00:00Ozzy, are you concerned about the slow month of August for Murakami?
00:05Yes.
00:06You know what I mean?
00:08August is now, we're going to September almost the same way.
00:11Yes, I have because it seems like right now I have no idea at the plate.
00:18You know what I mean?
00:18He's taking pitch in the middle of the plate, the fastball,
00:21swinging pitch at a strike zone, it's a breaking ball.
00:24Right now I think he's guessing.
00:26He's guessing.
00:27I don't know him very well, that way to say exactly what he's doing wrong.
00:31I think he's guessing the wrong pitch.
00:34He's not seeing the ball at all.
00:35You see all the swing.
00:37He just swing like hopefully can hit it.
00:40And I know being that place before, it feels like very, very empty feeling
00:48about what I should do, what I can do.
00:51I know he's working on it, but I think right now he's not seeing the ball well.
00:54He's just freelancing and he's hopefully to get a hit right now.
00:58I think they had to talk to us and say, listen, you know what?
01:03Don't try to hit the home runs.
01:05Don't try to hit the home run.
01:06Try to hit the ball in the middle of the field.
01:08And hopefully the swing and go back to it was normal.
01:14Obviously, they have a different way to work out.
01:16They have a different way to swing the ball.
01:17They have a different idea about hitting compared with the United States.
01:23You exactly, you know what to do.
01:25But yes, I do consider.
01:25I talk about last night, they should put him down like seven.
01:30You know, move him down a little bit for a couple of days to see how that feels.
01:34Because when you're about in second, you're in the middle.
01:36You're in the middle, the accident.
01:38But when you're about in second, you strike out that much time.
01:41You kill a lot of rallies.
01:42I think you put the hand down a little bit just for a couple of days to see how he
01:45feel.
01:46To his swing coming back, then you move up him to about in second.
01:49I think that's the way the solution, I think, right now, to help this ball club to live in better.
01:54Because this ball club, you'll be honest with you, he had a couple of innings.
01:59Good innings.
02:00That's it.
02:00You know what I mean?
02:01They now put a few innings together offensively.
02:08You know what I mean?
02:08Last couple of days, Montgomery had a big, big night.
02:11And I think he's going to be better in September because the way he's approached at the plate.
02:16But I think they need money because it's a big piece for the white side.
