The sound track of the season.
Speaker 6 (02:42):
Baby, It's those Classic Kids with David Grubby bro Podcast.
It's those Classics with day Girl mob Ropa.
Speaker 7 (03:03):
What's up Everybody on David Grubb and Welcome to another
week of Classic kids on the LB Pro Show podcast
The Mixteam. You can also catch my column Diamond Cuts
every Monday.
Speaker 8 (03:12):
On mlbpro dot Com.
Speaker 7 (03:14):
Today we're taking a look at a phenomenal moment that
happened to an otherwise solid but let's note Hreny ballplayer.
The great thing about sports is that each day is
its own opportunity for any one to.
Speaker 8 (03:24):
Do something great. Would given the chance. On August fifteen,
two thousand and five, opportunity knocked.
Speaker 7 (03:30):
For Giants outfielder Randy wagon Win came up with the
Tampa Bay Rays organization becoming a full time starter before
the two thousand and one season and actually earned a
spot on the two thousand and two All Star team
and finishing that season with the two ninety eight average,
fourteen home runs.
Speaker 8 (03:44):
Seventy five RBI, and eighty seven runs.
Speaker 7 (03:47):
Scored between two thousand and two and two thousand and eight,
which was a solid contributed for.
Speaker 8 (03:51):
The Raids, Mariners and Giants over those seven years.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
He batted two ninety four and averaged thirteen homers, sixty
eight RBI, and eighty five runs while collecting.
Speaker 8 (04:00):
More than twelve hundred hits.
Speaker 7 (04:02):
But on one night, Randy Winn put it all together
for the best single performance of his career with the
Giants taking on the Cincinnati Rants on August fifteenth, two
thousand and five, when made a little history, becoming only
the twenty first player in the franchise's history to hit
for the cycle just two weeks after being traded to
the Bag from Seattle.
Speaker 8 (04:20):
Went singled in the first over to the third, doubled
in the.
Speaker 7 (04:23):
Fourth, and then wrapped it up with the triple in
the sixth, helping the Giants to a seven to three win.
It was a rare highlight in the season then saw
San Francisco finished with a losing record. It certainly wasn't
due to the efforts of Randy Win, however, on a team
loaded with MLB bros including Barry Bonds, Ray Durham, Marquise Chrisoman,
Michael Tucker, it was Win who led the team with
a three to fifty nine average over those fifty eight games,
even though he ranked thirteenth in games played when finished
(04:45):
the season with eighth in and run scored on the Giants,
ninth and hits, fifth in doubles, first in triples, and
third in home runs.
Speaker 8 (04:52):
After thirteen seasons, went finally.
Speaker 7 (04:54):
Retired following his tenth Saint Louis Cardinals, hitting his career
with a two eighty four average and seventeen hundred and
fifty not his more than respectable career.
Speaker 8 (05:02):
So we take them over today and give those flowers
to reading with. I'm David Grubb. It's been class kids.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Now back to the Bis.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Indeed with og Mark Ray Cleveland.
Speaker 9 (05:22):
Guardian fans are wondering who is this guy we traded
at the deadline and why is he raking these days
in Florida? But he couldn't buy hit Here I will
tell you why It's your Boy. The MLB O g
Mark Gray and I'm rocking to Mike on the mixtape
to Miami. Marlins re shaped their infield once they brought
(05:43):
in first base from Josh Bell. Bell officially joined the
Marlins lineup on August second, and he appeared in all
eleven of his games once he hit South Beach. He
split time at first base and DH with Yerley Gurry
Yeo and Jose Solaire and has been mashing at the
(06:04):
plate since he started rocking the Marlin's blues check it out,
and at one point earlier this week he was hitting
three ten with four home runs, nine RBI, two doubles,
six walks, and an ops of one point zero three nine.
Bill's batting average is a Marlin seven points higher than
(06:25):
his batting average as a guardian and his OPS three
hundred and thirty eight points higher.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Crazy, isn't it now?
Speaker 9 (06:32):
Fans on Lake area has got to be wondering where
this Bell was while in Cleveland while the OJ's working theories.
That is so damned Cole and chilling on the lake
After playing in San Diego at the end of last season,
he needed some heat to warm up his bat Cuban
sandwiches are better than Paroghi's and by the way, South
(06:54):
Beach much cooler than the flats. It's the boy Mark Gray,
the MLB og and I'm going tee foot the mix tape.
Speaker 10 (07:08):
It's the Black A Report, the Black Age Repold. It's
the Black Age Report, the Black Age Report.
Speaker 11 (07:21):
What's up, everybody? This is justin Petrullie with the Black
Ace Report on the MLB bro Show podcast mixtape. Here's
where you get the latest on the melanated Mault marauders
who are shoveling precision and popping out all across the
big leagues. So lesser the report. The stroke shows in
danger of being canceled for the remainder of the season.
After being scheduled to return on August sixteenth, Marcus Stroman
ended up having a setback on his aisle since as
(07:43):
he was rehapping his original injury on his right hip,
it revealed that he had a card littractor in his
right ribcage and now has no timetable to return, possibly
missing the remainder of the season. Stroman was sensational from
late March late June, posting at two point four to
seven ERA earning his second career All Star appearance and
being a perennial Sion cotender all throughout. However, his hot
start really cool down, having a nine point one to
(08:04):
one ERA for the month of July and then ended
up getting hurt. If Stroman has pitched his final game
of the twenty twenty three season, he'll end with a
ten and eight record and a three point five to
nine ERA one hundred. Green's been activated from the sixty
day injured list and his schedule to pitch on Sunday,
August twentieth at home against the Blue Jays. Green's last
start was on June seventeenth, and since then the ruts
have been just above five hundred during that time period
(08:25):
at twenty seven and twenty four.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
What since he.
Speaker 11 (08:28):
Battling for a playoff spot, Green's return could have come
at a better time. Todsh Bridley's going to have to
seriously step it up for the race. Bridley was sent
back to Triple A at the beginning of August after
the Race had lost his last six outings, but with
the recent injury news regarding Shade McClanahan, Bradley will surely
be called back up sooner rather than later, and when
he does, he'll need to be lights out like the
pitcher he was at the beginning of the year. That's
(08:50):
the black As report for this week. This is jas
B the road. Now back to the mix.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
We stamped off the field and into the dugout. The
action was real, the umps about the bugout, the mixtapes coming,
Markus Stroman, Cy Young and Josh Nayler sluggin Lamart ways stugging.
We know who's Aaron judging, Cedric Mullins, lots of loven
see you when I see you in the oven, cooking

