00:00All right, boys, fair or foul, Ronald Acuna Jr. is the most exciting player in baseball.
00:07Well, I'll take the hate first. It's foul.
00:11It's not anything to do with Ronnie.
00:17It's about Shohei Ohtani.
00:19He is absolutely the most exciting player.
00:22There's not many eras, I mean, there's not many players in baseball that have ever been what Shohei is.
00:29I mean, Babe Ruth is about the only one I can really think of.
00:31But even he tops that because Shohei essentially could win 20 games, hit 40 home runs, and still 40 bases.
00:45That's unheard of.
00:47And you can't tell me that any – and I love Ronald Acuna Jr.,
00:50but there's nothing that Ronnie does that Shohei doesn't do.
00:54Yeah, my gut feeling when she asked this question going into the break
00:58was no, but I couldn't decide why, right?
01:03And I think that for me, at least defensively, what we've seen over the last few weeks is not great.
01:07And I think of – when I think of exciting, I think of –
01:11I actually don't think of like a Shohei Ohtani.
01:13To me, exciting is like Andrew Jones, you know what I mean?
01:16Catch the ball, crash into the wall, things like that.
01:19So I would have veered towards somebody like a Bobby Witt or somebody along those lines,
01:24but I think Bo's right, Shohei kind of belongs in that category too.
01:28I think for me, exciting, and maybe I'm an outlier, I enjoy dominant pitchers.
01:34I love watching guys just mow through, you know, a lineup where they just can't do anything to them.
01:40And then the fact that the guy can flip over and come up to bat and you're like,
01:44he's legitimately the best hitter on the team.
01:48Like it's – that's – you know, it was fun when Max Freed would get a game-winning hit
01:52or Tom Glavin, right?
01:54But this guy is like literally the best hitter on the roster in L.A.
01:59Ronald has a cannon, man.
02:01Remember that throw last season?
02:03Yeah.
02:04Yeah, what's up?
02:04He made one of the day.
02:05You've got to catch it, though, before he can throw it.
02:06He made one of the day.
02:07He's been doing a very good job of catching it lately.
02:09Again, I had to do some introspection.
02:10He was like, uh-uh, no, no, no, you're not going to get me.
02:13I had to do some introspection on it to kind of check myself and say,
02:17all right, well, then who is it?
02:18You know, don't just point out that he's not.
02:19So it is what it is.
02:21Is there a problem, Bo?
02:22No.
02:23No, I just – nope, nope, not going to do it.
02:25All right, fair or foul, the crust is the best part of the pizza.
02:29Foul.
02:30I'm sorry, what?
02:30That's foul.
02:32That's absolutely nuts.
02:33I don't – I'm afraid that I'm going to get like –
02:36If I'm going to – I'm about to say – no.
02:38I mean –
02:39Allie, man.
02:39No way.
02:40Not even close.
02:41What on earth?
02:41Do you believe this?
02:42I do.
02:43No, what?
02:44Stop it, dude.
02:45Allie, no way.
02:45Regular crust, like not stuffed crust?
02:47Crust.
02:48Guys, I'm starting to get nervous, man.
02:50I'm starting to think we've got like a –
02:52Do you think the crust on a piece of bread is the best part of a sandwich?
02:55Yeah, do you eat the –
02:56That's different.
02:56Do you eat the hard part of the pie, too?
02:58I mean, like, what are we talking about?
02:59The crust?
03:00Yeah.
03:00Yes.
03:01So that part's better than the pie?
03:02No.
03:03Okay.
03:03We're not talking about dessert pie.
03:05We're talking about a pizza pie.
03:07It's the same thing.
03:08No.
03:09It's the same thing.
03:09Allie, okay, let me ask you this.
03:11When's the last time you've had a non-vegan pizza?
03:17I mean, at least 10 years.
03:18What is that?
03:19Yeah, I don't know.
03:19That matters.
03:20It doesn't matter.
03:23But if I'm saying it, Dylan, I feel like –
03:26I have always felt this way.
03:28Can I ask you a question?
03:29Do you like breadsticks?
03:30Love them.
03:31See, I like breadsticks, but I don't like the crust.
03:34I have a thing with marinara.
03:35Too much marinara is –
03:37Dude, my wife is like this.
03:39She's done with marinara.
03:41She has called it a career on marinara.
03:43You know the only time I eat the crust is when they get that garlic sauce?
03:48Oh, okay.
03:49Oh, man.
03:49Like from –
03:50Yeah.
03:50Apparently, they come out with a bottle of that now.
03:52You can buy it.
03:53Or if you have extra marinara sauce, you dip the crust in the marinara, too.
03:56Now, ew.
03:57That's goaded.
03:57No.
03:58Well, that's like – that's a breadstick.
04:01Yeah, basically.
04:01At that point.
04:02Basically.
04:03Allie, you're wild, dude.
04:04I don't like –
04:04You're wild.
04:05It's too hard.
04:06I'm a happy girl.
04:07All right.
04:08Well, I know what I'm getting Allie for her next birthday.
04:09I'm just going to bring her a loaf of bread.
04:12I'm like Oprah.
04:13I love bread.
04:15Fair or foul, Bajon Robinson will score the first touchdown of the season for the Falcons.
04:21I'd say it's fair.
