coaster. It is like the biggest gnarliest roller coaster that I've ever been. The games are roller coasters within the roller coaster. Roller coaster within the roller coaster. It's like a it's like that Taco Bell taco that's actually in another taco. That's how this season is. It's crazy. It's the double decker Padre season supreme. That's exactly right dude. It is just insane. So I loved it. I loved every second of it. Even the bad parts you know it was just high the highest drama was so happy for Manny to get that knock one of his top three moments as a San Diego Padre if not number one you know essentially having his teammates back there grabbing Ruiz you know with some force and and not putting up with that and then to follow it up on the next pitch with a tank electric. I saw some people asking where are all the other calls of that Manny home run the Spanish language the Korean language the Nationals call Don or Silo's call and I'm sorry we weren't able to compile any of those this morning. We just had a lot of other things on our minds and we didn't get to it so we apologize. We have all day but oh no wait next segment the alley says coming up right here at the top of the hour. We got them. We will get all of those calls of the Manny Machado statement home run and then we'll play some take on what's coming up next. Don't go away.

There was certainly something in the air last night at Petco Park no doubt about it. The electricity in that game generated could have powered I think all the air conditioners in the city that we needed this week with the heat and humidity. I mean it's just super charged my skin was crawling with excitement and it was amazing. God it was great like you chase that you chase that if you're baseball fan. So I want to play Jesse's call of Manny's home run again right after the pro far hit by pitch the very first pitch by Mackenzie Gore and people pointed out when they were listening to the Padres wrap up. Jesse didn't exactly see it clearly just because it was gone. It was gone. It didn't even go 400 feet it was more high than gone. I still think it is an epic call that will live on in Padres history because it feels right long after we forget the exact distance of Manny's home run it will be remembered as one of the more majestic blasts that Petco Park has ever seen. So this was the bottom of the first inning last night at Petco Park. Here's Machado and he swings at the first pitch hits it a mile to deep left field. What an answer from Manny. Maybe the longest homer I've ever seen to left at Petco Park. Do nothing San Diego in the bottom of the first inning and pro far raises his hands as he rounds third base. Machado taking the slowest shot you'll ever see him take. Only about halfway to third base and this place is electric. It probably it probably bothers Jesse that there was an inaccuracy. I think it might be his best call I've ever heard. It was so good. The emotion just what it conveys is so amazing that I loved it. I can't hear it enough. It was so well done and you could I texted him last night I go most fun game you've ever called. He goes yeah he goes it'd be better if I was working on a full night's sleep but that's the life we live like oh yeah I'm on I'm on four hours today. Today I'm on a four again. I mean it is just the San Diego Padres keeping me up all night but better than the alternative right down nine to one turn the game off in the fourth inning and go to bed. I'll take the I'll take this for the rest of the season. Yeah I'm gonna look I'm gonna look like a burned turd after the season but I'm fine with it. All right I'm sure some of you were listening to Jesse and Tony on the radio. Thank you for that. Did not get to hear the television call Don and Mud killed it as well. Here's what it sounded like on Padres dot TV. One hour one on man may Machado should be able to make a pay high-rise deep black panel. Make your back at the wall take that six minute. Machado. Proper tired up and he should be. They hit him intentionally and then Manny hits one out of the yard intentionally and the Padres take it to nothing late. Have a very bad day. Play it again. So listen the timing is staggering. The moment he says the word can make him pay back. It's when it's when he hits the ball. It's incredible. One hour one on man man Machado should be able to make a pay high-rise. Oh my god that's so good. It's that's that's when you put your tin foil hat on and go. All right and man man. Man. Man. It kind of downplayed it in the post game interview a little bit like he always does that he was clearly swinging for the fences on the first pitch. He was hoping to get a fastball in a certain spot and see if he could hit it to the moon. Rarely does circumstance collide in such a perfect way. It just was it was the perfect pitch for the perfect moment for Manny Machado and he swung out of his shoes on the man. Machado should be able to make a pay. Oh god that's fantastic. All right let's uh let's go to the Spanish. You can take the boy out of Boston. You can't take Boston out of the boy. Let's go to the East. Do you like apples? Hey keep it ruined. What's that see your contention? Your first year your first year catch up with the negative war. Eduardo Ortega the future Hall of Famer on the Spanish language call last night of my job. [Music] There must have been 4,000 words just in that one call. I was just going to leave it out. I just very little Spanish. I know there I caught a few of those words but there were a lot of words. This next call from the National Television Broadcast. I I love this one. Not very many words. Not many words but just listen to the utter sadness in this call from the Washington Nationals television broadcast. This is like working a 12 hour day pouring yourself a glass of the finest whiskey when you get home. This is what it this is what it feels like to me. Oh my. Two words. Ten words. And they're going to help me. They're dug out like it's all right. Like maybe just hit one of the biggest moments. They have such a problem. They have such a problem. You better stay in your dugout. It is all the oh my though the deflation. The other oh we're wearing this right now. We're wearing it so hard. Oh my. That feeling for me. What is that on par with for you guys? Like what is the like if I get a text today that says I'm taking both kids to the fair till eight. That is the say like the oh my. What is it on par with? When they hit it and I heard that call I'm like that to me is like your favorite dinner is on the table. Like it's it's it's the cocktail and a cigarette smoke smoke. You know they're thinking okay now Mackenzie Gore comes back strikes out the next three batters to leave jerks and standing there and then the the Nationals run off the field all fired up and celebrate coming out of their dugout. But one pitch they knew well this isn't going the way we wanted it to go. And they're going to help me. They're dug out like it's all right. But you know what they're going to empty their they have like they are the dugout police the dugout police. Oh you're out of your dugout again. Must be your world series. I was that guy Grant Paulson got he was tweeted into my feed 7,000 times. He's a professional he's a fellow radio professional. I really practiced a lot of decorum last night but not just dragging him. He was so upset. So upset the policing and where they celebrate and how they celebrate and what they do. Again I'm going to tell all the Nationals fans and media again. Only one team had a guy hit. Only one team instigated anything by putting their hands on another player. Only one team had a player go into the stands. Your honor. I rest my effing case. It's done. There's one guilty party here. We are at our home. When we go to Washington in a couple of weeks or whatever and you guys hit a walk off, I fully expect you to be celebrating on the field like it's a world series game. Because especially if Robert Suarez comes in and coughs up a three run lead. I fully expect it. I would not care and I would totally understand why you do it. I understood all of your celebrations the last two days. I understood Jesse Wanker running around the base and walking around the base. Wanker? No I said Jesse Wanker. I understood that. That makes sense to me because I know ball. You guys are supposed to know ball and you don't. Also can we talk about the distinction of when things like this happen against the Padres? The fairness in which Mud and Dawn call the game and they don't do that that crap. They don't do the oh look at these guys celebrating like they won the world series. Never. I've never heard of the homers but they're eminently fair. They are homers there and they don't they don't do that stuff. The spiciest muddle is we got that pitch. Yeah we got that pitch too. That's it. That's all they'll say. All right we have one more call before we before we play it. I want to give you an opportunity to call in for take on woods 833288093 chance to qualify for a trip to Las Vegas and our musical trivia game coming up here 833288073 a dial now. But of course we save the Korean call of Manny Machado's home run the goats for last. So good. So I think I like the Nationals TV call the best actually. One people said that needs to go into the tournament of drops next year. That is like that. That's like that plum whiskey I have at home that I save for very special occasion just it makes your whole body feel warm and it's delicious. I give you guys one more Korean call about pro-fars grandson. All right let's hear that one too. I think they they actually nailed that one better than the Manny home run this time.

if we take a brief timeout from talking about last night's game we do need to get to a don't do this moment from yesterday guys what in the world is going on in college based I don't ever want to hear somebody here never judge athletes never that you can't do it for jumping in the transfer portal hundred percent don't talk to me about loyalty that is coming up next we'll be back after a check a traffic here on 97 3 the fan don't do this it's time for don't do this what were you thinking three stories from the world of sports that make us all shake our heads how many times do I have to tell you I'm sorry I fudged up guys you idiot more on the apple sometimes does far fall from the tree don't do this do not tweet that with Ben and Woods I like a Nickelback song or two on 97 3 the fan you know we usually say it's three stories that make you shake your head this is really really just sometimes there's one that will absolutely suffice over the next six to seven minutes yeah this is the kind of day where we might have just skipped don't do this entirely but we we had to we have to tell you about Jim Schloss Nagel don't do this is brought to you by the Craft Taco in Serenal Valley Craft Taco is some of the best quality tacos in all of San Diego go to the craft taco dot com take a look at their happy hour specials today the craft taco dot com so what's who is Jim Schloss Nagel well he is the head baseball coach of the Texas Longhorns now and about 24 hours ago he was the head baseball coach of the Texas A&M Aggies who lost in game three of the college world series and after the game you know obviously it's tough that's tough you you work your tail off with you guys you get to the last game and you lose and he was asked a question Texas had an open job Texas has an open job yeah a lot of speculation so a reporter did his due diligence and asked him about that open gig coach with respect to the difficult outcomes tonight but with the rumors circulating today about a specific job opening what do you have to say about your future in Aggieland yeah I mean I think it's pretty selfish of you to ask me that question to be honest with you but my uh I left my family to be the coach at Texas A&M I took the job at Texas A&M to never take another job again and that hasn't changed in my mind right um that's unfair to talk about something like that they'd be like you asking my gumber if he's gonna sign in the draft but I understand you got to ask the question but I gave up a big part of my life to come take this job and I poured every ounce of my soul in this job and I've given this job every single ounce I can possibly give it to write that all right so that coach thank you very much what first of all great job by the reporter again like letting him know hey I understand that you're going through it right now it's the results tonight notwithstanding I have to ask you this question because the rumor mill was going crazy about this guy so I have a couple of things that I think are important to point out number one people love to get on 60 or they love to get on 18 19 20 21 year old kids for going into transfer portals they love it it's their favorite thing to do there's no loyalty blah blah blah coaches do this stuff all the time the double standard is through the roof I don't want to hear it anymore if you're a if you're a kid take care of yourself okay yes once you're a part of that team you bust your ass for that team and that coach but you that coach will sit in your living room he will look you dead in the eye and say son if you come to Texas A&M I ain't never leave it never we're going to do this together and the next day that dude is on a plane and he's throwing his horns up it's gross it's nasty I understand it I understand a bigger offer I do taking a job is okay but the how he handled the ability of the way he he answered the question he could have simply said um hey this is not I appreciate the question but it's not about me man it's about my players right now yeah I'm happy to talk about it at a later date I'm bombing after this loss even if he wants to say you know what don't really want to talk about not planning on going anywhere even if he tells a bald face lie at that moment I'm okay with that hundred percent but to insult the reporter for asking the question right that selfish yeah selfish for asking what is an important question about the future of that program the future of the Texas Longhorns and something that obviously he didn't invent that story that was out there it needs to be asked it needs to be addressed in some way and it's not by insulting the person who's asking the question by the way I left my family to take this job okay why where did you leave them okay why did you do that okay again let's play it logically I took this job thinking it was my last job I will never go to another this is it I'm coming to A&M I would think that you'd bring your family with you at that point but hey guys we did it I'm the head coach of A&M Hannah bow Taylor pack your stuff we're moving the college station not I'm leaving you guys I assume he left them in Fort Worth he was the TCU coach for like 15 or more years before he took the Texas A&M job a couple of years ago now it it that happens where like like our buddy Skip Schumacher he had to he had to move across the country to Miami to take this job while his family who's kids in high school state that's fine but don't he doesn't throw it in anyone's face but I left my family for this bro you you had every every opportunity to bring your job I haven't been to the Miami Marlins press conference Skip is a very accountable human being so talk to my children anymore that's how much I love this team in this job I've had and I've split up and I've left my kids I will no longer be talked so all you that hate when I talk about my kids don't worry that's how committed I am to Ben and Woods I left my family for this job I want to see the same commitment from both of you write that are you kidding me nobody told you to leave your family hey bud that doesn't make the leader I think you think it makes you it yeah that's exactly right left your family behind man I mean it is I became an alcoholic for this that's how much I care I drink I drink so much now that's how much I care about this job one or two nasty drug habits that's how much I care it's all every question right that right that it's incredible man and then and then the nerve so now though the entire entire a&m baseball staff guess where they're heading Austin they're gonna also join Jim what's his name Boone swagel horse lost niggle he's going to be horn swagel hook him horn swagel yeah hook him horn swagel again no one cares if you take a job that pays you more money nobody but you can't insult that reporter when in fact all of the smoke was actually fire it's embarrassing I'm tired of kids getting ripped on kids by the way when a grown-ass 50-something-year-old man does the exact same thing for more money why do kids leave in the transfer portal they can get paid more and everyone's oh clutching the pearls talking about loyalty and the badge and everything else and he played for the the university give me a break coaches sit there and preach accountability not stop it's all they talk about Bo is a baseball camp he's six what's the coach talking about being accountable it it's your whole life you hear that and what does the coach do I'm out I don't know why about it I'm gonna take everybody oh and by the way the rumors are that this guy's been doing this since April he's been recruiting players to Texas knowing he was leaving in April now that's unethical bro that's an ethical to have one job and be recruiting for another at the same time this is absolutely embarrassing if that's true uh you know what we got Adam Jones coming up let's just uh fast forward here and get right to the end that was don't do this for a Wednesday that was don't do this with Ben & Woods on 97-3 the fan I cannot wait to hear what five time all star Adam Jones has to say about what went down last night at Peko Park the emotions the reactions of course uh you know friends with Manny Machado and uh his home run what uh Adam Jones has to say about everything he's gonna join us when we come back don't go away more Ben & Woods next on San Diego's number one sports station 97-3 the fan this guy it's unbelievable where in the world is Adam Jones coming up he teased us last week it was going to be somewhere somewhere different he's in a place and I don't know how to say the name and I hear it a bunch of different ways so I don't even want to say it well we'll let him tell us in just a moment I did see this stat I wanted to get to it quickly because it blows my mind the last six times jerks and pro far has come up with the bases loaded come on here's what he's done three run double grand slam three run double three run double could two run walk off single that bounced over the wall grand slam last night that's 19 runs batted in in six at bats with the bases loaded matching Albert Pujols is the only two players who have done that in the last 50 years wow wow he's the king with the sacks juiced imagine walking somebody to get to him you'd have to be a real moron to do that oh what a what a night it's been one of the last two nights it's been with the Padres nationals we'll get the thoughts of Adam Jones from his newest far-flung locale right after this check traffic on 97 through the fan so if it is true where Woods thinks Adam Jones is right now and you say you don't know how to pronounce it I think the correct pronunciation requires a bit of a lisp to get it right is that right okay so AJ can you tell us tell us where the world is Adam Jones today I'll say that these are the people over here say Ibiza Ibiza like you have Ibiza yeah so where is Ibiza the derogatory could say but Ibiza the derogatory to say that if you spoke like that it could speak that you would be in secondary classes right yeah yeah Ibiza it's like a like but they say it's it's coastal where is it exactly Spain isn't yeah coastal Spain it's uh it's up to the coast of Spain Ibiza I feel weird saying Ibiza so I'm going to say Ibiza but it doesn't really matter but that's the dialect it's better because I don't want to report you to you know speech right or anything like Ibiza well it's uh good to hear from you what a uh what a couple of nights it's been out at Petco Park AJ I'm hopefully you've gotten a chance to see this this was insane yeah the last the last couple nights and you know I I kind of take exception with the Nationals taking exception as you can probably imagine you know being the Homer than I am but I I kind of am under the impression of when you get dusted 97 up around the head and then you had a walk off you you've earned a little bit of chest beating uh if you're jerks and pro far and um and and they they really took exception to it I thought kind of cooler heads would prevail after 24 hours it didn't I also had a big problem with kemett Ruiz you know grabbing pro far and patting him on the shoulder very you know very um it just didn't feel right to me and he was kind of poking him in the chest I thought that was a little bit over the line I mean first off jerks in a few years that means that he's going best into the game now we see a lot of guys with a year or two they got a couple tweaks that was retweeted by you know big brands Lawrence fourth center for making a nice play after a nice week but the little facility and had a cappuccino in the big leagues and they think that they know what's going on so far it's been there done that in a big situation therefore he can you can too just want a little bit different that's okay it's not a problem but it's like you know people aren't they strikes and baseball today you know I mean you ain't earning the right to pimp a ball I didn't get the pimp a ball personally until I hit my hundred you guys now pimp their first so the ball just set out you might be optioned if you have a bad week relax be easy but no actually I like I like I like I mean I think it's good for baseball especially like we talk about the nationals and the Padres but it's not arrived only by any stretch of imagination no but they just created it two years ago one of the biggest trades in baseball history so therefore there is a common denominator with each other you got Mackenzie Gore throwing last night I know it's crazy though is I think it's I know he didn't mean to do it I'm glad he wasn't ejected I'm glad she was ejected but he wasn't ejected if he didn't mean to hit profile with the pitch I mean coming out they you know are coming off the warnings he didn't mean him with that it gets her to set up a way you know we didn't mean that to me he didn't mean him by the head with just a guy in the foot um but then then coming back at the home run the crowd's going crazy like that's baseball that's what we that's what we we got Abrams to swing the back group against the OT him again like these are things these are story storylines things and hey I would never again we I heard Don talk about it last night he said if this is a moment in the season with the Padres we can benchmark June 25th is a moment that things changed and hey they've won a few games with walk ups down and trade the fashion hopefully they will off a lot and continue to check down the good road see now Adam I I agree and Mike Schildt agreed with you that what didn't necessarily think that Mackenzie Gore was throwing it at jerks and pro for based on where the pitch was but I disagree in the fact that when you get a warning and the very next pitch is 98 and hits the guy to me it doesn't really matter where it is you got you got to be ejected from the game I'm not saying you get suspended or anything but I feel like you got to go in that sense you do but you don't I like it I mean I mean there's a busy old clip of Granny Johnson throwing that uh throwing a slider at Kenny Loughton saying it Loughton doesn't like it yep next pitch like Ben just cleared next pitch was 97 at his head yeah now that right there that that's talking about I don't personally go or meant to throw at him but again once the warnings are thrown the day I can sit with it the next pitch it wasn't three minutes later on a slider it was the next pitch at 98 so I do get that but if you're watching the game and I like I like how the umpires were controlling the game things like that the catcher wasn't set up inside it wasn't up and then it was a fast one that he pulled and they they called it what it calls it I do like she'll get in toss because again the rules are the rules they gave a warning and we don't have a warning we don't even get a chance and we all know again the manager gets tossed there in the tunnel right there still managing it yeah we were gonna ask you about that so here when he when he gets tossed I mean you don't he doesn't have to obviously he's not gonna go get in his car and drive home and listen to the game on the radio and get his Chipotle bowl and sit in front of the TV we know that is he really is he down in the in the tunnel going get Suarez up I mean is is is it that obvious I mean it's if you look at the the bench coach who just took over look at how many times or look at many times a player or somebody just goes in your contract in the courthouse and just relays the message that's great again he's not a suspended player so he does not have to leave the premises right before the game is called so you know it's a he's just not he's just not the face uh making the decisions on the field but always the manager's always there all they're always there and it was it's it's been high drama I mean really like it's crazy and and I kind of agree with Ben I you know I get what you're saying too but if you if you walk into 7-11 today in Ibiza and you grab a Snickers and forget to pay for it they still can arrest you for shoplifting even though you had no intent of shoplifting you're like hey bro you've got the Snickers in your pocket man you're going in you're paying you're fine and you're going in and uh yeah we we both kind of said hey if they didn't you know if they threw him out of the game but didn't didn't find him or suspend him I don't think anybody would have a problem with it just well it's wild the the and I know Davey Martinez an old school guy I know that and I'm sure it's filtered down to his team Jesse Winker is an old school guy I get it I totally get it but you know it's not like those dudes didn't celebrate big moments too and uh it's just really weird to me when when somebody becomes the dugout police in somebody else's home ballpark like you're when you played at Camden Yards and you had to walk off my man you get you can do whatever you want it's your house right? 100% when you said your house go home the other team just go home I don't even know why they I don't even know why they were still on the field yep like when you get walked off and it's not the playoffs and it's not the last one where you're eliminated like I remember getting eliminated from the playoffs and I stayed on the field because this is the end of the season it's over with I've been walked off many times I walked my ass off the field and I got mad opened up a beer and was ready for the next day like go do that like there's no point in standing around standing around and saying like oh yeah what are you standing around for like it's again it's it's June this is not it's not late September yeah and it's not the playoffs so a walk over the walk off like you cannot and that's what things would it doesn't matter how you can't walk off whatever it's a walk off come on celebrate the situation and I get this there's these you can't even show up dug out police and there's old older players that are now trying to fleece the game yeah pseudo because they can't get a damn job within the game like dude hey look it the game is evolving I'm sorry it is what it is not everybody's gonna harm and kill a broody put their head down a jail mercy switch a head down and run the bases like that or even atom or violence sorry yeah that's right guys are going to run them on the basis in 18 seconds people are going to take their time they're going to enjoy the home run it's a big moment it's part of it and I said this is jail tour years ago baseball is not a science man it's art it is art and it's beautifully drawn picture some pictures on terribly some pictures are drawn for console life and everything in between so like the players have phone especially on the walk off now again if it's the first inning the third inning like come on let's be honest with ourselves we're not sitting in the ball yeah unless you're manning big situation he also has 300 of them so if you're giving them you're just going to piss them off a little bit more so that's obviously not going to work but if a guy has you know 16 home ovens career and he does that he got a problem with it but the guy who has 10 years and it's been walk off and enjoy the moment it's going to be all other sports center target Adam Jones five-time all-stars with us and obviously teammate of Manny Machado and I want to ask you about the Manny home run specifically because we know Manny generally knows it's a long season down place things for the most part but how big really was that for him to be able to go on the next pitch and you know put swing out of his shoes a little bit and hit a towering home run right there he's not downplaying that one in the clubhouse right that one's a special moment for for all those players I mean I've watched him come up in some really big situations after either being thrown at or other guys being thrown at and Cloud going crazy stand still with all different things and he's no goals was attacked and that does that was pictures of men because he sees the situation and he flies in those situations again you can say on the overall year of what he's doing the guy is six weeks away from being second and you're not you're not saying anything so I always played a long game I always know what's on the back of the card and you know it's him it's just like a moment like that could hit him high a moment like a moment like that could get the Padres going and like Don said this could be the moment that the Padres needed to get their season like started because if I didn't plan 500 the whole year and that's still been adequate if you know the Dodgers have not ran away with the division no one's ran away to division the wild cards are still there but there's still a time right now where the Padres can be searching for the break the guy with two two and a half weeks making real off when we're talking about last year this is the time where they can real off that 11 out of 15 something like that right before the break and put themselves in a good position in the second half Adam Jones what's on the menu in Ibiza Oh, lobster, paella, you've lost a bunch of different breeds this guy sent me a video he's eating lobster on the beach right now like this said this no BS. I was yesterday. Can you son of a son of a bitch look at you hey man thank you for jumping on we always appreciate you and we'll talk to you soon. Adam Jones where in the world Ibiza Ibiza Ibiza um so I had this then Higgins Steve Wood so this isn't the first time this year the jerks and pro far has had a run in an emotional run in with another catcher yeah it happened earlier this season with with Will Smith obviously led to the hole he's not even relevant and and then the next day pro far walks it off so he's already had big moments this year there's a good chance that in two and a half weeks when jerks and pro far becomes an all star for the first time he goes back to his his original team in Texas at Arlington in the starting lineup he could be batting you know six for the National League Will Smith could be batting six or seven I mean they could be right they could be introduced next to each other as they line up on the field as all stars in Texas next to each other I think I think it'll be starting line up I think it'll be fine the more interesting rumor is the Dodgers going after Randy or Rosarina right now and remember Rosarina is the one that came up and extended his hand to Will Smith at the WBC and that goober corny dork refused to shake his hand before baseball game which I just I mean that that's interesting to me if a Rosarina who's batting like 100 ends up with the Dodgers I mean you know what's gonna happen but but yeah I think that happens all the time guys that have bad blood they end up in the same life and I don't think anything's gonna happen no I just think it would be a moment for jerks in the same year yes standing there looking at Will Smith hey dude good to be teammates with you here at the all-star game in the starting lineup right here next to each other after what happened earlier this season yeah it's like me and hacksaw playing a celebrity softball game you know what I mean that would be a great moment for you wouldn't they still have those saxes I love Ben and Woods yeah Ben and Woods from Ibiza Ibiza all right we've got um we got two more hours coming up including a visit from another big leaguer on a big league Wednesday Brett Boone is gonna be with us in our eight o'clock hour at eight thirty five you definitely want to stick around for that we'll have more maybe a chance for some phone calls as well coming up if you want to join us 8 3 3 2 8 0 97 3 Padres Nationals talk continuing here on 97 3 the fan halfway home on a Wednesday Brett and Woods 97 3 the fan what a incredible incredible morning it's been so far super fired up great great win last night great win the night before San Diego Padres play a little bit better baseball a lot more inspired baseball certainly and it's just been it's been a joy to watch the last couple nights hopefully keep it rolling today I'm Woodsy that's Paul Reindel the executive producer Benjamin Higgins a friendly neighborhood sports anchor joins us as well and gentlemen we have a very special guest in studio look at this guy all the way from Japan he's back in town our NIL sponsored athlete from San Diego State now a professional golfer Steve Sugimoto good morning my friend good morning welcome back thank you thank you um not the best circumstances no so tell everybody what's going on with your uh your pro career right now um I was able to play the first tournament of the year yep and then hurt my hand and wrists um during the the weekend after I made the cut and haven't played golf since so at all yeah hurt had a stress fracture in my hand a hook of the hand may bone and then tendon out of my wrist did you punch something out of anger frustration now I think it's just overuse too many didn't shake a drive and punch the golf card yeah yeah just because you're a Padres fan doesn't mean you have to mimic all of their injuries with wrists and tendonitis and stress reactions and fractures you they mimic me yeah yeah hundred percent man I uh I'm bummed to hear that news how are you holding up it's got to be tough because I know when it happened you were still in Japan yeah and you're like sitting there rotting not being able to do the thing that you came there to do yeah I wasn't so I have my own apartment in Japan yeah and I was losing my mind I have nothing to do no friends there I have some family there but um I was losing my mind I bought a ps5 um playing MLB the show every day every day yeah and taking walks by myself can you putt could you putt no it was like painful to even putt so I couldn't even grip anything for a while now I'm getting much my strength back in my hand but is it was your left hand it's my left hand oh man so gnarly yeah golfer's hands are really everything dude how far it up were you for fellow Aztec Zander Shoffley finally get his first major at the PGA championship last month I'm gonna be honest I was streaming through a VPN because I wanted to hear the American broadcast I'm gonna hear like Jim Nance and everything um I for sure cried oh yeah I did too I like sobbed oh you're sobbing yeah I was like so happy for him like because you know like he had so he comes close so many times yeah and you grew up with him pretty much I mean you you guys talk and and your friends and your brother in here really tight yeah it was an incredible incredible moment you went to the same college I mean it just it all makes sense and your your reaction to Rory missing the pots at the US Open down the stretch as a pro golfer just how ill does that make you feel to see that um I have like no words like those all it was just can't you just can't miss those you can't miss those if you're him I know how hard it is yeah listen if it's if it's you and if you it rookie and it's rice in the chamois and it's sunday yeah yeah you miss them I get it I fully I go you know what 2018 did not it was a twister even then right the other one though you can't miss that but yeah the thing that broke my heart was his reaction to Bryson making that putt to win and like I haven't it's not you have I haven't experienced it up to that level but like you know like you messed up and then you let someone else leapfrog yeah leapfrog you and then it's just the worst feeling ever somebody texted me the other day after you posted that video you're at the pottery's game the other night and you said uh just got the notification jerks and profiles but to walk this game off somebody texted me and said you guys literally could not have picked a better athlete to sponsor on Ben & Ward my man was the house last night too yeah you were in the house I said you better be going today you gotta go today you gotta got tickets did someone have tickets for steve if he doesn't have them today like they have to go I mean I was looking at tickets but unfortunately I have rehab for my hand that treat me rehab can wait I was going to give you some flash money to like get some beers and stuff like I got you maybe I can go for an hour yes I got to just get in the building at some point that's all we need and then and then get what you get done done getting or the end you need some flash money I'll give you some flash money did if you're if you're strapped for cats I'll give you like 40 bucks to get Jay in the chat's got a ticket for you if you need it so I mean I haven't been able to make any money on the course bro I will give you I'll give you my media path just wear it around your neck nobody's gonna know the difference you should see the picture of me I know we don't I basically like you you're basically like me I mean the picture of me you're identical twins so bad essentially identical just use it and walk in and I'll take the heat if it comes back my way he's up in the press he's up in the press box Steve you know I mean it's Steve yeah what already they don't even look man they really don't even look you know he's up in the press box just sitting up there eating out of the soft serve machine like just eating all the snacks stuff just remember you can't cheer in the press box which is why I don't sit there so oh man it's good to have you in town great to be here or great to have you here with us we love you and and and obviously get that hand ready man get that hand better yeah hopefully I'm back in a few weeks but really I'm not going back until I got a hundred percent I got like a dad question for you yeah so is playing PlayStation with a bad hand the best idea I mean I was this is what I your boat you can't put then you shouldn't be able to play your station says dad over here your bow and I'm me can't do your chores then yeah so how's the hand that hurts a little bit okay are you playing PlayStation yeah yeah yeah how's the hand is that the is that the best thing you could do that's a tough question it is a tough question I had a brace on for a while okay I had a pass and everything that's very old Texas A&M I understand why you have to ask that question but it's a fair question but I valued my mental health over it's true mental health is very very important and as long as you don't put too much strain on it yeah you're right you're right yeah yeah I broke my elbow in college and had to learn how to do everything left handed and it was the nightmare and I do mean everything everything yeah try to go to the bathroom with your left hand try that today is just a fun experiment try to do that today it's super cool or really anything else try to eat a meal with your left hand in a fork that was my whole summer I was in a cast a hard cast was terrible I don't know I'm in the hard questions today yeah I broke my arm when I was in third grade my right arm right handed everything I did with was with my right hand for like three months I had teachers aid with me all day every day wrote my wrote your stuff answers I just was dictated I just dictated it was outstanding oh not bad at all god if I had money I would have a professional dictator take a note take a note take a note that is that is amazing oh you've been eligible to have your cash removed for the last two and a half months I don't I still feel like I need it man says it's rehab playing uh playing place you should listen I have no problem with I agree I just want you to to you know do what's in the best interest of of you and if that if that's what you feel you need to do playing video games then that that's fine by me yeah and the doctor just told me to rest like just rest the only thing you can do that's rest yeah that's fine yeah it's right it's mostly right hand dominant anyway yeah I'm pressing the buttons with them yeah yeah you're good you're holding all right it's just a day listen this is I'm dad this is what dads do they like to bust balls they like to tell you that you're not doing things the right way this is this is how we do it want to open up our phone lines uh we got the next 20 minutes or so before Brett Boone joins us at the bottom of the hour 8 3 3 2 8 8 0 97 3 if you want to call in 8 97 3 potters are going for a 6 in 1 homestand today remember the narrative used to be well this team can't win at home especially can't win at home at night I believe last night was their eighth consecutive night home victory after they started the season some like insane 3 and 18 or something in home night games so they've kind of turned one narrative on its head of course the last road trip turned the other narrative that they were playing well on the road they've got a got a tough another east coast trip to Boston and Texas coming up in their last road trip here of the first half of the season coming up so you'd really like to build up another win if you can and get that sweep and get to three games above 500 again not that that's you know too far away from the 500 mark but you get that opportunity this afternoon Scott to the phones we got our friend baseball Nick is here good morning Nick happy birthday buddy hey thank you very much good to hear from you guys good to hear from you pal what a game what no fun what a game you know it's not it was funny um the whole thing with the umpires given warnings and not they reminded me of the Terry Collins mike dub ejection so good kindergarten or behind ugly and be the whole uh our asses in the jackpot if we don't do something there yep 100 percent how come these umpires asses aren't in the jackpot they know the history they're on they were there last night it's a good question man that's a good question and it's something that that you know seems to be lacking sometimes from baseball and you know i said on the show yesterday that really if you wanted to really get out ahead of the whole thing last and who was their lead-off hitter last night with cj abrams see their lead-off hitter yeah i mean if the only thing to do there if you really well if you know it's coming and you're just going to take the bull by the horn so to speak if you're at a measure the the only thing you can do there the best strategy is to just dot cj cj abrams right in the leg right in the hip that's it and from then he's gonna get pissed run down to first the linker's gonna come out of the dugout you know all everything everybody's debut martina's gonna lose his mind warning warning so now you've you've taken the power away from the national it's how you grab the power and they did not do that did not choose to do that um and and you know we all saw how it transpired Nick thank you for the call and i didn't know it's his birthday yeah it's his birthday yeah congratulations on the tier one championship this week as well yeah buddy thank you um i i do think it is ironic that that both teams get the warning at the same time so one team always gets the chance to act and then the other team doesn't get a chance to respond exactly right it's an inherent inequity very much it's very much it's very much in it's very much in it's very much in it's very much in it's very much in it's very much in it's very much in it's very much in it's in a rookie pitcher with control issues as well i know he only walked one last night so he dialed that in pretty well for for out of measure but yeah man like taking that away from the home team there is is pretty unfortunate so uh i and i'd love to after Davey martinez was was talking about you know how they did it the right way we thought this was a good way to let jerks and know that we're not going to stand for that stuff right without injuring without injuring anyone so here it goes he says right here it was nothing crazy Ruiz said we're just having a conversation about what he did yesterday was nothing really crazy uh just to let him know and he knows he didn't do good yesterday that was it we didn't want to hit him because that's bad for him he's having a good season but i just feel like i got to let him know he's got to show us respect they just do it in an email before the game perhaps maybe a text or something um so yeah man it was it was there's a performative aspect of kbert ruiz standing in front of a sold-out stadium correct standing right in front of a player who's having an all-star season and like tapping him and putting his you know hand on his shoulder he wanted to be seen by his teammates by national spans doing that it wasn't that was what he wanted not not uh you know behind you could have handled it in the tunnels you could have talked about it behind the scenes if you wanted to talk about his free training next year man he wanted to play on a show or a performative show that he was doing something about it then when you're a negative war catcher you have to make your value known any any way you can and again it it sounded like it went over really well he was praised by his manager last night certainly he said pig martina said where the hell is it i just had it oh he said boys will be boys you know if you know you send up playing baseball but boys will be boys it's part of the game some words are said we got out there and played baseball after that we just got to come back and go want to know tomorrow but yeah so again it was very performative it's a good point that you make by keeper ruise and like i said when you're a negative value catcher you have to provide value somewhere and that was it all right let's go to uh mike uh you're next up here with men in woods on ninety-seven three the thing in the morning mike what's up boys how we do about long time yeah you were i'm you were there recovering you were there i was i was you want to know you i'm going to bring from the level to do the conversation though because i was not in my seat during during the first inning i was at board and brew getting my wife a sandwich because it was the first time she because it was the first time she had gone to the game with me in probably a year and i was in board and brew but yeah that's how my night went and then you know all that happened but good on pro far i love my padre this team is is a lot of fun to watch and just when you know you know i i text you a lot was and just when i think that i'm i want to give up on Manny the way he acted as a leader last night was absolutely incredible and he needs all the credit in the world for being a captain and you know it's it's it's hard sometimes when a guy's not producing but last night he came through in more ways than one so that's a good day guys yeah i mean again when he walked up and and it wasn't like uh i'm gonna put my hand in front of you and like back you up it was he grabbed the dude's protector was like get you know get away get away like that's not you're not going to do this right now i mean that's what made the hair of my arm stand up obviously the home run is just spectacular and that's what you dream of but man when he walked up and then you know yanked him away then did you see the little um side by side Manny talking to kibbit Ruiz head down kibbit has head down Manny was giving him the business like bro you don't do that to him you don't do that like and then you saw kibbit Ruiz go my bad you can see it he mounted my bad like he he talked to him like a veteran does and so great leadership for our team but also like great leadership for another baseball player started yeah and he got in there real quickly it was great so it'll split them up let Ruiz no don't put your hands on him and then that homerun was just by the way mike's not the only who missed it mike shilt said it happened so fast between his ejection and the home run and even though it's only short walk between the pottery's dugout and the clubhouse in his office he said i was actually still walking up the steps and i heard everyone going crazy and i knew something must have just happened but he actually did not get to see the Manny Machado home run because he had not made it back to the clubhouse in his office yet to turn on the television to watch it so i can't wait to talk to shilt on Friday 8 3 3 2 8 0 97 3 if you want to join us i also want to hear from the jerks and pro we have the jerks and pro for post game audio so we can get to that as well coming up don't go anywhere more pod race talk on the way on a a very fun wednesday morning here with beta woods back after traffic here at 97 3 the fam all right disaster averted we're getting steve suga moto to the game so you can go three for three in this series with amazing walk off videos and unbelievable fireworks last night at pecko park uh the only problem is is that eventually you know he's gonna have to go back to japan and if they keep winning every single game that he's there we'll run into a problem later in the season we'll have to fly you back for the playoffs from japan what is more important his golf career or the san diego pottery's good point i mean it's a good point you know what you think sometimes you're going to make decisions so uh last night uh our sam love it uh had a chance to get a post game com was it post game comments and sammy no this was uh with annie she was in the clubhouse that's right annie was in the clubhouse good for annie uh doing some uh uh good work here getting some jerks and pro far comments because it was manny who did the post game interview yeah but jerks and everyone wanted to hear from him and annie got some audio this is a jerks and after the game uh in the uh in the pottery's clubhouse oh it's good it was good to to to get don't win can you share with us about what having a shit nothing man i don't care about those stuff always you know i like to play baseball that's me i don't care about those stuff did it surprise you that's something that's being said where can you get to know like you know yesterday after after that celebration they told me that there were players upset you know i don't even know about them but you know it is what it is we care i don't know like i said i don't i don't really care about those stuff and then you get hit after all that goes on i mean any thought about being intentional what are your thoughts on that i don't care i think my my own baseball science yes what did you think when manny hit the home run what was the emotion i love it i love it i love it i love it you know it shows it shows the the thing the things that we have in this football you know we definitely really good team and we we got each other's back they think that a response was coming out and winning games and stuff like that so yeah yes what did Ruiz say to you he didn't like the celebration yesterday like i said they told me that he was one one of them talking uh top step you know and then then barge as i think and then winker but and and and then no idea you know did winker say something to you too before the first day yeah but it wasn't there wasn't any he just said this one yesterday there is no way so i think i think jerks into pretty he's up front genuine guy and when he says i didn't i didn't even realize anything that was going on here i didn't know anyone had a problem with it it tells me that his celebration from two nights ago was extremely just authentic and fan driven and he wasn't trying to show anybody up he was he was not i don't think there's like a malicious bone in jerks his body there's a lot of competitive there's a competitive oh yeah bones in his body but i don't think there's like the malicious take offense sort of thing he just was fired up and wanted to show it for everybody and yeah he said i felt disrespected sure when they intentionally walked i mean we gave the stats he's been insane with the bases loaded so yeah i felt a little disrespected but i he wasn't he wasn't necessarily going out and and trying to embarrass the washington nationals because of that next time you piss me off i'm just gonna say good swing history yeah you'll know good swing yesterday that means you're in the dog house the woods dog house i i love it i what a what a what a player what a person you know that's obviously the right attitude to have i don't care play baseball then i came to play baseball and i i think his track record speaks for itself yeah man he's in the mix a lot he doesn't he you know what he is he said walking epitome of do no harm take no s right which is one of my favorite sayings ever do no harm but take no s that's literally that guy he's not going to hurt you he's not going to do anything you know ridiculous probably not going to get in your face but he's not going to take your your guff man at all um but he's yeah how can you possibly hate that guy the big smile on his face plays hard like playing through injuries it's incredible so we got brat boom coming up but i want you to think this over because it's going to be a round table topic tomorrow as well do you go and try to sign jerks in pro far to an extension and if so what are you comfortable with from a pod raise perspective in trying to lock up jerks and beyond this season think about that and we will uh we'll get back to that at some point and we'll definitely talk about it in the round table we got brat

