Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Yeah, it is our pleasure to fill in for Dan
Patrick on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Covino and Richard, you heard them. We are live from
MLB All Star Village in Atlanta. Let's go.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
It's the ultimate baseball hot spot and you can be
part of the excitement here at Capitol One All Star Village.
Do today, head to the Cobb gallerya for baseball fun,
live entertainment like us and interactive games by tickets today
at All Star game dot Com. So yeah, Covino and
rich are back day two of the Dan Patrick Patrick
(00:39):
It's always great filling in and we're famous.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
What could you say?
Speaker 2 (00:43):
I mean, Idia saw us on TV last night at
the Derby Bushwhacken. I mean, it never gets old. It's
it's a tradition that I will do until I can
bushwhack no longer. Oh man, it is the best thing
we ever started. This tradition started many years ago. Our
goal was just to get on TV like beaves and
(01:04):
butt heead, whether it be whether it be behind a
reporter you know, on the news, or bushwhacking in the stands.
And it's such a thrill. It's the goofiest thing ever.
If you've ever been on the big screen at a ballgame, yeah,
you know, when you're just there and all of a
sudden you're on the big screen, you just lose your mind.
That's how it is when the home run comes into
(01:25):
your direction. So yeah, there's a sense of showmanship because
we're trying to get on TV, but that's just pure elation,
pure excitement and joy. When the ball comes our way.
It's the craziest feeling. And we just know that the
cameras are there, so we might as well bush whack
like Luke and butsch from WHOA from the WWE. And
we got a lot of airtime last night because we
(01:47):
found our way right there in left field. And what
a night. It was electric last night. We got to
tell you all about it. It's up, Danny g what up?
Good morning?
Speaker 4 (01:56):
I think Jerry Wiley on social media he posted this,
He said it best. They got more airtime tonight than
when they were actually on ESPN, And you know what,
I can't disagree.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
He's absolutely right. We had more fun. I'll tell you that.
You know, it was so great last night.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Baseball's really they're really up to something remarkable. They figured
it out, they got superstars. The event was amazing and
again not our first rodeo. This is what like our
tenth maybe home run derby we've ever gone to, and
it was just as exciting, if not more than ever
came down to the wire, small market teams representing so
(02:35):
much to talk about. Well, I was just gonna say,
there's so many angles from last night, but let me
give everyone the quick backstory of bushwhacking and Cavino rech
Just a quick backstory so you know what the heck
we're talking about. So like our first derby way he said,
maybe ten fifteen years ago. Yeah, we decided to tell
our listeners, you guys look out for us tonight. We're
(02:56):
gonna try to get on the derby somehow someway Kavino's
gonna be wearing the pinstripes. It's like a little like
Where's Waldo sort of game, like I think I see you,
I'm gonna rock like my old school Mets Jersey, so
you'll see us together and if we think the cameras
on us, we'll start doing the bushwhack. Remember the old
WWE wrestlers yay, and we did it one year and
(03:18):
then the next you were like, let's do it again,
And like Cavino said, it became more fun to try
to unintentionally get on TV than when we're intentionally on
TV or broadcast. Not only a thrill for us, and
it's a double thrill, the thrill of the home run
ball coming in your direction and you're there sharing in
the moment with the crowd, but the thrill of knowing
(03:39):
that all your friends and listeners are going to see
you on TV.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
So it's so funny and.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I don't know how to dec I don't know how
to describe it because it sounds ridiculous because not to brag,
we've had TV shows on different networks, different you know,
things we've streamed, but sounds when you are unintentionally on
TV light there there there's more of a joint. Like
Danny g one time I went with my wife to
a taping of The Bachelor after the final rows and
(04:07):
they pand it on me and my wife like clapping.
More people hit me up for that than anything I've
ever done on my own, So I think I think
people love to see someone they know at like I
guess you would say, like a unique event or something right.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
So last night home run derby. I will say this.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
We go to the derby with our credential, we have
our press pass, we don't have an actual seat. So
I say, Covino follow me, and I just sort of
go to left field, walk down the aisle and I'm like,
all right, I see some empty seats and like the
(04:51):
fourth or fifth row in left field, I'm gonna sit
there until someone tells us to move. And guess what,
Danny g whatever, No one ever came, nobody ever told
us to move.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
You know, it helped that the two guys you chose
to sit next to were wearing bright neon colored shirt.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Not only that, bro, it's such a small world that
the guy we were sitting next to is like from
the same hometown as Rich, in the same area.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
He goes, yeah, let's go Mets.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
And he had a Met shirt on underneath his yellow
Neon shirt. And he goes, yeah, I went to I
went to Swanka High School in Long Island. I go, dude,
I went I went to his competing high school. Like
we lived five minutes. You went to Franklin Square Carry
Carry High And Rich was like yeah, so again, like
what a coincident dance? How Random is that you have
(05:42):
to realize Rich is from a small part of Long Island.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Random High School. We're in Atlanta.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
We're in Atlanta, and they were welcoming of us to
be there, and yeah, it was easy to spot us
because we're sitting next to two dudes in Neon green shirts.
And what an excite event. We've said it every year
and every time we're still coming off that high and
all the feedback because people are like, dude.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I saw you a million times. It was hilarious.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
But it is the greatest sporting event out of all
four major sports. We're not saying World Series, Stanley copp
NBA Finals. We're saying, like, as far as events, it's
the most exciting, or the Super.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Bowl exhibition, it's the best exhibition.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Yeah, by far, the best, most fun you're gonna have.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
If you have buddies you want to have fun with,
if you have kids you want.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
To build memories with, this is the event to go to.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
It surpasses the All Star Game, I think by a
mile in my opinion that.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
That's how much fun it is. Guys like, I'm excited
to go.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I'm excited to go to the game tonight, but I
told Kevino tonight, and we're gonna get to the derby
in a second.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
Just our observations.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
If you go to at Covine on Rich at Rich
Davis at Steve Covino, you could see all the ridiculous
photos and videos of us bushwhacken, but the game itself
to And I said, I'm most excited about the player
intros and the first couple innings. I said, do you
know what, Like, that's what I'm most excited about. The
Derby to me is the that's the pinnacle.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
It's honor, it's special.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
You want to be there, Your heroes are all together,
the camaraderie, you get to see everybody in one game compete,
it's beautiful. The All Star game is great, yeah, but
the Home Run Derby is just a spectacle.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
It's an event.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
It's fun, it's exciting, and there's nothing like seeing these
dudes just tee.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Off and hit bombs moonshots.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
I would say, moonshot all night, moonshot, O'Neil cruise, moonshot,
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
While while rally.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
While kel rally won, I think the swing I was
most impressed by, where I was like, I've seen this
guy play a lot, but watching him just tee off
O'Neil Cruz, that swing is just something to marvel at.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
It is in like there's extra pop coming off that
dude's bat.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
And I thought Rich was gonna sayil.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Oh, we're gonna get to that. We're gonna get to
that guy.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
But the feeling of now, Rich and I have never
caught a foul ball or a home run out of
all the games and derbies we've been to. Never yesterday
two balls came right at us, literally one seat behind us,
literally one seat in front of us. But the feeling
of that ball coming at you, it's like a very
(08:28):
intimidating feeling because this is up there forever and you
feel like the chosen one of fifty five thousand people.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Like, oh my god, it's coming here now.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
And YouTube Jabroni's had the big oversize oh yeah, gloves,
Oh Covino. At least in the photos I saw you,
Cove oh holding the big blue promotional glove they were
giving away that Mostly you see the little kids holding Yeah,
but here's Covino and you still couldn't catch the ball
on me.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
You're absolutely right, but one came closer to Rich than
it did to me, and he said, he'll tell you
shicken down. There was part of me because so the
one in front of me, someone in the row in
front of us call one.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
It was too shallow. There's no way I could have
got it. The one that the guy called right behind me.
I second guessed.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I'm like, if I would have jumped, I think I
could have got a hand on it. But then I'm like,
everyone's going at each other. If I jump, someone's gonna
body check me and I'm gonna go over a chair
because because I'll be honest, I was like, if I
reached up, no, but I would have had to like
but stent. If you've ever caught a home run, I'm
sure people listening have feels like it feels like a meteor.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Is falling out of the sky and it's like what what?
Oh what.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
It's the weirdest feeling ever, because you're looking up at
the night sky and all you see is this ball
coming and like everybody else phases you and that ball
and you're like floating towards it and it's coming down
to you and you're like, oh no, it's the craziest
feeling ever. We came so close, but then it lands.
The guy behind us one time right up lost his mind.
