What's up, everybody, I'm David Grovet.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
It's time for another edition of classic hits on the
MLB broch Show Podcast The Mixtape. The All Star Game
is rapidly approaching, so this week we're going back thirty
five years to one of the most famous All Star
Games ever played. In the summer of nineteen eighty nine,
there was an argument to be made that bo Jackson
was the.
Speaker 3 (01:06):
Most famous athlete in the world.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
He was in his fourth season as an outfielder for
the Kansas City Royals.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
In that fall.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
He would return to Los Angeles for his third season
playing for the NFL's Raiders. Besides that, bo was the
greatest video game athlete of all time thanks to his
inclusion in the legendary first edition of Techno Bowl. Bo
had been voted to represent the American League in his
first and unfortunately only All Star Game.
Speaker 5 (01:31):
One of the elite power.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Hitters in the game, Jackson was given the leadoff spot
due to his world class speed. Jackson said prior to
the game that he had never hit leadoff before in
his life, so he made that first time unforgettable. Facing
San Francisco's Rick Rushell and with his team already down
two runs, Jackson started the bottom of the first with
a towering blast.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
To dead center field.
Speaker 4 (01:52):
In the second inning, with the score tied at to
a piece, Jackson beat out a double playball that allowed
Ruben Sierra to score, picking up his second RBI of
the game. He followed that up with a stolen base,
making him the only player in All Star Game history
to homer and steal a bag.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
In the same game.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
The al All Stars wouldn't look back as they went
on to win five to three, with Jackson being named.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
The game's Most Valuable Player.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
Bo would finished the year fourth of the American League
in both home runs with thirty two and RBI with
one hundred and five. He did lead the league in
strikeouts with one hundred and seventy two, but hey, no
risk it, no biscuit.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
It was the peak of Bo's career.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
A career that was far too short, but was still
filled with herculean feats that have yet to be duplicated.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
The slogan was Bo nos Soo on that evening in Anaheim, California.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
It was the rest of the world that learned how
truly special he was as an athlete. At Timeless American Icon,
I'm David Grubb and this has been classic hits.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
Now back to the mix.
Speaker 6 (03:13):
To stay in the game, you gotta lock in a
lot of hard times, a lot of profit, a lot
of garbage, a lot of homage, a lot of promise,
even when you straight out of content.

the Montreal Expos in nineteen seventy four. Cromarty was a
part of that vaulted young outfield in Montreal that featured
Ellen Valentine and Wright Andre Dawson in center and Warren

bro dot.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Com signing with the Giants.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
Your transition from reliever to starting out.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
How it's it been for you? It's been fun.
Speaker 5 (11:06):
I'd say that's the main thing for me. S get out.
Speaker 8 (11:09):
Let's go out here and.
Speaker 14 (11:11):
Actually enjoy the game, like have more reps throughout a
full game, and go as many innings as you can
be soides like when you're in the bullpen, you get
one inning and say you had really good stuff that day,
like dang, I wish I could have gone more in
it's or something like that.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
So I'd say that's the biggest thing for me. I'm
enjoying it more now being being the starter.
Speaker 14 (11:33):
Different ways you throw gas so with it, like pacing
yourself now as to you when you're in the bullpen,
you could go out.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
And just let it rip.
Speaker 14 (11:39):
Yeah, I mean it's all about Phil. I'd say, like, yes,
two days ago and Arizona was really hot, and then
I just felt good that day. So I was sitting
like ninety six ninety seven top to ninety nine. And
then there's days where I'm in San Francisco it's a
little chillier, a little folder and sitting like ninety three
top in ninety five. So it's just like listening to
your body, knowing what you got, that Dan sussing your
(12:02):
stuff that no matter what the velocity is, do you
lokay good action, you speak good.
Speaker 8 (12:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
It's sponsored by MLB Pro because you need to know.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Age of poor, black Age Report, Black Age Report. It's
the Black Age Report, Black Age Report, Black as Report.
Speaker 5 (12:27):
What's up everybody?
Speaker 15 (12:28):
This is justin Patruley with the Black Age Report on
the MLB Bro Show podcast mixtape. Here's where you get
the latest on the mellanated Malt marauders who are shoving
with precision and popping out all across the big leagues.
So let's check the report. Hunter Green has just etched
his name into Red's history. On June thirtieth, Green went
four and two thirds innings and allowed only one run. However,
(12:50):
Green also managed to strike out six batters, making that
start in the seventeenth game to open the season where
he has struck out at least five batters, the longest
streak to open a Red season since nineteen oh one.
