Fore speech. Um, so I want to start with you, Miggy. You’re like the unsung hero, right? But you know how much everybody believes in you in that in that clubhouse and in that in that in this organization. And so for you like to stay ready, bro, you didn’t play you didn’t play for like damn near like a month, bro. And for you to stay ready, like how long did it take for you to really kind of get into the kind of a rhythm? Because not playing for a month is a long time. And like from our perspective, it’s like you came in in game six, you don’t have time to get in the rhythm. Yeah. Well, to be honest with you, um I don’t know if you remember that conversation that we had coming out of the shower um a couple days before I start. Oh, yeah, we did. Yeah, you did. Oh, cuz I asked you. I checked on you. I said, “How you doing?” Moo. You check on me um three or four days before that happened. And it was crazy because uh I wasn’t feeling that great at that moment. You know, if you asked me to play that day, I probably wasn’t going to be as locked in or good as I was in game six. And that’s what I I attribute everything that I did to to you guys and to my teammates and to the guys who were maybe on the roster in that moment. and and seeing the energy of everybody kind of like fighting for the same thing kept me motivated to say, you know what, I I might get an opportunity here and I need to be ready for the boys because uh I think my answer was I I can be I can be negative about what happening right now. I need to stay positive for the boys because we’ve been doing this for so long and it will be really selfish for me not to be ready if my name is called and then I’m not ready to go and play. Then game six, like you say, I got the chance to play. Doc gave me a good couple days in advance. And even though that doesn’t mean anything when you you haven’t get a bat or anything like that, I felt like I was ready mentally and I wanted to help and I wanted to contribute like everybody else doing. And I think one of the things from our team that we can take forever is like do your part. You know, it doesn’t matter what you’re doing, you need to do your part. And I think that’s what kept me kind of like ready to go and when I step up on second base I say do my part and I need to just catch my ground balls, make the plays and see what the results going to bring, you know. Mhm. You did it. I mean, shoot it and the ball will find you cuz like there was me a couple plays. You had a bare hand that was kind of that was nasty. Uh we turned a double play. I was going to say a couple double plays. Couple double plays. Um, and then the last that last pick was like poetry, bro. It was poetry. KK threw it and you were kind of get you got to the bag a little late and bro that I don’t know how you caught that and stayed on the base. It was nasty, bro. I I I just feel like it’s it’s god-given. You know, sometimes you talk to me about, bro, your hands are nasty or whatever you do is on the field. I can’t really explain or or teach you how to do that. It’s something that I really do. Like same thing with you, athleticism and playing baseball and hitting these balls and and making this plays and jump throws when you haven’t played shortstop in a long time and you just make a a jump throw from the hole is something that you don’t really teach. I just feel like that’s something that I mean when you’re competing and you want to win and you want it as bad, I feel like it just happened and your natural abilities come out. So shout out to you, man. Thank you. I mean obviously everybody thanks you but it was just really dope to see. All right. So, uh, I’m just gonna go in order with how guys kind of got here. So, Blake, um, you know, I thought it was hilarious that we played against each other our whole careers. I think I have the most at bats in my career off a pitcher. I think it’s you. Got to be. I’m happy to say we’re on the same side. Finally, we’re on the back field. 18 years old, man. I’m up here. This dude, oh gosh, I’ve been facing him for that long. And so, um, now we’re on join forces in our first year together. We uh we win a World Series, bro. So, bro, you were rolling like tell me like that run that you were going like in the change up. Tell tell me like what how what how you just got rolling like that. It was It’s not out of left field either. Like you once you’ve got two Sai Young, so like I’ve seen it. I’ve been on the hitting side of it, but now being on the on the same side like how do you do that, bro? Yeah, it’s just uh it’s really just a mindset. Um cuz you have one good start, you figure it out and you start piecing it together and then you just lock like I mean you know like when you’re hitting you just lock in and start telling yourself like you’re the best in the world like prove it, prove it. just keep challenging yourself and then the games just they just start