Oh well, I mean where I am right now, I
gave you the right info, but where I live is
a little bit warmer, and.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
So it can vary that much.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Micro climates here depending on where you are. I mean
every you know, every little area of LA is totally
different because some are near the ocean and some are
in different valleys.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Every valley is different. So when they give the weather forecasts.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
They give the beaches, the valleys, the mountains, and the
desert because a lot of areas of LA are up
in the desert areas, so it's it.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Can be totally different.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
You can have one area that will have a high
of sixty in one area that'll be one hundred and ten.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
And they're all in LA.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Like within with without traffic, within an hour of each other.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Lastly, Yeah, to drive up in the desert areas of
LA or out to the beach areas of LA.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Totally different. So yeah, they have to do like four
forecasts just for the city of La.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Okay, that's interesting.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yeah, all the valley climates are totally different than the beaches,
totally different from the mountains.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Makes sense. Yeah, and you've just lived there so long,
it's just normal. I've never that's fascinating. Excuse me, fascinating
to me because I've never lived anywhere where they have
to do that.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
You know, in California is the same thing.
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Yeah, because there's just so many different climates people live
in that some people are in mountains, somewhere in the
valley is going to have a totally different temperature holding.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
On to the heat.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
And yeah, so it can be thirty degree difference all
in the same city, thirty forty degrees depending on where
you are.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
Yeah. I got to be honest, you know, when do
sports fans go too far? Like and before we get
into this, I started thinking, I totally don't agree with
you know, the online sports gambling threats, you know, people
threatening play and all that. That is absolutely just there's
no place for any of that. Sure, as far as
(03:05):
ridiculing this particular while it sucks. I looked at this
and I was like, what he was like crying over this?
And I'm trying to not be insensitive here, but at
the same time, I just feel like, I'm like, is
this a result of is this guy really young? Was
he a ninth place ribbon kind of guy growing up?
(03:28):
To me?
Speaker 3 (03:28):
He's yeah, he's an All Star second baseman. I don't
get it, man, Yeah, so, and the question that's really
coming up now in sports of windows fan behavior cross
that line.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
But so what this is?
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Cad tell Marte star second basement for the Diamondbacks. Up
at bat in Chicago, somebody in the stand started tauning
him about his mother, who died in a car crash
in twenty seventeen, and while he was batting, he kind
of clearly something was getting his attention. He was looking around,
looked shocked, but then went back into the dugout, came
out to field and he was sobbing, and the announcers
(04:00):
were left stunned.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
They were unaware of what was going on in that moment.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Sound like this, Tell Marte in tears, kneeling down behind
second base being consoled by his teammates. Now we can
only speculate as to what bad news that Katel has received,
but he was very emotional out there as Beaks comes
in to face Austin Slater, the pinch hitter, and Slater
banning for Rojas flies out no idea why Kateel was
(04:24):
in tears.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
So his team and manager Tory Lovello, they ran out.
They started comforting him and hugging him on the field,
trying to figure out what was going on, and Levello
was able to point out the fan who had been
yelling the comments about Marte's mom. The fan was ejected.
Sources are telling our partners ESPN that that person is
now banned, possibly for life, from all Major league stadiums
because of it, and Lovello saying.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
Fans are nasty and fans go too far sometimes, and
I love my players and I'm gonna protect them.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
So in April, there was a fan in Cleveland who
toned Red Sox outfielder Jared Duran, who had shared a
document that he had attempted suicide, and the fan was
taunting him about suicide and the aspects of that.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
That fan was ejected as well. In Duranson.
Speaker 5 (05:09):
I'm just happy that the security handled it and the
umpires were aware of it and they took care of
before me.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Such as baseball, there was a fan recently who made
racial comments at Olympic gold Medal Scabby Thomas from the
stands as well, yelling all kinds of things. But yesterday
in Chicago, the White Sox they apologize. They had big
sign reading Baseball's family and apologizing to Tamarte, a lot
of the players coming up and hugging them, and Lablo adding.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
For human beings and we have emotions and I love
you and I'm with you, and we're all together and
you're not alone.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Yeah, there is some good that has come from this.
Fans have been donating quite a bit to charities in
Marte's mom's name, so money has been raised.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
In that way.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
But there are a number of sports stars who have
come out and said that they believe that things are
now crossing the line with comments that are being made.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
They link back.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
We don't know in this case, but overall to the
ease of sports betting now on apps, you know, just
like trading stocks now that they feel like there's more
online that's not as underground. Calling a bookie and just
everybody's doing it that now with the monetary aspect to it,
the people are a lot meaner because they've got a
lot more money and just the ease of everybody doing it,
(06:14):
and they think there's more anger out there that they're
linking back to the sports betting on apps and just
the ease of it. But whatever caused it, he was
very emotional on the field. The White Sox have apologized
and that fan is out.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Yeah. I As far as getting ejected from that game,
I'm like, okay, yeah, get him out. Whatever. The players
shouldn't have to deal with, you know that, especially if
the guy kept on. But as far as like they're
talking about a lifetime ban, I was just like, oh lordy,
lord now look the racial stuff. DA know that you
can't I definitely agree with now you can't do that.
(06:49):
But as far as man, listen, I got friends and
you may too, Alex. That professional NFL players, and you
should hear the stuff that said to them. That they
say to each other and all like they line up
and it's unbelievable the stuff that they say to each other.
And I just I am in shock that this guy
(07:09):
that got he got affected like this from this. I
mean it's really sad, don't get me wrong, especially with
his mom and the car crash and all of that.
But it blows me away that this, this guy, this nobody,
this fan somehow got to him like that. It's great.
Speaker 3 (07:25):
Yeah, I mean, it clearly did. And he was able
to hear all of it as well. It wasn't just
you know, noise in the stadium, but but he he
reacted in the moment and it clearly hit him in
that way. And his team's rallying behind him. They were
emotional about it as well, and all the hugs and
everything out on the field.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
So we'll see.
Speaker 3 (07:42):
But it has created the conversation about you know, if
as a fan, are you able to say just anything
you want in the in the stadium or is there
a line?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (07:51):
Yeah, very suling to get punched in the mouth if
you go overboard. I think that's what it comes down to.
You don't know what was in this guy's head before
he heard the builg. He might've been having a thought
that we don't even know about, right, And human beings
are human beings. I don't care how much they're paid
or what they're wearing.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, all right, Alec Stone, ABC News, Thanks
for this. I appreciate it, man, Thanks see you, brother. Yeah,
I I one thousand percent don't agree with abusing them.
But also at the same time, for him, for the
they're talking about a lifetime ban. No way, it's just like, what, yeah,
that's kind of it's like he didn't he didn't assault, Like, yeah,
(08:30):
it was verbal or saying the stuff. And if it
was motivated because he's trying to get the guy to
screw up, because he has a bunch of money, you know,
and he's trying to do anything he can to help,
you know, skew the game one way or another. Yes,
if you could get to the bottom of that, then
it's just like, ah, but man, if you're just would
I do that?
Speaker 4 (08:50):
Now?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
I absolutely wouldn't yell stuff at But I just feel
like that's particularly egregious, Like, yeah, you're gonna be we're
gonna ban you from every sting.
Speaker 6 (08:58):
But if you're in right field and you go, hey,
catching the ball is a good thing. Yeah, you know,
that's that's normal baseball fan stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Or football whatever. But you go after their mom, that's
a different matter. Yeah. Yeah, And they can't punch any
Think about what they're worth. They're not gonna do that.
Think about it, they get the hell suit out of them.
You know they're not gonna They can't just punch a fan.
There has the fan has to start some sort of
physical thing first, I would think. And then still they're
not in the clear.
