Today, Eric, thank you for the time.

It's a fun trivia question.

You know, do most people realize that you were that good for that long and still hold that record?

I think I just survived.

I'm just holding it temporarily until Shohei blows it up, and then it will change to the domestic home run leader in L.A. history.

What a great way to look at it.

There's always a qualifier you can use

in a baseball conversation.

How crazy

is it? How much fun is it to watch

that guy? You know, like he beat

out an infield, a ground ball that could have been to double play.

And that ball game last night, you forget just how fast he is when he's doing everything

else, too.

Yeah, there, you know, there aren't many guys that you play alongside that you marvel at, right?

You know, you figure, okay, you know, yeah, they're good and they're better than you were, you know, there's different tiers, but what was Shoah, that is just a completely

different level as far as, you know, the other day we, I was calling the game and he threw, he

threw a pitch, it was over a hundred miles an hour.

And, you know, and then he's also hitting in that game.

And that's when you just say that this is literally, you know, you go back to, you know,

bad news bears back in the 70s and Kelly Leak is this guy that was just, you know,

the character was just crazy good, right? That's, you know, he's the Kelly Leak of this guy that was just, you know, the character was just crazy good, right?