The longest creak in Red's history of starts with at
least five strikeouts at any point in the season is eighteen,
which was set in nineteen eighty two. He'll have the
(13:10):
opportunity to tie that record on his next start, which
would be scheduled for July sixth against the Tigers at home.
TODs Bradley had an outstanding gay on the Mount on
June thirtieth against the Nationals. He only went five and
two thirds innings and faced twenty two batters, but of
those twenty two batters, he managed to send half of
them down on strikes with eleven. Those eleven strikeouts are
(13:31):
tied for his career high, as is the second time
this month he's managed to get to eleven k's. He
has been on fire his past five starts, with a
one point two four ERA and forty strikeouts on.
Speaker 5 (13:42):
Twenty nine innings pitched.
Speaker 15 (13:43):
Tristan McKenzie was optioned to the Guardian's Triple A affiliate
in Columbus on June thirtieth in order to give their
twenty six year old pitcher a much needed reset. This
has been Doctor six's worst start to a season in
his career, as he has allowed the most home runs
of any pitcher with nineteen, as well as the most
walks at nine. This certainly was not in mackenzie's plan
this season, but it is certainly what he needs as
(14:05):
the Guardians have their eyes set on October and they
will need McKenzie to be the killer flame throwers that
he's shown he could be.
Speaker 10 (14:11):
It had been going so well for.
Speaker 15 (14:13):
Josiah Gray in his work of recovery, as all signs
pointing to his return coming very soon, But on July second,
Gray revealed that he felt some discomfort and fatigue in
his right elbow after his most recent rehab outing. Nationals
manager Dave Martinez announced that Gray would receive an MRI
for a clearer picture on the severity of his injury,
as Gray will be shut down until at least the
(14:33):
All Star break. That's the black As Report for this week.
This is JP the rook Now back to the mix o,
g Mar.
Speaker 10 (14:39):
Gray always got some to say.
Speaker 16 (14:41):
Somebody forgot to tell the Washington National stat you can't
win with African.
Speaker 8 (14:45):
American ball players.
Speaker 16 (14:47):
Now with James Wood getting the call up, prospects for
Chocolate City being recognized on the diamond continued and move forward,
hit your boy, damnlbog Mark Gray and I'm going for
the mixtape. Believe it or not, you got people in
DC that were calling the day that James Wood came
up from Rochester.
Speaker 8 (15:07):
James Wood Day.
Speaker 16 (15:10):
That's right, the Nationals brilliant prospect who was fleeced from
the San Diego Padres by Mike Grizzo as part of
the one Soto trade.
Speaker 8 (15:20):
His time is now.
Speaker 16 (15:22):
But you think about it when Josiah crag gets back
into the rotation, that gives him one brother on the
hill who's an All Star.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
I'm hard pressed to believe that CJ.
Speaker 16 (15:32):
Abrams won't get the call and a free plane ticket
to Dallas this year. And now there's would the Nationals
could potentially have four starters in the lineup at one time. Again,
that's like the soul patrol from the New York Yankees
of the late nineties. They turned it around with a
brother in the front office and brothers getting it in
(15:54):
on the field, and the Nationals, though they don't have
anybody necessarily pushing the buttons in the front office, they
have a general manager, a vice president of baseball operations,
and Mike Grizzo, who gets it from the ground up,
and two years ago he made arguably one of the
greatest trades.
Speaker 8 (16:13):
Of his generation.
Speaker 16 (16:15):
When you know you're not gonna sign Juan Soto and
you can get cj. Abrams, Mackenzie Gore and James Wood
with two other players, you have effectively done your job.
And O Yai, by the way, they're guys to often
lift service, but when you get right down to it,
Grizzo sees no color in baseball.
Speaker 8 (16:36):
He is after the best talent, and that means you're gonna.
Speaker 16 (16:39):
Have quite a few bros in the nation's capital helping
to turn things around. It's your boy, Mark Gray, the
mlbog and I'm going deep for the mixtape.
Speaker 6 (17:02):
It's a book, The Roses Backs, the Focus Back, get
your a doose of Baseball, Bess Black and Brown Ballers
with the MLB bro Show on sports rapp Radium every Saturday,
nine innings. Exposed to bros. That our mission by too baseball,
(17:25):
talking fools, the cash rules, the league, ranking the ball
arf doing interviews Dante Moles and so happens with what's Poppins?
Speaker 5 (17:32):
The Game's gonna push back on all.
