00:00Listen, I'm pretty sure this call is going to piss me off.
00:02And that's a great question.
00:04Thank you, Buster.
00:04Let's find out.
00:05It's Marlon in Concord.
00:06Hi, Marlon.
00:07Thank you for calling.
00:09Hey, guys.
00:10Hey, I just felt the need to call in.
00:12You know, I was being transparent.
00:14I'm a big Dodgers fan.
00:15Yep.
00:16But I was trying to say, man, I'm hopeful for the Giants,
00:20and I'm saying hopeful that it was a bad start, you know.
00:24I know Schlitter was one of their up-and-coming pitchers for the Yankees.
00:30But I think maybe we're reading a little too much into it.
00:33I think baseball has changed.
00:37You know, like 10 years ago, all the aces would start off with zero ERAs.
00:41It seemed like for a few weeks.
00:43But look what happened.
00:44I mean, Logan got tagged up.
00:47We also saw Skeens get tagged up.
00:50And I just can't see a rise in some of these hitters, you know, stay cold.
00:55I do say, as a Dodgers fan, I hate the Padres.
01:00More than the Giants.
01:01I don't like this wannabe rivalry with the Padres.
01:04And honestly, and this is just being objective,
01:07the Dodgers should have lost two against the Diamondbacks.
01:10It took some later ending heroics in a home run, or if not, we'd be one and two.
01:16So I'm just trying to say, man, have some hope.
01:19I see the Giants turning it around.
01:21And even though I'll say go Dodgers, I'd rather the Giants win than the Padres and the Dodgers go.
01:25So Marlon, Marlon, before you hang up.
01:28You pissed off my partner.
01:29He hung up.
01:30He hung up.
01:31And I think Marlon.
01:32Nothing worse than getting a pep talk from a Dodger.
01:34You hang in there, little Giants.
01:36I thought that call was going to piss me off.
01:38Go Dodgers.
01:39And it pissed me off even more than I thought it was going to piss me off.
01:42And Marlon came on, and he thought that I was upset because a Dodger fan called.
01:47I don't have any problem.
01:49If you're a Dodger fan, be a Dodger fan.
01:51I got a problem if you wear a Dodger hat to a Giants-Yankees game.
01:54You weren't here for that.
01:56I attacked somebody out at the Ferry Building.
01:58Wait, you didn't.
01:59I did.
02:00Attacked him?
02:00Verbally.
02:01Oh, there you go.
02:02I was in the middle of making a point to Grandy, and this dude walks out with a Dodger hat
02:06with his lovely lady who's wearing a Yankee uniform.
02:10A uniform?
02:11Well, like a jersey and a hat.
02:12Okay.
02:13And I'm talking to Grandy, and this guy catches my eye, and I couldn't even finish my sentence.
02:18And I just yelled at him.
02:20What are you doing?
02:22What are you wearing that for?
02:24They're not here today.
02:27So if it were a Cubs hat, then you're just a dude from Chicago.
02:31But if you're wearing a Dodger hat to a Yankee-Giant game, you're purposely trolling the people you're going to
02:38be sitting with.
02:39That's the only reason you would have for doing that.
02:42And the guy got sheepish really quick, and he's like, honestly, I think I'm going to go buy a Yankee
02:47hat.
02:48Wow.
02:49There goes another listener.
02:51No.
02:54No, I'm like, then that's good.
02:56Buy a Yankee hat.
02:58What did I do wrong?
02:59Don't be a jerk.
03:00Some people just like the color blue.
03:02But don't.
03:03Some people are not doing it just because they want to troll you and Giants fans.
03:06But that's what, you have to know that.
03:09If I went, like, I'm sorry if this is going to really get people, but if I went to the
03:13Democratic Convention wearing a Make America Great hat, I'm not just wearing my hat.
03:20Don't get mad at me.
03:21I'm just wearing my hat.
03:22No, you're purposely.
03:23That's totally different.
03:23It's not.
03:24It's completely different.
03:26Like it is, but it's not.
03:27You know what I mean.
03:28I do.