the umpires were correct not to eject mckenzie gore in that situation didn't think it was intentional why would he throw down at his feet but if i was following his uh twitter timeline correctly last night brat bone thinks a little more like us that it was almost a mandatory ejection that didn't happen good morning brat morning bank no it it not think like us we think like the correct we all

somewhere somewhere different he's in a place and i don't know how to say the name and i've i hear it a bunch of different ways so i don't even want to say it well we'll let him tell us in just a moment i did see this stat i wanted to get to it quickly because it blows my mind the last six times jerks and profars come up with the bases loaded come on here's what he's done three run double grand slam three run double three run double could two run walk off single that bounced over the wall grand slam last night that's nineteen runs batted in in six at bats with the bases loaded matching uh albert pooholes is the only two players who have done that in the last fifty years wow he's the king with the sachs juiced imagine walking somebody to get to him you'd have to be a real moron to do that oh what a what a night it's been one of the last two nights it's been with the potteries nationals we'll get the thoughts of adam jones from his newest far-flung locale right after this check right after this check traffic on 97 3 the fam so if it is true where woods thinks uh adam jones is right now and you say you don't know how to pronounce it i think the correct pronunciation requires a bit of a a lisp to get it right is that right okay so ajay can you tell us uh tell us where in the world is adam jones today i'll say that these are the people of here say that these abitha like you have yeah so where is abitha the derogatory to say but abitha the derogatory to say that if you spoke like that with the speak that we would be in secondary classes right yeah yeah abitha it's like a like but they say it's it's coastal where is it exactly spain isn't it yeah coastal spain it's uh it's up it's up to the coast of spain abitha i i feel weird saying abitha so i'm gonna say abitha but it doesn't really matter but that's the dialect yeah it's a dialect it's called better because i don't want to report you to you know a speech right or anything like that abitha well it's uh good to hear from you what a uh what a couple of nights it's been out at pet co park aj i'm hopefully you've gotten a chance to see this this was insane the last the last couple nights and you know i i kind of take exception with the nationals taking exception uh as you can probably imagine you know being the homer than i am but i i i kind of am under the impression of when you get dusted 97 up around the head and then you had a walk off you you've earned a little bit of chest beating if you're jerks and pro far and um and and they they really took exception to it i thought kind of cooler heads would prevail after 24 hours it didn't i also had a big problem with kebert ruis you know grabbing pro far and patnam on the shoulder very you know very um it just didn't feel right to me i mean it was kind of poking him in the chest i thought that was a little bit over the line i mean first off jerks in a 10 years that means that he's going best into the game uh now we see a lot of guys with a year or two they got a couple tweaks that was retweeted by you know big brands lones fourth center for making a nice play after a nice week but the little distilling and add a cappuccino in the big leagues and they think that they know what's going on so far it's been there done that in a big situation therefore he can you can too just want a little bit different that's okay it's got a problem but it's like you know people aren't they strikes in baseball today you know i mean you ain't earning the right to pimp the ball i didn't get the pimple ball personally until i hit my hunger these guys now pimp their first they can't just sit so the ball just set out you might be optioned if you have a bad week relax be easy but no i actually i like i like i like i mean i think it's good for baseball especially like we talk about the nationals in the Padres but it's not arrived really by infrastructure machination no but they just created it two years ago one of the biggest trades in baseball history so therefore there is a common denominator with each other you got makenzie gourith on last night you know it's crazy though is i think it's i know he didn't mean to do it i'm glad he wasn't ejected i'm glad she was ejected but he wasn't ejected if he didn't mean to hit profile with the pitch i mean coming off the you know coming off the warning he didn't mean and i'm the bad kid should have set up a way you know he didn't mean that to me he didn't mean him by the head would just be a guy in the foot um but then manly coming back at the home around the crowd going crazy like that's baseball that's what we that's what we we got to hate them still it's running the bad group against the OTN again like these are things these are story storyline things and hey i would never it again we i heard Don talk about it last night he said if this is a moment in the season with the Padres we can benchmark june 25th is a moment that things changed and hey they've won a few games with walk ups down and create the fashion hopefully they will offer a lot and continue this this uh check down a good road see now Adam i i agree and Mike Schilt agreed with you that what didn't necessarily think that mckenzie gourith was throwing it at jerks and pro for based on where the pitch was but i i disagree in the fact that when you get a warning and the very next pitch is 98 and hits the guy to me it doesn't really matter where it is you got you got to be ejected from the game i'm not saying you get suspended or anything but i feel like you got to go in that sense you do but you don't i like it i mean i mean there's a there's the old clip of granny johnson throwing that uh throwing a slider at kenny dawton said it dawton doesn't like it yep next pitch like benches cleared next pitch was 97 at his head yeah now that right there that that's talking about that i don't personally go or mentor throw at him but again once the warnings are thrown that they can sit with it the next pitch it wasn't three minutes later on a slider it was the next pitch in 98 so i do get that but if you're watching the game and i like i like how the umpires were uh controlling the game these are like the the catcher wasn't set up inside it wasn't up in the hand it was a fast one that he pulled and they they called it what it calls it i do like shilt didn't toss because again the rules are the rules they gave a warning and we don't have a warning we don't even get a chance and we all know again the manner gets tossed there in the tunnel right there still managing it yeah we were going to ask you about that so here when when he gets tossed i mean you don't he doesn't have to obviously he's not going to go get in his car and drive home and listen to the game on the radio and get his chipotle bowl and sit in front of the tv we know that is he really is he down in the in the tunnel going get Suarez up i mean is is is it that obvious i mean it's if you look at the the bench coach who just took over look at how many times or look at many times a player or somebody just goes in the contract in the clubhouse and just delays the message that's great again here again like he's not a suspended player so he does not have to leave the premises right before the game is called so you know it it yeah he's just not he's just not the face making the decisions on the field but always the matter is always there all they're always there and it was it's it's been high drama i mean really like it's crazy and i kind of agree with Ben i you know i i get what you're saying too but if you if you walk into 7-11 today in Ibiza and you grab a Snickers and forget to pay for it they still can arrest you for shoplifting even though you had no intent of shoplifting you're like hey bro i'm you've got the Snickers in your pocket man you're going in you're paying you're fine and you're going in and uh yeah we we both kind of said hey if they didn't you know if they threw him out of the game but didn't didn't fine him or suspend him i don't think anybody would have a problem with it just well it's wild the the and i know Davey martina is an old school guy i know that and i'm sure it's filtered down to his team Jesse Winker is an old school guy i get it i totally get it but you know it's not like those dudes didn't celebrate big moments too and uh it's just really weird to me when when somebody becomes the dugout police in somebody else's home ballpark like you're when you played at Camden Yards and you had a walk off my man you get you can do whatever you want it's your house right 100% when you said your house go home the other two you just go home i don't even know why they i don't even know why they were still on the field yep like when you get walked off and it's not the playoffs and it's not the last thing where you're eliminated like i was never getting eliminated from the playoffs and i stayed on the field because this is the end of the season it's over with i've been walked off many times i walked my ass off the field and i got mad opened up a beer and was ready for the next day like go do that like there's no point in standing around and saying like oh yeah what are you standing around for like it's again it's it's true this is not it's not late september yeah and it's not the playoffs so a walk over the walk off like you cannot tell them what it doesn't matter how you pin the walk off whatever it's a walk off come on celebrate the situation and i get this there's these you can show up dugout police and there's old older players that are now trying to fleece the game yeah pseudo because they can't get a damn job within the game like dude hey look at the game is evolving i'm sorry it is what it is not everybody's going to harm and kill a broody put their head down a jail mercy switch a head down and run the bases like that or even adam rosales sorry yeah i'm going to do that that's right guys are going to run them on the basis in 18 seconds people are going to take their time they're going to enjoy the home runs a big moment it's part of it and i said this is jail two or years ago baseball is not a science man it's art it is art and it's beautifully drawn picture some picture on terribly some pictures are drawn for console life and everything in between so like the players have fallen especially on the walk off now again if it's the first inning the third inning like come on let's be honest with ourselves we're not sitting there in the ball yeah unless you're manning this situation he also has 300 of them so if you're giving them you're just going to piss them off a little bit more so that's obviously not going to work but it's a guy who has you know 16 home ovens career and he does that he's got a problem with it but if a guy who has 10 years and it's the walk off and enjoy the moment it's going to be all other sports center target adam jones five-time all-stars with us and obviously teammate of manning machado and i want to ask you about the manning home run specifically because we know manning generally knows it's a long season down place things for the most part but how big really was that for him to be able to go on the next pitch and you know put swing out of his shoes a little bit and hit a towering home run right there he's not downplaying that one in the clubhouse right that one's a special moment for all those players i mean i've watched him come up in some really big situations after either being thrown at or other guys being thrown at um crowd going crazy stand still with all different things and he's no goal is going to attack and that does that was picture f men because he sees the situation and he flies in those situations again you can say on the overall year of what he's doing the guy is six weeks away from being exactly and you're not you're not saying anything so um you know always played a long game always know what's on the back of the card and you know with him it's just like a moment like that could be hip-hop a moment like a moment like that could get the potteries going and like Don said this could be the moment that the potteries needed to get their season like started because their father they've been playing 500 the whole year and that's still been adequately if you know the Dodgers have not ran away with the division no one's ran away to division the wild card to still there but there's still a time right now where the Padres can be session before the break the guy with two two and that loops making real off when we talking about last year this is the time where they can reel off that 11 out of 15 something like that right before the break and put themselves in a good position in the second half Adam Jones what's on the menu in Ibiza oh lobster um paella you know a bunch of different breeds this guy sent me a video he's eating lobster on the beach right now like this this nobody else I was yesterday uh you son of a son of a bit so look at you hey man thank you for jumping on we always appreciate you and uh we'll talk to you soon well Adam Jones where in the world Ibiza Ibiza so I had this then Higgins Steve Wood so this isn't the first time this year the jerks and pro far has had a run in an emotional run in with another catcher yeah it happened earlier this season with with Will Smith obviously led to the whole he's not even relevant and and then the next day pro far walks it off so he's already had big moments this year there's a good chance that in two and a half weeks when jerks and pro far becomes an all-star for the first time he goes back to his his original team in Texas at Arlington in the starting lineup he could be batting you know sixth for the national league Will Smith could be batting sixth or seventh I mean they could be right they could be introduced next to each other as they line up on the field as all-stars in Texas next to each other I think it'll be starting lineup I think it'll be fine the more interesting rumor is the Dodgers going after Randy Arosarena right now and remember Arosarena is the one that came up and extended his hand to Will Smith at the WBC and that goober corny dork refused to shake his hand before baseball game which I just I mean that that's interesting to me if Arosarena who's batting like a hundred ends up with the Dodgers I mean you know what's going to happen but but yeah I think that happens all the time guys that have bad blood they end up in the same life and I don't think anything's going to happen no I just think it would be a moment for jerks and to say yes standing there looking at Will Smith hey dude good to be teammates with you here at the all-star game in the starting lineup right here next to each other after what happened earlier this season yeah it's like me and hacksaw playing in a celebrity softball game you know what I mean that would be a great moment for you wouldn't it they still have those saxes I love Ben and Woods yeah Ben and Woods from Ibiza Ibiza all right we've got um we got two more hours coming up including a visit from another big league or on a big league Wednesday Brett Boone is gonna be with us in our eight o'clock hour at eight thirty five you'll definitely want to stick around for that we'll have more maybe a chance for some phone calls as well coming up if you want to join us eight three three two eight 097 3 Padres Nationals talk continuing here on 97 3 the fan halfway home on a Wednesday but it woods 97 3 the fan what a incredible incredible morning it's been so far super fired up great great win last night great win the night before San Diego Padres play a little bit better baseball a lot more inspired baseball certainly and uh it's just been it's been a joy to watch the last couple nights hopefully keep it rolling today I'm woodsie that's Paul Reindel the executive producer Benjamin Higgins a friendly neighborhood sports anchor joins us as well and gentlemen we have a very special guest in studio look at this guy all the way from Japan he's back in town our NIL sponsored athlete from San Diego State now a professional golfer Steve Sugimoto good morning my friend good morning welcome back thank you thank you um not the best circumstances no so tell everybody what's going on with your uh your pro career right now um I was able to play the first tournament of the year yep and then hurt my hand and wrists um during the the weekend after I made the cut and haven't played golf since so at all yeah hurt how to stress fracture in my hand hook of the hand may bone and then tendon out of my wrist did you punch something out of anger frustration no I think it's just overuse too many to shank drive and punch the golf card yeah yeah just because you're a Padres fan doesn't mean you have to mimic all of their injuries with wrists and tendomitis and stress reactions and fractures you don't mimic me yeah yeah hundred percent man I uh I'm bummed to hear that news how are you holding up it's got to be tough because I know when it happened you were still in Japan yeah and you're like sitting there rotting not being able to do the thing that you came there to do yeah I was in so I have my own apartment in Japan yeah and I was losing my mind I have nothing to do no friends there I have some family there but um I was losing my mind and bought a ps5 um playing the MLB the show every day every day yeah and taking walks by myself can you putt could you putt no it was like painful to even putt so I couldn't even grip anything for a while now I'm getting much my strength back in my hand but is it was your left hand it's my left hand yeah oh man so gnarly yeah golfer's hands are really everything dude how far it up were you for fellow Aztec Zander Shoffle to finally get his first major at the PGA championship last month I'm gonna be honest I was streaming through a VPN because I wanted to hear the American broadcast I'm gonna hear like Jim Nance and everything um I for sure cried oh yeah I did too I like sobbed oh you're sobbing yeah I was like so happy for him like because you know like he had so he comes close so many times yeah and you grew up with him pretty much I mean you you guys talk and and your friends and your brother in here really tight yeah it was an incredible incredible moment you went to the same college I mean it just it all makes sense and your reaction to Rory missing the putts at the US Open down the stretch as a pro golfer just how ill does that make you feel to see that um I have like no words like those all it was just can't you just can't miss those you can't miss those if you're him I know how hard it is yeah listen if it's you and if you it rookie and it's Bryson the Shambo and it's Sunday yeah yeah you miss them I get it I fully I go you know what 2018 did not it was a twister even then right the other one though you can't miss that but yeah the thing that broke my heart was his reaction to Bryson making that putt to win and like I haven't it's not you have I haven't experienced it up to that level but like you know like you messed up and then you let someone else leapfrog yeah leapfrog you and then it's just the worst feeling ever somebody texted me the other day after you posted that video you're at the potteries game the other night and you said just got the notification jerks and profiles but to walk this game off somebody texted me and said you guys literally could not have picked a better athlete to sponsor on better words my man was in the house last night yeah you were in the house you better be going today you got to go today got tickets did someone have tickets for steve if you don't have them today because you have to go I mean I was looking at tickets but unfortunately I have rehab for my hand that treatment rehab can wait I was going to give you some flash money to like get some beers and stuff like I got you maybe I can go for an hour yes I mean in the building at some point yeah and then and then get what you get do we need another beginning or the end you need some flash money I'll give you some flash money did if you're if you're strapped for cats I'll give you like 40 bucks to get Jay in the chat's got to take it for you if you need it so I mean I haven't been able to make any money on the course bro I will give you I'll give you my media pass just wearing around your neck nobody's gonna know the difference you should see the picture of me I know we don't I basically like you you're basically like me I mean the the picture of me you're identical twins so bad essentially identical just use it and walk in and I'll take the heat if it comes back my way he's up in the press he's up in the press box Steve you know I mean it's Steve yeah but already they don't even look man they really don't even look you know he's up in the press box you're sitting over there eating out of the soft serve machine like just eating all the snacks stuff just remember you

