00:00His numbers on the sportsbook, home run totals and things like that,
00:03are shooting up, I think in part because people are watching him
00:06and in part because he's proved he's healthy against the best in the world.
00:10But this experience is going to go a long, long way for him.
00:13And I now believe that, and I was wrong about that
00:15because I initially just wanted him to get in and get ready
00:18for the Red Sox season and not deal with this distraction,
00:20and this is going to make him so much better.
00:22Yeah, I think it is.
00:23It's going to be the coolest experience for them
00:24because not only are you wearing the USA uniform and hat and all that stuff,
00:27but then when you're just in the lineup and you're in the dugout
00:30and you're like, oh yeah, there's Bryce Harper and Aaron Judge and Bobby Witt
00:34and Kyle Schwarber, all the best players in the world,
00:37MVPs, 50 home run guys, World Series winners,
00:40and you're in that lineup and you're essentially an everyday player for that team.
00:45That's going to give you a ton of confidence just to be with them,
00:49and then you're out there performing, and in a 2-1 game,
00:52you're hitting a home run, so you feel like you belong immediately
00:56for a guy that's played less than, what, 150 or 100 Major League Baseball games?
01:01He's going into year two, like already having this level.
01:05Yeah, you can't really ask for much more.
01:076-1-7, 7-7-9, 7-9-3-7.
01:10What do you think of this World Baseball Classic with the USA
01:13on the precipice of bringing home yet another championship, Keefe?
01:18First it was hockey.
01:19Now it looks like the USA baseball team may, just may,
01:22get this done coming up.
01:23Red Sox fingerprints are all over it, at least for Team USA,
01:26although Twitch chat is pointing out Weiser, it's been really good for Italy.
01:29That's true.
01:30Yeah.
01:30Text line also pointing out Suarez, not so good the other day.
01:33Also true.
01:33Can't have everything.
01:34On Team USA, Roman Anthony, Garrett Whitlock all over it.
01:38Anthony announcing his presence to the entire sport.
01:42The World Baseball.
