I am in a good mood. I know Tiki is in a good mood, but I also understand that a big part of our audience is pissed off today.

0:10.9

And there are two factions of people who could cross over and be the same person, but there are two groups of people today that are pissed off and let's address it right off the top.

0:21.0

Number one, you've got St. John's fans. They made the tournament. We knew that. They won the

0:26.5

Big East outright and the tournament with just a pounding victory over Yukon on Saturday at the

0:31.8

garden and they get absolutely hosed with a five seed in the bracket of doom. They're pissed off.

0:38.2

And the other group of people that are pissed off, and there's a lot in the audience,

0:41.7

because we heard from you on Friday, are our Dominican fans,

0:46.0

Dominicans who live here, and Dominican baseball fans who feel like last night

0:51.1

in what was an electric atmosphere and a wonderful baseball game.

0:56.4

They feel like they got hosed because not once but twice, Perdomo struck out to end the game

1:01.7

on a pitch that was clearly a ball. And of course, Juan Soto struck out to begin the pivotal

1:06.3

eighth inning on a pitch that was a ball. So we got a lot of pissed off people today.

1:11.2

We will be your outlet. 88880810119. Where do you want to start with us? I mean, the baseball is the most interesting one to me because the world baseball classic is everybody I knew. Hell, my brother's daughter was at the game. I didn't even know. I was like, how do you get there, Justice? She works for fanatics. So I guess it kind of makes sense.

1:27.7

All right.

1:28.7

Everybody I knew was at this WBC game.

1:31.4

I was like, how did you get there? Justice? She works for fanatics, so I guess it kind of makes sense. But everybody I knew was at this WBC game. I was like, everybody made the trip to go down. And the only thing that I could think about after the game was, why don't they have ABS? I know. Why? They're trialing this everywhere. It's been in the miners for, I don't know, four years, three or four years, whatever it may be. It's now come to spring training and major league baseball spring training. So why are we not having this at the WBC? Because that would have solved it. Now, I loved what Albert Pujo said. It just wasn't meant to be. No. You know, we're not going to argue about the last pitch.

2:01.7

It is what it is.

2:02.7

But how can you not? I mean, Millett do an unbelievable pitch. I thought it would get swung at my perdomo, but he just kind of, he looked at it. He spit on it. Because it was a ball. I know, but it started in the zone and just, it dived down. and I was like, you got to swing at that bitch, dude, it's three two.

2:18.3

With two outs, you have to swing at the pitch.

2:20.1

It's so bold, though.

2:21.2

It was. and just, it dived down. And I was like, you got to swing at that pitch, dude, it's three, two.

2:34.9

With two outs, you have to swing it. It's a ball, though. It was a ball. You can tell me he didn't know it was going to be a ball. Well, because he has a really good eye. Of course he does. But still, I was shocked that he didn't swing, but even more shocked when the USA got the call. You know, I watched this game.