stacking up and then yeah the whole like you just keep that that same approach same mindset attack attack and um and it’s able to happen and and you just go you take off and usually I’m able to do it and then you’re doing it here and he’s like being in LA how how was that doing it like in LA like in this in this I like it I like it more in LA cuz it’s more you know when you do bad people talk talk more when you do good they talk more. So, it it’s both sides of it. But that’s what I wanted. Yeah. It seemed like you loved it, bro. Like you seem like you made for LA, dog. I like it. Yeah. I like the I like when people talk too. I like that. Yeah. I like that. All right, guys. I want to I want to talk to everybody about like that 18 inning game. From my perspective, it I was like, “Oh my gosh, it’s going to take a homer.” But like what what did y’all see anything else? because I thought it was one of the most boring 18 inning games that I’ve ever been a part of. Lot in the playoffs. A lot of fly balls. It was just fly balls, guys trying to hit homers. But that’s the beauty of it. You got two teams, two pitching staffs, and everybody Did you say it was boring? Yeah. Like as far as as far as like we didn’t have any action. Like it was just homers. But I loved it. But I’m like, damn. We didn’t have any like I feel like the 11th inning game was way more action-packed in a tighter tighter one. You know what I’m saying? No, I mean nothing’s going to top that one. No, like that one. But I think that was game seven too. Yeah, maybe game. Maybe that’s 18 inning game though. It was like up until the ninth I’m talking about extra innings. But I mean if you could have scored a run earlier, we’re we’re so old. Our team’s so old. We were so tired the next two. You know what I mean? That’s what it felt like. He was like, “Oh my gosh.” We needed one early there. We were dragging the last two. But Freddy Freddy, he has a knack for just hitting homers in those big situations. He was just tired, man. He wanted to go home and it worked. He wanted to go home. He tried like three different times. Yeah. Um and and and 22 from like from your perspective, I want to hear a little bit about you from from you. Like how was that one of the best series that you’ve ever been a part of? Like one to one to seven? Yeah, I mean I’ve been I’ve been one other seven game World Series and we lost that one. So this one is well there’s an astric on that one, but we we we won this one and so this one was unbelievable, man. Like what was it about them that made it hard? Cuz like I’m not a pitcher so I don’t know, but I want to hear from a pitching perspective like what was it about it about them that made it so hard to cuz there they’re they’re getting they’re getting 10 hits a game. They got they got some guys hot like Clement was just hot. It didn’t matter what you threw that guy. And then Vlatty was hot and he’s he’s also a superstar. So, you got that going. And then, you know, then they have guys like Alejandro Kirk, you know, who just like battles and grinds. He’s a catcher. He knows what’s coming. He fouls off pitches. Uh Barger was hot. He had six multi-hit games. Yeah, man. So, it’s just like Bo on one leg was Yeah, couple hits a game. Oh my gosh. Yeah, their offense and Homery hit was like, oh my gosh, their offense was clicking, man. one through one through nine basically there. So when you when you’re when you’re facing a lineup like that as a pitcher, like what do you do? Just try not to give up damage or is it like what do you Well, I mean Blake had to start again so he can answer that better than me. But yeah, I mean I just kept learning through like watching the games. I was like, “Okay, if you double up, they kind of like get an idea on that.” I just felt like they like my first two starts, I just felt like they were on everything. Like you couldn’t really fool them. And I I didn’t feel that way. Hard. It’s hard calling pitches like that. Yeah. I don’t know how many times I looked over at Mark in the dugout like, “Hey, I don’t know what to do. Just give me something like give me a little confidence in some pitch that I can give a pitcher.” Like that happened so many times during that series. They had a magic wand. It was just like it was 02 and three balls below the zone. It was just finding finding space and it was always a hit. Always. It was always a hit if I’m being honest. by we played a lot of playoff series that this is one that stood out like like you guys in 18. Not many teams that we play against the like in like in the playoffs have like a teamwide approach and it seemed like that team they were on a team approach and that to me that was a big difference compared to some of the other teams we played. And I was looking and I was I was uh you know you hear brother Schneider was like Dave verse Goliath and all other stuff and I definitely understand that and then I look back