Hour 1 – Thunder Win Game 5, College World Series No-Hitter

Published Jun 17, 2025, 4:23 PM

Dan thinks Jalen Williams is a perfect Robin to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s Batman as the Oklahoma City Thunder take a 3-2 lead in the NBA finals on the strength of his 40-point effort. Plus, Dan and the Danettes wonder if it broke the unwritten rules of baseball when Murray State’s Dom Decker boke up Arkansas P Gage Wood’s perfect game by being hit by a pitch he could have easily avoided.

You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio.

It's our one on this Tuesday, Dan and the Dan Eins Dan Patrick Show. The Cup is in the house, not this house in Florida. Sunrise? Will it be sunset for the Oilers? Nice oilers at the Panthers coming up tonight game six thunder over the Pacers. A lot to discuss with that. We'll talk to the US Open Champ JJ Spawn a little bit later on as well.

Every Batman needs a Robin, Michael led Scotti, Lebron had Wade, Jason Tatum, Jalen Brown, Shaq and Kobe. You can go down through history and it feels like there was a batman and there was a Robin. Ok See already has their batman and the MVP and Shay Gilgis Alexander, and last night it became really clear to the well probably the NBA population watching this OKAC team, probably for the first time, Jalen Williams is a sidekick of sorts, but he's his star in his own right. He was third team All NBA. He went to Santa Clara, He had scholarship offers to Hofstra Santa Clara, one other school in there and that's it. He had forty points last night, biggest game of his young career. So you got Shay Gilgess who's twenty five, Williams, who's twenty three, and I'm afraid of the bright lights last night he was the best player on the floor for a good portion of that game. Now, I know we get caught up in big names, and rightfully so if you start to look at micheln Scotting Lebron and Kyrie, Kevin Durant and Steph Curry, the performance last night between Shay Gilgis, Alexander and Jalen Williams is one of the best in the last fifty years. So hear me out on this. They combined to score or assist on one hundred and three points. That's the most by a duo in an NBA Finals game in the last five decades. The stat of the Day brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of The Dan Patrick Show. But eight minutes and thirty seconds to go, it's a two point game. Aliburton is banged up. He didn't score a basket, he had four points. He couldn't even get shots up. And then you started to wonder, and I wondered at halftime would he even play in the second half? Because you can live to play another game. You have another game back in Indiana. You're guaranteed that no matter what happened last night. That's what I didn't understand with Rick Carlile, and we can talk about how great a coach he is. I did not agree with that, but I'd like to know more, and maybe more will come out because the next game is on Thursday. The relationship that the coach has with his star player. Did the star player want to come out? Does the coach say to him, I want you to come out because you don't want to take out your best player or one of your best players. But he was hurting you. And TJ McConnell was wonderful when he came in in the third quarter. He actually took over. Here is Rick Carlyle talking about Tyrese Haliburton.

He's not one hundred percent. It's pretty clear. I don't think he's gonna miss the next game. And you know, we were concerned at halftime, and uh, he insisted on playing, and I thought, I thought he made a lot of really good things happened in the second half. But he's he's not He's not one hundred percent, you know, and there's a lot of guys in the series that aren't.

Yeah, but this was really pronounced. You could see that he was struggling. But here's Haliburton talking about deciding to play.

I mean the NBA Finals.

It's the finals, man. I've worked my whole life to be here, and I want to be out there to compete, you know, on my teammates. Anyway I can. You know, I was not great tonight by any means, but you know, it's not really a thought of mine to to not play here. You know, if I if I can, uh, you know, walk, then I want to play, so you know they understand that, and uh, you know is what it is, and uh, you know, gotta be ready to go for game six.

