7th
0:06
2024 I am in Arlington Texas flew into
0:11
Dallas Fort Worth yesterday today I will
0:14
be knocking off my 25th that's right 25
0:19
stadiums current stadiums just put that
0:21
little Aster current stadiums because
0:24
you know stadiums kind of come and go
0:25
but the 30 current stadiums that have
0:27
been around for a few years I will be
0:30
knocking off number 25 in hopes of by
0:33
the end of this season doing all 30
0:35
watching wearing an appropriate hat my
0:38
Tampa Bay Rays I'm also wearing my Jose
0:40
Siri new t-shirt I got at the trop last
0:44
week or so ago stadium is actually right
0:47
over here I believe but before heading
0:50
over to Globe Life Field I'm going to go
0:53
over to where the Dallas Cowboys play
0:55
right over there and I want to find the
0:58
old Arlington state Stadium where years
1:01
ago I think it was the early 9s I came
1:04
out here with my family we went to Wet n
1:05
Wild which I believe now has changed
1:08
names and also a baseball game at the
1:11
old
1:13
stadium I think that was all we I think
1:15
that's all we did we went to a
1:16
convention we went to a uh a church
1:17
convention out here and I uh got a hold
1:21
of my dad earli texting my dad to see if
1:23
he remembers when it was we were here so
1:26
I'm going to try to recall exactly when
1:30
it was that uh we were here before but I
1:32
have never been to the new stadium nor
1:35
have I been to the new stadium while
1:37
watching the Tampa Bay R number 25 is
1:39
about to happen inviting you to join me
1:40
as this trolley goes
1:43
by Shall you I must admit baseball is
1:47
really the only for uh sport that I
1:50
follow I was into football way back in
1:52
the day this in the 80s and '90s back in
1:54
the Bo Jackson days Auer Tigers when he
1:56
played for the LA Raiders but since then
1:59
really haven't paid much
2:02
attention just like just like baseball
2:05
love
2:06
baseball even though I did watch a
2:08
little bit of the Buccaneers last year
2:09
when they were in the postseason what it
2:11
called postseason playoffs they got
2:13
eliminated because you know local team
2:15
from Florida but this is definitely an
2:18
impressive building right here though
2:19
this looks to have an enclosed Dome as
2:21
well believe Globe Life also does and I
2:24
hope it does cuz today is a 141st pitch
2:28
and the seats if it is an Expos roof I
2:30
would be sitting in the sun and it's
2:32
definitely a little toasty not a lot of
2:34
clouds out at the moment even though
2:36
there's a tropical storm heading towards
2:39
the shores within the next day or so but
2:42
right now no clouds on the sky so it' be
2:44
nice if the the baseball stadium dome is
2:49
closed hopefully that is definitely
2:53
again a very
2:56
impressive
2:57
field at T&T Stadium
3:00
but I have a probably probably had
3:01
pretty good service here hopefully
3:03
Thomas Wade Landry right here there's a
3:06
sculpture of him in front of it as well
3:09
hello there Tom all right I stepped
3:11
inside pretty neat look at this effect
3:13
over here you can see the football
3:14
players on the field over there amongst
3:17
the sparkly thing and there's someone
3:18
walking out it's not a football player
3:20
though I think that's just a a worker
3:23
but the way this AFF works you see see
3:24
you see the football field in there look
3:26
at that Isn't that cool this says please
3:28
participate be grateful enjoy Focus
3:31
meditate feel open up interact etc etc
3:33
and expect s a
3:40
miracle let me think of the Dallas
3:40
Cowboys you definitely think about the
3:44
cheerleaders America's Sweethearts look
3:46
up here there's some cleats up top those
3:48
the cheerleader shoes those might be the
3:49
cheerleader
3:51
shoes I'm in the gift shop
3:58
though yeah the city's got quite a few
3:58
Champions back to back champions here
4:00
the
4:02
Cowboys and also the rangers they won
4:05
the World Series last year so and
4:07
they've also won two of the first three
4:09
against the ray series that this is
4:10
actually going to be game three
4:12
today hopefully they're not going to get
4:14
the sweep this is the only game I can go
4:16
to I flew in yesterday couple mannequins
4:18
here with Prescott's number on the back
4:20
and you also got a lot of other people
4:23
up top here I'm not again I'm not really
4:25
very
4:26
familiar oh I recognize him is that a
4:31
Aman I think that might be
4:33
Aman so I know a little I don't know I'm
4:35
probably completely
4:37
off got the gold post right here take a
4:40
look at this right through the
