I'll stick around for a weekend hob nobbin and let's
be rocking out. Look out for earthquakes East Coast. My
parents freaked out this morning.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Back on the.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
East Coast, you play four point eight earthquake. No, I'm
not taking any chances.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Could you play ten seconds of you now? Won't do it?
I did say anything bad?
Speaker 1 (01:23):
No, not doing it. Uh there's too many Yeah, not
doing it. So my parents called me up freaking out
early this morning, like, oh my gosh, I'm so scared,
I'm gonna have a heart attack.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
And it was a four point eight. But it's not
even about that.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
There's a lot of pompous West Coast people who lived
through crazy earthquakes. I get it, but it's the element
of surprise. You're not expecting that. In New Jersey first time,
everybody thought it was their boiler exploding. People thought the
house was gonna fall down. People didn't know what it
was because again, you don't expect that four points a
shock factor. So anyway, guid your safe East Coast everybody else.
(02:04):
Hope you're enjoying your Friday. I'm glad my parents are okay.
They could have had a heart attack. My brother was
on the Bowl when it happened.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
What fault line was that I didn't even know.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
I don't know, no idea. It's your fault. Good line,
it's just your fault.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Fault.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
It's the part in Donald Trump's hair, my fault live anyway, Yeah,
they called me out this morning, and it's like, Yo,
that happens every few months out here in LA. But again,
weekend begins. Enjoy your college basketball, your show, Hey, drama,
The drama continues, Bronnie James in the News. We have
lots to get to. Plus, like I said, weekend hobnobbing.
(02:42):
What you need to watch this weekend aside from college basketball,
you have the same.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Level of excitement to watch tonight. It's Kellen Clark versus
Yukon game.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Sure, I mean I'll sit there and check it out,
put it on, put my feet up, and enjoy. For
me personally, this is a weekend of recovery. I think
I've been running on fumes on empty. I've been running
on Vic's DayQuil all week. So this weekend, starting tonight,
watching his game is just all about laying there recovering.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Don't bother me sort of weekend.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Oh, I'm very excited to just lay there and watch
some basketball.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
I'm not really invested in a prett day pretty pretty.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Meaning the outcome doesn't really affect me. I just want
to see a good game.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Ending to one of the grittish shows ever, Curby Your Enthusiasm,
the final ever.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Episode of Sunday Night. So that's something look forward to.
But you're not caught up.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
I'm not saying you're the only guy, but your only
guy that's talking to me about it. Is there a
big buzz on it this season? I like curbyr Enthusiasm,
I like Larry David. These are big buzz. Yeah, it's
the final season, the final episode. You're the only guy
I here talking about it. But I'm not saying you're
the only guy liking it. I'm just saying I haven't
heard it's been that great. It's been on since the
year two thousand.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
In, there hasn't it.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I'm talking about this season, twelve seasons, over twenty years.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I've watched a show. I'm just not raging about it
the way you are. I haven't heard a lot about it.
I also know it's WrestleMania weekend. A lot of people
dedicating their whole weekend to WrestleMania.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Enjoy that.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
I would say WrestleMania and Curb that's a couple things
to look forward to.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Hey, whatever floats your taco boat, whatever gets you excited,
enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
It's gonna be tacobo. I'll be watching.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Baseball, little basketball, Like I said, recovering so I could
bring my best on Monday, because starting Monday, that Dan
Patrick hat trick begins. We're gonna be filling in for DP.
But right now, happy to be here hanging with you again.
I'm Steve Cavino. That is Rich Davis. Spot us here,
Danny G what's up?
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Yo?
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Well, what's up? Happy Friday?
Speaker 3 (04:47):
I'll tell you what's up.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
What's up with your Dodgers? That's what I want to know.
What's up with their week? Ass PR team and the show? Hey, story,
what is going? And you know we are going to
get to it.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
We're gonna dig in deeper because Danny spent the morning
and I think think later.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
In the show maybe Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
The woman, the woman that caught the ball that a
lot of people are saying got bamboozled, she got taken
advantage of.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
She did, yeah, hit her husband's fingers went to the floor,
she scrambled and got it, and so both of them
have been on media here and there. But uh, yeah,
I've been talking with them all morning.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
We'd on the streets. Is Danny got him on the phone.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Danny asked Amber, Hey, could you tell us the story,
your story of what happened on the Covino and Rich show.
And she said, let me talk to my husband. And
I want to know why she didn't say that when
the Dodger's piece exactly into the back room, it said
canned over the ball, lady reeks of remorse, why didn't
she say that?
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Backtracking?
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Yeah, I think that. I mean they are lifelong Dodger fans.
I think they're just trying to be careful with how
they were.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
We understand, I'm on their team all the way. I
think that's a mess up story. If you know what
we're talking about. There was a bit of a shakedown.
The story is that the Dodgers strong armed this woman
into handing over show Hay's first Dodger home run. They
could have sold it for one hundred thousand dollars. Instead,
they got a foam finger and a high five, then
a Dodger Doug Yeah and dodgead No.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
They got like a couple signed hats like yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
So our topic is going to be, what would you
guys have held out for well, first of all, I.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Held meeting him. Hey can I meet the guy?
Speaker 5 (06:20):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
And then I handed to him personally because then they
lied about that.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yeah, and show, hey, who you know? Is started to
get the reputation of a pennoky.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
I gotta talk to him. He doesn't have an interpreter anymore.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Show Heo Toddi's nose keeps growing because first, you know,
the whole gambling thing that swept out under the rug.
They're investigating that still. Now he insinuated that he met
the woman, and they're like, no, we never met shoe
Heo Todi.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
In his defense, he meets lots of people, so maybe
he's like, oh, sorry, confused him someone else?
Speaker 3 (06:49):
I guess, so.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
All you Americans look alike.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Yeah, right, So Dodgers playing good, but there's some drama
around your Dodgers. It's amazing the difference between Anahei and
Los Angeles because the second show he gets here, there's
so much controversy surround this dude. So we're going to
try to get Amber on the show and see what
happened with his home run ball.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
They're going to try to make it work as a couple.
They both get out of work at four pm on
our show, and so at least her husband will be
available to tell his side.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
In their defense, Danny J I would be nervous to
be calling in on Fox Sports Radio. We're on why
we're on the radio every day, But calling in someone's
show is a nerve wracking experience. I think I don't
scare them away. There's one hundred thousand dollars on the line.
What's nerve wracking about it?
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Though? The Dodgers for radio shows, all right, you're on
the air, and but.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Look at this might help their cause because the Dodgers
said that they are still open for negotiation.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
They're trying to they're trying to get their payday. They'll
do anything you think they could call.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Deserve it. They deserve that. The Dodgers strong armed them.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
They seemed really honest when they were saying that they're
diehard Dodger fans and they loved the moment. They were
living in the moment. So she wasn't. She honestly wasn't
thinking about money as it happened.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
You know what they need to do. You got to
always think about mony the lineup.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
For me, they need to rally all very skeptical, as
you would say, cave the buftals are all stop.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Undoing the bookings.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Think of all, think of all the Latino Dodgers fans
that they could get rallying behind them, Like you're telling
me this organization who we put our blood, sweat and
tears in as fans, A team that's worth billions, that
just gave show Heyo TONI seven hundred million dollars. You're
one of the highest payrolls in all of sports. Are
(08:35):
you gonna do a fan dirty like that?
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Well, you could just say that there's two ways to
look at it. Were they done dirty? Or are the
Dodgers and their PR team and the people who confiscate
these balls for the players and everything? Are they just
grade a negotiators? Did they just do a great job.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
I feel like they get bonused based on the negotiating skill.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
That's like, you just did a great job, and now
it just appears that they were taking advantage.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
It's like giving props to the person that was trying
to get mister Hendrickson Hendrickson to give up his house
in the movie Up.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
I don't know about that. You know, their job is
to retrieve that ball.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
They did a hell of a job and they do smoking
mirror said, hey, thank you lady, here you go, here's
your prizes.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Have a great night.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
And she was happy about it until she realized she wasn't.
So there's two ways to look at it. Bamboozled. Yeah,
but hey, great job getting that ball back Dodgers team.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
There's a golden opportunity, golden in fact, not even golden
platinum opportunity for Sho Halo Tany and the Dodgers to
create a great pr move. Not.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
This sounds like the NYG. You ever put some stuff
on offer up and you realize like it sells right away,
and then you think to yourself, man, I should have
asked for more money.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
I did that with some rims just a couple of
months ago. The guy by he made the mistake of
telling me, man, I haven't been able to find these anywhere,
and when I have, they're double the price. And I
was like, dang it.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah, And you're like, damn, you know what, Maybe I
should have asked for more.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Someone hits you up later on, I'm like, dude, they're sold.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
I would have gave you a two thousand forum and
you're like, oh, hey, maybe I'll go back to the
Dodgers and get him back to get my you know
what I mean. That's what it sort of feels like
a little bit. So you can't really blame the Dodgers
that much. I want to blame show Hey for saying
he met them when he didn't. I do blame him
for not making this right because this is a great
opportunity for show Hey to get some good press after
(10:34):
all the betting debacle.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
So it's an opportunity. Yeah, it's an opportunity. We shall
see how it unfolds. But I want to hear the
words from her mouth because she's gonna be on the show,
hopefully next hour. And my whole point is that maybe
kind of you supposed to you have it, you have
the ability to really put a good look out there,
like cost benefit. You give this family one hundred thousand
(10:59):
dollars for the ball, or you say you guys got kids,
Shohatani and the Dodgers is gonna pay for your kids college?
