You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Final Hour in this Wednesday Dan and The Dane's Dan
Patrick Show. Glad to have you on board. We have
touched on a variety of topics today. Coming up, we'll
talk to the Nation League All Star manager Tory Lavello,
who joined us last week when he told Paul Skeins
that he would be the starter for the National League.
So we'll talk to Tory. The American League beat the
National League and Jaron Duran wins the MVP. He plays

(00:29):
for the Red Sox as he hit a two run
homer in the fifth inning. The American League has won
ten of the last eleven All Star Games. Show Heyo
Tani the third inning home run, first Dodger to hit
a home run in an All Star Game since.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
Marvin Mike Piazza, Blue Blue Blue.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Okay, all right, pretty good, pretty good? How about this one?

Speaker 5 (01:00):
Show? Hey?

Speaker 2 (01:01):
Utani is the first Japanese born player to hit a
home run in the All Star Game over the fence.
The only other All Star Game home run by a
Japanese born player was.

Speaker 4 (01:17):
Paul each Row Each zero two thousand and seven inside
the Boy of the Day of the day stat of the.

Speaker 6 (01:27):
Day, Here comes, here comes that?

Speaker 4 (01:30):
What stat of the name?

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Stat of the day brought to you by Panini America,
the official trading cards of this program. The Olympics return
live from Paris on NBC in Peacock starting July twenty sixth.
How many inside the park home runs have there been
in All Star Game history? I only know of each
e ro. I don't know if I remember another inside

(01:58):
the park home run.

Speaker 7 (01:59):
It's got to be the most rare thing in almost
all of sport.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
Yes, I would think so.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
All right, So USA men's basketball team facing Serbia that's
coming up in about an hour from now. Team USA
is a big favorite fifteen points. Serbia has some big men.
I don't know if they have any guard play there.
The Open Championship begins tomorrow at Royal Troon Seaton Pole.

Speaker 4 (02:25):
Question.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
I didn't even get to our two's pole question, and
here we are an hour three.

Speaker 4 (02:30):
How about that?

Speaker 8 (02:30):
Well, if you're a baseball player wearing your uniform with
socks and stirrups or full length pants, we've decided to
go with rather than pants down to your ankles. Okay,
poor wording of fifty eight percent? Are going with socks
and stirrups. Now see, in my day, I figured that
would be a lot higher. That was like the only

(02:51):
way to wear your baseball uniform. It felt like more traditional. Okay,
and I know uniforms are a big topic today.

Speaker 4 (02:58):
Okay, you have any thoughts on that or not? No,
not really, you know, I.

Speaker 7 (03:03):
Think Manny Ramirez was one of the forefathers of the
long pant almost over the shoe.

Speaker 4 (03:08):
In Major League base they started getting a little more baggy.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
Yes well, and I think coincidentally enough, Jeff bag Well
was also one who you now this was it used
to be when guys were using performance enhancing drugs. They
wanted a uniform that was going to showcase their new physique.
And then all of a sudden they realized, wait a minute,
maybe I need to hide my physique so people aren't going,
wait a minute, are you on performance enhancing drugs? Then

(03:33):
they started to wear basically laundry. When I went up
to the plate, Yes.

Speaker 6 (03:37):
Todd, you see sabatiad some pretty biga.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Yes he did, Yes he did. I don't think he
was hiding. I don't think he was.

Speaker 7 (03:44):
Yes, Paul, Yeah, there's a great site called uni Watch
and the stirrup era. They're calling it the stirrup era
because in the past five years, the percentage of players
that wear there are game pants down to their knee
and then socks, the stirrup type socks the shoes is
way up.

Speaker 4 (03:59):
Back to you, all right, well, thank you. I'll keep
an eye on that one.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
I hope by the end of this week I can
get the uniform thing fixed. I'm working on this behind
the scenes tirelessly while hosting this show. I would like
to get the players to be able to go back
to their team uniforms, not what we saw last night.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
I'm doing my best. Dan.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
Now, if you want to have fun with Home Run
Derby with these uniforms and sell some merchandise, great. When
it comes to the All Star game, let's identify a
player with a team and vice versa.

Speaker 8 (04:30):
Yes, I don't want you to be disappointed if they
don't make a decision on this until almost a year
fot Okay, all right, just saying it doesn't mean that
you didn't do it.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
No, No, I'm working on it. I mean it took
a while to get foreigner in the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame.

Speaker 4 (04:44):
Nailed it.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Yeah, John Facenda into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. No,
I'm working on Brent Musburger getting into the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 8 (04:52):
Well, this uniform thing, they might they might have privately
made the decision to go back, but they're going to
spend some time now figuring out, well, how do we
monetize this anyway and make everybody happy. That's going to
take a little more time, Okay, just I don't want
you to set yourself up for disappointment.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
No, And I'm trying to be more patient obviously dealing
with Todd, I've become more patient.

Speaker 9 (05:16):
If you get Brent Musburg into the Hall of Fame,
not that you'll be the one picked to introduce him,
but can you at least go on stage and go
you're looking live?

Speaker 6 (05:22):
It can't? Ohio.

Speaker 9 (05:23):
They should give you like a little something for your
troubles if you happen to get Brent into the Hall
of Fame.