Speaker 6 (17:34):
False doctory Gary Champell Junior with this black baseball analysis
Kings of swings they sposed to sound to it Rose,
you need to know. Shout out to Jackie Robinson, the
coacher has a voice. The bros are on the job
again happens.
Speaker 5 (18:04):
Tears out of time on the all.
Speaker 10 (18:06):
Time bigger than pros.
Speaker 5 (18:20):
Would the NFV.
Speaker 6 (18:21):
Broke hold we got all pros, pro bros. Put it
up your nose, Bros. Black baseball Bros. Hold it in
the snow cone, keep it in the striping zone, cheesing
in the postseason, in the ghost previous spit and backs
like black Jesus boy see is called Lee Smith just
closing season on your knees, back stop and cash. These
(18:43):
slow breedings like jazz Chi's a mama culture breedo.
Speaker 5 (18:46):
This man lit.
Speaker 6 (18:47):
When the Brother featured the Black Price Harper, the White
Ball of salt digging ditches, murder on them stitches, three strikes,
three wishes, heat on the dishes, block spinning hitman would
beat us on, but gifted Alex Thomas and Tommy Fann.
We thank you for repping the brand. The bro flow
was in the men like Jimmy Rollins with the glove
(19:07):
in his hand. I never met up he that was
finding the man. The Bro's coming, blowing light. Ten blunts
told the acl and be back at six months. Melanated
masses who cooked blast in blue. Dusty Bigger got his ring.
No longer can they stunt what a brother gotta do together?
Even deal fly time one fifteen. They treat him like
(19:28):
a baby seal put them on the bench like he
didn't lead the team and wins. Now it's the long summer.
Cars shrubbers in the night and got pros pro pros.
Speaker 5 (19:36):
Put it up your nose, Bros.
Speaker 6 (19:37):
Black they spalled pros cold in the snow cold, keep
it in this striking snope season in the postseason and
the ghost great split in backs like black seasons Kaarn
Seas Colee Smith Fitzcals in season on your knees, backstopping
Cashe's slow breeders like Jazz Sison. I'm a coach, a breeder.
Speaker 5 (19:54):
It's madli when the bros Are.
Speaker 6 (19:56):
Featured, Marcus si and Brent Anderson, Tommy fam Alec Thomas
Gambler KRP on productions.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
We've done it again.
Speaker 6 (20:09):
Miami Marlin shortstopped Tim Anderson has been DFA by the franchise.
The former batting champion who hit three thirty five and
had four consecutive seasons of hitting three hundred, is now
a free agent of sorts. They've released him. He's all
gone downhill and as many rumors going around as to
why he's only had one home run in his last
(20:31):
seven hundred plus at Bass and four home runs in
over eight hundred at Bass and why his game is
just deteriorated. I'm not hating on what anybody does off
the field, but it reports on Miami Marlin shortstopped Tim
Anderson having another side piece or true, then we already
know what this means for a baseball career that is
(20:52):
hanging on by a thread.
Speaker 5 (20:54):
In some circles, he would be goaded.
Speaker 6 (20:56):
But as a public figure and at one time one
of the face is a baseball not too sure. I
don't usually do the gossip thing. But word on the
street is that Tim and a new book were identified
as having matching tattoos and being involved in a relationship.
Speaker 10 (21:13):
Like I said, Tim's.
Speaker 5 (21:15):
Business is Tim's business.
Speaker 6 (21:16):
But if you follow the decline of his career, you
can trace it back to his first affair in twenty
twenty two with ig model Deja La Nae, which produced
a child. And now with these latest developments. Something's going
on with him. When that mess in twenty twenty two
went down with his sidepiece and his wife arguing and
(21:38):
posting content airing dirty laundry over the social media, it
was a bad look and it was the start of
the end for him. On the field, he started losing
his power at the back, hitting just seven homers in
eight hundred and twenty five played appearances across the twenty
twenty two to twenty three seasons, after reaching double digits
in the previous five seasons with the higher twenty home
(22:00):
runs to go along with the career high twenty six
steals in twenty eighteen. But in Tim Anderson's last seven
hundred and eleven at bats he has one home run.
I don't know what's going on with Tim, but when
your personal life is out there like that and your
wife mustn't dore these humiliations. Good things aren't likely going
(22:21):
to happen, and it probably means you're not focused. Hope
Ta straightens this thing out and more importantly, gets his
career straightened out before it's too late.
Speaker 2 (22:34):
As we go on, it's baseball times.
Speaker 17 (22:39):
Ever.
Speaker 6 (22:42):
We got that baseball block that NLB leaned from the
ball to the block and triple BA steams.