Or we're gonna they if they do some grand gesture. Man,
it makes the Dodgers and show Hey look really good
in a time where they don't really look that great.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
What would have been different. I kind of want to
hear from the husband because what would have been different
if he had been there and they hadn't been separated.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Well, the story, the story goes is that she got
the ball because it rolled to her. They immediately pulled
her aside, separating her from her husband, which is weird
to begin with, because Comino and I was discussing earlier today,
like if you're if Dannyji, if you're at the game
with Brenda and she got the ball gets rolled to her,
would you ever let someone pull her away from you. No,
I'm her agent.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
But then if they did.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
And then said we won't authenticate the ball, which is
what she's saying, that seems like shady, strong arm behavior.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
A little bit of a shakedown, hand break down, Hand
it over. Now, this belongs to the Dodgers. We'll see
it belongs in the museum. They were fighting a battle,
and we'll try to get to the bottom up. Honestly,
you tell me, Cavino, I think they just did a
masterful job of negotiating.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
And she handed over and then realized I.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Agree with it. You know what this is like if
you ever go to a trendy club in Miami, or
Los Angeles and you're with a group of girls and
you're one of the only guys in the group. Don't
ever let them say, oh, we're going to take the
girls in first, We'll get you guys in later. You're
never getting in.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
No.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Outside, you got to remember you're right. These are all tactics.
And I think you can look at it from the
way Cavino said, which is, hey, Dodgers had a good
negotiator that took advantage. I just think it's like the
rich stealing from the poor a billion dollars.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
They're really the evil empire of the National League.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It's like Yankees, the West Coast National League equivalent the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
I saw it on two different LATV morning shows today.
So with the TV and radio pressure, I feel like
the Dodgers are gonna wind up doing the right thing.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah, but I think it's a great opportunity once again
for Showhy to get some really positive press out there,
and it's gonna cost him really nothing at the end
of the day. So especially when he's got what seven
hundred million dollars to mess.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
With, or it is WrestleMania weekend, right, what if he
goes the rock or Hollywood Hogan style and show hey
leans into just being the villain, like.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Oh, all of a sudden, money, All of a sudden,
he speaks English. He's like, the ball is mine? You
want to do?
Speaker 4 (13:38):
He just starts dropping one hundred dollars bills.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Every time he strikes someone out, he puts one hundred
dollars bill in their mouth, like the million dollar Man. Yeah,
every time he hits a home run, he just makes.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
It rain mama. He could be a villain.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Oh, that's the that's the coolest story though. When you
think about it, it's like that lot It's a lot
of a flying lottery ticket coming your way, and then
you gave it up for a balloon animal. You gave
it up for a free hot dog, and that's it. Actually,
she got two autographed hats, an autograph bat, and a baseball.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
You know what It's like.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
You're on the boardwalk playing games and you spend two
hundred bucks trying to you know, get the little ring
around the bottle or you know, the throw the dart
at the balloons, spend a couple hundred bucks with your
kids and like, yeah, here's a SpongeBob stuffy and you're like, oh,
that's it.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Come on, you can go your whole lifetime and never
catch a home run, let alone an important home run
like that, to be taken away like that, No way,
no way. I've never cut a foul ball, let alone
a home run. That must be the coolest feeling ever,
even if you get it on the roll like she did.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Just I listen, there's so many layers to this. Now
look at it this way. I don't know they're economic background,
but if I were them, know what I would do.
Anybody could use one hundred get know what I would
do if I were them when the news interviews me,
I'd be like, all right, what's the crappiest looking room
in our house? Let's look poor honestly, be like, yo,
what's the room with like the hole in the sheet
rock and like a crooked picture.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Let's have them get the Ford pinto over, invite your
whole family over, just everybody the front law with like
a broken down car in the driveway, and be like, yo.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
We really need the money, like you gotta you gotta
lean into this.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
They now have to go on a campaign to make
the Dodgers look like, look what you did to your
middle class Latino fan, the Southern California Dodger fan base.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Danny G.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
You've lived out of your whole life. How many Downtown La,
Southern California sad the cameras are on?
Speaker 3 (15:40):
How many? How big are the Dodgers in the Latino community.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
Huge, dude, Number one as far as sports go.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
So when you look at that community and it looks
like they're pulling a fast one on someone, the Dodgers
have every opportunity to correct this and make themselves look awesome,
like yo, well yo, miscommunication. In fact, we're gonna pay
for your kids college and hey, hey get over here
in the Dodgers benefit. To give them the benefit of
(16:07):
the doubt, I should say, why couldn't they think, Hey, maybe.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
This family's not in it for the payday. Family's not
in it for the money. They're fans trying to do.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
The right thing. Yeah, they could play dumb. Now, I said,
this is just seeing an opportunity for show.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
That's a good point.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Coch Nice.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
I've seen them on cameras say that. I read it
in a couple of news articles, even the New York
Times this morning, And if I'm Dodgers pr and I
read that, I tell everybody in the organization, Hey, we
got to do right by them because they're they're even
saying that they don't care about the money all that much.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
So that's the big story. It's an easy solution. And
we're going to hear from her later in the show,
and maybe.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Her husband confirmed and he says he's gonna get off
work prior to four and they're working on her schedule
right now. He says, there's a great chance we both
can do it. I'm for sure.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Okay, take thinking of your heart hitting questions. Now, what
do we not want to hear the story? I want
to know how to guide it and get it. I
would have been pushing everybody out.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Of the way. Dude, he's a big boy, right.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
I would have been like, get out of my face,
elbows bounced off his fingertips. Oh yeah, I want to
I want to hear like that must be a magical moment.
Not everybody's Zach Hampbell and you know, gets hundreds of
balls their.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Way every game.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
By the way, Zach Campbell's that dude that masters catching
a foul ball.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Have you ever seen that game?
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Insane?
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Now, one last thing, we'll get to this again later.
We'll get her on the show or her husband. We
forget sometimes percentages of money, right, And you might say,
one hundred thousand dollars, that's a lot of money.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
For a Dodgers organization, Isn't that?
Speaker 2 (17:42):
What?
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Minimum wages here in LA at fast food restaurant yea
one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand dollars a year. Ye
one hundred dollars. Yeah, they're making that at McDonald's nowadays.
So just kidding.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
One hundred thousand dollars for a family that's living week
to week or middle class, middle lowerl class, you don't
know what their situation is, but one hundred thousand dollars
could be a game changer for their mortgage, for catching
up on debt, for their kids in college. What is
one hundred thousand dollars to a sports team that's worth
billions or a player that just got paid seven hundred
(18:18):
million dollars? How long do you think it would take
shoe hail Tony to make one hundred thousand dollars if
he decided to do one appearance somewhere, one public appearance,
one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
This is nothing, damn.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
That's what I'm saying, so it's easily correctable. I'm not going,
hey bets that on weekend basketball.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
I knew that was tough.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
He bets that he's doing a parlay tonight with Iowa.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
The very first comment underneath this story one of the
news platforms that had this out this morning, The first
reader comment underneath said they should get three point five
million dollars for that ball?
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Aah three point five spot. You know what it's like?
You know we got ambling him out spot.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
You know, we go to Vegas and there's always that
one jerk at the craps table that's betting against everyone.
They're playing the no pass line. That's the person like
pulling for the Dodgers in this spot, like.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Yeah, they did the right thing.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
No, you're like, who roots for It's like rooting for
the billionaire to get another bonus and do a bunch
of layoffs. You know what make this family's dreams come true?
Call to day the Dodgers could look good. Why is
it not done yet?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Is my question?
Speaker 4 (19:27):
Your back's against the wall, Rich, then are you holding out?
Are you leaving the park with the balls.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Caught judges home run? Remember he held out? Ye? Remember
the guy who was in left field in Texas.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
I believe in and you would have just gave the
security guy your your info, your contact info, and I
would it first.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
I would have stood there and be like, get an
authenticator here. I would have made a I would have
made a fuss.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Yeah, And you know, it's probably much like the earthquakes
in New Jersey, the element of surprise, right, and then
everything happened so fast there shuffling you around and you're
just in such shock. And in the moment you could
see how you lost control of the situation, got these
fast talking business dudes negotiating. So I get how it happened,
(20:08):
but I can't wait to hear from their perspective.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
I heard in the team shop. I'm not even joking.
This was floating around social media. Otani's first like foul ball.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
They have a found ball. It was going for like
six to ten grand.