Speaker 4 (05:27):
I don't want to be part of it.

Speaker 6 (05:29):
What they have to do that all you got to
do is you're looking a lot.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
But now, no, because that's not my line.

Speaker 6 (05:36):
But it's an honor to Brent who made that famous
with the NFL.

Speaker 4 (05:38):
But it's Brent's line, not mine.

Speaker 6 (05:40):
What Brent personally asked you to do.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
I would say, no, Brent, it's your day.

Speaker 6 (05:45):
Okay. I thought i'd ask no, no, no.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
I If Brent gets in, great, he should get in.
I don't take any credit for John Facinda. He should
have been in. That was embarrassing that he wasn't in
the voice of the NFL. Should be as a contributor
in the Hall of Fame, Brent Musburger, he gave us
the pregame show. He should be in the Pro Football

(06:08):
Hall of Fame. That's all now, and people should understand
it's the Pete Roselle Award for contributions to the game,
and Brent has certainly done that, continues to do that,
and John Facendaz certainly did that as well.

Speaker 6 (06:24):
All right.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
By the way, Andy Reid was asked how much longer
he's going to coach.

Speaker 10 (06:31):
I know I'm on the bottom side of this thing
and not on the top side of it, so it's coming, but.

Speaker 4 (06:37):
I don't know what it is.

Speaker 10 (06:38):
And this is a great place to coach, and I've
got good players and you know, so I'll be seventy
one at the end of this contract, and that seems
like really old you, so we'll see see where it
all goes.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
It's kind of a silly, unfair question. Hey, how much
longer are you going to coach? What keeps you coming
back each year to want to coach? You know, what
would leave you that would make you, you know, reconsider
how long you want to go? Like, yeah, nobody's gonna say, oh,
I'm going to coach two more years. I mean, I

(07:15):
don't think you announced it other than someone like me
who knows when he's going to retire. But I had
a plan of when I was going to retire. I
don't if I'm Andy Reid, why am I retiring? So
what you're seventy one? I would say, Hey, I look
to coach as long as Patrick mahomes as my quarterback now,
I mean, look at his contract.

Speaker 4 (07:37):
That's how long I plan on coaching.

Speaker 2 (07:40):
It feels like you get to a certain age and
then people start to ask the question, whether you're a
coach or your player, Hey, how much long are you thinking?
Like Tom Brady got this forever. That's why when Tom
said I'm gonna play do on forty five, and of
course we all laughed.

Speaker 4 (07:54):
I did. I thought he was.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Saying it's a stupid question. I'm gonna play to on
forty five, and then you can't ask that question again,
or you can say, are you still going to play
to your forty five? And then Tom played until he's
forty five. I never want somebody to retire until you
want to retire. When Kyle Montgomery calls out Tiger Woods
and says, you know, kind of the way you're playing,

(08:18):
it's kind of embarrassing, I'm paraphrasing, you should retire well.

Speaker 4 (08:23):
Tiger, if he wants to play.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
It's like Charles Barkley is playing golf and he doesn't
play golf well, but he wants to play. Tom Watson
nearly won the Open Championship and he was what sixty
one sixty two years of age. I would never tell you, oh,
you got to retire. You're embarrassing yourself.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Now.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
There have been moments where I feel bad for those athletes.
Willie Mays when he played for the Mets late in
his career, You're like, wow, I don't want to see
him falling.

Speaker 4 (08:53):
Down like that.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
Or I don't want to see somebody striking out. I
don't want to see somebody not be great. Andy Reid,
I mean, why wouldn't you continue to coach?

Speaker 4 (09:04):
I would? I mean they.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
Should be the favorite to one of the favorites to
win the Super Bowl again this year. So Tyreek Hill
was talking about his quarterback and he was on Sports
Center and had this to say about too a tongue
of I loo.

Speaker 11 (09:19):
For people to like sit here and try to discreate
a tool and say, you know, he's not deserving of
a contract is wild to me, man, because like a
lot of guys on the team understands his value and understands,
you know that we need them like we need we
need his leadership, we need his mindset. Like the mindset
that he brings into each and every week is there,

(09:39):
Like it's like it's like terminator almost.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
Man.

Speaker 11 (09:41):
So I feel like he should be one of the
highest paid quarterbacks in the league. You know, obviously say
some room for me.

Speaker 4 (09:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
So maybe he gave an answer to give you another
question or answer, and that is his contract. Because as
soon as Justin Jefferson and some of these receivers were
getting paid, I said, I was told, Tyreek Hill is
going to want to renegotiate his contract at the time

(10:10):
when he's getting twenty eight million, we're like twenty eight million,
and you had to give draft picks up to get him.
And then all of a sudden, he looks around and
he's like, I'm still the best receiver. I want to
be paid. He wants to to get paid. He wants
to get paid as well. I mean, he he's Tyreek

(10:30):
Hill is unstoppable. He is unless you got three guys
on him at the line of scrimmage, because he will
beat press coverage, he will get open. I mean he's
going to catch at least one hundred and fifteen balls.
He had eighteen hundred yards and just watching hard knocks,
I was fascinated by him because you know, you have