ready man get that hand better yeah hopefully I'm back in a few weeks but really I'm not going back until I got a hundred percent I got like a dad question for you yeah so is playing PlayStation with a bad hand the best idea I mean I was this is one out your bow man you can't putt then you shouldn't be able to play a station your dad over here your bow and I'm me can't do you chores then yeah so how's the hand that hurts a little bit okay are you playing PlayStation yeah yeah yeah how's the hand is that the is that the best thing you could do that's a tough question it is a tough question I had a brace on for a while okay I had a cast and everything that's pretty old Texas A&M I understand why you have to ask that question but it's a fair question but I valued my mental health over it's true mental health is very very important and as long as you don't put too much strain on it yeah you're right you're right yeah I broke my elbow in college and had to learn how to do everything left handed and it was a nightmare and I do mean everything everything everything yeah try to go to the bathroom with your left hand try that today is just a fun experiment try to do that today it's super cool or really anything else try to eat a meal with your left hand in a fork that was it was my whole summer I was in a in a cast a hard cast was terrible I've been asking the hard questions today yeah I broke my arm when I was in third grade my right arm right handed everything I did was was with my right hand for like three months I had teachers aid with me all day every day wrote my wrote your stuff answers I just was dictated I just dictated it was outstanding oh not bad at all god if I had money I would have a professional dictator take a note take a note that is that is amazing oh you've been eligible to have your cash removed for the last two and a half months I don't I still feel like I need it Matt says it's rehab playing playing PlayStation list I have no problem with I agree I just want you to to you know do what's in the best interest of of you and if that if that's what you feel you need to do playing video games then that that's fine by me yeah and the doctor just told me to rest like just rest the only thing you can do that's rest yeah that's fine yeah you're it's right it's mostly right hand dominant anyway yeah I'm pressing the buttons with them yeah yeah you're good you're holding it's just a day listen this is I'm dad this is what dads do they like to bust balls they like to tell you that you're not doing things the right way this is this is how we do it want to open up our phone lines we got the next 20 minutes or show before Brett Boone joins us at the bottom of the hour 8 3 3 2 8 8 0 97 3 if you want to call in 8 97 3 potters are going for a six-in-one homestand today remember the narrative used to be well this team can't win at home especially can't win at home at night I believe last night was their eighth consecutive night home victory after they started the season some like insane three and 18 or something in home night games so they've kind of turned one narrative on its head of course the last road trip turned the other narrative that they were playing well on the road they've got a got a tough another east coast trip to Boston and Texas coming up in their last road trip here of the first half of the season coming up so you'd really like to build up another win if you can and get that sweep and get to three games above 500 again not that that's you know too far away from the 500 mark but you get that opportunity this afternoon it's got to the phones we got our friend baseball Nick is here good morning Nick happy birthday buddy hey thank you very much good to hear from you guys good to hear from you pal what a game last night what still fun what a game you know i thought it was funny um the whole thing with the umpires given warnings and not there reminded me of uh of the Terry Collins miked up ejection so good kindergarten or behind Utley and the whole our asses in the jackpot if we don't do something there yep 100% how come these umpires asses aren't in the jackpot they know the history they're on they're in their last night it's a good question man that's a good question it's it's something that that you know seems to be lacking sometimes from baseball and you know i said on the show yesterday that really if you wanted to really get out ahead of the whole thing last night who was their leadoff hitter last night was C.J. Abrams see their leadoff hitter yeah i mean if the only thing to do there if you really want if you know it's coming and you're just going to take the bull by the horn so to speak if you're at a measure the the only thing you can do there the best strategy is to just dot C.J. uh C.J. Abrams right in the leg right in the hip that's it and from then he's gonna get pissed run down to first the linker's gonna come out of the dugout you know all everybody's Davey Martinez gonna lose his mind warning warning so now you've you've taken the power away from the nationals it's how you grab the power and they did not do that did not choose to do that um and and you know we all saw how it transpired Nick thank you for the call and i didn't know it's his birthday that's his birthday congratulations on the tier one championship this week as well yeah buddy thank you um i i do think it is ironic that that both teams get the warning at the same time so one team always gets the chance to act and then the other team doesn't get a chance to respond exactly right it's an inherent inequity it very much it's very much you picture out there who's like now afraid to pitch on the inside half of the place and it sucks and a rookie pitcher with control issues is why i know he only walked one last night so he dialed that in pretty well for for out of measure but yeah man like taking that away from the home team there is is pretty unfortunate so uh i and i'd love to after Davey Martinez was was talking about you know how they did it the right way we thought this was a good way to let jerks and know that we're not gonna stand for that stuff right without injuring without injuring anyone so here it goes he says right here it was nothing crazy Ruiz said we're just having a conversation about what he did yesterday it was nothing really crazy uh just to let him know and he knows he didn't do good yesterday that was it we didn't want to hit him because that's bad for him he's having a good season but i just feel like i got to let him know he's got to show us respect may just do it in an email before the game perhaps maybe a text or something um so yeah man it was there's a there's a performative aspect of kbert ruiz standing in front of a sold out stadium correct standing right in front of a player who's having an all-star season and like tapping him and putting his you know hand on his shoulder he wanted to be seen by his teammates by national spans doing that it wasn't that was what he wanted not not a you know behind you could have handled it in the tunnels you could have talked about it behind the scenes if you wanted to talk about it's free training next year man wanted to play on a show or any performative show that he was doing something about it yeah then when you're a negative war catcher you have to make your value known any any way you can and again it it sounded like it went over really well he was praised by his manager last night uh certainly he said pig martina said where the hell is it i just had it oh he said boys will be boys you know if you send up playing baseball but boys will be boys it's part of the game some words are said we got out there and played baseball after that we just got to come back and go one and o tomorrow but yeah so again it was very performative it's a good point that you make uh by kbert ruiz and like i said when you're a negative value catcher you have to provide value somewhere and that was it all right let's go to uh mike uh your next up here with Ben & Woods the 97-3 the fan good morning mike what's up boys how we do about a long time yeah you were i'm you were there recovering you were there i was i was you want to know you i'm gonna bring from the level to do the conversation though because i was not in my seat during during the first inning i was at board and brew getting my wife a sandwich because it was the first time she because it was the first time she had gone to the game with me in probably a year and i was in board and brew but yeah that's how my night went and then you know all that happened but good on pro-far i love my padre this team is is a lot of fun to watch and just when you know you know i i text you a lot was and just when i think that i want to give up on manny the way he acted as a leader last night was absolutely incredible and he needs all the credit in the world for being a captain and you know it's it's it's it's hard sometimes when a guy's not producing but last night he came through in more ways than one so that's a good day guys thanks buddy i mean again when he walked up and and it wasn't like uh i'm gonna put my hand in front of you and like back you up it was he grabbed the dude's protector was like get you know get away get away like that's not you're not going to do this right now i mean that's what made the hair of my arm stand up obviously the home run is just spectacular and that's what you dream of but man when he walked up and then you know yanked him away then did you see the little um side-by-side manny talking to keep it Ruiz head down keeper that his head down manny was giving him the business like bro you don't do that to him you don't do that like and and then you saw keep it Ruiz go my bad you can see it he malded my bad like he he talked to him like a veteran does and so great leadership for our team but also like great leadership for another baseball player started yeah and he got in there real quickly on deck circle split them up let Ruiz know don't put your hands on him and then that homerun was just by the way mike's not the only who missed it mike shilt said it happens so fast between his ejection and the home run and even though it's only short walk between the pod race dugout in the clubhouse in his office he said i was actually still walking up the steps and i heard everyone going crazy and i knew something must have just happened but he actually did not get to see the manny michotte home run because he had not made it back to the clubhouse in his office yet to turn on the television to watch it so can't wait to talk to shilt on Friday 8 3 3 2 8 0 97 3 if you want to join us i also want to hear from the jerks and pro uh we have the jerks and pro for post-game audio so we can get to that as well coming up don't go anywhere more pod race talk on the way on a uh a very fun wednesday morning here with better woods back after traffic here at 97 3 the fan all right disaster averted we're getting steve suga moto to the game so you can go three for three in this series with amazing walk-off videos and unbelievable fireworks last night at pecko park uh the only problem is is that eventually you know he's gonna have to go back to japan and if they keep winning every single game that he's there we'll run into a problem later in the season we'll have to fly you back for the playoffs from japan what is more important his golf career or the san diego pottery it's good point it's good point you know way things sometimes you got to make decisions so uh last night uh our sam leavitt uh had a chance to get a post-game com was it post-game comments and sammy no this was uh with annie she was a club house that's right annie was in the club house good for annie uh doing some uh uh good work here getting some jerks and pro-far comments because it was manny who did the post-game interview yeah but jerks and everyone wanted to hear from them and annie got some audio this is a jerks and after the game uh in the uh in the pod race club house three cents that's been a pretty exciting 24 hours for you how satisfying was it to be able to get there for some time oh it's good it was good too too too good don't win yes what can you share with us about what having to say i'm nothing man i don't care about those stuff always you know i like to play baseball that's me i don't care about those stuff did it surprise you that's something that's being said where can you get there to know like you know yesterday after after that celebration they told me that there were players upset you know i don't even know about them but you know it is what it is who cares i don't know like i said i don't i don't really care about those stuff and then you get hit after all that goes on any thought of it being intentional what are your thoughts on that i don't care i think my my own baseball science yes what did you think when manny hit the home run what was he i love it i love it i love it i love it you know it shows it shows the the things the things that we have in this football you know we definitely have a really good team and we we got each other's back they've got a response and we just come down and we're in games and stuff like that so yeah yes what did Ruiz say to you he didn't like the celebration yesterday like i said they told me that he was one one of them talking a tough step you know and then the bar guys i think and then winker but and and and then no idea you know did winker say something to you too before the first day yeah but it wasn't there wasn't any he just said this one yesterday there is so so i think i think jerks into pretty he's up front genuine guy and when he says i didn't i didn't even realize anything that was going on here i didn't know anyone had a problem with it it tells me that his celebration from two nights ago was extremely just authentic and fan driven and he wasn't trying to show anybody up he was he was not i don't think there's like a malicious bone in jerks his body there's a lot of there's a competitive oh yeah bones in his body but i don't think there's like the malicious take offense sort of thing he just was fired up and wanted to show it for everybody and yeah he said i felt disrespected sure when they intentionally walked i mean we gave the stats he's been insane with the bases loaded so yeah i felt a little disrespected but i he wasn't he wasn't necessarily going out and and trying to embarrass the washington nationals because of that next time you piss me off i'm just going to say good swing yesterday yeah you'll know good swing yesterday that means you're in the dog house the woods dog house i i love it i what a what a what a player what a person you know that's obviously the right attitude to have i don't care play baseball man i came to play baseball and i i think his track record speaks for itself um yeah man he's in the mix a lot he doesn't he you know what he is he said walking epitome of do no harm take no s right which is one of my favorite sayings ever do no harm but take no s that's literally that guy he's not going to hurt you he's not going to do anything you know ridiculous probably not going to get in your face but he's not going to take your your guff man at all um but he's yeah how can you possibly hate that guy the big smile on his face plays hard like playing through injuries it's incredible so we got Brad Boone coming up but i want you to think this over because it's going to be a round table topic tomorrow as well do you go and try to sign jerks in pro far to an extension and if so what are you comfortable with from a pod raise perspective in trying to lock up jerks and be on this season think about that and we will uh we'll get back to that at some point and we'll definitely talk about it in the round table we got Brad Boone though joining us next he had some thoughts on last night's game as well uh our big

insider Brad Boone insider calls are presented by Granger with supplies and solutions for every industry Granger has the right product for you call clickgranger.com or just stop by Brett also the host of the Brett Boone podcast featuring the most notable names in MLB and around sports each week and and woods what makes great the baseball so great is you can take the same situation and everyone can have a different view on it yeah we had uh Adam Jones on earlier and he said he thought the umpires were correct not to eject Mackenzie gore in that situation didn't think it was intentional why would he throw down at his feet but if I was following his uh twitter timeline correctly last night Brett Boone thinks a little more like us that it was almost a mandatory ejection that didn't happen good morning Brett. Good morning bank no he did not think like us we think like the correct side exactly I'll tell you what Adam Jones I love you but at that point it's not about him Ted it's not about intense when when you're warned you're warned and you're a big pitcher and if it to be honest with you I looked at the pitch it didn't look like you meant to hit it look like he was about to win a billion dollars and they said the only thing you can't do is hit him any hit him that's that's the reaction that's my reaction but at that point this is the big link it doesn't matter you were warned seven seconds ago right you were not hit the man in question on top of it and you drill him so it doesn't matter in that particular situation it doesn't matter you're out of the game period whether you've met to drill him or not doesn't matter it just warned you so that's that's my take on yeah I think it was ours too and and yeah listen I mean if rules are rules and you're gonna hand out warnings I mean it's like you're Brett you're a dad I mean how does that go over don't do that you do it yeah and you you know hey don't do that or you're gonna get in trouble and then they do it and you're like oh never mind I don't think you meant to do it doesn't matter like the rules it doesn't it doesn't I'll pay it's like the back and forth with you know this game I played for so long it's like at a certain point you know hey uh he didn't mean to hit you well there's been three or four hit matters at that point it doesn't matter right whether he's meant to hit you we are gonna square this up and and sometimes I was the one that was gonna wear one and it's like I understand that picture doesn't want to hurt me there's not a personal thing between picture and and myself but it's just how we even the score it's like being out it's out like being out in the wild you know it's like this is how nature takes care of things yeah well aren't nature in the big leagues this is how we take care of things and it's an eye for an eye always has been always will be it's a little bit different now because the umpires get more involved in a in a more swift sense but at the end of the day you're gonna take care of business and and yes it does matter you you meant to drill and you didn't mean to drill but doesn't matter everything going on the last thing you do is drill that the person in question right here who's at the in the middle of all this with the first pitch of the game you're automatically gone it's not a question yeah I know you didn't mean him whatever I just told you not to hit him and you hit him you're a big leader you got to have better control yeah 100% 100% and and you know it's it's interesting now how the game has evolved a little bit now you know the Padres decided I think and I've been wrestling a lot with this Brett because there's this thing that's happened in San Diego and it's not only under Mike Shelton it was under Andy Green it was under Jayce Tingler it was under Bob Melvin and it's now kind of under Mike Schiltz as well where there's been a lot of up and in a lot of guys drilled not a lot of you know retaliation you know you say i for an i it always has been always will be you know I think the Padres looked at last night and said we got to win this baseball game first and foremost now doesn't mean something can't happen today or or won't happen today doesn't mean it won't happen in Washington but I think you know at some point Mike Schiltz he has talked about having a long memory I I file things away but you know I don't know man like did you think maybe Major should have should have gone up in it not up in it or throw it at somebody's hip last night or something I think you you hit it on the head our job as big league players is to win the game at all costs now if one of my teammates has been wronged and he thinks he's wrong we will take care of business but you got to pick the right time yeah right clips you win the game at all costs nothing interferes with that the W's and the L's it might be something here's here's my experience I don't I don't recall at all the managers I played for and I played for a lot of great managers the manager ever coming to a pitcher and say I want somebody going down yep never remember that I remember a bullpen uh that veteran bullpen they that those are the guys that usually handle that it's not a discussion I never had a pitcher come up to me and say booney I'm gonna take care of this for you uh it was uh it would just take care of itself those guys in the bullpen they're down there for a reason they're crazy people and they have they don't have a lot to do during the game and they and they then they throw coins and they you know they have a good time out there playing nice and that's what they do they watch they watch every game they watch their players they watch their team they've got their back I played that where I had a bullpen with a Norm Charlton in it and Jeff Nelson and an Arthur Rhodes and they didn't tell me when they were going to drill somebody but you knew just using common sense if something went down in a game uh those guys were going to handle it once again right time right place and it was unspoken it was a nod it was uh you know if somebody would drill somebody they kind of give me a look at second base give me a wink like we got your back and it was never discussed that's how I was brought up that's how it always uh was going down but you're right would you when you say you've got to win the game absolute you win the game at all costs you never jeopardize winning a game to to to get even with an opponent it could be it might be next year and spring training on a backfield in a B game where somebody wears one and and they kind of look at them like yeah that was for last year right yeah okay now we're square yeah and we move on and we play the game but it will be taken care of somewhere I got a question for you Boonie so as a veteran talking about policing the game and doing it the old school right way uh you know and it will be taken care of is does that ever actually have any effect it's not like it's going to stop people from throwing inside other guys are going to get hit or is it just the emotional satisfaction that it kind of a team needs to move on it's the closure that allows you to kind of move on and then get your your business done get your job done because someone on your team has taken care of it it is it's the closure it's weird like I said it's like being out in the wilderness this is how things rectify themselves I remember I got a great quip I'll keep it as quick as I can I'm in Philadelphia and this is in the mid 90s a teammate of mine was Mark Portugal great pitcher for the Houston Astros came over the Reds for a while well he was pitching for Philly and we were in town and we've been teammates a few years ago we're in a blowout game it's like nine to one and the sixth I get to first base I'm in La La Land I'm not even thinking about it nobody's holding me on I steal second without even thinking about the the situation in the game I think Francona's managing he's looking at me like Boonie what are you doing Larry Bo is yelling at me and I'm going I felt like I wanted to crawl into a hole because I'm like I didn't mean to do that what am I doing I know better than this you know in all I think it is all no rain delay okay we finish the game I go over during the rain delay I'm not in the door I see Terry I say I just want to apologize man I said that is the last thing I would say he was yeah Boonie some people have pissed up in the Philly I said and they should be I just want to let you know it was like I I blacked out I didn't mean to steal I'm not trying to he knew you know by my sincerity so Portugal's pitching the next day and he calls me and we go out and have a pop after the game and he goes Boonie do you realize the position you've put me on I said I do porch I said dude just don't hit me in the head he's he called me he called me in the middle of the night he's I can't sleep he goes because I have to drill you tomorrow and I said and I'm ready for it just that hit me in the ass or something but sorry whatever that's even Ben says ass and there here's the thing the next day we got rained out never had a big sport to call and I don't think Philly ever got even with me but that's how deep it goes it was a buddy of mine a guy I respected we went to battle many times but that situation even though he was convinced he knew I meant nothing by it can do it was just a complete just miscalculation on my point he knew I didn't mean to show anybody up he my good buddy had to drill me that's the way the game is that is such a fantastic story they're losing sleep about it at night going I would do this gee it was just so awkward you don't mind necessarily getting hit if you don't know it's coming if you know it's correct oh my god oh my god oh my god you like standing there I gotta protect you you gotta protect that elbow bone and that wrist those ones that really hurt when it hits like just and you're trying to make sure it hits you in the flesh but usually when you do that it hits you like right on the tip of the elbow oh yeah yeah uh it brings you to your knees unbelievable that's great that's man talking to Brad Boone here on uh Ben and Woods this morning so I yeah I look the way that they're playing right now that that game last night when they got down you know you could it certainly sucked the air out of me when they took the lead then they gave it right back but when they got it back at that point Donovan Slano gets that gets that knock and next thing you know potteries are rolling cruising the victory the grand slam for pro far was electric I mean the place the booty like I've been talking about this for a couple of weeks these guys they they expend a lot of energy to be you know a couple of games over 500 a couple of games below 500 can this can this last I mean you can't play every game at this frenetic pace I mean at some point a 9 to 1 blowout either way it's going to be probably welcome for these guys but it has just been hair on fire for the last couple weeks for this team it's been awesome watch two nights ago you know when they come back it with where were they down two down three three come back when that game was big enough then it yesterday was like a movie I mean pro far is getting screamed at bench is kind of semi-clear you know push it shove Machado has words with the catcher yeah seems to be like the the adult talking to the young the youngster we get it sorted out pro far gets drilled smiles goes to first Machado hits the first pitch out okay that's storybook but come on pro far hits a grand slam unreal it's like you're just adding to it I think this team is good I think they've always been good it's just been a puzzling team to not only me probably you and the city of San Diego with all the talent they've had to play as average and I look at the I look at the the National League you know I think there's two elite teams I think there's Philly and then there's LA I think Atlanta and Milwaukee are in that second tier and then everybody else is is right there today if the if the season end of the Padres are in the playoffs okay that's great but I think they've really under achieved as a roster if I look at the talent position by position I think they've under achieved as a roster now you Darvish she had a setback elbow went out for the hamstring now he's got a elbow must grow wait and see on him those two are going to be really pivotal I mean you've got to have those guys in your rotation but the bullpen's been okay and the guy at the end Suarez man I'm watching this guy and it's like this guy you talk about a botista with the Orioles a year ago you talk about Classe and Cleveland this kid Suarez is about as as the game's over as it is and he's just pumping heaters and it's like here see if you can hit it and they can't he's been unbelievable I think 19 out of 20 or 20 out of 21 so they've got the pieces in place I still think they got to go out and look for some pitching I really do but this this nationally is so vulnerable this year and and really be exciting to see what's happened to Petco Park Jackson Merrill actually said that an opponent came up to him and said this is a ridiculous atmosphere it is so electric at Petco Park and well you know it wasn't always that way but it's become a pretty special place to play to watch a game and it's a whole lot of fun no I've been to two games this year and it's been like that that electricity and I'm sure right now it's rocking a lot more than those two games I went to and it was electric then so you know I've been to a few venues in my life Safeco field at you know now T-Mobile in Seattle during the early 2000s it was unbelievable anytime I'd go to New York especially in the postseason Yankee Stadium it that's a different level I think right now what you're seeing in Philadelphia I mean that place is electric but I'm telling you Petco's moving up the pecking order I think Petco's in that conversation for most electric venues right now and it's pretty awesome to watch especially because I'm so close to it being in San Diego appreciate it Boonie as always take care have a good week thanks buddy you got it guys thank you that was Odyssey MLB Incentive Brett Boon insider calls are presented by Granger with supplies and solutions for every industry Granger has the right product for you call click Granger dot com or just stop by and we were talking about that earlier that maybe it kind of makes opposing teams get a little I don't know flustered's the word but certainly they're not used to the kind of environment they've been playing in and North County doc tweeted in and said yeah I think you've hit it the number one park in America greatest city greatest state creates one of the greatest environments but juxtaposed against the lack of a historic reputation for the Padres it makes the opponents kind of unsettled when they come to Petco park yeah I mean as you kind of expect you're going to New York you play the Yankees okay I get that but you're getting that kind of environment in San Diego against well not quite an historic team in the Padres yeah no question and and you know look it's it's when they play like that with with that much enthusiasm and that much fire and that crowd gets going I mean look it's not always that way I was at the game on Saturday night and they were winning pretty handily and we had to tell people to get on their feet for the last out right still learning right but last night night before the place was unreal all right one hour to go Woods he's got his mock NBA draft coming up as well as the Rhymele report all day on San Diego's number one sports station ninety seven three the fan all right thanks again to Brett bone joining us in our last segment don't forget you can tune in every Thursday at 10 a.m. that is a T5 hours from now for ninety seven three the fans commercial free pod praise roundtable featuring Ben and Woods Annie and Elston Gwen and Chris presented by San Diego roundtable pizza for takeout or delivery go to roundtable pizza dot com round table the last honest pizza Steve Sugamoto should have been here tomorrow he could have enjoyed plenty of free pizza we always have leftovers on Thursdays at the roundtable yeah we don't actually get to eat it we just get to smell it and look at it any thoughts on the question that I posed in the last hour that's going to be a roundtable question what if any contract extension offer do you make to keep jerks and pro far in apadre's uniform I saw 20 years two and a half billion dollars in the youtube chat that's uh probably may not not your money still yeah I don't know if they have any money I love that Eric Cosmer by the way is tweeting it's time to start extending pro far yeah it'd be great if we didn't have to pay you 13 million dollars to podcast jesus christ almighty really give him your 13 we could keep it it's done really use that done deal god one year Eric Cosmer's 13 million dollars this they should not deter us in pro far until that 25 that's like robbing a bank and then just going out years later constantly posting about how you robbed a bank yeah it's insane let me just lay low stop talking about it yeah just stop tweeting you want to cover eventually basically go cover other teams that aren't paying you right now we got it here man god bless drove me nuts time to start talking about extending jerks pro far you took all of our money and you don't play to all of it I guess the real dilemma here is that the padre's do have financial constraints they're real we've they've been dealing with them all year long and you don't want to overpay for jerks and pro far and then if you're jerks and pro far but you're like bro you should be paying 30 I'm putting up 20 million dollars a year I mean I saw the mid-season ESPN's like MVP's top I think it was seventh in the MVP balloting basically at the middle of the year that's a 20 to 25 million dollar guy so of course he's gonna want his money but what are jerks and alternatives go play another season for the Rockies right he doesn't want to go anywhere and the Padres also know this so they kind of both have each other over the barrel jerks and can't leave but the Padres can't let jerks and leave either so where where do you end up financially when those are your those are kind of your parameters going into any negotiation again man there's such a mutual there's such a mutual thing here between the two yeah I I cannot in good conscience get on here and say the jerks and pro far should give San Diego a hometown discount or anything like that no jerks and pro far should get his money he's got a family he's freaking earned it and is earning it every single night but let's say the scenario of two years ago presents itself again right for you could stick around for seven million or you get eight from somewhere else you stay for seven you stay for seven just like we're not moving the Cincinnati for a little bit more than we're making now we're just not it's just not going to happen you know they they know that too so there is a bit of a San Diego discount it's it's it's more of like i'm i'm play really well here it's not even a San Diego discount it's it's just i play well here i fit in i'm a best fit it's a best fit for me personally for my family like i don't he doesn't want to he doesn't but he needs to if there is an extension offer maybe he needs to feel that it is fair and not well look what happened the last time you went for the box you you were miserable it's got to feel like you know what yeah this is this is good for all parties Spencer wants to know are there constraints once the CBT resets if they don't go over it this year well we don't know we don't know we do know we do know that the the you know the debt service thing that MLB was pressuring the Padres on it is real so there is some constraints there they can go over the CBT next year without quite as many financial and draft penalties but then you start you know they start a crewing again if you do it so it's never something you can't think about even the Mets even though they go over it all the time they still have to think about where their level is at and what the penalties are because there's draft there's international signing penalties you know they want to go after Rokie Sasaki they want every dollar available to do that and you can't be going over the CBT if you want the ability to do that is a Rokie Sasaki a huge sensation Steve Sugamoto in Japan is that is that I heard he's been hurt the last couple of starts but I would like to see him in a Padres uniform next year he's a he's a household name for sure not in a Dodgers uniform so he's definitely someone to keep an eye on this offseason all right we'll get back to the Padres jerks and talking to second right now Paul he's got some headlines with our rindle report and get things started here with our addition today's edition of the rindle report now tuned it to the mother greatest welcome to the rindle report with Paul rindle hi Paul right two