4:43
uprights oh I hear some I hear uh I hear
4:46
some cheering think there's something
4:48
over the intercom making some cheering
4:51
there's a stairway here too you can go
4:52
upstairs see what's up here
5:04
look out here there's out onto the
5:04
there's the stadium right out there look
5:06
at that that's
5:12
cool yeah you go to the top floor of the
5:12
gift shop you can peek out into the
5:14
stadium
5:24
itself got a variety of names
5:24
here along the side of the wall as well
5:32
okay so this is the same brand of the
5:32
Siri shirt I'm wearing right now for the
5:34
Rays but check it out you got the
5:36
techmobile shirt over there EMT Smith oh
5:39
yeah I recognize EMT Smith's name for
5:41
sure and then stach up there
5:45
okay Dion neon
5:48
Dion guess he played for
5:56
them pretty cool I've been noticing in
5:56
the trees there's something in the trees
6:00
is there are some really unique noises
6:04
almost like the Florida what they called
6:06
cicas kind of like that but almost more
6:08
intense
6:19
listen hopefully it translates the
6:19
camera well
6:53
that oh my gosh that is
6:53
loud okay I'll get out of your area
6:55
sorry
7:02
kind of
7:02
a half wet half dried rivered right
7:06
here much more Greenery here than the LA
7:09
River which is pretty dried
7:12
up it's a fancy looking building there
7:14
as
7:16
well also looks like Arlington is going
7:19
to be hosting the allstar game coming up
7:21
not too long not too far from now I
7:23
won't be in town for that but that's
7:24
pretty pretty
7:26
exciting it's like there's a shopping
7:28
cart turned upside down there in the
7:30
little Ravine
7:32
also almost looks like a a dam of sorts
7:36
look looks like there's some like some
7:37
beavers got to the top of it and put
7:39
some sticks and things or maybe not
7:42
should might just be trash just like the
7:44
Hollywood Walk of Fame except here there
7:46
are no actors it's the Chevrolet
7:48
Suburban that has a
7:50
star it's the only one I see through
7:52
this area and this unique piece of
7:56
artwork that's the one star well besides
7:59
the you know Dallas Cowboy star a little
8:01
disappointed the Rays did not get the
8:03
win last night then the series would
8:04
have been tied up they could have gone
8:06
in today hoping to get another Series
8:09
win but they've already lost this series
8:11
of course it's regular season so the the
8:13
SE the series will continue when it's in
8:16
the postseason you lose a series it
8:18
doesn't go to game three if you lose the
8:19
first two the rays are doing okay this
8:22
year but
8:23
definitely not the best of the I think
8:26
they're doing worst of the Last 5 Years
8:29
still little time it's a little bit
8:30
halfway it's about halfway through the
8:31
season so there is time to catch up
8:33
after the trade deadline in the allstar
8:35
game see what happens but I'm just going
8:37
to enjoy the day knockoff Stadium number
8:40
25 ooh yes fancy this live is made out
8:43
of like a reflective mirror there are
8:46
advertisements for the allstar game over
8:48
there I see Aaron judge off in the
8:51
distance so here is the new stadium that
8:54
is Globe live and this is chalk to
8:57
Stadium I believe which is where the
8:59
Rangers used to play from 94 until the
9:02
2000s right there had to look it up they
9:05
played here from 94 to 2019 I'm not sure
9:10
I think it might have been pre 94 when I
9:11
was here with my family so it was
9:13
probably the stadium before this that I
9:16
saw the Rangers and went to Wet n Wild
9:18
Wet N Wild's changing Nam like I said
9:20
there it is chalk to Stadium built the
9:23
new stadium right across the street so
9:24
the new stadium has only been open 5
9:26
years that's that's pretty neat just
9:29
watch it acoss that intersection which
9:30
has been named Nolan Ryan Expressway of
9:33
course Nolan Ryan played for the Rangers
9:35
played for a lot of teams love Nolan
9:38
Ryan I would say back in the day when I
9:39
used to collect baseball cards
9:42
and really be into baseball in the 80s
9:45
and '90s and the card collecting thing
9:47
then I kind of fell out of baseball for
9:48
a while in the last few years I've
9:50
really heavily gotten back into it but
9:52
my early early years of baseball days
9:55
Nolan Ryan and Roger Clemens man those
9:58
two guys those my favorites they have
10:00
the Globe Life in front of chalk to
10:03
Stadium but actually Globe Life is right
10:07
across the field over there home of the
10:10
All-Star Game Randy rosarina from the
10:13