(10:53):
a head coach who basically knows that guy is going
to be open. Imagine if you're a quarterback, you're two,
you go to of scrimmage and you're like, all right,
what do I want to do? Where do I want
to throw the ball to Tyreek Hill? You know, I'm
kind of tired of throwing it over there. I'm gonna
throw it to Jalen Wattle. Now they got obj there.
He should put up unbelievable numbers. Tua should put up

(11:16):
unbelievable numbers. But to go to the line of scrimmage.
You know, Mahomes has this, Kirk Cousins had this with
Justin Jefferson. Matthew Stafford has this with a couple of
his receivers. Where you go to the life. Imagine you're
Joe Montan or Steve Young. You go to the line
of scrimmage, you go, I know that I got a
mismatch right there. Every single play if I want to,

(11:39):
I have a mismatch there. Just having that confidence because
a lot of times you know you're going to the
line of scrimmage. Like Bryce Young, he goes to the
line of scrimmage and he's going, oh man, where maybe
maybe nowhere. Caleb Williams is going to go to the
line of scrimmage this year and know that he has

(11:59):
a mismatches. He just knows he will that confidence as
a rookie quarterback. Who I mean, that's a difference maker.
And I do believe the Bears are a playoff team
this year.

Speaker 4 (12:13):
I do.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
I don't think they're where the Lions were a couple
of years ago when I thought they were going to
make that big jump and they started out slow and
then they prove that they were a really good team,
and then the following years when they made their big jump.
There's certain teams where you go, this is their year
to make a jump. But you know what, they had
seven wins. I think we look at them as a

(12:37):
bad team. They might be a bad franchise, but they
weren't a bad team. They had seven wins. But because
they got the number one overall pick, we tend to
equate that with, oh, they didn't have a good year.

Speaker 4 (12:47):
No, they did.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
And then you got Roma Doonza, who I love. You know,
you're going to have receivers who are going to make
an impact. You know, Swift is a really good running back.
So they got the weapons there. It's just a question
of how good the coaching is and you know defensively,
you know in that in that division. Now, does Minnesota

(13:09):
take a step back? With JJ McCarthy, Green Bay is
going to be formidable again. Detroit, we know, is going
to be really good again. So if you're getting nine wins,
you might be able to make the playoffs.

Speaker 4 (13:21):
And that's what I see with the Chicago Bears. Yes, Ton,
can we play that?

Speaker 6 (13:25):
Andy reid byke once more, I just had a little
one liner that I.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Right, Andy reeman. Andy Reid is is gonna are you
sure about this?

Speaker 4 (13:34):
I am, okay, it's pretty good. All right, Andy Reid
is going to provide the setup for a Todd joke.

Speaker 10 (13:39):
I know I'm on the bottom side of this thing
and not on the top side of it, so it's
it's coming, but I don't know when it is. And
this is a great place to coach. And I've got
good players and you know, so I'll be seventy one
at the end of this contract and that seems like
really old. And uh so we'll see suit were all close.

Speaker 9 (14:01):
It, Andy Reid, I'm suggling. Andy Reid said he was
on the bottom side of things. I'm quite sure nobody
wants him on top.

Speaker 4 (14:09):
Okay, thank you too.

Speaker 7 (14:12):
I'm sorry like a sexual reference and guy being heavy wet, Yeah,
heavy too.

Speaker 9 (14:18):
I'm glad he was on the bottom side of things.
I'm quite sure nobody would want him on top.

Speaker 4 (14:22):
No, no, we we heard it.

Speaker 8 (14:25):
Yes, I thought he meant like like top of the
like standings, like on top. People are sick of the
chiefs winning, so we don't want Andy Reid on top.

Speaker 12 (14:34):
Now.

Speaker 7 (14:34):
If it would have been in the moment seven minutes ago,
that would have.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
Crushed No, I don't even think so. I don't think
so well.

Speaker 9 (14:39):
I need sex rehab because I'm thinking of you, Tom,
you want sex rehab.

Speaker 6 (14:44):
I think I might do.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
They purposely hire people who aren't good looking. They have
to at a sex rehamb Todd. You could get a job.

Speaker 6 (14:54):
That's just uncalled for, notecessary, That's what I think.

Speaker 4 (14:58):
Yeah, they can't.

Speaker 6 (15:00):
I have hot people walking around and working there.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
I know that's I don't know, it's kind of weird.
I still don't understand is there really a sex rehab place.

Speaker 6 (15:09):
I'm dubious about that whole world.

Speaker 4 (15:13):
All right.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
Tory Lavello was kind enough to join us last Friday
when we had Paul's schemes on and he announced that
he was going to be the Nation League starter. So
we thought we would pay that off and have him
back on again. Talk a little bit more to him.
We'll get to his phone calls. A lot of people
have names for my boat, my pontoon boat, and I
think sports anchor or the mother ship right now in

(15:37):
the clubhouse, Yeah, Seaton, we.

Speaker 4 (15:38):
Got one here from Todd.

Speaker 8 (15:40):
Not this Todd, another Todd A funny time, funny Todd
a clever Todd deep three fishing.

Speaker 4 (15:46):
Instead of deep sea shore. Shoot.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
All right, how about c's get degrees s E a.