vacation he went to the draft we hit cheer his first overall pick of the draft hey by the way just as an aside we're gonna see him there with Adam Silver yeah just they look like twins by the way uh two ball riders heads even point to your heads I think you put glasses on Adam Clue though and it's very silly to be the commissioner could you imagine being on vacation this week of all weeks could you imagine he's dying he's dying inside to know the viral content that's coming out of pet co-park this week yes and he's just like he's gonna get his involves or something like yeah he's like i've got to be in Georgia and then we're going to Florida and then yeah to Georgia 104 degrees you know 90 humidity and he's missing all of this there's also a trade last night big one NBA big trade as the uh Brooklyn Nets traded McCall bridges to the New York Knicks so he didn't have to go too far the Knicks uh GM AJ Preller sending five first round draft picks to the Mets you know for McCall bridges which good I mean he's not he's average 26 points a game I would buy I wouldn't call him a five first round draft picks superstar by any stretch of the imagination but hey the Knicks got close last year and they think this can get us closer so let's mortgage everything yeah and bring in another Villanova player remember they had the three Villanova players now they have four Villanova players wow Villanova east in New York City now where's Villanova Philadelphia Philadelphia that's right listen to this paragraph from woj talking about the trade he goes after teetering in the post Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving windows between pursuing the playoffs and the draft lottery the Nets declared a direction and suddenly have 16 first round picks available through 2031 good god they're gonna

have uh steve sygomoto here steve what is your flight what does it look like you fly out of la x to tokyo i usually go sanitos san francisco first and then to tokyo okay about how much total time in the air is that combined probably like 13 hours okay in the in the air all right it's actually not too bad but uh there's a new trend going around it's mostly uh men doing this and they are raw dogging on their flights i saw this this is the one of the worst things i've ever seen and it's maybe the toughest challenge a man could take you've heard of the iron man triathlon this is harder that's not what you may be thinking when you hear that term right uh because ben's eyes just lit up oh yeah we're talking about mile high club a whole new meaning yeah yeah yeah okay so men are doing this on fairly long flights this is insane three hours six hours 17 hour flights across the world and this all started back in may when a 26 year old man from london uh posted about his decision to forgo any and all inflight entertainment inflight services no beverages no snacks no meals all he did was stare at the flight radar map on the seat in front of him he raw dogged the flight i could do that i think i could i could just stare at the map the entire time and watch it as it slowly progresses from no water no matter on snacks and nothing i could do it you just sit there you are like ed gained serial killer i could do that there's no way i mean it wouldn't be fun but you know i'd miss the snacks but i i could get through it how i could go here to dfw which is about a two and a half hour fly i can do it for two and a half i can sit now you can't sleep either now if you could let me sleep i'll raw dog you'd be here to bear us stay awake stay awake and just stare i mean these men are posting photos and they are just sitting upright just staring right at the flight uh the flight radar on the seat back in front of them no nothing no magazine and they're just no phone playing black check on your phone nothing that is a 14 hour flight to afghanistan yeah those military flights with no entertainment they're sitting like sideways in the back of the door by the way now the back of a cargo plane or something now that that sounds miserable and the guy that went viral and kind of started this he said uh he calls raw dogging his flights in comparison to meditation visually you're kind of impaired you only get to look at the seat in front of you to your right or left if you're at the window all you hear is the drumming sound of the engine it's just white noise i'm going to raw dog the rest of the show like the darkness retreat watch this i'm going to raw dog the rest of this show oh no music can't i mean i think you and i can continue to talk poly and and woods is just going to focus in on the buttery smooth sound of my voice for the next 45 minutes it's almost a meditative trance that he's in there'll be a better person for it at the end listening to my sultry sultry tones i i do think that i i don't know if i could do like all the way to asia but maybe across the country five hours staring at the map no way i think i can do it much i can't do it i no no do you really missing the food is terrible the entertainment's usually terrible but no but you bring your own obviously you bring your own snacks you bring your own entertainment i download movies i listen to music oh there's new record i want to hear listen to that like yeah depends on how long the flight is i'll download a couple episodes of something or a movie or whatever people said i was making them very uncomfortable staring into the the camera at least i said earlier in the chat like people must have thought this guy was a terrorist it would just it would be so unsettling you're on an eight-hour flight and there's somebody just sitting there there's a sign there's a sign felt about this putty putty does it on the flight and it drives you laying insane she goes can i get you want a magazine he goes no she goes so you know you don't want like a you have a book or anything he goes no so you're just gonna sit there he goes yeah i see i can't do this anymore bro 100 i would

final matchup look ahead to that coming up next after a check of traffic on ninety seven three the fam wanted to uh offer a quick bit of thank you uh to our brave firefighters out there had a uh that flashback uh to wildfire season yesterday i was driving to work what happened well i was actually i was driving to work and uh i i felt like i wanted to get coffee so i ordered a coffee on the app and i got off at delmore heights yesterday and right there i mean the smoke was absolutely billowing uh the the wildfire that broke out right there in the uh the torrey pines auxiliary reserve right above torrey pines state beach rod near a ton of houses they had to evacuate they had um you know the the helicopters were flying around and the sirens were going all over the place and i was that eerie like it everything turns yellow when you go into the smoke on a sunny day but then it's like clouds but it's not it's smoke that's blocking everything out and then poly told me that that it got um it got to the point where people were actually like flying their own personal drones around the fire to get shots of it but they are interfering with the aerial operations of the san diego fire crews that were trying to put it out yeah some idiots don't do this flying drones get in footage of the flames and you have firefighters you know the helicopters the planes that drop anything that they can to help put out this fire they can't do their job fully when there's drones flying around you are literally putting lives at risks and i believe you can be prosecuted if they find out that you were the one flying a drone feels like something out of what bakers do hey there's a fire in del mar can you get your drone we need the footage bro these guys are just just please can you can you make your way down there no please i'm begging you so big don't do this moment for anyone trying to fly drones interrupting with the firefighters you also had your own don't do this moment yesterday i mean i no good deed my friend goes unpunished you know i did the all venmo someone sixty nine dollars if the pottery is when this came this couple nights ago and somebody you know people were dropping their venmos right and so somebody then took my twitter profile picture my name but they changed it a little bit to at the stevens woods very good created a venmo a darn show they didn't they didn't hack your venmo no my venmo was not they just made their venmo look as much like yours is my no look like my twitter so it doesn't even my venmo picture is completely different than my twitter picture so they took my twitter took most you know my name and added an ass and then so i was getting dms from people going dude is this real do you need five dollars so they just went on your twitter where everybody's venmo handles correct and then they start seeing those venmo handles and started requesting money from them five dollars so i call i had to call venmo support and talk to a Gus what do they fell on hard times yeah and i said hey i tweeted like don't worry about me i've got hundreds of dollars to my name i'm fine all right so don't send me five dollars i don't need it because of their quest of five dollars but then said they were giving me 25 dollars for a sandwich very well done guys very very well done um so i had to call venmo support he's like he goes it so it's not they didn't hack your venmo they're impersonating you and we will make sure that they don't do it again but i just got another one but i don't know if it came yesterday Fritz just sent me one it said stevens i am hungry now what steven woods canceled a request for five dollars oh so they must have gone in and and fixed it so sorry about that everybody i won't be asking for anybody's venmo anymore and um it was not me asking you for for five dollars i'm good i'm actually not to say that at some point it won't come to them correct yeah i i've i've i've hit some parlays recently we've had some bonuses everything's good you know everything's good and financially uh here for for me but you know 15 years down the line if someone's going hey you remember that men in woods show you used to enjoy yeah i've hit some hard times i need five dollars if you've been me five bucks it might actually be you at that point it could be i mean i'm not going to rule anything i'm always said i'm not going to ask or my audience for anything you know i'm not it listen if it's charity or something hey share it if you can't donate whatever but it's never going to be to benefit me financially does that make sense like even when we sell a t-shirt that goes into the show fund like that's to buy stuff for the christmas show and everything else i'm not i'm not trying to profit i'm always very careful i didn't receive one of those requests but had i gotten one i would have said no yeah we know we know and had it come from you actually i also would have said no because i'm very careful about not sending any money i and it was weird i got anyone i woke up this morning too and i had a uh i had a i woke up this morning the first text i saw was like some 903 number that said you know your car was like on the fast lane the the easy pass or something fast track the h o v lane and i woke up it was like three o'clock in the morning and i looked at my phone i go did i get in a wrong lane because i was driving like mad yesterday i was up to forest ranch a couple of times i'm like is there a there's not there's no toll road up there yeah no if you use the h o v lane but i did it that can be a toll road as well okay but i did not do that so i knew this is a scam i did click on it just for a second too late and it said it said uh it was like for the bay area and i was like now this isn't they've already got you now whatever it's fine i'm gonna get much from someone's riding around california for free on your tab now find on me whatever and uh don't send me any money please i don't need it at this point might someday all right let's take a final timeout when we come back we'll look ahead at the series finale today at petco park we got afternoon day baseball for you fireworks today couple of uh yeah it might be i mean there's no reason why there couldn't be we got a couple collars on the line as well stay there final segment of benewoods on the way next on sanny it goes number one sports station 97 3 the fan interesting note here on jeremy astrada welcome back it's been a wood's final segment here on a wednesday and clearly he is uh he's not the same pitcher who struck out 13 banners in a row earlier this season uh but kevin a c road in his newsletter this morning he's still 15 pounds down from when he developed the flu like symptoms earlier this month june 11 right yeah he's uh he's resumed to eating semi regularly but still limited to just white rice and bread right now he's handing heat protein down really he's available most nights he wants to give everything that he's got obviously he's been weakened by this illness that he's still kind of dealing with so if he's not quite the perfect setup man uh hopefully he'll be able to get back to that as he continues to get a little bit healthier just when moving on just when something starts going good they're like he's got a stomach eating virus it's loses 15 how do i get it 15 pounds you don't want that kind of weight loss that's no yeah i i i was just i was looking at the the thing he was talking about how a gnarly it's kind of been and he said when he had code he gives us nowhere close to we all belong outside we're drawn to nature whether it's the recorded sounds of the ocean we doze off to or the succulents that adorn our homes nature makes all of our lives well better despite all this

super fired up great great win last night great win the night before san diego potteries play a little bit better baseball a lot more inspired baseball certainly and uh it's just been it's been a joy to watch the last couple nights hopefully keep it rolling today i'm woodsy that's paul rinder the executive producer benjamin agens your friendly neighborhood sports anchor joins us as well and uh gentleman we have a very special guest in studio look at this guy all the way from japan he's back in town our n_i_l_ sponsored athlete from san diego state now a professional golfer steve sugimoto good morning my friend good morning welcome back thank you thank you um not the best circumstances no so tell everybody what's going on with your uh pro career right now um i was able to play the first turn of the year yep and then hurt my hand and wrists um during the the weekend after i made the cut and haven't played golf since so at all yeah hurt had a stress fracture in my hand a hook of the hand-made bone and then tended out of my wrist did you punch something out of anger frustration no i think it's just overuse too many change drive and punch the golf card yeah yeah just because you're a padre's fan doesn't mean you have to mimic all of their injuries with wrists and tendinitis and stress reactions and fractures you they mimic me yeah yeah hundred percent man i uh i'm bummed to hear that news how are you holding up it's got to be tough because i know when it happened you were still in japan yeah and you're like sitting there rotting not being able to do the thing that you came there to do yeah i was in so i have my own apartment in japan yeah and i was losing my mind i have nothing to do no friends there i have some family there but um i was losing my mind about a ps5 um playing the mOB the show every day every day yeah and taking walks by myself can you putt could you putt no it was like painful to even putt so i couldn't even grip anything for a while now i'm getting much my uh strength back in my hand but is it was your left hand it's my left hand oh man so gnarly yeah golfer's hands are really everything dude how far it up were you for fellow Aztec Zander Shoffle to finally get his first major at the pga championship last month i'm gonna be honest i was streaming through a vpn because i wanted to hear the american broadcast i'm gonna hear like Jim Nance and everything um i for sure cried oh yeah i did too like sobbed oh you're sobbing yeah i was like so happy for him like because you know like he had so he comes close so many times yeah and you grew up with him pretty much i mean you you guys talk and and your friends and your brother in here really tight yeah uh it was an incredible incredible moment you went to the same college i mean it just it all makes sense and your your reaction to Rory missing the pots at the us open down the stretch as a pro golfer just how ill does that make you feel to see that um i have like no words like those all it was just can't you just can't miss those you can't miss those if you're him i know how hard it is yeah listen if it's if it's you and if you it's rookie and it's rice and the shambo and it's sunday yeah yeah you miss them i get it i fully i go you know what 2018 did not it was it was a twister even then right the other one though you can't miss that but yeah the thing that broke my heart was his reaction to brison making that putt to win and like i haven't it's not you have i haven't experienced it up to that level but like you know like you messed up and then you let someone else leapfrog yeah leapfrog you and then it's just the worst feeling ever somebody texted me the other day after you posted that video you're at the pottery's getting the other night and you said uh just got the notification jerks and profiles but to walk this game off uh somebody texted me and said you guys literally could not have picked a better athlete to sponsor on benetwood my man was the house last night too yeah you were in the house i said yeah you better be going today you got to go today you got to get tickets did someone have tickets for steve if you don't have them today because you have to go i mean i i was looking at tickets but unfortunately i have rehab for my treatment rehab can wait i was going to give you some flash money to like get some beers and stuff like i i got you maybe i can go for an hour yes i mean in the building that's all we meet and then get what you get done done you need some flash money i'll give you some flash money did if you're if you're strapped for cats i'll give you like 40 bucks to get jay in the chat's got a ticket for you if you need it so i mean i haven't been able to make any money on the course bro i will give you i'll give you my media pass you just wear it around your neck nobody's gonna know the difference you should see the picture of me i know we don't i basically like you you're basically like me i mean the the picture of me you're identical twins and so bad essentially identical just use it and walk in and i'll take the heat if it comes back my way he's up in the press he's up in the press box steve you know i mean it's steve yeah i'm already deep they don't even look man they really don't even look you know he's up in the press box just sitting up there eating out of the soft serve machine like just eating all the snacks stuff just remember you can't share in the press box which is why i don't sit there so uh man it's good to have you in town great to be here or great to have you here with us we love you and and and obviously get that hand ready man get that hand better yeah hopefully i'm back in a few weeks but really i'm not going back until i got a perspective i got like a dad question for you yeah so is playing playstation with the bad hand the best idea i mean i was this is one out your bow you can't putt then you shouldn't be able to play a playstation says dad over here your bow and i'm me can't do your chores then yeah so how's the hand that hurts a little bit okay are you playing playstation yeah yeah yeah how's the hand is that the is that the best thing you could do that's a tough question it is a tough question i had a brace on for a while okay i had a cast and everything it's fair and it didn't say no my understanding why you have to ask that question i always feel like you have to ask that question but it's a fair question it's a fair question but i valued my mental health over it's true mental health is very very important and as long as you don't put too much strain on it you're right you're right yeah yeah i broke my elbow in college and had to learn how to do everything left-handed and it was a nightmare and i do mean everything everything everything yeah try to go to the bathroom with your left hand try that today it's just a fun experiment try to do that today it's super cool or really anything else try to eat a meal with your left hand in a fork that was it was my whole summer i was in a cast a hard cast was terrible i don't know i'm asking the hard questions today yeah i broke my arm when i was in third grade my right arm right handed everything i did was with my right hand for like three months i had teachers aid with me all day every day wrote my wrote your stuff answers i just wasn't dictated i just dictated it was outstanding oh not bad at all god if i had money i would have a professional dictator take a note take a note take a note that is that is amazing oh you've been eligible to have your cash removed for the last two and a half months i don't i still feel like i need it matt says it's rehab playing uh playing place listen i have no problem with i agree i just want you to to you know do what's in the best interest of of you and if that if that's what you feel you need to do playing video games then that that's fine by me yeah and the doctor just told me to rest like just rest the only thing you can do that's rest yeah that's fine yeah it's right it's mostly right hand dominant anyway yeah i'm pressing the buttons with them yeah yeah you're good you're holding just a day listen this is i'm dad this is what dads do they like to bust balls they like to tell you that you're not doing things the right way this is this is how we do it want to open up our phone lines uh we got the next 20 minutes or so before Brett Boone joins us at the bottom of the hour eight three three two eight eight zero ninety seven three if you want to call in eight ninety seven three potters are going for a six-in-one homestand today remember the narrative used to be well this team can't win at home especially can't win at home at night i believe last night was their eighth consecutive night home victory after they started the season some like insane three and eighteen or something in home night games so they've kind of turned one narrative on its head of course the last road trip turned the other narrative that they were playing well on the road they've got a got a tough another east coast trip to boston and texas coming up in their last road trip here of the first half of the season coming up so you'd really like to build up another win if you can and get that sweep and and get to three games above 500 again not that that's you know too far away from the 500 mark but you get that opportunity this afternoon it's got to the phones we got uh our friend baseball Nick is here good morning Nick happy birthday buddy hey thank you very much good to hear from you guys good to hear from you pal appreciate it what a game last night what no fun what a game you know i thought it was funny um the whole thing with the umpires given warnings and not they're reminded me of uh uh the terry colons miked up ejection so good kindergarten or behind utley and being the whole our asses in the jackpot if we don't do something there yep you know 100 percent what how how come these umpires asses aren't in the jackpot they know the history they're on down they were there last night it's a good question man that's a good question it's it's something that that you know seems to be lacking sometimes from baseball and you know i said on the show yesterday they're really if you wanted to really get out ahead of the whole thing last night who was their leadoff hitter last night was cj abrams see their leadoff hitter yeah i mean if the only thing to do there if you really want if you know it's coming and you're just going to take the bull by the horn so to speak if you're at a measure the the only thing you can do there the best strategy is to just dot cj cj abrams right in the leg right in the hip that's it and from then he's going to get pissed run down to first the the winker's going to come out of the dugout you know all everybody's david martina is going to lose his mind warning warning so now you've you've taken the power away from the national it's how you grab the power and they did not do that did not choose to do that and and you know we all saw how it transpired nick thank you for the call and i didn't know it's his birthday yeah it's his birthday today congratulations on the the tier one championship this week as well yeah buddy thank you um i i do think it is ironic that that both teams get the warning at the same time so one team always gets the chance to act and then the other team doesn't get a chance to respond exactly right it's an inherent inequity very much it's very much it's very much it's very much it's very much it's very like now afraid to pitch on the inside half of the place well and it sucks and a rookie pitcher with control issues while you know he only walked one last night so he dialed that in pretty well for for out of measure but yeah man like taking that away from the home team there is is pretty unfortunate so uh i and i'd love to after david martinez was was talking about you know how they did it the right way we thought this was a good way to let jerks and know that we're not going to stand for that stuff right without injuring without injuring anyone so here it goes he says right here it was nothing crazy ruis said we're just having a conversation about what he did yesterday was nothing really crazy uh just to let him know and he knows he didn't do good yesterday that was it we didn't want to hit him because that's bad for him he's having a good season but i just feel like i got to let him know he's got to show us respect maybe just do it in an email before the game perhaps maybe a text or something um so yeah man it was it was there's a performative aspect of kbert ruis standing in front of a sold out stadium correct standing right in front of a player who's having an all-star season and like tapping him and putting his you know hand on his shoulder he wanted to be seen by his teammates by national fans yep doing that it wasn't that was what he wanted not not a you know behind you could have handled it in the tunnels you could have talked about it behind the scenes if you wanted to talk about it's free training next year man wanted to play on a show or any performative show that he was doing something about it then when you're a negative war catcher you have to make your value known any any way you can and again it it sounded like it went over really well he was praised by his manager last night uh certainly he said did martina said where the hell is it i just had it oh he said boys will be boys you know if you know you send up playing baseball but boys will be boys it's part of the game some words are said we got out there and played baseball after that we just got to come back and go want to know tomorrow but yeah so again it was very performative it's a good point that you make by keeper ruis and like i said when you're a negative value catcher you have to provide value somewhere and that was it all right let's go to a mic uh your next up here with beno woods the 97-3 the fan good morning mike what's up boys how we do about a long time yeah you were i'm you were there recovering you were there i was i was you want to know you i'm going to bring from the levity to the conversation though because i was not in my seat during during the first inning i was at bordon brew getting my wife a sandwich because it was the first time she because it was the first time she had gone to the game with me in probably a year and i was in bordon brew but yeah that's how my night went and then you know all that happened but good on pro far i love my padre this team is is a lot of fun to watch and just when you know you know i i text you a lot was and just when i think that i want to give up on manny the way he acted as a leader last night was absolutely incredible and he needs all the credit in the world for being a captain and you know it's it's it's hard sometimes when a guy's not producing but last night he came through in more ways than one so that's a good day guys thanks buddy i mean again when he walked up and and it wasn't like uh i'm gonna put my hand in front of you and like back you up it was he grabbed the dude's protector was like get you know get away get away like that's not you're not going to do this right now i mean that's what made the hair on my arm stand up obviously the home run is just spectacular and that's what you dream up but man when he walked up and then you know yank them away then did you see the little um side-by-side manny talking to kebert ruise head down kebert had his head down manny was giving him the business like bro you don't do that to him you don't do that like and then you saw kebert ruise go my bad you can see it he maled it my bad like he he talked to him like a veteran does and so great leadership for our team but also like great leadership for another baseball player started yeah and he got in there real quickly it was great so we'll split them up let ruise no don't put your hands on him and then that home run was just by the way mike's not the only who missed it mike shilt said it happened so fast between his ejection and the home run and even though it's only short walk between the pottery's dugout and the club house and his office he said i was actually still walking up the steps and i heard everyone going crazy and i knew something must have just happened but he actually did not get to see the manny mocha home run because he had not made it back to the clubhouse in his office yet to turn on the television to watch it so can't wait to talk to shilton prada 833 28093 if you want to join us i also want to hear from the jerks and pro uh we have the jerks and pro for post-game audio so we can get to that as well coming up don't go anywhere more pod race talk on the way on a uh a very fun wednesday morning here with benewoods back after traffic here at 97.3 the fan all right disaster averted we're getting steve suga moto to the game so you can go three for three in this series with amazing walk-off videos and unbelievable fireworks last night at pecco park uh the only problem is is that eventually you know he's gonna have to go back to japan and if they keep winning every single game that he's there will run into a problem later in the season we'll have to fly you back for the playoffs from japan what is more important his golf career or the san diego pottery it's a good point it's a good point you know what you think sometimes you got to make decisions so uh last night uh our sam love it uh had a chance to get a post-game com was it post-game comments and sammy no this was uh with any this was any clubhouse that's right any was in the clubhouse good for any uh doing some uh uh good work here giving some jerks and pro-fark comments because it was manny who did the post-game interview yeah but jerks and everyone wanted to hear from him and Annie got some audio this is a jerks and after the game uh in the uh in the pod race clubhouse jerks has been a pretty exciting 24 hours 48 how satisfying was this to be able to take that kind of something oh it's good it was good to to get the win i don't care about those stuff always you know i like to play baseball that's me i don't care about those stuff didn't surprise you but something is being said where can you get to know like you know yesterday after after that celebration they told me that there were players upset you know i don't even know about them but you know it is what it is what cares i don't know like i said i don't i don't really care about those stuff and then you get hit after all that goes on and any thought of it being intentional what are your thoughts on that i don't care i think my my own baseball science yes what did you think when manny hit the home run what was he i love it i love it i love it i love it you know it shows it shows the the things the things that we have in this football you know we have a really good team and we we got each other's back i think that a responsibility has come down and we're in games and stuff like that yeah yes what did Ruiz say to you he didn't like the celebration yesterday like i said they told me that he was one one of them talking uh top step you know and then bar guys i think and then winker but and and and then no idea you know did winker say something to you too before the first a b yeah but it wasn't it wasn't he he just said this one yesterday there is so so i think i think jerksons are pretty he's up front genuine guy and when he says i didn't i didn't even realize anything that was going on here i didn't know anyone had a problem with it it tells me that his celebration from two nights ago was extremely just authentic and fan driven and he wasn't trying to show anybody up he was he there was not i don't think there's like a malicious bone in jerks his body there's a lot of competition there's a competitive oh yeah bones in his body but i don't think there's like the malicious take offense sort of thing he just was fired up and wanted to show it for everybody and yeah he said i felt disrespected sure when they intentionally walked i mean we gave the stats he's been insane with the bases loaded so yeah i felt a little disrespected but i he wasn't he wasn't necessarily going out and and trying to embarrass the washington nationals because of that next time you piss me off i'm just going to say good swing yesterday yeah you'll know good swing yesterday that means you're in the dog house the woods dog house i love it i what a what a what a player what a person you know that's obviously the right attitude to have i don't care play baseball then i came to play baseball and i i think his track record speaks for itself um yeah man he's in the mix a lot he doesn't he you know what he is he said walking epitome of do no harm take no s right which is one of my favorite sayings ever do no harm but take no s that's literally that guy he's not going to hurt you he's not going to do anything you know ridiculous um probably not going to get in your face but he's not going to take your your guff man at all but he's yeah how could you possibly hate that guy the big smile on his face plays hard like playing through injuries it's incredible so we got Brad Boone coming up but i want you to think this over because it's going to be a roundtable topic tomorrow as well do you go and try to sign jerks in pro far to an extension and if so what are you comfortable with from a pod raise perspective in trying to lock up jerks and be on this season think about that and we will

