| 0:01.0 | Archie, Buckham. Is that too cheesy? No, no, it's fitting. Archie Bradley, Corne McCoy. Howdy? Two very different backgrounds, and I'm curious to see when this is over if there's not more similarities than we thought. Thank you guys for jumping on. I think there will be. Yeah, yeah, we're rolling. I think the cool thing is like being the professional sports. I mean, you understand that competition, the drive, and what it takes to get there. And just over the last three days, I think we've kind of seen that. And it's like a little hat tip or respect for each other already. It is, it is, you know. Yeah, you respect the game on both sides. |
| 0:54.7 | For people, respect. Game, respect. Game, you know what I mean? There's a lot of game out here this week. For people that aren't as familiar with the baseball world, most of our base is going to be coming in either new fans to rodeo or old fans to rodeo. Tell me, Major League Baseball for how many years? Nine and a half years in the big leagues, played 13 years overall. That's a long career. |
| 0:55.8 | It was a long career. |
| 1:29.5 | I say it in a very humble way. Average career, above average moments, and above average teammates. And isn't it above average time? What's average time in the league? Three and a half years, three years, I think. Are you still the only relief pitcher in history to hit a triple in the playoffs? Did you tell me to say that? I did not know that information. Someone set them up. Yeah, for those you don't know, baseball has been played over 100 years. 2017 in this very ballpark behind me, I hit the most famous triple in baseball history. I am the only relief pitcher to hit a triple in the postseason. So forever in Cooperstown. At what point, at what point as you're running the bases do you think to yourself, |
| 1:36.5 | I think this is a triple? I think I'm going. I realized it rounding second. I should have stopped |
| 1:40.5 | at second. I always keep it real here. It doesn't get talked about. |
| 1:44.7 | I go back out for the eighth inning, and I give up back-to-back home runs and a double. |
| 1:49.2 | And we went from a three-run lead to a one-run lead real quick. |
| 1:52.0 | But we ended up winning the game, so no one ever brings it up. |
| 1:54.9 | But if I'd have stopped at second, I'd have been a lot less tired and probably better to pitch the next inning. |
| 1:59.6 | But you are going to stop me. A lot less record books too. See? You got to know so. You got to go for it. Fortune favors those who round second and keep going. Exactly. You can't hold back. How many years were you here in Phoenix? Man, I played, I debuted here in 2015, and then I got traded during 2020. So I played almost six years here, six full seasons. |
| 2:18.9 | That's the one thing that we don't experience in our sport is getting traded. |
| 2:23.4 | Maybe teams now with the PBR? |
| 2:25.5 | Yeah, yeah. |
| 2:26.2 | We started that about three years ago. |
| 2:27.7 | So I got to be a coach for the Oklahoma Freedom when they very first started. |
| 2:32.1 | So I got to draft the original team. |
| 2:34.7 | So I'm telling you, it's to turn into baseball, looking at every guy's riding building and trying to dig up all the times he's been hurt, how old he is, how many you thought he had. Checked him in medicals, right? Everything that you can think of. And a lot of that stuff is not public information. I mean, you almost got to call a guy or watch him walk and see how much he's limp and see his health check. |
| 2:51.5 | Because there's no requirements to report stuff like that in Bull Riding. |
| 2:54.5 | As of it that day, no. And maybe some of the teams are kind of going into that right now as far as a report. A lot of them are getting their own doctors and things like that. But, yeah, there's no real health check or a record of it. I mean, even for me, I think I only had five doctors tell me never again. And I finally just went to the sixth doctor. I just kept going to doctor until he said, until you give me a blue card, I'm going to get a different doctor. You're not my doctor. So you now hold two records. You may not be aware of the second one. Triple. You also are now the record holder for the most thigh ever shown on the podcast. No, but listen. Listen. Actually, he made me laugh. I'm going to pull my short for a moment, man. I'm going to stand up. You got me self-conscious now. No, continue. That's a great compliment. I actually had a question. |
| 3:41.1 | I looked over and I'm like, man, that's a lot of me. |