Speaker 4 (15:56):
S play off of our T shirt.

Speaker 8 (15:58):
The best part of this is that you're in a lake. Yeah,
all of these that were playing off of cuch okay
a dozen of them, and you would be going around
essentially this lake.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
And then people go, you know, it's a lake not
to see captain, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (16:16):
That would be funny.

Speaker 7 (16:17):
A very nautical name, like for an ocean.

Speaker 13 (16:21):
Very not let's go very very not a cod.

Speaker 1 (16:32):
Okay, let me take a break. We're back after this.

David Spade, got.

Speaker 14 (17:01):

Listen to Unbreakable with Jay Glazer and Mental Wealth podcast
on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get podcasts.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
Brandon Nyuk made it official he wants to be traded
from San Francisco. He's got one year left I think
fourteen million dollars, but he wants to get paid, and
this is your opportunity. This might be the only big
contract that he has. If you're lucky, you get two
contracts in the NFL. If you're really, really lucky and good,
you'll get three contracts. But Brandon Nyuk is a very

(17:45):
good player, but probably looks around and goes Roma. Doonesa
with the Bears just got paid more guaranteed money yesterday
than Brandon Nyuk has made in his career with the
forty nine ers. The team that should trade for Brandon
Ayuk is who Paul?

Speaker 7 (18:03):
The Detroit Lions good maybe great quarterback. They have amanas
Saint Brown. They could use another very strong wide receiver
and a really good tight end and then running back.
They're all set in very good defense, and you know what,
the Lions don't need draft picks two years from now.
They need to win one super Bowl in everyone's lifetime
as Lions fans. You trade your first round pick for

(18:25):
Brandon Ayuk, you now have a very threatening receiver in
his prime. Also, you are fifth right now in the
league and available caproom. You have some money to play
with in the near future.

Speaker 4 (18:35):
Look who did some homework here a little bit.

Speaker 7 (18:38):
Okay, I'm probably wrong on the caproom thing, but now,
in all seriousness, if you're the Lions, what's the risk
winning a Super Bowl? You're disclosed last year and golf
feels like he's like an A minus quarterback.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
Yeah, I think he was a top He's a top
ten quarterback according to ESPN rankings here.

Speaker 7 (18:54):
If you went by blind stats, he's top five, Yes
he is. But if you think like Jamison Williams their second,
you're good, not great yet.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
Tory Lovello, the Diamondbacks manager, nationally goal star manager, and
kind enough to join us last week to announce to
Paul Schemes that he was going to be the starting
pitcher in the Nationalague Gold Star Game. Tory kind enough
to join us in Chicago taking on the Cubs. That'll
be a Friday, Tory joins us. Did you keep everything

(19:22):
from last night? What did you keep from the All
Star Game last night?

Speaker 5 (19:27):
Yeah, that's a good question.

Speaker 4 (19:28):
There's a there's a lot to take in.

Speaker 5 (19:31):
And I know you've been you've been in and out
of that club.

Speaker 4 (19:33):
Not memories. I'm talking about your uniform, your belts, the
lineup card, like what did.

Speaker 9 (19:40):
Uh?

Speaker 5 (19:41):
Yeah, I get to keep my jersey. That that was
pretty good. Probably the best thing that I got was
I brought a guitar, a red guitar, Sodona Reddish guitar,
and I had the entire team sign that. So I'm
gonna that's that's going to be the best memory that
I'm going to be the best thing and I'm gonna
take back with me Arizona for sure.

Speaker 2 (19:59):
Could we get the pants for the man Cave?

Speaker 5 (20:04):
The jersey? Uh, definitely going to go up in the
man cave? The pants? You know, did you see the unis?
They're tough unis. They're a little bit dark.

Speaker 4 (20:14):
Sorry they're called terrible. They're they're terrible.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
You know that, right, nothing personal, They're just they they
don't it looks like softball?

Speaker 5 (20:26):
Yeah? I agree. Remember the good old days though, when
you'd wear your home Union.

Speaker 4 (20:29):
Yes, I love that.

Speaker 5 (20:31):
Yeah, yeah, MLB has a great plan. I don't want
to disrupt that, but yeah, it was a little bit different,
a little bit different.

Speaker 4 (20:37):
Okay, what are you doing with the pants? Can?

Speaker 2 (20:40):
Can I put them in my man cave? How about this?
How about the socks? Could I get something to put
up in the man cave?

Speaker 5 (20:46):
Oh? My god, would you really do that? Sure?

Speaker 4 (20:49):
Yes, you autograph it.

Speaker 2 (20:50):
I got Don Maddingly sent me his entire Dodger uniform.
Every time he got thrown out of a game, he
had to send me a piece of his uniform. So
I made a mannequin of Donnie and so I got hat,
and I got his jersey, I got his pants, everything
over there. So I'm not asking for you to send

(21:10):
me something every time you get thrown out. Maybe just something,
you know, because we have the all Star game moment now,
you and me and Paul's schemes, we have that moment
that will share the rest of our lives.

Speaker 4 (21:22):
This is why you're the absolute best.

Speaker 5 (21:24):
I love it. I love it all right. The pants,
I'll send you a couple of surprises. They'll be on
their way for sure. Now you know the whole Don
Manningly thing.

