Speaker 3 (01:19):
Would have work.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
And I don't appreciate you gravy training. David vassay, okay,
trying to panic quote, particularly and personally to Mookie Betts.
Dave is the one who can motivate MOOKI okay.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Okay, you know what.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Don't take his spotlight. That's not cool.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Alright, Why did the white hot spotlight for myself? Let
me uh, let's start the show again, and I'll do
a different quotes.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
I mean, dedicating a quote to Mookie after Dave worked
so hard and was rewarded yesterday.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
I'm gonna do it again. Okay, every different, We'll do
it differently. Here we go. Thank you, Ronnie. This goes
out to Mookie Bets. What oh god, I did it yet?
Hold on, son of a bitch. The emotions of man
are stirred more quickly than man's intelligence. I tried, man,
(02:14):
I clapped it loaded the house.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I was. I was invested for our David Besse to
be rewarded for his efforts for putting himself out there.
And it got stronger as the game went on, like
a good running back exactly. Congratulations to Dave as we
discussed yesterday, he took some serious incoming.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Yeah, people said he was gay at all. I mean
that's not cool.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
There's nothing said he was gay. And he didn't say
Dave was gay. He said this is gay. And when
you got a name like Trojan Chuck, that's probably going
to be your go to.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
You know.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
He did have support on Twitter. He had a lot
of derision.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Don't make me defend USC.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Oh, you, Trojan Chuck is indefensible. His name's Trojan Chuck,
for God's sakes.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
What he loves it. He loves the truth.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
That's your guy.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Either way. David Vassay with a big victory, We've got
Marango Casino Dodgers. Although the Dodgers lost and Mookie was
over for Yeah, that was a little BBS strike call.
That was a BS strike three, that was that was
a chicken ass strike. But Mookie's lack of reaction shows
that he might be really like really that was bad.
(03:32):
Like I want you to, you know, start yelling, you know,
start popping off, get those chains around your neck wiggling around.
But no, anyway, the big, the big moment tonight, uh
is gonna happen with a bunch of people with a
cross body bag between their t's because it's Hello Kitty crossbody.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Back give the way, one of the most popular nights
of the year when the Hello Kiddy merch of the
season is distributed.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Yes, and like a river flows between two mountains, the
crossbody bag strap sections off your boobs and makes it
for an interesting look from women and men. So make
sure you put that crossbody bag across your chest tonight,
and we want to see you. We want to see
(04:23):
you standing up and cheering even harder for Mookie and
going absolutely buck while because like Rogan and Rodney say,
if you don't cheer for Mookie Bets, then you're a
dirty dirty dog. They said that dirty dog, dirty dog,
dirt dart, dirt, dirty dog.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
So I'm looking at the Hello Kitty crossbody bag online
right now. eBay already has it up. Someone named not
Psycho but kind of Psycho with a k I guess
Psycho us Chuck Psycho B has it up with pre
sale Dodgers Hello Katy cross body bag giveaway. They want
(05:03):
one hundred and forty five bucks and says last one available.
Four have already been sold. Just to kind of put
in perspective, how popular a promotion.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
This is a big one. The Hello Kitty Cross to
Tomorrow Tomorrow is Otani Ring day too.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
That's gonna Are they gonna do fifty five thousand of
those to make sure nobody's got to get in line
too early? Are they? Old Boy Steer Chavez Ravine tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Oh, there's gonna be O Tani madness, Hello Kitty madness,
Japanese madness.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
I mean, people are probably flying in. They're probably booking
rooms all up and down the Greater Los Angeles area
to get the Hello Katy cross body tonight, the Otani
Ring tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Vagabond in on figureos full Matt, You're not wrong.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Our own Colin Yee has some friends from church coming
in from Japan, a group of kids that he's helping
take around this weekend to different spots in southern California.
They are going to the Dodger game tomorrow, they get
to see OKWI pitch and they get themselves some World
Series rings. How about that?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
But no crossbody, no cross body bag to put between
your teeth.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
No, Ronnie went to the game last night. He misses
out on Hello Kitty cross Body bag. We did would
assume no freebies last night.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
They're not gonna be Yeah, there was a Rokie Susaki
bibblehead night last night. Yeah, it was a stealing whe getaway.
Yeah it wasn't a forty It wasn't a forty thousand
first forty thousand people Giveawaysaki bobble under the ring.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Well, usually, you know, if there's a bobblehead night, Tim
Kates puts a little picture of a bobblehead, you know,
of the bobblehead on our T shirt.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Yeah, I forgot about it yesterday, guys, I was so
focused on Hello Kitty Cross, you.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Forget about Roki Sasaki. I mean, come on, it's a
beautiful looking bobblehead too.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I know two reasons. Number one, we were at the
Bolt concentrating on that, and number two, I think Kate's
was preoccupied by the Mookie Bets cheering.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Uh oh, the outcome of Dave's plea to have the
standing and cheering for a movie.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
At that point, it was just the plea. Like Tim,
you got to admit when I told you about the
David Vasse tweet about the Mookie Bets call for support,
that knocked you right off the rails.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
I couldn't believe Dave did it. I could not believe
they did it. And then all of a sudden, I look,
I'm like, my god, forty nine thousand views and engagements.
I looked at the comments. I'm like this, this is
going south quickly.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, it came. Well, look at what's happening. Well, did
you watch the game last night?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Was theres getting a standing ovation here by many of
the fans.
Speaker 6 (07:47):
Used to show their support. Oh, lookie, they know he's struggling.
He's old. For his last seventeen patting second in the
order again behind o'tana in the pitch from grave. I
was doing the outside corner. That's clapping myation.
Speaker 7 (08:04):
By the way, something cold for by our own David
vasse whoa yeah, Rick Monday.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
People listen to him. Oh you don't like that. Never itt,
you got to say something family member.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
One pitch and that's outside one ball at one strike.
Who's family?
Speaker 8 (08:23):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Never it. Geez with the snarkiness because you hate the
fact that David Vassa holds power in his finger, like
the top of the Sixtine chapel, touching man the Promethean
fire to move men to stand up and cheer. I
was clapping my feet and doing a headstand, as I said.
But Ronnie was actually there, Yes I was, Ronnie. Did
(08:45):
you stand and deliver like Edward James almost?
Speaker 5 (08:49):
You know what the truth be told. I stood and
I clapped for a few seconds. Then I sat right down,
and I observed everybody else standing and clapping for the
almost the entire bat. It wasn't a stadium wide ovation
as our good our good friend described on the on
the radio broadcast. But there were quite a few people
(09:11):
that did stand in cheer, Yes there were, and it
it happened. Uh every time he came up to bat.
I think it was more and more grew like the wave. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
a little bit, a little bit.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Let this be a reminder. Let this be a reminder,
Trojan Chuck with your stupid online commentary. It's not the
critic who counts. It's not the man who points out
how the strong man stumbles. It's the man in the arena.
And the man in the arena Dodger Stadium stood and
cheered and tried to urge Mookie Bets into a hit booky,
(09:46):
So your snarky Twitter comments fell flat. Wowcause the people
delivered on the David vase A plea. Unfortunately Mookie didn't.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Yeah, well that's the thing. If I'm Trojan Truck, that's
where I got.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
On social media, the last on social media. W your
thumbs living in your little Twitter world, Trojan shocks your
little make believe Trojan world Man superstar Mookie bets.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
There was even a little bit of an explanation from
the gentleman sitting right behind me. She was saying, why
is everybody standing up and cheering for Mookie? And then
he went on to explain that on Am five seventy
he heard.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
That David had called that.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
See that's eyes, that's eyes and ears.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Ears perked up.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
I wanted to turn around and buy that gentleman of beer,
but I did.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
You don't want to turn around and say I'm Ronnie Fossio.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
Come one, dude, I did not, but I had a
grin on my face from ear to ear.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
It was glorious.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
You didn't say close your eyes there. The song of the.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Day is right. I w news right there, man? Pretty sweet?
Uh Dave Bassay moving mountains in our city, yes.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
But Mookie was not moved. Tonight could be a whole
different story. As we know, every night is a new night.
At Dodger Stadium. However, Mookie Betts has has really been struggling.
I think he's old for twenty one.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
I believe after the zero for four last night, yees,
so he is as zero for his last twenty one.
It's quite quite the slow.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Oh look, here's a guy. Here's a guy. Scottie Cat
on Dave's original tweet that says, such a great group
of fans in these comments shameful.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
That's right. You tell him, Scotty Cat. You know you
don't want to be a fan, will be a fan
this reason for you?
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Did Rogan and Rodney have a similar message that you
better you better cheer or you don't get no beer? Ronnie?
Did they when you? You were the only one witness
to that too.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Well, yesterday, prior to to me going to the game,
Fred said, are you going to stand up and cheer
for me? He asked you, Yes, he did so, he
put you on the spot, you know, and I told him, Oh, Fred,
I'll stand up and cheer for MOOKI sure, because I
like Mookie Bets, right, I mean I would cheer for
him anyway.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
You don't have to tell me the stand up to
cheer for Mooky God delivered in the World Series last.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Indeed is you got two rings? You's got three rings?
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Exactly right up with that, and let that be the
take away. People, you don't want to stand up and cheer?
Don't you want to stand up and give a couple
hand slaps like Ronnie did and then sit down and observe. Fine,
you want to stand and let your voice be heard
and cheer and build like you said, pee like a
wave and before you know it, you're freaking out in
the ninth inning when he's up there before Nootbar robbed them. Great,
(12:33):
But to have some sort of negative commentary about those
that choose to behave in the manner they wish to
support Mooki Bets, Well, what a mind. You are the
smallest of people. Yeah, the smallest of all people, Trojan.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
You can say what you want to us, but I
will not sit here. Well, Mookie Bets and his three
hundred million dollars are defamed by Dodgs or fans. Now
what do you say, Matt if I may play Devil's
advocate here because of your very self righteous stance.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Well, it's Trojan Chuck that brought this upon himself. He's
Trojan Chuck.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Well, Matt, it's not let's be fair, it's not just
Trojan Chuck. Who who poo pooed this day?