Speaker 6 (22:50):
Jump shot, basepost a long shot. Now they stops turn

Malik Right always knows Malik Right. At the top five Bros.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
That's behind five start us off with July.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
Coming in number one is Aaron James.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
Aaron Judge found out that he would be an All
Star for the fifth time in his career just a
little over a week ago after leading all American League players.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
In phase one of the voting.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
That puts in fourth all time in appearance among Yankee outfielders,
trailing Hall of Fame MLB bro Dave Winfield, Joe DiMaggio
and Mickey Mantle. In his last seven games, Judges slashing
four eighty five point fifty two with an eight forty
OBP with eight RBI, three home runs and has recorded
multiple hits in six of his last eight games entering Thursday.
(25:31):
Coming in at number two is Tampa Bay Ray's right
handed fireball at TAJ Bradley. Bradley got the winning tied
the career high with eleven strikeouts in five and two
third shutout innings against the Nationals. Bradley is another MLB
bro from the Atlanta, Georgia pipeline that has sent him
influx of talent to the majors over the last few years,
(25:53):
including former Rookie of the Year Money Mike Harris, Lawrence Butler,
and Will Benson among others. Coming in at number three
is George Dinger Springer. He's been on a heater over
the last seven games, hitting over four hundred with three
home runs, eleven RBI and a nine to fifty two
slugging percentage. He was also MLB Bros Homeboy Highlights feature.
(26:15):
The Blue Jays are in the basement of the American
League East, so it's important that Springer stays hot. Coming
in at four, it's the young boy in the block,
CJ Sizzle. CJ. Abrams had a June banning average of
three seventy three, which ranked him in the top ten
among all Major leaguers for the month. He's done all
he can to earn first career All Star NB this weekend.
(26:37):
He's on a pace for a possible thirty thirty season
and leads the Nets in almost all hitting categories.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
Abrams is going to play a key role.
Speaker 6 (26:45):
In the development of top prospect James Wood, who was
called up from Triple A earlier this week and coming
in at number five, might be a bit of a surprise,
but the boy is coming justin Henry molloy j h
M of The Detroit Times. He hit home runs in
back to back days for the first time in his
career this week, flexing his legs with an inside the
(27:07):
park home run and then showing his power turning on
an inside pitch and hitting it over the left field wall.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
In addition, he posted a three h four.
Speaker 6 (27:16):
Batting average to earn himself the final spot on week
fourteen of Malik Rights High five list for mlbbro dot com'stimistic.
Speaker 21 (27:27):
All that boss cranked justin Henry malloy loo fielded a
way out of here that baseball was each opt to
break two to one Tigers League his first one at
Comerica Park.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Instead, look at c J.
Speaker 6 (27:58):
Abrams. He's catched and all that rookie slack. Now it's
that it's blazing. He wanted to bring the city back.
That's how we do with When CJ. Brock is fitted
captain Nats a rerep in DC, it's time to bring
the city back. Sixty three, long and lanky with a
blister of the bend of Bros. Got the Neats myna
elague system back to one solo trade. Mike Brizi wants
(28:21):
to fade you, not out far in the GM who've
been nice for days. That's the letther fall in the hole.
Speaker 5 (28:27):
Yet he getting that spinning on his back. Make the throw, yo.
Speaker 6 (28:31):
He offer at another Georgia boy employed to recon destroy
the MLB bro scene. So high lights your boy average
creeping up Homer's double digits. The Nats are in the
cut with the tunnel vision and as the team grows,
so will Abrams game. This ain't that team flow. Aprams
already in the game, and you see the progression as
(28:54):
he's rising from fame. He's learning to win walk offs,
homers and missiles. This ain't the new and Abrams.
Speaker 8 (29:01):
Yo.
Speaker 5 (29:01):
We don't double dripple.
Speaker 6 (29:02):
He hits the doubles and triples. The effected ripple number
fives in this.
Speaker 20 (29:06):
But CJ.
Speaker 6 (29:07):
April he's catching off that rookie slack. Now what's baddest places.
He wants to bring the city back.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
That's how we do it with c J.
Speaker 6 (29:15):
Boctis fled captain. That's of reping DC. It's time to
bring the sifty back.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Look at CJ.
Speaker 6 (29:21):
Abels, he's catching off that rookie slack.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
Now, what's baddest placing.
Speaker 6 (29:25):
He wants to bring the city. That that's how we
do it with c J.
Speaker 5 (29:29):
Boctus fitted captain.