You can be hurt and you can be injured. If you're injured, then you shouldn't play. If he's just banged up a little bit, then okay. I understand he wants to go out there, but at some point you have to realize they're going to take advantage of him being out there. And the fact that TJ McConnell was playing so well kind of exacerbated that. I didn't want Haliburton out there, and I want him to be great in game six. I don't want him to be average in game five and then average in Game six. I would have shut him down at halftime, said it at the time, don't play him now. They had a big lead. They did cut that lead. Then it's a two point game with eight and a half to go. But he was not a factor and nobody was able to stop Jalen Williams or Shay Gilgess. I mean Gilgers had an oh by the Way game when he had thirty two and ten assists, like an OH by the Way game thirty one and ten oh, by the way, talk about efficient, talk about where that He's one of those players where you go he had how many certain guys you go, wait, he only had that many. He's one of those guys where you go, wait, you had that many and it's all two pointers. Him and Williams, like this is a box score out of the nineties where you got a couple of three pointers and that's it. They're just scoring. But Indiana still has another game back at home on Thursday night, and I hope we get to see the best of Halliburton because he has had an incredible playoff run, one that will remember for a long long time, and you could put him up there with clutch shooters, clutch players. But last night I needed to help him help himself and not play the second half of the game. Now you might be saying, all right, we're going to lose this game, but you were only down two with eight and a half to go, and that's where you have to rely on your other players. Haliburton wasn't able to, and that's where you ask your team to step up. And they made it interesting and then all of a sudden, a minute and a half to play, and then all the starters came out. I was like, okay, yeah, Marvin.

If there's a team that would do something like that where hey, Tyrese, you take a backseat, will handle this, it's the Pacers because you have a bunch of those guys that are willing to step up in those moments. A Lah and them hart A, TJ. McConnell, May Smith, those guys will they would be ready to step up.

Yeah, ob top And I mean they do have players, but okay, okay, see play defense. Everybody plays defense. It's remarkable. I mean even SGA plays defense. But like you have to that. That's and lou Dort doesn't care Hartenstein doesn't care about They don't care about offense. Now you want me to choot a three, Dort can do that. But to be able to have a team that understands how that team works sometimes that's the biggest hurdle because everybody wants to be a star. And if I would have said to you prior to letting you know that Jalen Williams was, you know, third team all in B you never would have thought that. Yeah, Marvin, he's kind of got.

A Chris Middleton feel to him, where it's like Okay, man, this guy is so good. But if you're not a hardcore NBA fan, you have no idea who this is?

Third team o NBA. Now, they might reward OKAC because you have sixty eight wins. Okay sga, Well, he's not doing it alone. And then sometimes you'll single out somebody else on the team. Jalen Williams showed you last night. Hey I'm good. Huh, I'm only twenty three years of age. Yeah, Paul.

I saw some people complaining on social media about the refs not calling more fouls against OKC. But it feels like Okac is that old. Remember the Seattle Seahawks defense foul on every possession, you know, rough people up on every possession. You can't call them all, and it's working so far.

So the thunderbeat the Pacers one twenty to one oh nine. You got hockey coming up tonight, the Oilers at the Panthers. Panthers a chance to go back to back. Seaton Poll question, which series would you rather go? Seven games? NBA? N HL? I think if I knew that we were going to have Edmonton win, then I would love for it to go seven. Yeah, I knew who the winner was definitely so yeah, Okay, see Indiana, if you said we got a game seven, it doesn't matter who wins. I'm fine with that. But with hockey, if if Edmonton had a chance to bring the Cup back to Canada, that'd be pretty special. It's just Florida. They knew how to win. Yash And by the way, Dylan, our resident gambler, said that the over under. I think they've gone over with goals scored every single game. I think it's six and a half goals coming up tonight, which means it's going to go over again. To go over, that's what Dylan goes. That means it's going to go under, right, I go, I have no idea. You gamble, I don't. Yes, yes, I thought you were.

Supposed to bet against trends as a gambler because trends don't last.

But if it's lasted five games.

Then you're I think an analytics person would tell you it's has to even out because of and you'd bet against it.

I think what other pole questions you have seenen?

Uh?

Well, I kind of wanted to stick with hockey a little bit, but this might be over our skates, if you know what.

I mean.

See what I said there? Yeah, I did. Unfortunately Connor McDavid, Oh no, did I just get gone? No, it was that was a polite gong. That's crazy. I've been accused of premature gonging before.

I feel I'm going to appeal that premature gonging.