Speaker 2 (13:11):
There are hundreds.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Yeah, so you seem you seem to be focusing.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
On you keep bringing up Trojan Chuck that I keep
referring to.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
I only brought it up once, and you you have
been clinging to it. However, what what do you say
to people in the comments that say maybe more practical
things like hey, how about we just move them back
to right field, or hey, how about just moving him
down to the lineup until he figures it out.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
I think that's fair. I think taking personal shots at Dave,
which is what you alluded to on multiple occasions, suggesting
that he's gay.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Here not here a gay tweet even, but you know
he Trojan just they want to say.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
That either, well see now here we go again? Who else?
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Well, I got a lot of text aso's like a
lot of gay memes.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
That's a private conversation, Leslie, We're doing a show. Come
back later. Third time she's looked in the window. Jesus,
I understand the show before us likes to break it
like nine or eleven. We tend to go a little longer.
(14:18):
I don't like the attacks on David vessp because he
put himself out there.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Well did you hear how snarky Tim Neverett was there, right,
I mean or oral and Nelly weren't like that.
Speaker 7 (14:29):
That's a standing ovation, by the way, something cold for
by our own David vassaying.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
It shows how many people listen to him.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I don't like that delivery.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
We thought it was only family members.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
Oh one pitch and that's outside, one ball at one strike.
Who's family? See that? That's not okay?
Speaker 3 (14:47):
And what about this Matt somebody just sent me a
Mookie meme and he's on a milk carton and it
says missing Marcus Limbett's.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Now that's one that Tim never can get behind, because
we know that if anybody likes the Marcus Lynn Betts,
it's our man, Tim Neverett. He's like, I like that one.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Look at this text. Dave is not gay. Even gays
have standards.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
You see, Dave doesn't deserve that he's embedded with the Dodgers.
He's got his finger on the pulse of the clubhouse.
And if he's tweeting out something along the line like
hey guys, why don't we do this? This might be
a gesture that is well received. I'd like to think
for all the Dodgers have done for our community, and
(15:34):
Mookie Bean as big a part of that, and the
two World Series championships, being arguably the best hitter in
each of them, maybe it's okay to just say, well,
not necessarily my cup of tea, but I'm not going
to deride Day for this one.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Dave lives for the derision. Knew what I was doing
when I sent it out. Mookie Betts did tell Dave
or the collected media in Tampa that it's all in
God's hands.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Now, that was a odd one.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
I got a text that says this, The Lord works
in mysterious ways. Who can understand him? I'll stand up
and cheer for God. This text says, what's happened to us?
We've gone soft? You know? And there is that? There
is that.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Go ahead, Tim, the lineup is out for Game two
of the series.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Lineup, Let's play the No, what's the lineup? Kate? Where
is he?
Speaker 4 (16:29):
Let's not show a Otani batting lead off tonight as
your designated hitter.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
Where is Mookie Betts batting. Has he been dropped down
in the lineup to six? Seven, I'm gonna say no chance. Eight,
say no chance. Mookie Betts playing shortstop, batting second, no
(16:59):
change in the lineup despite oh for his last twenty one.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Yeah, you're gonna hate this text.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Tonight's night, he shakes out of it.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
This says Dave is a human dildo. That's not okay
if he if he shakes out of it tonight the
night's the night and everybody's still doing the ovation. They
might have to I mean they might have to do
it David Vasse bobblehead. They might have to replace Joe
Davis Bobblehead Night with David Vasso like.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Tweeting, like holding his phone and tweeting.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Joe Davis Bobblehead Night. By the way, Friday, September nineteenth,
get your tickets now.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
They should do David Vasse broken arm bobble They really should. Yeah,
waving his one hand with the with the arm and the.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Sle deadfish handshake, right, dead fish handshake.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Oh, that's a good one where the hand doesn't move
that muthy.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
What what about what if instead of like a waggling
arm for the broken arm, remember when he hit how
he turned on his side and was rolling and writhing
in pain. What if it was like a bobble body.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
That'd be tough, man. I mean, you know, it's like,
what are we gonna do? I mean, we're gonna build
the whole slide. We only have so much plastic. Okay,
they're not gonna spend that much money. You always gotta
make it more complicated.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
You know, you got the James Harden Angel snowflake, bobble
arm or whatever the hell it was.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
The Well, look, the Dodgers are a tough, proud franchise,
and tonight we're gonna have a bunch of people with
man boobs and cross potty bags sectioning off their boobs,
standing up and clapping for Mookie Bets, who's in a
terrible slump.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Yes, tim uh, this is a side note, but I
don't know where this has come from. On Twitter, the
stuff that's trending usually pops up on the right hand.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Side, Yeah, under the tab trending.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Yeah, trash the cutchip on the left hand side.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Trending right now, big balls.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
And Matt Smith, what if I done well?
Speaker 3 (18:59):
I think it's your attackle Trojan Chuck.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Trojan Chuck is mobilized, the Trojan, the Trojan army, the
Trojan family is strong to get me.
Speaker 4 (19:07):
Matt Smith trending along with big Balls.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Yeah, I got big balls to take on Trojan Chuck.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
Matt Matt Smith, Doctor Who.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Probably, I would assume Doctor Who and the Dragon Show,
you know, he sure with his sister.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
I thought our show was really good yesterday, and I
could see why Matt Smith.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
A lot of times they do the uh you know, locally,
I saw why Matt Dragon guy.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Matt Smith. Yeah. The actor has been cast as the
villain in Star Wars Starfighter alongside Ryan Gosling and me
a Goth in theaters May twenty eighth seven.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Okay, well, that's also David Vasse relatable, right, because I
assume Abrams has something to do with that. Isn't he
in control of the Star Wars universit these days?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
I'm not sure if he is, or if it's the
guy that made Brick and the Knives out stuff right
a doing it now. I don't know, because I have
divorced myself from the Star Wars franchise many years ago
into it. Although I do like jar Jar Binks, Oh
he doesn't nobody. Nobody doesn't like Sarah Lee. All right,
(20:18):
we are gonna do the top story of the day
coming up next. We've established that Ronnie clapped for Muki
Vasse wields the power of the Ayatola Komeni.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
And I'm gonna put you on speakerphone during this commercial
break because Leslie has been popping her head in the
window for the last ten minutes. I have commercials to read,
too bad. Put him up, put a pin in them.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
What does she want?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I don't know, but she's still there.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Leslie works at sales, guys.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
She's the one that told Peter to eat the cookie,
something that's regularly referenced on this show.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
That nobody understands. But yes, that's Leslie. She's uh, she's
almost like she could be in that show The Office
and be the only one that's not acting and fit
in perfect characterization perfectly. Yes, Oh that's good, big balls,
Well done, Runny. We'll be right back with Big Sack
Matt Smith. He's treading right now. Twitter.

not h very good at knowing about the Rokie Sasaki
Bobble had yesterday, Kate.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Yes, by the way, those uh those Anima cards that
were giving away a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Oh yes, yes, Uh.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
I have a friend who has a family member who
sold one on eBay for like five hundred bucks.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Whoa man.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
I was told by somebody else who went to like
a card shop convention around here, not burbing sports cars,
but a different one in Patsanina. They said they were
people were selling them grated for one thousand dollars for.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
The ones that were given way at Dodger Stadium.

So we'll see it's time in the top story of
the day.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Well as we discussed in the last segment, and likely
will throughout the day and the show until six o'clock
because of David Vessey's pleased to try to find a solution.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
It's not always that the pre half and post guy.
You know, I know there's no halftime in baseball, but
it's not always that our reporter can move mountains like that.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
And he did, you know what I mean, he got
the standing ovation, he got the mookie chant. I saw
Dodger's Nation, that ig page that Dave loves, and they
never steal his material. Ever, they submitted that they think
the lineup change that they had was the solution to this. Hey,
(24:21):
this is the lineup that we would put out there,
and that's how we're going to solve the problem. However,
last night, this problem, they have a solution. The solution
is a lineup change. And they went through where Will
Smith would bat behind o'tani and they would move this
guy to there, and that dude to hear and let's
play this guy more and all that, which is fine whatever,
(24:43):
But last night the family wanted to we haven't We
hadn't been to yogurt Land in a while, and so
after the Dodger game, because they got to get over there.
The yogurt Land stays late, stays open late over there
on Rossmore, next to the in and out.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
Do they have the pumpkin pie flavor?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
They did have the pumpin Yes night, I had a
little pumpkin pie, a little bio it was good, and
I had a little smores is what I mixed together
in there. But as I was driving over there any tops,
I did put some blueberries and the caramel cups. I
put that on there. So yes, I acted like an
eight year old child. Came putting together my yogurt Land.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Too early for the pumpkin pie flavor. That was a
topic in our house. Too early to August.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Yeah, that's a fair point.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
People are going back point school earlier, even though we're
trying to stretch the summer tour. Yeah, like an Indian
summer into December.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
It's a fair point case.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
But I'm glad we went pe because on our way
back from yogurt Land, while I was enjoying my pistachio
s'mores pumpkin pie trio with caramel cups and blueberries, I
got to hear this caller share a solution for what
is a leen mookie and how it can be fixed.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
I was listening to the Dodger game and then listening
to Dodger Talk, and here's a solution that was shared.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Bob to Riverside Doug. You're on Dodgery talk. How you doing, Doug.
Speaker 8 (26:05):
It's a pleasure to talk to you again.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Indeed, hey, glad, we got it all worked out. What
do you have to say.
Speaker 8 (26:11):
Well, I don't know the regulations on the bats, but
I've done on the ones where Clint and Ilana and
Day and all these other guys on there. I keep
putting the same thing. I guess they're not getting the
message to Luky I go. All he has to do
is go to a lighter bat. He's worn out. He
can't square that ball up. So if he goes to
(26:32):
a lighter I know that for because I listen to
seven to ten because I'm a Wielaker fan too. But
John Ireland's give some research. He swings a thirty three
thirty three length, thirty one and a half ounce bat.
