0:44.7

it's coming. But at any rate, we are happy to talk here, talking all things baseball. We're

0:52.6

starting to get a couple of questions firing in here. I'm not surprised at this one here, talking all things baseball. We're starting to get a couple of questions firing in here.

0:56.6

I'm not surprised at this one here, but let's start off right off the top here. The title, Fred

1:01.6

loses in man versus machine. What happened, Fred? So I go through this every Monday with Jeff Zimmerman,

2:10.4