Speaker 4 (20:20):
You got to be kidding me.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
So Brian Fanley on the update, Brian, what do you
think of this? Would you have been the pushover that's like,
here's the ball, or would you have held your grounds?
Speaker 6 (20:30):
I think I would have held my ground, Although you
guys bring up a really good point in the moment.
You like to think that you'd know what to do.
But unless you think about this in advance, and you
should because you're sitting in the outfield and showy Otani.
So I would think mentally, you're perceiving that this could happen.
You've got to be able to put your foot down
(20:50):
on this and not be bully.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
You know what. It's like.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
It's like there was a dufus I'll call him the
biggest dufis I remember, but I forgot his name. Yankee Stadium,
Derek g hits his three thousandth hit. It was a
home run.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
I believe that heavy set kid right, and something caught
the home run. Some little chup stare caught the ball
and they're like.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Hey, you get to meet Derek Jeter and here's a
jersey and he's like, oh good, and he's like, I
got did the right thing.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
It's like, did the right thing?
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Turk.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Jeter's net worth is like half a billion dollars and
this kid was like a college kid.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Handidate over what he did. Dope, you got it. They're
an opportunity.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
It's like, like you said, it's right, flower, Like Cavino said,
this was a flying mega million's Powerball ticket, not the
grand prize, but imagine if like a lottery ticket was
just flying in the outfields, Like if you catch that,
h six figures and they're like.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
Little thanks dude.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Six figures is plenty for most people. Man, that's great.
So you want to cash in on that. I'm sure
they could use it. And you know what, this story
will have a happy ending. I predict that. I am
excited to see how it referrals, though, I really am
can't wait to see the update on this.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
Could you said the word onfurl then I had one
thing here. Yeah, let's say you caught the ball. You're
on video catching the ball, and they're like, we won't
authenticate it unless you hand it over. Then either the
ball exists in your possession or it doesn't exist at all.
What are you gonna say the actual ball is elsewhere
that someone else has it. I would have is the ball,
(22:16):
I was saying, you have video evidence, it is authenticated already.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
This is what I would have pulled. There's only one
person who has it.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
This is what I would have pulled, Like a completely
odd stance of I'm holding the ball, the camera crews
get the news here.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
I have the ball in my hand.
Speaker 7 (22:31):
Yeah, that is the ball. The ball is already authenticated.
It's like, okay, then if I'm not the possessor of
the ball, then who is? Then the ball just doesn't exist.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
I would have had a camera crew follow me from
the stadiuma get the news here or something. Anyway, I'm
adamant about this because I feel like the Dodgers have
the opportunity to do something nice and it would be
so cost minimal for them, but make such a difference
for a family in southern California.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
It's almost like, why would you not do it the
pr alone.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Imagine if o Tani comes out and he's like, misunderstanding, Yo,
I'm more than happy. In fact, here's money for the ball,
and uh, I want to welcome you. You could sit
in the dugout like there's something to be done.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
That would be so easy. That's it the end, and
we'll yet.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I get fired up about the story because I just, ah,
it's a good one, all right.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
CNR on FSR. Now, don't forget.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
Podcast flashing it back on a Friday? Is this Phil
Collins or Genesis? This is Phil? I believe Phil solo.
Isn't it crazy? We lived in a time back in
the eighties, Genesis, a fifty year old looking guy could
be a pop star. It's true, dude, a guy with
(25:14):
that face could be a heart throb making pop songs
in the eighties. That little hairline that would never fly today,
that little Doppelo sour cream as a hairline. Phil conson
like he was sixty five back then. I felt the
same way about Huey Lewis. Huey Lewis, he was seventy
making pop ular.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Well, Huey Lewis is a handsome man, he is, but
he was a handsome man, not a pop star. But
then again, you know, not everyone's super handsome and successful
right from time ed cheering, Submit it Special, one of
my favorites.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
People say I look like Charon Like I said, not
the most handsome. I'm kidding, Sam, Sam, you look like
a handsome ed cheering. Okay, that's Iowa Sam on the
ones and twos. You're dead cheering. We got Danny g
on the phones at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
He's always super producing.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Oh man, if you're listening to the podcast in the future,
Iowa Sam is playing the must be some misun to
stand in, I guess in reference to the Dodgers and
this home run ball, the show Hail home run Ball.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
There's an update on that.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Yeah, I'm gonna give you the update right now. We'll
get to Fendley's update also in a second. But I
also wanted to point out to you, as a Yankees
fan that you are wasted performance by Stroman today.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Twelve scoreless innings if you combine last outing in this
outing looking lights out Yankees can't score run at the
home opener, pathetic. I hate that, honestly, I hate that
we're actually in a Litle league game. Yeah, I hate
that they can't score run, not one run. But anyway,
he is early whatever. Yankees doing well. I can't complain,
(26:39):
but it's annoying when it's the home opener they can't
even score.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
The update for the Otani ball. You have to call
it something gate, right because like every sports every sports, uh, drava,
you throw a gate on the end to flate gate.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
This gate like there's always a gate. Think of that.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
While I tell you that Dodgers, they have reached out
with the weakest ass thing in the world. The Dodgers
invite them back. They're like, oh, we'll give you an
on field experience. Yes, it costed nothing.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
MONSI can do that. That's what she does.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
On the side, Monzi gives tours in the club house
and Dodgers stadium. Hey, get Monci on the case. That'll
make it up. Yeah, on field experience.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
I'm out.
Speaker 7 (27:27):
Instead of watergate, it's swatergate, like swatting the ball. What sorry,
chair sat swater gate?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Come on back to.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
Regular program.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
The Dodgers took heed for this and again Cavino after
denying her request to get it authenticated. Now they're saying
the Dodgers have invited them back for an experience.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
What does that mean? Does the experience, come with a
fat check. Doesn't sound like that's so, that's an nothing better.
I think they should have said.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Yeah, they should have said, and Otani will be waiting
for you with a special surprise in his wallet.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
And Monzi anything, and Manzi will let you take a
selfie in the dugout. They're offering him magic beans.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
It's like, I wouldn't care. I wouldn't care if not
to run the bases like charity kids. I wouldn't care
if it was Danny J on the field meeting me.
I like, as long as I'm getting my payday, that's
all I care about. Yeah, I don't want an experience.
I don't care who's there. Cut me a check, send
it in the mail. We'll see how it pans out. Yes,
(28:35):
bretton Flarida, how big of a fan you are?
Speaker 4 (28:37):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (28:37):
Brett? What's up? Guys? Love you? Thank you?
Speaker 9 (28:41):
Also love Sam, love Mons. He loves super producing Danny
che real quick.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
What about.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
This Guy's like?
Speaker 9 (28:51):
Oh I didn't even write it down. I had a
good pun anyway. So to get back to what we're
talking about, my two cents. I mean, honestly, guys, I
would not be turning in that ball because all of
this like extra coverage makes it so much more valuable
and so much more authentic capable, if that's the word.
If you're with me, so like I mean like you
(29:13):
would be known as like that person who didn't turn
the ball in even though they got.
Speaker 5 (29:17):
Like strong armed and hard pressed or whatever.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Yeah, you know what, thank you for the call, Brett.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
I do wonder, Cavino, what percentage of people This is
one of those non answerable questions, but what percentage of
people are capable of being strong armed? Strong armed in
that moment? Like you might say, it's you know, it's
a lot of people love to set point four percent.
A lot of people would love to say I want
to do that, just googled it, like Cavino.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
A great example would be I don't think I could
say that on Fox.
Speaker 7 (29:46):
Guys that think they can get into a fight and
they're gonna fight that boxer that's a great one, and
they end up just like ruffling around and wrestling with somebody.
I can go around with Mike Tyson like a street fight,
and then you end up playing Danny.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
No.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
It goes back to a family was referencing before you
have this idea that you'll do X, Y and Z
if the moment came to be. But you never really
know until you're put into that situation. And again it's
moving so fast, and then you're sitting there like, damn,
I should have did this, I should have did that,
but you didn't.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
It's like when Spotty was on Who Wants to be
a Millionaire?
Speaker 3 (30:18):
You just never know. You don't know how you're gonna
have Janny.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
That's because I had a dirty example of my mind.
That's way better spot was on Millionaire. Spot I'll give
you props because got a dirty mind lately. Even though
you never give me props, I'll give spot props. He's
one of our smarter friends. We didn't have to pass
a test to get on Spots a smart guy. I
didn't just walk in there.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
You watch Who Wants to Be a Millionaire back in
the day, and you'd be like, why is this idiot
using their lifeline on that question? I was that idiot.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
But you know what, when the lights are on you
and it's like for forty for fifty thousan dollars.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, you start to be like, you get one question
wrong and you're off the show. It's like Jeopardy, just
our silly radio game Last one Standing on Mondays.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
You guys freeze out.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Yes, I want to kick myself at the end of
the game every time, every week. So again, you think
you'll handle things one way, but it might be different
in the pressure situations.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Such a juicy, fun, ridiculous story show. Hey o Tani
the first home run ball. We'll keep you in the
loop because I thought about the.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
Crack off the bat too.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
That point clear too, like think of the hooplop for
just It's really just a random home run. It's not
his first home run ever, it's not his first home
run in the big week, first home run with the dodge, and.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
We're making this big Yeah, we're making this big of
a deal about it.