I don't know if they regulate that that that's what
the minimum is. But if he goes another ounce below that,
he'll be able to not only watch the ball go
(26:54):
on the zone, he'll be quicker through the zone.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
So this guy is on Ireland. Yeah. John Ireland apparently
said that he had a solution and he shared that
Mooki is swinging a thirty one and a half ounce
back and if he were to go an ounce lighter. Now,
there are many dumbash things that I have heard in
my life, and God knows I've said enough dumbash things,
(27:20):
but never ever have I heard something so completely stupid
that was set out loud that my ears picked up.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Maybe it's just so simple. It's that said. I said
that simple, man, It's that simple.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
One ounce a guy who's a former MVP who hit
two ninety in the postseason last year with four Doggers
and sixteen ribbies. That's one dollar more and six ribbies
more than o'tani had in the playoffs, whose thirty five
total bases were the most, who's nine to fifty one
(27:57):
ops was almost one hundred points higher than any other Dodger.
Let's open our minds, Matt, he needs a lighter bat.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Let's treat them like an eleven year old. Let's light
that that bat needs.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Do that, and maybe I missed this Ireland, you genius.
Do the Dodgers have a staffing problem? Do they not
have a hitting coach? And does that hitting coach not
have fifty assistant hitting coaches? Do they not have like
a freaking army of video guys breaking down every second
of every swing of every player that they need an
idiot radio host to solve the equation by saying, you know,
(28:31):
he swings a thirty one and a half ounce bat,
and in my opinion, what I would do is I
would take one ounce out of that bat, and I
believe that is the solution for a former MVP and
a three time World Series champion to get out of
this slump. That's that's what I would do, is lighten
(28:55):
the bat. Can you imagine suggesting something so completely asinine
and being so sincere about it that you research the
type of bat he swings to prove your point.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Well, it's possible that the Dodgers may have thought of,
you know, adjusting his bat in some way.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
I would like to believe if that that that has
been discussed MAT.
Speaker 8 (29:18):
Thirty three thirty three length thirty one and a half
ounce bat. I don't know if they regulate that.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
I believe he references the research back in the I
believe he references the research.
Speaker 8 (29:29):
He goes to a letter. I know that for because
I listened to seven ten because I'm a I'm a
Liker fan too. But John Ireland did some research and
did some research thirty three thirty three length.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Now, Matt as a guy that loves to do a
little digging, I do you gotta respect Ireland's research.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Yes, you know what, I think.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
I think.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
I think he's just got to swing a lighter bat.
I don't think anybody over there could have possibly thought
about that. But I did the research. I radio host
did the research, and maybe this is something that was
overlooked by the touchers. They did not know that he
swings a thirty three inch thirty one and a half
ounce bad. And if we can just dial that thing
down to thirty and a half ounces, I think, you know,
(30:14):
I think maybe this could solve the problem. Now, look,
you want to do the as you discussed earlier, p
the people that were pushing back on Dave and the cheering,
why not just stop giving him the Mookie treatment because
his name's Mookie Beats and shove him down the line
up a little bit and move will Smith up a
little bit. And that's fine. I got no problem with that.
(30:36):
Some of the pragmatists, Yes, you want to use your analytics,
you want to do the numbers game against lefties like
here we go. I did a little of this. See
if I can make it work. Hey, MOOKI today you're
going up against Miles Micholas or Mikolas. Last year, Mookie
hammered this freaking guy three of eight with four runs,
(30:57):
two homers, two ribis, which, by the way, he was
those are real numbers lifetime. He's four to ten in
twelve plate appearance, is hitting four hundred now, that's backed
by numbers. Last year Kate shared the lineup. He's hitting second.
He's hit this guy really well as recently as last year,
and in his career he's hit four hundred. There we
(31:19):
go zero for twenty one. Perhaps tonight is your night
as opposed to you know, I heard John Ireland do
their research and Mookie's swinging a thirty three inch thirty
one and a half once bat.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
I got a couple things here, Matt. Number one, you
have a friend who heard it from a friend. No,
you have a friend who owns a wood bat company.
I do you could one up Ireland and get it
produced and do your own digging though, and be like,
what do you think it is? You know, talk to
(31:54):
your friend about bat dimensions.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
At Glomar, Yeah, at Glomar, and.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
What they would do with a guy whose bat speed
is decreasing and who's in a bad slump. You know
you could talk to your friend.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Oh that's a great idea. I could come back. But
he needs an axe handle or he needs to move
the center.
Speaker 4 (32:11):
He swings an axe handle already, listen, look at that, Kate.
See we know our bat stuff here.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Right so, and then you could put it right back
on Ireland's forehead.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Now that's I'm gonna have to come up with a
lot more if I'm gonna put it on a seat.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Roldham a genius man. He got that big head. Now, uh,
I have gotten a flurry of text.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
That's good.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
That's say that Ireland on his platform, denied giving this
advice to bookie bats and says no one should listen
to him about hitting. But that's that would be calling
that old man.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
A liar, and I don't want to call that old I.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Don't think that old man is coming up. He said
that old man. I think Ireland bit off more than
he could chew.
Speaker 8 (32:55):
But John Ireland give some research and he swings a
thirty three thirty three length thirty one and a half
ounce back. I don't know if they regulate that that
that's with the minimum.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
I mean, you can hear it in that man's voice.
That's an honest man, that's a sincere man, and that's
a man who's gonna give credit where credit is due, Like, hey,
this isn't my idea, Okay, I'm repurposing it, and I
am willing to go on AM five to seventy Dodger
talk No. And by the way, Dave dismissed him with
great fury and anger, saying I believe he did. Yes,
I believe he took a shot. I don't know if
you can pull it, Kates, but I believe he said
(33:27):
something along the line, so, oh, great advice from a
guy who plays Sunday softball, something.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Along those Well, I think that's what happened. You know,
that guy went on in referenced.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Ireland, and then Ireland took all the Ireland rightfully, so right.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
And now Ireland is walking his back, paddling or saying
that he never said that.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
But that's an honest man. You heard what that guy said.
He said that he's been he's been pushing this idea
around to all the different outlets. I think he mentioned
Ilano over there on High heat. He mentioned somebody else
that he was talking to, and that Ireland, and now
he's coming to Dave Bassey and it's all because of
this Ireland feller who decided to share that he's swinging
(34:10):
a thirty three inch thirty one and a half ounce back.
And that's the solution to Mookie's problems. Day's solution was
the right solution. Support him mentally. People stand and cheer
for your Avengers. That's what you do. The bottom line
is there's nothing we can do. We had our man
(34:31):
Gomera on yesterday. They made the bed. They're sleeping in it.
And it's not your money, it's their money. If you
don't like the prices at the park, don't go. There's
tens of thousands of fans who are gonna be happy
to get their cross body booby bag tonight with the
Hello Kitty logo on it.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
Oh, I'm going to cross my boobs.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
And just because Mark Walter is scratching out a three
hundred and fifty million dollar check for this roster this
year and it's currently looking like the worst roster that
that much money can buy. It's not yours to return,
it's not yours to write a scathing review on Yelp
to air your grievance over your expensive purchase that did
you wrong? It is theirs, It is their dime. And
(35:10):
guess what, They're still going to pocket one hundred million
bucks in profit this year, so they're fine. They won
the World Series last year ten and a half months ago.
They are still the reigning World Series champions. And these
fans like our guy Bug on Dodger Talk repurposing an
asinine John Ireland idea to swing a lighter bat. Here's
(35:32):
Dave's dismissal level.
Speaker 9 (35:33):
All right, Well, I know John Ireland played Sunday softball
back in the day, but it's a little bit more
advanced these days. I'll just give you a quick summary
on it. The Dodgers have the technology to be able
to fit a player with the bat that is customized
to them and their swing at this point in time.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Interesting, Who would have ever guessed a franchise that spends
four hundred million bucks a year on players has the
technology based on your swing speed, launch angle, and hard
hit rate to give you the exact bat with the
exact light, in the exact length that you're supposed to swing.
Who could have seen that coming.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
I mean I I my first thought was, wow, you know,
Matt's with his girls eating sweets. He should be in
a better mood to get all mad listening to Dodger talk.
But then I remembered that, like every one of those
yogurt Land cups is like thirty dollars.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
It's thirty eight dollars. I'm not exacting. Hey, do you
want to cash in your rewards? And I was like, yeah,
we got rewards, all of it. And so they gave
us our five dollars and it was like thirty two
sixty eight. There were five of us. I was like, Jesus,
it's it's just yogurt with candy and a little bit
(36:49):
of produce.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
I mean, that's Ireland's worst nightmare. You know, he he
hears some old man dime him out right assay attacks
him for softball. You happen to be out Lit's bit
at the yogurt Land. Listening at the yogurt Land. It's
like when we catch Geeters saying something You're not safe, Gaeter.
The point being they just freaking won the world. They
(37:14):
humiliated the Padres with a bullpen game. When they were
up two to one, they swung their d so hard
against the Mets, winning every game like with ten or
twelve runs in the NLCS, and then the worst nightmare
of the Yankees five They won it in five, including
a hell of a rally started by an inexplicable air
(37:35):
and center field by Aaron Judge. Celebrate it. You should
get at least a season, at least one season before
people start taking all their potshots and screaming and yelling
and getting as angry as Dave as they have for him.
Just trying to do something nice for a guy on
the Dodgers and stop telling someone they got to swing
a lighter bat, because that's stupid. It's beyond stupid, it's asad.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
What about now we're talking, now, we're working through this.
Speaker 3 (38:04):
Call the glow. We should have the Glomar guy on me.
We should take something up this, you know, we could
bring that guy on and be like, what would you
do for this guy?
Speaker 2 (38:13):
What do you see?
Speaker 3 (38:13):
John? Yeah? And then we can shut and we can
send it, we clip it off and send it over
to Ireland. Like that. They said that guys like they
said that guy's puzzo in a box in game a throat.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Hey, we heard what you were talking about there Island,
you idiot.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Yeah, we can do research too. We know all about stuff.
