| 0:00.0 | Spiegel and home show flashback, flashback, flashback. Greg Counsel, the manager of the Cubs. It's just perspective, you know, where we're at, you can get stuck. The last month has been a rough month. But if you look up and just work what's in front of us, what's our opportunity, what can we still accomplish, none of that has really changed. And, you know, that's a lot of motivation to come and try to figure this thing out. and I think that's how the guys feel too. |
| 0:24.3 | And you know that's a lot of motivation to come and try to figure this thing out and i think that's how the guys feel too and you know what's going to get better and i and i do believe in a lot of the things you know our hitters are are trying to do you know you don't always get what you want the day you the day you kind of start practicing or the the week you start practicing or the couple days you start it |
| 0:38.4 | but you're going to get it if it's the right thing and our guys are going to get it and our hitters |
| 0:42.4 | are going to get it it's just we don't get to be we don't get to know exactly when |
