You know what the difference is? There's so many guys on there now. It's like a cast of thousands, okay? But it's hard. You know, you guys look like the AAA guys compared to the Fox guys when you look at the stats. I mean, that's the problem, you know? The stats on the Fox guys, even though the Fox guys sometimes, you don't know what the heck they're talking about.

0:54.6

But those guys all have, I mean, think about it there.

0:57.2

Hernandez is like, That's on the Fox guys. Even though the Fox guys sometimes, you don't know what the heck they're talking about.

0:56.9

But those guys all have, I mean, think about it there.

1:10.7

Hernandez is like the guy who has to bat eighth in that lineup. Think about it. I mean, he's Keith Hernandez. He can't even put up his stats there. He's got Frank Thomas. He's got Big Poppy. He's got A-Rod. These guys got 9,000 home runs among the three of them.

1:12.1

I know, Mike.

1:11.4

I always had it saying, you guys bat third from... Poppy's got A-Rod. These guys got 9,000 home runs among the three of them. I know, Mike.

1:12.2

I always had it saying you guys bat third from 7 o'clock to 10 o'clock, and I bet third in life. That's exactly right. Because they do bat third then. I mean, man, oh, man. Think about how much offense you have there. How would you like to go through, how would you like to go through A-Rod, Big Poppy, and Frank Thomas in an inning, huh?

1:31.3

I'd back. I mean, A-Rod does his homework. You can tell Poppy is just a huge personality. He just goes out there and says whatever he pleases. He has no idea what he's going to say.

1:44.6

But he's having fun.

1:45.5

He is having fun. I'll tell you this, to be fair. I did a charity event, and the big star of the day was Big Poppy, and I'm like, oh, I can't believe I got to spend a day with this guy. And this is, he was great. He was, he is just the nicest guy and he's just delightful.

2:04.4

I mean, I couldn't believe it. I was like, yeah, you could not like him. He was, he was a great guy. He could not have been a nice guy the whole day. I brought my eight-year-old to the Houston games three, four, and five, and we're walking through the trailers. And he, he turned to me, Dad, that's Big Poppy. And you walk over and you're expecting, like, hey, kid, what's up? Maybe a quick picture. He took my son off in the trailers for like five, ten minutes and was like going through hitting styles and had a spit on his hands before his pregame at bat. So, yeah, he's got a special place. He is a good guy. He's a pretty special guy. All right, here we go. We're talking with Mark DeRosa, MLB Network, game seven. Coverage tonight starts at three at Dodger Stadium. I just saw a dog on the field at Dodger Stadium doing a stand-up on CNBC. I just saw me. He was out the field. I said,

2:51.6

geez, dogs out there at the World Series. I mean, Dog loves to go to the World Series. That's one of his things it always was. He loves to go to the World Series. Absolutely. I actually, we got out of there in about the top of the ninth last night. We figured Jansen looked so good in the eighth. we could beat the traffic out of there, and I drove back to the hotel and had a few adult beverages, and we watched the ninth inning me and dog. Oh, you did? Okay, good. So there you go. So you're there, too. All right, so here we go. Now, I have to tell you, I thought I'm a big home field guy in these games.

3:25.8

3:29.6

I thought they'd find a way against Kirsch, against Verlander.