Speaker 1 (31:31):

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Oh you don't want that, give it to me. That's fine.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
One quick point.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Yeah, this is why I roll my eyes at blind
fandom like you can be a fan of a team,
you can be a fan of an athlete. But let
me tell you something, they're not a fan of you.
So giving it like just like letting go of all
common sense because you're, oh.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
You're such a Dodgers fan. Oh you're such an o'donni fan. Whatever.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
They don't give a crap about you. Like I said,
it goes back to that Jeter story of the kid
that was like, you don't care all your captain, All right,
let's go to Brian for an up date.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
What's up Brian family and guys speaking about that Homer
situation with the Dodgers that like, I'm trying to buy
a used car right now, and the Dodgers are acting
like a bunch of.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
Used Carl salespeople.
Speaker 6 (32:29):
Yeah, they're strong arming and slimy and trying to trick
you into something you think is right for you, for
it to be the worst thing for you.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
We want to pay. We have a classic story. First
of all, when it comes to the cars, I have
a tip. But yeah, Cavino, back in the day, they
didn't have the car and the color he wanted, and
this sleazy car go was like, my.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Friend, women love green cars. And he's like, I don't
want a green car. Ladies.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
Love it, ladies, but never to when they say what
do you want your monthly payment to be?
Speaker 3 (32:57):
Never tell them because then they'll just manipulate the number
zero for that to be payment.
Speaker 6 (33:02):
When I wanted a tour of the car, I didn't
need a selfie with the guy taking a video of
himself in the video of the car, which is what
I've been getting recently. My phone's been blowing up. I
should probably change my number. But by the price, man,
best price for you, best price, Yeah, exactly exactly. They're
really thinking about my best interest. Shoey Otani, Speaking of which,
he hit another home run today and I got a
(33:23):
feeling it's probably not gonna be worth as much as
the first one.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
Whatever career home run one seventy two was that, I
would have thought career won seventy one, causing all the controversy.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
That is the case.
Speaker 6 (33:34):
His second home run of the year, and it's a
Dodgers lost nine to seven against the Cubs, Tigers over
the Athletics five to four, Blue Jays stiff the Yankees
three and nothing. Ernie Clement crushed a solo home run
in that one games that are going on right now.
Padres are leading the Giants two to one in the
bottom of the fourth two one is our score favoring
the Orioles against the Pirates top of the six there
from Pittsburgh, and the Rays are up two to one
(33:57):
against the Rockies in the sixth as well, so at
two to one scores. As far as what else is
going on, Lebron James' son Brawny, fresh off of his
freshman year with USC, is going to enter the NBA Draft,
with a caveat being that he is leaving the door
open to returning to college, albeit with another team. That
he is submitting his name into the transfer portal would
(34:18):
be reason for that. MAVs Lukadancich is doubtful for tonight's
game with right knee soreness. Heats Tyler Hero will reportedly
be making his return from a foot injury this evening
versus the Rockets. Clipper say Kawhi Leonard is out tonight
with right knee inflammation. And lastly, guys, we've got the
women's Final four this evening. It starts at seven eastern
(34:38):
NC State taking on South Carolina, and at nine eastern
you've got Yukon and the fighting Caitlin Clarks of Iowa.
So we'll be having a lot of fun watching that.
With that, let's get it back to he coven No
and risk.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Lo Samantha al Right, well, hey, thank you Brian Fanley.

sneakers and make the winning play by heading to your
local tractor supply.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Store to day sneakers. Two quick thoughts and then we're
gonna get to Brownie James. Hopefully we hear from the
woman herself, the woman herself who caught the ball at
Dodgers Stadium.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
Show Hayes home run, and uh, we'll go catch it.
She sort of retrieved it if it was me. Honestly
in that moment, one hundred thousand dollars on the line,
I notice is a valuable ball. I would have jumped
in the air like you know how at a at
a hibachi night, the chef will throw the little shrimp
tail into your mouth.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
I would have caught out my teeth.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
Like the football fan who jumped for the extra points.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
That was Rich's dad, by the way, fact, Yes, I would.
I would have leaped for that man. I would.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
I would have leaped like Lanny caught that ball. She
retrieved it. Props to her, but now they're offering her
nothing for it.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
Oh, they get an on field experience Cavina onfield, which
I told you that you know who does on field
experiences offense. That's like a lot of times corporate events
will be like, hey, we're gonna have a brunch with
Dodger Stadium, and they give you a little tour Moncey
besides being the update girl, Mansei gives tours of Dodger
Stadium and works in there. You know, it's silly. This
(37:59):
is the Dodgers to make this right. So we'll figure
that out later. We're gonna talk some Sacramento as, we're
gonna talk Bronnie, We're gonna talk we cand hob nobbin.
But two quickies reminder, don't be the stubborn old guy.
And what I mean by that is my dufust Mets
fans friends are hitting me up, like.
Speaker 3 (38:19):
Can't get worse tonight's games on Apple TV. I don't like,
I can't get it. I get it here. You can't work.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
You're used to watching with your local broadcasters and provider.
If you don't adjust to Peacock having a football game,
Apple having some baseball games, it's the future.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
It is annoying, like you just want to watch the game.
You just get it.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
You want to watch the Mets on s m Y
or the other Red Sox on nessen to the Yankees
on Yes.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
So I'm not gonna pretend like I don't roll my
eyes like you. For f sake, No way, I get it.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
But Danny, when the when the Dodgers aren't local and
they're on like Apple or something, you deal with it.
Speaker 4 (39:03):
Right, you know, deal with it? Or I put on
a five seven LA sports yeah, role, yeah, put your
your radio affiliate on if it bothers you that much.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
So that's number one. Don't be the whining bach.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
It's like, well, my game's on, this game's on Peacock,
er Apple or t ont like it.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
Happens, like, that's why we're going. Can't you see?
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Even my parents are cheesing out on getting the app
right now, I'm like, get the app.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
You're missing all the games, Steve and I cut the cord.
Speaker 5 (39:31):
I don't know what to do.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Oh my can't stop being old. People figure it out.
MLB dot tv this is no commercial because I pay
for it, but I'm in La. I'm a Mets fan.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
It's simple smart TV every day, just click on and
it's linked through Amazon Prime, so I could just go
to my Amazon app and my Mets games are there.
It's not hard. Don't be the stubborn old guy. That's
tip number one. Number two. I had a dilemma yesterday,
and I'm curious how you guys would have handled this.
Oh boy, I'm coaching girls softball. As you know, I'm
manager of the year. People say, who's the best manager
in baseball? Not Aaron Bonkeavino. I know you might think
(40:05):
that it's me. It's not Dave Roberts. Sorry, sorry, Danny.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
I'm a big Ron Washington fan. You have his hairline.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
I get it rooting for him. I'm coaching girls softball
yesterday and in Los Angeles yesterday, if you remember Danny,
around five o'clock, which is game time, probably on your
ride home, it was overcast, a little drizzle, right like
that that in between where it's not raining but it's
not nice out.
Speaker 3 (40:31):
It's like, yeah, I had.
Speaker 4 (40:34):
God has been waiting for our weekend. Every weekend it
rains here in La.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
I had two different parents come up to me and say, hey, coach,
what do you think should we call this thing? And
I look around to the other fields and everyone's playing,
and I'm thinking when I was a kid playing Little League,
I was the kid it's like it could be a downpour,
and I'm like, we could play.
Speaker 3 (40:56):
I didn't know how to be like, hey, wimpy parent.
Speaker 2 (41:00):
Sit down. I didn't know how to appropriately say like, no,
we're gonna keep playing.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
Hey, why don't you mind your business? Lady? No, but
they were kind about it, But I didn't know how
to politely say.
Speaker 1 (41:09):
Well, as a manager, shouldn't you be prepared for this
sort of situation? When they're manager of the team, then
they can make the decisions. You're the manager. But it
is all I see.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
It is awkward when when a nice mom on the
team comes up team, she's like shouldn't we be calling this?
And I have to tell her you should sip aside
at me do my job. You act to like sort
of a whimp. No, we're not gonna call this. These
six year old girls can handle a little drizzle, a
little drizzled. I mean, when you played sports as a kid,
there was one.
Speaker 3 (41:39):
Of two kids.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
I wasn't playing sports that little organized, you know what
I mean. So I don't know that's That's the other thing.
My perspective is I didn't start playing little league until
eight nine years old. These kids are playing and they
still have accidents in their pants, so you know, maybe
it's uh, maybe there is something to be said about it.
Speaker 3 (41:58):
Yeah, I just like it to like, come on, there's
so little.
Speaker 2 (42:02):
They're all cold, and I mean I told the girls,
I'm like, this makes you tough, girls, This makes you tough.