and I’m like well they really they hit better than us cuz you know last year the Padres’s they were like we felt like they were like a they were a better team but we just we won like we played played a better series XYZ. This team I’m like well yeah they did get hot but the rest of it is like I’m thinking about our team. We just played like this the whole time. We never really got up and we never got down. We just played like this the whole time. We won a World Series and we didn’t play good at all throughout the playoffs. We did not play good and we won a World Series like this. That’s how nasty we were. Mhm. And that’s that’s that’s something for us to be proud of, dog. Starters are pretty good. Starters are pretty good. You guys got starters are pretty good. You the Yoshi. What Yoshi did was unbelievable. That was that was so I’ll never forget that. Never. He went 0 zero days rest. Not I mean obviously the World Series, but even like all the other series we had. Oh yeah. I mean every every game he pitched. It’s not even that he went on zero days rest. He was on zero days rest and looked the same as if he had six. His first pitch was 92 m splitter. Oh my gosh. Yeah. I’m like how do you do that? Wonder how he feels today. I forgot to ask him how he felt today. He said he was really sore. on the bus yesterday. He was like, “Uh, sure.” So, anyways, yeah, that that was a that was a great ride, bro. That was that was one of the most team one World Serieses or teams that I’ve been a part of where everybody literally contributed. 22. Tell me about that that moment when you came out of the bullpen and you you you got to get a a out. Were you going for a punchy or what were you going for? Just an out. Yeah, I was loose. I’d been up four times. I was down there just ready to go. 90 91 m hour slider. I was throwing gas. I was throwing gas. My slider was about as the same speed and movement as my fast ball at that point, but finally that 32 one actually went the other way. Yeah. So, he rolled over on it. So, it was good. It took me like five of them, but I got one good one and he rolled over. And have you ever had like Have you ever felt I mean, I know you have. Obviously, you’ve been in big situations, but like that was your first time coming in like that? Like, have you ever I mean, I’d come out of the pin before in the playoffs, but uh the only other one like that was 2016 uh when guys were on base when uh against the Nationals. This that was the last time like like the game was on the line with guys on base. Last time I did that. So, uh that’s a long time. I mean, that’s eight years ago. All right. Tell me about it. I know. So, yeah. On like one day rest. Yep. Yeah. But this one I was I had plenty of days and I was loose and I was got got it out. So, but yeah, man, looking back for that to be the last time I ever pitched is is awesome. Pretty cool. And you let you let you uh you gave it a nice ah I feel like Yeah. Yeah. I just had to do it. I didn’t even want to. I just had to do it. Yeah. It felt good. Hey, ask him about if he knew that we we had won the World Series. I didn’t know we won the World Series. Did you know that? What you mean? I had no idea we won the World Series. I was next. I had I was warming up and uh I saw Vlatty hit the double so I started getting going faster. I didn’t see uh Connor fall off I call him full aful every time. I know dude. I’m sorry. He bunted. I didn’t see that. And so I saw uh you know Barger’s on first with the walk and so Kirk grounds to the double play and I’m thinking okay two outs, run scores, game’s tied. We got a lefty V show up. I’m in the game. And then BTO is just looking in my face. Why are you throwing? It’s over. We won the World Series. Oh, he said, “Yeah, he’s the one telling me we won the World Series.” Did you Did you So, you looked out there to confirm that we were I looked out and I looked at him and he said, “We won the World Series.” I was like, “Oh, okay. That’s great.” You were that locked in. Good for you. I had no idea. That’s crazy. That’s super. Well, anyways, I’ve said it a thousand times. It’s been a pleasure. 22. Enjoy your retirement, brother. I will. I will. What are you going to get into? I don’t know. I don’t know. No, I mean something. I just I don’t know yet. I’m on the no plan for a little while. You hadn’t thought about it really? I’m starting two more, but I also have four kids. I got another one coming. Yeah. So, that’ll I’ll be busy. You going to be a soccer van, dog. I know. I need to look into like a sprinter van situation. Um, do you have to get your CDLs to drive that? What’s that? Uh, no. Cuz No. Freddy’s got one, right? Or they have one. But he don’t drive it though. Oh, I don’t know. I’ll look into that. Put it on my list. Make sure. You make I’ll put it on my list. You ain’t got nothing else to do. Something to do. I’ll give you something to do. You might as well become