Boone podcast featuring the most notable names in mlb around sports each week and and woods what makes great that baseball so great is you can take the same situation and everyone can have a different view on it yeah we had uh adam jones on earlier and he said he thought the umpires were correct not to eject mckenzie gore in that situation didn't think it was intentional why would he throw down at his feet but if i was following his uh twitter timeline correctly last night brat bonne thinks a little more like us that it was almost a mandatory ejection that didn't happen good morning brat morning bank no it it it not think like us we think like the correct side of the hi exactly i'll tell you what adam jones i love you but at that point it's not about intent it's not about intent when when you're warned you're warned and you're a big picture and if it to be honest with you i looked at the pitch it didn't look like you meant to hit it look like he was about to win a billion dollars and they said the only thing you can't do is hit him any hit him that's that's the reaction that's my reaction but at that point this is the big link it doesn't matter you were warned seven seconds ago right you are not hit the man in question on top of it and you drill him so it doesn't matter in that particular situation it doesn't matter you're out of the game period whether you've met the drill or not doesn't matter it just warned you so that's that's my take on yeah i think it was ours too and and yeah listen i mean if rules or rules and you're gonna hand out warnings i mean it's like you're bret you're a dad i mean how does that go over don't do that you do it i am a father yeah and you you know i don't do that or you're gonna get in trouble and then they do it and you're like oh never mind i don't think you meant to do it it doesn't matter like the rules it doesn't it doesn't i'll pay it's like the back and forth with you know this game i played for so long it's like at a certain point you know hey uh he didn't mean to hit you well there's been three or four hit matters at that point it doesn't matter right whether he's meant to hit you we are going to square this up and and sometimes i was the one that was going to wear one and it's like i understand that picture doesn't want to hurt me there's not a personal thing between picture and and myself but it's just how we even the score it's like being out it's out like being out in the wild you know it's like this is how nature takes care of things yeah well our nature in the big leagues this is how we take care of things and it's an eye for an eye always has been always will be it's a little bit different now because the umpires get more involved in it in a more swift sense but at the end of the day you're going to take care of business and and yesterday doesn't matter you you meant to drill and you didn't mean to drill but doesn't matter everything going on the last thing you do is drill the the person in question right here who's at the in the middle of all this with the first picture the game you're automatically gone it's not a question yeah i know you didn't mean it whatever i just told you not to hit him and you hit him you're a big leader you got to have better control yeah hundred percent hundred percent and and you know it's it's interesting now how the game has evolved a little bit now you know the pottery's decided i think and i've been wrestling a lot with this bret because the there's this thing that's happened in san diego and it's not only under mike shilt it was under Andy green it was under jase tingler it was under bob melvin and it's now kind of under mike shilt as well um where there's been a lot of up and in a lot of guys drilled not a lot of you know uh retaliation you know you say i for an i it always has been always will be you know i think the pottery's looked at last night and said we got to win this baseball game first and foremost now doesn't mean something can't happen today or or won't happen today doesn't mean it won't happen in washington um but i think you know at some point mike shilt he has talked about having a long memory i i've filed things away but you know i i don't know man like did you think maybe major should have should have gone up in it not up in it or throw it at somebody's hip last night or something i think you you hit it on the head our job as big league players is to win the game at all costs now if one of my teammates has been wronged and he thinks he's wrong um we will take care of business but you got to pick the right time yeah right place you win the game at all costs nothing interferes with that the W's and the L's it might be something it here's here's my experience i don't i don't recall at all the managers i played for and i played for a lot of great managers the manager ever coming to a pitcher and say i want somebody going down never remember that i remember a bullpen uh that uh veteran bullpen they that those are the guys that usually handle that it's not a discussion i never had a pitcher come up to me and say booney i'm going to take care of this for you uh it was uh it would just take care of itself those guys in the bullpen they're down there for a reason they're crazy people and they have they don't have a lot to do during the game and they and they and they throw coins and they you know they have a good time out there playing dice and that's what they do they watch they watch every game they watch their players they watch their team they've got their back i played in it where i had a bullpen with a norm trump and it and it's jeff nelson and arthur roads and they didn't tell me when they were going to drill somebody but you knew just using common sense if something went down in a game uh those guys were going to handle it once again right time right place and it was unspoken it was a nod it was uh you know if somebody would drill somebody they kind of give me a look at second base give me a wink like we got your back and it was never discussed that's how i was bought up that's how it always uh was going down but you're right would you when you say you've got to win the game absolute you win the game at all costs you never jeopardize winning a game to to to get even with an opponent it could be it might be next year and spring training on a backfield and a B game where somebody wears one and and they kind of look at them like yeah that was for last year right yeah okay now we're square yeah and we move on and we play the game but it will be taking care of somewhere i get a question for you bony that so as a veteran talking about policing the game and doing it the old school right way uh you know and it will be taken care of is does that ever actually have any effect it's not like it's going to stop people from throwing inside other guys are going to get hit or is it just the emotional satisfaction that kind of a team needs to move on it's the closure that allows you to kind of move on and then get your your business done get your job done because someone on your team has taken care of it it is it's the closure it's weird like i said it's like being out in the wilderness this is how things rectify themselves um i remember uh i i i got a great quip i'll keep it as quick as i can i'm in philadelphia and this is in the mid 90s uh a teammate of mine was mark portugal great pitcher for the use and afters came over the reds for a while well he was pitching for Philly and we were in town and we've been teammates a few years ago we're in a blowout game it's like 9 to 1 in the sixth i get to first base i'm in law law land i'm not even thinking about it nobody's holding me on i steal second without even thinking about the the situation of the game i think francona's manager's looking at me like bloonie what are you doing Larry bow is yelling at me and i'm going i felt like i wanted to crawl into a hole because i'm like i didn't mean to do that what am i doing i know better than this you know in all of sick it is oh no rain delay okay we finished the game i i go over during the rain delay i'm not in the door i see terry i say i just want to apologize man i said that is the last thing i would say he was yeah bonnie some people it pissed up in the billie i said and they should be i just want to let you know it it was like i i would blacked out i didn't mean to steal i'm not trying to he knew you know by by my sincerity so portugal's pitching the next day and he calls me and we go out and have a pop after the game and he goes booing do you realize the position you've put me on i said i do porch i said dude just don't hit me in the head he's he called me he called me in the middle of the night he's i can't sleep he goes because i have to drill you tomorrow and i said and i'm ready for it just that hit me in the ass or something but sorry forever that's good even ben says ass and they here's the thing the next day we got rained out never had to face portugal and i don't think filly ever got even with me but that's how deep it goes it was a buddy of mine a guy i respected uh we went to battle many times but that situation even though he was convinced he knew i meant nothing by it he knew it was just a complete uh just miscalculation on my point he knew i didn't mean to show anybody up he my good buddy had to drill me that's the way the game is that is such a fantastic story they're losing sleep about it at night going he's what i want to do this geez it was just so awkward you don't mind necessarily getting hit if you don't know it's coming if you know it's correct oh my god oh my god oh my god you're like standing there i gotta protect you you got to protect that elbow bone and that risk those ones that really hurt when it hits like just and you're trying to make sure it hits you in the flex but usually when you do that it hits you like right on the tip of the elbow oh yeah yeah uh brings you to your knees unbelievable that's great that's man talking to Brad Boone here on Ben and Woods this morning so yeah i look the way that they're playing right now that game last night when they got down you know you could it certainly sucked the air out of me when they took the lead then they gave it right back but when they got it back at that point Donovan Slano gets that gets that knock and next thing you know potteries are rolling cruising the victory the grand slam for pro far was electric i mean the place the booty like i've been talking about this for a couple of weeks these guys they they expend a lot of energy to be you know a couple of games over 500 a couple of games below 500 can this can this last i mean you can't play every game at this frenetic pace i mean at some point a nine to one blowout either way it's going to be probably welcome for these guys but um it has just been hair on fire for the last couple weeks for this team it's been awesome to watch two nights ago you know when they come back it was where were they down two down three three come back and win that game uh was big enough then yesterday was like a movie i mean pro far is getting screamed at bench is kind of semi-clear you know push and shove machado has words with the catcher yeah seems to be like the the adult talking to the young the youngster uh we get it sorted out pro far gets drilled smiles goes to first machado it's the first pitch out okay that's storybook but come on pro far hits a grand slam unreal it's like you're just adding to it i think this team is good i think they've always been good uh it's just been a puzzling team to not only me probably you and the city of San Diego yep with all the talent they've had to play as average and i look at the i look at the the national league you know i think there's two elite teams i think there's Philly and then there's LA i think it land in mil walkier in that second tier and then everybody else is is right there today if the if the season end of the Padres are in the playoffs okay that's great but i think they've really under achieved as a roster if i look at the talent position by position i think they've under achieved uh uh as a roster now you darvish she had a setback elbow went out for the hamstring now he's got elbow must grow uh wait and see on him those two are going to be really pivotal i mean you've got to have those guys in your rotation but the bullpen's been okay and the guy at the end Suarez man i'm watching this guy it's like this guy you talk about a bought teaspoon with the Orioles a year ago uh you talk about classee and cleveland this kid Suarez is about as as the game's over as it is and he's just pumping heaters and it's like here see if you can hit it and they can't he's been unbelievable i think 19 out of 20 or 20 out of 21 so they've got the pieces in place i still think they got to go out and look for some pitching i really do but that this this uh nationally is so vulnerable this year and and really it'd be exciting to see what's happened to pet co-part Jackson Merrill actually said that an opponent came up to him and said this is a ridiculous atmosphere it is so electric at pet co-park and well you know it wasn't always that way but it's become a pretty special place uh to play to watch a game and it's it's a whole lot of fun no i've been to two games this year and it's been like that that electricity and i'm sure right now it's rocking a lot more than those two games i went to uh and it was electric then so you know i've been to a few venues in my life safe coat field at you know now t-mobile in seattle during the early 2000s it was unbelievable anytime i'd go to new york especially in the postseason yankee stadium uh it that's a different level i think right now what you're seeing in philadelphia i mean that place is electric but i'm telling you pet co's moving up the pecking order i think pet co's in that conversation for most electric venues right now and it's pretty awesome to watch especially because i'm so close to it being in san diego appreciate it boney as always take care have a good week thanks buddy you got it guys that was honestly mlb in center brett bonne insider calls are presented by granger with supplies and solutions for every industry granger has the right product for you call click granger dot com or just stop by and we were talking about that earlier that maybe it kind of makes opposing teams get a little i don't know flustered's the word but certainly they're not used to the kind of environment they've been playing in and uh north county doc tweeted in and said yeah i think you've hit it the number one park in america great a city greatest state creates one of the greatest environments but juxtaposed against the lack of a historic reputation for the pot raise it makes the opponents kind of unsettled when they come to pet co park yeah i mean as you kind of expect you're going to new york you play the Yankees okay i get that but you're getting that kind of environment in san diego against uh oh not quite an historic team in the pottery yeah no question and and you know look it's it's when they play like that with with that much enthusiasm and that much fire and that crowd gets going i mean look it's not always that way i i was at the game on saturday night and they were winning pretty handily and we had to tell people to get on their feet for the last out right still learning right but last night night before place was unreal all right one hour to go uh woods he's got his mock nba draft coming up as well as the riley report all ahead on saturday it goes number one sports station ninety seven three the fan all right thanks again to brat bone joining us in our last segment don't forget you can tune in every thursday at ten a.m that is a t5 hours from now for ninety seven three the fans commercial free pod phrase roundtable featuring venom woods any and else didn't win and chris presented by san diego roundtable pizza for takeout or delivery go to roundtable pizza dot com round table the last honest pizza steve cigar moto should have been here tomorrow he could have enjoyed plenty of free pizza we always have leftovers on thursday's at the roundtable yeah we don't actually get to eat it we just get to smell it and look at it any thoughts on the question that i posed in the last hour that's going to be a roundtable question what if any contract extension offer do you make to keep jerks and pro far in a padre's uniform i saw 20 years two and a half billion dollars in the youtube chat so probably may not not your money still yeah money i don't know if they have any money i love that eric cosmos by the way is tweeting it's time to start extending pro far yeah it'd be great if we didn't have to pay you thirteen million dollars to podcast jesus christ almighty really give him your thirteen we could keep it it's done we really use that done deal god one year eric cosmos thirteen million dollars is they should not do you're in pro far until that twenty five that's like robbing a bank and then just going out years later constantly posting about how you robbed a bank yeah it's insane let me just lay low so i'm talking about it yeah just stop tweeting you want to cover eventually basically go cover other teams that aren't paying you right now we got it here man god bless drove me nuts time to start talking about extending jerks pervert you took all of our money and you don't play took all of it i guess the real dilemma here is that the padre's do have financial constraints they're real we've they've been dealing with them all year long and you don't want to overpay for jerks and pro far and then if you're jerks and pro far but you're like bro you should be paying thirty million i'm putting up twenty million dollar a year i mean i saw the um the mid-season espn's like mvp is top i think it's seventh in the mvp balloting basically at the middle of the year that's a twenty to twenty five million dollar guy so of course he's gonna want his money but what are jerks in's alternatives go play another season for the Rockies right he doesn't want to go anywhere and the padre's also know this so they kind of both have each other over the barrel jerks in can't leave but the padre's can't let jerks in leave either so where where do you end up financially when those are your those are kind of your parameters going into any negotiation again man there's such a mutual there's such a mutual thing here between the two yeah i i cannot in good conscience get on here and say the jerks and pro far should give san diego a hometown discount or anything like that no jerks pro far should get his money he's got a family he's freaking earned it and is earning it every single night let's say the scenario of two years ago presents itself again right for you could stick around for seven million or you get eight from somewhere else you stay for seven you stay for seven stay for seven just like we're not moving the Cincinnati for a little bit more than we're making now we're just not it's just not going to happen you know they they know that too so there is a bit of a san diego discount it's it's it's more of like i'm i'm play really well here it's not even a san diego discount it's it's just i play well here i fit in i'm a best fit it's a best fit for me personally for my family like i don't he doesn't want to he doesn't but he needs to if there is an extension offer maybe he needs to feel that it is fair and not well look what happened the last time you went for the box you you were miserable it's got to feel like you know what yeah this is this is good for all parties spencer wants to know are there constraints once the cbt resets if they don't go over it this year well we don't know we don't know we do know we do know that the uh the you know the debt service thing that mld was pressuring the padre's on it is real so there is some constraints there they can go over the cbt next year without quite as many financial and draft penalties but then you start you know they start accruing again if you do it so it's never something you can't think about even the Mets even though they go over it all the time they still have to think about where their level is at and what the penalties are because there's draft there's international signing penalties you know they want to go after roki sisaki they want every dollar available to do that and you can't be going over the cbt if you want the ability to do that is roki sisaki a huge sensation steve sugomoto in japan is that is that i heard he's been hurt the last couple of starts but i i would like to see him in a padre's uniform next year he's a he's a household name for sure not in a dodger's uniform so um he's definitely someone to keep an eye on this off season all right we'll get back to the padre's jerks and talking to second right now poly's got some headlines with our round of report and get things started here with our addition today's edition of the rindel report now tuned to the mother greatest

nicks uh gm aj preller sending five first round draft picks to the nets you know for mccall bridges which good i mean he's not he's average 26 points a game i would buy i wouldn't call him a five first round draft picks super star by any stretch of the imagination but hey the nicks got close last year and they think this can get us closer so let's mortgage everything yeah and bring in another villain over player remember they had the three Villanova players now they have four Villanova players wow Villanova east in new york city now where's Villanova Villanova Villanova yeah that's right