Speaker 4 (21:34):
Yeah, I was a big.

Speaker 5 (21:35):
Fan Donny Baseball like that. That must be a pretty
impressive collection. But our moment, right. I butted in on
you and Paul the other day, and I had a
tough time doing that. You guys seem like you guys revived.
I'm pretty good, So I appreciate you inviting me in.
But it worked out good, you know what, Molb tipped
me off to that. I'm just really appreciative I was
able to meet you and Paul at the same time.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
I thought it was great. But you're looking at somebody
who's twenty two years of age, toy, I mean, seems
pretty mature for twenty two years of age.

Speaker 5 (22:05):
Yeah, you know, you'd always wonder what's under the hood
when you finally get a chance to meet him. And
he was as as solid a human being as as
you you know, as he portrayed when I was talking
to him, as I've been watching him on the Diamond
on TV when he's on the bump thrown, just very humble,

(22:25):
very very proud of his craft, and he wants to
go out there and be great, and it's hard to believe,
it really is hard to believe that he's twenty two
years old.

Speaker 4 (22:33):
Who's he remind you of? Stuff wise?

Speaker 5 (22:38):
Probably Doc Gooden. Remember when Doc was as dominant as
he was early in his career, and he had a
great career. Don't get me wrong, it was a long,
great career, but when he jumped onto the scene, it
was power stuff. With the wipe out curveball. Paul has
the real good fastball, and now a young pitcher that
knows where it's going at that velocity is very uncommon.

(23:00):
And then he's got the splinker. He calls it a
sinker or split. That's that's equivalent to the curveball, Uncle Charlie,
the Doc used to throw.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
But you also have these I mean, and I remember,
you know Doc's curveball was not ninety seven miles an hour.
It feels like Paul Scheme's off speed pitch is ninety
six ninety seven.

Speaker 4 (23:20):
Miles per hour.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
How long can you keep that kind of velocity up.

Speaker 4 (23:26):
Well, he's a big horse.

Speaker 16 (23:28):
You know, when you stand next to him, he's all
but you know he's almost seven foot when he's standing
next to you. So he's got a little he's got
some he's got some force on the baseball, no doubt
about it.

Speaker 5 (23:39):
But I think his body can withstand that. You know,
this is the type of guy. I think he's a
generational guy because of because of the demeanor, the maturity
that we're talking about. But I think his stuff is
going to be pretty special. He can stay healthy, He's
gonna have a great career.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
The star power of Otani. Now you get to write
his name in the lineup. What was that like? Just
sort of being around him on his side.

Speaker 5 (24:05):
The presence is pretty powerful. You know, you you sit
next to him, you know he's he's just a normal
kid right to the same thing. It's it's amazing. I
watched these guys across the field. He circling the bases
after hitting home runs against the Arizona Diamondbacks. He had
won last night. It was great to high five and
when he came back into our dugout. We were on
the same team, but I had a couple of moments

(24:26):
with them where it was kind of laughing. We were
laughing and giggling and just carrying on and having having
the same type of you know, conversation that you and
I are having right now. But just a just a
quality human being who happens to be a great player
and that's the that's the intimidating part of being at
the All Star Game. You know, you're you're you're a
part of this room. You're in the space where the

(24:46):
best players are in the in the same space. At
one time, I was just hoping I didn't walk through
the clubhouse and trip and fall in front of everybody.
That was one one left, right, left, right, Triph.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
What what was the one that you learned from the
World Series last year? I guess there's one overriding thing
where you have that with you. Uh, if you went again,
you know, this would be something that you would remind
yourself of.

Speaker 5 (25:19):
Yeah. Well, first of all, I love baseball. I love
the history of baseball. My my grandpa, my parents taught
me the right way. I just I was in awe
of the moment and I will never forget or take
that for granted that I was the manager in the
World Series. You know, It's just the thing that I
remember is all the all the love and support that

(25:41):
I got from people around me in my space. And
then it's seven o five. It was go time and
we had a job to do. So just remember the balance,
the excitement and I want to win one, you know,
it was tough to go that far and then at
the end of it you had to walk off the
field and you weren't the last last team standing. So
I have a lot of motivation too if we ever

(26:02):
do get back there, to make sure that we do
everything we can to win one.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
You played in the late eighties and nineties' best picture
you faced.

Speaker 5 (26:12):
Doc Gooden. He was still he was still pumping it
up there in the in the mid nineties with Uncle Charlie.
You know, I had a really tough time with the
guy by the name of Flash Gordon. I don't know
if you remember the name Tom, and yeah, Tom Flash Gordon.
He would throw me a fastball, probably in the mid nineties,

(26:33):
eye high, and then bounce three curve balls that I
couldn't see or pick up spin, and he knew it,
and he kept throwing him shorter and short. He's preppicly
throwing him in the grass, and I was just going
at him. Those are the two guys right out of nowhere.
Everbody would think, you know, Roger Clemmet, Nolan Ryan, Well,
certainly they were good. But yeah, I had a tough
time with Doc Goodin and had a really, really tough

(26:55):
time with flashboard. But Randy Johnson like, yeah, you know,
I think I had a couple of hits off of
the big unit. For some reason, I saw the ball.
I saw the ball off him. I don't I can't
explain it. He you know, he might he might have
felt sorry for me. Who this little deweeve up there.