Okay, I don't know that that was gong work, you know, I was just seeing if it was hooked up, ready to go, ready to go, anticipating gong. Yes, the guy next to you is going to get gong today, guaranteed. Yeah, that makes sense, that makes sense. But you did lokate JJ spawn for the show, so you're already you're you're one up. It's plus one for you too.

Does that distance yourself from the gong a little perfect?

A little bit? Yeah, a little bit? All right? What else do you have? S uh?

You know what?

Let me jump ahead to one that Todd has so I could get a gong in here real.

Quick, okay, make it.

Todd is very upset about this, well not maybe not quite very upset, but it's his lead story for sure. Making no attempt to get to avoid getting hit by a pitch to ruin an opponent's perfect game is dot dot dot.

Yeah, Gauge Wood, nice name. Arkansas threw a no hitter, missed out on a perfect game as he hit a batter, and then Fritzi was all upset that the batter didn't get out of the way. I thought one batter didn't get out of the way, but they called him out. But the other one just got hit by the pitch. Todd.

Yeah, but in the eighth inning, the one that lost the perfect game was the hit by pitch of the foot and the guy kind of just stood there like a statue. And I know the ball dipped in and it kind of curved, and maybe he didn't see it coming in.

I guess you want to get on base any way you can. It's the World Series and all that.

But I've seen people get out of the way all the time. I had a problem, but he didn't make any effort to move his foot a little bit. That's the way you're gonna get on base and ruin some guys.

Yes, Paul, So, the Murray State Racers batter who is in an elimination game in a college World Series that his team has never been to before and the eighth inning, should not do everything he can to get on base.

I would think in a situation like that, it would be almost instinctual if a ball's coming out of you. I know it's not coming out of his head or anything, but if the ball looks like it's about to hit you, instinctually you kind of dance out of the way a little bit. He just stayed perfectly still watching the ball hit his foot, and he was perfect high, happy to.

Ruin his perfect game and take his base.

Okay, I didn't love I know of all the things that happened. Otani took the mound last night, you got a hockey tonight. Spawn is going to be on the show. Okay, see on the verge of winning a title for the first time, Taj like, I can't believe. Did you see that hitter? He didn't even get out.

Of the way.

So Tony went five innings and struck out twelve and gave up one hit, And then I'd be like.

Wow, Tony, the things that bother you, Yes, this is starting to bother me. This is the last situation where you should help out a pitcher in a perfect game. This is the opposite of a regular season game where you wouldn't do anything to get on base.

During a perfect game.

I'm just thinking, like, of all the unwritten rules in baseball, that to me would be in that group, standing perfectly still as a ball which was not thrown particularly hard, dips into your toe and you're like, oh man, there goes the perfect air.

It was a wild curve ball, though maybe the hitter was fooled a little bit.

Look like he had amplet I'm one person. I'm not saying everyone should.

I know you're one person, but you speak for like fifteen I'm.

Thinking I was personally bothered by it. That says.

I mean, I'm not trying to convince everyone else that that's a long thing to do.

I know. But they it was weak.

It was weak. It was bush league, and that's the story.

I had no problem with it whatever. I remember Johnny Bench tried to bunt in the seventh inning of game against Kenny Holtzman of the Cubs, and Holtzman threw a no hitter, and I remember I was with guys and they're like, that's so cheap to try and go what are you talking about. Wait, I'm supposed to just go up there and swing and help you out here.

But then someone trying to bunt off Nolan, Ryan th ruin, Yes, and no, Ryan let him know what he thought about that.

Yeah, okay, but that's a regular season game. This is the College World Series time, the elimination game for Murray State. Anything it takes.

Y'll plug for him. The good job. Nice to get you footing there. Yeah, see Ali rally monkey.

Well.

I think part of the problem is that when you play baseball, you have to stay in the batter's box.

You have to stay in on a pitch. Right.

If you start getting out of the way every time there's a breaking ball coming towards you, you're the chances of you you're going to strike out way more than you get hit by a pitch.

But you can dance out of the way of a pitch that's inside. You can. Yeah, I mean, guys get out of the way of you know, pitches that get away from pitchers. They do. But do you think it was bush league what happened where they?