as well that is unreal man unreal yeah that sounds terrible as most really does it sound terrible does one not this now i'm glad we have uh steve cigar moto here steve what is your flight what does it look like you fly out of la x to tokyo i usually go sannego san francisco first and then to tokyo okay about how much total time in the air is that combined probably like 13 hours okay in the in the air all right it's actually not too bad but uh there's a new trend going around it's mostly uh men doing this and they are raw dogging on their flights i saw this this is the one of the worst things i've ever seen and it's maybe the toughest challenge a man could take you've heard of the iron man triathlon this is harder that's not what you may be thinking when you hear that term right uh because ben's eyes just lit up oh yeah raw talking uh mile high club a whole new meaning yeah yeah yeah okay so men are doing this on fairly long flights three hours six hours 17 hour flights across the world and this all started back in may when a 26 year old man from london uh posted about his decision to forgo any and all inflight entertainment inflight services no beverages no snacks no meals all he did was stare at the flight radar map on the seat in front of him he raw dogged the flight i could do that i think i could i could just stare at the map the entire time and watch it as it slowly progresses from no water no batter on snacks and nothing i could do it you just sit there you're like ed gained i could do that i could do that there's no way i mean it wouldn't be fun but you know i'd miss the snacks but i i could get through it how how i could go here to d f w which is about a two and a half hour fly i could do it for two and a half i could sit now you can't sleep either now if you could let me sleep i'll raw dog you'd be here to bear stay awake stay awake and just stare i mean men are posting photos they are just sitting upright just staring right at the flight uh the flight radar on the seat back in front of them no nothing no magazine and they're just no phone playing blackjack on your phone nothing nothing no meals 14 hour flight to afghanistan yeah those military flights with no entertainment they're sitting like sideways in the back of the door by the way now the back of a cargo plane or something now that that sounds miserable the guy that went viral and kind of started this he said uh he calls raw dogging his flights in comparison to meditation visually you're kind of impaired you only get to look at the seat in front of you to your right or left if you're at the window all you hear is the drumming sound of the engine it's just white noise i'm gonna raw dog the rest of the show like the darkness retreat watch this i'm gonna raw dog the rest of this show oh no music we can't i mean i think you and i can continue to talk pauli and and woods is just going to focus in of buttery smooth sound of my voice for the next 45 minutes it's almost a meditative trance that he's in he'll be a better person for it at the end listening to my sultry sultry tones i i do think that i i don't know if i could do like all the way to asia but maybe across the country five hours staring at the map too much no way i think i can do it i no what are you really missing the food is terrible the entertainments usually terrible but no but you bring your own obviously you bring your own snacks you bring your own entertainment i download movies i listen to music oh there's new record i want to hear listen to that like yeah depends on how long the flight is i'll download a couple episodes of something or a movie or whatever people said i was making them very uncomfortable staring into the the camera at the uh at least i said earlier in the chat like people must have thought this guy was a terrorist it would just it would be so unsettling you're on an eight-hour flight and there's somebody just sitting there there's a sign staring there's a sign felt about this putty putty does it on the flight and it drives you laying insane she goes can i get you want a magazine he goes no she goes so you know you don't want like a you have a book or anything he goes no she's just gonna sit there he goes yeah i see i can't do this anymore bro hundred percent i would actually they break up because yes i would expect my wife to leave me if i raw dog we're going to why in july it's like six hours and two kids let us know how long you can go three minutes max there's no chance so freaking great so great remember we interviewed him during the pandemic that's right a Patrick Warburton Patrick Warburton wonder how he's doing let's check in with him for summer break we got better one summer vacation down soon yeah see what he's up to all right good job on the the ronda report uh if you want to join us we got a couple segments left eight three three two eight eight zero ninety seven three talk more pod raise baseball as they go for the sweep they do have the one sweep of the Oakland A's can they get a second sweep today over the washington nationals get the final matchup look ahead to that coming up next after a check of traffic on ninety seven three the fam wanted to uh offer a quick bit of thank you uh to our brave firefighters out there had a uh that flashback uh to wildfire season yesterday i was driving to work what happened well i was actually i was driving to work and uh i i felt like i wanted to get coffee so i ordered a coffee on the app and i got off at delmore heights yesterday and right there i mean the smoke was absolutely billowing uh the the wildfire that broke out right there in the uh the torrey pines auxiliary reserve right above torrey pines state beach near a ton of houses they had to evacuate they had um you know the the helicopters were flying around and the sirens were going all over the place and i was that eerie like it to everything turns yellow when you go into the smoke on a sunny day but then it's like clouds but it's not it's smoke that's blocking everything out and then poly told me that that it got um it got to the point where people were actually like flying their own personal drones around the fire to get shots of it but they are fearing with the aerial operations of the san diego fire crews that were trying to put it out yeah some idiots don't do this out there flying drones getting footage of the flames and you have firefighters you know the helicopters the planes that drop anything that they can to help put out this fire they can't do their job fully when there's drones flying around you are literally putting lives at risks and i believe you can be prosecuted if they find out that you were the one flying a drone it feels like something in a situation like something adam would make us do hey there's a fire in del mar can you get your drone we need the footage bro these guys are just just please can you can you make your way down there no please i'm begging you so big don't do this moment for anyone trying to fly drones interrupting with the firefighters you also had your own don't do this moment yesterday i mean i no good deed my friend goes unpunished you know i did the all venmo someone sixty nine dollars if the potteries win this game this was a couple nights ago and somebody you know people were dropping their venmos right and so somebody then took my twitter profile picture my name but they changed it a little bit to at the stevens woods very good created a venmo a darn show they didn't they didn't hack your van no my venmo was not they just made their venmo look as much like yours is possible no look like my twitter so it doesn't even my venmo picture is completely different than my twitter picture so they took my twitter took most you know my name and added an ass and then so i was getting dms from people going dude is this real do you need five dollars so they just went on your twitter where everybody's venmo handles correct and then they start seeing those venmo handles and started requesting and started requesting money from them five dollars so i call i had to call venmo support and talk to a Gus what do they fell on hard times yeah and i said hey i tweeted like don't worry about me i've got hundreds of dollars to my name i'm fine all right so don't send me five dollars i don't need it because of their quest of five dollars but then said they were giving 25 dollars for a sandwich very well done guys very very well done so i had to call venmo support he's like he goes it so it's not they didn't hack your venmo they're impersonating you and we will make sure that they don't do it again but i just got another one but i don't know if it came yesterday Fritz just sent me one it said Stephen's i am hungry now what Stephen Woods canceled a request for five dollars oh so they must have gone in and and fixed it so sorry about that everybody i won't be asking for anybody's venmo anymore and it was not me asking you for for five dollars i'm good i'm actually not to say that at some point it won't come to them correct yeah i've i've i've i've hit some parlays recently we've had some bonuses everything's good you know everything's good and financially uh here for for me but you know 15 years down the line if someone's going hey you remember that men in wood show you used to enjoy yeah i've hit some hard times any five dollars if you've been told me five bucks it might actually be you at that point it could be i mean i'm not gonna rule anything out i've always said i'm not gonna ask or my audience for anything you know i'm not listen if it's charity or something hey share it if you can't donate whatever but it's never gonna be to benefit me financially does that make sense like even when we sell a t-shirt that goes into the show fund like that's to buy stuff for the christmas show and everything else i'm not i'm not trying to profit i'm always very careful i didn't receive one of those requests but had i gotten one i would have said no yeah we know we know and had it come from you actually i also would have said no because i'm very careful about not sending any money i and it was weird i got to anyone i woke up this morning too and i had a uh i had a i woke up this morning the first text i saw was like some 903 number that said you know your car was like on the fast lane the the easy pass or something fast track the hov lanes and i woke up it was like three o'clock in the morning and i looked at my phone i go did i get in a wrong lane because i was driving like mad yesterday i was up to forest ranch a couple of times i'm like is there a there's not there's no toll road up there yeah no if you use the hov lane but i didn't but i did that can be a toll road as well okay but i did not do that so i knew this is a scam i did click on it just for a second too late and it said it said uh it was like for the bay area and i was like now this isn't they've already got you now whatever it's fine i'm gonna get much from someone's riding around california for free on your tab now fine by me whatever and don't send me any money please i don't need it at this point might someday all right let's take a final timeout when we come back we'll look ahead at the series finale today at petco park we got afternoon day baseball for you fireworks today couple of uh yeah it might be i mean there's no reason why there couldn't be we got a couple collars on the line as well stay there final segment of Ben & Woods on the way next on sandy it goes number one sports station 97-3 the fan interesting note here on jeremy astrada welcome back it's been a woods final segment here on a wednesday and clearly he is uh he's not the same pitcher who struck out 13 banners in a row earlier this season uh but kevin asi wrote in his newsletter this morning he's still 15 pounds down from when he developed the flu-like symptoms earlier this month june 11 right yeah he's uh he's resumed to eating semi regularly but still limited to just white rice and bread right now so you can't even keep protein down really he's he's available most nights he wants to give everything that he's got obviously he's been weakened by this illness that he's still kind of dealing with so if he's not quite the perfect setup man uh hopefully he'll be able to get back to that as he continues to get a little bit healthier just when moving on just when something starts going good they're like he's got a stomach eating virus it loses 15 how do i get it 15 pounds you don't want that kind of lot weight loss that's no he i i was just i was looking at uh the the thing he was talking about how gnarly it's kind of been and he said when he had code he goes it's nowhere close to what i had when i had code he almost died he almost died yeah and uh he spent two weeks in hospital he said yeah i've spent like four hours throwing up but i threw up for 24 hours when i had code but yeah i mean the velo was up last night commands a little shaky right now but man that's tough and uh and i think the run it was an inherited run with steven cola which was unearned because of the uh not a great play by louisa real louisa i said two yeah really bad plays when you're up by what was it five runs touch first before you try to get the double play if you don't get the double play fine you got an out get the sure out you're bro damn six inches away from a sure out take the sure out first ask poly my message to the tier one every Sunday is what collect outs get the out always take a sure out everyone everyone loves the double play who doesn't love a good dp collectin out this is a don't league make a play and then it's the ninth thing the game is literally over the ball is in his glove you beat the it's it's over it bounces out all of a sudden the tying run is coming to the plate after the cj abraham's single and i mean you had to have the thought like please lean thomas if you had a home run here and this game is now tied again it really would have been one of the most gut punching moments as a pod race fan i can even remember legit would have thought about calling in sick legit would have said i've been throwing up i mean obviously right walked it off in the bottom anyway clearly but i didn't need that kind of drama i had plenty of drama last night is a great this is a great quote man from from jeremy says my mindset is winners find a way to win i want to do what i can to help the team i've been doing my best it's been a bumpy road had a couple adding some pitches been hit some pitches have been left up in the zone yeah it's tough man he's he's trying to fight through it as is you know most of the guys on this team right now so again i tip my hat to uh a lot of these guys out there grinding through some injury and got a little nervous last night on the the miss the swinging the miss from manny and his second ab you know kind of had to stop down for a minute and end up staying in the game drawing a key walk later in the in the game too but yeah man they're they're pretty banged up so you know try to keep that in mind i guess before we go go ham on twitter about you know bad outing or bad swing or something i believe bryce johnson had the bunt single uh ahead of the jerks and pro far grandslam was that his first single since i joined the san diego pondress yeah is that his first big league hit no no he had he had a home run and oh he did yeah he played a few weeks in the big leagues for whatever his previous organization was so far i mean the potteries have won both the games that he'd been in the starting lineup but it does feel like you're kind of got more at bats that you're now giving away at the bottom of the order with tettistan at some point that's gonna hurt you right yeah and eggy i guess was was really working hard in the outfield yesterday he's got to get in there i mean if he's mashed his left-handed pitching you have another lefty on the bump today got to get eggy rosario samay bees um no question unquestionably needs to be in there today all right let's check traffic we got some collars in the line final minutes we'll look ahead to that matchup as well i'll come up here on 97 three the fam also didn't really talk about the uh the play where cj abrams who's having a big series got picked off essentially first base as he was just walking back to the bag very heads up though by hot sun cam and louisa rice did you see little rise like just very discreetly try to tell throw me the ball then i don't know how the umpire missed that call cj abram right away it was out is tag safe and instantly cj is basically walking back to the dog i like they're going to challenge this and i know i'm out so might as well skip the whole process here and get back to the dog it's right on top of the play uh there's another replay how did you miss how you miss out i think you took him by surprise yeah i didn't see what i'm ready he was oh say just like abrams wasn't ready the umpire also wasn't ready if you're davie martinez you are so massively frustrated by that didn't you got picked off twice didn't he uh in the series yeah i mean that was a more traditional pick off but i mean look it's it's it drives you nuts we've we've had our fair share of bad base running on the san diego pottery's this should be given away outs in a game like that just can't happen but eight three three two eight eight zero ninety seven three final minutes let's get a couple more callers in today after this uh this show jamey is calling us uh jamey good morning welcome to ninety seven three the fan good morning gentlemen how are you doing this is umpire jamey who's gone how did he miss that call how do you miss that call and perfect timing so i was calling about the the ejection but on that one quickly when you're at the field even in professional baseball sometimes guys are talking to you they'll say hey jamey or something you're kind of quick look and you're not expecting anything right there at that moment yeah i'm always chattering well i'm sure he's looking back heard the snap of the glove looks back and he's like oh snap it's okay you should really take out you cannot and and jamey i mean as an umpire you know you've got a 50-50 chance of getting it right you might as well guess jamey lives his whole life that way i didn't see it but there's a chance i go safe and he was safe and everyone's gone oh yeah i was a good cause close for the umpire got that right it's like i didn't see it at all but it's coin flip coin flip was it close didn't get away with that that was not close but the ejection the after the warning was issued i agree with bread food on this one once you issued that warning you have to eject them got to go because now you have she'll come out he gets ejected for arguing the fact you didn't do your job you said this is going to happen protecting my players when you usher that warning from umpire you're protecting the players because that could go on all day and guys can get hurt now if you throw them out and baby johnathan comes out and argues you can toss in because you did your job did your job so the umpires didn't misstep a little bit there they sure throw them out but you know there's a lot of pointy-thousand people screaming out you have an umpire whether you're right or wrong in every stadium once in a while you miss him his face though i i will say as as much as i loathed the call the panic on his face after it happened and he took his mask on the gores panic no no the umpires panic when it hit pro far he'd after the ejection he was white he was white as a ghost he was like and he kind of looked at one dugout kind of looked at the other when he's like oh god what do i do again i think he i think they said on the broadcast he was like he's like a philit from triple a like young dude and he's behind the dish and have had to make that call uh i did have one slight empathetic moment for him going oh my god what do you do i think the best course of action though and believe me i would not i swear to god if the roles were reversed i would say i would come in here today and say till and see he's had to go he had to go the umpire said there i swear on my mother i would tell you guys god i i know you're upset but he's gotta go i i would defend you with my heart that it wasn't intentional but i'd still agree a hundred percent but he does have to go a hundred percent after the warning it's it's it's and if you're i mean there was the guy in the fourth inning and you would have understood if it was a backfoot slider at like 83 and it bounced and hit him okay all right all right it's not a fast well it was a 98 mile an hour he threw it as hard as he could and it hit and it hit jerks in pro far it easily easily could have been targeted higher and he just yanked it a little bit too right you don't know you don't know i mean if i'm the pitcher i'm gonna certainly give the reaction like oops sorry i mean i didn't mean to do that no way maybe it was oops i meant to hit you in the back and i i yanked it a little bit and i hit you in the ankle instead yeah you and i think if you're a you know a veteran umpire or a rookie umpire that's filling in from triple a the best course of action is to do follow the rule that you just laid down you just laid it down nobody yeah Davey martina is gonna be mad as hell at you but it's such an easy thing to date you saw me i just warned you and them are you joking you're actually out here i don't care if it was intentional it hit him the letter of the law says he's got to go i made the letter of the law i made the law i have to follow it to the letter i he's got to go and i swear to god again if dylan c if it happened today i'd come in tomorrow and go look i get it you're pissed i'm pissed but they had just warned dylan c's he hit c j abrams he's got to go so i don't you know i don't i don't know if anything's gonna spill over today i don't think it will i mean honestly the nationals are fighting for their lives right now and the san diego potteries want to complete this sweep so i i think it's probably squashed at this point and i think the nationals if if i'm david martina's i almost say hey enough jesse kebert all you guys over like how many times can we wake this this giant right here let's not give them any extra motivation today they've already you know beaten us handily so let's just go out and try to walk ball game also dylan c's throws very very hard eight miles an hour yeah not that the other guy doesn't it's nine ninety one and ninety four so that's the match up today one ten first pitch twelve ten eco water so cal pre pre-game show d_j_ hers who is a left-hander third straight and you know potteries have gotten wins in the first two uh will take the mound for the washington nationals he is uh he has got a let's see array four and a half one and one four point five one point three three whip however uh looking at his last few starts now in colorado is last time out gave up a few runs gave up four uh three earn but the start before that against the marlins six innings one hit thirteen strike outs no walks so uh just a couple of starts ago he had an outstanding performance um two two runs allowed in four and a third against the braves the time before that so he struck out twenty six uh hitters in eighteen innings ben he's he's their number twelve prospect i believe he is a four pitch pitcher uh mostly fastball change up and a little bit of cutter a little bit of slider in there so uh tops out you know ninety three ninety four nothing again overpowering but um you'd you'd hope that the that that monkeys kind of off the the potteries back as far as left hander goes mckenzie or throw much harder and has much better stuff than this kid but you know we've seen guys like this flummox the san diego potteries all season so hopefully go out and complete that sweet man play with that fire that you had last night and let's let's no messing around and don't let these guys back in it today delancees of course uh has been scuffling lately now he showed signs of coming out of it in his last start and look good in the first i think i think the four innings and then in the fifth against the milwaukee brewers uh had that uh walk infield single infield single inning where they kind of just dunked it around on him and ended up knocking him out of the game with the uh the four run top of the fifth inning so he he hasn't been very efficient though and and obviously the potteries would love to see delancees go six or seven that'd be great it's been a while since we've seen that out of him so uh see if he can build on some of the good things and not not necessarily the bad things from his last start against the milwaukee brewers uh potteries did win that game though and uh will be going for the sweep uh this afternoon again at one ten first pitch yeah i mean heavily favored in this game you got your your uh a guy that that had the potential to be your ace at the beginning of the season and delancees matt walley's clearly the ace of the staff right now which nobody thought they would say but uh they absolutely he absolutely is and he's earned it many's pitches tail off so delan needs to go out and complete this thing today i wonder if uh if sullivan will get the start behind the play day game after the night game or if they'll try to go probably hagashioka against another lefty and squeeze one more day out of him going into an off-text he's left handed switch him or left hand he's definitely can hit from the left side um but maybe you get him out later in the game i'm not even sure but hagashioka i saw a stat yesterday his uh his isolated power like this month it's like fourth in baseball uh you know behind like guys like erin judge uh he has actually really been pounding the ball and you know gives you a dangerous weapon while he's hot there near the bottom of the lineup and with you know tatissa you need as many weapons as you can get and he's one of them who would have thought kyle hagashioka would have been mentioned as a weapon an offensive weapon for the sandy he has been this month guys have really stepped up so we want to keep that that train rolling right now so uh we'll be back tomorrow morning to to talk about it all uh four hours plus the extra hour for the round table tomorrow from uh ten to eleven looking forward to any else didn't come in up next they'll have their own takes of course annie was in the in the clubhouse after the game we played some of that sound that you got with jerks and pro-firm sure she has other observations and uh and annecdotes and and sound for you coming up in their potteries deep dive as well uh pretty much our entire four hours were on that game i'm imagining the next two and tell sammy's pre-game show will be more on last night's game and uh looking ahead to what they've got this afternoon that was a fun one today boy it was a good one yes i know a lot of people were anticipating this morning show i hope we lived up to everybody's uh expectations always makes me nervous when i see those oh can't wait for better oh god we'd better deliver we need nine more hours and something like oh no it was pretty easy to get up this morning it was very scary that's for sure uh steve sygomoto thank you for coming in keep the street going at the game this afternoon before you go to your rehab for paul rindall

granger with supplies and solutions for every industry granger has the right product for you call click granger dot com or just stop by Brett also the host of the Brett Boone podcast featuring the most notable names in mlb and around sports each week and and woods what makes great that baseball so great is you can take the same situation and everyone can have a different view on it yeah we had uh adam jones on earlier and he said he thought the umpires were correct not to eject mckenzie gore in that situation didn't think it was intentional why would he throw down at his feet but if i was following his uh twitter timeline correctly last night Brett boom thinks a little more like us that it was almost a mandatory ejection that didn't happen good morning Brett morning bank no it it not think like us we think like the correct side of the night exactly i'll tell you what adam jones i love you but at that point it's not about intent it's not about intent when when you're warned you're warned and you're a big picture and if it to be honest with you i looked at the pitch it didn't look like you meant to hit it look like he was about to win a billion dollars and they said the only thing you can't do is hit him any hit him that's that's the reaction that's my reaction but at that point this is the big link it doesn't matter you were warned seven seconds ago right you are not hit the man in question on top of it and you drill him so it doesn't matter in that particular situation it doesn't matter you're out of the game period whether you've met the drill or not doesn't matter it just warned you so that's that's my take on yeah i think it was ours too and and yeah listen i mean if rules or rules and you're going to hand out warnings i mean it's like you're Brett you're a dad i mean how does that go over don't do that you do it i am a father yeah and you you know i don't do that or you're gonna get in trouble and then they do it and you're like oh never mind i don't think you meant to do it it doesn't matter like the rules it doesn't it doesn't i'll pay it's like the back and forth with you know this game i played for so long it's like at a certain point you know hey uh he didn't mean to hit you well there's been three or four hit matters at that point it doesn't matter right whether he's meant to hit you we are going to square this up and and sometimes i was the one that was going to wear one and it's like i understand that picture doesn't want to hurt me there's not a personal thing between picture and and myself but it's just how we even the score it's like being out like being out in the wild you know it's like this is how nature takes care of things yeah well our nature in the big leagues this is how we take care of things and it's an eye for an eye always has been always will be it's a little bit different now because the umpires get more involved in it in a more swift sense but at the end of the day you're going to take care of business and and yesterday doesn't matter you you meant to drill and you didn't mean to drill but doesn't matter everything going on the last thing you do is drill that the person in question right here who's at the in the middle of all this with the first pitch of the game you're automatically gone it's not a question yeah i know you didn't mean hit him whatever i just told you not to hit him and you hit him you're a big leader you got to have better control yeah hundred percent hundred percent and and you know it's it's interesting now how the game has evolved a little bit now you know the potteries decided i think and i've been wrestling a lot with this bret because there's this thing that's happened in san diego and it's not only under mike shilt it was under Andy green it was under jace tingler it was under bob melvin and it's now kind of under mike shilt as well um where there's been a lot of up and in a lot of guys drilled not a lot of you know retaliation you know you say i for an i it always has been always will be you know i think the potteries looked at last night and said we got to win this baseball game first and foremost now doesn't mean something can't happen today or or won't happen today doesn't mean it won't happen in washington um but i think you know at some point mike shilt he has talked about having a long memory i have i've filed things away but you know i don't know man like did you think maybe major should have should have gone up in it not up in it or thrown at somebody's hip last night or something i think you you hit it on the head our job as big lead players is to win the game at all costs now if one of my teammates has been wronged and he thinks he's wrong um we will take care of business but you got to pick the right time yeah right place you win the game at all costs nothing interferes with that the W's and the L's it might be something here's here's my experience i don't i don't recall at all the managers i played for and i played for a lot of great managers the manager ever coming to a pitcher and say i want somebody going down yep never remember that i remember a bullpen uh that a veteran bullpen they that those are the guys that usually handle that it's not a discussion i never had a pitcher come up to me and say booney i'm going to take care of this for you uh it was uh it would just take care of itself those guys in the bullpen they're down there for a reason they're crazy people and they have they don't have a lot to do during the game and they and they throw coins and they you know they have a good time out there playing nice and that's what they do they watch they watch every game they watch their players they watch their team they've got their back i played in it where i had a bullpen with a norm charlton in it and it's jeff nelson and an arthur rose and they didn't tell me when they were going to drill somebody but you knew just using common sense if something went down in a game uh those guys were going to handle it once again right time right place and it was unspoken it was a nod it was uh you know if somebody would drill somebody they kind of give me a look at second base give me a wink like we got your back and it was never discussed that's how i was brought up that's how it always uh was going down but you're right would you when you say you've got to win the game absolutely you win the game at all costs you never jeopardize winning a game to to get even with an opponent it could be it might be next year in spring training on a backfield in a B game where somebody wears one and and they kind of look at him like yeah that was for last year right yeah okay now we're square yeah and we move on and we play the game but it will be taken care of somewhere i got a question for you bony so as a veteran talking about policing the game and doing it the old school right way uh you know and it will be taken care of is does that ever actually have any effect it's not like it's going to stop people from throwing inside other guys are going to get hit or is it just the emotional satisfaction that kind of a team needs to move on it's the closure that allows you to kind of move on and then get your your business done get your job done because someone on your team has taken care of it it is it's the closure it's weird like i said it's like being out in the wilderness this is how things rectify themselves um i remember uh i i got a great quip i'll keep it as quick as i can i'm in philadelphia and this is in the mid-90s a teammate of mine was mark portugal great picture for the use and afters came over the reds for a while well he was pitching for philly and we were in town and we've been teammates a few years ago we're in a blowout game it's like nine to one and the sixth i get to first base i'm in law law land i'm not even thinking about it nobody's holding me on i steal second without even thinking about the the the situation of the game i think frank kona's manager's looking at me like booney what are you doing larry bow is yelling at me and i'm going i felt like i wanted to crawl into a hole because i'm like i didn't mean to do that what am i doing i know better than this you know in all of sick it is oh no rain delay okay we finish the game i i go over during the rain delay i'm not in the door i see terry i say i just want to apologize man i said that is the last thing i was he was yeah booney some people have pissed up in the billy i said and they should be i just want to let you know it was like i i would blacked out i didn't mean to steal i'm not trying to he knew you know by by my sincerity so portugal's pitching the next day and he calls me and we go out and have a pop after the game and he goes booney do you realize the position you've put me in i said i do porch i said dude just don't hit me in the head he's he called me he called me in the middle then i see i can't sleep he goes because i have to drill you tomorrow and i said and i'm ready for it just that hit me in the ass or something but sorry wherever that's even been says ass and then here's the thing the next day we got rained out never had to face portugal and i don't think filly ever got even with me but that's how deep it goes it was a buddy of mine a guy i respected uh we went to battle many times but that situation even though he was convinced he knew i meant nothing by it he knew it was just a complete uh just miscalculation on my point he knew i didn't mean to show anybody up he my good buddy had to drill me that's the way the game is that is such a fantastic story they're losing sleep about it at night going he's what i want to do this jeez it was just so awkward you don't mind necessarily getting hit if you don't know it's coming if you know it's correct oh my god oh my god oh my god you're like standing there i gotta protect you got to protect that elbow bone and that wrist those ones that really hurt when it hits like just and you're trying to make sure it hits you in the flesh but usually when you do that it hits you like right on the tip of the elbow oh yeah yeah uh brings you to your knees unbelievable that's great that's man talking to Brad Boone here on uh Ben & Woods this morning so i yeah i look the way that they're playing right now that that came last night when they got down you know you could it certainly sucked the air out of me when they took the lead and they gave it right back but when they got it back at that point Donovan Slano gets that gets that knock and next thing you know potteries are rolling cruising the victory the grand slam for pro far was electric i mean the place the booney like i've been talking about this for a couple of weeks these guys they they expend a lot of energy to be you know a couple of games over 500 a couple of games below 500 can this can this last i mean you can't play every game at this frenetic pace i mean at some point a nine to one blowout either way it's going to be probably welcome for these guys but it has just been hair on fire for the last couple weeks for this team it's been awesome to watch two nights ago you know when they come back it was or were they down two down three three come back and win that game uh was big enough then it yesterday was like a movie i mean pro far is getting screamed at bench is kind of semi-clear you know push it shove machado has words with the catcher yeah seems to be like the the adult talking as a young the youngster uh we get it sorted out pro far gets drilled smiles goes to first machado it's the first pitch out okay that's storybook but come on pro far hits a grand slam unreal it's like you're just adding to it i think this team is good i think they've always been good it's just been a puzzling team to not only me probably you and the city of san diego yep with all the talent they've had to play as average in i'd look at the i'd look at the the national league you know i think there's two elite teams i think there's philly and then there's la i think it'll land in mil walkier in that second tier and then everybody else is is right there today if the if the season end of the potters are in the playoffs okay that's great but i think they've really underachieved as a roster if i look at the talent position by position i think they've underachieved uh uh as a roster now you darvish she had a setback elbow went out for the hamstring now he's got an elbow must grow uh wait and see on him those two are going to be really pivotal i mean you've got to have those guys in your rotation but the bullpen's been okay and the guy at the answer is man i'm watching this guy it's like this guy you talk about a botista and uh with the oriles a year ago uh you talk about clossa and cleveland this kid swarez is about as as the game's over as it is and he's just pumping heaters and it's like here see if you can hit it and they can't he's been unbelievable i think 19 out of 20 or 20 out of 21 so they've got the pieces in place i still think they got to go out and look for some pitching i really do but this this uh nationally is so vulnerable this year and and really be exciting to see what's happened at pet co part jackson mary actually said that an opponent came up to him and said this is a ridiculous atmosphere it is so electric at pet co park and well you know it wasn't always that way but it's become a pretty special place uh to play to watch a game and it's it's a whole lot of fun no i've been to two games this year and it's been like that that electricity and i'm sure right now it's rocking a lot more than those two games i went to uh and it was electric then so you know i've been to a few venues in my life safe code field at you know now t-mobile in seattle during the early 2000s it was unbelievable anytime i'd go to new york especially in the post-season yankie stadium that's a different level i think right now what you're seeing in philadelphia i mean that place is electric but i'm telling you pet goes moving up the pecking order i think pet goes in that conversation for most electric venues right now and it's pretty awesome to watch especially because i'm so close to it being in san diego appreciate it bony as always take care have a good week thanks buddy you got it guys that was honestly mlb in center brett bone insider calls are presented by granger with supplies and solutions for every industry granger has the right product for you call click granger dot com or just stop by and we were talking about that earlier that maybe it kind of makes supposing teams get a little i don't know flustards the word but certainly they're not used to the kind of environment they've been playing in and uh north county doc tweeted in and said yeah i think you've hit it number one park in america greatest city greatest state creates one of the greatest environments but juxtaposed against the lack of a historic reputation for the potteries it makes the opponents kind of unsettled when they come to petko park yeah i mean as you kind of expect you're going to new york you play the Yankees okay i get that but you're getting that kind of environment in san diego against uh oh not quite an historic team in the potteries yeah no question and and you know look it's it's when they play like that with with that much enthusiasm and that much fire and that crowd gets going i mean look it's not always that way i i was at the game on saturday night and they were winning pretty handily and we had to tell people to get on their feet for the last out right still learning right but last night night before place was unreal all right one hour to go uh woods he's got his mock n_b_a_ draft coming up as well as the riley report all ahead on saturday it goes number one sports station ninety seven three the fan all thanks again to brat bone joining us in our last segment don't forget you can tune in every thursday at ten a.m that is a t five hours from now for ninety seven three the fans commercial free pod phrase roundtable featuring venom woods any and else didn't win and chris presented by san diego roundtable pizza for takeout or delivery go to roundtable pizza dot com roundtable the last honest pizza steve segomoto should have been here tomorrow he could have enjoyed plenty of free pizza we always have leftovers on thursday's at the roundtable yeah we don't actually get to eat it we just get to smell it and look at it any thoughts on the question that i posed in the last hour that's gonna be a roundtable question what if any contract extension offer do you make to keep jerks and pro far in apadre's uniform it's a twenty years two and a half billion dollars in the youtube chat so probably may not not your money so yeah money so if they have any money i love that eric cosmos by the way is tweeting it's time to start extending pro far yeah it'd be great if we'd have to pay you thirteen million dollars to podcast jesus christ almighty really give him your thirteenth we could keep it it's done really use that done deal god one year eric cosmos thirteen million dollars is they should not deter us in pro far in twenty twenty five that's like robbing a bank and then just going out years later but constantly posting about how you robbed a bank yeah it's insane let me just lay low stop talking about it yeah just stop tweeting it you want to cover eventually basically go cover other teams that aren't paying you right now we got it here man god bless drove me nuts time to start talking about extending jerks pervert you took all of our money and you don't play took all of it i guess the real dilemma here is that the padre's do have financial constraints they're real we've they've been dealing with them all year long and you don't want to overpay for jerks and pro far and then if you're jerks and pro far but you're like bro you should be paying 30 i'm putting up 20 million dollars a year i mean i saw the the mid-season espn's like mvp is top i think it's seventh in the mvp balloting basically at the middle of the year that's a twenty to twenty five million dollar guy so of course he's gonna want his money but what are jerks and alternatives go play another season for the rockies right he doesn't want to go anywhere and the padre's also know this so they kind of both have each other over the barrel jerks and can't leave but the padre's can't let jerks and leave either so where where do you end up financially when those are your those are kind of your parameters going into any negotiation again man there's such a mutual there's such a mutual thing here between the two yeah i i cannot in good conscience get on here and say the jerks and pro far should give san diego a hometown discount or anything like that no jerks and pro far should get his money he's got a family he's freaking earned it and he's earning it every single night let's say the scenario of a lot two years ago presents itself again right for you could stick around for seven million or you get eight from somewhere else you stay for seven stay for seven just like we're not moving the Cincinnati for a little bit more than we're making now we're just not it's just not going to happen you know they they know that too so there is a bit of a San Diego discount it's it's it's more of like i'm i'm play really well here it's not even a San Diego discount it's it's just i play well here i fit in i'm a best fit it's a best fit for me personally for my family like i don't he doesn't want to he doesn't but he needs to if there is an extension offer maybe he needs to feel that it is fair and not well look what happened the last time you went for the box you you were miserable it's got to feel like you know what yeah this is this is good for all parties Spencer wants to know are there constraints once the CBT resets if they don't go over it this year well we don't know we don't know we do know we do know that the the you know the debt service thing that mlb was pressuring the padre's on it is real so there is some constraints there they can go over the CBT next year without quite as many financial and draft penalties but then you start you know they start accruing again if you do it so it's never something you can't think about even the Mets even though they go over it all the time they still have to think about where their level is at and what the penalties are because there's draft there's international signing penalties you know they want to go after roki sisaki they want every dollar available to do that and you can't be going over the CBT if you want the ability to do that is a roki sisaki a huge sensation Steve Sugamoto in Japan is that is that I heard he's been hurt the last couple of starts but I would like to see him in a padre's uniform next year he's a he's a household name for sure not in a doctor's uniform so he's definitely someone to keep an eye on this offseason all right we'll get back to the padre's jerks and talking to second right now Paul he's got some headlines with our round of report and get things started here with our addition today's