Speaker 6 (29:30):
That's of reping DC.
Speaker 5 (29:32):
It's time to bring the city.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
It's the right day.
Speaker 6 (29:51):
Tampa Bay raised fireballer TAJ Bradley has been blowing it
up lately, dominant in his last five games. Look for
him to continue to elevate as a new MLB bro.
Mellanated male Marada on the scene.
Speaker 5 (30:06):
Would it be.
Speaker 6 (30:07):
Foul affair to say that the Tampa Bay Rays, who
are now over five hundred, have a shot to make
the playoffs with TODJ.
Speaker 5 (30:15):
Bradley emerging as their new ace.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
MLB bro show.
Speaker 8 (30:21):
Fair.
Speaker 6 (30:22):
This kid has been incredible in his last five stars.
Since Bradley's June won outing against Baltimore in which he
surrendered nine of the twenty one runs and four of
the ten home runs he's given up all season, he
hasn't given up more than two runs in his last
five outings, and after Sundays five nothing shut out of
the Nationals where he went five and two thirds innings
(30:45):
and fan eleven, giving up zero runs, Bradley's now surrendered
just four runs in his last twenty nine innings and
he's put down forty batters with his array of pitches.
We know Bradley has an explosive arm and throws an
average of ninety six miles per hour. The Georgia product
throws a four scene almost half of the time and
(31:07):
then mixes in his split her about twenty eight percent
of the time, his hardcutter about twenty percent of the time,
and he also has the ability to drop a curve
ball and decrease velocity after all of that hard stuff
that he delivers.
Speaker 5 (31:21):
He throws that less than ten percent of the time.
Speaker 6 (31:24):
The Tampa Bay Rays have been fighting to reach the
five hundred mark all season, and they finally peeked their
heads above that mark on Sunday. They are within wild
card reach and when the All Star Break hits, they
should still be five or less games within reach of
that third wildcard spot. That's basically a hot week and
a half. Browley has always had the stuff. Remember when
(31:45):
he came out in his rookie season and was up
and down but showed flashes of great potential, won his
first couple of games and showed you he has the
raw skills to be an All Star. And now that
he's blossoming before our eyes and with him elevating into
an East quality armed look out for the Tampa Bay Rays,
the farm system is doing what it do.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
It's sponsored by MLB bro because you need to know.
Speaker 8 (32:14):
This Negro League legend was so nice.
Speaker 16 (32:16):
He pitched until he was almost sixty years old, and
despite his age, when he came to the MLB Show,
he was still dealing.
Speaker 6 (32:25):
What's your boy?
Speaker 8 (32:25):
Mark greating the DMV.
Speaker 3 (32:27):
You are wherever you are.
Speaker 22 (32:29):
Let's check out how they did it. Black in the
Day on mlbbro dot Com.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
MLB bro presents Black in the Day.
Speaker 16 (32:40):
Satchel Paige was a mythic figure in the annals of
baseball history, and there's a compelling argument that he was
the best pitcher ever.
Speaker 8 (32:46):
Page finished with the career.
Speaker 16 (32:47):
Mark of one four eighty two and an ERF two
point seventy three, but he wasn't allowed to compete against
his major league counterparts until he was nearly fifty years old.
The crafty right hander and his professional career in nineteen
twenty six with the Chattanooga Black Lookouts of the Negro
Southern League and became one of the most famous and
successful players in.
Speaker 8 (33:08):
Negro League history.
Speaker 16 (33:09):
Legend has it that when his team toured around the country,
Page would sometimes sit his infielders down behind him, then routinely.
Speaker 8 (33:18):
Strikeout the side.
Speaker 16 (33:19):
At age forty two, in nineteen forty eight, Paige Major's
debut in the majors for the Cleveland Indians, which to
this day makes him the oldest player in history to
debut in the National or American League. By the way,
he was fifty nine years old when he played his
last major league game, which is another record that stands today.
Page also was the first black pitcher to pitch in
(33:40):
the American League and was just the seventh black player
at the time.
Speaker 8 (33:43):
To play in Major League baseball.
Speaker 16 (33:45):
Also in nineteen forty eight, Page became the first player
who had played in the Negro Leagues to pitch in
the World Series.
Speaker 8 (33:53):
Cleveland won that series that year.
Speaker 16 (33:54):
He played with the Saint Louis Browns also from nineteen
fifty one to nineteen fifty three, representing the team in
the All Star Game in nineteen fifty two and fifty three.