Oh?

No, okay, Marvin. Do you think it was Bush League that the batter you know stayed in there to get on base? No?

Okay, I give him way more credit. You ever got hit by a baseball, especially in your foot, it hurts it hurts like hell, it kills.

The pitcher should be more mad at himself.

And I know I only pitch baseball Little League, so I'm not making any comparison other than to say if I was in that position, I'd first be mad at myself that I'd let it get that close to a batter, But right behind that, I'd be like, dude, me, you know, I wouldn't approach the batter, But in my head, I'd be like, I can't beif you couldn't move.

It, you're going to get on base getting hit by a pitch, or you're going to strike out.

To me, it's not that black of whe It would depend on the situation.

No, this situation is game. Is it just a regular season game? Is a World Series game? I think yesterday's situation.

Instinctually, I would have tried to get out of the way if I see the ball curving towards my foot. Instinctual, without even thinking about perfect games or push the league or what I would be, I would always look to get out of the way of.

Getting hit by a pitch. That would just be an instinct.

But you could get on base.

I understand what you're saying, but it's also.

Like it's elimination.

This guy's dominating us the only way perfectly still and let this ball hit bad?

Is true?

That is true.

Yes, In the following inning, would hit a batsman and the batter dipped his elbow. At least the umpires called him for dipping his elbow into the pitch. That's example, according to the umpires, of a guy not getting out of the way so much that he went into the pitch and they called him out for the.

Umpire missed one.

You could have moved your foot out of the way into that.

That guy should have been out to alrighty.

We accomplished absolutely nothing right there. But Todd has set the tone once again starting the show. Come on, let's rally here, Let's come on, let's go, let's let's get together here. Bush not really around.

Smattering. We've had a lot of smatterings.

Okaypping, you know, it's been a long week. It's Friday. Just get through the show.

I pas made it feel like it should be Friday or any because.

It really is yesterday. You made it feel like it was Friday, so you can imagine. Now it feels like it's Saturday.

It feels like we're working on the weekend.

Right, how about we take a break.

It sounds like some kind of like like a line you could write to your wife or something that goes wrong, like, Babe, you make every day feel like it's Friday, but for somebody to hear it doesn't work.

Or something got a very negative connotation the way he said.

How about we take a break here? All right, take a break, Let's regroup, regroup. We'll be back after this.

Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio dot com and within the iHeartRadio app. Search FSR to listen live hockey tonight. NBA will be off until Thursday. Back in Indiana, got a quick NBA quiz, a brand new poll question. People are piling on Fritzy, calling him soft because he had a problem with the Murray State batter who didn't get out of the way of a pitch as he was trying to break up a perfect game and elimination game against Arkansas yesterday College World Series. Yeah, I'm kind of firing through the channels and all of a sudden, I see zero and zero and zero, and I go all right. Sixth inning, seventh inning, let the dan Netz know, I go ESPN. I didn't even say it, just ESPN.

And then that way you tune in, you're not quite sure what you're going to get, and all of a sudden we had ourselves a perfect game going on. Then it turned into a no hitter. First time since nineteen sixty that we've had a no hitter in the College World Series. Remarkable. And pitchers don't go nine innings. I mean, that's that's what's unheard of. But you'll find that though in the World Series where they're going to pitch them a little bit longer. Because you have a couple of pitchers and you know it's an elimination game. You want to make sure that you're going to hold on and advance. All right, let's do the brand new poll question. Then we'll do the NBA quiz, and then we'll get some phone calls in here. All right, Paul uh Seaton actually has the poll. Oh okay, oh, somebody just said, hey, Fretzi herm Edwards is on the line. You play to win the game?

Whatever?

There? All right, see what do you have?

Should the Murray State hitter down three runs in the eighth inning of a college World Series elimination game. They've done more to help Gauge Wood of Arkansas get a perfect game.

I wrote it.

Right now, Seventy five percent of this audience say no, he should not have done that. Twenty five percent say yes, okay. Kind of leading the witness with that poll qust only four votes on that, So that means one person voted yes, okay, three voted no.

Todd may be in fact that one.

