00:00James Wood hit an inside-the-park grand slam.
00:03Have you seen the highlights?
00:04So I saw that's the most Mets thing ever.
00:07So how many errors happen in this?
00:10Doug, the Mets.
00:11Were there any errors?
00:13Because I can't see an inside-the-park home run in the majors
00:16without someone doing something stupid.
00:18There's no errors.
00:19The ball took an outrageous bounce off the wall,
00:23and was it the center fielder and the right fielder
00:27almost collided in midair trying to catch it,
00:30so then there was nobody to even play the carom off the wall.
00:33And Wood has real speed.
00:35You don't think of it with a 6'7 dude.
00:39The errors came, I think, in the subsequent inning
00:42when they had two errors on one play.
00:45It was a remarkable bad showing of baseball from the New York Mets.
00:50And for everybody that wanted to chirp me the night before,
00:53because Tischler and our boy Tarek were texting me
00:56when the Nats gave up 12 in the 12th.
00:59I texted them last night.
01:00I said, the text thread's awfully quiet, fellas.
01:02Where's the chirping now from the New York Mets crowd?
01:05They like to yap, but they don't like to be yapped at.
01:09White Bryant, in an embarrassing season for your New York Mets,
01:12was last night perhaps the most embarrassing?
01:15Yeah, and I got to stop going to games.
01:17I went last year.
01:18They blew a 7-0 lead.
01:19I go this year, it's a 5-0 lead.
01:21And they revert into...
01:23So you and Ryan Clary are the same people.
01:26I guess so.
01:27Y'all just screw y'all teams.
01:29I need you to show up the Giants games too.
01:31I bet on the Nats last night and they won.
01:33I'm now 2-0 this week.
01:34Finally.
01:35I was watching the game.
01:36Colco did a great job.
01:38So the Nats get to inside the park grand slam from James Wood.
01:41Then the next inning, they get three runs that are mostly just junk.
01:45Guys got on base.
01:46There were a ton of errors.
01:47And they got three more runs.
01:49All of a sudden, it's 7-5.
01:51And Dan said, he's like, I'd like to take a quick moment just to remind all of our viewers
01:55that it was 5-0 Mets about 15 minutes ago.
01:58Like, they coughed up that lead so fast.
02:02It was a fun one to watch.
02:05It just shows you when you have a team that's good and a team that's not.
02:09Teams that are not good always make stupid mistakes.
02:12You might be right, Big.
02:14I don't know.
02:15Dylan Cruz was back up last night.
02:18He had a hit, right?
02:19What did he go?
02:20One for four?
02:20I think he scored, too.
02:22No, he didn't score.
02:23Just one for four.
02:25I think I listened to Taboney, everything he said.
02:30Cruz went down to the minors.
02:31You know who had a really good article on it?
02:33What's my man's name that covers the Nats for the Athletic?
02:36Nussbaum?
02:37Yeah, Spencer Nussbaum.
02:38Nussbaum went in-depth on it.
02:40And had, I guess he had either some reporting or just had an on-the-record conversation with the skip
02:45from AAA.
02:47And he basically said, with Cruz, there were two things we needed to see.
02:51It was get the ball in the air more and to stop chasing pitches.
02:56And they, like this new regime, this Taboney-Butera regime, they have specific metrics tied to that, right?
03:03Like, they want 25% more balls in the air, whatever it is.
03:07And they said, you know, when Cruz first got to Rochester, he was chasing, everything was a mess.
03:12And that he took the metrics they gave him to heart.
03:16And they said he looked like a different player.
03:18I believe that.
03:19I believe that's why they called him up.
03:22To Taboney's credit, he said this has nothing to do with his service clock.
03:27Us keeping him down in the minors for six weeks-ish, is my guess,
03:31has nothing to do with gaining an extra year of organizational control.
03:37I'm going to see.
03:38I have a hard time believing it, but he said it has nothing to do with it.
03:41I'll take what he said, but I'm not buying it.
03:43Right.
03:43Right, right, right.
03:44Yeah.
03:45I think it always has something to do with that.
03:47Sure.
03:49I was glad they won last night, especially after the kind of terrible way they lost the night before.
03:54Nats baseball is fun to watch.
03:56They are a game below .500.
03:58They could get to .500 tonight against the Mets.
04:00Now, there is real conversation about the weather this week.
04:05We're all going to Dewey.
04:07Hell, I guess we're going to Dewey tomorrow afternoon, right?
04:10Yeah, Jay.
04:11That's what Thursday is, right?
04:12Yeah, Thursday Thursday for sure.
04:15Now, the Nats have the game tonight against the Mets, and then tomorrow at 4 o'clock.
04:20The weather today, dude, how mad would you be about this?
04:25I have a good friend at a club you and I both know well.
04:28Not mine, but another one of the Montgomery County clubs.
04:33What?
04:34No, no, I was messing with you.
04:35Yeah, yeah.
04:36Okay.
04:37They had a member guest, a one-day member guest scheduled for today.
04:40Yeah.
04:40That they canceled preemptively yesterday for thunderstorms.
04:45Today.
04:45Today.
04:47Nothing but sun.
04:48I'm looking at my phone.
04:5025% chance of thunderstorms tonight at 8 o'clock at night.