03:29Like I'm overstating the comparison.
03:31If you just were wearing a red hat.
03:32Then that, yes.
03:33Or even a Reds hat.
03:35But don't wear a Dodger hat to a Giants-Yankee game.
03:40You're purposefully trying to trigger people.
03:43Don't do that.
03:44Not necessarily, but yeah.
03:46We got enough fights in the stands.
03:48Like, just.
03:49Do we?
03:49They're not here.
03:50Dodger Stadium was all alive again yesterday.
03:53We were throwing hands?
03:55Dodger on Dodger crime.
03:57Nice.
03:57Upper deck.
04:00$350 tickets for opening weekend.
04:02Let's get drunk and.
04:04There were Dodger fans fighting other Dodger fans?
04:07Go Dodger fans.
04:08Go Dodgers.
04:10Anyway, I digress.
04:11That call was probably the worst experience I've ever had in my entire life.
04:15That call right there.
04:16Wow.
04:17Pretty tough.
04:18So, now we've got a Dodger fan.
04:21A, admitting that he thinks the Padres are their actual rival.
04:24He hates them more.
04:26And B, we are being sunned and patted on the head to the level where Dodger fans like,
04:35boy, I really hope you guys can pick it up.
04:38You know, so like we can all, we can do this together.
04:42We can have like a baseball season.
04:44And it would be cute if you guys could, I don't know, like lose 4-2 instead of 14-0.
04:51So, that's what I'm rooting for.
04:53The fact that the Giants fans got sunned right there, that was the part of the call that I knew
04:58would drive you crazy.
04:59Because basically, Dodger fan patted you on the head and said,
05:03you're not our rival.
05:04We hate the Padres much more.
05:06But you know what, Giants?
05:07Hang in there.
05:08There'll be brighter days ahead.
05:10Go ahead and get in the race.
05:11And then we can recognize you as, I don't know, not being the Rockies or the Diamondbacks.
05:16Marlon heard me say don't hang up right as he hung up.
05:18So, he called back.
05:20Hey, Marlon, do you understand why that upset me?
05:23Like, you didn't do anything wrong.
05:25I don't mind that you're a Dodger fan.
05:27But as a Giant fan who actually believes his favorite team is, you know, a major league team,
05:33I don't need fans of the other team being like,
05:36boy, you know, just, you guys, I hope that you, you know, go through puberty sometime soon
05:42so that you can play real baseball games this year.
05:45Do you know what I mean?
05:46That's kind of how that felt.
05:48I'm sorry about that.
05:49No, the reason I was saying the Padres thing is that's like a five-year-old narrative
05:56that I don't believe, and I really don't like Padres fans.
06:01But, yeah, I hear that, too.
06:03I didn't mean it to come off with some sort of a tone that, you know,
06:08I'm putting my hand on anybody's head.
06:10I just don't think the Giants are as bad as their 0-3 record state.
06:15I hope so.
06:15Yeah, Marlon, you don't need to apologize to anyone.
06:18Like, this is all, first of all, it's kind of tough.
06:20Thank you for using your minutes to call back, your cell minutes, your precious minutes.
06:23It's tongue-in-cheek, but, like, yeah, you know, Marlon, thank you.
06:28Thank you for calling the show.
06:29You're obviously a good dude.
06:30I, like, you didn't do anything wrong.
06:32As good as you can being a Dodger fan, right?
06:34Yeah, yeah, yeah.
06:35I mean, you have to couch that.
06:36Right, right.
06:36No, you're evil, clearly.
06:39Like, you're a horrible human being.
06:40But as far as among the people who are horrible, you're one of the best.
06:43Right.
06:46You're the king.
06:47You're the king of the Dodger fans, which means you're a 3 out of 10.
06:51You're the best awful person I've talked to in weeks.
06:56Does that work?
06:57Yeah, that feels much better, much more authentic.
06:59I got a lineup.
07:01For the Giants?
07:02I got a lineup.
07:03Okay.
07:04And I would like to give, Lucas, did you look at it?
07:08Have you seen it?