Then king of the jungle. My thing is the fungal
gas house Ka Naeland is wonderful. If the players, to me,
(09:40):
I'm scooping, Nick clean, make the marvelous plays look so routine.
We got it on Padlock Modern Dave, Bill Madlock, Maha
sick Pat don't you Willison? Whatnot? I speak the black cold.
The way they make the bros field will win them
from shortstop all into the outfield, changing our disposition. What's
really the mission when you've got the best players competeing
(10:01):
for three positions, when there's not on the field utility
ready pistons who want to bring the world to reason
more thanksgiving and sit by the gets in, But Mama

But it's only gonna happen, you believe, So we gotta
get after the rink.

Speaker 4 (11:25):
Coour wins ops e.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
R A plus Baseball is a game of stats.
Speaker 12 (11:31):
I'm Sebastianball and I'm the numbers man. Mookie Betts has
been consistently one of the top players in the league
for nearly a decade now, and he's putting up one
of his best and most complete campaigns yet. With the
Dodgers in the driver's seat in the Al East, Betts
is the star behind the success in LA. Betts has
(11:52):
always been known as an elite defender in right field. However,
this season he has leveled up a notch with his
biggest for code ever second basis season. Bets currently has
two outs above average and four defensive runs saved at
second base as of August sixteen. This, combined with two
further outs above average in centerfield, shows his unheard of
versatility and athleticism. Betts is still a thrown the base
(12:14):
paths as well as he currently has a two point
four base running runs of average. This combined with his
one fifty nine way runs creative plus, which is the
second highest of his career, puts him at five point
eight fancrafts Ward in just one hundred and twelve games.
With his current production and his contribution to the team
in a very difficult division, Betts will have a strong
(12:37):
case for MVP As the season comes down to the wire.
The numbers will tell and that's it. Numbers never lie,
so until the next episode. This is Sebastian Ball, the
numbers Man, bringing you the metrics on the MLB brosus
in this week.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Some will know running Young Krit. He had to tell
you about the bro Bombers. He had to tell you
about don't.
Speaker 13 (13:00):
Drop what's up everybody?
Speaker 3 (13:01):
This is young Krit and this is my wee.
Speaker 13 (13:04):
Could he cound out all the biggest plays mean by
MLB bros over the past seven days. This week come
and get at number five. We have Blue Jays center
fitter George Springer, who continues to get the job done
for a squad. On Wednesday, he had a soul shot
that was the difference in the one of the wind
over the Cleveland Guardians.
Speaker 14 (13:22):
And finally a drive to deep left field and it's gone.
Speaker 12 (13:29):
What is it?
Speaker 14 (13:29):
Bat for? George Springer on the thir chief pitch of
the vat.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Up next to number four.
Speaker 13 (13:37):
We have Pirates thirty basement key Brian Hayes, who's been
on fire lately. Last week he had nine hits with
a double, a triple and two home runs. His glove
has always been there, but now his bat is finally
coming around.
Speaker 14 (13:50):
We'll be able to extinguish Hayes, who there's been a
lot hader to deep shutter fred On to.
Speaker 8 (13:56):
The world, Hayes all the way over the shirt Fel.
Speaker 13 (14:02):
Long sitting in the three spot. We've got brave Centerfuuter Money.
Mike Harris was on a tear last week with eleven hits,
a double, two RBI and eight runs score.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
It's week's homeboy.
Speaker 15 (14:14):
It's Atlanta Braves center fielder Michael Harris the second and
man is he getting na I don't.
Speaker 13 (14:21):
Forget about his glove and center field and the Canada
of an army has us and and number two. This
week we have Washington Nationals young Ballerstone gear Let ourself
a huge day on Sunday, getting two hits with three
RBI is scoring a run and then eight seven win
over the Oakland A's.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Here left a deep shuter shit you later.
Speaker 13 (14:41):
Finally number one on Chris Countdown, the story of the
week is actuals. First baseman John Singles said, lasting two
home runs on Friday and an eleven three win over
the La Angels. The home runs marked his first, says
twenty fifteen. That's it until next week. I'm young krit
and this has been Chris Coundown on the Mob Bro mixtape.
(15:01):
Now back to the mix.
Speaker 16 (15:11):
As seems are fighting for home field advantage, let's highlight
some bros who really been cooking to make an impactful
effort to the team's playoff race. Let's start with Byron
bucks In, centerfielder for the Minnesota Twins, number three in
the playoff picture. The Twins are leading the AL Central
Division with four and a half games, nine games ahead
to Detroit. I was rooting for the miracle story from Detroit,
but it seems unreleasted because Minnesota is really starting to
(15:32):
pull away. Buss has a winning contribution when he plays
on the season, has seventeen home runs, forty two RBA,
seven thirty two ops. Switching gears to potential Division Series
playoff matchup. The Rangers with Marcus Simmi are cruising in
the first round. By simmey Is, the twenty twenty three
All Star recipient is having a phenomenal season thus far.
His game August fifteenth versus La Angels, he's blasting triples
(15:55):
to ole field while holding a second base of positioned down.
Lastly a number one lead horse and AO Conference Baltimore
Orioles cannot stress enough how important Cedra Mullins is to
the team.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
While the team was down and dumb.
Speaker 16 (16:06):
Versus Padres Tuesday night, a game with him being totally dominated,
Mullen's single RBI top of the sixth inning while the
score was sind zero, he was able to get the
team on the board. Mullin's last seven games has been
nothing but spectacular. Eight his four runs, five rbi with
a three forty eight ban average. He's the kind of
guy you won your locker room. He fixed his game
up in crucial moments. Nevertheless, you cannot to forget the
(16:28):
Mitch guys like outfielder Michael Harris with the Lannon Breys,
who has a number one record in the MLB.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Devin Williams pitcher for.
Speaker 16 (16:34):
The Milwaukee Brewers and shortstop outfielder Mooie Best for the
LA Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
A group of.
Speaker 16 (16:39):
Hungry lions for a big time playmakers in the majors
with many more big moments away. As mlbbro dot Com
has covered everything black and brown and baseball as we
will be serving it up all season long right here
on mv bros Podcast. The mixtape I'm Devon Cook, Stay Hungry.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
L BRO Shortlight Cast Mixed Team is the soundtrack overseason.
Speaker 14 (17:02):
Lawrence Butler, who's looking for big league hit number one?
Down a fly at the left centerfield gap on the booms,
call out, Ball's gonna hit like one in the third
base going Soners Trumer, gonna hold it there, Lawrence Butler
as its first hit.
Speaker 2 (17:15):