Person all right, it is possible, right, okay, Now we're up to one hundred votes. Now, right now, ninety four percent say no, you play to win the.

Game, Todd.

Get out of the way of the pitch.

No.

No, So you're saying, in a split second he should realize the historic pitching situation and do more to help the pitcher.

Yes, I thought it was in a split second. It is like I'm about to get by a pitch. I mean to get out of the way.

The instinct is just did not get hit by a pitch.

Yeah, but you get on base. Remember Walt's as good as a hit. Well, getting hit is as good as a hit. Two.

That's not the bad news Bears with the coaches like lean into it, you suck, You're not able to get on base unless you.

The ball hits against that guy. Everybody sucked against him. Yesterday he had nineteen strikeouts.

Yeah see, I really believe that one of the uh I think you know a sports you eventually hit apart like a level that separates people where all right, so the real players go on and do this, the other guys drop off by now. I really believe one of them is your ability to stay into the batter's box and get hit by pitches. I really believe that is like the dividing line, one of the dividing lines for kids, when you're able to stay in the box and think you're gonna get hit or get hit over and over and over again, and you still stay in there, right. I think that's one of those things that separates great players from everybody else who just drops off.

Yes, John, that's extremely fair.

And I had an example where there was someone that was throwing particularly hard and wild in Little league and I got so far away out of fear I was gonna hit by a pitch. The home played up had a cold time out and said son, and he pushed my back, and he pushed me back into the battles box. I was literally out of the battles box worrying about getting hit. So I was not one of those guys that was not destined for baseball greatness.

Yeah, I don't think that was the only thing that I held you back.

I quite a nice curveball, but the coach looked at me like, we don't do that. You're ten years old out.

There, Yes, Paul, I just went back and watched the clip again just to get Fritz a fair shake. And the hitter's name is Dom Decker from Murray State. The curveball comes well inside and drops hard and he jacks his legs back to get out of it so his knees don't get hit, but his feet stayed because you can't do both at the same time. He can't jump in the air, and his back foot got nicked. He definitely tried to get out of the way as the ball is coming.

John and Georgia, Hey John, what's on your mind today?

Good morning, DP, Good morning gentlemen. I think that this might be a time in Dan Patrick's show history to bring in relegation. You know you you refer to Fritzy often at the start of the show as the King of Comedy. Well, we might need to relegate him back down to Minister of humor, just to give him a chance to kind of build back up. And you know, a couple of misses the last couple of days, he might need a shot to kind of get himself strong again.

All right, well, thank you, John, But this wasn't This isn't an attempt at humor as far as this example, this is just something I caught my eye, and I'm like, this guy lost his perfect game. Because this guy kept this perfect He's still like a statue and didn't move his foot out of it. But that's that's not a comedy routine. That's just my take on what I saw. Okay, just one set eyes. Okay, I saying we should like kill the guy, but it's just weak.

Are you sticking with this?

I am?

Okay. David in Arkansas, h David, what's on your mind?

And gentlemen, thanks for taking the call. I do appreciate it. As a lifelong Razorback fan. That was one of the greatest greatest achievements in Razorback history. Yesterday, well truly good. This picture missed two months of the season due to a shoulder injury, so throwing over one hundred pitches like he did. Was just fantastic. And also college rules, you know, you do not have to get out of the way. However, like the guy who got hit and was called out, you cannot lean into the pitch in any way.

So well, congratulations David, thank you, thank you for updating. I don't know if it deserved a round of a blade. He did sound a little like Jerry Jones, though, you know, fellow Arkansas razor back. Yes, but no one said that.

You bout it did anything illegal. I certainly didn't say did anything illegal.

I'm saying unwritten rules and bush leak and things like that, which is totally separate from the rule book.

I just wanted to clarify that oh can do with leagalot.

Okay, let's just frame this. It's the College World Series. It's an elimination game. You're being dominated, right, we can all agree, and you're it's it's three to nothing. You got to get on base whatever it takes, and if it takes leaning into a pitch, uh, not trying to get out of the way, I at least get on base. I have to break his momentum. I have to break his rhythm here. I have no problem whatsoever, whatever it takes. I unlike you play to win the game. Todd fair enough, Yes, Fritzy.