Speaker 9 (38:36):
Here's a thirty John Ireland played Sunday softball back in
the day.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
But that's not fair to John. Yeah, yeah, DV, that
was a tremendous walk back.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Yes it was, well I just did. That's not what
I said. I would never suggest as much.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
I would never tell a professional hit or how to hit.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Sounds like you did. You're sharing what he's swinging and
whether and wondering whether or not he should be swinging that.
And Dave just clowned you by saying it's the Dodgers.
You don't think they have that technology. And they got
a freaking giant machine from Italy that spits out that
wood immediately. There it is.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
We'll be right back with more reaction to this very
hot story. Stand and deliver for Moki? How do we
solve Muki's problems? Guy makes three hundred million dollars and
we're worried about him. We got help out, man, he's
gonna worry about me. Stand for MOOKI stand with the Avengers.
(39:42):
Sam Lagana in.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
The house, Oh, who's house?
Speaker 3 (39:46):
Rams House? Thanks for listening. We'll be right back with
more great sports. Stop.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
Hello, PMS listener. Did you know AM five sevent sports
has a wide range of LA sports podcasts. There's Rogan
and Rodney.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
That one is my favorite, Dodger Talk with.
Speaker 3 (40:07):
David Vasse, the Dodger Podcast of record.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Clipper Talk Without a Musk, follow us all and many more.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Just go to AM five to seventy LA Sports on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
Well, somebody told me during the break they're like John
was listening, and I was like, John Ireland's coming on,
but joining us right now to solve Mookie's bats problem
and to prove our supremacy as a technical baseball hitting
show of record. Matt we have the owner operator of
(40:41):
Glomar Wood Bats, which is I mean, that's not scrambled eggs.
Speaker 2 (40:45):
No, made right here in Seal Beach, California. Former quarterback
at the University of Washington, pitcher at San Diego State
built and produced airplane parts and airplane part manufacturer. Moved
on from that business to reopen Glomar Bats. The bat
of Chipper Jones, the bat of many of Vlad Guerrero
(41:09):
was a Glomar bat guy and it is now back
and better than ever. And he is here to help
us solve this issue that an idiot AM radio host
couldn't solve. Up the dial a little bit.
Speaker 3 (41:20):
Well, no one solved it, you know. I mean, we're
in the midst We're in the throes of confusion. It's
John Mintor of Glomar Bats on the Petros and Man Show,
Southern California, Toyota Dealers Celebrity Hotline. What's Crag and John?
Welcome to the show. Thank you for listening and calling in.
Speaker 10 (41:37):
Yeah, what's up guys, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 3 (41:39):
We're thrilled that you would join us. When you heard
us talking about it. What was going through your mind?
And what do you think is going to happen in
this situation?
Speaker 10 (41:49):
I don't know, man, I mean I was laughing because
so much goes into these guys and the bats, I mean,
all of their equipment, but the bats they use especially,
so it's really impossible to say, oh, he should be
using a lighter bat or a heavier bat.
Speaker 3 (42:05):
I mean, that's that's dismissive, just to say, hey, let's
light up the bat a little bit off there, just
a little bit.
Speaker 10 (42:11):
He might be glazing over just a few a few
pH TODs looking into the in his best interest.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
So when someone says I've got the solution, he swings
a thirty three inch, thirty one and a half ounce bat.
Let's just take an ounce off to thirty and a
half ounces. What would that as someone who makes these
bats for professional hitters, John, what would that do? What
would that solve for Mookie Bets giving him thirty and
a half ounces on thirty three inches instead of thirty
one and a half ounces.
Speaker 10 (42:41):
I mean it's just that so it just very is
very dependent on the player. I mean, it could completely
ruin his swing, or maybe maybe it might help a
little bit. But you know, these guys work all off
season like dialing in and honeying in exactly what they're
going to use, like what and what handle, what model,
(43:02):
the distribution of weight m o I like, moment of inertia,
balance point, all that stuff. So it's definitely not like
just as easy as hey, just make the bat lighter
and that's going to solve his problem.
Speaker 2 (43:13):
I believe I heard an MOI and then explain to
us at this moment, again, this is a man who
was building airplane parts before he got into the bat
making business. To put into a context, how complicated. These
things are what's the biggest change, Like how big would
one ounce? How big of a change would one ounce
be compared to like the biggest change that one of
(43:33):
your professional hitters has asked you to make to a bat.
Speaker 10 (43:37):
I mean one ounce change is a massive change, like
for you know, for someone like that, I mean, that's
that's that's a really really big change, especially for an
established guy at that point in his career. He's been
using probably the same bat for you know, at least
four or five years. My guess is my guess, you know,
and I think he'd he'd have he'd had some other
problems with his hammet bone, so you switched to it
(43:59):
on axe handle, I believe. So, I mean, this is
the guy who's put a ton of work into selecting
his bat. So I mean, probably the most I've ever adjusted,
like for a player within his season is like a
half an ounce, Like at most, that's the most I've
ever done.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
Well, he swings a rival bat, and maybe it's time
for him to walk on the sunny side of the street.
You know, he's out there with that company in Pennsylvania.
So you can't just send him a torpedo bat and
call it a day here.
Speaker 10 (44:29):
Yeah, we could if he wants you man, I mean,
you know, like like you said it though, I mean,
there's so much to go into his baths, even the
torpedo bats. I mean, you know, we got some stuff
from a team for a minor league player and they
want a very specific movement of the sweet spot and
that's really the way you do a torpedo. But but
we'd love to make any bassomok if he wants to.
(44:50):
But I'm pretty sure he's good, So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (44:54):
He's over for twenty one, so what would you well,
you know how much of that's on the bat? Though?
Is he using the bat? John? Is the axe handle?
What's screwing him that he should? He not have used that?
By the way, what is an axe handle? What does
that mean?
Speaker 10 (45:06):
So an ax handle takes like a regular baseball bat
and then replaces that completely symmetrical round knob with what
you would typically see on the X on the end
of an actual axe. So it takes all the pressure
off your hamletbone, you know, if there is any depending
on what handle you've selected.
Speaker 3 (45:24):
Thank God for Matt Smith for socializing. John Mintor from
Glomar Bats is is our guest, and it's actually really enlightening, uh,
just talking about the mooki bet situation and how specific
and how complex these measurements actually really are. Yeah, is
(45:45):
it hard? Maybe I'm just stupid, but is it hard
to find wood that was struck by lightning? Is that
the only kind of wood that you guys use? But seriously,
where where do you are you guys? Like in the sequoias,
like at night trying to cut down a big as tree, Like,
how does it work?
Speaker 6 (46:01):
No?
Speaker 10 (46:01):
Now, most of the most of the maple comes from
the northeast of the United States, a little bit in
like kind of the southern Canada on the eastern side
of the country. But that that is where the weather
is like the best, and you get kind of the
best maple. Typically all comes from that kind of that band.
Speaker 2 (46:21):
And then was I correct? And as we finish it
up here, John John Minter from Glomar Bats, have him
make your child or your minor league or your professional
athlete a bat the best bats in the world. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (46:35):
When my kid enters the wood bat league, you know,
the first guy I'm gonna call, It's not gonna be
that dork in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (46:42):
Get access the the was I correct in my Is
it the Italians that make the bat making machines? Is
that right that they spit these things out? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (46:53):
Yeah they do.
Speaker 10 (46:54):
Yeah, that's an Italian company that makes a really good
wood lathe that all kinds of stuff, does axe handles,
it does barrel hardening. I mean it's it's a really
cool machine.
Speaker 2 (47:07):
And I believe Blomar is now also making the whatever
those things are called now, the BB cores or that
sort of stuff.
Speaker 7 (47:14):
Yep, yeah we are.
Speaker 10 (47:15):
We just released our first BB Corps for high school
and college age kids, and we got another model coming
out at the end of the year. Probably gonna start
a USA line for youth bass as well later this year.
Speaker 3 (47:26):
There we go, beautiful Stupcher's in John Mintor, thank you
guys of Glomar. We appreciate you, John, thank you for listening,
thank you for being a friend, and thank you for
making us so much cooler than any other local radio
show in town. Elementary Idiots shave Off announced you stupid.
Speaker 2 (47:47):
I think that that would probably ruin his swing.
Speaker 3 (47:52):
Daniel Jeremiah tried to make a late song request, but
he's out and we're in with the in crowd. He
wanted more bounce to the ounce. Oh good one, yeah,
pretty good for the bad good one. But we are
with the I mean we know the glomar back guy.
We are in with the ink crop. How about that man,
(48:12):
that's a real that's a real conversation about slup slop batting.
Speaker 2 (48:16):
That's an engineer there, you're an engineer.
Speaker 4 (48:18):
Now, are you get that? Calling a Dodger talks just
like sitting in the corner of his house somewhere.
Speaker 3 (48:22):
Just like what in the in the fetal position right,
and Ireland's calling up, like, how could you do that?
You've humiliated me, Doug.
Speaker 2 (48:29):
I thought it was going to be a funny. You
were going to drop my name on Dodger Talk from
a rival station. We were gonna have a lap.

No, it's not.

neotbar robbed, mookiear rob. Otherwise all that clapping.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Would have work.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
And I don't appreciate you gravy training. David vassay, okay,
trying to panic quote, particularly and personally to Mookie Betts.
Dave is the one who can motivate MOOKI okay.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Okay, you know what.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Don't take his spotlight. That's not cool.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Alright, Why did the white hot spotlight for myself? Let
me uh, let's start the show again, and I'll do
a different quotes.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
I mean, dedicating a quote to Mookie after Dave worked
so hard and was rewarded yesterday.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
I'm gonna do it again. Okay, every different, We'll do
it differently. Here we go. Thank you, Ronnie. This goes
out to Mookie Bets. What oh god, I did it yet?
