This is the Baseball Tonight podcast for Wednesday, August 16, 2023, and today will be better

0:18.7

than yesterday, working from the Bristol area, Taylor, Sarah, Bruce, I'm Buster only

0:23.6

working from Upstate, New York on vacation, and guys, thanks for filling in with Sarah

0:28.8

Langs on Monday's podcast. It sounds like you guys had fun.

0:32.4

Yeah, it was a great time. I love Sarah Langs podcast takeovers. She's just like such a

0:38.4

ray of sunshine. So, you know, I hope you guys are having fun on vacation, and if you

0:42.9

ever want to take another one, that's fine too.

0:46.4

Well, I might be taking you up on that. I'm driving back across the country with my dog

0:50.4

Quini next week. So maybe Monday, but we'll see how that goes. Tell me a highlight from Sarah's

0:57.7

podcast that jumped out to you guys. I loved her top three stories personally, and hearing her

1:21.2

and Fernando Mania was right up my alley. You know, I was 17 years old when Fernando had that

1:27.8

amazing start to his 1981 season. You know, at that time, the games weren't on television

1:33.5

every night, and you'd pick up the newspaper. You listen to the radio the following morning,

1:37.4

like, did he do it again? Did he do it again? It would be like Dodgers, too. Philly's none on the

1:42.0

lion's square. You're like, oh my god, he just keeps rolling here. And the excitement level

1:47.0

definitely reminds me of Jeremy Len when he had that absolute burst of time with the next,

1:53.6

and with Otani, in terms of like the excitement level around every time this player pitched. So,

1:59.8

you know, I appreciate Natalie jumping on and talking about that. I wish I could have been a

2:03.3

part of that, though. I wish I had that idea for doing it. You know, you're missing out over there.