(10:02):
He lost his mind. I thought this guy was joking, Denny,
but he was having almost like an out of body experience,
like he was so like baffled that he caught a ball.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
I thought he was honestly bs and it was like
he was goofing faint.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah, because he was screaming in pure excitement. And guys,
if you want to see our pure joy at his finest,
like truly, the the kid in side comes out just again,
check our social media at Covino and Rich, even at
Fox Sports Radio. You could see all the clips of
us just losing our minds at the home run derby
because it is that fun to be there. Yeah, and
(10:39):
I highly suggest to meet us in Philly next year
and then Chicago after Oh damn, okay, next year's Philly,
huh Yeah, and that's our plans.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
So again, we're Covino and Rich. We had a blast.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
We're excited for the game tonight, but let's get into this.
Congratulations to cal Raleigh, Seattle Mariners catcher, the big dumper
hitting big bombs last night. I mean, you knew it
was gonna happen because I mean, not only not only
did McAfee start the home run Derby by saying the
guy with the sweetest ass in baseball, Cal Rawley, not
(11:16):
only did you know he came into the derby as
the biggest name in it. I mean he only got
there by zero point ninety six inches, not even an inch.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Didn't you lose a spring break contest by that same
march remember back?
Speaker 2 (11:31):
No, but I was gonna say he came in as
the biggest name in the favor to win. He's the
home run League leader right now, the only guy giving
Aaron Judge a run for the MVP.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
And not only that, he had a premonition.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Dude, have you seen that great video circulating on TikTok
and Instagram where then, this is the cool part about
these athletes being so young, their lives had been recorded
since their babies, because these kids were all born in the.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Two thousands or late nineties.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
So you're looking at a dude who his parents have
video of him saying.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
I'm gonna be a home run chap one day.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
And that's just another layer to the story, and what
makes it beautiful, it's watching his kid's childhood dream come true.
And it was a family affair, as they said over
and over again. If you didn't know it, Cal Rowley's
dad was pitching to him, and you got to think
of all those days and years he was pitching to
his kid in the backyard and working for this moment,
(12:28):
and Cal's little brother was catching. And when I see
a little brother, the kid was a monster. But he
was fifteen years old. And they kept saying that he
may have been the MVP of the event because he
was really hyping his brother up the whole time, coaching
him along the way, hyping up the dad like we
got it, like, just really getting everybody involved in the moment.
(12:51):
And again, what a what a amount of pressure for
a fifteen year old kid to be a part of
a Major League baseball home run derby.
Speaker 5 (12:59):
That's all.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
That was one of the most memorable moments when the
time was running out and he got that last swing
off and the catcher you're mentioning kid pops up. Dad
turns around and they're all watching it barely.
Speaker 5 (13:12):
Clear the fence.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Oh yeah, barely.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
They all celebrate together. That was one of the great moments.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
It was a night of inches because again cal Raley
only qualified because he beat Brent Rooker of the A's
by zero point ninety six inches as far as distance,
because it came down to they both tied at seventeen How.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Do you know?
Speaker 3 (13:32):
That's how how do you know?
Speaker 2 (13:34):
And that's the difference between the robots No zero point
zero eight feet again because they both hit a four
hundred and seventy foot bomb, but cal Raley's was a
little bit further and like danyg said, he barely cleared
the fence, says at Home Run Derby says who that?
Speaker 3 (13:53):
Says Elias of the I mean Sports Bureau. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
So, I mean, let's we all rally family. We all
wanted cal Raley no offense to Rooker, But.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
How do you measure that? Come on, well, it.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Just adds to his magical season? How much does it add?
We're going to debate that later on, but these are
our observations. What were you yours?
Speaker 3 (14:17):
What made you go? Hmm? From the Home Run Derby
last night? We were there.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
We're gonna tell you everything we experienced again eight seven
seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven ninety nine
on Fox, We're live from All Star Village. You never
know who's gonna stop by, but we do want to
hear from you. And like I said before, not only
is baseball getting it right and marketing their young superstars
and everyone's pumped about it, as we've been saying baseball's popping,
(14:45):
but the major market teams really had no impact yesterday.
Speaker 5 (14:49):
Yeap.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
When you think about who had impact, it wasn't the Dodgers,
It wasn't the Giants, it wasn't the Red Sox. It
definitely wasn't the Yankees. With Chaz Chisholm's three home runs,
what a stinker he put up. It was all small
market teams, the Nationals, the Twins, the Pirates, Camin Arrow
with the Tampa Bay Rays, Rooker with the A's. So
(15:11):
it's like all these young superstars from mid to small
market teams that were really stepping up. And it goes
to show you, like, man, there's a lot of stars
in baseball. Well, you're an American League East fan because
you're a Yankee, dude, there's a lot of people that
are like Junior Kevin Arrow, who that might've been their
first look at this. Dude, if you're not a diehard
baseball fan, you might have not even have heard of Junior.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Put up a great fight in a great night.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
But you know what it shows you rich when you
think of all these young names that are hitting moonshots
and putting on this event last night. The MLB is
setting up to be great for like the next ten years. Yeah,
like seriously, so we could ride this train and enjoy
it for at least another ten years because all these
dudes are so young, and we just hope that more
(15:57):
continue to come up and they influenced more young players
to continue playing baseball. Because these young dudes are really delivering.
It's fun to watch. Count Raley's just another name to
add to the list, Like, dude, what a show he
put on. Congrats again to his family. It was a
very special night. We were just honored to be there.
I think one of my observations one of the things
that made me go hmm last night at the home
(16:20):
run derby, I think Major League Baseball got it right,
meaning they figured out how to do the derby. Every
year or so, every sport out there changes rules. They
changed the rules for a slam dunk contest or a
three point shootout.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
There was like the magic ball or the Golden ticket
or ball.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Major League Baseball remember it's been outs, it's been timed,
it's been there's been golden balls at count for more.
I love the three minutes with a timeout reseting after
the first round because remember there were years where like
two guys faced off in the first ron and then
had the highest score and one of them was out.
(17:02):
I love the fact that all eight guys went top
four of the eight move on receding three minutes leave
your hairline out of one time.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Out, and I thought it was the right way to
do it.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
And and the bonus three outs on timed three outs
with the extra out if you hit a ball certain distance.
I think, as far as the rules go, it moved
and it was fair.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Yes, as far as the rules go, Baseball has it
right coverage wise. The only complaint I was seeing all
over social media last night is people don't like the
way ESPN split the screen.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I saw that now again that was after the fact,
and I was going through social media watching all of
our clips of us clowning out in the outfield. A
lot of people were buzzing about, like, come on with that.
The split screen was not the vibe last night. But
congrats again to well first off, Like you said, Rich,
Junior Camenaro of the Twins hit fifteen in the finals,
(18:05):
only to come up short to cal Raley, who was
just hitting bombs.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
And again, props to his family.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
But your observations, your thoughts, feel free to share him.
I do gotta say that, jas Chisholm. I think he's
just making excuses right now. He said he didn't want
to mess up his swing.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
He don't do the Derby putts.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
He said he's not worried about it. He had three
home runs and thirty eight swings. As a Yankees fan,
I almost wanted to put a bag on my head
an embarrassment. Can I tell you it's really funny. But
he said he didn't care. But I mean, you're human
and you're a competitor. There is no way. I don't
care how confident you are. I don't care how flash
you are, how many home runs you have, because he
(18:48):
does have what seventeen home runs at the All Star break, Yep,
he's an All Star.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
He belongs there. But there's no way he's okay.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
With his By the way I say putts lovingly, Jazz
seems like it seems like a great he's great for
the game. But I mean that's sort of a poor performance.
In fact, truth be told, I didn't see it. One
time during the home run derby, we were in left field.
I had to pick a moment because we Cavino and
I were both starving because we did our show. We
(19:18):
were hanging at the fan fest MLB village batting practice,
you know, doing all the little challenges, went home, recorded
a bunch of stuff for Serious XM. But we realized, like, Yo,
did you eat? I'm starving, so I volunteered. I said,
you keep our seats warm, bro, you stay here, I'll
go get us two drinks and what do you want.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
I went on a little food run.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
By the time it came back, I'm like, Jassism's done
and Kavina looks so like Sam.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
During the week, during one of the breaks, they had
some high school students battle Yo in the derby.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Right now, they're using aluminum bats, but those kids were raking.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
One of the kids hit what eight and nine to
win it, and I was thinking, what's what is Jazz
thinking like when he sees the high school kid hit
the team?
Speaker 2 (20:05):
The kid The kids were teen off that even though
they were using aluminum bats, even with wood bats, those
kids would have hit some bombs because they were they
were strokings. They had one Carter Bro. They be stroking
those kids. Yeah, I don't think people see that on TV.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
Yeah, I think it's just for the stadium.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
They have the two high school kids that are going
for the championship and they have one minute during your
commercial break. One kid hit nine in a minute and
the other kid hit eight and they weren't just clearing
the fence. So aluminum bat, what gives you maybe an
extra fifty feet or so. But these guys are hitting
four hundred.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
It's the reason why rich you think you can hit
a home run in a m.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Which is why the challenge with an illumina bat one
hundred percent. I could hit a hold on, hold on,
hold on pause, yeah, pause, you're so full of yourself.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
Is crazy. I know you could hit myself.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Yes, because you always discredit or undermine the pressure involved
in the moment. You think you hit more bombs than
Jazz chislm. He hit three when the bright lights were on.