Speaker 17 (17:15):
A weekend series in Washington, DC saw the debut. One
more MLB broke who hails from the at L What

not jefs hot takes, but smart takes with Take that

Speaker 5 (17:34):
Take that from mlbbroad dot Com.
Speaker 17 (17:39):
Lawrence Butler debut for the Oakland Athletics against the Washington
Nationals collected two hits and was dapped up by childhood
friend that shortstop CJ Abrams.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
I played CJS. I was like eight years old, so
high playing for DJN. To you when you get your
first double, Yeah, he was like a grass.
Speaker 17 (17:56):
T third base coach Eric Martin's it's his progression firsthand.
Speaker 18 (18:02):
Yeah, I saw Lawrence when he first signed. I had
a conversation with Lawrence right from the get go. I
just like, look, Lawrence, I said, you went out and
and your numbers weren't great, but you led the organization
at hard hit ball percentage to strict the strike zone,
make more contact. Your ball's going to go where it goes.
Just become an overall hitter.
Speaker 17 (18:17):
Butler releives that more can be done to increase black
representation from baseball.
Speaker 19 (18:22):
You know, you go to like the hood, you see
a baseball field just rundown, nobody using it. It's not
even a baseball field at that point. So we could
just get better fields and communities like that to where
we get better coaches. People start using it, get the
right coaches at that and it'll start coming along.
Speaker 17 (18:42):
The show. There must be something in the water down
in Atlanta, because Butler is just another member of that
tb As generation that is about to shock the system
and take over the baseball world. I told you I
bring you up them, but smart takes, not just hot takes.

