Oh, man. I will never feel this. I don't have
a daughter. I'll never have a daughter. The odds are.

It's never too late, but yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:08):
Good morning, Kaplan. It's Picks 106.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Justin Verlander, a longtime MLB pitcher, is pitching his last
game for the Tigers. They're at home.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Clearly like one of the greats.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
One of the greats. I mean, how long is that career?
I don't even know. Long time.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
So long, yeah.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
I don't remember baseball without him. One of those guys.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Exactly.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
So anyway, he's wrapping it up. The manager's coming out
to get him, but they've got something planned here. His
daughter's going to come out. It's very emotional. If you
guys saw this, this is going to get him.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
He is not going to the mouth.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Picking up on it.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
He starts. He's going to get.

Little kid waiting for him by the dugout.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Bravo, Herland.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Wow, what a life he's made.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
He's tears. He's hugging all his teammates.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
That must crush you with your daughter, right?
Speaker 2 (01:37):
Me?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Yeah, it makes you must think.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
About your daughter. Just think about your family in general,
you know? Yeah. After a long career like that.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I mean, you ever just crushed it here at the
radio show? No, but... Your daughter comes and congratulates you.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
When we landed certain jobs, when I was able to
get better jobs for my family, I think we all
kind of felt that.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
That's a good feeling.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
Coming out of Western Mass, taking this job 15 years ago,
that's a step up for me.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Yeah, man.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
Now him and his daughter holding hands, walking off the
field together.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Man.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
And they'll be greeted by his wife.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
The pitches he threw from 60 feet 6 inches. The speed....
Speaker 3 (02:16):
At which she ran out to the mound. Might be
the most important thing we've seen today.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Well said, by the way.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
That's cool, that's cool.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Might be the most important thing we've seen today. I
love that.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
So that inspired me.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Yeah, tell what you did.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
I went over and watched For the Love of the Game, 1999,
Kevin Costner, Kelly Preston. He's a Detroit Tigers pitcher. He
finds himself at Yankee Stadium. The team's about to be
sold from the family guy to the corporate world.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Oh, I remember that.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
And they're going to trade him. Oh, yes.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Classic baseball, American baseball game.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
He goes out there and he throws a no-no.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Oh, man.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
That was very emotional as well.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
See, I love that.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
It touched you. It did. It moved me. It really did.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
It touched the rest of the country, I'm sure, who
saw it. You can see it on our Facebook page
right now.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
For those of you who were with us at 530
when we opened the show, we always kind of play
a clip of some kind of song that maybe you
haven't heard.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
It's just, I'm on to like... I'm in that 1999 groove. Nice, dude.
That's a good time. Just be careful. Know what you're
getting into.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
There's some scary stuff that period of time, too.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
I just played Shaggy. I don't know if that's really
cheesy or if that's cool. I can't remember.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
I think it's got a little bit of a cheese factor,
but it's also got a wicked cool factor, too.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
22 million views usually suggest cheese to a degree.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
That was lovely. That was amazing. When my dog came
over To the pillow the other day. It's about as
close as I'll feel to that. That's why all I
have to do.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Brody ran so fast out to. Well, you haven't done
anything for like 19 years yet. Not with her.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
That's true. Yeah, good point. Yeah, wow. That is touching,
you guys. Go see it on Facebook right now.