So when the pressure's on you, if we really built
up to this moment, yes, you think you're hitting bombs
like there's a lot of pressure.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Aluminum bat.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Okay, but you're forgetting again the pressure of the moment.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
You're immune to it. I guess what Jassism wasn't, But
you are what bat.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
In my mind, I'm like, oh crap, what if I
have warning track power?
Speaker 3 (21:26):
But aluminum bat it gives you an extra fifty feet. Dude.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
You if you play rex softball or baseball and you're
hitting the ball three hundred feet with you, I mean
better than anyone, you sound like a bozo that it's
a rhythm, so you got to catch that rhythm.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
Is the rhythm gonna get you? Are you gonna get
the rhythm?
Speaker 5 (21:42):
Dude?
Speaker 3 (21:44):
I don't know about that. I don't doubt the power.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
The fact that you, as a grown man could hit
one out, I get it. But can you hit it
out when it matters? And in that moment it was
so easy, jazzism would have had more than three in
my rhythm.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
In my mind, it's like.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
It depends on how long you have to Like if
someone said, rich, you have ten swings and that's.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
It, then you're in your head like, oh crap, because
you can't.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
But you're all you're also under a time limit when
when you're competing. So but three minutes though, three minutes
with an illuminum backs fast damn well man. And by
the way, how ironic would it be? I just want
to throw it out there to say I told you
that was gonna happen. How ironic would it be if
Jazz Chism, who stunk it up last night with three
(22:31):
home runs and thirty eight swings? How ironic would it
be if he hit one tonight when it actually mattered
in the game. You know, it's so funny of it.
We know that I was looking at DraftKings, but he
didn't belong there.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
That's truth.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
I was looking at DraftKings before the derby, and Cavino
so adam, He's like, yo, I think Chisholm might pull
the upset tonight, and because we're in the state of George,
I think things might be.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
I don't know what the gambling rules are. I was like, eh,
who cares.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
I was about to put like a hondo on jazz Chism,
because you know, I had a hunch, and I'm like
so glad that that Hunts built for that type of competition.
But I thought he would come through just based on
the way he swings right, yeah, and how he's throwing
seventy percent into his swing just to make good contact,
put goodwood on the ball, but he stunk it up.
(23:20):
Not to take away from the actual winner. Congrats Seattle,
you have a superstar, the first winner from Seattle since
Ken Griffy Junior. When your name's put in that company.
You're having a season and the first catcher, first switch
hitter I believe to ever win the home run derby.
You see that picture, the beautiful picture of cal Raley
(23:41):
as he's winning, was taken by Ken Griffy r So,
which I.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Thought was cool.
Speaker 4 (23:46):
At one point last night everybody stood up, fans of
all different teams and tip their caps.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
It was a cool thing to see.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
Now it is, it's cool. And what a season he's had.
It's a one.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Does that add to his MVP A lore? We'll get
to that later. We have a lot to get to later.
And like I said, you never know who's gonna stop by.

Speaker 3 (26:18):
I'm Cabino and you.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Could hear that my voice is struggling a little bit
because I was screaming like a schoolboy last night. Nothing
gives me more childhood joy, I'm saying this. This is
my quote.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Quote me.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Nothing gives me more childhood joy like the home run Derby.
It's so much fun. I'm a stick in the mud.
I'm sometimes too serious for my own good. When a
home run is coming in my direction, I lose all
cool or sense of sense of anything. I'm just like, ah,
I'll be honest, and I was pushwhacking my heart away
(26:54):
last night. Man, the Pushwhacker boys are back.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
I want to talk about cal Raley and stinking and
the whole Derby button and the kids. We got to
talk about that.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
But not to sound self serving, but honestly, if you
go to our Instagram at Cobine on Rich, there's one
picture in particular on our story I label pure joy
because it just shows that you could be a grown
ass forty year old man and a home run comes
in your direction. It's all star break. It's just so
(27:25):
damn fun. And I'll leave it at that. But Danny,
I'm glad you brought up that kid. His name is
Sam Musterer and he's the son of an official scorekeeper
for the Atlanta Braves. What's his name, Colonel Mustard, Yeah, yeah,
Colonel Musk, Sam Musterer.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Sam Mustard.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
I think while they do tell these kids, no, it's
actually Sam muster Er, they tell the kids stay away
from the wall, don't do this. But you know what,
if I'm that kid, I'm thinking if it I just
made a highlight reel forever, everyone I knows big you'll
do Sam you you Kevin air over home run and
(28:01):
it counted in the moment he was embarrassed.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
I feel that well. Oh no, I messed up the
home run derby.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
He told the Athletic that he didn't realize where he was.
That he didn't he didn't realize he was so close
to the wall, which happened, Bro, you scaled the wall.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Though it was awesome, Danny, I did notice one thing,
and I know years ago because I did see a
clip emerge on social media. It's like, look at Pete
Alonzo laughing while he just smoked the ball off some
kid's head. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more because there
are like high school kids that cheag the balls. But
(28:38):
sometimes they'll rotate like not to sound sexist, but they'll
rotate in like young girls in the outfield, like maybe
young football players settled down there. Bro was twenty twenty
five to get out of here. But you know what
I mean, Like that'd be like my daughter's eight girls.
It seemed not much older than my daughter, and like.
Speaker 5 (28:56):
I'm trying to make it better because you're a girl dead.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
No, it is scary.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Like I said, moonshots, little kids like if O'Neal Cruz
doesn't get under one enough and he hits a one
hundred and ten mile ex of velocity ball, I'm surprised
more kids are.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Like for real.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
But props to Sam Musterer. He's the seventeen year old
son of a Braves official score.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
That's how he gets his dad.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Got a little like yo, your son sort up or
not at all? No, because they ended up calling it
a home run and he started off the hook and
he's the most popular kid in school now as a result.
That's a bragging right forever. He had a home run
snag at the home run Derby. Props to him. It
was Junior Kamonaro's I think was that the final round
(29:40):
when he hit fifteen.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
It was right at the end ye competition.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
Oh my god, he needed three and he had three outs. Yeah,
that's what it came down to. And one last thing
on the kids, the high school kids and the even
smaller kids shagging the balls in the outfield. There were
MLB executives and employees in the row. Spotty and I
were sitting in and the MLB lady sitting next to me.
She was telling us about how they asked them to
(30:04):
stay pretty much away from the warning track in the wall,
and she's she had her eye on one girl that
was in center field.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
This girl was like a bowling ball. She was pushing other.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
Little kids out of the way, dove and caught a couple.
These MLB employees had their eye on one specific girl
in center field, and that was half their fun was
watching the kids that they let onto the field.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Oh and when you're at this event, we're really trying
to encourage you guys to come and meet with us
next year. Like I said, Philadelphia then Chicago. I'm pretty
sure that's the order we hope to be back. Not
only does MLB get it right and have it right
and have all these young stars that get us excited,
but they're blasting music through the whole event, which I
(30:46):
feel like adds to the fun. It's like you ever
go to a family function or a birthday party and
you go to the cookout and there's no music.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
It's just a gathering without the music.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
It's a party. When you got the music playing. They
were playing heat wave grew. But I wonder players give
their playlist because I know the metallic. I wonder, like,
do cal Rally want metallic? He's a young man. Cal
Ray had Joker in the Thief by wolf Mother playing
in his final round, but he had Country.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
It was so much fun. The atmosphere was electric.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
It was so much fun, and that just adds to it,
the music, the excitement and just everybody having a great time.
We hope you enjoyed it on TV, and we hope
to see you next year. We'll take the rest of
your observations to at eight seven, seven ninety nine on
Fox Covino and.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
Rich In for Dan Patrick.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Now, I said it before, but I'll say one more time.
That video of him as a kid saying I'm gonna
be the home run champion.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
And the fact that he was a little dumper.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
That's what he was, a baby dumper, baby dump. When
you see videos like that, and I said it before,
We're gonna see more and more and more and more
of that, because kids, Danny g your son co is
what two You and Brenda, your wife, have one, maybe
fifty thousand photos and videos of him.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Meanwhile, there might be years of your life that you
have ten photos.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Oh, yeah, as a child. I have three pictures of
myself when I was a baby.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Yeah, three, three baby photos.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
There's easily twenty thousand pictures, and one of.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Them's a bugshot, which is weird. I don't know what
Danny did. And kindergarten, he was stilling gray crackers. He
was still in animal cookies. But I think it's interesting
that we are gonna start to see more and more
athletes like here's their childhood video of them taking batting
practice with their dad when they're five, and it's gonna
be like iPhone footage because we forget that some of
(32:36):
these young dudes, they're all born in the two thousands
for the most part. You know, anythink this does too
to wrap it up, because we do want to talk
about what you would give up for your team to win.