Hold on, son of a bitch. The emotions of man
are stirred more quickly than man's intelligence. I tried, man,
(02:14):
I clapped it loaded the house.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I was. I was invested for our David Besse to
be rewarded for his efforts for putting himself out there.
And it got stronger as the game went on, like
a good running back exactly. Congratulations to Dave as we
discussed yesterday, he took some serious incoming.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
Yeah, people said he was gay at all. I mean
that's not cool.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
There's nothing said he was gay. And he didn't say
Dave was gay. He said this is gay. And when
you got a name like Trojan Chuck, that's probably going
to be your go to.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
You know.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
He did have support on Twitter. He had a lot
of derision.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Don't make me defend USC.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Oh, you, Trojan Chuck is indefensible. His name's Trojan Chuck,
for God's sakes.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
What he loves it. He loves the truth.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
That's your guy.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Either way. David Vassay with a big victory, We've got
Marango Casino Dodgers. Although the Dodgers lost and Mookie was
over for Yeah, that was a little BBS strike call.
That was a BS strike three, that was that was
a chicken ass strike. But Mookie's lack of reaction shows
that he might be really like really that was bad.
(03:32):
Like I want you to, you know, start yelling, you know,
start popping off, get those chains around your neck wiggling around.
But no, anyway, the big, the big moment tonight, uh
is gonna happen with a bunch of people with a
cross body bag between their t's because it's Hello Kitty crossbody.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Back give the way, one of the most popular nights
of the year when the Hello Kiddy merch of the
season is distributed.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Yes, and like a river flows between two mountains, the
crossbody bag strap sections off your boobs and makes it
for an interesting look from women and men. So make
sure you put that crossbody bag across your chest tonight,
and we want to see you. We want to see
(04:23):
you standing up and cheering even harder for Mookie and
going absolutely buck while because like Rogan and Rodney say,
if you don't cheer for Mookie Bets, then you're a
dirty dirty dog. They said that dirty dog, dirty dog,
dirt dart, dirt, dirty dog.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
So I'm looking at the Hello Kitty crossbody bag online
right now. eBay already has it up. Someone named not
Psycho but kind of Psycho with a k I guess
Psycho us Chuck Psycho B has it up with pre
sale Dodgers Hello Katy cross body bag giveaway. They want
(05:03):
one hundred and forty five bucks and says last one available.
Four have already been sold. Just to kind of put
in perspective, how popular a promotion.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
This is a big one. The Hello Kitty Cross to
Tomorrow Tomorrow is Otani Ring day too.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
That's gonna Are they gonna do fifty five thousand of
those to make sure nobody's got to get in line
too early? Are they? Old Boy Steer Chavez Ravine tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Oh, there's gonna be O Tani madness, Hello Kitty madness,
Japanese madness.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
I mean, people are probably flying in. They're probably booking
rooms all up and down the Greater Los Angeles area
to get the Hello Katy cross body tonight, the Otani
Ring tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Vagabond in on figureos full Matt, You're not wrong.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
Our own Colin Yee has some friends from church coming
in from Japan, a group of kids that he's helping
take around this weekend to different spots in southern California.
They are going to the Dodger game tomorrow, they get
to see OKWI pitch and they get themselves some World
Series rings. How about that?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
But no crossbody, no cross body bag to put between
your teeth.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
No, Ronnie went to the game last night. He misses
out on Hello Kitty cross Body bag. We did would
assume no freebies last night.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
They're not gonna be Yeah, there was a Rokie Susaki
bibblehead night last night. Yeah, it was a stealing whe getaway.
Yeah it wasn't a forty It wasn't a forty thousand
first forty thousand people Giveawaysaki bobble under the ring.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Well, usually, you know, if there's a bobblehead night, Tim
Kates puts a little picture of a bobblehead, you know,
of the bobblehead on our T shirt.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
Yeah, I forgot about it yesterday, guys, I was so
focused on Hello Kitty Cross, you.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Forget about Roki Sasaki. I mean, come on, it's a
beautiful looking bobblehead too.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
I know two reasons. Number one, we were at the
Bolt concentrating on that, and number two, I think Kate's
was preoccupied by the Mookie Bets cheering.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Uh oh, the outcome of Dave's plea to have the
standing and cheering for a movie.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
At that point, it was just the plea. Like Tim,
you got to admit when I told you about the
David Vasse tweet about the Mookie Bets call for support,
that knocked you right off the rails.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
I couldn't believe Dave did it. I could not believe
they did it. And then all of a sudden, I look,
I'm like, my god, forty nine thousand views and engagements.
I looked at the comments. I'm like this, this is
going south quickly.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, it came. Well, look at what's happening. Well, did
you watch the game last night?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Was theres getting a standing ovation here by many of
the fans.
Speaker 6 (07:47):
Used to show their support. Oh, lookie, they know he's struggling.
He's old. For his last seventeen patting second in the
order again behind o'tana in the pitch from grave. I
was doing the outside corner. That's clapping myation.
Speaker 7 (08:04):
By the way, something cold for by our own David
vasse whoa yeah, Rick Monday.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
People listen to him. Oh you don't like that. Never itt,
you got to say something family member.
Speaker 6 (08:18):
One pitch and that's outside one ball at one strike.
Who's family?
Speaker 8 (08:23):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Never it. Geez with the snarkiness because you hate the
fact that David Vassa holds power in his finger, like
the top of the Sixtine chapel, touching man the Promethean
fire to move men to stand up and cheer. I
was clapping my feet and doing a headstand, as I said.
But Ronnie was actually there, Yes I was, Ronnie. Did
(08:45):
you stand and deliver like Edward James almost?
Speaker 5 (08:49):
You know what the truth be told. I stood and
I clapped for a few seconds. Then I sat right down,
and I observed everybody else standing and clapping for the
almost the entire bat. It wasn't a stadium wide ovation
as our good our good friend described on the on
the radio broadcast. But there were quite a few people
(09:11):
that did stand in cheer, Yes there were, and it
it happened. Uh every time he came up to bat.
I think it was more and more grew like the wave. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
a little bit, a little bit.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
Let this be a reminder. Let this be a reminder,
Trojan Chuck with your stupid online commentary. It's not the
critic who counts. It's not the man who points out
how the strong man stumbles. It's the man in the arena.
And the man in the arena Dodger Stadium stood and
cheered and tried to urge Mookie Bets into a hit booky,
(09:46):
So your snarky Twitter comments fell flat. Wowcause the people
delivered on the David vase A plea. Unfortunately Mookie didn't.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Yeah, well that's the thing. If I'm Trojan Truck, that's
where I got.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
On social media, the last on social media. W your
thumbs living in your little Twitter world, Trojan shocks your
little make believe Trojan world Man superstar Mookie bets.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
There was even a little bit of an explanation from
the gentleman sitting right behind me. She was saying, why
is everybody standing up and cheering for Mookie? And then
he went on to explain that on Am five seventy
he heard.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
That David had called that.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
See that's eyes, that's eyes and ears.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
Ears perked up.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
I wanted to turn around and buy that gentleman of beer,
but I did.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
You don't want to turn around and say I'm Ronnie Fossio.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
Come one, dude, I did not, but I had a
grin on my face from ear to ear.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
It was glorious.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
You didn't say close your eyes there. The song of the.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Day is right. I w news right there, man? Pretty sweet?
Uh Dave Bassay moving mountains in our city, yes.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
But Mookie was not moved. Tonight could be a whole
different story. As we know, every night is a new night.
At Dodger Stadium. However, Mookie Betts has has really been struggling.
I think he's old for twenty one.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
I believe after the zero for four last night, yees,
so he is as zero for his last twenty one.
It's quite quite the slow.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Oh look, here's a guy. Here's a guy. Scottie Cat
on Dave's original tweet that says, such a great group
of fans in these comments shameful.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
That's right. You tell him, Scotty Cat. You know you
don't want to be a fan, will be a fan
this reason for you?
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Did Rogan and Rodney have a similar message that you
better you better cheer or you don't get no beer? Ronnie?
Did they when you? You were the only one witness
to that too.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Well, yesterday, prior to to me going to the game,
Fred said, are you going to stand up and cheer
for me? He asked you, Yes, he did so, he
put you on the spot, you know, and I told him, Oh, Fred,
I'll stand up and cheer for MOOKI sure, because I
like Mookie Bets, right, I mean I would cheer for
him anyway.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
You don't have to tell me the stand up to
cheer for Mooky God delivered in the World Series last.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
Indeed is you got two rings? You's got three rings?
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Exactly right up with that, and let that be the
take away. People, you don't want to stand up and cheer?
Don't you want to stand up and give a couple
hand slaps like Ronnie did and then sit down and observe. Fine,
you want to stand and let your voice be heard
and cheer and build like you said, pee like a
wave and before you know it, you're freaking out in
the ninth inning when he's up there before Nootbar robbed them. Great,
(12:33):
But to have some sort of negative commentary about those
that choose to behave in the manner they wish to
support Mooki Bets, Well, what a mind. You are the
smallest of people. Yeah, the smallest of all people, Trojan.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
You can say what you want to us, but I
will not sit here. Well, Mookie Bets and his three
hundred million dollars are defamed by Dodgs or fans. Now
what do you say, Matt if I may play Devil's
advocate here because of your very self righteous stance.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Well, it's Trojan Chuck that brought this upon himself. He's
Trojan Chuck.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Well, Matt, it's not let's be fair, it's not just
Trojan Chuck. Who who poo pooed this day?
Speaker 2 (13:11):
There are hundreds.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Yeah, so you seem you seem to be focusing.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
On you keep bringing up Trojan Chuck that I keep
referring to.
Speaker 3 (13:18):
I only brought it up once, and you you have
been clinging to it. However, what what do you say
to people in the comments that say maybe more practical
things like hey, how about we just move them back
to right field, or hey, how about just moving him
down to the lineup until he figures it out.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
I think that's fair. I think taking personal shots at Dave,
which is what you alluded to on multiple occasions, suggesting
that he's gay.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Here not here a gay tweet even, but you know
he Trojan just they want to say.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
That either, well see now here we go again? Who else?