a pilot or something. I don’t have hobbies and talents like you. I can’t learn a guitar. I can’t I can’t I don’t do that. I play baseball and I take care of kids. That’s all I do. That’s all I do. I know. But if I try that, I get so frustrated I break the guitar over my knee. We got to try it one day. We’ll try. But anyways, all right. Thanks. Thank you guys for coming on. AC, I want to hear from you. Uh you get traded over and then you’re around all these guys. How was it? I mean, it’s unbelievable. Uh you never know like when you walk into the new locker room what it’s going to be like but especially when you got Hall of Famer and all stars everywhere. It’s like you don’t know how you’re going to gel or mix. But you guys were awesome and I felt right at home. Just try to do my thing. It was day what was it? Day one I had the Oculus on and Mickey road takes a picture of me. You were pitching. Look at this. He was pitching to you. I was bitching. I was pitching to you. Yeah. you know, so I was just like, “Hey, well, this is my routine and whatever.” And, you know, I can take a little ribbing and then uh you know, it’s like, “Oh, that’s that’s what he does.” And I was just able to be my own skin, you know, last but and when you were laying on the ground, bro, like did did what happened? I thought we lost. What you mean? I had the ball. I’m cuz you were running and like it looked like you were about to catch it. took a bad jump cuz Ernie Clement like took that like half swing thing and the ball looked from left field like it was going to bounce. So I figured he’s going to dump one in front another one in front of me like he did like seven times. So I half step in and then I’m like, “Oh no, this ball’s really far away from me.” So I’m running full speed and as I finally, you know, World Series on the line, I’m like, “I need to catch this. I got to run through a wall. Run through a wall.” And then I’m like, “All right, I got it.” And I’m slowing down and I’m about to pull a Willie Mays catch and out of nowhere. I got posterized. Yeah. And my first thought was Kaz came over and Randy mo you dog. And my first they already got a card. I had it. He jumped over me. Now we lost. So I’m on the ground and I hear silence. But I think it’s because my brain is protecting me from heartbreak. And we had just lost a World Series and Pas came and asked me are you okay? And I was like, “Forget about me. Did you catch it?” He goes, “Yeah.” And I was like, “Oh, yeah. Let’s go.” That’s why the smile. I was just sad. I thought we lost the World Series. Yeah. Nice. All right. Well, yeah. I uh I don’t want to keep you guys, man. Go enjoy the party. I love you guys, man. Thank you. Thank you, All right, boys. So, both of you guys hit essentially the homers that won the World Series. Muntz, your Savage right there. He’s a reverse guy. So, he’s really harder on lefties and I don’t think anybody really saw him good. It wasn’t like he’s a really good pitcher. Obviously, I’m not saying he’s any anything, but his slider was messy. I could not see it, bro. I couldn’t I was just swinging and missing and uh you come up, but you get a splitter, though. Well, I mean, the splitter and the slider did the exact same thing. one was just slower, you know, and they were spinning a little different. But, uh, you know, to me, and I said this in one of the hitters meetings, I said, I want to treat him like I’m facing a left-handed pitcher that’s just throwing down sliders. Uh, so, you know, that was my whole approach was like, okay, if I’m facing a lefty, this has got to start at me and it’s got to be up because when you usually when you face a righty and a ball starts at you, you’re you’re jumping out of the way. And, you know, the first couple times I faced him, I did jump out of the way. I was like, “Oh, I don’t know what I’m looking at right here. and he get throws a splitter. You hit a homer. What do you How do you feel like once you hit that homer? What was going through your head? Not necessarily about you, but about the game. Cuz when you hit that homer, I’m like, “Ooh, we got a chance of winning this game now.” I wasn’t sure. I’ll be honest. I mean, cuz I hit the home run and the first, you know, I’m sitting there in the box like I know I got it. So, I kind of walk out of it a little bit and I’m like, I don’t know how much emotion I should be showing right now. We’re still down by one. And I didn’t want to be like when we watching uh you know the the the dude hitting the you know the home run and they’re still down by six or whatever it was. But so I was like I don’t know how much emotion I should be showing right now. But then in the back of my head I said this at least guarantees show gets up one more time. Yeah. Which is huge. And so I was like all right we we this gives us a chance. Like it gets us closer and it gives us a chance cuz I know Shi is getting up one more time. And then