Let's say gage Wood had a two hitter going and the same exact thing happened. Should the hitter have done more to get out of the way.

I think that situation would change for me.

So he has to while he's trying to hit. One of the best pitchers in college baseball, has to think about the historical significance of the other team's pitch.

I think unless it was bases loaded in a one run game or a tie where you can tie it or win it by get a hit with the pitch, anything less than that, get out of the way.

Do you have a problem with somebody trying to bunt on Nolan Ryan. Yes, to break, but.

You know about how you feel about Nolan Ryan.

I love Nolan Ryan. It's a different picture. Maybe not so much bunting on Nolan Ryan.

That is just so beyond weak.

Absolutely, get your forty five year old ass off the mound and go get it.

We can't hit you. I'm gonna stick myn and hope the ball hits the bat. You can outrun the throat of first base.

Desperate times, desperate measures. Christian Syracuse. Hi, Chris, Hey, Thanks Dan.

Hey, right off, I just want to say I apologize. If my life is ever buzzing. I'm on a landline phone. All my lines do it. I've called the phone company that can't do anything. And over the years, I've always prided myself and I haven't a clean line. So I wanted to apology.

You're emeritus. You're emeritus. It's okay with your landline. The fact that you have a landline. I love that.

Yeah.

See, that's actually why Chris disappeared for so many years from the show. He was working at his landline issues, and we appreciate that sacrifice.

Chris. It's good to have you back now, okay.

Or not.

Okay. I wanted to throw at a couple of things Game Savage. You guys were talking about hockey or basketball. If I'm guaranteed in overtime, obviously I'm going hockey and Murray State. I got no problem with it. But I'm almost positive that I read that Murray State coaches and manager admits it. They are taught to stay in the batter's box. They've had a ton of times getting hit and umpires are are told to make sure they're not leaning into it. And I want to throw a nugget at you, Dan that I read this morning that I found is I don't know if it can be true, but it says Rick Carlisle in the last twenty five years as a coach, since the year two thousand and if the Pacers come back and win the series, which I think they're going to, it'll be fifty times five zero fifty times that since the year two thousand in playoff series he has beaten a higher seed. So that's an average of two for twenty five years. I thought it was amazing.

I'll get some of my best people on that, Fritzie, see if you can have somebody verify that. Take a look, Mike, Wait, did you hear what he said?

I caught the very end of that year was respoting to a golf pr email.

Okay, I wouldn't need that again. Okay, all right, fair enough, good, Hey, I'll be glad to look at that. Hey, Broke, how about some progress? So tell us what exactly are you looking into?

What are you going to be researching that thing?

But normally you would fight it eleven? Is that what we go to go oh gosh, let's see Dakota and Kentucky High. Dakota. What's on your mind? Hey, Dan, what's up?

I think after everything we've all been through with Fritzy, we should put him in a batter's box, in a batting cage, and he needs to take a pitch from a pitching machine.

We'll suck at Fritzy. All right. Well, here's the problem. Fritzie got hurt playing whiffleball. Let that sink in.

And I wasn't hit by a pitcher.

No, I was just swinging the back too many times, too hard, the very light that Yeah, you got hurt. It's like trying to throw a knrfball or even a whiffleball as hard as you can over a period of time, even though it was like one game for me.

Jimmy in Indiana, Hi, Jimmy, what's on your mind?

Good morning?

Dan?

And Dan.

It's six foot two hundred.

Dan.

I'm a college graduate, but I just can't take her.

Frame that degree.

Yeah, okay, it concerns Pritsy. Oh, so I need you to help me understand. How we know from an academic viewpoint, he's very high on the scale, but at the same time, he's a guy that wanted to take a pie out of the oven without any gloves, And that tells me he has absolutely no common sense whatsoever. So how the hell can those two things combine in one person? Help me understand?

All right? Thank you, Jimmy, Jimmy college grad. Uh, Paully saved the Jimmy college grad.

Jimmy college grad.

Uh.

Why do you have to be a negative thing? Why can I just be like a unicorn or a enigma? Why does it have to.