04:22You know who scored the last – the first touchdown last year?
04:25Bajon.
04:26Yeah.
04:26I think it's fair.
04:27You know what?
04:28I'm going to say – I'm going to go Drake.
04:30I don't know why.
04:31Just to be different.
04:31Just to throw – just sometimes it's fun to have other –
04:34Getting crazy.
04:35Until I'm proven that Bajon's not going to have the receiving numbers this year that he did last year,
04:40I would have to go with Bajon.
04:41I'll make my guess right –
04:42If he teaches –
04:42Yeah.
04:43Sorry.
04:43I'm making my guess right now.
04:44I'm going to actually go with Jahan Dotson.
04:46Of course you would.
04:47Wow.
04:47Dang it.
04:48I didn't even think about the correlation there.
04:51I've never beaten the allegations.
04:53When do you think the last time Jahan Dotson ate a vegan pizza?
04:56See, it doesn't matter.
04:57Probably never.
04:58When's the last time he scored a touchdown?
04:59Oh, that's even better.
05:00Last year, I think.
05:01I think he had one.
05:02I'll check my notes.
05:02One or two.
05:03Fair or foul, a no-hitter is more impressive than hitting for the cycle.
05:08And I will say, these are normally subjective.
05:10This one's not.
05:11I got stats.
05:14To me, it's the cycle.
05:17But I'm like, well, I enjoy the no-hitter.
05:19I enjoy the perfect game and everything.
05:20I just think that hitting for the cycle is just – it feels like it never happens.
05:24Yeah.
05:24It doesn't.
05:25It feels like it's that once in a five or ten year kind of thing.
05:29I'm sure you have the stats to back it up.
05:31That's what it feels like.
05:32Jahan Dotson scored a touchdown last year, by the way.
05:34It's a cycle.
05:35Ding.
05:35It's a cycle.
05:36Hitting for the cycle is pretty hard.
05:40It's unique.
05:41That's why they tell you the last time somebody did it and so long.
05:45Of course, then again, I don't know.
05:46I think the Braves' last no-hitter was Kent Merker in the combined no-hitter back in, what, 93, I
05:51believe.
05:52There have been 325 no-hitters.
05:56There have been 349 players that have hit for the cycle.
06:02That is –
06:03Wow.
06:04Wow.
06:04You're wrong.
06:07You're both wrong.
06:08Slam the door on you right there.
06:09No, no, no.
06:10Read the stat again.
06:11Read the stat again.
06:12We took up for you with Dylan, and now you're just trying to make us feel stupid.
06:16It's a dark place.
06:16I'm telling you.
06:17325 no-hitters.
06:19Only.
06:20Okay.
06:20There are only 349 players that have hit for the cycle.
06:24So there's less no-hitters, meaning that it's harder.
06:26Yeah, but it's really close.
06:28Sample size is very close.
06:30Is there anybody that's hit for the cycle twice?
06:33That's not what we're talking about.
06:35Hey, is there anybody that's ever thrown a no-hitter and hit for the cycle?
06:39The way you're wearing it, it's throwing me off.
06:40Because you know what?
06:41That's why Shohei Itani is more exciting than Acuna, because he could do that.
06:44I'm going to figure it out during the commercial break.
06:46That would be crazy.
06:46I'm going to figure out what you're saying is throwing me off.
06:48I'm going to figure it out in a second.
06:49Something you're saying is not right.
06:51It's throwing me off.
06:52What?
06:53She's saying there's been no – like, how many pitchers threw for a no-hitter?
06:57Well, there are 325 no-hitter games.
06:59Okay, but some of those pitchers threw multiple no-hitters.
07:01This is Apple and the origin.
07:0210 through 7.
07:03That's what I'm saying.
07:04That's what I'm saying.
07:04So it's even crazier than that.
07:07I'm telling you, Allie.
07:08But you're proving her point, though.
07:10I know, but I'm saying something about the way she's saying it's throwing me off.
07:12I'm confused on what you're getting at.
07:14He just doesn't want to be wrong.
07:15Yeah.
07:16It's okay.
07:17I'm fully comfortable.
07:19If you told me that I could go to the ballpark tonight and you're going to guarantee one or the
07:22other happens,
07:23I'm picking the cycle.
07:24Yeah?
07:25Yep.
07:25No, I'd rather see a no-hitter.
07:27Yeah, I would rather see a no-hitter.
07:28Again, I'm a masochist, I guess.
07:32I enjoy defensive stuff.
07:34But there's a whole atmosphere about it.
07:36Like, don't talk about it.
07:37Don't talk.
07:37Yeah.
07:38There's a whole thing happening with that.
07:39My dad still has a ticket stub from his first ever baseball game.
07:42It was at Wrigley Field in like 1970, I want to say.
07:46And the pitcher threw a no-hitter.
07:48He was like, I didn't even know what was going on.
07:50I just knew I was with my uncle and I was standing on a chair and everybody was losing their
07:53mind.
07:54And I think he was like 80.
07:56It might have been like, he was born in 61.
07:58So maybe it was like 69.
07:59But yeah, pitcher threw a no-hitter.
08:00And it was like, they've only been like two the Cubs have had in the last 50 years.
08:04That was one of them.
08:06Sounds like it's pretty rare.