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Well, I got a lot of text aso's like a
lot of gay memes.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
That's a private conversation, Leslie, We're doing a show. Come
back later. Third time she's looked in the window. Jesus,
I understand the show before us likes to break it
like nine or eleven. We tend to go a little longer.
(14:18):
I don't like the attacks on David vessp because he
put himself out there.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
Well did you hear how snarky Tim Neverett was there, right,
I mean or oral and Nelly weren't like that.
Speaker 7 (14:29):
That's a standing ovation, by the way, something cold for
by our own David vassaying.
Speaker 6 (14:35):
It shows how many people listen to him.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I don't like that delivery.
Speaker 7 (14:38):
We thought it was only family members.
Speaker 6 (14:40):
Oh one pitch and that's outside, one ball at one strike.
Who's family? See that? That's not okay?
Speaker 3 (14:47):
And what about this Matt somebody just sent me a
Mookie meme and he's on a milk carton and it
says missing Marcus Limbett's.
Speaker 2 (14:59):
Now that's one that Tim never can get behind, because
we know that if anybody likes the Marcus Lynn Betts,
it's our man, Tim Neverett. He's like, I like that one.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Look at this text. Dave is not gay. Even gays
have standards.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
You see, Dave doesn't deserve that he's embedded with the Dodgers.
He's got his finger on the pulse of the clubhouse.
And if he's tweeting out something along the line like
hey guys, why don't we do this? This might be
a gesture that is well received. I'd like to think
for all the Dodgers have done for our community, and
(15:34):
Mookie Bean as big a part of that, and the
two World Series championships, being arguably the best hitter in
each of them, maybe it's okay to just say, well,
not necessarily my cup of tea, but I'm not going
to deride Day for this one.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
Dave lives for the derision. Knew what I was doing
when I sent it out. Mookie Betts did tell Dave
or the collected media in Tampa that it's all in
God's hands.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Now, that was a odd one.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
I got a text that says this, The Lord works
in mysterious ways. Who can understand him? I'll stand up
and cheer for God. This text says, what's happened to us?
We've gone soft? You know? And there is that? There
is that.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
Go ahead, Tim, the lineup is out for Game two
of the series.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Lineup, Let's play the No, what's the lineup? Kate? Where
is he?
Speaker 4 (16:29):
Let's not show a Otani batting lead off tonight as
your designated hitter.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
Where is Mookie Betts batting. Has he been dropped down
in the lineup to six? Seven, I'm gonna say no chance. Eight,
say no chance. Mookie Betts playing shortstop, batting second, no
(16:59):
change in the lineup despite oh for his last twenty one.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
Yeah, you're gonna hate this text.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Tonight's night, he shakes out of it.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
This says Dave is a human dildo. That's not okay
if he if he shakes out of it tonight the
night's the night and everybody's still doing the ovation. They
might have to I mean they might have to do
it David Vasse bobblehead. They might have to replace Joe
Davis Bobblehead Night with David Vasso like.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Tweeting, like holding his phone and tweeting.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Joe Davis Bobblehead Night. By the way, Friday, September nineteenth,
get your tickets now.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
They should do David Vasse broken arm bobble They really should. Yeah,
waving his one hand with the with the arm and the.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Sle deadfish handshake, right, dead fish handshake.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Oh, that's a good one where the hand doesn't move
that muthy.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
What what about what if instead of like a waggling
arm for the broken arm, remember when he hit how
he turned on his side and was rolling and writhing
in pain. What if it was like a bobble body.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
That'd be tough, man. I mean, you know, it's like,
what are we gonna do? I mean, we're gonna build
the whole slide. We only have so much plastic. Okay,
they're not gonna spend that much money. You always gotta
make it more complicated.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
You know, you got the James Harden Angel snowflake, bobble
arm or whatever the hell it was.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
The Well, look, the Dodgers are a tough, proud franchise,
and tonight we're gonna have a bunch of people with
man boobs and cross potty bags sectioning off their boobs,
standing up and clapping for Mookie Bets, who's in a
terrible slump.
Speaker 4 (18:36):
Yes, tim uh, this is a side note, but I
don't know where this has come from. On Twitter, the
stuff that's trending usually pops up on the right hand.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Side, Yeah, under the tab trending.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Yeah, trash the cutchip on the left hand side.
Speaker 4 (18:50):
Trending right now, big balls.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
And Matt Smith, what if I done well?
Speaker 3 (18:59):
I think it's your attackle Trojan Chuck.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Trojan Chuck is mobilized, the Trojan, the Trojan army, the
Trojan family is strong to get me.
Speaker 4 (19:07):
Matt Smith trending along with big Balls.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Yeah, I got big balls to take on Trojan Chuck.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
Matt Matt Smith, Doctor Who.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Probably, I would assume Doctor Who and the Dragon Show,
you know, he sure with his sister.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
I thought our show was really good yesterday, and I
could see why Matt Smith.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
A lot of times they do the uh you know, locally,
I saw why Matt Dragon guy.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Matt Smith. Yeah. The actor has been cast as the
villain in Star Wars Starfighter alongside Ryan Gosling and me
a Goth in theaters May twenty eighth seven.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Okay, well, that's also David Vasse relatable, right, because I
assume Abrams has something to do with that. Isn't he
in control of the Star Wars universit these days?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
I'm not sure if he is, or if it's the
guy that made Brick and the Knives out stuff right
a doing it now. I don't know, because I have
divorced myself from the Star Wars franchise many years ago
into it. Although I do like jar Jar Binks, Oh
he doesn't nobody. Nobody doesn't like Sarah Lee. All right,
(20:18):
we are gonna do the top story of the day
coming up next. We've established that Ronnie clapped for Muki
Vasse wields the power of the Ayatola Komeni.
Speaker 2 (20:29):
And I'm gonna put you on speakerphone during this commercial
break because Leslie has been popping her head in the
window for the last ten minutes. I have commercials to read,
too bad. Put him up, put a pin in them.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
What does she want?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I don't know, but she's still there.
Speaker 3 (20:44):
Leslie works at sales, guys.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
She's the one that told Peter to eat the cookie,
something that's regularly referenced on this show.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
That nobody understands. But yes, that's Leslie. She's uh, she's
almost like she could be in that show The Office
and be the only one that's not acting and fit
in perfect characterization perfectly. Yes, Oh that's good, big balls,
Well done, Runny. We'll be right back with Big Sack
Matt Smith. He's treading right now. Twitter.

Speaker 3 (22:21):
Yeah, and tomorrow is Otani Ring Night. But we were
not h very good at knowing about the Rokie Sasaki
Bobble had yesterday, Kate.
Speaker 4 (22:33):
Yes, by the way, those uh those Anima cards that
were giving away a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
Oh yes, yes, Uh.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
I have a friend who has a family member who
sold one on eBay for like five hundred bucks.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Whoa man.
Speaker 4 (22:48):
I was told by somebody else who went to like
a card shop convention around here, not burbing sports cars,
but a different one in Patsanina. They said they were
people were selling them grated for one thousand dollars for.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
The ones that were given way at Dodger Stadium.
Speaker 4 (23:01):
Yeah, those limited edition one piece cards that were given away.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
Yeah, the one pieces the cartoon show.
Speaker 4 (23:08):

Speaker 2 (23:10):
Great rated, how about it? So how many did they
give away? Do you remember?
Speaker 3 (23:14):
It was?
Speaker 4 (23:14):
It wasn't even forty thousand. It was like, I don't know.
They never said, but let's say what five thousand maybe less.
Speaker 3 (23:21):
Next thing, the next thing you're gonna tell me is
Ronnie's gonna sell his Zayre Hope and quit his job.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
He's got it up on eBay.
Speaker 4 (23:28):
He's not on the schedule for next week.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
I know then, but it does have a reserve of
forty thousand dollars.
Speaker 3 (23:33):
So we'll see it's time in the top story of
the day.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Well as we discussed in the last segment, and likely
will throughout the day and the show until six o'clock
because of David Vessey's pleased to try to find a solution.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
It's not always that the pre half and post guy.
You know, I know there's no halftime in baseball, but
it's not always that our reporter can move mountains like that.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
And he did, you know what I mean, he got
the standing ovation, he got the mookie chant. I saw
Dodger's Nation, that ig page that Dave loves, and they
never steal his material. Ever, they submitted that they think
the lineup change that they had was the solution to this. Hey,
(24:21):
this is the lineup that we would put out there,
and that's how we're going to solve the problem. However,
last night, this problem, they have a solution. The solution
is a lineup change. And they went through where Will
Smith would bat behind o'tani and they would move this
guy to there, and that dude to hear and let's
play this guy more and all that, which is fine whatever,
(24:43):
But last night the family wanted to we haven't We
hadn't been to yogurt Land in a while, and so
after the Dodger game, because they got to get over there.
The yogurt Land stays late, stays open late over there
on Rossmore, next to the in and out.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
Do they have the pumpkin pie flavor?
Speaker 2 (24:57):
They did have the pumpin Yes night, I had a
little pumpkin pie, a little bio it was good, and
I had a little smores is what I mixed together
in there. But as I was driving over there any tops,
I did put some blueberries and the caramel cups. I
put that on there. So yes, I acted like an
eight year old child. Came putting together my yogurt Land.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Too early for the pumpkin pie flavor. That was a
topic in our house. Too early to August.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
Yeah, that's a fair point.
Speaker 3 (25:25):
People are going back point school earlier, even though we're
trying to stretch the summer tour. Yeah, like an Indian
summer into December.
Speaker 4 (25:31):
It's a fair point case.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
But I'm glad we went pe because on our way
back from yogurt Land, while I was enjoying my pistachio
s'mores pumpkin pie trio with caramel cups and blueberries, I
got to hear this caller share a solution for what
is a leen mookie and how it can be fixed.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
I was listening to the Dodger game and then listening
to Dodger Talk, and here's a solution that was shared.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Bob to Riverside Doug. You're on Dodgery talk. How you doing, Doug.