This last professional game came on June twenty first, nineteen
sixty six, for the Peninsula Grades of the Carolina League,
just two weeks shot of his sixtieth birthday. Then in
(34:15):
nineteen seventy one, Page became the first electee of the
Negro League Committee to be inducted into the Baseball Hall
of Fame.
Speaker 22 (34:23):
And that's how the Bros got down Black in the Day.
I'm Mark Gray for mlbbro dot Com.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
MLB bro presents Black in the Day. It's sponsored by
MLB bro because you need to know.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
So that's what it is.
Speaker 5 (34:43):
You already know.
Speaker 19 (34:44):
The twenty three World Cities, Texas wins the Rose Market,
Senior Grand and Fini Rose. They played Tommy Fan Now
this Thomas clanking the upper hitty bang bang.
Speaker 5 (34:54):
The brows are like a chain game of Leon'll do
the same thing perfected. The slang slang came. The sad
lot mostly didn't have much. Pops made the sacrifice.
Speaker 8 (35:04):
Long for to the goal for a goal.
Speaker 6 (35:05):
Does he Brian, He's got a gold Bob Jordan walk
his hands out them. It's like a cone crush and
he threw one hundred pitches in. It's often to show
much or we do is give you based go when
it's so touch to diversity is just what we stop for.
The black Blue passes with its stats by the side
door and on base percentage that the killers will die

Speaker 5 (35:29):
It's gonna be broke show. It's never faded thing amazing.
He places the cages, take it to the ball, pops
back to the field. Average judgment at sixty.
Speaker 6 (35:40):
Two launch for records should produce it or base off
into for the souss and continue to bruse like things
music to say it's gonna be bro show mixtape. So
in seasons, Megan Dry she at the time it's left

Speaker 5 (37:57):
Watch me do it by the cloud say oh yeah,
oh oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah. All season,
(38:17):
Young Kris. He had to tell you about the bro Bombers.
Speaker 6 (38:20):
He didn't tell you about mo drama, Young Krit.
Speaker 5 (38:23):
Let him know who's on your top MLB bros.
Speaker 10 (38:26):
What's up, everybody?
Speaker 23 (38:27):
This is young Krit and this is mine weeks He
cound out with the biggest plays made by mb bros
over the past seven days. This week, come you get
a number five. We had Washington National shortstop CJ. Abrams,
who had himself for d on Saturday, hitting an RBI
double and belting a solo shot and an eight to
one win over the Tampa Bay Rays. Up next to
number four, we have Rangers outfitter Derek Hill. We had
(38:50):
three home runs over two games over the weekend, including
two on Satnday Night Baseball, an eleven to two win
over the Baltimore Orioles. Sitting in the three spots, we
got to rookie Justin Henry Malloy, who homed in back
to back games last week, bringing his season total up
to four but more importantly we've seen him per couple
bit over the past week, and at number two this
week be a Washington Nationals type prospect, James Woods, who
(39:13):
made his debut on Monday to a standing ovation, and
he also got his first career hit in the process. Finally,
number one on Chris Countdown, Toronto Blue Jays centerfeuter George Springer,
who has been speaking a hot bed of lake, had
a seven game hitting streak that included two doubles and
four her runs during that stretch. That's it until next week.
I'm Young krit and it has been Chris Countdown on
the MLB Borough Show podcast.
Speaker 10 (39:34):
Makes Safe.
Speaker 8 (39:35):
Now back to the mix.
Speaker 24 (39:44):
American League East Division may be the most competitive division
this season, with the Baltimore Oriols are positioned number one.
Speaker 10 (39:50):
Division.
Speaker 24 (39:51):
Yankees are two and a half games behind, and the
Red Sox are sloted third. The Oriols are currently the
best hitting team in the league number one a team
home runs and rbi.
Speaker 10 (39:59):
But what may your focus?
Speaker 24 (40:00):
That may be an underrated stat is a team strength
on the defensive end, Cedric Mullins had a strong impact
for the team. He's starting to get in the groove
in the last fifteen games, fifty at bast sixteen hits,
non runs, three home runs, seven rbut with a three
twenty bad average. But that's not why mulleins is having
the great season. It's his ability to flow the round
at the defensive end. Currently with the best fielding percentage
(40:22):
in the league at the center field. It's precisely a
gold Glove season. Then we have the great Yankees versus
Red Sox rivalry, which is one of the oldest, most famous,
in fiercest rivalry in all of American sports, more than
one hundred years of chance competition. One player to watch
his New York Yankee center field Aaron Judge. He received
the most votes for the All Star Game. He's All
(40:42):
Star started for the center field and he received his second.