(27:15):
I gotta help him out. He's hitting two ten. Let
me let me helpm out and throw m cookie.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
Can you name all fifteen pitchers you homered off of
in your career?

Speaker 4 (27:25):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (27:25):
Man, you know what happens.

Speaker 4 (27:28):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (27:28):
For some reason, I think I hit more, but I didn't.
And for some reason, I feel like I can go
back to every single one of Paul.

Speaker 4 (27:35):
Do you have the names of all fifteen pitchers? I
gotta check.

Speaker 5 (27:39):
Okay, Okay, I can probably get pretty close, but I
might miss one or two. Yeah, I can get you
pretty close. Dand for sure.

Speaker 4 (27:47):
Any all stars, any Hall of famers.

Speaker 5 (27:50):
Yeah, that's what threw me off. So I did homer
off of Doc Gooden. I did homer off of off
of Roger Clemens. I know he's not a Hall of Famer.
I over off of Rick Suckcliffe.

Speaker 6 (28:04):
I had.

Speaker 5 (28:05):
I had some big names in there.

Speaker 4 (28:06):
I don't know how I did you think.

Speaker 2 (28:08):
That they looked at that when you came up, they
could maybe rest a little bit like an easy out.
I'm not gonna waste my good stuff on it. I mean,
I'm gonna be honest with you, Tory. I mean, you
weren't Babe Ruth at the plate. So I'm guessing they
might have gone all right, I got it out here, yeah.

Speaker 7 (28:23):
Paulie, Dan, the list gets better for Tory. Okay, he
got Roger Clements, he got Sutcliffe, he got Prime Kevin Brown,
he got David Wells, Jack Morris, Dwight Gooden. I mean that.

Speaker 5 (28:35):
Damn yeah, Yeah, for sure, I think you're onto something, though, Dan,
they looked at me and they felt so remember the
liter League, it was like, okay, everybody, bring the outfielders in,
everybody in, everybody in. Come on, he's gonna he's gonna
hit him ground ball or something. He can't get it
over anybody's head. So yeah, I think that was probably
part of it.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
Were you when you got to the plate, A walks
as good as a hit, all right, Tory walks as
good as a hit. Come on now, Like they didn't
want to have the expectations too high.

Speaker 5 (29:05):
Yeah, oh for sure.

Speaker 4 (29:05):
Don't be afraid to get hit.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
Yeah, don't be afraid to get hit, Tory, It's okay.
You know, Mark's good as it hit. Come on now,
come on, mabe. Well, congratulations, thank you again for last Friday,
and we'll look forward to maybe a surprise or two
for the Man Cave.

Speaker 5 (29:20):
Oh for sure, I'll get that address. We'll tien that up.
We'll get you something real nice in there. And I honestly, Dan,
I'm a big fan. I would be honored. I'd be
honored any something.

Speaker 4 (29:28):
So thank you, Thank you, Bud. That's Tory. Leavello.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
The Diamondbacks they are right now second in the West.
They got the Cubs at Wrigley. That'll be coming up
on Friday. I believe good sport there.

Speaker 4 (29:41):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (29:41):
Paul So he played eight years in the Bigs. He's
one of those guys who would play like a year here,
a year there, hit like two seventeen to fourteen. But
to get Clemens, I mean that's pretty that's nutty.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
So Clemens is Hall of Fame worthy. His numbers are.
Kevin Brown is not a Hall of Famer. He had
a run though, Oh did man? Yes, he did until
Johnny Damon hit a grand slam off of him at
Yankee Stadium. David Wells was good. David Wells should have

(30:14):
been a Hall of Famer, like just with his talent.
Jack Morris hall of Famer. It's that's a pretty doc gooden.
I mean those are great name, great list.

Speaker 9 (30:26):
Yeah, yes, Tom diamondbacks to media relations were following along
with the interview.

Speaker 6 (30:29):
They're already starting to put a package together.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
I like that, all right, nice package, Chuck and Sarah Toga.
Hi Chuck, what's on your mind today?

Speaker 5 (30:39):
Hi?

Speaker 17 (30:40):
Dan?

Speaker 12 (30:40):
Two things? One, I have a boat named for you
and wavo instead of in.

Speaker 4 (30:46):
Fuego okay and wavo okay okay.

Speaker 12 (30:49):
And do you think you know Baseball's instituted some some
really good rule changes the last couple of years. Do
you think instituting the rule for starting pitchers that you
have to go you know, say seven innings or one
hundred pitches or give up five runs before you can
get pulled, that that would then motivate or force these

(31:10):
pitchers to go back to pitching instead of just throwing
as hard as thing can.

Speaker 2 (31:14):
Yeah, but you can fake an injury. I don't know
how you enforce that chunk. Now what I like to
see pictures go. Starting pitchers become more of the face
of the game like they used to be. Yes, I would,
but starting pitchers are like running backs. It just feels
like we're going to use you until you get injured
and then we'll get somebody else. So you can't say, hey,

(31:37):
you must pitch a certain number of innings. Bill in
West Virginia, Good morning Bill, what's on your mind today?