Living George sprint at dignas he yankes quite as way

Speaker 20 (21:18):
Back to due shout out, Yo, what up It's call
and here's what's popping today.
Speaker 8 (21:34):
On mlb bro dot Com.
Speaker 21 (21:36):
The New York Yankees have put themselves in a tough
position as a team is currently in last place in
the Ale East Division. While the team has struggled throughout
the season, Aaron Judge is starting to trend upward at
the plate since his return from the IL. Despite missing
nearly a month, Judge has hit twenty two home runs
through sixty five games, which leads the team. This month,
(21:57):
Judge had a stint where he went hitless for four
consecutive games and then follow that up with a five
game hitting streak. We all know that Judge is one
of the best hitters in the game today, and it's
not easy getting back into the swing of things after
missing extensive time due to an injury. While Judge may
not surpass his home run total from last season, he
can still finish the season with a pretty good hitting percentage.
(22:18):
He's carrying a two eighty four average through those sixty
five games and has a six to twenty seven slug percentage.
It's hard not to think about what Judge's stats would
have looked like if he was healthy this season, but
you better believe he's going to be locked in every
time he steps up to the plate. That's what's popping
today on mlbbro dot com.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
For more right now, go to mlbbroad dot com.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
They need it more. It's like the pipeline is flooded
with players, but events and passed certain levels like compeating
against Mike Tyson, Mike Tyson punch out and I'm saying
the water Temple the legend at Zelda level. So we're
here to pour into these players and promote them as
much as possible with our talents.
Speaker 16 (23:06):
I love for the game.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
A better reason where we played the dream, we see
through the talents of our sons and daughters. We get
these black players a chance to be heard and seen
because despite the push for diversity in the game, number's
at the LB level of ding list. So nobody should
be walking around thinking they don't need our help. We
are frontlining this Black Baseball movement. If you're black and
(23:32):
you play baseball or culture manager, hold a position where
you influence the future of the game, that you owe
it to the community to help nurture the black generation
of baseball players same way we do.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
An MB Bro with our staff for over.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
Sixty young people between the ages of eighteen to fifty five.
We have every generation covered and our mission is to
help shine a light on our mess, talents and struggles
and trumps to black baseball players. Man, Come on, man
and normalize the culture so that we can support not
only players diverse and but diverse the personalities, police interest,
and upbringing.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
We gotta win.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
We gotta win, and we're gonna be the mouthpiece and
I'll be bro that brings attention to greatness. They just
gotta step away from it every day and tapping.
Speaker 10 (24:18):
I was a cat or playing in the back streets
almost every.
Speaker 22 (24:23):
Day, and I may away. Baseball is the game to play.
It's the field that take a cutup of swing, stole
the base culture that I was a part of. Don't
take it away, take it away. That's baseball part of me.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
Don't take it away, take it away.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
It's part of me.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
Yo, you can't take baseball from me. It's a part
of me. You've got a damn dummy.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Some have tried and something hit. This is the rundown.
Next is the classic hits. George Springer had five hits
on opening day. Dave Roberts keeps winning like he's supposed
to be great. Jazz Chisholm has a vision for changing
the game, dude, the prism of strategy. We making our
way five two bombers with the ghetto persona put and
(25:21):
ketchup on earth things, street fighting pajamas. I swear to
your honor the Rosby spasm. Don't need NBA two K
for a night, but Madden just g to the captain
some late night heroics a night been in triple just
to say that the moment baseball was live when Jimmy
Ronins was holding Royce Lewis still waiting for his superstar moment.
(25:42):
Doctor Sticks had big plans to Brobama on the league.
But this golden gnam and suffering from fatigue. He'll be
back soon, Like I look for Twists and Fagan, the
awful doctor stadiums with movies blazing, take.
Speaker 22 (25:53):
Me your way, tagging away the baseball part of me,
don't take it away, don't take it away.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Just party baseball is it a part of me?
Speaker 5 (26:19):
Like how you're fighting against Its just the bill doing
oppression and being selective about the kind of black folks
you want in the game. Like for the stick hills
of Memphis and Georgia, where Yo got here and Killer
Mike rose out of inhumanly oppressive situations to become business
mobiles and feel the dreamer of a talented people of
(26:40):
color the streets.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
In the eighties.
Speaker 5 (26:44):
You know what I mean with dudes like Eric Davis
down doorway, rose up by the poverty, and it just
started because they were giving a chance and allowed to
be themselves. I mean, baseball should legislator swag Man. It's
a beautiful game with enough room for ayody and what
they bring.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
To the game, you know.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
I mean, the business of baseball is booming.
Speaker 15 (27:13):
Attendance is up nine percent across Major League Baseball. Baseball
has a chance to sell seventy million baseball tickets this season.
Speaker 23 (27:24):
A lot has to do with the rule changes, the
pitch clock, no shift, bigger bases, more stolen bases, all
that kind of stuff, also the balance schedule.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
But also at the forefront.
Speaker 15 (27:39):
Some of the best players in the game are black
and brown. Last year we saw Aaron Judge. This year,
Mookie Betts is having a phenomenal season. His name is
in the conversation for National League MVP.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
And there are all kinds of other young brothers coming
up in baseball.
Speaker 15 (28:02):
Jordan Walker busted onto the scene this season with the
Saint Louis Cardinals. Lawrence Butler is the latest MLB bro
to join the fray. With the Oakland A's, he had
his first home run in the big leagues. What a
good looking player. This guy is nice left handed hitter.
(28:24):
My goodness, gracious, baseball is thriving. The minor leagues has
plenty of young black players being groomed, ready to make
that next step. It's a good time in baseball when
you look around and see some of the young talent around,
especially when you're talking.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
About MLB bros, it's amazing. Baseball is our game.
Speaker 15 (28:51):
We're enjoying it just as much as everybody else in
baseball America, make no mistake about it. American pastime, the
national pastime.