bridges to the new york nicks so he doesn't have to go too far the nicks uh gm aj preller sending five first round draft picks to the nets you know for mccell bridges it's good i mean it's not he's average 26 points a game i would buy i wouldn't call him a five first round draft picks super star by any stretch of the imagination but hey the nicks got close last year and they think this can get us closer so let's mortgage everything yeah and bring in another villain over player remember they had the three villainova players now they have four villainova players wow it's villainova uh east in

knocks we'll do the end season hard knocks as well that is unreal man unreal yeah that sounds terrible as most really does a terrible dust when uh this now i'm glad we have uh steve sygomoto here steve what is your flight what does it look like you fly out of la x to tokyo i usually go standing goes to san francisco first and then to tokyo okay about how much total time in the air is that combined probably like 13 hours okay in the in the air all right it's actually not too bad but uh there's a new trend going around it's mostly uh men doing this and they are raw dogging on their flights i saw this this is the one of the worst things i've ever seen and it's maybe the toughest challenge a man can take you've heard of the iron man triathlon this is harder that's not what you may be thinking when you hear that term right uh because ben's eyes just lit up oh yeah this is three hours six hours 17 hour flights across the world and this all started back in may when a 26 year old man from london uh posted about his decision to forgo any and all inflight entertainment inflight services no beverages no snacks no meals all he did was stare at the flight radar map on the seat in front of him he raw dogged the flight i could do that i think i could i could just stare at the map the entire time and watch it as it slowly progresses from no water no batter of snacks and nothing i could do it you just sit there you are like ed gained serial killer i could do that there's no way i mean it wouldn't be fun but you know i'd miss the snacks but i i could get through it how how i could go here to dfw which is about a two and a half hour fly i could do it for two and a half i could sit now you can't sleep either now if you could let me sleep i'll raw dog you'd be from here to the air stay awake stay awake and just stare and these men are posting photos and they are just sitting upright just staring right at the flight uh the flight radar on the seat back in front of them no nothing no magazine and they're just no phone playing blackjack on your phone nothing now these two didn't do it on a 14 hour flight to afghanistan yeah those military flights with no entertainment they're sitting like sideways in the back of the door by the way now the back of a cargo plane or something now that that sounds miserable and the guy that went viral and kind of started this he said uh he calls raw dogging his flights compared to meditation visually you're kind of impaired you only get to look at the seat in front of you to your right or left if you're at the window all you hear is the drumming sound of the engine it's just white noise i'm going to raw dog the rest of the show like the darkness retreat watch this i'm going to raw dog the rest of this show oh no music we can't i mean i think you and i can continue to talk poly and and woods is just going to focus in of a buttery smooth sound of my voice for the next 45 minutes it's almost a meditative trance that he's in he'll be a better person for it at the end listening to my sultry sultry tones i i do think that i i don't know if i could do like all the way to asia but maybe across the country five hours staring at the map it's too much no way i think i can do it no what are you really missing the food is terrible the entertainment's usually terrible but but you bring your own obviously you bring your own snacks you bring your own entertainment i download movies i listen to music oh there's new record i want to hear listen to that like yeah depends on how long the flight is i'll download a couple episodes of something or a movie whatever people said i was making them very uncomfortable staring into the the camera uh at least i said earlier in the chat like people must have thought this guy was a terrorist it would just it would be so unsettling you're on an eight-hour flight and there's somebody just sitting there there's a sign staring there's a sign felt about this putty putty does it on the flight and it drives the land insane she goes can i get you want a magazine he goes no she goes so you know you don't want like a you have a book or anything he goes no so you're just gonna sit there he goes yeah i see i can't do this anymore bro hundred percent i would actually make break up because yes i would expect my wife to leave me if i raw dog we're going to why in july it's like six hours and two kids let us know how long you can go three minutes max there's no chance so freaking great so great remember we interviewed him during the pandemic that's right a Patrick Warburton Patrick Warburton wonder how he's doing let's check in with him for summer break we got better one summer vacation down soon yeah see what he's up to all right good job on the the ronda report uh if you want to join us we got a couple segments left eight three three two eight eight zero ninety seven three talk more padre's baseball as they go for the sweep they do have the one sweep of the oakland a's can they get a second sweep today over the washington nationals get the final matchup look ahead to that coming up next after a check of traffic on ninety seven three the fam wanted to uh offer a quick bit of thank you uh to our brave firefighters out there had a uh that flashback uh to wildfire season yesterday i was driving to work what happened i was actually i was driving to work and uh i i felt like i wanted to get coffee so i ordered a coffee on the app and i got off at delmore heights yesterday and right there i mean the smoke was absolutely billowing uh the the wildfire that broke out right there in the uh the torrey pines auxiliary reserve right above torrey pines state beach near a ton of houses they had to evacuate they had um you know the the helicopters were flying around and the sirens were going all over the place and i was that eerie like it to everything turns yellow when you go into the smoke on a sunny day but then it's like clouds but it's not it's smoke that's blocking everything out and then poly told me that that it got um it got to the point where people were actually like flying their own personal drones around the fire to get shots of it but they are fearing with the aerial operations of the san diego fire crews that we're trying to put it out yeah some idiots don't do this flying drones get in footage of the flames and you have firefighters you know the helicopters the planes that drop anything that they can to help put out this fire they can't do their job fully when there's drones flying around you are literally putting lives at risks and i believe you can be prosecuted if they find out that you were the one flying a drone feels like something in a situation like something Adam would make us do hey there's a fire in del mar can you get your drone we need the footage bro these guys are just just please can you can you make your way down there no please i'm begging you so big don't do this moment for anyone trying to fly drones interrupting with the firefighters you also had your own don't do this moment yesterday i mean i no good deed my friend goes unpunished you know i did the all venmo someone sixty nine dollars if the potteries win this game this was a couple nights ago and somebody you know people were dropping their venmos right and so somebody then took my twitter profile picture my name but they changed it a little bit to at the stevens woods very good created a venmo a darn show they didn't they didn't hack your venmo no my venmo was not they just made their venmo look as much like yours is my no look like my twitter so it doesn't even my venmo picture is completely different than my twitter picture so they took my twitter so most you know my name and added an ass and then so i was getting dms from people going dude is this real do you need five dollars so they just went on your twitter where everybody's venmo handles correct and then they start seeing those venmo handles and started requesting requesting money from them five dollars so i call i had to call venmo support and talk to a gust what do they fell on hard times yeah and i said hey i tweeted like don't worry about me i've got hundreds of dollars to my name i'm fine all right so don't send me five dollars i don't need it because of their quest of five dollars but then said they were giving a twenty five dollars for a sandwich yes very well done guys very very well done um so i had to call venmo support he's like he goes it so it's not they didn't hack your venmo they're impersonating you and we will make sure that they don't do it again but i just got another one but i don't know if it came yesterday uh fritz just sent me one it said stevens i am hungry now what steven woods canceled a request for five dollars oh so they must have gone in and and fixed it so sorry about that everybody i won't be asking for anybody's venmo anymore and um it was not me asking you for for five dollars i'm good i'm actually not to say that at some point it won't come to them correct yeah i i've i've i've i've hit some parlays recently we've had some bonuses everything's good you know everything's good and financially uh here for for for me but you know 15 years down the line if someone's going hey you remember that men in wood show you used to enjoy yeah i've hit some hard times any five dollars if you've been me five bucks it might actually be you at that point it could be i mean i'm not gonna rule anything out i've always said i'm not gonna ask or my audience for anything you know i'm not it listen if it's charity or something hey share it if you can't donate whatever but it's never gonna be to benefit me financially does that make sense like even when we'd sell a t-shirt that goes into the show fund like that's to buy stuff for the christmas show and everything else i'm not i'm not trying to profit i'm always very careful i didn't receive one of those requests but had i gotten one i would have said no yeah we know we know and had it come from you actually i also would have said no because i'm very careful about not sending any money i and it was weird i got anyone i woke up this morning too and i had a uh i had a i woke up this morning the first text i saw was like some nine oh three number that said you know your car was like on the fast lane the the easy pass or something fast track the h o v lanes and i woke up it was like three o'clock in the morning and i looked at my phone i go did i get in a wrong lane because i was driving like mad yesterday i was up to forest ranch a couple of times i'm like is there a there's not there's no toll road up there yeah no if you use the h o v lane but i did that can be a toll road as well okay but i did not do that so i knew this is a scam i did click on it just for a second too late and it said it said uh it was like for the bay area and i was like now this isn't they've already got you now whatever it's fine i'm gonna get much from someone's riding around california for free on your tab now find on me whatever and uh don't send me any money please i don't need it at this point tonight someday all right let's take a final time out when we come back we'll look ahead at the uh series finale today at petco park we got afternoon day baseball four yeah fireworks today couple of uh yeah it might be i mean there's no reason why there couldn't be we get a couple collars online as well stay there final segment of benewoods on the way next on san diego's number one sports station 97 three the fam interesting note here on jeremy astrada welcome back it's been a woods final segment here on a wednesday and clearly he is uh he's not the same pitcher who struck out 13 banners in a row earlier this season uh but kevin asi wrote in his newsletter this morning he's still 15 pounds down from when he developed the flu-like symptoms earlier this month june 11 right yeah he's uh he's resumed to eating semi regularly but still limited to just white rice and bread right now so you can't even keep protein down really he's available most nights he wants to give everything that he's got obviously he's been weakened by this illness that he's still kind of dealing with so if he's not quite the perfect setup man uh hopefully he'll be able to get back to that as he continues to get a little bit healthier just when moving on just when something starts going good they're like he's got a stomach eating virus it loses 15 how do i get it 15 pounds you don't want that kind of weight loss that's no yeah i i i was just i was looking at uh the the thing he was talking about how uh gnarly it's kind of been and he said when he had code he goes it's nowhere close to what i had when i had code well he almost died he almost died yeah and uh he spent two weeks in hospital he said yeah i've spent like four hours throwing up but i threw up for 24 hours when i had code yeah i mean the velo was up last night commands a little shaky right now but man that's tough and uh and i think the run it was an inherited run with steven cola which was unearned because of the uh not a great play by louisa real louisa i said two yeah really bad plays when you're up by what was it five runs touch first before you try to get the double play if you don't get the double play fine you got an out get the sure out you're bro you have six inches away from a sure out take the sure out first ask poly my message to the tier one every Sunday is what collect out just get the out always take a sure out everyone everyone loves the double play who doesn't love a good dp collectin out this is adult league make a play and then as the ninth thing the game is literally over the ball is in his glove you beat the it's it's over it bounces out all of a sudden the tying run is coming to the plate after the cj Abram single and i mean you had to have the thought like of these lean thomas if you had a homerun here and this game is now tied again it really would have been one of the most gut punching moments as a pod race fan i can even remember legit would have thought about calling in sick legit would have said i've been throwing up i mean obviously jennison would have walked it off in the bottom yeah clearly but i didn't need that kind of drama i had plenty of drama last night is a great this is a great quote man from from jeremy says my mindset is winners find a way to win i want to do what i can to help the team i've been doing my best it's been a bumpy road had a couple adding some pitches been hit some pitches have been left up in the zone yeah it's tough man he's he's trying to fight through it as is you know most of the guys on this team right now so again i tip my hat to a lot of these guys out there grinding through some injury and got a little nervous last night on the the miss the swing in the miss from manny in his second a b you know kind of had to stop down for a minute end up staying in the game drawing a key walk later in the in the game too but yeah man they're they're pretty banged up so you know try to keep that in mind i guess before we go go ham on twitter about you know bad outing or bad swing or something uh i believe bryce johnson had the bunt single uh ahead of the jerks and pro far grandslam was that his first single since i joined the san diego pondris yeah is that his first big league hit no no he had he had a home run and oh he did yeah he played a few weeks in the big leagues for whatever his previous organization was so far i mean the potteries have won both the games that he'd been in the starting lineup but it does feel like you're kind of got more at bats that you're now giving away at the bottom of the order with tetties gone at some point that's going to hurt you right yeah and and eggy i guess was was really working hard in the outfield yesterday he's got to get in there i mean if he's mashed his left-handed pitching you have another lefty on the bump today got to get eggy rosario some a b's um no question unquestionably needs to be in there today all right let's check traffic we've got some collars in the line final minutes we'll look ahead to that matchup as well i'll come up here at ninety seven three the fam also didn't really talk about the uh the play where c_j abrams who's having a big series got picked off essentially first base as he was just walking back to the bag very heads up though by hot sun cam and louisa rice did you see little rise like just very discreetly try to tell throw me the ball then i don't know how the umpire missed that call c_j abram right away it was out his tag safe and instantly c_j is basically walking back to the dog i like they're going to challenge this and i know i'm out so might as well skip the whole process here and get back to the dugout it's right on top of the play i think there's another replay how did you miss how did you miss out i think you took a much surprise i didn't see what ready he was oh say just like abrams wasn't ready the umpire also wasn't ready if you're david martinez you are so massively frustrated by that didn't he got picked off twice didn't he uh in the series yeah i mean that was a more traditional pickup but i mean look it's it's it drives you nuts that we've we've had our fair share of bad base running on the san diego potteries that should be given away ounce in a game like that just can't happen but uh eight three three two eight eight zero ninety seven three final minutes let's get a couple more collars in today after this uh this show jamie is calling us uh jamie good morning welcome to ninety seven three the fan good morning gentlemen how you doing this is umpire jimmy how did he miss that call how did he miss that call and perfect timing so i was calling about the ejection but on that one quickly when you're at the field even in professional baseball sometimes guys are talking to you they'll say hey jamie or something you're trying to quick look and you're not expecting anything right there at that moment yeah i'm always chattering looking back here's a snap of the glove looks back and he's like oh snap it's okay you show radio and hang out you cannot and and jamie i mean as an umpire you know you've got a 50-50 chance of getting it right you might as well guess jamie lives his whole life that way i didn't see it but there's a chance i go safe and he was safe and everyone's going oh yeah i was a good coach close but the umpire got that right it's like i didn't see it at all but it's coin flip yeah it was close didn't get away with that that was not close but the ejection the after the warning was issued i agree with red food on this one once you issued that warning you have to eject them got to go because now you have she'll come out he gets ejected for arguing the fact you didn't do your job you said this is going to happen protecting my players when you usher that warning from umpire you're protecting the players because that can go on all day it doesn't get hurt now if you throw them out and baby johnathan comes out and argues you can toss in because you did your job the enduro so the umpires didn't misstep a little bit there they should have thrown them out but you know there's a lot pointy thousand people screaming out you have an umpire whether you're right or wrong in every stadium once in a while you miss him his face though i i will say as as much as i loathed the call the panic on his face after it happened and he took his mask kenzie gores panic no no the umpires panic when it hit pro far he after the ejection he was white he was white as a ghost he was like and he kind of looked at one dugout kind of looked at the other when he's like oh god what do i do again i think he i think they said on the broadcast he was like he's like a philip from triple a like young dude and he's behind the dish and have had to make that call uh i did have one slight empathetic moment for him going oh my god what do you do i think the best course of action though and believe me i would not i swear to god if the roles were reversed i would say i would come in here today and say Dylan sees how to go he had to go the umpire said there i swear on my mother i would tell you guys god i know you're upset but he's got to go i i would defend you with my heart that it wasn't intentional but i'd still agree a hundred percent but he does have to go a hundred percent after the warning it's it's it's and if you're i mean it buzzed the guy in the fourth inning and you would have understood if it was a bad foot slider at like 83 and it bounced and hit him okay all right all right it's not a fast well it was a 98 mile an hour he threw it as hard as he could and it hit and it hit jerks in pro far it easily easily could have been targeted higher and he just yanked it a little bit too right you don't know you don't know i mean if i'm the pitcher i'm going to certainly give the reaction like oops sorry i mean it didn't mean to do that maybe it was oops i meant to hit you in the back and i i yanked it a little bit and i hit you in the ankle instead yeah you and i think if you're a you know a veteran umpire or a rookie umpire that's filling in from triple a the best course of action is to do follow the rule that you just laid down you just laid it down nobody yeah devi martina is going to be mad as hell at you but it's such an easy thing to say date you saw me i just warned you and them are you joking you're actually out here i don't care if it was intentional it hit him the letter of the law says he's got to go i made the letter of the law i made the law i have to follow it to letter he's got to go and i swear to god again if dylan see if it happened today i'd come in tomorrow and go look i get it you're pissed i'm pissed but they had just worn dylan sees he hits cj abrams he's got to go so i don't you know i don't i don't know if anything's going to spill over today i don't think it will i mean honestly the nationals are fighting for their lives right now and the san diego pottery is one to complete this sweep so i i think it's probably squashed at this point and i think the nationals if if i'm devi martina's i almost say hey enough jesse kebert all you guys over like how many times can we wake this this giant right here let's not give them any extra motivation today they've already you know beaten us handily so let's just go out and try to walk ball game also dylan sees throws very very hard eight miles an hour yeah not that the other guy doesn't it's nine ninety one and ninety four so that's the match up today uh one ten first pitch twelve ten eco water so cal pre pregame show dj hers who is a left-hander third straight and you know potteries have gotten wins in the first two uh will take the mound for the washington nationals he is he has got a what's his year a four and a half one and one four point five one point three three whip however uh looking at his last few starts now in colorado his last time out gave up a few runs gave up four uh three earn but the start before that against the marlins six innings one hit thirteen strikeouts no walks so uh just a couple of starts ago he had an outstanding performance um two two runs allowed in four and a third against the braves the time before that so he's struck out twenty six uh hitters in eighteen innings Ben he's he's their number 12 prospect i believe he is a four pitch pitcher uh mostly fastball change up and a little bit of cutter a little bit of slider in there so uh tops out you know ninety three ninety four nothing again overpowering but um you you'd hope that the that that monkeys kind of off the the potteries back as far as left-hander goes mckenzie or throw much harder and has much better stuff than this kid but you know we've seen guys like this flummox the San Diego potteries all season so hopefully go out and complete that sweep and play with that fire that you had last night and let's let's no messing around and don't let these guys back in it today. Dillon sees of course uh has been scuffling lately now he showed signs of coming out of it in his last start and looked good in the first i think i think the four innings and then in the fifth against the milwaukee brewers uh had that uh walk infield single infield single inning where they kind of just dunked it around on him and ended up knocking him out of the game with the uh the four run top of the fifth inning so he he hasn't been very efficient though and and obviously the potteries would love to see Dillon sees go six or seven that'd be great off it's been a while since we've seen that out of him so uh see if he can build on some of the good things and not necessarily the bad things from his last start against the milwaukee brewers uh potteries did win that game though and uh will be going for the sweep uh this afternoon again at one ten first pitch yeah i mean heavily favored in this game you got your your uh a guy that that had the potential to be your ace at the beginning of the season and Dillon sees Matt Waldron's clearly the ace of the staff right now which nobody thought they would say but uh they absolutely he absolutely is and he's earned it and he's pitched his tail off so Dillon needs to go out and complete this thing today i wonder if uh if Sullivan will get the start behind the plate day game after the night game or if they'll try to go probably hagashyoka against another lefty and squeeze one more day out of him going into an off day he's left handed so he's switching right to left hand he's definitely can hit from the left side yeah um but maybe you get him out later in the game i'm not even sure but hagashyoka i saw a stat yesterday his uh his isolated power like this month it's like fourth in baseball uh you know behind like guys like Aaron judge uh he has actually really been pounding the ball and you know gives you a dangerous weapon while he's hot there near the bottom of the lineup and with you know tatisa you need as many weapons as you can get and he's one of them right now who would have thought Kyle hagashyoka you would have been mentioned as a weapon an offensive weapon for the sandy he has been this month guys have really stepped up so we want to keep that that train rolling right now so uh we'll be back tomorrow morning to to talk about it all uh four hours plus the extra hour for the round table tomorrow from 10 to 11 looking forward to Annie and all student coming up next they'll have their own takes of course Annie was in the in the clubhouse after the game we played some of that sound that she got with jerks and pro farm sure she has other observations and and anecdotes and and sound for you coming up in their potteries deep dive as well pretty much our entire four hours were we're on that game i'm imagining the next two until Sammy's pre-game show will be more on last night's game and uh looking ahead to what they've got this afternoon that was a fun one today boy it was a good one yes i know a lot of people were anticipating this morning show i hope we lived up to everybody's uh expectations always makes me nervous when i see those oh can't wait for better oh god we better deliver we need nine more hours in something like oh no it was pretty easy to get up this morning it was very scary that's for sure uh Steve Sugamoto thank you for coming in keep the street going at the game this afternoon before you go to your rehab for Paul Reindel for Stephen Woods i bet Higgins have a great rest of your Wednesday from all of us here at San Diego's number one sports station 97-3 the fans so long everybody all right thanks again to Brett Bohn joining us in our last segment don't forget you can tune in every Thursday at 10 a.m that is a t5 hours from now for 97-3 the fans commercial free pod praise roundtable featuring Ben and Woods any and else didn't win and Chris presented by San Diego roundtable pizza for takeout or delivery go to roundtable pizza dot com roundtable the last honest pizza Steve Sugamoto should have been here tomorrow he could have enjoyed plenty of free pizza we always have leftovers on Thursdays at the roundtable yeah we don't actually get to eat it we just get to smell it and look at it any thoughts on the question that i posed in the last hour that's going to be a roundtable question what if any contract extension offer do you make to keep jerks and pro far in apandre's uniform i saw 20 years two and a half billion dollars in the youtube chat so probably not your not your money so yeah money i don't know if they have any money i love that eric hosmer by the way is tweeting time to start extending pro far yeah it'd be great if we didn't have to pay you 13 million dollars to podcast jesus christ almighty really give him your 13 we could keep it it's done really use that done deal god one year eric hosmer's 13 million dollars this is not the jerks in pro far until that 25 that's like robbing a bank and then just going out years later constantly posting about how you robbed a bank yeah it's insane let me just lay low stop talking about it yeah just stop tweeting it you want to cover majorly base but go cover other teams that aren't paying you right now we got it here man god bless drove me nuts time to start talking about extending jerks pervert you took all of our money and you don't play to all of it i guess the real dilemma here is that the potteries do have financial constraints they're real we've they've been dealing with them all year long and you don't want to overpay for jerks and pro far and then if you're jerks and pro far but you're like bro you should be paying 30 i'm putting up 20 million dollars a year i mean i saw the the mid-season espm's like mvp's top i think it was seventh in the mvp balloting basically at the middle of the year that's a 20 to 25 million dollar guy so of course he's going to want his money but what are jerks and's alternatives go play another season for the Rockies right he doesn't want to go anywhere and the potteries also know this so they kind of both have each other over the barrel jerks and can't leave but the potteries can't let jerks and leave either so where where do you end up financially when those are your those are kind of your parameters going into any negotiation again man there's such a mutual there's such a mutual thing here between the two yeah i i cannot in good conscience get on here and say the jerks and pro far should give san diego a hometown discount or anything like that no jerks and pro far should get his money he's got a family he's freaking earned it and is earning it every single night let's say the scenario of two years ago presents itself again right for you could stick around for seven million or you get eight from somewhere else you stay for seven you stay for seven stay for seven just like we're not moving the Cincinnati for a little bit more than we're making now we're just not it's just not going to happen you know they they they know that too so there is a bit of a San Diego discount it's it's it's more of like i'm i'm play really well here it's not even a San Diego discount it's it's just i play well here i fit in i'm a best fit it's a best fit for me personally for my family like i don't he doesn't want it he does it but he needs to if there is an extension offer maybe he needs to feel that it is fair and not well look what happened the last time you went for the box you you were miserable it's got to feel like you know what yeah this is this is good for all parties Spencer wants to know are there constraints once the CBT resets if they don't go over it this year well we don't know we don't know we do know we do know that the the you know the debt service thing that mlb was pressuring the Padres on it is real so there is some constraints there they can go over the CBT next year without quite as many financial and draft penalties but then you start you know they started crewing again if you do it so it's never something you can't think about even the Mets even though they go over all the time they still have to think about where their level is at and what the penalties are because there's draft there's international signing penalties you know they want to go after roki Sasaki they want every dollar available to do that and you can't be going over the CBT if you want the ability to do that is a roki Sasaki a huge sensation Steve Sugamoto in Japan is that is that I heard he's been hurt the last couple of starts but I would like to see him in a Padres uniform next year he's a he's a household name for sure not in a Dodgers uniform so he's definitely someone to keep an eye on this offseason all right we'll get back to the Padres jerks and talking to second right now Paul he's got some headlines with our round of report and get things started here with our addition today's edition of the rindle report now tune into the month greatest welcome to

