0:32.6

it's been a while it's been a while it's been a while it's been a really long time but uh glad to be doing it. So, and, you know, hey, golf, you know, it was fun watching the 37,000 times they played 18 at the golf tournament today. But, you know, anyway, this is a baseball podcast. We'll save our rant for that on Tuesday. But, hey, rumor has it that gaming golf got the winner right. So you might want to check the archives there with me and Ritter. They'll see if we got it right. I like that. I was unable to join last week, and you're picking winners. I don't think that there is, I don't think that's a coincidence. Yeah, well, it's only because I had to work harder than usual there. We consider just like letting you get, you carry the whole podcast. so there you guys um how are your baseball team going uh you know it's uh it's been weird like it was really bad for like three weeks and then one of my two made events team kind of did well this week and i'm not giving up on the other one but it's kind of at the point where the pitching so bad that i might have to but it was a it was a fun weekend in baseball i know everybody watching Yankees Red Sox or Dodgers Cubs, but I tell you what, Jeff, anybody who watched

1:31.2

A's Giants this weekend, I know I'm a little bit of a homer there, but that series was like it was electric, the crowds were crazy because those teams hit each other anyway, the fans don't like each other, good rivalry and then all of a sudden like really good game Saturday night was it was painful

1:27.6

because the A's lost it about seven different times but like really good back and forth games.

1:31.5

I'll tell you what I we kind of wrote off the Giants in May but I mean that team battles they are they have good at bats they have good pitching it's like they bring out like Tyler Rogers looked really good which you know last year was like oh here comes Tyler Rogers here's four runs and he looks really good Jake McGee's out there throwing one pitch and pitch and looking good. But it was a really fun and good series. And it's fun when both those teams are good. Those games are really good. Yeah, they were. Yeah, it was a gut punch Saturday night, especially because you got down to your 18th man in the bullpen there in Birch Smith. Good God. good god yeah that was tough but i mean that the relay

2:19.2

by chapman to hose the runner at the plate in the ninth that was awesome it was funny because you could tell they were running on tony kemp which you should do yes and then you can see the third base coach is like oh damn they've got to chapman and it was just lights out at that point that chapman's got Chapman's got such a gut.

2:14.4

It's insane.

2:15.2

It's like running on Chris Davis.

2:16.7

2:17.3

As long as you hit the cutoff, man, you're fine.

2:19.5

Chris,

2:19.8

Chris. at that point. Chapman's got such a gut. It's insane. It's like running on Chris Davis.

2:34.9

Oh, yeah.

2:35.5

As long as you hit the cutoff, man, you're fine.

2:38.5

Chris Davis wouldn't hit the cutoff, man, so the guy would have scored. But yeah, it was nice. Yeah. Matt Chapman, by the way, coming alive at the plate, too, a little. Fine. I mean, he figured I had to at some point, maybe just off the surgery and the injuries, maybe just needed some time.

2:36.1

But he finally, like the last two Maybe just off the surgery and the injuries.

2:51.0

Maybe he just needed some time. But he finally, like the last two weeks, kind of looks like the guy that we all liked in 2019 a lot. Obviously, the Devens has always been there. But yeah, he's definitely coming out of the play. It's a good time because Matt Olson had a really quiet series. He's been carrying them so you can't really fault that.
