This old routine will drive me mad

It's just a mum who'll never spoken out loud

Sometimes you can't even recall the sound of his laughter

Oh, well did you ever even know the sound?

Hello and welcome to episode 1198 to Perfectively Wild

a baseball podcast from Ben Graff's presented by our Patreon supporters

I'm Ben Lindbergh of the Ringer joined by Jeff Sullivan of Fancrap's

Hello, hello, well surprised by how quickly I settle into season mode or regular season mode

There's just no baseball for months upon months. I don't even really watch spring training baseball much unless there's something really exciting happening

So I just go from cold turkey to suddenly there are 13 to 15 baseball games a day

and I settle right back into that routine of checking the scores and checking the stats and seeing what's happening

and turning on M O B TV in the background while I'm doing other stuff

and hearing the same clips over and over and over and over again during this break in the action

Here's a popular clip from L O B dot com. I hope that doesn't last all seasons or at least show more clips

There should be a lot of clips, a lot of baseball out there so anyway that's been the only negative

It's nice to have baseball back and it's just very familiar

You get back into the swing of things very quickly

One of those popular clips, you know one of the, there's a popular clip from M O B dot com or whatever it is

And then it's a Justin Verlander throwing his second no-hitter in a Tiger's uniform

And he closes it out and the announcer is like it's another no-hitter for the Tiger Horse

It's like you probably shouldn't put two animal names right in front of one another

But the Tiger Horse made me, uh, made me think but yeah, I know what you mean