Speaker 18 (31:43):
Good morning Dan? Got a name or two for your pontent? Okay,
how about and they're close to but they're rather similar.
Golden boy or golden bowie, b ou.

Speaker 4 (31:55):
Y, golden bowie. All right.

Speaker 2 (31:57):
That was my nickname, a derogatory nickname, golden boy, when
I was in college. Imagine your coach calls your golden boy,
and it's not a good thing, you would think being
called golden boy. But by golly, golden boy. And I go,
I told my dad that, I said, Hey, coaches calling
me golden boy. He goes, well, that's a good thing.
I go, I don't think so.

Speaker 4 (32:18):
I don't think it is. I think he's mocking me.

Speaker 6 (32:20):
Dad.

Speaker 4 (32:21):
I had long hair and he was calling me golden boy.

Speaker 6 (32:25):
Way he's saying it sounds a little negative.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
Yeah, it wasn't like, hey, golden boy. It was like
golden boy, get out. Yeah, Pauline, you think that's bad.
My grade school football coach called me Mike. You didn't
even know my name, like Mike get in. I'm like
paul and I'm like I was so irrelevant on the team.
He called me Mike once.

Speaker 4 (32:42):
Why did he call you a golden boy because of
your reputation or because of your hair? I do not know.
He just they called me golden boy.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
And he had this I talked about this, this nervous
tick that he would take his thumb and he would
jab right aroud on his belt buckle. He had those
bike shorts, those coaching shorts, real tight shorts, and he'd
be and he'd get real fidgeting.

Speaker 4 (33:07):
By golly, golden boy, get out.

Speaker 8 (33:11):
Well yeah, but it was followed by get out. Usually
usually it's not a good sun Golden boy.

Speaker 4 (33:17):
Yes, did you ever act.

Speaker 9 (33:18):
Entitled to arrogant or any of those things that would
make him say when I hear golden boys, as if like,
whereever you think you are, you're not that good.

Speaker 2 (33:24):
I don't think I did, because I wasn't good enough
to think that I was league rules frowned upon.

Speaker 8 (33:30):
Well, okay, well I mean in high school, yes, and
you left all of that in high school and didn't
take that to college.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
I did well when I guarded Tyrone two small jones
and he was five nine and he played for the
number one team in the country and I'm guarding him,
and it wasn't nice.

Speaker 4 (33:49):
It was not nice.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
He was so quick and shut him down. Absolutely. I
was Gary Payton. He was Tyrone too small, too slow. Yeah,
I've been Dan too slow. Oh but yeah, my I
don't know how I got Golden Boy because I didn't.
I didn't do anything except for I shot a lot,

(34:15):
and I don't know. For some reason, we just didn't.
We didn't vibe. You know. I would have been in
the transfer portal back then. I don't know if anybody
would have wanted me, but I would have been in
the transfer portal probably after the first time I met him, Coach,
even when I left school, he didn't even turn around
to say goodbye to me. Coach, I'm a I'm going
to transfer. I think that's a good thing. Well, it's

(34:39):
been great. Yeah, that was pretty much it.

Speaker 6 (34:43):
Yes, Hunt there's the door Golden Boy.

Speaker 4 (34:45):
Yeah, thank you. All right, let's uh take a break.

Got a name suggestion?

Speaker 17 (35:24):
Feel like we've been bouncing all around this.

Speaker 12 (35:26):
I don't think anybody said it, But how about Daddy's
mother ship?

Speaker 4 (35:30):
Daddy's mother ship? All right?

Speaker 6 (35:33):
I did.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
We were at dinner last night and I said to
my wife, I said, hey, we have this new thing
that people can buy on the website. And she said, well,
what is it? And I showed her the picture and
she goes, oh, you're not selling that. I go why,
She goes, well, I got that bathrobe for you. She goes,
did you tell the story that I got your bathroom

(35:54):
that says daddy on it. I go, yes, huh, yes,
I did. So you're selling the bathrobe, I said, not
the bathrobe. Bathrobes that say daddy on it. But it's
inspired by my wife calling me daddy and my daughters go,
it's so creepy. Stop stop, let I go. It is

(36:15):
pretty funny, daddy daddy. Yes, Marvin.

Speaker 3 (36:18):
Somebody just tweeted us my man Ben. He said, I'm
not a father, but my girlfriend got me this daddy robe,
and I'm super funny. You don't have to be a
father to be a daddy.

Speaker 2 (36:28):
You technically don't have to have a dead dad to
join the Dead Dad's Club, but you can join the DDC.

Speaker 8 (36:34):
Well, the daddy robe is available for anybody who Yes,
however you're inspired to purchase it, yes, certainly.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
Or if somebody wants to purchase it for you, who's
your daddy?

Speaker 10 (36:47):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (36:48):
James in Virginia, Hi, James.

Speaker 17 (36:52):
Oh, okay, taking my call brother Winna DP dann Man,
I think you hit it on the head. About the
All Star Game, go back to the home and away,
unis Man. The best part of the Pro Bowl was
the mashup of the helmet but I really called because
I got to jump in on this one man. So
I got four for you. Man, I'm gonna hit him
off rapid fire. My first one is Daddy, Let's go Daddy.