Rays last year came second place in the
10:15
allstar game lost to vlat by like you
10:18
two home runs that was pretty cool to
10:20
watch just talked to a couple locals
10:22
heading in they said the old stadium is
10:24
no more it's been completely torn
10:31
down where Nolan Ryan played Nolan Ryan
10:31
did not play at chock doll I think he
10:33
stopped playing for the Rangers in like
10:34
93 that stadium was built in 94 man it
10:37
would have been cool to see Nolan Ryan
10:39
pitch in person never got to see that
10:40
but you know what there's the man
10:42
himself right here tipping the Hat Nolan
10:44
is in front of the new stadium even
10:46
though he never played here but yeah
10:47
when you think of the Rangers definitely
10:49
uh you think of a lot you think of you
10:50
think of Nolan Ryan one of the greatest
10:52
pitchers of all time tip andus C
11:22
think it's almost time for the gates to
11:23
open 2 hours before first pitch I
11:25
believe hopefully first pitch is at 1:40
11:28
it's 11 48 right now that was nice to
11:31
have the drum core out there's also a
11:33
7-Eleven right here oh 7-Eleven please
11:36
use other
11:38
door they just stopped they just stopped
11:40
playing the drums oh it's a 7-Eleven
11:42
right here in front of the stadium how
11:43
freaking convenient is that oh thank
11:51
heaven look at this a 7-Eleven right
11:51
here in the CR
11:53
Courtyard pretty good selection in here
11:55
also I ended up getting a little zero I
11:58
love the zero sugar Gatorade I've been
12:00
drinking a lot of those but they also
12:02
have a 7-Eleven brand zero
12:05
great look at this if you don't want to
12:07
get a dog inside you get a dog right
12:09
here all right Gates do not open 2 hours
12:13
before contrary to what it said on the
12:15
interwebs like it's going to be 90
12:17
minutes before first pitch cheer leaves
12:20
are out out now
12:33
all right I have made it in the first
12:33
thing I'm noticing is the AC is kicking
12:37
the trop is always 72° this almost feels
12:40
like it might be a tick or two cooler in
12:43
here it feel and the roof is freaking
12:46
closed that is awesome glad to see that
12:48
the roof oh my gosh okay yeah this is
12:50
already look the RS are already down
12:52
there uh warming up a little bit check
12:55
out the world champions truck it has the
12:58
has almost like a stolen crossbow
12:59
instead of crossbow a bass it's like
13:02
that's made it look like a baseball it
13:04
has the it has the baseball look to it
13:07
for obvious reasons all right I headed
13:09
up to level four talked to a very nice
13:11
associate by the name of Chuck who works
13:13
the I think the 108 or the 109 area and
13:16
he was giving me a few things said go to
13:17
level four then go to level two and then
13:20
go to level one he found he told me a
13:22
few things I need to check out before I
13:24
head to my seat so shout out to Chuck
13:26
very nice uh worker here and he alerted
13:29
me that they do have rocking chair seats
13:32
up here so you can actually sit here if
13:33
you so choose these are your seats yeah
13:36
wouldn't that be pretty cool to sit up
13:37
here in the rocking chairs and just
13:39
enjoy a game here in Texas all right
13:41
walking down to level one I have talked
13:43
to three or four team members here
13:45
talked to a couple lovely ladies up on
13:47
the Upper Floor and they were very kind
13:51
couple of nice older women that were
13:53
tell them explaining to me different
13:55
different things everyone here is just
13:56
so very kind and nice there was one
13:59
older lady that was saying that she's
14:01
been working here for many many years
14:03
and she has been to 25 stadiums also not
14:06
seeing the Rangers which she been to 25
14:08
stadiums and right over here is a lot of
14:10
different items this is where some of
14:11
the Nolan Ryan stuff they told me to
14:13
kind of look at they have a quite an
14:15
arsenal of different items over here in
14:17
these cases check it out there's George
14:19
W bush right there in bobblehead form as
14:23
well check out a little duck right there
14:25
PCH has a little bit of a glare here but
14:28
it appears to be some office furniture
14:31
uh you got Chuck Jersey right over there
14:34
you got some bats right here this is all
14:36
blocked off general public cannot go in
14:39
there there is a team member there
14:40
working well associate I don't know what
14:42
they call themselves here but yeah so
14:43
this is the below level one so there's
14:45
level one you take that escalator down
