| 0:00.0 | I'm the interrupt to my not Frank I solo and I feel really lucky to be back on TTI with my incredible friend. |
| 0:08.0 | I'm Unicimes and I feel really lucky to be back on PTI. |
| 0:12.0 | Waiting, waiting. That's the end of your sentence right there. Nothing else. |
| 0:18.0 | So happy. |
| 0:20.0 | You want to play that game? We'll see what happens today and tomorrow with you. |
| 0:24.0 | Welcome to PTI, Mike and Tony should be making the turn right about now. |
| 0:30.0 | So I'm joined by despite what she says my great friend from NFL Live, Meena Khan. |
| 0:36.0 | There's just a point that you aren't you know you aren't friendly enough with me. |
| 0:40.0 | Alright, let's start with the struggling Yankees landing and all-star outfielder. |
| 0:44.0 | The Yankees acquired Andrew Benton-Tendi and his 320 average from the Royals for three minor leagues. |
| 0:50.0 | The Yankees right now, they're 66 and 33 overall but just 10 and 12 in July after losing again to the Met's last night. |

| 1:28.0 | And if that is resolved I think this acquisition is a shot in the arm not only for Ben and Tendi potentially but also for the Yankees who have a gaping hole in the outfield with Stanton out and Joey Gallo struggling the way he has. |
| 1:41.0 | They needed to get this done. |
| 1:43.0 | They needed to add a contact hitter at the top of their lineup. I like this move for a team with World Series aspirations. |
| 1:49.0 | Yeah well played with shot in the arm now they do go to Toronto in late September for three games series. |
| 1:54.0 | Now he had said today that yes it's something he'd consider but right now he's not committed to getting the shot. |