We mentioned cal Rolly, he wins, he beats Junior Camonaro,
so Seattle Mariner beats a twin, but you had the Nats,
represented Pirates, Tampa Bay, the A's. How do these other
(32:58):
superstars household names, superstars like Aaron Judge and Pete Alonzo,
a former winner, how do they.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
Sit there and watch this? I know they're probably happy
for the young guys.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
But as a competitor, you have to imagine that Pete
Alonzo has a little bit.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Of fomo not participating. No, he's won that title.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
No, maybe it lights a fire for people to participate
more and get involved again. You can't have jazz chishms
out there without Aaron Judge participating because if I know
they've been there, done that.
Speaker 5 (33:27):
No.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
No, But I'm saying like it would be like.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Me saying, Yo, Cavino, tonight, we're gonna go out to
a magic city I don't know, we go to have
for dinner, and then you say, no, bro, I'm gonna
stay home in my room.
Speaker 3 (33:38):
You made your choice. You could have come. Aaron Judge
doesn't exist.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
It does, but you never like called out of something
and then regretted it. But I'm saying fomo exists usually
when fear missing out fomo when your buddies go out,
your wife is doing something and you're like, oh, man,
I couldn't go. I was caught at work, or I
had to watch my kids show. Al TONI, Mookie Bets,
Aaron Judge, Pete Alonzo, all these guys had every opportunity
(34:07):
to participate in fact, they would have absolutely taken the
place other junior or a Brooker or one of these
younger dudes. Absolutely, So you can't say, man, they're sitting
back watching and they're bumped. They had every chance and
they just didn't want to do it. Well, I think
there's I think you know what it is. It's like
I think Pete Alonzo probably was kicking himself in the
(34:29):
nards thinking I might have won. If I would have participated,
I would have took the home that sweet team Mobile
trophy and that chain. That chain was next level. Did
you see it?
Speaker 3 (34:38):
It was dope.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
Not only did I see it?
Speaker 4 (34:40):
Did you guys see the stats on what kind of
jewels were used?
Speaker 3 (34:45):
I saw it.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
It looked impressive, and they showed a video of them
making it and everything. It looked really cool. And believe me,
like these are bragging rights. And I do, I hate
to say it, I do think that winning it will
add to cal Raley's MVP he chances, even though I
think it shouldn't. So as a competitor and as a
guy who won it, I think Peter A. Lonzo probably
(35:07):
is thinking, man, I probably should have did it. Dude, everybody,
he's human everybody has those feelings. You call out of
work or you call out on a party because your
toe hurts and you're not feeling good.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
You feel bad about it later on, like I could
have went. You don't think that.
Speaker 2 (35:21):
Guy could have is saying, man, I could have participated
in won, could have done it maybe, but I think
he lights a fire for more competition in the future.
Congrats again to everybody. We hope you enjoyed it. And
again next, we're gonna talk Brock Purty and Jaron Duran
because they have something in common Red Sox Jaron Duran,
(35:43):
and it has to do with what they'd be willing
to do if they won it all. If they want
it all, So what would you be willing to do
or give up if it meant your team winning it all.
It's a question that means more to people whose team
has never won.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
So we'll break that down next.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Covino Rich live from Atlanta All Star Village and for
the Great Dan Patrick.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAP.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
All right, we are live from MLB All Star village
in hot Atlanta.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
I really was. I'm lucky.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Besides, it's all the excitement that we described For the
past hour at their home run derby.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
We were sweltering. It was hot and human and sticky.
Bat wing duck man, batwing dun Yo.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Can I get props to uh truest with a braves play?
Not that expensive compared to other stadiums and food. I
thought you're gonna say, beautiful ballpark. I mean it was
a beautiful ball players. It was my first time there.
I was impressed. It's a nice park. But they have
a Chick fil A inside the stadium. I was expecting
(36:56):
a chicken sandwich would be like fifteen twenty bucks because
it's a stadium. It's like nine bucks, which is like
the same price almost outside the stadium. What are you
trying to say, I owe you nine bucks? No, I
mean I got you. By the way, though I got
comno hot dog. It was like five bucks. So remember, Danny,
you give us that list of like stadiums that were
less expensive.
Speaker 3 (37:15):
Yeah, Atlanta brings it, so I'll give him that.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
It's the ultimate baseball hot spot here in Atlanta. Buddy,
you could be part of the excent me here at
Capitol one All Star Village through today. Head to the
Cobb Gallery of for Baseball Fun, live entertainment, and interactive
games by tickets today at Allstar game dot com. We're
pumped for the game tonight, but had a great time
last night, as we've told you over and over and
(37:39):
over again. Now to wrap up everything for now, Like
I said, I think the competitive nature comes out. Not
only do they want to win for the title, for
the glory, but the prize and the trophy and.
Speaker 3 (37:51):
That chain, now that means something.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
It's fourteen carrot gold, fifty carrots on this, bad boy,
says Derby Champ. Look at that thing, dude, seven hundred
and fifteen diamonds on this.
Speaker 4 (38:10):
Yeah, they honored Hank Aaron by having seven hundred and
fifteen diamonds. And then did you see the rubies three
hundred and twenty genuine natural Burmese rubies.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
Thousand carrot natural crystal courts Baseball Georgia State stone is
in this thing.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
But it was an.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
Impressive chain, A little waste. Give the guy the million dollars.
You're a guy that doesn't wear a chain or jewelry
or anything flashy. Ever, I'm not mistering for guys like jazzism,
guys in the big leagues, Guys with some swag, you know,
guys not like you want that as part of the victory.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
You think, you think, yes, you can't.
Speaker 5 (38:46):
See him on the big screen afterwards.
Speaker 4 (38:48):
Yeah, that chain Richie loved exactly.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
Rich which wears like generic sneakers? You think Rich cares
about a chain.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
I'm wearing nothing like you know what I'm saying. How
are you gonna downplay? Like, yes, we'll dude wearing nicely.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
I've put those bad boys away. They stink anyway.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
Yeah, Rich is wearing a Nike pandas so anyway is
Cavino and Rich in for Dan Patrick. And we're excited
about the game tonight, but we're halfway there. We're excited
about the season. So we ask you Fox Sports Radio Nation,
Dan Patrick, Nation, Dan AT's everybody hanging out with us,
what would you give up if it meant your team
(39:26):
could win it all?
Speaker 3 (39:28):
Now? Rich already said it before. It kind of matters
more if your team hasn't won in a long time
or wherever for that matter.
Speaker 2 (39:34):
Like if you're a Dodgers fan, to be like, what
would you give up for a world series like I
don't know, like nothing you.
Speaker 5 (39:40):
Won last year?
Speaker 3 (39:40):
You could? You could?
Speaker 2 (39:42):
The stakes are not the same, like I mean, unless
you're super diehard wack adoodle before before twenty sixteen. Ask
a cub fan this before two thousand and four. Ask
a Red Sox fan this, and you might get a
different answer. Ask a New York Jets fan what would
you do for a Super Bowl? Better yet a Cleveland
Browns fan. The answers are going to vary based on
(40:04):
I'm gonna ask Spot what he would do for a
Klondike bar?
Speaker 3 (40:07):
What would you do? Spot? What would you do? He's
thinking about it.
Speaker 2 (40:10):
But there's two related stories as to why we even
bring this up. One of them involves your boy brock Party.
Now behind the scenes when we're doing our show. Yeah,
and we're just sitting there bantering, but we drift off.
We start looking at the monitors. We have TV screens
all throwing out the Fox Sports Radio studios in LA.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
I remember seeing this clip. I forget.
Speaker 2 (40:28):
I want to give credit to the show. But your
boy Brock Perty's sitting there like a little school boy.
He looks like he's fifteen years old being interviewed on
some he was on Bust with the Boys. Was it
Busting with the Boys. He's on some show and I
see the little caption come up and it says I
would do prison time if it meant winning a super Bowl.
He said he would spend one year in jail. He
would give up one year of his life in prison
(40:51):
for his Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (40:52):
Well, how tired of? What type of prision is this? Yeah? Exactly,
I think that matters.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
And Sharon Durant of the Red Sox also said he'd
give up some stuff. I'll tell you all about it.
But what would you give up if it meant your
team won at all?
Speaker 3 (41:03):
Yeah? I have a I have a dirty layer to
this question. And we'll get to next.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
Covin on rich In for Dan Patrick live from Atlanta,
All Star Village.
Speaker 3 (41:12):
Let's go yeah, Yeah, Yeah,
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Yeah, it is our pleasure to fill in for Dan
Patrick on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Covino and Richard, you heard them. We are live from
MLB All Star Village in Atlanta. Let's go.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
It's the ultimate baseball hot spot and you can be
part of the excitement here at Capitol One All Star Village.