Speaker 10 (40:44):
Player of the Month for the month of June.
Speaker 5 (40:46):
But it's not surprising.
Speaker 24 (40:48):
On the season, Judge has ninety eight hits, sixty seven runs,
thirty two home runs, eighty three rb out with a
three to fourteen bad average league the league and home
runs in RBI. This may be a record breaking season,
as we will be saying, bring it up, oh season
long right errold MLB Brothers podcast that makes say I'm
Devine Cook, Stay Huggy.
Speaker 6 (41:22):
Let's go to Brett quin Tyme with Prince Reps on
MLB Pro Show podcast.
Speaker 5 (41:27):
The Least two guys, two very special guys.
Speaker 25 (41:34):
One War number thirty one, the other War Number thirty nine,
both named Dave.
Speaker 5 (41:39):
One's in the Hall of Fame and one is.
Speaker 25 (41:42):
And let's stop the guessing games and start the comparisons.
I'm talking about Dave Winfield and Dave Parker, both men
born in nineteen fifty one, and they both made their
big league debut in nineteen seventy three in the National League,
first time All Stars together in nineteen seventy seven, and
one took the college route directly to the majors and
(42:03):
the other went the more traditional route of spending time
in the minor leagues. Let's have a look at the
two ogs who dominated the seventies and the eighties. David
Mark Winfield, he was a dude stud whatever you want
to call him at the University of Minnesota. Know that
he could play and succeed at whatever he wanted. To
Big Ten Championship in basketball, MVP of the College World
(42:28):
Series as a pitcher at six foot six the Minnesota Vikings.
Speaker 3 (42:32):
His home state.
Speaker 25 (42:34):
They took a potential chance on him as well, But
in the end, baseball and right field was his calling
and he never spent the day in the minor leagues.
He put up some good numbers before being named to
that nineteen seventy seven All Star team. But you want
to talk about good numbers, how about David nineteen seventy five,
(42:55):
twenty five homers, one hundred and one runs, batted in third,
and the MVP balloting, but didn't make the All Star
team that season. Interesting the next few seasons, these guys
saw mammoths success getting it done.
Speaker 6 (43:10):
Tell them about the Cobra Dave Pak.
Speaker 25 (43:12):
Nation League batting champion in nineteen seventy seven, and he
repeated that feat in nineteen seventy eight, where he was
also the league's MVP. For Winfield, he would lead the
league in RBI with one hundred and eighteen and nineteen
seventy nine, while Parker was helping the Pirates win the
World Series.
Speaker 3 (43:31):
Things started to.
Speaker 25 (43:32):
Shift a little bit as we rounded out this seventies
and got into the eighties. Parker he would sign baseball's
first million dollar contract, and soon after Winfield would leave
San Diego to become a New York Yankee and become
baseball's highest paid player the Yankees.
Speaker 5 (43:49):
They didn't have great.
Speaker 25 (43:50):
Team success in the eighties, but don't pin that on Winfield.
He was an All Star every year, won five Gold
Gloves with the Yankees and also five Silver Slugger Awards
during that time period. Parker, he battled through some injuries
in that decade, but to show you what type of
player he was, he still garnered All Star status four
(44:12):
times and was second in the NLMVP voting with Cincinnati
in nineteen eighty five.
Speaker 5 (44:18):
Just giving you a sample of what these guys did.
Speaker 25 (44:21):
Winfield had five straight one hundred RBI seasons in the eighties,
and Parker in eighty five and eighty six, he combined
for sixty five home runs and two hundred and forty
one runs batted in Wow before ending his career in
nineteen ninety one. Parker he won a World Series with
the Oakland A's in nineteen eighty nine and one last
(44:43):
Silver Slugger Award in nineteen ninety. Winfield's career ended in
nineteen ninety five. He had his last good season with
the Toronto Blue Days in nineteen ninety two. Helping them
win a World Series titled twenty six homers, one hundred
and eight runs batted in, and a Silver Slugger Award
to boot.
Speaker 3 (45:03):
These are two dudes right here.
Speaker 25 (45:05):
Old school bros, with ten gold gloves between them. Parker,
he was probably a bit more flash here, but Winfield
was more consistent for a longer period of time. Parker
had a career batting average of two ninety, very impressive.
Winfield he finished up at two eighty three. Winfield, however,
had more than one hundred career homers than Parker and
(45:28):
way more than three hundred rbi more than Parker. But
I think the Hall of Fame difference is that magical
three thousand hit mark thirty one ten for Dave Winfield.