Be street smarts? No clue what's going on? But he can memorize, you know, the periodic table of the elements?

Is it that?

But that's.

To grasp the essence of a human being. He could get a ninety five on a tester in a but he doesn't know what help is.

Another one, Todd, you don't know how to use a broom. You didn't know how to use scissors.

That's because we didn't have But I had trouble cutting the net.

You did get ready to take a pie out of the oven.

He kept me from having to get third degree burns.

Okay, those are three three examples.

Those are three strong examples.

Yes, you you did not know how to use a broom.

People use its in different ways.

I decided to collect it by pushing out instead of bringing it.

Tod, Todd, you did not know how to do.

I would have got the job that eventually a job.

Take a pie out of the oven, and you did. We have the video of that.

We haven't even gotten around to him watching him try to cut that cake.

Oh my, that was that was crazy? Okay.

I nearly froze to death on a air conditioned bus with a bunch of senior citizens.

Done for me growing up everything, so it made it difficult everything until I moved to LA when I was twenty two.

I really wasn't sure how to do.

So I get you into a movie, a Sandler movie. Do that, and it's drizzly cold day, and then Todd's like so cold.

I was trying to be a trooper and lobar pneumonia.

And then I said, Tod, why didn't you just ask the wardrobe person will get you a jacket?

I was very shy. I didn't want to bother everybody.

And now you're shy when there's a woman around.

Everybody seemed very go on the bus and.

Then Todd goes on the bus. There's air conditioning. Todd doesn't think to ask the driver, can you turn down the air conditioning? And then I see him and I said, what's wrong? There was air conditioning? I go, did you tell him to turn it off?

I could laugh about it now, but I really didn't feel well. I thought I was gonna. I was like, I have to go to like an emergency. Where was that? Something was really not?

Oh my god, not a bit.

I really, I really I thought I was.

That's why people like this isn't true. He's not really like that. Yes it's true. Yes, he's really had.

A nice at the next morning. Let me know how you felt about how I handled this.

I was. I was very stern with you.

What of those pleasant experiences?

I was angry with you. I was angry you embarrassed me at the movie set, which was not my intention. Oh, it wasn't your intention.

I happened Dan, who always goes out of his way to have us have our dreams come true and be in like movies.

Yes, Martin, what's on your mind?

Martin?

I hate to bring this. It's fritzy a Karen.

No, No, I think he's just soft. I get he just you know, sometimes has a hard time navigating life. That's all complaining about ridiculous things, you know, But he's really bright and funny, and he graduates second in his class in high school.

I always think of a Karen of someone who screams and yells and makes a scene like on an airplane.

Don't sit next to me with that hat on.

I'm like, I've never acted like that. The onion bagels is wish.

Okay, that might have been one. It's probably Karenish, yes, Karnish. Yeah, Marvin, Yeah.

I didn't.

I was terrist. I didn't scream at their girls. We did not have tuna fish.

We got to play you god, you yelled at a girl who was probably in high school and she's not management a minimum, she did not have an onion bagel, and you freaked out. You possibly not.

I think the people in the drive through, even the teenagers, they have more say than you think about.

They should be on top of that. We're out of cream cheese. I should order some. I don't know, do we not have tuna? I should probably order that, take some initiative, but I know we don't have any more bagels. Onion bagels are tuna fish, so that's it. You're just gonna accept that as an employee.

Here show some initiative if you want to be a manager, Miss Jones, I just want to let you know.

We're out of onion bagels and tuna and a lot of people like that. We should probably want it more.

How about we take a break here? Okay about we take a break?

You want to climb the louder, you can just say we don't have that. Next, what else do you want?

She wants to climb the core prit ladder at Bruger's Bagel.

I'm not I'm not man too many bagel places where I was, but at some bagel place makes the step up their game.

In Glastonbury, Connecticut.

Hey? You doing today? Dan?

Great?

Jim?

Hey, I know what would make this segment you gottare doing even better? I love Frizy, No, no, I love Fritzy. Okay, he makes the show, Okay, but if you can make him do a limerick about this whole situation, that would be amazing.

