00:00You and I talked at the beginning of the year.
00:02Dwayne, we didn't know what this thing was going to look like.
00:06And all of a sudden, they started gathering steam.
00:09They kept going month after month.
00:12Cam and Arrow was getting protection in the lineup.
00:15I mean, are you surprised where they are now heading into this World Series?
00:20Well, I'll tell you, you're right about, you know, that first week or so of the season.
00:25In fact, they went to Milwaukee, lost two out of three up there.
00:29But I'll tell you what, it was kind of a nice little preview.
00:31And you're right.
00:32We didn't know how good this team may be.
00:36But we saw two teams there that were really interesting teams.
00:43And I'll tell you, once the Rays hit their stride, you know, a handful of games into the season,
00:50you could start to see what they may have here.
00:54You never know what's going to happen with a club.
00:57But I think, you know, we have hindsight now, which is always 2020.
01:05But I think this turns out to be a great matchup.
01:09And we saw some of it up there in Milwaukee, you know, early in the year.
01:16This is baseball at its best, I think.
01:19And I think we have every right to anticipate a fun World Series.
01:25You know, there are two teams that there's some pop in their lineup.
01:30But, you know, they'll seal a base.
01:33They'll get on base.
01:34They'll do all those things.
01:35They'll pitch the ball.
01:37They match up.
01:38The bullpen situation has been really kind of fun to watch, especially with the Rays,
01:44because they do so much matching up.
01:47So I think this is a throwback to a multifaceted roster on two teams that have a lot of talent
01:56and are very excitable.