Do today, head to the Cobb gallerya for baseball fun,
live entertainment like us and interactive games by tickets today
at All Star game dot Com. So yeah, Covino and
rich are back day two of the Dan Patrick Patrick
(00:39):
It's always great filling in and we're famous.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
What could you say?
Speaker 2 (00:43):
I mean, Idia saw us on TV last night at
the Derby Bushwhacken. I mean, it never gets old. It's
it's a tradition that I will do until I can
bushwhack no longer. Oh man, it is the best thing
we ever started. This tradition started many years ago. Our
goal was just to get on TV like beaves and
(01:04):
butt heead, whether it be whether it be behind a
reporter you know, on the news, or bushwhacking in the stands.
And it's such a thrill. It's the goofiest thing ever.
If you've ever been on the big screen at a ballgame, yeah,
you know, when you're just there and all of a
sudden you're on the big screen, you just lose your mind.
That's how it is when the home run comes into
(01:25):
your direction. So yeah, there's a sense of showmanship because
we're trying to get on TV, but that's just pure elation,
pure excitement and joy. When the ball comes our way.
It's the craziest feeling. And we just know that the
cameras are there, so we might as well bush whack
like Luke and butsch from WHOA from the WWE. And
we got a lot of airtime last night because we
(01:47):
found our way right there in left field. And what
a night. It was electric last night. We got to
tell you all about it. It's up, Danny g what up?
Good morning?
Speaker 4 (01:56):
I think Jerry Wiley on social media he posted this,
He said it best. They got more airtime tonight than
when they were actually on ESPN, And you know what,
I can't disagree.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
He's absolutely right. We had more fun. I'll tell you that.
You know, it was so great last night.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Baseball's really they're really up to something remarkable. They figured
it out, they got superstars. The event was amazing and
again not our first rodeo. This is what like our
tenth maybe home run derby we've ever gone to, and
it was just as exciting, if not more than ever
came down to the wire, small market teams representing so
(02:35):
much to talk about. Well, I was just gonna say,
there's so many angles from last night, but let me
give everyone the quick backstory of bushwhacking and Cavino rech
Just a quick backstory so you know what the heck
we're talking about. So like our first derby way he said,
maybe ten fifteen years ago. Yeah, we decided to tell
our listeners, you guys look out for us tonight. We're
(02:56):
gonna try to get on the derby somehow someway Kavino's
gonna be wearing the pinstripes. It's like a little like
Where's Waldo sort of game, like I think I see you,
I'm gonna rock like my old school Mets Jersey, so
you'll see us together and if we think the cameras
on us, we'll start doing the bushwhack. Remember the old
WWE wrestlers yay, and we did it one year and
(03:18):
then the next you were like, let's do it again,
And like Cavino said, it became more fun to try
to unintentionally get on TV than when we're intentionally on
TV or broadcast. Not only a thrill for us, and
it's a double thrill, the thrill of the home run
ball coming in your direction and you're there sharing in
the moment with the crowd, but the thrill of knowing
(03:39):
that all your friends and listeners are going to see
you on TV.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
So it's so funny and.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I don't know how to dec I don't know how
to describe it because it sounds ridiculous because not to brag,
we've had TV shows on different networks, different you know,
things we've streamed, but sounds when you are unintentionally on
TV light there there there's more of a joint. Like
Danny g one time I went with my wife to
a taping of The Bachelor after the final rows and
(04:07):
they pand it on me and my wife like clapping.
More people hit me up for that than anything I've
ever done on my own, So I think I think
people love to see someone they know at like I
guess you would say, like a unique event or something right.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
So last night home run derby. I will say this.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
We go to the derby with our credential, we have
our press pass, we don't have an actual seat. So
I say, Covino follow me, and I just sort of
go to left field, walk down the aisle and I'm like,
all right, I see some empty seats and like the
(04:51):
fourth or fifth row in left field, I'm gonna sit
there until someone tells us to move. And guess what,
Danny g whatever, No one ever came, nobody ever told
us to move.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
You know, it helped that the two guys you chose
to sit next to were wearing bright neon colored shirt.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Not only that, bro, it's such a small world that
the guy we were sitting next to is like from
the same hometown as Rich, in the same area.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
He goes, yeah, let's go Mets.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
And he had a Met shirt on underneath his yellow
Neon shirt. And he goes, yeah, I went to I
went to Swanka High School in Long Island. I go, dude,
I went I went to his competing high school. Like
we lived five minutes. You went to Franklin Square Carry
Carry High And Rich was like yeah, so again, like
what a coincident dance? How Random is that you have
(05:42):
to realize Rich is from a small part of Long Island.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Random High School. We're in Atlanta.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
We're in Atlanta, and they were welcoming of us to
be there, and yeah, it was easy to spot us
because we're sitting next to two dudes in Neon green shirts.
And what an excite event. We've said it every year
and every time we're still coming off that high and
all the feedback because people are like, dude.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I saw you a million times. It was hilarious.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
But it is the greatest sporting event out of all
four major sports. We're not saying World Series, Stanley copp
NBA Finals. We're saying, like, as far as events, it's
the most exciting, or the Super.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Bowl exhibition, it's the best exhibition.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Yeah, by far, the best, most fun you're gonna have.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
If you have buddies you want to have fun with,
if you have kids you want.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
To build memories with, this is the event to go to.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
It surpasses the All Star Game, I think by a
mile in my opinion that.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
That's how much fun it is. Guys like, I'm excited
to go.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
I'm excited to go to the game tonight, but I
told Kevino tonight, and we're gonna get to the derby
in a second.
Speaker 3 (06:49):
Just our observations.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
If you go to at Covine on Rich at Rich
Davis at Steve Covino, you could see all the ridiculous
photos and videos of us bushwhacken, but the game itself
to And I said, I'm most excited about the player
intros and the first couple innings. I said, do you
know what, Like, that's what I'm most excited about. The
Derby to me is the that's the pinnacle.
Speaker 3 (07:13):
It's honor, it's special.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
You want to be there, Your heroes are all together,
the camaraderie, you get to see everybody in one game compete,
it's beautiful. The All Star game is great, yeah, but
the Home Run Derby is just a spectacle.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
It's an event.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
It's fun, it's exciting, and there's nothing like seeing these
dudes just tee.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
Off and hit bombs moonshots.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
I would say, moonshot all night, moonshot, O'Neil cruise, moonshot,
Oh my god.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
While while rally.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
While kel rally won, I think the swing I was
most impressed by, where I was like, I've seen this
guy play a lot, but watching him just tee off
O'Neil Cruz, that swing is just something to marvel at.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
It is in like there's extra pop coming off that
dude's bat.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
And I thought Rich was gonna sayil.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Oh, we're gonna get to that. We're gonna get to
that guy.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
But the feeling of now, Rich and I have never
caught a foul ball or a home run out of
all the games and derbies we've been to. Never yesterday
two balls came right at us, literally one seat behind us,
literally one seat in front of us. But the feeling
of that ball coming at you, it's like a very
(08:28):
intimidating feeling because this is up there forever and you
feel like the chosen one of fifty five thousand people.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Like, oh my god, it's coming here now.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
And YouTube Jabroni's had the big oversize oh yeah, gloves,
Oh Covino. At least in the photos I saw you,
Cove oh holding the big blue promotional glove they were
giving away that Mostly you see the little kids holding Yeah,
but here's Covino and you still couldn't catch the ball
on me.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
You're absolutely right, but one came closer to Rich than
it did to me, and he said, he'll tell you
shicken down. There was part of me because so the
one in front of me, someone in the row in
front of us call one.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
It was too shallow. There's no way I could have
got it. The one that the guy called right behind me.
I second guessed.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I'm like, if I would have jumped, I think I
could have got a hand on it. But then I'm like,
everyone's going at each other. If I jump, someone's gonna
body check me and I'm gonna go over a chair
because because I'll be honest, I was like, if I
reached up, no, but I would have had to like
but stent. If you've ever caught a home run, I'm
sure people listening have feels like it feels like a meteor.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Is falling out of the sky and it's like what what?
Oh what.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
It's the weirdest feeling ever, because you're looking up at
the night sky and all you see is this ball
coming and like everybody else phases you and that ball
and you're like floating towards it and it's coming down
to you and you're like, oh no, it's the craziest
feeling ever. We came so close, but then it lands.
The guy behind us one time right up lost his mind.
(10:02):
He lost his mind. I thought this guy was joking, Denny,
but he was having almost like an out of body experience,
like he was so like baffled that he caught a ball.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
I thought he was honestly bs and it was like
he was goofing faint.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah, because he was screaming in pure excitement. And guys,
if you want to see our pure joy at his finest,
like truly, the the kid in side comes out just again,
check our social media at Covino and Rich, even at
Fox Sports Radio. You could see all the clips of
us just losing our minds at the home run derby
because it is that fun to be there. Yeah, and
(10:39):
I highly suggest to meet us in Philly next year
and then Chicago after Oh damn, okay, next year's Philly,
huh Yeah, and that's our plans.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
So again, we're Covino and Rich. We had a blast.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
We're excited for the game tonight, but let's get into this.