04:52How mad would you be if you had planned a member guest for a month, and then they cancel
04:57it a day early for storms that never come?
04:59Well, I would have already taken off work, so I'd be planning golf today somewhere.
05:02He's doing that.
05:02Yeah, yeah.
05:03I would make up for it.
05:05And I think based off of the club that Jeff said, I have some fun with it.
05:11Jeff's going to a different club.
05:12Yeah, yeah.
05:13Some type of stadium something.
05:15Yeah.
05:16Is that the course in Arizona, TPC?
05:18Yeah, the TPC stadium course.
05:20Yeah, yeah, that's it, that's it.
05:21Now, the Mets and the Nats are scheduled to play tomorrow at 4 o'clock.
05:25The weather's supposed to be god-awful tomorrow.
05:29Stallion thinks they're going to move that Mets-Nats game up to like 11 a.m.
05:33Why Brian is convinced they will not, because Major League Baseball, he claims, hates the
05:38Mets.
05:39I don't think that makes much sense.
05:40I don't think Major League Baseball hate the Mets.
05:42I just think the people that have to watch them on TV hates the Mets.
05:45I think the Mets hate the Mets.
05:46Yeah, yeah.
05:46Why do you think MLB hates the Mets, dude?
05:49I think it's more the Nats, but Major League Baseball, too.
05:52You think the Nats hate the Mets?
05:54Yeah, it's their call.
05:54How does that work?
05:55The home team makes the call?
05:56I think, but Major League Baseball, I think, has to kind of consider, I don't really know
06:02how that works, but I feel as if, just looking at the weather tomorrow, they're going
06:06to try to move up first pitch.
06:07And they should.
06:08But, like, that makes the most sense, because it's going to be relatively clear in the morning
06:12and early afternoon, but at 5 o'clock, it's going to pour.
06:15The way these summer storms work, mornings are your best chance.
06:19Because the later in the day...
06:20When it comes in the evening, it's normally going to be some hail.
06:24That cool and that warm mix, it's going to be a thunderstorm, brother.
06:27And it's one thing to ask these boys to play in rain, but you can't do it with lightning.
06:31The left fielder for the Mets is a local kid.
06:34Yeah, dude, went to Gonzaga.
06:35Yeah.
06:35Had a hell of a catch lesson.
06:36With my man Ludwig's son.
06:39Did he make a mistake?
06:41On the inside the park?
06:43Just asking the question.
06:45I don't want to knock the brother.
06:48The man.
06:48Whoever.
06:49I don't think so.
06:51Okay.
06:51Well, good.
06:52Will the local kid keep doing anything?
06:54We're going to cheer for you, hell, with the Mets.
06:56I think he was just trying to make a play.
06:58Yeah, we were actually just discussing that, me and White Brian, because I was like,
07:03isn't it an error?
07:04Because even though he tried to make a spectacular catch, didn't he hit his glove and bounce off?
07:09And he was like, nah, because the catch was too hard.
07:11Nah, man.
07:12I don't think it was an error.
07:13It should be.
07:14In football, if you dive and you hit it, they call it a damn miscatch.
07:18How would you be?
07:19Because if a ball gets drilled to you, and you drop it, it's a heat.
07:22If I don't think the damn ball is going to, I can't catch it.
07:25I'm not going to put my glove up there.
07:27All right.
07:27Tomorrow's weather.
07:28And I'm going to be honest with you, and this won't be a surprise.
07:31Stallion 1's first pitch moved up, so he can get to Dewey that much faster.
07:35That's all this is about.
07:37I'm reading the Thursday.
07:38Why would you rush to drink?
07:39The most is with dudes.
07:41The Thursday weather report.
07:43Showers and thunderstorms before 4 o'clock.
07:46Then showers likely, and possibly a thunderstorm between 4 and 5.
07:49Then a chance of showers and thunderstorms after 5.
07:53High near 68.
07:55I don't know that there's a time to move that up or back.
07:57And it's getaway day for both teams.
07:59Move it up to 11.
08:00Move it up to 9 a.m.
08:02Yeah.
08:03Then we'd be on the back end.
08:05Move it up to 11.
08:07Look, I know what I'm...
08:0811.
08:0911.30 first pitch.
08:1111 to about 1.30.
08:1211.30, you know, and you got the pre-game and the post-game.
08:15Hell, sipping by at 4.
08:19Let's look right now.
08:21Considering how bad traffic was for us.
08:23We're all driving to Dewey Beach tomorrow.
08:25We'll be at Starboard Friday for the show.
08:26Come hang out.
08:27The junk starts 6 a.m. at Starboard.
08:29That's right.
08:296 a.m. at Starboard.
08:32Some people might have just left.
08:33Early shout-out to the people that are going to be there to watch the junk show get started.
08:39I'm not sure I'm going to want to see those people when our show starts at 10 a.m.
08:43That is a jump start to your Memorial Day weekend.
08:46Hell, yeah.
08:47Now, if we left right now, my phone says two and a half hours.
08:50I'm good with that.
08:51Thursday might get a little chunkier.
08:53It won't be like that on Thursday.
08:54No, it might get a little chunkier.
08:56So we might have to find some stop-off spots.