Speaker 8 (26:05):
It's a pleasure to talk to you again.
Speaker 3 (26:07):
Indeed, hey, glad, we got it all worked out. What
do you have to say.
Speaker 8 (26:11):
Well, I don't know the regulations on the bats, but
I've done on the ones where Clint and Ilana and
Day and all these other guys on there. I keep
putting the same thing. I guess they're not getting the
message to Luky I go. All he has to do
is go to a lighter bat. He's worn out. He
can't square that ball up. So if he goes to
(26:32):
a lighter I know that for because I listen to
seven to ten because I'm a Wielaker fan too. But
John Ireland's give some research. He swings a thirty three
thirty three length, thirty one and a half ounce bat.
I don't know if they regulate that that that's what
the minimum is. But if he goes another ounce below that,
he'll be able to not only watch the ball go
(26:54):
on the zone, he'll be quicker through the zone.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
So this guy is on Ireland. Yeah. John Ireland apparently
said that he had a solution and he shared that
Mooki is swinging a thirty one and a half ounce
back and if he were to go an ounce lighter. Now,
there are many dumbash things that I have heard in
my life, and God knows I've said enough dumbash things,
(27:20):
but never ever have I heard something so completely stupid
that was set out loud that my ears picked up.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Maybe it's just so simple. It's that said. I said
that simple, man, It's that simple.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
One ounce a guy who's a former MVP who hit
two ninety in the postseason last year with four Doggers
and sixteen ribbies. That's one dollar more and six ribbies
more than o'tani had in the playoffs, whose thirty five
total bases were the most, who's nine to fifty one
(27:57):
ops was almost one hundred points higher than any other Dodger.
Let's open our minds, Matt, he needs a lighter bat.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Let's treat them like an eleven year old. Let's light
that that bat needs.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Do that, and maybe I missed this Ireland, you genius.
Do the Dodgers have a staffing problem? Do they not
have a hitting coach? And does that hitting coach not
have fifty assistant hitting coaches? Do they not have like
a freaking army of video guys breaking down every second
of every swing of every player that they need an
idiot radio host to solve the equation by saying, you know,
(28:31):
he swings a thirty one and a half ounce bat,
and in my opinion, what I would do is I
would take one ounce out of that bat, and I
believe that is the solution for a former MVP and
a three time World Series champion to get out of
this slump. That's that's what I would do, is lighten
(28:55):
the bat. Can you imagine suggesting something so completely asinine
and being so sincere about it that you research the
type of bat he swings to prove your point.
Speaker 3 (29:07):
Well, it's possible that the Dodgers may have thought of,
you know, adjusting his bat in some way.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
I would like to believe if that that that has
been discussed MAT.
Speaker 8 (29:18):
Thirty three thirty three length thirty one and a half
ounce bat. I don't know if they regulate that.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
I believe he references the research back in the I
believe he references the research.
Speaker 8 (29:29):
He goes to a letter. I know that for because
I listened to seven ten because I'm a I'm a
Liker fan too. But John Ireland did some research and
did some research thirty three thirty three length.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Now, Matt as a guy that loves to do a
little digging, I do you gotta respect Ireland's research.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
Yes, you know what, I think.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
I think.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
I think he's just got to swing a lighter bat.
I don't think anybody over there could have possibly thought
about that. But I did the research. I radio host
did the research, and maybe this is something that was
overlooked by the touchers. They did not know that he
swings a thirty three inch thirty one and a half
ounce bad. And if we can just dial that thing
down to thirty and a half ounces, I think, you know,
(30:14):
I think maybe this could solve the problem. Now, look,
you want to do the as you discussed earlier, p
the people that were pushing back on Dave and the cheering,
why not just stop giving him the Mookie treatment because
his name's Mookie Beats and shove him down the line
up a little bit and move will Smith up a
little bit. And that's fine. I got no problem with that.
(30:36):
Some of the pragmatists, Yes, you want to use your analytics,
you want to do the numbers game against lefties like
here we go. I did a little of this. See
if I can make it work. Hey, MOOKI today you're
going up against Miles Micholas or Mikolas. Last year, Mookie
hammered this freaking guy three of eight with four runs,
(30:57):
two homers, two ribis, which, by the way, he was
those are real numbers lifetime. He's four to ten in
twelve plate appearance, is hitting four hundred now, that's backed
by numbers. Last year Kate shared the lineup. He's hitting second.
He's hit this guy really well as recently as last year,
and in his career he's hit four hundred. There we
(31:19):
go zero for twenty one. Perhaps tonight is your night
as opposed to you know, I heard John Ireland do
their research and Mookie's swinging a thirty three inch thirty
one and a half once bat.
Speaker 3 (31:33):
I got a couple things here, Matt. Number one, you
have a friend who heard it from a friend. No,
you have a friend who owns a wood bat company.
I do you could one up Ireland and get it
produced and do your own digging though, and be like,
what do you think it is? You know, talk to
(31:54):
your friend about bat dimensions.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
At Glomar, Yeah, at Glomar, and.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
What they would do with a guy whose bat speed
is decreasing and who's in a bad slump. You know
you could talk to your friend.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
Oh that's a great idea. I could come back. But
he needs an axe handle or he needs to move
the center.
Speaker 4 (32:11):
He swings an axe handle already, listen, look at that, Kate.
See we know our bat stuff here.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Right so, and then you could put it right back
on Ireland's forehead.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Now that's I'm gonna have to come up with a
lot more if I'm gonna put it on a seat.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Roldham a genius man. He got that big head. Now, uh,
I have gotten a flurry of text.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
That's good.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
That's say that Ireland on his platform, denied giving this
advice to bookie bats and says no one should listen
to him about hitting. But that's that would be calling
that old man.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
A liar, and I don't want to call that old I.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
Don't think that old man is coming up. He said
that old man. I think Ireland bit off more than
he could chew.
Speaker 8 (32:55):
But John Ireland give some research and he swings a
thirty three thirty three length thirty one and a half
ounce back. I don't know if they regulate that that
that's with the minimum.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
I mean, you can hear it in that man's voice.
That's an honest man, that's a sincere man, and that's
a man who's gonna give credit where credit is due, Like, hey,
this isn't my idea, Okay, I'm repurposing it, and I
am willing to go on AM five to seventy Dodger
talk No. And by the way, Dave dismissed him with
great fury and anger, saying I believe he did. Yes,
I believe he took a shot. I don't know if
you can pull it, Kates, but I believe he said
(33:27):
something along the line, so, oh, great advice from a
guy who plays Sunday softball, something.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Along those Well, I think that's what happened. You know,
that guy went on in referenced.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
Ireland, and then Ireland took all the Ireland rightfully, so right.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
And now Ireland is walking his back, paddling or saying
that he never said that.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
But that's an honest man. You heard what that guy said.
He said that he's been he's been pushing this idea
around to all the different outlets. I think he mentioned
Ilano over there on High heat. He mentioned somebody else
that he was talking to, and that Ireland, and now
he's coming to Dave Bassey and it's all because of
this Ireland feller who decided to share that he's swinging
(34:10):
a thirty three inch thirty one and a half ounce back.
And that's the solution to Mookie's problems. Day's solution was
the right solution. Support him mentally. People stand and cheer
for your Avengers. That's what you do. The bottom line
is there's nothing we can do. We had our man
(34:31):
Gomera on yesterday. They made the bed. They're sleeping in it.
And it's not your money, it's their money. If you
don't like the prices at the park, don't go. There's
tens of thousands of fans who are gonna be happy
to get their cross body booby bag tonight with the
Hello Kitty logo on it.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
Oh, I'm going to cross my boobs.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
And just because Mark Walter is scratching out a three
hundred and fifty million dollar check for this roster this
year and it's currently looking like the worst roster that
that much money can buy. It's not yours to return,
it's not yours to write a scathing review on Yelp
to air your grievance over your expensive purchase that did
you wrong? It is theirs, It is their dime. And
(35:10):
guess what, They're still going to pocket one hundred million
bucks in profit this year, so they're fine. They won
the World Series last year ten and a half months ago.
They are still the reigning World Series champions. And these
fans like our guy Bug on Dodger Talk repurposing an
asinine John Ireland idea to swing a lighter bat. Here's
(35:32):
Dave's dismissal level.
Speaker 9 (35:33):
All right, Well, I know John Ireland played Sunday softball
back in the day, but it's a little bit more
advanced these days. I'll just give you a quick summary
on it. The Dodgers have the technology to be able
to fit a player with the bat that is customized
to them and their swing at this point in time.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Interesting, Who would have ever guessed a franchise that spends
four hundred million bucks a year on players has the
technology based on your swing speed, launch angle, and hard
hit rate to give you the exact bat with the
exact light, in the exact length that you're supposed to swing.
Who could have seen that coming.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
I mean I I my first thought was, wow, you know,
Matt's with his girls eating sweets. He should be in
a better mood to get all mad listening to Dodger talk.
But then I remembered that, like every one of those
yogurt Land cups is like thirty dollars.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
It's thirty eight dollars. I'm not exacting. Hey, do you
want to cash in your rewards? And I was like, yeah,
we got rewards, all of it. And so they gave
us our five dollars and it was like thirty two
sixty eight. There were five of us. I was like, Jesus,
it's it's just yogurt with candy and a little bit
(36:49):
of produce.
Speaker 1 (36:50):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
I mean, that's Ireland's worst nightmare. You know, he he
hears some old man dime him out right assay attacks
him for softball. You happen to be out Lit's bit
at the yogurt Land. Listening at the yogurt Land. It's
like when we catch Geeters saying something You're not safe, Gaeter.
The point being they just freaking won the world. They
(37:14):
humiliated the Padres with a bullpen game. When they were
up two to one, they swung their d so hard
against the Mets, winning every game like with ten or
twelve runs in the NLCS, and then the worst nightmare
of the Yankees five They won it in five, including
a hell of a rally started by an inexplicable air
(37:35):
and center field by Aaron Judge. Celebrate it. You should
get at least a season, at least one season before
people start taking all their potshots and screaming and yelling
and getting as angry as Dave as they have for him.