14:47
below level one and then you have a
14:50
little timeline here that you go along
14:52
and there's just like uh all kind of
14:54
food establishments and things down here
14:56
as well like plenty to eat here I'm
14:57
going to definitely hopefully I can get
14:59
get some nachos of some sort some helmet
15:00
nachos would be nice oh take a look at
15:02
all this artwork that's through here
15:04
here's some hand preps it's like a hand
15:06
prep Walk of Fame over here you got a
15:09
bunch of the horsemen here all scattered
15:12
through you got some people going by
15:13
bringing some products got a cart
15:16
rolling by me in the particular moment
15:18
you got all the different Horsemen are
15:20
these uh are these all Rangers player
15:23
these actually might be real Texas
15:24
Rangers the non non baseball player
15:27
versions dang there's even a Speak Easy
15:30
in here this kind of reminds me of like
15:32
Who Framed Roger Rabbit when you like
15:33
knock on the door is like anybody in
15:35
there and then the door opens like the
15:37
old Speak Easy through here 45 minutes
15:41
during limit limit during game time
15:43
that's pretty cool they have a Speak
15:44
Easy Bar down here that is that is
15:46
that's clever yeah Arlington Stadium
15:48
that's where I want to go find the spot
15:50
so there's the old Arlington Stadium
15:52
right there where this this happened
15:54
stadium is long gone but be able to walk
15:57
over and stand where home plate well the
15:59
approximate home plate location and find
16:02
where this exact moment took place one
16:04
of the greatest baseball brawls probably
16:06
well between pitcher and batter ever I
16:09
mean this is just it's just iconic I
16:10
don't think vur had any idea what was
16:12
going to happen when he when he started
16:13
charging the mound against the one and
16:15
only Nolan Ryan it is really nice and
16:18
comfortable in here too I do not think
16:19
I'm going to be breaking a sweat at all
16:21
today in here oh yeah so this is
16:23
definitely interesting setup the dugouts
16:26
the way the seats of the dugouts are
16:27
higher up and really I got to say I
16:29
don't really like the behind I've
16:31
watched games on TV here and behind home
16:33
plate is more of a dining area so when
16:36
you're watching the picture go to the
16:38
batter and you look at behind everyone's
16:39
just sitting there eating there's no
16:41
like seats that go all the way down to
16:43
field level which is kind of It kind of
16:45
strange it looks like even the first the
16:48
first row behind the raised Dugout which
16:51
is over here is like is up kind of
16:53
elevated you see over there how elevated
16:55
that is okay I'm down a little bit down
16:58
this way I
16:59
746 which is right over here so
17:03
746 yeah take a look at that isn't that
17:05
interesting that's behind home plate
17:07
right there but there's home plate I
17:09
don't know if I very very rare do you
17:12
see a like a sitting area where I mean
17:15
there are seats down there but it's like
17:16
it's like there's a tables of things
17:18
with popcorn and food on it's like a
17:19
different setup than you normally would
17:21
see all right I also has to ask that
17:22
Chuck is their announcer and that's the
17:24
announcers Booth up there that's what I
17:25
was looking at earlier I thought maybe
17:27
it'd be the owner not real familiar with
17:29
Rangers you know current Rangers but I
17:30
guess Chuck has been announcing for a
17:32
long time that's his move continue my
17:33
walking around I asked a couple people
17:35
if they had helmet notches so they have
17:36
nachos I'm not sure about helmet nachos
17:38
oh you're teasing me 76 Stadium the
17:41
original Arlington Stadium became the
17:43
first Major League Stadium to sell quote
17:45
ballpark
17:46
nachos they're not in a helmet
17:50
but
17:52
history history all right I have found
17:55
regular nachos I found a Taco Trio but
17:58
I've also found ballpark nacho so I'm
18:00
going to remember this around the third
18:01
or fourth inning I'm going to walk back
18:02
over here and get myself some
18:04
quintessential ballpark I don't know why
18:06
Tropic can of field doesn't sell these
18:08
but oh yeah this is my new thing at
18:10
Stadium got to have some ballpark nachos
18:12
all right the name of the place is Oppo
18:14
taco and I must say out of every Stadium
18:16
I've ever been to these are the nicest
18:18
workers every I've talked to probably 15
18:20
workers so far they're all so
18:25
nice deep in the Heart of Texas oh you