Speaker 8 (03:12):
On mlbpro dot Com.
Speaker 7 (03:14):
Today we're taking a look at a phenomenal moment that
happened to an otherwise solid but let's note Hreny ballplayer.
The great thing about sports is that each day is
its own opportunity for any one to.
Speaker 8 (03:24):
Do something great. Would given the chance. On August fifteen,
two thousand and five, opportunity knocked.
Speaker 7 (03:30):
For Giants outfielder Randy wagon Win came up with the
Tampa Bay Rays organization becoming a full time starter before
the two thousand and one season and actually earned a
spot on the two thousand and two All Star team
and finishing that season with the two ninety eight average,
fourteen home runs.
Speaker 8 (03:44):
Seventy five RBI, and eighty seven runs.
Speaker 7 (03:47):
Scored between two thousand and two and two thousand and eight,
which was a solid contributed for.
Speaker 8 (03:51):
The Raids, Mariners and Giants over those seven years.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
He batted two ninety four and averaged thirteen homers, sixty
eight RBI, and eighty five runs while collecting.
Speaker 8 (04:00):
More than twelve hundred hits.
Speaker 7 (04:02):
But on one night, Randy Winn put it all together
for the best single performance of his career with the
Giants taking on the Cincinnati Rants on August fifteenth, two
thousand and five, when made a little history, becoming only
the twenty first player in the franchise's history to hit
for the cycle just two weeks after being traded to
the Bag from Seattle.
Speaker 8 (04:20):
Went singled in the first over to the third, doubled
in the.
Speaker 7 (04:23):
Fourth, and then wrapped it up with the triple in
the sixth, helping the Giants to a seven to three win.
It was a rare highlight in the season then saw
San Francisco finished with a losing record. It certainly wasn't
due to the efforts of Randy Win, however, on a team
loaded with MLB bros including Barry Bonds, Ray Durham, Marquise Chrisoman,
Michael Tucker, it was Win who led the team with
a three to fifty nine average over those fifty eight games,
even though he ranked thirteenth in games played when finished
(04:45):
the season with eighth in and run scored on the Giants,
ninth and hits, fifth in doubles, first in triples, and
third in home runs.
Speaker 8 (04:52):
After thirteen seasons, went finally.
Speaker 7 (04:54):
Retired following his tenth Saint Louis Cardinals, hitting his career
with a two eighty four average and seventeen hundred and
fifty not his more than respectable career.
Speaker 8 (05:02):
So we take them over today and give those flowers
to reading with. I'm David Grubb. It's been class kids.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Now back to the Bis.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Indeed with og Mark Ray Cleveland.
Speaker 9 (05:22):
Guardian fans are wondering who is this guy we traded
at the deadline and why is he raking these days
in Florida? But he couldn't buy hit Here I will
tell you why It's your Boy. The MLB O g
Mark Gray and I'm rocking to Mike on the mixtape
to Miami. Marlins re shaped their infield once they brought
(05:43):
in first base from Josh Bell. Bell officially joined the
Marlins lineup on August second, and he appeared in all
eleven of his games once he hit South Beach. He
split time at first base and DH with Yerley Gurry
Yeo and Jose Solaire and has been mashing at the
(06:04):
plate since he started rocking the Marlin's blues check it out,
and at one point earlier this week he was hitting
three ten with four home runs, nine RBI, two doubles,
six walks, and an ops of one point zero three nine.
Bill's batting average is a Marlin seven points higher than
(06:25):
his batting average as a guardian and his OPS three
hundred and thirty eight points higher.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Crazy, isn't it now?
Speaker 9 (06:32):
Fans on Lake area has got to be wondering where
this Bell was while in Cleveland while the OJ's working theories.
That is so damned Cole and chilling on the lake
After playing in San Diego at the end of last season,
he needed some heat to warm up his bat Cuban
sandwiches are better than Paroghi's and by the way, South
(06:54):
Beach much cooler than the flats. It's the boy Mark Gray,
the MLB og and I'm going tee foot the mix tape.
Speaker 10 (07:08):
It's the Black A Report, the Black Age Repold. It's
the Black Age Report, the Black Age Report.
Speaker 11 (07:21):
What's up, everybody? This is justin Petrullie with the Black
Ace Report on the MLB bro Show podcast mixtape. Here's
where you get the latest on the melanated Mault marauders
who are shoveling precision and popping out all across the
big leagues. So lesser the report. The stroke shows in
danger of being canceled for the remainder of the season.
After being scheduled to return on August sixteenth, Marcus Stroman
ended up having a setback on his aisle since as
(07:43):
he was rehapping his original injury on his right hip,
it revealed that he had a card littractor in his
right ribcage and now has no timetable to return, possibly
missing the remainder of the season. Stroman was sensational from
late March late June, posting at two point four to
seven ERA earning his second career All Star appearance and
being a perennial Sion cotender all throughout. However, his hot
start really cool down, having a nine point one to
(08:04):
one ERA for the month of July and then ended
up getting hurt. If Stroman has pitched his final game
of the twenty twenty three season, he'll end with a
ten and eight record and a three point five to
nine ERA one hundred. Green's been activated from the sixty
day injured list and his schedule to pitch on Sunday,
August twentieth at home against the Blue Jays. Green's last
start was on June seventeenth, and since then the ruts
have been just above five hundred during that time period
(08:25):
at twenty seven and twenty four.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
What since he.
Speaker 11 (08:28):
Battling for a playoff spot, Green's return could have come
at a better time. Todsh Bridley's going to have to
seriously step it up for the race. Bridley was sent
back to Triple A at the beginning of August after
the Race had lost his last six outings, but with
the recent injury news regarding Shade McClanahan, Bradley will surely
be called back up sooner rather than later, and when
he does, he'll need to be lights out like the
pitcher he was at the beginning of the year. That's
(08:50):
the black As report for this week. This is jas
B the road. Now back to the mix.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
We stamped off the field and into the dugout. The
action was real, the umps about the bugout, the mixtapes coming,
Markus Stroman, Cy Young and Josh Nayler sluggin Lamart ways stugging.
We know who's Aaron judging, Cedric Mullins, lots of loven