07:09Yeah, but that was, like, 10 minutes ago, so I kind of forgot.
07:12No, but you're out.
07:12You're out.
07:13Randy, have you seen it?
07:14I have not.
07:14Okay, Dibs, okay, so each of you, I'm going to give each of you two guesses just at who's
07:21leading off.
07:22Okay.
07:23Okay?
07:24Can you tell us, is it indeed different than past lineups, or do we not get that hint?
07:28That's cheating.
07:28He plays for the Giants.
07:30That's my clue.
07:31Ah, thanks.
07:31All right.
07:33So, each of you get two guesses.
07:36Dibs first, because he actually hosts the show.
07:38Randy, you're overconfident this week, so you go second.
07:41And we can do it snake style if we want.
07:44Dibs gets one and four.
07:45Randy, you get guesses two and three.
07:47All right?
07:48Who's leading off for the Giants tonight?
07:51And let's see if, as a tandem, you guys can get this right before we're done.
07:56All right.
07:57All right.
07:57So, go ahead.
07:57I mean, it's probably easier to say who's not leading off and work, kind of reverse
08:01engineer it.
08:02And what Evan said in the crossover hit me about, you want your best hitter to be hit in second.
08:07So, for me, that's Devers.
08:09It wouldn't be him.
08:10It wouldn't be Ramos.
08:11It wouldn't be Chappie.
08:13It wouldn't be any of the bottom three, Bader, Bailey, and Casey Schmidt.
08:18So, you're left with just a pool of the rest of them.
08:21And so, I'm going to go with Jung-Hoo Lee as the leadoff hitter.
08:25Jung-Hoo Lee is?
08:27Oh.
08:28Sorry.
08:29Hold on.
08:30Okay.
08:30Incorrect.
08:31Hit the thing.
08:32Jung-Hoo Lee.
08:33I'm not going to tell you where they are batting because that starts to give more clues.
08:37I'll let you know afterwards.
08:38Granny, it's not Jung-Hoo Lee.
08:39Would you like to take a crack at it?
08:41I know Dibbs said it wasn't going to be this guy, but I think there's a decent chance it could
08:45be this guy.
08:46I'm going to guess Elliot Ramos leading off.
08:48Elliot Ramos.
08:50Sorry.
08:51That is not Elliot Ramos.
08:52Go ahead, Granny.
08:52Get to guess again.
08:53Oh, I get to guess again.
08:54I forgot.
08:56Hmm.
08:58I agree with Dibbs.
08:59It's not Devers.
09:00I would bat Devers second.
09:02I know we're not there in the lineup.
09:05Think through it.
09:08Harrison Bader.
09:09No, it's not Bader.
09:10I agree it's not Chapman.
09:12No, it's not Bader.
09:13It can't be Bailey or Schmidt.
09:14I don't think they're going back to Arise.
09:17Is it Willie Adamas?
09:23Grandy.
09:25Who can pick the lead off?
09:28Get a second guess.
09:30Adamas?
09:30Right.
09:31Okay.
09:31Now react to Willie Adamas.
09:34Give the full lineup, Will.
09:35Let people know.
09:36All right.
09:37Leading off and playing shortstop.
09:41Willie Adamas.
09:43I won't do this for all nine.
09:45Batting second.
09:47And being the designated hitter.
09:53Rafael Devers.
09:55Batting third, Elliot Ramos.
09:58Batting fourth, second baseman, Luis Arise.
10:02What the hell?
10:03Big stick Luis.
10:05Batting fifth, the third baseman, Chappie.
10:08Batting sixth, the right fielder, Jung, Hu, Lee.
10:13Batting seventh and in center field, Harrison Bader.
10:17Batting eighth and doing the catching in the squat.
10:21Patrick Bailey.
10:22And batting ninth.
10:23And playing first base, Casey Schmidt.
10:27The bottom five hitters so far this year, three for 47.
10:30Oh, good.
10:31Good.
10:32It's better than two for 47.
10:33Landon Roop will be on the mound making his season debut.
10:36All right.
10:36My little JBT.
