We don't stop here on fantasy baseball today. What's up everybody?

Scott had a baby. There's more correctly Scott's wife and a baby. So it's me and Chris.

Yeah, let's give credit. We're credit. Yeah, Scott. Scott did very little. Scott did nothing. Scott was useless. But congratulations to Scott and his beautiful wife and his beautiful family to baby boys. Well, two boys. And we're going to miss him for the next. I don't know a few weeks until he's back.

Six weeks. I believe he will be back in November. Six weeks. Who gets six weeks? You do if you have a baby. Geez. I would like to have like four in a row. I don't think that's how it works. But if I had quadruple, what if like what if my wife not pregnant, what if she had quadruple, it's what I get 24 weeks off? You know, I don't know, but I would guess not. Chris, talk to the manager bit here. That doesn't seem fair. It's four times more. I'll see what I can do.

All right. My voice is fading because I went to some playoff baseball last night. I had a good time. It was awesome. We'll talk about that game. So you were one of the overexcited Yankees fans who couldn't tell when a ball was hit a hundred feet or 400 feet. So that's what he said on the podcast this morning. And since he's on the football podcast. And he said it. I figured, you know, you're probably going to say it too. I mean, we haven't talked about this. I didn't notice it. I didn't notice it actually. But I will say this. I was sitting.

I was sitting in the outfield basically on the left field line slightly in foul territory. So kind of far away, but like 200 levels, not 400 or anything. I enjoyed the seats. They were good. I couldn't see left field. I don't know if I said I was in right field or left field. I was in left field. Yeah. I couldn't see like the wall and left field. So like Joe Mauer had that fly out with two on and two out and he was a tie run. I couldn't see that at all. Yeah. I went to.

In the 2003 World Series, I went to game four. The one where Alex and Zalas hits the walkoff home run. And I'm hitting. You remember Dolphin Stadium at that point. I think it was pro player probably still 2003. Why not? And I'm sitting in dead center field. So probably like 600 feet away from home plate. That's the game where like Miguel Cabrera hits the home run off Roger Clemens. And what we thought was Roger Clemens last game. Alex Gonzalez hits the walkoff home run for the Marlins.

I saw neither of those balls go out because of the way the the angles at the old stadium were. You know, nobody ever sat in the upper deck. But when you did for baseball, you couldn't see the outfield. Right. I pretty much could not see right field. I mean, I could see most of the outfield. I just couldn't see the wall and like the war. I couldn't see the warning track and a lot of left field.

But what I was going to say was there was a ball. Aaron Judge was up and he swung and he hit a ball. And off the bat. It looked like it was coming like right at me. I was like, Oh my God. He might have just crushed this ball. He fouled it back to the screen. But for. Yeah, not even half a second for a quarter of a second. I was like, Oh, and then I realized, Oh, wait, no, not even close. Yeah, there was the. Well, they went down three nothing in the first inning of that game. We'll just we'll just give the play by play for this whole game. Right. No, and now.

No, and in that one, I think runner on first judge, they're down three nothing. The crowd is super anxious. I guess it's been a long time since you guys have had anything to root for.

And he hits like I look down at my phone for a second. And I hear the crowd go absolutely insane. Like I thought I look down and I hear the crowd and I thought judge must have hit like a 500 and a foot home run to dead center.

It was like a leading eye single line drive. It was a solid. It was a kind of it was a jam shot. It was not a well. I don't think so. I think it was a solid line drive single either way.

It moved the runner to third. They made a game. They were down by throwing the first inning. I thought he hit like the 70th third home run up the season of some credit. Okay. The crowd was amped. And the. The reaction. You guys were like.

Early 2010s Oklahoma City Thunder crowd who had like never seen a baseball game before. You know, it was adorable. Look, Yankees were in the wildcard two years ago. They lost the Astros. I was at that game too. And it was also fun. But there was nothing to cheer about because Dallas Kikos shut them down.

This was the I mean, this they really love this team. Like it is fun. It's a fun team. It's a lot of home players. And it's a. That was a. That ball was hit 73 miles per hour.

Yeah, he crushed that you couldn't hit a ball 73 miles per hour. But then the next the bat was was owner of the next bag of Sanchez. Then the DD home run. I've been saying that was fun. No, it was a fun game was paying about it. It was funny. No, all right. Yeah, you make fun. We want we had a great time.

And did it look none of us saw the Yankees making the playoffs. What we're going to do today is basically talk about that game yesterday's game for an hour. But after we do that now we're done.

We're going to look back at our bolt predictions and our MLB preseason picks and see how we did. We're going to read an email about a bad, bad fantasy baseball beat. Look at the top five finishers in a capture first base and second base. Some news and notes. Some late season things that caught my eye and your emails at fantasy baseball at CBSI dot com.

First, thank you to everybody for listening this whole season. We're getting my favorite emails. The thank you for helping me win my league emails. Those are always fun. And they're coming in and yeah, I've been responding to some of them. If I don't respond to you, I'm very sorry. We're getting a lot, but we very, very much appreciate it. And it's been a great year. Every year.

Something changes not every year, but a lot of years, something changes on the podcast. First, it was Eric Mack awhile ago. He left and then Nando left and then Al left. And every year, I'm like, kind of worried.

Like, oh man, we lost such a key component of the show. How are we going to do it? And every year you guys, the listeners involved with you, Chris and Scott and he you all step up. We had our best year ever.

I was so proud of you. I thought you were going to go a different route with that. Like the, the like fresh prince of Bel Air, very dramatic scene. Like, man, Al wasn't there for me in 2017. And I don't need him anyway.