All right, let me see if I can get for Fritzi to craft up a limerick here. I think we can do that, of course you can. Let's see. Duke in Boise, Hi, Duke, what's on your mind?

Hey?

Hey Dan?

Thanks for taking my calls. Six one two fifteen. For folks that are kind of clutching their pearls about like Johnny Bench or that kid yesterday trying to bust up a perfect game. I pitched at Sonoma State, tiny little d three school years ago. We had a kid on Friday who had a perfect game going into the seventh catcher kind of leaned into one, broke up the perfect game, unwritten rule, gotta swinging all that stuff. Saturday, I'm starting. He comes up first pitch right in his ribs because you know, unwritten rule, got to protect the team. He slowly walks to first, turns to me and blows me a kiss. So what I'm saying is there's ways to defend that kind of behavior. It hurts me today. It's the most emasculating thing of my life. Anyways, that's it.

Okay, But does that bother you as a pitcher, what that hitter did yesterday in the elimination game in the College World Series, It is.

Not at all.

I can see it on both sides for sure. No, I mean there's two sides of history. One you do not want to be on for every no hitter in perfect game, somebody was a massive failure.

All right, Well, thank you too. I agree. Now, if there was a game today that yesterday was an elimination, and that guy came to the plate against an Arkansas pitcher, then you might buzz the tower there. Now, I don't know if they have unwritten rules in college the way they do in you know, major league baseball. Here's another thing that it doesn't happen very often, but when it does, it's pretty exciting. It's when somebody goes from pitching in the college World Series or playing in the World Series and then they go right to the major leagues. It doesn't happen very often. And why is that with baseball? Whereas in basketball you could be one and done and go You're in the NBA the next year. Now you have guys who have gone from that didn't play minor league baseball. Think Dave Winfield and Bob Horner, a couple of guys that come to mind. But man, somebody will have this momentum and you go, oh, God, that guy was lights out of the World Series. What happened to him? Oh, he's down in Double A. And then you don't see him for four or five years. They lose that Oh I watched that guy in March Madness and he's going to be playing in the NBA or I watched this guy in the college football playoffs and he's going to be starting it for my team at quarterback. Yes, Mark, Yeah.

There's probably only a couple of guys that I can remember that was in the College World Series and they became major league players. Steven Strasburg was hot four second and Paul Skins. But other than that, I really can't think off the top of my head, met anybody in that spot.

Dave in Washington, Hi, Dave, what's on your mind today?

More than DP Dane?

How you doing good? Good?

So?

I think we got a little pie of the face here for Fritzy. I don't know that Fritzy could stay in the box to face a curve ball at that speed, let alone, you know, be able to get out.

Of the way.

Well, we took batting practice when we were out at the super Bowl in Arizona, and we were at the Giants spring training site and they set up the pitching machine and they're probably, you know, it might have been eighty we had them. I think bring it up to ninety, and Fritzie hung in there. Fritzy had some good hacks. But I mean it's different with a live game. The ball is kind of going straight, although you could make it curve, make it dip, make it do a lot of different things. But basically it was probably eighty five to ninety miles an hour, and Fritzie was staying in there. I mean, nobody puts on a like a grimace the way like god, you know where he's chopping it down the third base line. But you did pretty well.

I took it very seriously.

I don't know, I've had this angry face like I had to prove I can get some.

Hits with that.

See would you update the poll results from the first hour. I'd be happy too.

This is a very specific poll question, very have Uh, we've got up there right now, should the Merry State hitter down three runs in the eighth inning of a College World Series elimination game done more to help gage Wood of Arkansas get a perfect game?

Right now? Let's see, we've.

Got many more votes now. Ninety three point two percent say no, okay, six point eight are saying yes.

Okay, all right, tot So you got a couple of fans there, couple yeah, hanging in there. Fritzi says, Hey, somebody sent me a tweet said you're the man Fritzi and then he goes, I just got another tweet, Fritzy, You're soft and needy.

Like IY some Chinese food.

Yeah them up? Alrighty one hour in the books. We'll talk about the NBA last night and JJ spawn us Open champ in the final hour. We're back after this
