0:01
It's a huge honor. Um, so thank you,
0:03
Doc, for, you know, giving that to me.
0:07
it's the All-Star game is something that
0:09
I think, you know, for myself, I I was
0:11
lucky enough to do it last year. Um, I
0:16
I don't uh imagine a scenario where I
0:18
would, you know, turn down starting the
0:19
the All-Star game. Um, and it's just
0:23
such a huge honor to, you know, be on
0:24
this stage and play with, you know, all
0:26
these um unbelievable players. uh some
0:29
of them that I've you know watched for
0:31
for years and to be able to share a
0:33
field with them is is an awesome
0:35
experience. So great to be back. Pretty
0:37
much want to echo what TK said. I
0:40
pitchers think that everything's a
0:42
strike and then you go back and look at
0:43
it and it's two three balls off. So we
0:46
we should not be the ones that are
0:48
uh challenging it. Yeah. Um I think uh I
0:53
don't know. I I I really do like the
0:55
human element of the game. Um, I think
0:56
this is one of those things that um, you
1:03
you kind of think that umpires are great
1:05
until they're not. Um,
1:08
and uh, so I I I could kind of care less
1:10
either way to be honest. I think this is
1:12
a good time to kind of reset. Um,
1:15
obviously the All-Star game is tomorrow,
1:17
so we have a effectively a two two-day
1:19
All-Star break. So hopefully just um you
1:23
know reset on those two days and go into
1:25
the second half strong. Um you know cuz
1:29
it's it's pretty easy to have a poor
1:31
second half and then everybody forgets
1:32
about you starting the All-Star game.
1:34
So, um, just got to just got to keep