Stop crying about being chili, makes you tough. You want
to be a tough girl. You want to be a
little whimp.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
And now they're all sick because I mean they all
have Manager Davis kept them out in the ring.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
The game center is can't Yeah, I was gonna say
they're all sick anyway, And there the game's canceled center
because they have bronchitis.
Speaker 3 (42:24):
But I told him, lesson.
Speaker 2 (42:25):

Speaker 1 (01:02):
I'll stick around for a weekend hob nobbin and let's
be rocking out. Look out for earthquakes East Coast. My
parents freaked out this morning.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
Back on the.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
East Coast, you play four point eight earthquake. No, I'm
not taking any chances.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Could you play ten seconds of you now? Won't do it?
I did say anything bad?
Speaker 1 (01:23):
No, not doing it. Uh there's too many Yeah, not
doing it. So my parents called me up freaking out
early this morning, like, oh my gosh, I'm so scared,
I'm gonna have a heart attack.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
And it was a four point eight. But it's not
even about that.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
There's a lot of pompous West Coast people who lived
through crazy earthquakes. I get it, but it's the element
of surprise. You're not expecting that. In New Jersey first time,
everybody thought it was their boiler exploding. People thought the
house was gonna fall down. People didn't know what it
was because again, you don't expect that four points a
shock factor. So anyway, guid your safe East Coast everybody else.
(02:04):
Hope you're enjoying your Friday. I'm glad my parents are okay.
They could have had a heart attack. My brother was
on the Bowl when it happened.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
What fault line was that I didn't even know.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
I don't know, no idea. It's your fault. Good line,
it's just your fault.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Fault.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
It's the part in Donald Trump's hair, my fault live anyway, Yeah,
they called me out this morning, and it's like, Yo,
that happens every few months out here in LA. But again,
weekend begins. Enjoy your college basketball, your show, Hey, drama,
The drama continues, Bronnie James in the News. We have
lots to get to. Plus, like I said, weekend hobnobbing.
(02:42):
What you need to watch this weekend aside from college basketball,
you have the same.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
Level of excitement to watch tonight. It's Kellen Clark versus
Yukon game.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Sure, I mean I'll sit there and check it out,
put it on, put my feet up, and enjoy. For
me personally, this is a weekend of recovery. I think
I've been running on fumes on empty. I've been running
on Vic's DayQuil all week. So this weekend, starting tonight,
watching his game is just all about laying there recovering.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
Don't bother me sort of weekend.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Oh, I'm very excited to just lay there and watch
some basketball.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
I'm not really invested in a prett day pretty pretty.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Meaning the outcome doesn't really affect me. I just want
to see a good game.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Ending to one of the grittish shows ever, Curby Your Enthusiasm,
the final ever.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Episode of Sunday Night. So that's something look forward to.
But you're not caught up.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
I'm not saying you're the only guy, but your only
guy that's talking to me about it. Is there a
big buzz on it this season? I like curbyr Enthusiasm,
I like Larry David. These are big buzz. Yeah, it's
the final season, the final episode. You're the only guy
I here talking about it. But I'm not saying you're
the only guy liking it. I'm just saying I haven't
heard it's been that great. It's been on since the
year two thousand.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
In, there hasn't it.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I'm talking about this season, twelve seasons, over twenty years.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I've watched a show. I'm just not raging about it
the way you are. I haven't heard a lot about it.
I also know it's WrestleMania weekend. A lot of people
dedicating their whole weekend to WrestleMania.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Enjoy that.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
I would say WrestleMania and Curb that's a couple things
to look forward to.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Hey, whatever floats your taco boat, whatever gets you excited,
enjoy it.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
It's gonna be tacobo. I'll be watching.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Baseball, little basketball, Like I said, recovering so I could
bring my best on Monday, because starting Monday, that Dan
Patrick hat trick begins. We're gonna be filling in for DP.
But right now, happy to be here hanging with you again.
I'm Steve Cavino. That is Rich Davis. Spot us here,
Danny G what's up?
Speaker 5 (04:44):
Yo?
Speaker 4 (04:46):
Well, what's up? Happy Friday?
Speaker 3 (04:47):
I'll tell you what's up.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
What's up with your Dodgers? That's what I want to know.
What's up with their week? Ass PR team and the show? Hey, story,
what is going? And you know we are going to
get to it.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
We're gonna dig in deeper because Danny spent the morning
and I think think later.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
In the show maybe Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
The woman, the woman that caught the ball that a
lot of people are saying got bamboozled, she got taken
advantage of.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
She did, yeah, hit her husband's fingers went to the floor,
she scrambled and got it, and so both of them
have been on media here and there. But uh, yeah,
I've been talking with them all morning.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
We'd on the streets. Is Danny got him on the phone.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Danny asked Amber, Hey, could you tell us the story,
your story of what happened on the Covino and Rich show.
And she said, let me talk to my husband. And
I want to know why she didn't say that when
the Dodger's piece exactly into the back room, it said
canned over the ball, lady reeks of remorse, why didn't
she say that?
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Backtracking?
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Yeah, I think that. I mean they are lifelong Dodger fans.
I think they're just trying to be careful with how
they were.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
We understand, I'm on their team all the way. I
think that's a mess up story. If you know what
we're talking about. There was a bit of a shakedown.
The story is that the Dodgers strong armed this woman
into handing over show Hay's first Dodger home run. They
could have sold it for one hundred thousand dollars. Instead,
they got a foam finger and a high five, then
a Dodger Doug Yeah and dodgead No.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
They got like a couple signed hats like yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
So our topic is going to be, what would you
guys have held out for well, first of all, I.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
Held meeting him. Hey can I meet the guy?
Speaker 5 (06:20):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
And then I handed to him personally because then they
lied about that.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yeah, and show, hey, who you know? Is started to
get the reputation of a pennoky.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
I gotta talk to him. He doesn't have an interpreter anymore.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Show Heo Toddi's nose keeps growing because first, you know,
the whole gambling thing that swept out under the rug.
They're investigating that still. Now he insinuated that he met
the woman, and they're like, no, we never met shoe
Heo Todi.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
In his defense, he meets lots of people, so maybe
he's like, oh, sorry, confused him someone else?
Speaker 3 (06:49):
I guess, so.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
All you Americans look alike.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Yeah, right, So Dodgers playing good, but there's some drama
around your Dodgers. It's amazing the difference between Anahei and
Los Angeles because the second show he gets here, there's
so much controversy surround this dude. So we're going to
try to get Amber on the show and see what
happened with his home run ball.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
They're going to try to make it work as a couple.
They both get out of work at four pm on
our show, and so at least her husband will be
available to tell his side.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
In their defense, Danny J I would be nervous to
be calling in on Fox Sports Radio. We're on why
we're on the radio every day, But calling in someone's
show is a nerve wracking experience. I think I don't
scare them away. There's one hundred thousand dollars on the line.
What's nerve wracking about it?
Speaker 3 (07:35):
Though? The Dodgers for radio shows, all right, you're on
the air, and but.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Look at this might help their cause because the Dodgers
said that they are still open for negotiation.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
They're trying to they're trying to get their payday. They'll
do anything you think they could call.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Deserve it. They deserve that. The Dodgers strong armed them.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
They seemed really honest when they were saying that they're
diehard Dodger fans and they loved the moment. They were
living in the moment. So she wasn't. She honestly wasn't
thinking about money as it happened.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
You know what they need to do. You got to
always think about mony the lineup.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
For me, they need to rally all very skeptical, as
you would say, cave the buftals are all stop.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
Undoing the bookings.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
Think of all, think of all the Latino Dodgers fans
that they could get rallying behind them, Like you're telling
me this organization who we put our blood, sweat and
tears in as fans, A team that's worth billions, that
just gave show Heyo TONI seven hundred million dollars. You're
one of the highest payrolls in all of sports. Are
(08:35):
you gonna do a fan dirty like that?
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Well, you could just say that there's two ways to
look at it. Were they done dirty? Or are the
Dodgers and their PR team and the people who confiscate
these balls for the players and everything? Are they just
grade a negotiators? Did they just do a great job.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
I feel like they get bonused based on the negotiating skill.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
That's like, you just did a great job, and now
it just appears that they were taking advantage.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
It's like giving props to the person that was trying
to get mister Hendrickson Hendrickson to give up his house
in the movie Up.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
I don't know about that. You know, their job is
to retrieve that ball.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
They did a hell of a job and they do smoking
mirror said, hey, thank you lady, here you go, here's
your prizes.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
Have a great night.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
And she was happy about it until she realized she wasn't.
So there's two ways to look at it. Bamboozled. Yeah,
but hey, great job getting that ball back Dodgers team.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
There's a golden opportunity, golden in fact, not even golden
platinum opportunity for Sho Halo Tany and the Dodgers to
create a great pr move. Not.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
This sounds like the NYG. You ever put some stuff
on offer up and you realize like it sells right away,
and then you think to yourself, man, I should have
asked for more money.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
I did that with some rims just a couple of
months ago. The guy by he made the mistake of
telling me, man, I haven't been able to find these anywhere,
and when I have, they're double the price. And I
was like, dang it.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Yeah, And you're like, damn, you know what, Maybe I
should have asked for more.