Then king of the jungle. My thing is the fungal
gas house Ka Naeland is wonderful. If the players, to me,
(09:40):
I'm scooping, Nick clean, make the marvelous plays look so routine.
We got it on Padlock Modern Dave, Bill Madlock, Maha
sick Pat don't you Willison? Whatnot? I speak the black cold.
The way they make the bros field will win them
from shortstop all into the outfield, changing our disposition. What's
really the mission when you've got the best players competeing
(10:01):

the lead. Let's rake my speed.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
But it's only gonna happen, you believe, So we gotta
get after the rink.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
There's only one way to get to the top, baby.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
Only one way. Get after the Wrint, Get after Wrint,

Coour wins ops e.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
R A plus Baseball is a game of stats.
Speaker 12 (11:31):
I'm Sebastianball and I'm the numbers man. Mookie Betts has
been consistently one of the top players in the league
for nearly a decade now, and he's putting up one
of his best and most complete campaigns yet. With the
Dodgers in the driver's seat in the Al East, Betts
is the star behind the success in LA. Betts has
(11:52):
always been known as an elite defender in right field. However,
this season he has leveled up a notch with his
biggest for code ever second basis season. Bets currently has
two outs above average and four defensive runs saved at
second base as of August sixteen. This, combined with two
further outs above average in centerfield, shows his unheard of
versatility and athleticism. Betts is still a thrown the base
(12:14):
paths as well as he currently has a two point
four base running runs of average. This combined with his
one fifty nine way runs creative plus, which is the
second highest of his career, puts him at five point
eight fancrafts Ward in just one hundred and twelve games.
With his current production and his contribution to the team
in a very difficult division, Betts will have a strong
(12:37):
case for MVP As the season comes down to the wire.
The numbers will tell and that's it. Numbers never lie,
so until the next episode. This is Sebastian Ball, the
numbers Man, bringing you the metrics on the MLB brosus
in this week.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Some will know running Young Krit. He had to tell
you about the bro Bombers. He had to tell you
about don't.
Speaker 13 (13:00):
Drop what's up everybody?
Speaker 3 (13:01):
This is young Krit and this is my wee.
Speaker 13 (13:04):
Could he cound out all the biggest plays mean by
MLB bros over the past seven days. This week come
and get at number five. We have Blue Jays center
fitter George Springer, who continues to get the job done
for a squad. On Wednesday, he had a soul shot
that was the difference in the one of the wind
over the Cleveland Guardians.
Speaker 14 (13:22):
And finally a drive to deep left field and it's gone.
Speaker 12 (13:29):
What is it?
Speaker 14 (13:29):
Bat for? George Springer on the thir chief pitch of
the vat.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Up next to number four.
Speaker 13 (13:37):
We have Pirates thirty basement key Brian Hayes, who's been
on fire lately. Last week he had nine hits with
a double, a triple and two home runs. His glove
has always been there, but now his bat is finally
coming around.
Speaker 14 (13:50):
We'll be able to extinguish Hayes, who there's been a
lot hader to deep shutter fred On to.
Speaker 8 (13:56):
The world, Hayes all the way over the shirt Fel.
Speaker 13 (14:02):
Long sitting in the three spot. We've got brave Centerfuuter Money.
Mike Harris was on a tear last week with eleven hits,
a double, two RBI and eight runs score.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
It's week's homeboy.
Speaker 15 (14:14):
It's Atlanta Braves center fielder Michael Harris the second and
man is he getting na I don't.
Speaker 13 (14:21):
Forget about his glove and center field and the Canada
of an army has us and and number two. This
week we have Washington Nationals young Ballerstone gear Let ourself
a huge day on Sunday, getting two hits with three
RBI is scoring a run and then eight seven win
over the Oakland A's.
Speaker 2 (14:36):
Here left a deep shuter shit you later.
Speaker 13 (14:41):
Finally number one on Chris Countdown, the story of the
week is actuals. First baseman John Singles said, lasting two
home runs on Friday and an eleven three win over
the La Angels. The home runs marked his first, says
twenty fifteen. That's it until next week. I'm young krit