Congratulations to cal Raleigh, Seattle Mariners catcher, the big dumper
hitting big bombs last night. I mean, you knew it
was gonna happen because I mean, not only not only
did McAfee start the home run Derby by saying the
guy with the sweetest ass in baseball, Cal Rawley, not
(11:16):
only did you know he came into the derby as
the biggest name in it. I mean he only got
there by zero point ninety six inches, not even an inch.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
Didn't you lose a spring break contest by that same
march remember back?
Speaker 2 (11:31):
No, but I was gonna say he came in as
the biggest name in the favor to win. He's the
home run League leader right now, the only guy giving
Aaron Judge a run for the MVP.
Speaker 3 (11:41):
And not only that, he had a premonition.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Dude, have you seen that great video circulating on TikTok
and Instagram where then, this is the cool part about
these athletes being so young, their lives had been recorded
since their babies, because these kids were all born in the.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
Two thousands or late nineties.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
So you're looking at a dude who his parents have
video of him saying.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
I'm gonna be a home run chap one day.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
And that's just another layer to the story, and what
makes it beautiful, it's watching his kid's childhood dream come true.
And it was a family affair, as they said over
and over again. If you didn't know it, Cal Rowley's
dad was pitching to him, and you got to think
of all those days and years he was pitching to
his kid in the backyard and working for this moment,
(12:28):
and Cal's little brother was catching. And when I see
a little brother, the kid was a monster. But he
was fifteen years old. And they kept saying that he
may have been the MVP of the event because he
was really hyping his brother up the whole time, coaching
him along the way, hyping up the dad like we
got it, like, just really getting everybody involved in the moment.
(12:51):
And again, what a what a amount of pressure for
a fifteen year old kid to be a part of
a Major League baseball home run derby.
Speaker 5 (12:59):
That's all.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
That was one of the most memorable moments when the
time was running out and he got that last swing
off and the catcher you're mentioning kid pops up. Dad
turns around and they're all watching it barely.
Speaker 5 (13:12):
Clear the fence.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Oh yeah, barely.
Speaker 5 (13:14):
They all celebrate together. That was one of the great moments.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
It was a night of inches because again cal Raley
only qualified because he beat Brent Rooker of the A's
by zero point ninety six inches as far as distance,
because it came down to they both tied at seventeen How.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
Do you know?
Speaker 3 (13:32):
That's how how do you know?
Speaker 2 (13:34):
And that's the difference between the robots No zero point
zero eight feet again because they both hit a four
hundred and seventy foot bomb, but cal Raley's was a
little bit further and like danyg said, he barely cleared
the fence, says at Home Run Derby says who that?
Speaker 3 (13:53):
Says Elias of the I mean Sports Bureau. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
So, I mean, let's we all rally family. We all
wanted cal Raley no offense to Rooker, But.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
How do you measure that? Come on, well, it.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
Just adds to his magical season? How much does it add?
We're going to debate that later on, but these are
our observations. What were you yours?
Speaker 3 (14:17):
What made you go? Hmm? From the Home Run Derby
last night? We were there.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
We're gonna tell you everything we experienced again eight seven
seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven ninety nine
on Fox, We're live from All Star Village. You never
know who's gonna stop by, but we do want to
hear from you. And like I said before, not only
is baseball getting it right and marketing their young superstars
and everyone's pumped about it, as we've been saying baseball's popping,
(14:45):
but the major market teams really had no impact yesterday.
Speaker 5 (14:49):
Yeap.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
When you think about who had impact, it wasn't the Dodgers,
It wasn't the Giants, it wasn't the Red Sox. It
definitely wasn't the Yankees. With Chaz Chisholm's three home runs,
what a stinker he put up. It was all small
market teams, the Nationals, the Twins, the Pirates, Camin Arrow
with the Tampa Bay Rays, Rooker with the A's. So
(15:11):
it's like all these young superstars from mid to small
market teams that were really stepping up. And it goes
to show you, like, man, there's a lot of stars
in baseball. Well, you're an American League East fan because
you're a Yankee, dude, there's a lot of people that
are like Junior Kevin Arrow, who that might've been their
first look at this. Dude, if you're not a diehard
baseball fan, you might have not even have heard of Junior.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Put up a great fight in a great night.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
But you know what it shows you rich when you
think of all these young names that are hitting moonshots
and putting on this event last night. The MLB is
setting up to be great for like the next ten years. Yeah,
like seriously, so we could ride this train and enjoy
it for at least another ten years because all these
dudes are so young, and we just hope that more
(15:57):
continue to come up and they influenced more young players
to continue playing baseball. Because these young dudes are really delivering.
It's fun to watch. Count Raley's just another name to
add to the list, Like, dude, what a show he
put on. Congrats again to his family. It was a
very special night. We were just honored to be there.
I think one of my observations one of the things
that made me go hmm last night at the home
(16:20):
run derby, I think Major League Baseball got it right,
meaning they figured out how to do the derby. Every
year or so, every sport out there changes rules. They
changed the rules for a slam dunk contest or a
three point shootout.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
There was like the magic ball or the Golden ticket
or ball.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Major League Baseball remember it's been outs, it's been timed,
it's been there's been golden balls at count for more.
I love the three minutes with a timeout reseting after
the first round because remember there were years where like
two guys faced off in the first ron and then
had the highest score and one of them was out.
(17:02):
I love the fact that all eight guys went top
four of the eight move on receding three minutes leave
your hairline out of one time.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Out, and I thought it was the right way to
do it.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
And and the bonus three outs on timed three outs
with the extra out if you hit a ball certain distance.
I think, as far as the rules go, it moved
and it was fair.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Yes, as far as the rules go, Baseball has it
right coverage wise. The only complaint I was seeing all
over social media last night is people don't like the
way ESPN split the screen.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
I saw that now again that was after the fact,
and I was going through social media watching all of
our clips of us clowning out in the outfield. A
lot of people were buzzing about, like, come on with that.
The split screen was not the vibe last night. But
congrats again to well first off, Like you said, Rich,
Junior Camenaro of the Twins hit fifteen in the finals,
(18:05):
only to come up short to cal Raley, who was
just hitting bombs.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
And again, props to his family.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
But your observations, your thoughts, feel free to share him.
I do gotta say that, jas Chisholm. I think he's
just making excuses right now. He said he didn't want
to mess up his swing.
Speaker 3 (18:25):
He don't do the Derby putts.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
He said he's not worried about it. He had three
home runs and thirty eight swings. As a Yankees fan,
I almost wanted to put a bag on my head
an embarrassment. Can I tell you it's really funny. But
he said he didn't care. But I mean, you're human
and you're a competitor. There is no way. I don't
care how confident you are. I don't care how flash
you are, how many home runs you have, because he
(18:48):
does have what seventeen home runs at the All Star break, Yep,
he's an All Star.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
He belongs there. But there's no way he's okay.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
With his By the way I say putts lovingly, Jazz
seems like it seems like a great he's great for
the game. But I mean that's sort of a poor performance.
In fact, truth be told, I didn't see it. One
time during the home run derby, we were in left field.
I had to pick a moment because we Cavino and
I were both starving because we did our show. We
(19:18):
were hanging at the fan fest MLB village batting practice,
you know, doing all the little challenges, went home, recorded
a bunch of stuff for Serious XM. But we realized, like, Yo,
did you eat? I'm starving, so I volunteered. I said,
you keep our seats warm, bro, you stay here, I'll
go get us two drinks and what do you want.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
I went on a little food run.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
By the time it came back, I'm like, Jassism's done
and Kavina looks so like Sam.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:48):
During the week, during one of the breaks, they had
some high school students battle Yo in the derby.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Right now, they're using aluminum bats, but those kids were raking.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
One of the kids hit what eight and nine to
win it, and I was thinking, what's what is Jazz
thinking like when he sees the high school kid hit
the team?
Speaker 2 (20:05):
The kid The kids were teen off that even though
they were using aluminum bats, even with wood bats, those
kids would have hit some bombs because they were they
were strokings. They had one Carter Bro. They be stroking
those kids. Yeah, I don't think people see that on TV.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
Yeah, I think it's just for the stadium.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
They have the two high school kids that are going
for the championship and they have one minute during your
commercial break. One kid hit nine in a minute and
the other kid hit eight and they weren't just clearing
the fence. So aluminum bat, what gives you maybe an
extra fifty feet or so. But these guys are hitting
four hundred.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
It's the reason why rich you think you can hit
a home run in a m.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Which is why the challenge with an illumina bat one
hundred percent. I could hit a hold on, hold on,
hold on pause, yeah, pause, you're so full of yourself.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
Is crazy. I know you could hit myself.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Yes, because you always discredit or undermine the pressure involved
in the moment. You think you hit more bombs than
Jazz chislm. He hit three when the bright lights were on.
