Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, this is the Doug Gottlieb Show. Here's in
the bonus with Doug Gottlieb.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Doug Gottlieb Show. In the Bonus Fox Sports Radio, iHeart
Radio App. Hey, welcome in. Oh, how are you? What's
going on? How's your day? This is the Doug gotlib Show.
It's Fox Sports Radio, iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
Welcome in.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
And you know it's interesting on how your perspective can
change when you based upon your own personal journey, location,
or understanding of something. The easiest example is the NFL draft. Right,
I've covered the NFL drafts in New York. Obviously most

(00:52):
people feel eventually, you know, move to l A. I
don't know if it moves once it gets to SOFI.
But now living in Green Bay, Wisconsin and watching the
draft come to town at what it means, probably mostly
financially to the area, I think it should change. It
at least changes my perspective. So like, could you handle it?

(01:15):
Could you have it at Madison Square Garden? Of course
it's a big event. Madison Square Garden.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Makes sense, But does it change.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
New York at all? If it's there or not there?
The answer is no, it does not. There's no new
buildings built, there's no special recognition, there's no economic boon
from it. The same goes with LA. Right, if it happens,
it doesn't happen in LA. There's a million awards shows,
there's a million different things. There's nothing that hosting in

(01:43):
LA does except for keep costs down. Because the NFL
network is right next to Sofi, eventually you feel like
it'll worked there or I don't know how many people
know this, they actually have a theater, five thousand seat
concert hall inside of SOFI. Right, so the idea is
whether they do it on the field, they do it
in the YouTube theater, and then they have it on
and so far at the stadium.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
But again, does it change anybody's life if it's in
LA or New York City?

Speaker 3 (02:09):
The answer is no.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
In Green Bay, Wisconsin, I'm broadcasting from the Legacy Hotel,
which is a block and a half or so from Lambeau.
You can see Lambeau from the sixth floor as we're
up here in the Eagles Nest, which is the is
it Eagles Nest, Crow's Nest, Cardinals Crest. I like Eagles Nest.
I think Eagles Nest would have been better than Cardinal
grest I just made up the name.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
Anyway.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
Point is that I can't actually see lambeau Field, and
behind the Rest Center, which is the basketball arena, hockey arena,
indoor football arena where.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
We play is the set.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
And I don't think it changes anybody's life, but it
is kind of a once in a lifetime sort of
deal and for the town or city of Green Bay, Wisconsin,
that this is a major, major thing. Right, Buildings have
been erected. I know you say that we're directed and
everybody loses it. We're all sophomores at heart. But buildings

(03:06):
are put up. Police officers get over time, businesses fill
up their their pockets, and people get to Verbo their
house for ungodly sums of money. And so it's one
of those things to where so oftentimes when you're a
media member like I've been for twenty five years, or
you're a fan of something, you're like, why can't we
just go to the big venues?

Speaker 3 (03:27):
I love it.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
I love things in Vegas. They're easy to get to.
I love things in La It's my home area.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
In New York City is synonymous with drafts of the past,
but now having experienced it, there is something special about
these smaller cities getting an opportunity that are so unique.

Be sure to catch live editions of The Doug Gottlieb
Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
Let's find out who are What's annoying? Jason Stewart.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
And now it's your annoy Oh man, there's a lot
of good stuff today, but let's get first to this.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
Freed. Max Freed, I think it's Max. I'm space on
his first name. He had a no hitter going in
the Yankees game yesterday, and then he had a no
hitter going, and then out of the blue, the number
one was put up on the scoreboard for hit three hour,
three innings later by the scorekeeper who reversed an error

(04:35):
into a hit to break up the no hitter. Michael
k was not happy with this.

Speaker 5 (04:41):
You see the line and no, you didn't miss a batter.
I am absolutely flabbergacid, ladies and gentlemen. The official scorer
here Hot steinber to Field, a man by the name
of Bill Matthews has changed the Simpson E three into
a hit. While the Yankees are in the dugout. Just unfathomable.
Either you call it when it happens, you don't wait
three innings to go by. It's just unbelievable. And there

(05:04):
is Bill Matthews, and he's gonna have a lot of
questions thrown in him and he's gonna have to give
some pretty good answers because I can't believe that this
is happening.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
Bill Matthews, scorekeeper, you're annoying. I don't know if this
is an unwritten rule or just be a decent human being.
You wait until you give up, until the picture gives
up the first legitimate hit, and then you could change
that to a second hit. That's the way baseball has
always been run since the beginning of time. This scorekeeper
had zero self awareness or some kind of a lack

(05:37):
of awareness. Yesterday, a couple weeks ago, Elie de la
Cruz tried to bunt to break up a no hitter,
another unwritten rule that would have gotten him a fastball
in the middle of his back the next at bat,
and it was just kind of ignored. There are just
things that are falling by the wayside. You know. The
rot begins with the lack of attention to detail. The

(05:58):
lack of attention to detail leads to little things then
that become bigger things. The scorekeeper yesterday with the Yankees
Elie de ra Cruz trying to bunt to break up
a no hitter. I'm beginning to see some very suspicious
stuff about the game that I grew up and loved.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
So the specific gripe or what's really annoying you is.