18:27
can kind of get a better view here uh
18:30
where I'm sitting right there behind the
18:32
raised Dugout just look how elevated
18:33
there like behind home plate you got the
18:36
raised Dugout which is kind of elevated
18:38
there's also a place called the Germania
18:40
Club down there on the end and with the
18:42
seats I have I'm allowed to go in that
18:44
Germania Club but it's mostly beer and
18:46
wine and things but I do want to go
18:47
check it out just to see what it looks
18:50
like impromptu stadium tour I looked to
18:54
see if they had a stadium tour today and
18:55
they didn't and I don't even think they
18:57
do on night game days too either which
18:59
is kind of odd at least from what I I
19:00
couldn't find a stadium tour these would
19:02
be pretty good seats right here too but
19:04
yeah look how deep and kind of
19:05
underground I mean it is called a Dugout
19:07
but this seems to be a little deeper

was dancing out in center field while
22:44
the Rays were were warming up also while
22:46
the Rays were warming up out in the
22:48
Outfield they ended up having Captain
22:50
which I guess their mascot of the
22:52
Rangers a horse was out on a vehicle
22:54
driving around which was kind of kind of
22:56
neat to see you think the should be
22:58
running around the Outfield but no he's
23:00
getting driven around in a in a in a in
23:02
a jeep of some
23:09
sort they're doing the opening lineups
23:09

23:13
startat playing short number seven
23:17

23:20
as well cowboy boots on cheerleaders out
23:25
with the with the cowboy boots on all
23:27
right here it goes
23:30
and a base hit by yandi typical yandi
23:33
Diaz first at bat of the game first
23:36
pitch of the game and he gets a single
23:39
by 25th Stadium CM the
23:43
Rays massive screen it's all the way up
23:46
at the top they also have their little
23:50
series Banner off to the side
24:04
throwing out some shirts up here on the
24:05
front of the Dugout thr out some
24:07
shirts Rangers just
24:11

24:14
the Rangers is the
24:16
brother
24:19
Josh who's out in right
24:22
field both brothers one for the Rays one
24:26
for the Rangers
24:28
two different
24:36
jams got the towel on the mound for our
24:36
starting pitcher
24:53
stadium so the only negative thing about
24:53
this exact seat is up
24:55
here got the lights on and the lights
24:58
are pretty bright kind of like right in
25:00
your eyes a little bit nothing major but
25:02
it is it is
25:03
noticeable you have to kind of like tilt
25:05
your hat down to steer the
25:15
light Lo Canon mode right now oh Laing
25:15
home
25:16
run about freaking
25:32
two run
25:32
blast this is kind of interesting it's
25:34
almost like those regular nachos on the
25:36
bottom and then the top level they
25:38
put like a zesty Doritos or something
25:40
you see how there's like a different Hue
25:42
to the color of the nachos there are
25:44
like Doritos on top and then nachos on
25:54
bottom even the crowd's
25:54
booing well actually they're booing
25:56
because single time
25:58
get a pitch
26:06
over it's like two different types of
26:06
chips uh-oh
26:10
uhoh
26:23
it not a good year for the race doing a
26:23
race out here it's three different
26:26
coins uh I think the green one is in the
26:29
lead red one is now in the
26:32
lead red one is going to take
26:34
it uh-oh it's close it's close looks
26:38
like it's going to be the red one the
26:40
red one wins in the M I don't know if
26:44
I'd call those mascots and they're just
26:45
like uh little like uh gambling
26:57
tokens home run Rangers they blast off
26:57
fireworks with the Dome
26:59
Flo Rangers are killing the race
27:04
today United
27:07
States like the mascot is the mascot is
27:10
very patriotic taking his hat off I just
27:12
watch it oh he's looking right at me the
27:14
horse is like looking right at me I
27:15
don't want a shirt horse can throw it
27:17
over my head I don't want a ranger shirt
27:18
get it over yes throw it it's into the
27:20
eighth inning now bottom of the eighth
27:22
and most of my section was cleared out
27:36
Rangers there's no outs the Rangers got
27:36
a guy on first and second 13-2 Rangers
27:40
bottom of the a two outs they got the
27:42
bases loaded
27:45
13-2 that's a ball safe to say the
27:48
Rangers are going to sweep this
27:59
series this is a l log way to fly out
27:59
here to knock off another Stadium to see
28:02
the Rays lose in this fashion you know
28:04
what it's the baseball just never take
28:06
the bad with the good take the good with
28:16