and this has been Chris Coundown on the Mob Bro mixtape.
(15:01):
Now back to the mix.
Speaker 16 (15:11):
As seems are fighting for home field advantage, let's highlight
some bros who really been cooking to make an impactful
effort to the team's playoff race. Let's start with Byron
bucks In, centerfielder for the Minnesota Twins, number three in
the playoff picture. The Twins are leading the AL Central
Division with four and a half games, nine games ahead
to Detroit. I was rooting for the miracle story from Detroit,
but it seems unreleasted because Minnesota is really starting to
(15:32):
pull away. Buss has a winning contribution when he plays
on the season, has seventeen home runs, forty two RBA,
seven thirty two ops. Switching gears to potential Division Series
playoff matchup. The Rangers with Marcus Simmi are cruising in
the first round. By simmey Is, the twenty twenty three
All Star recipient is having a phenomenal season thus far.
His game August fifteenth versus La Angels, he's blasting triples
(15:55):
to ole field while holding a second base of positioned down.
Lastly a number one lead horse and AO Conference Baltimore
Orioles cannot stress enough how important Cedra Mullins is to
the team.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
While the team was down and dumb.
Speaker 16 (16:06):
Versus Padres Tuesday night, a game with him being totally dominated,
Mullen's single RBI top of the sixth inning while the
score was sind zero, he was able to get the
team on the board. Mullin's last seven games has been
nothing but spectacular. Eight his four runs, five rbi with
a three forty eight ban average. He's the kind of
guy you won your locker room. He fixed his game
up in crucial moments. Nevertheless, you cannot to forget the
(16:28):
Mitch guys like outfielder Michael Harris with the Lannon Breys,
who has a number one record in the MLB.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Devin Williams pitcher for.
Speaker 16 (16:34):
The Milwaukee Brewers and shortstop outfielder Mooie Best for the
LA Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
A group of.
Speaker 16 (16:39):
Hungry lions for a big time playmakers in the majors
with many more big moments away. As mlbbro dot Com
has covered everything black and brown and baseball as we
will be serving it up all season long right here
on mv bros Podcast. The mixtape I'm Devon Cook, Stay Hungry.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
L BRO Shortlight Cast Mixed Team is the soundtrack overseason.
Speaker 14 (17:02):
Lawrence Butler, who's looking for big league hit number one?
Down a fly at the left centerfield gap on the booms,
call out, Ball's gonna hit like one in the third
base going Soners Trumer, gonna hold it there, Lawrence Butler
as its first hit.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
As a double.
Speaker 17 (17:15):
A weekend series in Washington, DC saw the debut. One
more MLB broke who hails from the at L What
do Fozy chaboy Charles Jonger here and I'm bringing you
not jefs hot takes, but smart takes with Take that
on mlbbro dot com.
Speaker 5 (17:34):
Take that from mlbbroad dot Com.
Speaker 17 (17:39):
Lawrence Butler debut for the Oakland Athletics against the Washington
Nationals collected two hits and was dapped up by childhood
friend that shortstop CJ Abrams.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
I played CJS. I was like eight years old, so
high playing for DJN. To you when you get your
first double, Yeah, he was like a grass.
Speaker 17 (17:56):
T third base coach Eric Martin's it's his progression firsthand.
Speaker 18 (18:02):
Yeah, I saw Lawrence when he first signed. I had
a conversation with Lawrence right from the get go. I
just like, look, Lawrence, I said, you went out and
and your numbers weren't great, but you led the organization
at hard hit ball percentage to strict the strike zone,
make more contact. Your ball's going to go where it goes.
Just become an overall hitter.
Speaker 17 (18:17):
Butler releives that more can be done to increase black
representation from baseball.
Speaker 19 (18:22):
You know, you go to like the hood, you see
a baseball field just rundown, nobody using it. It's not
even a baseball field at that point. So we could
just get better fields and communities like that to where
we get better coaches. People start using it, get the
right coaches at that and it'll start coming along.
Speaker 17 (18:42):
The show. There must be something in the water down
in Atlanta, because Butler is just another member of that
tb As generation that is about to shock the system

Shot now based out Junta bomb blocks, black excellences, threatenings
in the medicine. It always spots the race. We always