(37:13):
My second one Ton Daddy, my third one Big Daddy,
and the last one of my favorites, Big Daddy Ponds.
You guys are amazing. They have a wonderful day for
Luther Commanders.

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Thank you James for the boat. I still like Sports
Anchor and Mothership. I think those are those are pretty good.
Uh this day in sports history, Paul just a couple.

Speaker 7 (37:35):
Nineteen ninety four, Brazil won their record fourth World Cup
in soccer Italy three to two on pks. The hitting
streak by Joe Demajo ended hitless for the first time
in fifty seven games.

Speaker 4 (37:47):
Who held him hitless?

Speaker 7 (37:48):
Anyone want to guess the team?

Speaker 4 (37:49):
The Indians.

Speaker 2 (37:50):
Kenny Keltner was a third baseman for the Indians and
I think made two really good plays on Joe Demijhall.

Speaker 7 (37:56):
We'll blue for you Cleveland Indians.

Speaker 2 (37:57):
Yeah, so they ended up losing to the Indians I
think four to three, and his fifty six game hitting
streak was stopped. Yes, Oh, actually the Yankees beat Cleveland
four to three, but the cleve of the hitting streak stick.

Speaker 6 (38:12):
Yes, mar Joe Demaju, he could have got some extra
money heinz ketchup? Do'd he have? Like the fifty seven
on the bottles? You remember that?

Speaker 3 (38:20):
No, Tod, come on, no, no, no, no, I'm not
saying it as a joke. I'm saying he could have
gotten some extra money. That wasn't like a LOL moment. No,
that wasn't That wasn't even like an attempt at a joke.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
I'm asking miss Yeah, yeah, yeah, Paul, if you go
back and look, I it's it's not good.

Speaker 7 (38:40):
I found these old things on eBay. Joe Demaji used
to do ads for cigarettes in magazines at like before
a game, when I want to get ready, I take
down a cool Chesterfield.

Speaker 4 (38:50):
Old Gold is the only brand I will, thanks baby.

Speaker 2 (38:52):
And Joe Demagio was mister Coffee and uh, I think
you can still buy that Mister Coffee coffee Maker. I
think it's I ran into somebody who had a Mister
Coffee Coffee Maker and I didn't know that they were
still in existence. But the man who created that is
from Cleveland, Ohio, I believe. And he hired Joe DiMaggio

(39:16):
to be mister Coffee.

Speaker 7 (39:17):
Yes, Paul, Yeah, they came out in nineteen seventy two
with Joe Demaju attached to them, and they were a
huge hit in the seventies and eighties.

Speaker 4 (39:24):
Can you still get a Mister Coffee.

Speaker 7 (39:26):
I don't think they are making them anymore, but I
found a few on eBay for you.

Speaker 4 (39:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
Well, I don't want one because I don't drink coffee,
but it's a good novelty though.

Speaker 4 (39:34):
Yeah, yes, Tohn, you.

Speaker 9 (39:36):
Guys used to call me mister Coffing. I met that
back in the day when I had that horrible cough.
And if Jodi Magier would have got to fifty seven,
he probably could have sold a lot of ketchup.

Speaker 4 (39:44):
Had to bring it back to you, he could just em.

Speaker 6 (39:50):
Mister Coffin.

Speaker 4 (39:51):
You're better about that.

Speaker 6 (39:53):
I'm a lot better.

Speaker 4 (39:54):
But I don't know why.

Speaker 9 (39:55):
I'm getting a little more sleep. I'm chewing my food,
wearing the little seatpap machine.

Speaker 6 (39:59):
Maybe I don't know.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
What's going well. Seatan used to imitate you. Yeah, but
that's what we would hear.

Speaker 6 (40:07):
Yeah, that was terrible. It's like I had some kind
of low bar in amoent us everything.

Speaker 4 (40:12):
It sounded like a seal.

Speaker 6 (40:13):
I feel that was being like strangled or something. There's
an awful noise.

Speaker 4 (40:19):
And we had to hear it. That's why we have
the coughing barrier there.

Speaker 6 (40:24):
I totally understand it. I was initially offended, but.

Speaker 7 (40:26):
There's a coughing barrier for the side of seating, but
not one in front of Fritzy, if.

Speaker 4 (40:30):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (40:31):
Yeah, so, pauli's the back of his head.

Speaker 4 (40:33):
I'm sorry. That's on you, Paul. You have to fight
for that one.

Speaker 5 (40:35):
It is.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
How about we go around the room see if we
learned anything on this program? Todd, what did you learn today?

Speaker 9 (40:40):
SMULTI thought those al unis last night must have been
just for batting practice, not to wear the actual.

Speaker 2 (40:44):
Game seatan, What did you learn? Michael Rubin never had
a loss for words, no or a loss for money.

Speaker 3 (40:52):
Marvin the Heines Corporation did awful Joe DiMaggio and endorsed
me deal if the streak hit fifty seven games?

Speaker 4 (40:59):
There you go, so smooth, you guys. Miss Paul, What
did you learn?

Speaker 7 (41:03):
You got the new pants on the way?