Speaker 3 (10:07):
Someone hits you up later on, I'm like, dude, they're sold.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
I would have gave you a two thousand forum and
you're like, oh, hey, maybe I'll go back to the
Dodgers and get him back to get my you know
what I mean. That's what it sort of feels like
a little bit. So you can't really blame the Dodgers
that much. I want to blame show Hey for saying
he met them when he didn't. I do blame him
for not making this right because this is a great
opportunity for show Hey to get some good press after
(10:34):
all the betting debacle.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
So it's an opportunity. Yeah, it's an opportunity. We shall
see how it unfolds. But I want to hear the
words from her mouth because she's gonna be on the show,
hopefully next hour. And my whole point is that maybe
kind of you supposed to you have it, you have
the ability to really put a good look out there,
like cost benefit. You give this family one hundred thousand
(10:59):
dollars for the ball, or you say you guys got kids,
Shohatani and the Dodgers is gonna pay for your kids college?
Or we're gonna they if they do some grand gesture. Man,
it makes the Dodgers and show Hey look really good
in a time where they don't really look that great.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
What would have been different. I kind of want to
hear from the husband because what would have been different
if he had been there and they hadn't been separated.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Well, the story, the story goes is that she got
the ball because it rolled to her. They immediately pulled
her aside, separating her from her husband, which is weird
to begin with, because Comino and I was discussing earlier today,
like if you're if Dannyji, if you're at the game
with Brenda and she got the ball gets rolled to her,
would you ever let someone pull her away from you. No,
I'm her agent.
Speaker 3 (11:45):
But then if they did.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
And then said we won't authenticate the ball, which is
what she's saying, that seems like shady, strong arm behavior.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
A little bit of a shakedown, hand break down, Hand
it over. Now, this belongs to the Dodgers. We'll see
it belongs in the museum. They were fighting a battle,
and we'll try to get to the bottom up. Honestly,
you tell me, Cavino, I think they just did a
masterful job of negotiating.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
And she handed over and then realized I.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Agree with it. You know what this is like if
you ever go to a trendy club in Miami, or
Los Angeles and you're with a group of girls and
you're one of the only guys in the group. Don't
ever let them say, oh, we're going to take the
girls in first, We'll get you guys in later. You're
never getting in.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
No.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Outside, you got to remember you're right. These are all tactics.
And I think you can look at it from the
way Cavino said, which is, hey, Dodgers had a good
negotiator that took advantage. I just think it's like the
rich stealing from the poor a billion dollars.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
They're really the evil empire of the National League.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
It's like Yankees, the West Coast National League equivalent the Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
I saw it on two different LATV morning shows today.
So with the TV and radio pressure, I feel like
the Dodgers are gonna wind up doing the right thing.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
Yeah, but I think it's a great opportunity once again
for Showhy to get some really positive press out there,
and it's gonna cost him really nothing at the end
of the day. So especially when he's got what seven
hundred million dollars to mess.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
With, or it is WrestleMania weekend, right, what if he
goes the rock or Hollywood Hogan style and show hey
leans into just being the villain, like.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
Oh, all of a sudden, money, All of a sudden,
he speaks English. He's like, the ball is mine? You
want to do?
Speaker 4 (13:38):
He just starts dropping one hundred dollars bills.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Every time he strikes someone out, he puts one hundred
dollars bill in their mouth, like the million dollar Man. Yeah,
every time he hits a home run, he just makes.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
It rain mama. He could be a villain.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Oh, that's the that's the coolest story though. When you
think about it, it's like that lot It's a lot
of a flying lottery ticket coming your way, and then
you gave it up for a balloon animal. You gave
it up for a free hot dog, and that's it. Actually,
she got two autographed hats, an autograph bat, and a baseball.
Speaker 3 (14:13):
You know what It's like.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
You're on the boardwalk playing games and you spend two
hundred bucks trying to you know, get the little ring
around the bottle or you know, the throw the dart
at the balloons, spend a couple hundred bucks with your
kids and like, yeah, here's a SpongeBob stuffy and you're like, oh,
that's it.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Come on, you can go your whole lifetime and never
catch a home run, let alone an important home run
like that, to be taken away like that, No way,
no way. I've never cut a foul ball, let alone
a home run. That must be the coolest feeling ever,
even if you get it on the roll like she did.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Just I listen, there's so many layers to this. Now
look at it this way. I don't know they're economic background,
but if I were them, know what I would do.
Anybody could use one hundred get know what I would
do if I were them when the news interviews me,
I'd be like, all right, what's the crappiest looking room
in our house? Let's look poor honestly, be like, yo,
what's the room with like the hole in the sheet
rock and like a crooked picture.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
Let's have them get the Ford pinto over, invite your
whole family over, just everybody the front law with like
a broken down car in the driveway, and be like, yo.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
We really need the money, like you gotta you gotta
lean into this.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
They now have to go on a campaign to make
the Dodgers look like, look what you did to your
middle class Latino fan, the Southern California Dodger fan base.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
Danny G.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
You've lived out of your whole life. How many Downtown La,
Southern California sad the cameras are on?
Speaker 3 (15:40):
How many? How big are the Dodgers in the Latino community.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
Huge, dude, Number one as far as sports go.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
So when you look at that community and it looks
like they're pulling a fast one on someone, the Dodgers
have every opportunity to correct this and make themselves look awesome,
like yo, well yo, miscommunication. In fact, we're gonna pay
for your kids college and hey, hey get over here
in the Dodgers benefit. To give them the benefit of
(16:07):
the doubt, I should say, why couldn't they think, Hey, maybe.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
This family's not in it for the payday. Family's not
in it for the money. They're fans trying to do.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
The right thing. Yeah, they could play dumb. Now, I said,
this is just seeing an opportunity for show.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
That's a good point.
Speaker 3 (16:21):
Coch Nice.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
I've seen them on cameras say that. I read it
in a couple of news articles, even the New York
Times this morning, And if I'm Dodgers pr and I
read that, I tell everybody in the organization, Hey, we
got to do right by them because they're they're even
saying that they don't care about the money all that much.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
So that's the big story. It's an easy solution. And
we're going to hear from her later in the show,
and maybe.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Her husband confirmed and he says he's gonna get off
work prior to four and they're working on her schedule
right now. He says, there's a great chance we both
can do it. I'm for sure.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Okay, take thinking of your heart hitting questions. Now, what
do we not want to hear the story? I want
to know how to guide it and get it. I
would have been pushing everybody out.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Of the way. Dude, he's a big boy, right.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
I would have been like, get out of my face,
elbows bounced off his fingertips. Oh yeah, I want to
I want to hear like that must be a magical moment.
Not everybody's Zach Hampbell and you know, gets hundreds of
balls their.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Way every game.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
By the way, Zach Campbell's that dude that masters catching
a foul ball.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Have you ever seen that game?
Speaker 4 (17:24):
Insane?
Speaker 2 (17:24):
Now, one last thing, we'll get to this again later.
We'll get her on the show or her husband. We
forget sometimes percentages of money, right, And you might say,
one hundred thousand dollars, that's a lot of money.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
For a Dodgers organization, Isn't that?
Speaker 2 (17:42):
What?
Speaker 4 (17:42):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (17:44):
Minimum wages here in LA at fast food restaurant yea
one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand dollars a year. Ye
one hundred dollars. Yeah, they're making that at McDonald's nowadays.
So just kidding.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
One hundred thousand dollars for a family that's living week
to week or middle class, middle lowerl class, you don't
know what their situation is, but one hundred thousand dollars
could be a game changer for their mortgage, for catching
up on debt, for their kids in college. What is
one hundred thousand dollars to a sports team that's worth
billions or a player that just got paid seven hundred
(18:18):
million dollars? How long do you think it would take
shoe hail Tony to make one hundred thousand dollars if
he decided to do one appearance somewhere, one public appearance,
one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
This is nothing, damn.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
That's what I'm saying, so it's easily correctable. I'm not going,
hey bets that on weekend basketball.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
I knew that was tough.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
He bets that he's doing a parlay tonight with Iowa.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
The very first comment underneath this story one of the
news platforms that had this out this morning, The first
reader comment underneath said they should get three point five
million dollars for that ball?
Speaker 3 (18:56):
Aah three point five spot. You know what it's like?
You know we got ambling him out spot.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
You know, we go to Vegas and there's always that
one jerk at the craps table that's betting against everyone.
They're playing the no pass line. That's the person like
pulling for the Dodgers in this spot, like.
Speaker 3 (19:12):
Yeah, they did the right thing.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
No, you're like, who roots for It's like rooting for
the billionaire to get another bonus and do a bunch
of layoffs. You know what make this family's dreams come true?
Call to day the Dodgers could look good. Why is
it not done yet?
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Is my question?
Speaker 4 (19:27):
Your back's against the wall, Rich, then are you holding out?