Living George sprint at dignas he yankes quite as way

Speaker 20 (21:18):
Back to due shout out, Yo, what up It's call
and here's what's popping today.
Speaker 8 (21:34):
On mlb bro dot Com.
Speaker 21 (21:36):
The New York Yankees have put themselves in a tough
position as a team is currently in last place in
the Ale East Division. While the team has struggled throughout
the season, Aaron Judge is starting to trend upward at
the plate since his return from the IL. Despite missing
nearly a month, Judge has hit twenty two home runs
through sixty five games, which leads the team. This month,
(21:57):
Judge had a stint where he went hitless for four
consecutive games and then follow that up with a five
game hitting streak. We all know that Judge is one
of the best hitters in the game today, and it's
not easy getting back into the swing of things after
missing extensive time due to an injury. While Judge may
not surpass his home run total from last season, he
can still finish the season with a pretty good hitting percentage.
(22:18):
He's carrying a two eighty four average through those sixty
five games and has a six to twenty seven slug percentage.
It's hard not to think about what Judge's stats would
have looked like if he was healthy this season, but
you better believe he's going to be locked in every
time he steps up to the plate. That's what's popping
today on mlbbro dot com.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
For more right now, go to mlbbroad dot com.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
They need it more. It's like the pipeline is flooded
with players, but events and passed certain levels like compeating
against Mike Tyson, Mike Tyson punch out and I'm saying
the water Temple the legend at Zelda level. So we're
here to pour into these players and promote them as
much as possible with our talents.
Speaker 16 (23:06):
I love for the game.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
A better reason where we played the dream, we see
through the talents of our sons and daughters. We get
these black players a chance to be heard and seen
because despite the push for diversity in the game, number's
at the LB level of ding list. So nobody should
be walking around thinking they don't need our help. We
are frontlining this Black Baseball movement. If you're black and
(23:32):
you play baseball or culture manager, hold a position where
you influence the future of the game, that you owe
it to the community to help nurture the black generation
of baseball players same way we do.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
An MB Bro with our staff for over.
Speaker 4 (23:43):
Sixty young people between the ages of eighteen to fifty five.
We have every generation covered and our mission is to
help shine a light on our mess, talents and struggles
and trumps to black baseball players. Man, Come on, man
and normalize the culture so that we can support not
only players diverse and but diverse the personalities, police interest,
and upbringing.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
We gotta win.
Speaker 4 (24:07):
We gotta win, and we're gonna be the mouthpiece and
I'll be bro that brings attention to greatness. They just
gotta step away from it every day and tapping.
Speaker 10 (24:18):
I was a cat or playing in the back streets
almost every.
Speaker 22 (24:23):
Day, and I may away. Baseball is the game to play.
It's the field that take a cutup of swing, stole
the base culture that I was a part of. Don't
take it away, take it away. That's baseball part of me.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
Don't take it away, take it away.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
It's part of me.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
Yo, you can't take baseball from me. It's a part
of me. You've got a damn dummy.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
Some have tried and something hit. This is the rundown.
Next is the classic hits. George Springer had five hits
on opening day. Dave Roberts keeps winning like he's supposed
to be great. Jazz Chisholm has a vision for changing
the game, dude, the prism of strategy. We making our
way five two bombers with the ghetto persona put and
(25:21):
ketchup on earth things, street fighting pajamas. I swear to
your honor the Rosby spasm. Don't need NBA two K
for a night, but Madden just g to the captain
some late night heroics a night been in triple just
to say that the moment baseball was live when Jimmy
Ronins was holding Royce Lewis still waiting for his superstar moment.
(25:42):
Doctor Sticks had big plans to Brobama on the league.
But this golden gnam and suffering from fatigue. He'll be
back soon, Like I look for Twists and Fagan, the
awful doctor stadiums with movies blazing, take.
Speaker 22 (25:53):
Me your way, tagging away the baseball part of me,
don't take it away, don't take it away.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Just party baseball is it a part of me?
Speaker 5 (26:19):
Like how you're fighting against Its just the bill doing
oppression and being selective about the kind of black folks
you want in the game. Like for the stick hills
of Memphis and Georgia, where Yo got here and Killer
Mike rose out of inhumanly oppressive situations to become business
mobiles and feel the dreamer of a talented people of
(26:40):
color the streets.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
In the eighties.
Speaker 5 (26:44):
You know what I mean with dudes like Eric Davis
down doorway, rose up by the poverty, and it just
started because they were giving a chance and allowed to
be themselves. I mean, baseball should legislator swag Man. It's
a beautiful game with enough room for ayody and what
they bring.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
To the game, you know.
Speaker 2 (27:03):
I mean, the business of baseball is booming.
Speaker 15 (27:13):
Attendance is up nine percent across Major League Baseball. Baseball
has a chance to sell seventy million baseball tickets this season.
Speaker 23 (27:24):
A lot has to do with the rule changes, the
pitch clock, no shift, bigger bases, more stolen bases, all
that kind of stuff, also the balance schedule.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
But also at the forefront.
Speaker 15 (27:39):
Some of the best players in the game are black
and brown. Last year we saw Aaron Judge. This year,
Mookie Betts is having a phenomenal season. His name is
in the conversation for National League MVP.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
And there are all kinds of other young brothers coming
up in baseball.
Speaker 15 (28:02):
Jordan Walker busted onto the scene this season with the
Saint Louis Cardinals. Lawrence Butler is the latest MLB bro
to join the fray. With the Oakland A's, he had
his first home run in the big leagues. What a
good looking player. This guy is nice left handed hitter.
(28:24):
My goodness, gracious, baseball is thriving. The minor leagues has
plenty of young black players being groomed, ready to make
that next step. It's a good time in baseball when
you look around and see some of the young talent around,
especially when you're talking.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
About MLB bros, it's amazing. Baseball is our game.
Speaker 15 (28:51):
We're enjoying it just as much as everybody else in
baseball America, make no mistake about it. American pastime, the
national pastime.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Whatever you want to call it is alive. And well.