So when the pressure's on you, if we really built
up to this moment, yes, you think you're hitting bombs
like there's a lot of pressure.
Speaker 3 (21:13):
Aluminum bat.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Okay, but you're forgetting again the pressure of the moment.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
You're immune to it. I guess what Jassism wasn't, But
you are what bat.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
In my mind, I'm like, oh crap, what if I
have warning track power?
Speaker 3 (21:26):
But aluminum bat it gives you an extra fifty feet. Dude.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
You if you play rex softball or baseball and you're
hitting the ball three hundred feet with you, I mean
better than anyone, you sound like a bozo that it's
a rhythm, so you got to catch that rhythm.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
Is the rhythm gonna get you? Are you gonna get
the rhythm?
Speaker 5 (21:42):
Dude?
Speaker 3 (21:44):
I don't know about that. I don't doubt the power.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
The fact that you, as a grown man could hit
one out, I get it. But can you hit it
out when it matters? And in that moment it was
so easy, jazzism would have had more than three in
my rhythm.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
In my mind, it's like.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
It depends on how long you have to Like if
someone said, rich, you have ten swings and that's.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
It, then you're in your head like, oh crap, because
you can't.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
But you're all you're also under a time limit when
when you're competing. So but three minutes though, three minutes
with an illuminum backs fast damn well man. And by
the way, how ironic would it be? I just want
to throw it out there to say I told you
that was gonna happen. How ironic would it be if
Jazz Chism, who stunk it up last night with three
(22:31):
home runs and thirty eight swings? How ironic would it
be if he hit one tonight when it actually mattered
in the game. You know, it's so funny of it.
We know that I was looking at DraftKings, but he
didn't belong there.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
That's truth.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
I was looking at DraftKings before the derby, and Cavino
so adam, He's like, yo, I think Chisholm might pull
the upset tonight, and because we're in the state of George,
I think things might be.
Speaker 3 (22:53):
I don't know what the gambling rules are. I was like, eh,
who cares.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
I was about to put like a hondo on jazz Chism,
because you know, I had a hunch, and I'm like
so glad that that Hunts built for that type of competition.
But I thought he would come through just based on
the way he swings right, yeah, and how he's throwing
seventy percent into his swing just to make good contact,
put goodwood on the ball, but he stunk it up.
(23:20):
Not to take away from the actual winner. Congrats Seattle,
you have a superstar, the first winner from Seattle since
Ken Griffy Junior. When your name's put in that company.
You're having a season and the first catcher, first switch
hitter I believe to ever win the home run derby.
You see that picture, the beautiful picture of cal Raley
(23:41):
as he's winning, was taken by Ken Griffy r So,
which I.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
Thought was cool.
Speaker 4 (23:46):
At one point last night everybody stood up, fans of
all different teams and tip their caps.
Speaker 5 (23:55):
It was a cool thing to see.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
Now it is, it's cool. And what a season he's had.
It's a one.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
Does that add to his MVP A lore? We'll get
to that later. We have a lot to get to later.
And like I said, you never know who's gonna stop by.
But we had a great time. The pictures prove it,
the video proves it again. Search at Covino and Rich

I'm Cabino and you.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
Could hear that my voice is struggling a little bit
because I was screaming like a schoolboy last night. Nothing
gives me more childhood joy, I'm saying this. This is
my quote.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Quote me.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Nothing gives me more childhood joy like the home run Derby.
It's so much fun. I'm a stick in the mud.
I'm sometimes too serious for my own good. When a
home run is coming in my direction, I lose all
cool or sense of sense of anything. I'm just like, ah,
I'll be honest, and I was pushwhacking my heart away
(26:54):
last night. Man, the Pushwhacker boys are back.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
I want to talk about cal Raley and stinking and
the whole Derby button and the kids. We got to
talk about that.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
But not to sound self serving, but honestly, if you
go to our Instagram at Cobine on Rich, there's one
picture in particular on our story I label pure joy
because it just shows that you could be a grown
ass forty year old man and a home run comes
in your direction. It's all star break. It's just so
(27:25):
damn fun. And I'll leave it at that. But Danny,
I'm glad you brought up that kid. His name is
Sam Musterer and he's the son of an official scorekeeper
for the Atlanta Braves. What's his name, Colonel Mustard, Yeah, yeah,
Colonel Musk, Sam Musterer.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
Sam Mustard.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
I think while they do tell these kids, no, it's
actually Sam muster Er, they tell the kids stay away
from the wall, don't do this. But you know what,
if I'm that kid, I'm thinking if it I just
made a highlight reel forever, everyone I knows big you'll
do Sam you you Kevin air over home run and
(28:01):
it counted in the moment he was embarrassed.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
I feel that well. Oh no, I messed up the
home run derby.
Speaker 4 (28:09):
He told the Athletic that he didn't realize where he was.
That he didn't he didn't realize he was so close
to the wall, which happened, Bro, you scaled the wall.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Though it was awesome, Danny, I did notice one thing,
and I know years ago because I did see a
clip emerge on social media. It's like, look at Pete
Alonzo laughing while he just smoked the ball off some
kid's head. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more because there
are like high school kids that cheag the balls. But
(28:38):
sometimes they'll rotate like not to sound sexist, but they'll
rotate in like young girls in the outfield, like maybe
young football players settled down there. Bro was twenty twenty
five to get out of here. But you know what
I mean, Like that'd be like my daughter's eight girls.
It seemed not much older than my daughter, and like.
Speaker 5 (28:56):
I'm trying to make it better because you're a girl dead.
Speaker 3 (28:58):
No, it is scary.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Like I said, moonshots, little kids like if O'Neal Cruz
doesn't get under one enough and he hits a one
hundred and ten mile ex of velocity ball, I'm surprised
more kids are.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
Like for real.
Speaker 2 (29:12):
But props to Sam Musterer. He's the seventeen year old
son of a Braves official score.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
That's how he gets his dad.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
Got a little like yo, your son sort up or
not at all? No, because they ended up calling it
a home run and he started off the hook and
he's the most popular kid in school now as a result.
That's a bragging right forever. He had a home run
snag at the home run Derby. Props to him. It
was Junior Kamonaro's I think was that the final round
(29:40):
when he hit fifteen.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
It was right at the end ye competition.
Speaker 4 (29:43):
Oh my god, he needed three and he had three outs. Yeah,
that's what it came down to. And one last thing
on the kids, the high school kids and the even
smaller kids shagging the balls in the outfield. There were
MLB executives and employees in the row. Spotty and I
were sitting in and the MLB lady sitting next to me.
She was telling us about how they asked them to
(30:04):
stay pretty much away from the warning track in the wall,
and she's she had her eye on one girl that
was in center field.
Speaker 5 (30:11):
This girl was like a bowling ball. She was pushing other.
Speaker 4 (30:14):
Little kids out of the way, dove and caught a couple.
These MLB employees had their eye on one specific girl
in center field, and that was half their fun was
watching the kids that they let onto the field.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Oh and when you're at this event, we're really trying
to encourage you guys to come and meet with us
next year. Like I said, Philadelphia then Chicago. I'm pretty
sure that's the order we hope to be back. Not
only does MLB get it right and have it right
and have all these young stars that get us excited,
but they're blasting music through the whole event, which I
(30:46):
feel like adds to the fun. It's like you ever
go to a family function or a birthday party and
you go to the cookout and there's no music.
Speaker 3 (30:54):
It's just a gathering without the music.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
It's a party. When you got the music playing. They
were playing heat wave grew. But I wonder players give
their playlist because I know the metallic. I wonder, like,
do cal Rally want metallic? He's a young man. Cal
Ray had Joker in the Thief by wolf Mother playing
in his final round, but he had Country.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
It was so much fun. The atmosphere was electric.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
It was so much fun, and that just adds to it,
the music, the excitement and just everybody having a great time.
We hope you enjoyed it on TV, and we hope
to see you next year. We'll take the rest of
your observations to at eight seven, seven ninety nine on
Fox Covino and.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
Rich In for Dan Patrick.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Now, I said it before, but I'll say one more time.
That video of him as a kid saying I'm gonna
be the home run champion.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
And the fact that he was a little dumper.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
That's what he was, a baby dumper, baby dump. When
you see videos like that, and I said it before,
We're gonna see more and more and more and more
of that, because kids, Danny g your son co is
what two You and Brenda, your wife, have one, maybe
fifty thousand photos and videos of him.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Meanwhile, there might be years of your life that you
have ten photos.
Speaker 5 (32:06):
Oh, yeah, as a child. I have three pictures of
myself when I was a baby.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Yeah, three, three baby photos.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
There's easily twenty thousand pictures, and one of.