Are you leaving the park with the balls.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Caught judges home run? Remember he held out? Ye? Remember
the guy who was in left field in Texas.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
I believe in and you would have just gave the
security guy your your info, your contact info, and I
would it first.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
I would have stood there and be like, get an
authenticator here. I would have made a I would have
made a fuss.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Yeah, And you know, it's probably much like the earthquakes
in New Jersey, the element of surprise, right, and then
everything happened so fast there shuffling you around and you're
just in such shock. And in the moment you could
see how you lost control of the situation, got these
fast talking business dudes negotiating. So I get how it happened,
(20:08):
but I can't wait to hear from their perspective.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
I heard in the team shop. I'm not even joking.
This was floating around social media. Otani's first like foul ball.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
They have a found ball. It was going for like
six to ten grand.
Speaker 4 (20:20):
You got to be kidding me.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
So Brian Fanley on the update, Brian, what do you
think of this? Would you have been the pushover that's like,
here's the ball, or would you have held your grounds?
Speaker 6 (20:30):
I think I would have held my ground, Although you
guys bring up a really good point in the moment.
You like to think that you'd know what to do.
But unless you think about this in advance, and you
should because you're sitting in the outfield and showy Otani.
So I would think mentally, you're perceiving that this could happen.
You've got to be able to put your foot down
(20:50):
on this and not be bully.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
You know what. It's like.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
It's like there was a dufus I'll call him the
biggest dufis I remember, but I forgot his name. Yankee Stadium,
Derek g hits his three thousandth hit. It was a
home run.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
I believe that heavy set kid right, and something caught
the home run. Some little chup stare caught the ball
and they're like.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Hey, you get to meet Derek Jeter and here's a
jersey and he's like, oh good, and he's like, I
got did the right thing.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
It's like, did the right thing?
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Turk.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Jeter's net worth is like half a billion dollars and
this kid was like a college kid.
Speaker 3 (21:20):
Handidate over what he did. Dope, you got it. They're
an opportunity.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
It's like, like you said, it's right, flower, Like Cavino said,
this was a flying mega million's Powerball ticket, not the
grand prize, but imagine if like a lottery ticket was
just flying in the outfields, Like if you catch that,
h six figures and they're like.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
Little thanks dude.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Six figures is plenty for most people. Man, that's great.
So you want to cash in on that. I'm sure
they could use it. And you know what, this story
will have a happy ending. I predict that. I am
excited to see how it referrals, though, I really am
can't wait to see the update on this.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
Could you said the word onfurl then I had one
thing here. Yeah, let's say you caught the ball. You're
on video catching the ball, and they're like, we won't
authenticate it unless you hand it over. Then either the
ball exists in your possession or it doesn't exist at all.
What are you gonna say the actual ball is elsewhere
that someone else has it. I would have is the ball,
(22:16):
I was saying, you have video evidence, it is authenticated already.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
This is what I would have pulled. There's only one
person who has it.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
This is what I would have pulled, Like a completely
odd stance of I'm holding the ball, the camera crews
get the news here.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
I have the ball in my hand.
Speaker 7 (22:31):
Yeah, that is the ball. The ball is already authenticated.
It's like, okay, then if I'm not the possessor of
the ball, then who is? Then the ball just doesn't exist.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
I would have had a camera crew follow me from
the stadiuma get the news here or something. Anyway, I'm
adamant about this because I feel like the Dodgers have
the opportunity to do something nice and it would be
so cost minimal for them, but make such a difference
for a family in southern California.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
It's almost like, why would you not do it the
pr alone.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Imagine if o Tani comes out and he's like, misunderstanding, Yo,
I'm more than happy. In fact, here's money for the ball,
and uh, I want to welcome you. You could sit
in the dugout like there's something to be done.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
That would be so easy. That's it the end, and
we'll yet.
Speaker 2 (23:16):
I get fired up about the story because I just, ah,
it's a good one, all right.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
CNR on FSR. Now, don't forget.
Speaker 2 (23:21):

Speaker 1 (24:53):
Podcast flashing it back on a Friday? Is this Phil
Collins or Genesis? This is Phil? I believe Phil solo.
Isn't it crazy? We lived in a time back in
the eighties, Genesis, a fifty year old looking guy could
be a pop star. It's true, dude, a guy with
(25:14):
that face could be a heart throb making pop songs
in the eighties. That little hairline that would never fly today,
that little Doppelo sour cream as a hairline. Phil conson
like he was sixty five back then. I felt the
same way about Huey Lewis. Huey Lewis, he was seventy
making pop ular.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Well, Huey Lewis is a handsome man, he is, but
he was a handsome man, not a pop star. But
then again, you know, not everyone's super handsome and successful
right from time ed cheering, Submit it Special, one of
my favorites.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
People say I look like Charon Like I said, not
the most handsome. I'm kidding, Sam, Sam, you look like
a handsome ed cheering. Okay, that's Iowa Sam on the
ones and twos. You're dead cheering. We got Danny g
on the phones at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
He's always super producing.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Oh man, if you're listening to the podcast in the future,
Iowa Sam is playing the must be some misun to
stand in, I guess in reference to the Dodgers and
this home run ball, the show Hail home run Ball.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
There's an update on that.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Yeah, I'm gonna give you the update right now. We'll
get to Fendley's update also in a second. But I
also wanted to point out to you, as a Yankees
fan that you are wasted performance by Stroman today.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Twelve scoreless innings if you combine last outing in this
outing looking lights out Yankees can't score run at the
home opener, pathetic. I hate that, honestly, I hate that
we're actually in a Litle league game. Yeah, I hate
that they can't score run, not one run. But anyway,
he is early whatever. Yankees doing well. I can't complain,
(26:39):
but it's annoying when it's the home opener they can't
even score.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
The update for the Otani ball. You have to call
it something gate, right because like every sports every sports, uh, drava,
you throw a gate on the end to flate gate.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
This gate like there's always a gate. Think of that.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
While I tell you that Dodgers, they have reached out
with the weakest ass thing in the world. The Dodgers
invite them back. They're like, oh, we'll give you an
on field experience. Yes, it costed nothing.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
MONSI can do that. That's what she does.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
On the side, Monzi gives tours in the club house
and Dodgers stadium. Hey, get Monci on the case. That'll
make it up. Yeah, on field experience.
Speaker 4 (27:26):
I'm out.
Speaker 7 (27:27):
Instead of watergate, it's swatergate, like swatting the ball. What sorry,
chair sat swater gate?
Speaker 3 (27:38):
Come on back to.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
Regular program.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
The Dodgers took heed for this and again Cavino after
denying her request to get it authenticated. Now they're saying
the Dodgers have invited them back for an experience.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
What does that mean? Does the experience, come with a
fat check. Doesn't sound like that's so, that's an nothing better.
I think they should have said.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Yeah, they should have said, and Otani will be waiting
for you with a special surprise in his wallet.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
And Monzi anything, and Manzi will let you take a
selfie in the dugout. They're offering him magic beans.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
It's like, I wouldn't care. I wouldn't care if not
to run the bases like charity kids. I wouldn't care
if it was Danny J on the field meeting me.
I like, as long as I'm getting my payday, that's
all I care about. Yeah, I don't want an experience.
I don't care who's there. Cut me a check, send
it in the mail. We'll see how it pans out. Yes,
(28:35):
bretton Flarida, how big of a fan you are?
Speaker 4 (28:37):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (28:37):
Brett? What's up? Guys? Love you? Thank you?
Speaker 9 (28:41):
Also love Sam, love Mons. He loves super producing Danny
che real quick.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
What about.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
This Guy's like?
Speaker 9 (28:51):
Oh I didn't even write it down. I had a
good pun anyway. So to get back to what we're
talking about, my two cents. I mean, honestly, guys, I
would not be turning in that ball because all of
this like extra coverage makes it so much more valuable
and so much more authentic capable, if that's the word.
If you're with me, so like I mean like you
(29:13):
would be known as like that person who didn't turn
the ball in even though they got.
Speaker 5 (29:17):
Like strong armed and hard pressed or whatever.
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Yeah, you know what, thank you for the call, Brett.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
I do wonder, Cavino, what percentage of people This is
one of those non answerable questions, but what percentage of
people are capable of being strong armed? Strong armed in
that moment? Like you might say, it's you know, it's
a lot of people love to set point four percent.
A lot of people would love to say I want
to do that, just googled it, like Cavino.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
A great example would be I don't think I could
say that on Fox.
Speaker 7 (29:46):
Guys that think they can get into a fight and
they're gonna fight that boxer that's a great one, and
they end up just like ruffling around and wrestling with somebody.
I can go around with Mike Tyson like a street fight,
and then you end up playing Danny.
Speaker 3 (29:58):
No.
Speaker 1 (29:59):
It goes back to a family was referencing before you
have this idea that you'll do X, Y and Z
if the moment came to be. But you never really
know until you're put into that situation. And again it's
moving so fast, and then you're sitting there like, damn,
I should have did this, I should have did that,
but you didn't.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
It's like when Spotty was on Who Wants to be
a Millionaire?