um and then obviously Miggy Row hits a homer. It’s like when Miggy Row hit the homer I’m like we’re gonna win this game. We’re gonna back door and win this game. Especially because Yoshi was on the mound. You know what what’s funny is I had this feeling all game seven that we were going to come back and win that game. But I had this feeling all game six that we were going to find a way to lose that thing. You know always play. Yeah. It was you know we kept going three and out towards the end there and I was like the the crowd’s getting into us. We’re going to lose this game. Then on the flip side, game seven, I was like, “We’re going to come back.” The crowd kept getting quieter and quieter. I was like, “We’re going to find a way to win this game.” And then Smitty, you come up, bro, you hit your homer. Obviously, you’re not trying to hit a homer, but you’re trying to make something happen. But we got Bieber who shoved against us. How was you feeling that sit? Especially when you moved to hitting second, which was a huge a smart move by Doc cuz he needed someone to really hit behind show because they were walking show every single time. I mean, you come in and you you uh you doing your thing like tell me take me through like you your thought process and then you hit the home run. Yeah, I mean, you know, I honestly prepared for Bieber earlier in the game. We had talked about it, you know, in the meeting and like how I was going to kind of face him and we faced him a few days prior. Um he threw me a couple cutters, got me onto some cutters and I mean all I was thinking was just stay up the middle, you know, get him in the air, stay up the middle and just get on base and let Freddy do his thing. That’s what I was thinking. And then you clipped it. What was you? As soon as you hit it, as soon as you clipped it, what happened? Like the instant that you hit it, what was what what went through your head? I’m just hoping it’s getting far enough like Oh, you thought. I mean, how many balls we hit there that there was there was just came up not as far as we thought. Yeah. Like constantly the whole series. So I’m just like please get out. Like please, we need a run here. You know, it’s game seven. It’s it’s sick. And then it goes I’m like, you know, holy cow. Like I don’t I just You were just running gave Woody big high five. Run around waving uh the bullpen. Yeah. Come in fired up for the guys and then like you know I just hear Kik in the back. Hey, we got to get three more outs. I’m like oh yeah. Like switching gears back to how the heck are we going to get three more outs? Whatever. Yeah. How were you feeling? And you had to put the fingers down with Yosh. And that was kind of a tricky situation to get through. You got Vlad leading off and he it’s a bro you every pitch that you called in that Vladia bat that he hit the double. I’m like that’s a great pitch. Yeah. And then he dotted a fast ball in. He kept taking it too. So I didn’t really have an idea where he was looking. Dude, I don’t think anybody knew. Nobody knew. He was bobbing every time. Every single time we would What he did that whole series was so impressive. Sticking to his approach, you know, every every and then he has to double on the fast and like jam. What else would you What else could you have thrown? Maybe a splitter, but like you don’t want to walk him there. No, you don’t want to walk his curve. Like honestly, I thought we going curveball right there. Um just to He hadn’t seen it yet at that bat. No, not that you had gotten him off. He was kind of zooing the curveball. Um, so I didn’t want to like throw something uncompetitive. You know, we had jammed a few times on some heaters. He just happened to pull it this time instead of hitting the center, which is crazy. How did how, but whatever. Does didn’t matter. So then boom, boom, boom. You’re navigating through the situation. Then you you get O2. Once we got to O2 to Kirk, because anytime before two strikes with Kirk, I’m not expecting anything on the ground. I’m expecting him to hit it fair especially cuz he doesn’t really swing and miss much. Then you got the O2. I’m like I mean I’m going for a punch out right there. Uh okay. You’re going out. We may get a chance to get a double play. Yeah, cuz I didn’t think he was going to punch out. No, I think he was going to punch out. Punch out is really that’s the mindset right there is punch. You don’t want him moving this ball something happening. You want punch out, two outs, get the next guy. That’s what you’re thinking. Okay. And then he hits it right to you. And then he hits the hits the ground ball. I mean, I thought when it got to O2, from my thought, I was like, he may be able to hit a ground ball now, but I don’t know. I thought at no point was he punching out first and third Alejandro Kirk. But hey, you you know, you do your thing. All right. So, y’all go ahead and do your thing, man.