Speaker 2 (32:14):
Them's a bugshot, which is weird. I don't know what
Danny did. And kindergarten, he was stilling gray crackers. He
was still in animal cookies. But I think it's interesting
that we are gonna start to see more and more
athletes like here's their childhood video of them taking batting
practice with their dad when they're five, and it's gonna
be like iPhone footage because we forget that some of
(32:36):
these young dudes, they're all born in the two thousands
for the most part. You know, anythink this does too
to wrap it up, because we do want to talk
about what you would give up for your team to win.
We mentioned cal Rolly, he wins, he beats Junior Camonaro,
so Seattle Mariner beats a twin, but you had the Nats,
represented Pirates, Tampa Bay, the A's. How do these other
(32:58):
superstars household names, superstars like Aaron Judge and Pete Alonzo,
a former winner, how do they.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
Sit there and watch this? I know they're probably happy
for the young guys.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
But as a competitor, you have to imagine that Pete
Alonzo has a little bit.
Speaker 3 (33:12):
Of fomo not participating. No, he's won that title.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
No, maybe it lights a fire for people to participate
more and get involved again. You can't have jazz chishms
out there without Aaron Judge participating because if I know
they've been there, done that.
Speaker 5 (33:27):
No.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
No, But I'm saying like it would be like.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
Me saying, Yo, Cavino, tonight, we're gonna go out to
a magic city I don't know, we go to have
for dinner, and then you say, no, bro, I'm gonna
stay home in my room.
Speaker 3 (33:38):
You made your choice. You could have come. Aaron Judge
doesn't exist.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
It does, but you never like called out of something
and then regretted it. But I'm saying fomo exists usually
when fear missing out fomo when your buddies go out,
your wife is doing something and you're like, oh, man,
I couldn't go. I was caught at work, or I
had to watch my kids show. Al TONI, Mookie Bets,
Aaron Judge, Pete Alonzo, all these guys had every opportunity
(34:07):
to participate in fact, they would have absolutely taken the
place other junior or a Brooker or one of these
younger dudes. Absolutely, So you can't say, man, they're sitting
back watching and they're bumped. They had every chance and
they just didn't want to do it. Well, I think
there's I think you know what it is. It's like
I think Pete Alonzo probably was kicking himself in the
(34:29):
nards thinking I might have won. If I would have participated,
I would have took the home that sweet team Mobile
trophy and that chain. That chain was next level. Did
you see it?
Speaker 3 (34:38):
It was dope.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
Not only did I see it?
Speaker 4 (34:40):
Did you guys see the stats on what kind of
jewels were used?
Speaker 3 (34:45):
I saw it.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
It looked impressive, and they showed a video of them
making it and everything. It looked really cool. And believe me,
like these are bragging rights. And I do, I hate
to say it, I do think that winning it will
add to cal Raley's MVP he chances, even though I
think it shouldn't. So as a competitor and as a
guy who won it, I think Peter A. Lonzo probably
(35:07):
is thinking, man, I probably should have did it. Dude, everybody,
he's human everybody has those feelings. You call out of
work or you call out on a party because your
toe hurts and you're not feeling good.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
You feel bad about it later on, like I could
have went. You don't think that.
Speaker 2 (35:21):
Guy could have is saying, man, I could have participated
in won, could have done it maybe, but I think
he lights a fire for more competition in the future.
Congrats again to everybody. We hope you enjoyed it. And
again next, we're gonna talk Brock Purty and Jaron Duran
because they have something in common Red Sox Jaron Duran,
(35:43):
and it has to do with what they'd be willing
to do if they won it all. If they want
it all, So what would you be willing to do
or give up if it meant your team winning it all.
It's a question that means more to people whose team
has never won.
Speaker 3 (36:00):
So we'll break that down next.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
Covino Rich live from Atlanta All Star Village and for
the Great Dan Patrick.
Speaker 1 (36:06):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAP.
Speaker 2 (36:16):
All right, we are live from MLB All Star village
in hot Atlanta.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
I really was. I'm lucky.
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Besides, it's all the excitement that we described For the
past hour at their home run derby.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
We were sweltering. It was hot and human and sticky.
Bat wing duck man, batwing dun Yo.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Can I get props to uh truest with a braves play?
Not that expensive compared to other stadiums and food. I
thought you're gonna say, beautiful ballpark. I mean it was
a beautiful ball players. It was my first time there.
I was impressed. It's a nice park. But they have
a Chick fil A inside the stadium. I was expecting
(36:56):
a chicken sandwich would be like fifteen twenty bucks because
it's a stadium. It's like nine bucks, which is like
the same price almost outside the stadium. What are you
trying to say, I owe you nine bucks? No, I
mean I got you. By the way, though I got
comno hot dog. It was like five bucks. So remember, Danny,
you give us that list of like stadiums that were
less expensive.
Speaker 3 (37:15):
Yeah, Atlanta brings it, so I'll give him that.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
It's the ultimate baseball hot spot here in Atlanta. Buddy,
you could be part of the excent me here at
Capitol one All Star Village through today. Head to the
Cobb Gallery of for Baseball Fun, live entertainment, and interactive
games by tickets today at Allstar game dot com. We're
pumped for the game tonight, but had a great time
last night, as we've told you over and over and
(37:39):
over again. Now to wrap up everything for now, Like
I said, I think the competitive nature comes out. Not
only do they want to win for the title, for
the glory, but the prize and the trophy and.
Speaker 3 (37:51):
That chain, now that means something.
Speaker 2 (37:56):
It's fourteen carrot gold, fifty carrots on this, bad boy,
says Derby Champ. Look at that thing, dude, seven hundred
and fifteen diamonds on this.
Speaker 4 (38:10):
Yeah, they honored Hank Aaron by having seven hundred and
fifteen diamonds. And then did you see the rubies three
hundred and twenty genuine natural Burmese rubies.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
Thousand carrot natural crystal courts Baseball Georgia State stone is
in this thing.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
But it was an.
Speaker 2 (38:25):
Impressive chain, A little waste. Give the guy the million dollars.
You're a guy that doesn't wear a chain or jewelry
or anything flashy. Ever, I'm not mistering for guys like jazzism,
guys in the big leagues, Guys with some swag, you know,
guys not like you want that as part of the victory.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
You think, you think, yes, you can't.
Speaker 5 (38:46):
See him on the big screen afterwards.
Speaker 4 (38:48):
Yeah, that chain Richie loved exactly.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
Rich which wears like generic sneakers? You think Rich cares
about a chain.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
I'm wearing nothing like you know what I'm saying. How
are you gonna downplay? Like, yes, we'll dude wearing nicely.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
I've put those bad boys away. They stink anyway.
Speaker 2 (39:06):
Yeah, Rich is wearing a Nike pandas so anyway is
Cavino and Rich in for Dan Patrick. And we're excited
about the game tonight, but we're halfway there. We're excited
about the season. So we ask you Fox Sports Radio Nation,
Dan Patrick, Nation, Dan AT's everybody hanging out with us,
what would you give up if it meant your team
(39:26):
could win it all?
Speaker 3 (39:28):
Now? Rich already said it before. It kind of matters
more if your team hasn't won in a long time
or wherever for that matter.
Speaker 2 (39:34):
Like if you're a Dodgers fan, to be like, what
would you give up for a world series like I
don't know, like nothing you.
Speaker 5 (39:40):
Won last year?
Speaker 3 (39:40):
You could? You could?
Speaker 2 (39:42):
The stakes are not the same, like I mean, unless
you're super diehard wack adoodle before before twenty sixteen. Ask
a cub fan this before two thousand and four. Ask
a Red Sox fan this, and you might get a
different answer. Ask a New York Jets fan what would
you do for a Super Bowl? Better yet a Cleveland
Browns fan. The answers are going to vary based on
(40:04):
I'm gonna ask Spot what he would do for a
Klondike bar?
Speaker 3 (40:07):
What would you do? Spot? What would you do? He's
thinking about it.
Speaker 2 (40:10):
But there's two related stories as to why we even
bring this up. One of them involves your boy brock Party.
Now behind the scenes when we're doing our show. Yeah,
and we're just sitting there bantering, but we drift off.
We start looking at the monitors. We have TV screens
all throwing out the Fox Sports Radio studios in LA.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
I remember seeing this clip. I forget.
Speaker 2 (40:28):
I want to give credit to the show. But your
boy Brock Perty's sitting there like a little school boy.
He looks like he's fifteen years old being interviewed on
some he was on Bust with the Boys. Was it
Busting with the Boys. He's on some show and I
see the little caption come up and it says I
would do prison time if it meant winning a super Bowl.
He said he would spend one year in jail. He
would give up one year of his life in prison
(40:51):
for his Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (40:52):
Well, how tired of? What type of prision is this? Yeah? Exactly,
I think that matters.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
And Sharon Durant of the Red Sox also said he'd
give up some stuff. I'll tell you all about it.
But what would you give up if it meant your
team won at all?
Speaker 3 (41:03):
Yeah? I have a I have a dirty layer to
this question. And we'll get to next.
Speaker 2 (41:07):
Covin on rich In for Dan Patrick live from Atlanta,