Speaker 3 (30:18):
You just never know. You don't know how you're gonna
have Janny.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
That's because I had a dirty example of my mind.
That's way better spot was on Millionaire. Spot I'll give
you props because got a dirty mind lately. Even though
you never give me props, I'll give spot props. He's
one of our smarter friends. We didn't have to pass
a test to get on Spots a smart guy. I
didn't just walk in there.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
You watch Who Wants to Be a Millionaire back in
the day, and you'd be like, why is this idiot
using their lifeline on that question? I was that idiot.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
But you know what, when the lights are on you
and it's like for forty for fifty thousan dollars.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yeah, you start to be like, you get one question
wrong and you're off the show. It's like Jeopardy, just
our silly radio game Last one Standing on Mondays.
Speaker 4 (30:56):
You guys freeze out.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Yes, I want to kick myself at the end of
the game every time, every week. So again, you think
you'll handle things one way, but it might be different
in the pressure situations.
Speaker 2 (31:06):
Such a juicy, fun, ridiculous story show. Hey o Tani
the first home run ball. We'll keep you in the
loop because I thought about the.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
Crack off the bat too.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
That point clear too, like think of the hooplop for
just It's really just a random home run. It's not
his first home run ever, it's not his first home
run in the big week, first home run with the dodge, and.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
We're making this big Yeah, we're making this big of
a deal about it.
Speaker 1 (31:31):

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Oh you don't want that, give it to me. That's fine.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
One quick point.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Yeah, this is why I roll my eyes at blind
fandom like you can be a fan of a team,
you can be a fan of an athlete. But let
me tell you something, they're not a fan of you.
So giving it like just like letting go of all
common sense because you're, oh.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
You're such a Dodgers fan. Oh you're such an o'donni fan. Whatever.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
They don't give a crap about you. Like I said,
it goes back to that Jeter story of the kid
that was like, you don't care all your captain, All right,
let's go to Brian for an up date.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
What's up Brian family and guys speaking about that Homer
situation with the Dodgers that like, I'm trying to buy
a used car right now, and the Dodgers are acting
like a bunch of.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
Used Carl salespeople.
Speaker 6 (32:29):
Yeah, they're strong arming and slimy and trying to trick
you into something you think is right for you, for
it to be the worst thing for you.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
We want to pay. We have a classic story. First
of all, when it comes to the cars, I have
a tip. But yeah, Cavino, back in the day, they
didn't have the car and the color he wanted, and
this sleazy car go was like, my.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Friend, women love green cars. And he's like, I don't
want a green car. Ladies.
Speaker 2 (32:52):
Love it, ladies, but never to when they say what
do you want your monthly payment to be?
Speaker 3 (32:57):
Never tell them because then they'll just manipulate the number
zero for that to be payment.
Speaker 6 (33:02):
When I wanted a tour of the car, I didn't
need a selfie with the guy taking a video of
himself in the video of the car, which is what
I've been getting recently. My phone's been blowing up. I
should probably change my number. But by the price, man,
best price for you, best price, Yeah, exactly exactly. They're
really thinking about my best interest. Shoey Otani, Speaking of which,
he hit another home run today and I got a
(33:23):
feeling it's probably not gonna be worth as much as
the first one.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
Whatever career home run one seventy two was that, I
would have thought career won seventy one, causing all the controversy.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
That is the case.
Speaker 6 (33:34):
His second home run of the year, and it's a
Dodgers lost nine to seven against the Cubs, Tigers over
the Athletics five to four, Blue Jays stiff the Yankees
three and nothing. Ernie Clement crushed a solo home run
in that one games that are going on right now.
Padres are leading the Giants two to one in the
bottom of the fourth two one is our score favoring
the Orioles against the Pirates top of the six there
from Pittsburgh, and the Rays are up two to one
(33:57):
against the Rockies in the sixth as well, so at
two to one scores. As far as what else is
going on, Lebron James' son Brawny, fresh off of his
freshman year with USC, is going to enter the NBA Draft,
with a caveat being that he is leaving the door
open to returning to college, albeit with another team. That
he is submitting his name into the transfer portal would
(34:18):
be reason for that. MAVs Lukadancich is doubtful for tonight's
game with right knee soreness. Heats Tyler Hero will reportedly
be making his return from a foot injury this evening
versus the Rockets. Clipper say Kawhi Leonard is out tonight
with right knee inflammation. And lastly, guys, we've got the
women's Final four this evening. It starts at seven eastern
(34:38):
NC State taking on South Carolina, and at nine eastern
you've got Yukon and the fighting Caitlin Clarks of Iowa.
So we'll be having a lot of fun watching that.
With that, let's get it back to he coven No
and risk.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Lo Samantha al Right, well, hey, thank you Brian Fanley.

sneakers and make the winning play by heading to your
local tractor supply.
Speaker 2 (36:49):
Store to day sneakers. Two quick thoughts and then we're
gonna get to Brownie James. Hopefully we hear from the
woman herself, the woman herself who caught the ball at
Dodgers Stadium.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
Show Hayes home run, and uh, we'll go catch it.
She sort of retrieved it if it was me. Honestly
in that moment, one hundred thousand dollars on the line,
I notice is a valuable ball. I would have jumped
in the air like you know how at a at
a hibachi night, the chef will throw the little shrimp
tail into your mouth.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
I would have caught out my teeth.
Speaker 4 (37:19):
Like the football fan who jumped for the extra points.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
That was Rich's dad, by the way, fact, Yes, I would.
I would have leaped for that man. I would.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
I would have leaped like Lanny caught that ball. She
retrieved it. Props to her, but now they're offering her
nothing for it.
Speaker 2 (37:38):
Oh, they get an on field experience Cavina onfield, which
I told you that you know who does on field
experiences offense. That's like a lot of times corporate events
will be like, hey, we're gonna have a brunch with
Dodger Stadium, and they give you a little tour Moncey
besides being the update girl, Mansei gives tours of Dodger
Stadium and works in there. You know, it's silly. This
(37:59):
is the Dodgers to make this right. So we'll figure
that out later. We're gonna talk some Sacramento as, we're
gonna talk Bronnie, We're gonna talk we cand hob nobbin.
But two quickies reminder, don't be the stubborn old guy.
And what I mean by that is my dufust Mets
fans friends are hitting me up, like.
Speaker 3 (38:19):
Can't get worse tonight's games on Apple TV. I don't like,
I can't get it. I get it here. You can't work.
Speaker 2 (38:28):
You're used to watching with your local broadcasters and provider.
If you don't adjust to Peacock having a football game,
Apple having some baseball games, it's the future.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
It is annoying, like you just want to watch the game.
You just get it.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
You want to watch the Mets on s m Y
or the other Red Sox on nessen to the Yankees
on Yes.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
So I'm not gonna pretend like I don't roll my
eyes like you. For f sake, No way, I get it.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
But Danny, when the when the Dodgers aren't local and
they're on like Apple or something, you deal with it.
Speaker 4 (39:03):
Right, you know, deal with it? Or I put on
a five seven LA sports yeah, role, yeah, put your
your radio affiliate on if it bothers you that much.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
So that's number one. Don't be the whining bach.
Speaker 2 (39:15):
It's like, well, my game's on, this game's on Peacock,
er Apple or t ont like it.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
Happens, like, that's why we're going. Can't you see?
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Even my parents are cheesing out on getting the app
right now, I'm like, get the app.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
You're missing all the games, Steve and I cut the cord.
Speaker 5 (39:31):
I don't know what to do.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Oh my can't stop being old. People figure it out.
MLB dot tv this is no commercial because I pay
for it, but I'm in La. I'm a Mets fan.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
It's simple smart TV every day, just click on and
it's linked through Amazon Prime, so I could just go
to my Amazon app and my Mets games are there.
It's not hard. Don't be the stubborn old guy. That's
tip number one. Number two. I had a dilemma yesterday,
and I'm curious how you guys would have handled this.
Oh boy, I'm coaching girls softball. As you know, I'm
manager of the year. People say, who's the best manager
in baseball? Not Aaron Bonkeavino. I know you might think
(40:05):
that it's me. It's not Dave Roberts. Sorry, sorry, Danny.
Speaker 3 (40:10):
I'm a big Ron Washington fan. You have his hairline.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
I get it rooting for him. I'm coaching girls softball
yesterday and in Los Angeles yesterday, if you remember Danny,
around five o'clock, which is game time, probably on your
ride home, it was overcast, a little drizzle, right like
that that in between where it's not raining but it's
not nice out.
Speaker 3 (40:31):
It's like, yeah, I had.
Speaker 4 (40:34):
God has been waiting for our weekend. Every weekend it
rains here in La.
Speaker 2 (40:37):
I had two different parents come up to me and say, hey, coach,
what do you think should we call this thing? And
I look around to the other fields and everyone's playing,
and I'm thinking when I was a kid playing Little League,
I was the kid it's like it could be a downpour,
and I'm like, we could play.
Speaker 3 (40:56):
