That is my man, Trevor Plute. I am Chris Rose, producer Dan, along for the ride as well.

Can I tell you what I did yesterday very quickly? It's baseball related.

Oh, sheesh. You went to the batting cages and took 50 swings.

sacramento a's i guess i can't shh can't call that no one tell them where they play uh interviewed

shay lang leers who's had an all-star season.

He'll be coming out next episode of dugout discussions, did a really fun

teammate test with them in front of an audience.

There were like Severino, Ginn, Spring.

They were all out there watching their teammates play.