Just trying to do something nice for a guy on
the Dodgers and stop telling someone they got to swing
a lighter bat, because that's stupid. It's beyond stupid, it's asad.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
What about now we're talking, now, we're working through this.
Speaker 3 (38:04):
Call the glow. We should have the Glomar guy on me.
We should take something up this, you know, we could
bring that guy on and be like, what would you
do for this guy?
Speaker 2 (38:13):
What do you see?
Speaker 3 (38:13):
John? Yeah? And then we can shut and we can
send it, we clip it off and send it over
to Ireland. Like that. They said that guys like they
said that guy's puzzo in a box in game a throat.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Hey, we heard what you were talking about there Island,
you idiot.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Yeah, we can do research too. We know all about stuff.
Speaker 9 (38:36):
Here's a thirty John Ireland played Sunday softball back in
the day.
Speaker 3 (38:41):
But that's not fair to John. Yeah, yeah, DV, that
was a tremendous walk back.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Yes it was, well I just did. That's not what
I said. I would never suggest as much.
Speaker 3 (38:55):
I would never tell a professional hit or how to hit.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Sounds like you did. You're sharing what he's swinging and
whether and wondering whether or not he should be swinging that.
And Dave just clowned you by saying it's the Dodgers.
You don't think they have that technology. And they got
a freaking giant machine from Italy that spits out that
wood immediately. There it is.
Speaker 3 (39:20):
We'll be right back with more reaction to this very
hot story. Stand and deliver for Moki? How do we
solve Muki's problems? Guy makes three hundred million dollars and
we're worried about him. We got help out, man, he's
gonna worry about me. Stand for MOOKI stand with the Avengers.
(39:42):
Sam Lagana in.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
The house, Oh, who's house?
Speaker 3 (39:46):
Rams House? Thanks for listening. We'll be right back with
more great sports. Stop.
Speaker 1 (39:55):
Hello, PMS listener. Did you know AM five sevent sports
has a wide range of LA sports podcasts. There's Rogan
and Rodney.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
That one is my favorite, Dodger Talk with.
Speaker 3 (40:07):
David Vasse, the Dodger Podcast of record.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
Clipper Talk Without a Musk, follow us all and many more.
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Just go to AM five to seventy LA Sports on
the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
Well, somebody told me during the break they're like John
was listening, and I was like, John Ireland's coming on,
but joining us right now to solve Mookie's bats problem
and to prove our supremacy as a technical baseball hitting
show of record. Matt we have the owner operator of
(40:41):
Glomar Wood Bats, which is I mean, that's not scrambled eggs.
Speaker 2 (40:45):
No, made right here in Seal Beach, California. Former quarterback
at the University of Washington, pitcher at San Diego State
built and produced airplane parts and airplane part manufacturer. Moved
on from that business to reopen Glomar Bats. The bat
of Chipper Jones, the bat of many of Vlad Guerrero
(41:09):
was a Glomar bat guy and it is now back
and better than ever. And he is here to help
us solve this issue that an idiot AM radio host
couldn't solve. Up the dial a little bit.
Speaker 3 (41:20):
Well, no one solved it, you know. I mean, we're
in the midst We're in the throes of confusion. It's
John Mintor of Glomar Bats on the Petros and Man Show,
Southern California, Toyota Dealers Celebrity Hotline. What's Crag and John?
Welcome to the show. Thank you for listening and calling in.
Speaker 10 (41:37):
Yeah, what's up guys, Thanks for having me.
Speaker 3 (41:39):
We're thrilled that you would join us. When you heard
us talking about it. What was going through your mind?
And what do you think is going to happen in
this situation?
Speaker 10 (41:49):
I don't know, man, I mean I was laughing because
so much goes into these guys and the bats, I mean,
all of their equipment, but the bats they use especially,
so it's really impossible to say, oh, he should be
using a lighter bat or a heavier bat.
Speaker 3 (42:05):
I mean, that's that's dismissive, just to say, hey, let's
light up the bat a little bit off there, just
a little bit.
Speaker 10 (42:11):
He might be glazing over just a few a few
pH TODs looking into the in his best interest.
Speaker 2 (42:19):
So when someone says I've got the solution, he swings
a thirty three inch, thirty one and a half ounce bat.
Let's just take an ounce off to thirty and a
half ounces. What would that as someone who makes these
bats for professional hitters, John, what would that do? What
would that solve for Mookie Bets giving him thirty and
a half ounces on thirty three inches instead of thirty
one and a half ounces.
Speaker 10 (42:41):
I mean it's just that so it just very is
very dependent on the player. I mean, it could completely
ruin his swing, or maybe maybe it might help a
little bit. But you know, these guys work all off
season like dialing in and honeying in exactly what they're
going to use, like what and what handle, what model,
(43:02):
the distribution of weight m o I like, moment of inertia,
balance point, all that stuff. So it's definitely not like
just as easy as hey, just make the bat lighter
and that's going to solve his problem.
Speaker 2 (43:13):
I believe I heard an MOI and then explain to
us at this moment, again, this is a man who
was building airplane parts before he got into the bat
making business. To put into a context, how complicated. These
things are what's the biggest change, Like how big would
one ounce? How big of a change would one ounce
be compared to like the biggest change that one of
(43:33):
your professional hitters has asked you to make to a bat.
Speaker 10 (43:37):
I mean one ounce change is a massive change, like
for you know, for someone like that, I mean, that's
that's that's a really really big change, especially for an
established guy at that point in his career. He's been
using probably the same bat for you know, at least
four or five years. My guess is my guess, you know,
and I think he'd he'd have he'd had some other
problems with his hammet bone, so you switched to it
(43:59):
on axe handle, I believe. So, I mean, this is
the guy who's put a ton of work into selecting
his bat. So I mean, probably the most I've ever adjusted,
like for a player within his season is like a
half an ounce, Like at most, that's the most I've
ever done.
Speaker 3 (44:14):
Well, he swings a rival bat, and maybe it's time
for him to walk on the sunny side of the street.
You know, he's out there with that company in Pennsylvania.
So you can't just send him a torpedo bat and
call it a day here.
Speaker 10 (44:29):
Yeah, we could if he wants you man, I mean,
you know, like like you said it though, I mean,
there's so much to go into his baths, even the
torpedo bats. I mean, you know, we got some stuff
from a team for a minor league player and they
want a very specific movement of the sweet spot and
that's really the way you do a torpedo. But but
we'd love to make any bassomok if he wants to.
(44:50):
But I'm pretty sure he's good, So I don't know.
Speaker 2 (44:54):
He's over for twenty one, so what would you well,
you know how much of that's on the bat? Though?
Is he using the bat? John? Is the axe handle?
What's screwing him that he should? He not have used that?
By the way, what is an axe handle? What does
that mean?
Speaker 10 (45:06):
So an ax handle takes like a regular baseball bat
and then replaces that completely symmetrical round knob with what
you would typically see on the X on the end
of an actual axe. So it takes all the pressure
off your hamletbone, you know, if there is any depending
on what handle you've selected.
Speaker 3 (45:24):
Thank God for Matt Smith for socializing. John Mintor from
Glomar Bats is is our guest, and it's actually really enlightening, uh,
just talking about the mooki bet situation and how specific
and how complex these measurements actually really are. Yeah, is
(45:45):
it hard? Maybe I'm just stupid, but is it hard
to find wood that was struck by lightning? Is that
the only kind of wood that you guys use? But seriously,
where where do you are you guys? Like in the sequoias,
like at night trying to cut down a big as tree, Like,
how does it work?
Speaker 6 (46:01):
No?
Speaker 10 (46:01):
Now, most of the most of the maple comes from
the northeast of the United States, a little bit in
like kind of the southern Canada on the eastern side
of the country. But that that is where the weather
is like the best, and you get kind of the
best maple. Typically all comes from that kind of that band.
Speaker 2 (46:21):
And then was I correct? And as we finish it
up here, John John Minter from Glomar Bats, have him
make your child or your minor league or your professional
athlete a bat the best bats in the world. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (46:35):
When my kid enters the wood bat league, you know,
the first guy I'm gonna call, It's not gonna be
that dork in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (46:42):
Get access the the was I correct in my Is
it the Italians that make the bat making machines? Is
that right that they spit these things out? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (46:53):
Yeah they do.
Speaker 10 (46:54):
Yeah, that's an Italian company that makes a really good
wood lathe that all kinds of stuff, does axe handles,
it does barrel hardening. I mean it's it's a really
cool machine.
Speaker 2 (47:07):
And I believe Blomar is now also making the whatever
those things are called now, the BB cores or that
sort of stuff.
Speaker 7 (47:14):
Yep, yeah we are.
Speaker 10 (47:15):
We just released our first BB Corps for high school
and college age kids, and we got another model coming
out at the end of the year. Probably gonna start
a USA line for youth bass as well later this year.
Speaker 3 (47:26):
There we go, beautiful Stupcher's in John Mintor, thank you
guys of Glomar. We appreciate you, John, thank you for listening,
thank you for being a friend, and thank you for
making us so much cooler than any other local radio
show in town. Elementary Idiots shave Off announced you stupid.
Speaker 2 (47:47):
I think that that would probably ruin his swing.
Speaker 3 (47:52):
Daniel Jeremiah tried to make a late song request, but
he's out and we're in with the in crowd. He
wanted more bounce to the ounce. Oh good one, yeah,
pretty good for the bad good one. But we are
with the I mean we know the glomar back guy.
We are in with the ink crop. How about that man,
(48:12):
that's a real that's a real conversation about slup slop batting.
Speaker 2 (48:16):
That's an engineer there, you're an engineer.
Speaker 4 (48:18):
Now, are you get that? Calling a Dodger talks just
like sitting in the corner of his house somewhere.
Speaker 3 (48:22):
Just like what in the in the fetal position right,
and Ireland's calling up, like, how could you do that?