bad all right last chance for the rise
28:16
went ahead and moved up moved up to the
28:19
front no body in
28:28
Bear all right one out remaining strike
28:28
one one out remaining the Rangers have
28:31
swept the
28:33
series Siri right there he wasn't in the
28:36
game today even though I'm wearing his
28:55
shirt strike two
28:58
TR three the ray
29:01
lose ah that was definitely very very
29:06
disappointing but you know what is what
29:08
it is all right I am going to there's no
29:12
RI Jersey there I am going to head out
29:16
go find that
29:19
spot heading now I do like the stadium
29:22
at least the the first tier is kind of
29:25
weird I get I kind of showed all that
29:27
but the rest of the stadium is pretty
29:28
dang awesome oh this is kind of nice so
29:29
you got this hotel here look at this 15
29:32
minutes
29:34
parking Starbucks I don't even see a
29:37
Starbucks over
29:38
here but I guess you can take trolley
29:40
out of here too look at the mass exitus
29:43
past the old stadium there's even uh
29:47
even trolleys there's like a couple
29:49
trolleys
29:50
here another Starbucks 15minute Park
29:53
must be a Starbucks over there
30:01
nice little breeze through here it's
30:01
like a wind
30:03
tunnel man Rae got
30:06
swept fat
30:08
traa all right walking by this stadium
30:12
so they have it kind of some security
30:14
out here this is chocka Stadium second
30:19
home of the Rangers going over where the
30:21
first one was which I believe is where I
30:23
saw the game back in the day again I
30:25
didn't see Nolan Ryan pitch they're
30:28
constructing the allstar Village is
30:30
going to be over here the this old
30:39
stadium wow look down there they got all
30:39
kind of stuff they're putting up all
30:41
right walked a little bit of a ways down
30:42
this
30:43
direction and looking at Old satellite
30:46
images it appears as if the old
30:48
Arlington Stadium which was the first
30:52
Stadium the Rangers played
30:54
in it's right
30:56
here right in here home plate off that
31:00
way coming down first base line
31:03
here pitcher mound over there
31:07
Outfield that
31:20
Direction August of
31:20
1993 the last season the stadium this
31:23
particular stadium was active what a
31:26
historic moment think of baseball
31:29
brawls that's probably in the top five
31:32
if not the number
31:42
one and Home Plate would have been right
31:42
about
31:44
there just about in that area pictures M
31:48
would have been somewhere over there
31:50
plenty of clips on YouTube plenty of
31:52
Clips online plenty of Clips if you surf
31:55
web just look up Nolan Ryan ventur
32:04
uh it is really quite a quite a
32:04
Monumental baseball moment and there was
32:06
home plate right about there right about
32:08
in there give or take a few
32:10
feet a't that cool that's pretty dang
32:18
cool all right heading back to my hotel
32:18
it's hot out here I do find it
32:20
fascinating that there's not anything
32:22
designating the home plate was right
32:24
there though can't go over that fence
32:26
obviously Maybe because they know
32:28
they've sold this land to other
32:34
developers bu of trash in here this is
32:34
the parking lot I guess if you know I
32:38
guess if it was out here you could put
32:40
where the former home plate used to be
32:41
you see that at a lot of older stadiums
32:43
that are torn down and newer stadiums
32:51
built and the best of my
32:51
deciphering that's where it was right
32:53
about there before obviously before that
32:55
road this place there stood right here
32:59
home plate right over here to the right
33:01
of the screen third Baseline left field
33:09
there is definitely a little toasty
33:09
thank goodness that was inside a dome
33:12
with nice AC kicking staying
33:14
hydrated got my water stay to the end of
33:17
the game I never leave games early no
33:19
matter what the outcome is obviously
33:22
traveled a long way to get here I'm not
33:24
going to leave before the game's over
33:29
I man I I'm I'm parched right now prob
33:32
we should be chugging this thank
33:34
goodness the helmet nachos were good
33:35
because the Rays today certainly were
33:38
not in fact this whole series they
33:40
weren't up until this series they had
33:42
won the last five series they've been
33:43
doing pretty good seems like this year
33:46
every time they get a little momentum
33:48
get everyone excited including myself
33:50
get a get the ball rolling the train
33:52
keep starts uh getting getting some
33:56
speed there's
34:04
setbacks what can you do there's those
34:04

34:12