you talk NBA draft on a member stream we're booting you off that a promise the I was going over some of the you know who's got the first pick and one I've already forgotten so it's Adam's team has the first the Atlanta Hawks select Bronnie James on vacation he went to the draft we hit cheer his first overall pick of the draft hey by the way just as an aside we're gonna see him there with Adam Silver yeah just they look like twins by the way uh two ball riders heads even point to your heads I think you put glasses on Adam Clue though and it's very silly to be the commissioner can you imagine being on vacation this week of all weeks could you imagine he's dying he's dying inside to all the viral content that's coming out of pet co-park this week yes and he's just he's like this involves or something like yeah he's like it's a 100 Georgia and then we're gonna Florida and then yeah it's Georgia 104 degrees you know 90 humidity and he's missing all of this there's also a trade last night big one be a big trade as the uh brooklyn nets traded mccall bridges to the New York Knicks so he doesn't have to go too far the Knicks uh gm aj preller sending five first round draft picks to the Mets you know for mccall bridges which good I mean he's not he's average 26 points a game I would buy I wouldn't call him a five first round draft picks superstar by any stretch of the imagination but hey the Knicks got close last year and they think this can get us closer so let's mortgage everything yeah and bring in another villain over player remember they had the three Villanova players now they have four Villanova players wow Villanova east in New York City now where's Villanova Villanova Villanova yeah that's right listen to this paragraph from woege talking about the trade he goes after teetering in the post Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving windows between pursuing the playoffs and the draft lottery the Nets declared a direction and suddenly have 16 first round

businesses we'll do hard knocks we'll do the n-season hard knocks as well that is unreal man oh god unreal yeah that sounds terrible that's most really does that terrible does when uh this now i'm glad we have uh steve sygomoto here steve what is your flight what does it look like you fly out of la x to tokyo i usually go sannego san francisco first and then to tokyo okay about how much total time in the air is that combined probably like 13 hours okay in the in the air all right it's actually not too bad but uh there's a new trend going around it's mostly uh men doing this and they are raw dogging on their flights i saw this this is the one of the worst things i've ever seen and it's maybe the toughest challenge a man could take you've heard of the iron man triathlon this is harder that's not what you may be thinking when you hear that term right uh because ben's eyes just lit up oh yeah raw talking uh mile high club a whole new meaning yeah yeah yeah okay so men are doing this on fairly long flights three hours six hours 17 hour flights across the world and this all started back in may when a 26-year-old man from london uh posted about his decision to forgo any and all inflight entertainment inflight services no beverages no snacks no meals all he did was stare at the flight radar map on the seat in front of him he raw dogged the flight i could do that i think i could i could just stare at the map the entire time and watch it as it slowly progresses from no water no batter on snacks and nothing i could do it you just sit there you are like ed gained serial killer i could do that there's no way i mean it wouldn't be fun but you know i'd miss the snacks but i i could get through it how how i could go here to d f w which is about a two and a half hour fly i could do it for two and a half i could sit now you can't sleep either now if you could let me sleep i'll raw dog you'd be here to bear stay awake stay awake and just stare i mean men are posting photos they are just sitting upright just staring right at the flight uh the flight radar on the seat back in front of them no nothing no magazine and they're just no phone playing blackjack on your phone nothing nothing that is the end to do it on a 14-hour flight to afghanistan yeah those military flights with no entertainment they're sitting like sideways in the back of the door by the way now the back of a cargo plane or something now that that sounds miserable and the guy that went viral and kind of started this he said uh he calls raw dogging his flights compared to meditation visually you're kind of impaired you only get to look at the seat in front of you to your right or left if you're at the window all you hear is the drumming sound of the engine it's just white noise i'm gonna raw dog the rest of the show like the darkness retreat watch this i'm gonna raw dog the rest of this show oh no music we can't i mean i think you and i can continue to talk poly and and woods is just going to focus in of buttery smooth sound of my voice for the next 45 minutes it's almost a meditative trance that he's in there'll be a better person for it at the end listening to my sultry sultry tones i i do think that i i don't know if i could do like all the way to asia but maybe across the country five hours staring at the map it's too much no way i think i can do it i no no do you really missing the food is terrible the entertainment's usually terrible no but you bring your own obviously you bring your own snacks you bring your own entertainment i download movies i listen to music oh there's new record i want to hear listen to that like yeah depends on how long the flight is i'll download a couple episodes of something or a movie or whatever people said i was making them very uncomfortable staring into the the camera i thought uh at least i said earlier in the chat like people must have thought this guy was a terrorist it would just it would be so unsettling you're on an eight-hour flight and there's somebody just sitting there there's a sign staring there's a sign felt about this putty putty does it on the flight and it drives the land insane she goes can i get you want a magazine he goes no she goes so you know you don't want like a you have a book or anything he goes no so you're just gonna sit there he goes yeah i see i can't do this anymore bro hundred percent i would actually break up because yes i would expect my wife to leave me if i raw dog we're going to Hawaii in july it's like six hours and two kids let us know how long you can go three minutes max there's no chance so freaking great so great remember we interviewed him during the pandemic that's right a Patrick Warburton Patrick Warburton wonder how he's doing let's check in with him for summer break we got better one summer day yeah coming up soon yeah see what he's up to all right good job on the the ronda report uh if you want to join us we got a couple segments left eight

washington nationals get the final matchup look ahead to that coming up next after a check of traffic on ninety seven three the fam wanted to uh offer a quick bit of thank you uh to our brave firefighters out there had a uh that flashback uh to wildfire season yesterday i was driving to work what happened well i was actually i was driving to work and uh i i felt like i wanted to get coffee so i ordered a coffee on the app and i got off at delmore heights yesterday and right there i mean the smoke was absolutely billowing uh the the wildfire that broke out right there in the uh the torrey pines auxiliary reserve right above torrey pines state beach near a ton of houses they had to evacuate they had um you know the helicopters were flying around and the sirens were going all over the place and i was that eerie like it to everything turns yellow when you go into the smoke on a sunny day but then it's like clouds but it's not it's smoke that's blocking everything out and then poly told me that that it got um it got to the point where people were actually like flying their own personal drones around the fire to get shots of it but they are fearing with the aerial operations of the san diego fire crews that we're trying to put it out yeah some idiots don't do this flying drones getting footage of the flames and you have firefighters you know the helicopters the planes have dropped anything that they can to help put out this fire they can't do their job fully when there's drones flying around you are literally putting lives at risks and i believe you can be prosecuted if they find out that you were the one flying a drone feels like something this situation was like something adam would make us do hey there's a fire in delmore can you get your drone we need the footage bro if there these guys are just just please can you can you make your way down there no please i'm begging you so big don't do this moment for anyone trying to fly drones interrupting with the firefighters you also had your own don't do this moment yesterday i mean i no good deed my friend goes unpunished you know i did the all venmo someone sixty nine dollars if the potter is when this came this was a couple nights ago and somebody you know people were dropping their venmos right and so somebody then took my twitter profile picture my name but they changed a little bit to at the stevens woods very good created a venmo a darn show they didn't they didn't hack your venmo no and my venmo was not they just made their venmo look as much like yours is my no look like my twitter so it doesn't even my venmo pictures completely different than my twitter picture so they took my twitter took most you know my name and added an ass and then so i was getting dms from people going dude is this real do you need five dollars so they just went on your twitter where everybody's venmo handles correct and then they start seeing those venmo handles and started requesting money from them five dollars so i call i had to call venmo support and talk to a gust what they fell on hard times yeah and i said hey i tweeted like don't worry about me i've got hundreds of dollars to my name i'm fine all right so don't send me five dollars i don't need it constantly requested five dollars but then said they were giving me twenty five dollars for a sandwich very well done guys very very well done um so i had to call venmo support he's like he goes it so it's not they didn't hack your venmo they're impersonating you and we will make sure that they don't do it again but i just got another one but i don't know if it came yesterday uh Fritz just sent me one it said stevens i am hungry now what steven woods canceled a request for five dollars oh so they must have gone in and fixed it so sorry about that everybody i won't be asking for anybody's venmo anymore and um it was not me asking you for for five dollars i'm good i'm actually not to say that at some point it won't come to them correct yeah i i've i've i've hit some parlays recently we've had some bonuses everything's good you know everything's good and financially uh here for for me but you know 15 years down the line if someone's going hey you remember that men in woods show you used to enjoy well i've hit some hard times any five dollars if you've been mow me five bucks it might actually be you at that point it could be i mean i'm not going to rule anything i'm always said i'm not going to ask or my audience for anything you know i'm not it listen if it's charity or something hey share it if you can't donate whatever but it's never going to be to benefit me financially does that make sense like even when we sell a t-shirt that goes into the show fund like that's to buy stuff for the christmas show and everything else i'm not i'm not trying to profit i'm always very careful i didn't receive one of those requests but had i gotten one i would have said no yeah we know we know and had it come from you actually i also would have said no because i'm very careful about not sending any money i and it was weird i got anyone i woke up this morning too and i had a uh i had a i woke up this morning the first text i saw was like some 903 number that said you know your car was like on the fast lane the the easy pass or something fast track the hov lanes and i woke up it was like three o'clock in the morning and i looked at my phone i go did i get in a wrong lane because i was driving like mad yesterday i was up to forest ranch a couple of times i'm like is there a there's not there's no toll road up there yeah no if you use the hov lane but i did it that can be a toll road as well okay but i did not do that so i knew this is a skim i did click on it just for a second too late and it said it said uh it was like for the bay area and i was like now this isn't they've already got you now whatever it's fine i'm gonna get much from someone's riding around california for free on your tab now find on me whatever and uh don't send me any money please i don't need it at this point might someday all right let's take a final timeout when we come back we'll look ahead at the series finale today at pet co park we got afternoon day baseball for you fireworks today a couple of uh yeah it might be i mean there's no reason why there couldn't be we got a couple collars on the line as well stay there final segment of benewoods on the way next on san diego's number one sports station 97-3 the fan interesting note here on jeremy astrada welcome back it's benewood's final segment here on a wednesday and clearly he is uh he's not the same pitcher who struck out 13 banners in a row earlier this season uh but kevin asi wrote in his newsletter this morning he's still 15 pounds down from when he developed the flu-like symptoms earlier this month june 11 right yeah he's uh he's resumed to eating semi-regularly but still limited to just white rice and bread right now so he can't even keep protein down really he's available most nights he wants to give everything that he's got obviously he's been weakened by this illness that he's still kind of dealing with so if he's not quite the perfect setup man uh hopefully he'll be able to get back to that as he continues to get a little bit healthier just when moving on just when something starts going good they're like he's got a stomach eating virus it loses 15 how do i get it 15 pounds you don't want that kind of weight loss that's no oh yeah i i was just i was looking at uh the the thing he was talking about how gnarly it's kind of been and he said when he had code he goes it's nowhere close to what i had when i had code well he almost died he almost died yeah and uh he spent two weeks in the hospital he said yeah i've spent like four hours throwing up but i threw up for 24 hours when i had code yeah i mean the velo was up last night commands a little shaky right now but man that's tough and uh and i think the run it was inherited run with steven cola which was unearned because of the uh not a great play by louisa real louisa i said two yeah really bad plays when you're up by what was it five runs touch first before you try to get the double play if you don't get the double play fine you got an out get the sure out you're bro they have six inches away from a sure out take the sure out first ask poly my message to the tier one every Sunday is what collect out just get the out always take a sure out everyone everyone loves the double play who doesn't love a good dp collectin out this is a don't league make a play and then as the ninth thing the game is literally over the ball is in his glove you beat the it's it's over it bounces out all of a sudden the tying run is coming to the plate after the cj Abram single and i mean you had to have the thought like please lean thomas if you had a home run here and this game is now tied again it really would have been one of the most gut punching moments as a pod race fan i can even remember legit would have thought about calling in sick legit would have said i've been throwing up i mean obviously british would have walked it off in the bottom yeah clearly but i didn't need that kind of drama i had plenty of drama last night is a great this is a great quote man from from jeremy says my mindset is winners find a way to win i want to do what i can to help the team i've been doing my best it's been a bumpy road had a couple adding some pitches been hit some pitches have been left up in the zone yeah it's tough man he's he's trying to fight through it as is you know most of the guys on this team right now so again i tip my hat to a lot of these guys out there grinding through some injury and got a little nervous last night on the the miss the swinging the miss from manny and his second a b you know kind of had to stop down for a minute ended up staying in the game drawing a key walk later in the in the game too but yeah man they're they're pretty banged up so you know try to keep that in mind i guess before we go go ham on twitter about you know bad outing or bad swing or something uh i believe bryce johnson had the bunt single uh ahead of the jerks and pro far grandslam was that his first single since i joined the san diego pondris yeah is that his first big league hit no no he had he had a home run and oh he did yeah he played a few weeks in the big leagues for whatever his previous organization was so far i mean the potteries have won both the games that he'd been in the starting lineup but it does feel like you're kind of got more at bats that you're now giving away at the bottom of the order with tatista and at some point that's gonna hurt you right yeah and and eggy i guess was was really working hard in the outfield yesterday he's got to get in there i mean if he's mashed his left-handed pitching you have another lefty on the bump today got to get eggy rizario some abs no question unquestionably needs to be in there today all right let's check traffic we've got some collars in the line final minutes we'll look ahead to that matchup as well i'll come it up here at ninety seven three the fan also didn't really talk about the uh the play where cj abrams who's having a big series got picked off essentially first base as he was just walking back to the bag very heads up though by hot sun came and louisa riz did you see little riz like just very discreetly try to tell throw me the ball and i don't know how the umpire missed that call cj abre right away it was out his tag safe and instantly cj is basically walking back to the dug i like they're going to challenge this and i know i'm out so might as well skip the whole process here and get back to the dugout just right on top of the play i think there's it's not a replay how did you miss how did you miss out i think you took a bite surprise yeah i didn't see when i'm ready he was oh say just like abrems wasn't ready the umpire also wasn't ready if you're davey martinez you are so massively frustrated by that didn't he got picked off twice didn't he uh in the series yeah i mean that was a more traditional pick off but i mean look it's it's it drives you nuts that we've we've had our fair share of bad base running on the san diego potteries this should be given away outs in a game like that just can't happen but a 3 3 2 8 8 0 97 3 final minutes let's get a couple more callers in today after this this show jamey is calling us uh jamey good morning welcome to 97 3 the fan good morning gentlemen how you doing this is umpire jamey how did he miss that call how did he miss that call and perfect timing so i was calling about the the ejection but on that one quickly when you're at the field even in professional baseball sometimes guys are talking to you don't say hey jamey or something you're kind of a quick look and you're not expecting anything right there at that moment yeah i'm always chattering looking back heard the snap of the glove looks back and he's like oh snap it's your domain you should wear one and tag out you cannot and and jamey i mean as an umpire you know you've got a 50-50 chance of getting it right you might as well guess jamey lives his whole life that way i didn't see it but there's a chance i go safe and he was safe and everyone's going oh yeah i was a good coach close for the umpire got that right and it's like i didn't see it at all but it's coin flip yeah it was close didn't get away with that that was not close but the ejection the after the morning was issued i agree with red food on this one once you issued that warning you have to eject them got to go because now you have she'll come out he gets ejected for arguing the fact you didn't do your job you said this is going to happen and protecting my players when you usher that warning from umpire you're protecting the players because that can go on all day and guys can get hurt now if you throw them out and baby jonathan comes out and argues you can toss in because you did your job did you drop so the umpires didn't misstep a little bit there they should have thrown them out but you know there's like 20 000 people screaming out you have the umpire whether you're right or wrong in every stadium once in a while you misstep his face though i i will say as as much as i loathed the call the panic on his face after it happened and he took his mask on the gory's panic no umpire's panic when it hit pro far he'd after the ejection he was white he was white as a ghost he was like and he kind of looked at one dugout kind of looked at the other when he's like oh god what do i do again i think he i think they said on the broadcast he was like he's like a philip from triple a like young dude and he's behind the dish and have had to make that call uh i did have one slight empathetic moment for him going oh my god what do you do i think the best course of action though and believe me i would i'd swear to god if the roles were reversed i would say i would come in here today and say till and see he's had to go he had to go the umpire said there i swear on my mother i would tell you guys guys i know you're upset but he's got to go i i would defend you with my heart that it wasn't intentional but i'd still agree a hundred percent but he does have to go a hundred percent after the warning it's it's it's and if you're i mean you're a buzz the guy on the fourth inning and you would have understood if it was a bad foot slider at like 83 and it bounced and hit him okay all right all right it's not a fast well it was a 98 mile an hour he threw it as hard as he could and it hit and it hit jerks in pro-far it easily easily could have been targeted higher and he just yanked it a little bit too right you don't know you don't know i mean if i'm the pitcher i'm gonna certainly give the reaction like oops sorry i mean it didn't mean to do that no way maybe it was oops i meant to hit you in the back and i i yanked it a little bit and i hit you in the ankle instead yeah you and i think if you're a you know a veteran umpire or a rookie umpire that's filling in from triple a the best course of action is to do follow the rule that you just laid down you just laid it down nobody yeah Davey martina is going to be mad as hell at you but it's such an easy thing to date you saw me i just warned you and them are you joking you're actually out here i don't care if it was intentional it hit him the letter of the law says he's got to go i made the letter of the law i made the law i have to follow it to the letter he's got to go and i swear to god again if dylan c if it happened today i'd come in tomorrow and go look i get it you're pissed i'm pissed but they had just worn dylan c's he hit cj abrams he's got to go so i don't you know i don't i don't know if any means he's going to spill over today i don't think it will i honestly the nationals are fighting for their lives right now and the san Diego potteries want to complete this sweep so i i think it's probably swatched at this point and i think the nationals if if i'm Davey martina's i almost say hey enough jesse kebert all you guys over like how many times can we wake this this giant right here let's not give them any extra motivation today they've already you know beaten us handily so let's just go and try to get a ball game also dylan c's throws very very hard 88 miles an hour yeah not that the other guy doesn't it's 991 and 94 so that's the match up today 110 first pitch 12 10 eco water so cal pre pre-game show DJ hers who is a left-hander third straight and you know potteries have gotten wins in the first two will take the mound for the washington nationals he is uh he has got a what's his year eight four and a half one and one four point five one point three three whip however uh looking at his last few starts now in colorado his last time out gave up a few runs gave up four uh three earn but the start before that against the marlins six innings one hit 13 strikeouts no walks so uh just a couple of starts ago he had an outstanding performance um two two runs allowed in four and a third against the Braves the time before that so he struck out 26 hitters in 18 innings Ben he's he's their number 12 prospect i believe he is a four pitch pitcher mostly fastball change up and a little bit of cutter a little bit of slider in there so uh tops out you know 93 94 nothing again overpowering but um you'd hope that the that that monkeys kind of off the the potteries back as far as left-hander goes mckenzie or throw much harder and has much better stuff than this kid but you know we've seen guys like this flummox the San Diego potteries all season so hopefully go out and complete that sweet man play with that fire that you had last night and let's let's no messing around man don't let these guys back in it today. Dillon sees of course uh has been scuffling lately now he showed signs of coming out of it in his last start and looked good in the first i think i think the four innings and then in the fifth against the Milwaukee Brewers uh had that uh walk infield single infield single inning where they kind of just dunked it around on him and ended up knocking him out of the game with the uh the four run top of the fifth inning so he hasn't been very efficient though and and obviously the potters would love to see Dillon sees go six or seven that'd be great off it's been a while since we've seen that out of him so uh see if he can build on some of the good things and not necessarily the bad things from his last start against the Milwaukee Brewers potteries did win that game though and uh will be going for the sweep uh this afternoon again a one-ten first pitch yeah i mean heavily favored in this game you got your your uh a guy that that had the potential to be your ace at the beginning of the season and Dillon sees Matt Waldron's clearly the ace of the staff right now which nobody thought they would say but uh they absolutely he absolutely is and he's earned it may he's pitched his tail off so Dillon needs to go out and complete this thing today i wonder if uh if Sullivan will get the start behind the plate day game after the night game or if they'll try to go probably Hagashioka against another lefty and squeeze one more day out of him going into an off-text he's a left handed switch in or left hand he's definitely can hit from the left side yeah um but maybe you get him out later in the game i'm not even sure but Hagashioka i saw a stat yesterday his uh his isolated power like this month it's like fourth in baseball uh you know behind like guys like Aaron Judge uh he has actually really been pounding the ball and you know gives you a dangerous weapon while he's hot there near the bottom of the lineup and with you know tatisa you need as many weapons as you can get and he's one of them right now who would have thought Kyle Hagashioka would have been mentioned as a weapon an offensive weapon for the sandy he has been this month guys have really stepped up so we want to keep that that train rolling right now so uh we'll be back tomorrow morning to to talk about it all four hours plus the extra hour for the round table tomorrow from 10 to 11 looking forward to Annie and Elston coming up next they'll have their own takes of course Annie was in the in the clubhouse after the game we played some of that sound that she got with jerks and pro-firm sure she has other observations and uh and anecdotes and and sound for you coming up in their potteries deep dive as well pretty much our entire four hours were we're on that game i'm imagining the next two until Sammy's pregame show will be more on last night's game and uh looking ahead to what they've got this afternoon that was a fun one today boy it was a good one yes i know a lot of people were anticipating this morning show i hope we lived up to everybody's uh expectations always makes me nervous when i see those oh can't wait for better oh god we better deliver only nine more hours since i'm like oh no it was pretty easy to get up this morning it was very scary that's for sure uh Steve Sugimoto thank you for coming in keep the street going at the game this afternoon before you go to your rehab for paul rindall for steven woods i bet hiccans have a great rest of your wednesday from all of us here at san diego's number one sports station 97 3 defense along with everybody interesting note here on jeremy astrada uh welcome back it's been a woods final segment here on a wednesday and clearly he is uh he's not the same pitcher who struck out 13 banners in a row earlier this season uh but kevin asi wrote in his newsletter this morning he's still 15 pounds down from when he developed the flu-like symptoms earlier this month june 11 right yeah he's uh he's resumed to eating semi-regularly but still limited to just white rice and bread right now she can't even keep protein down really he's he's available most nights he wants to give everything that he's got obviously he's been weakened by this illness that he's still kind of dealing with so if he's not quite the perfect setup man uh hopefully he'll be able to get back to that as he continues to get a little bit healthier just went moving on just when something starts going good they're like he's got a stomach eating virus it loses 15 how do i get it 15 pounds you don't want that kind of a lot weight loss that's no he i i i was just i was looking at uh the the thing he was talking about how i'd gnarly it's kind of been and he said when he had code he goes it's nowhere close to what i had when i had code well he almost died he almost died yeah and uh he spent two weeks in the hospital he said yeah i've spent like four hours throwing up but i threw up for 24 hours when i had code but yeah i mean the v-load was up last night commands a little shaky right now but man that's tough and uh and i think the run it was an inherited run with steven cola which was unearned because of the uh not a great play by louisa real louisa i said two yeah really bad plays when you're up by what was it five runs touch first before you try to get the double play if you don't get the double play fine you got an out get the sure out your bro they have six inches away from a sure out take the sure out first ask poly my message to the tier one every Sunday is what collect out just get the out always take a sure out everyone everyone loves the double play who doesn't love a good dp collect an out this is adult league make a play and then as the ninth thing the game is literally over the ball is in his glove you beat the it's it's over it bounces out all of a sudden the tying run is coming to the plate after the cjabrum single and i mean you had to have the thought like please lean thomas if you had a home run here and this game is now tied again it really would have been one of the most gut punching moments as a pod race fan i can even remember legit would have thought about calling in sick legit would have said i've been throwing up i mean obviously jerry would have walked it off in the bottom of the night anyway clearly but i didn't need that kind of drama i had plenty of drama last night is a great this is a great quote man from from jeremy says my mindset is winners find a way to win i want to do what i can to help the team i've been doing my best it's been a bumpy road had a couple adding some pitches been hit some pitches have been left up in the zone um yeah it's tough man he's he's trying to fight through it as is you know most of the guys on this team right now so again i tip my hat to a lot of these guys out there grinding through some injury and got a little nervous last night on the miss the swing and miss from manny in his second a b you know kind of had to stop down for a minute end up staying in the game uh drawing a key walk later in the in the game too but yeah man they're they're pretty banged up so you know try to keep that in mind i guess before

match his left-handed pitching you have another lefty on the bump today got to get eggy rosario samay bees um in no question unquestionably needs to be in there today all right let's check traffic we got some collars in the line uh final minutes we'll look ahead to that matchup as well all coming up here at ninety seven three the fam also didn't really talk about the uh the play where cj abrams who's having a big series got picked off essentially first base as he was just walking back to the bag very heads up though by hot sun cam and luisa rice did you see little rise like just very