That's almost four hundred more than Dave Parker number thirty nine.
He had a great career, but I think the numbers
that I just mentioned is what's keeping the Cobra out
(45:50):
of Cooperstown. He's in the Red Hall of Fame and
the Pirates Hall of Fame.
Speaker 3 (45:55):
That'll have to do for now.
Speaker 25 (45:57):
Both men they played for sixteen in their career, and
we can go back to the first four games of
the nineteen ninety one season for the California Angels. Look
at the lineup. Dave Winfield batted fourth, Dave Parker batted fifth.
Thanks for the memories, Fellas.
Speaker 5 (46:18):
Or wings.
Speaker 3 (46:19):
Obvious, baseball is a game of stats.
Speaker 5 (46:23):
I'm se basketball, and I'm.
Speaker 3 (46:24):
The numbers pick.
Speaker 17 (46:27):
Derrek Hill has bounced around teams in his short MLB
career so far, but he has started his Rangers tenure
on hot form. With Hill destroying the baseball so far
in Texas, he may be able to find his footing
in the major leagues as a reliable and damaging bat.
Derek Hill started his career in Detroit before moving to
(46:49):
the Nationals in twenty twenty three, and after only one
year in Washington, Hill finds himself on a Rangers team
just off the back of a World Series winning campaign,
and he has not disappointed so far. In ten games
for the Rangers, Hill has notched a one to forty
nine way to runs created plus and he is destroying
the baseball, as shown by his four to twenty expected
(47:10):
weighted on base average, his three to twenty three expected
batting average and six thirty expected seleven percentage all show
that while his results have been impressive, his bat at
ball numbers have been even more insane. Of course, a
fifteen percent barrel percentage and a fifty percent hard hit
rate are not going to be easy to maintain, but
(47:31):
even if he regresses with the beast slightly, he will
still be a far above average piece in the Rangers
lineup for this pair. With his one out above average
in the outfield so far shows that Hill provides all
around impact that the Rangers will need. With the Rangers
struggling more thanated last season, Derek Hill could be the
(47:52):
kickstarter that they need to restore their American League West
Division hopes.
Speaker 2 (48:02):
Ryan keep Firing, You're really.
Speaker 6 (48:05):
The best bet.
Speaker 18 (48:08):
This is your man, Ryan Hope frommbbro dot Com coming
at you with Ryan's rationale from the clubhouse, where I'll
pick three winners for this weekend in Major League Baseball.
Speaker 2 (48:17):
Ryan, keep Firing.
Speaker 18 (48:19):
Our first matchup takes us to Progressive Field, Cleveland, Ohio,
Friday night, where we have the San Francisco Giants versus
the Cleveland Guardians. Cleveland Guardian is one of the best
teams at home in the American League, standing at twenty
eight to nine. Friday, we have Tanner Baby on the
mound for the Guardians. Look for him to have a
good game. I think he controls the game from the
mount a strong outing going around six to seven innings. Froze,
(48:43):
Josh Naylor, Bowl Naylor, Jose Ramirez and the rest of
that Guardians offense, spark send and gets it done come
away with a strong victory at home over the Giants.
Speaker 2 (48:53):
Ryan keep firing.
Speaker 18 (48:55):
Our next matchup takes us the Great American Ballpark, Cincinnati,
Ohio on Saturday. Out the Detroit Tigers versus Cincinnati Reds. Saturday,
we have Hunter Green, the machine on the mound for
the Reds. Hunter has had a couple so so starts
the last two weeks. This week, I think Hunter gets
it done at home, comes out with a strong performance,
helps the Reds come away with the victory. Look for
(49:17):
the Reds lineup led La Cruz, Jonathan India, Will Benson
and the rest of the Rents offense to spark them
and team the Tigers to come with the victory at
home on Saturday.
Speaker 2 (49:27):
Ryan keep firing.
Speaker 18 (49:30):
Our last matchup takes since the Target Field in Minneapolis,
Minnesota on Sunday, where we have the Minnesota Twins versus
the Houston Astros Stros versus Twins. Good matchup on Sunday.
Simmon Woods Richard centers on the mound for the Twins Bros.
Byron Buckston has just been on a tear of late,
with five hits over his last twelve at bats with
two home runs. Game will be really good, but I
(49:53):
think the Twins as Stros at home in a close one.
Speaker 2 (49:57):
Ryan, keep firing.
Speaker 5 (49:59):
You're real the best bet Rational.
Speaker 10 (50:03):
Now back to the mix.
