Get to the freaking auto!

From the Quantum Fiber Studio, this is Brock & Sock on Seattle Sports.

Brock Heward and Mark, Matt, Markers.

Sorry about just...

Mike.

Heward, not exactly Joe Katz there in the pocket.

Now here are your hosts, Brock Heward and Mike Salk.

All right, final hour of our week here on the Brock and Salk show,

C.L. Sports on 710 and on YouTube, of course.

We're going to open up the phone lines as we do in about 30 minutes.

It's been a lot of Seahawks talk this week,

so I'm sure that we'll get a few Seahawks

calls, but I'm really hoping to dig in some Mariner stuff as well. Talks in baseball with you guys at 930, which is generally a big Friday and late morning thing for us. So looking forward to doing that, and that's a perfect lead-in. If you are watching on YouTube, you see the man to my left and that is Buki Gates.

Good friend of the show and good to have you back here, man.

It's always good to be back, but I do want to call something out. I'm probably one of the most inconsistent, consistent guest that you can have. You know, I'm here every now and then. It may be late February, early March. You're going to find me on this radio show. So I'm just glad to be here. Well, we love having you here. Baseball Beyond Borders, for those who don't remember, Buki. Just give everyone for anyone, we have some new listeners. I mean, they just won the Super Bowl. Yeah. Mariners went to the ALCS. There are a couple people that have maybe started tuning in for the first time and aren't as familiar with everybody who stops by here.

Can you give us the one minute baseball beyond borders?

What is it?

What do you guys do?

It's an awesome program.

Absolutely. I love this.

Sports-based youth development organization really just providing the access gaps for baseball

and softball for youth of color, but also just advocating for baseball across our region. That's not even a full minute. That's like the 10-second version. That's all you need. How long you guys been around? Been around almost 17 years doing this work. Obviously, you know, it's been a passion project of mine and the communities, right? I think it's building off of the community desire and need that they want to see more baseball and softball access. And it does help when the Seattle Mariners have success. Then that's going to garner more interest in the game of baseball and softball. And so we want to make sure that we can be a catch basin and ensure every kid has a place to play. And you guys have some connection with the Mariners as well, right? You work with them? We work very closely with the Mariners. Obviously, one of our board of directors is the manager, Dan Wilson, who's done a lot of work.