Speaker 4 (06:22):
Which everything I just talked about. The scorekeeper three innings
after the fact, changed an error into a hit to
break up a no hitter. Like I said, if it's
an unwritten rule or just being a decent guy, being
a good professional, you don't do that. You wait until

(06:42):
a hit is given up and then you rule it
as a second hit, and if the hit has never
given up, then you sit on it.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
Yeah. I don't think that's I don't understand any of it.

Speaker 2 (06:55):
And it's now it was the hit was in the
third inning, and then what was changed was in third et?

Speaker 3 (07:02):
When was it updated?

Speaker 4 (07:03):
What? Any uh sixth in name? Whatever?

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Yeah, I just I just don't understand the what's the
what's the word I'm looking for?

Speaker 3 (07:12):
I don't understand.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
The the timeframe and when you can't go back anymore?

Speaker 3 (07:18):
Why can you go back? That part doesn't make.

Speaker 2 (07:21):
Any sense to me? Does it make sense to you?
The statute of limitations? That's that's the expression I'm looking at.
Should there be a statute of limitations on changing an
error to a hit?

Speaker 4 (07:30):
Yeah, I mean we've seen this in the past, like
you know, hits have become errors or whatever. But like
there's just a time and a place, and during a
no hitter, when the no hits and when there's a
zero up on the scoreboard, that's not the time to
do it.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
No, completely completely agree, all right, what else annoying you?

Speaker 4 (07:47):
The best drama of the weekend in baseball? And this
has a lot to do with what I'm talking about.
The rot has entered the game. And this is a
great example. Jared Kellenick, I want to say, Collenick, collenic
he watched a ball hit off the wall in center

(08:09):
field and didn't run it out. So when he when
he tried to get a double, he was thrown out
in a tie game Saturday night. So he's watching the
ball sitting up there, pimping his shot. It hits off
the wall and he's thrown out at second base. And
a tie game. Nothing happens with the manager. Manager doesn't

(08:31):
call him in, doesn't call him down to the to
the hallway to give him any kind of admonishment. Nothing happens.
So somebody goes on Twitter, one of the reporters, yeah,
and says collenic watched the home run got thrown out
second base. This and the manager did nothing. Ronald Acuna

(08:52):
responded to that tweet, Ronald Acunya, who's resting or rehabbing
an injury, saying if I would have done that, I
would have been taken from the game.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
This.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
Brian Snitker, the manager of the Braves, has removed Akunya,
and he's removed marcel Osuna for a similar situation, and
he left the white guy in the game. Now, he
did say after the game that he didn't see him
pimp in the shot. Weird, weird dishonesty there. So you're

(09:26):
telling me you weren't watching your players.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
You weren't.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
I mean, a manager's view is right there. You should
know these things. So either he's guilty of not noticing
something that was obvious to everybody in the ballpark, or
he's lying.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
Yeah, so weird, Which one do you think? Which one
do you think is probably lying correct.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
It's dishonest to the core. I think the manager saw it.
Why did you not punish the white guy, but you
have punished the Latin guys in the past for the
same thing.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Look, I'm sure there's an explanation like, hey, we talked
about it and they've done it multiple times. But yeah,
that's a that's a weird one. And then to lie
about it or get caught lying about it.

Speaker 3 (10:13):
It doesn't pass the sniff test.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Doug Gottlieb
Show weekdays at three pm Eastern noon Pacific on Fox
Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 4 (10:26):
Logan Web is a starter for the Giants. Logan Webb
pitched this weekend and was having a conversation with the
media and the clubhouse after the game.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
Plum gardners and cons for at least four.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Oddings with sorry, four outings with hand strikeouts in the watch.
What is it we need to be in that list
with those guys? I'm sorry, sorry.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
Sports are always funny.

Speaker 4 (10:51):
I'm not gonna lie, so it's I just think it's
pretty immature. I mean, this guy's got to be in
his twenties. You would think that he would be over
like fart noises being funny. He's a professional.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
No chance.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
If there's anything that that I hate more than like
just immaturity, uh sophomoric humor. It's just like if there's
a if there's a disruption in the locker room and
someone brings attention to it. To me, that's just unacceptable.
You kind of need to grow up.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
Uh, it's it is annoying. I think that wins.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
I think the fact that some dude would just rip
ass in the locker room and show the other immaturity
of a major league baseball player, I definitely think is annoying.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
But but somebody.

Speaker 2 (11:46):
Rip snorting and not saying not saying my bad or
apologizing for it is equally bad that that behavior is annoying.

Speaker 5 (12:04):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (12:05):
Russell Westbrook said this after the Nuggets went on Saturday.

Speaker 5 (12:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
Yeah, my job is too.

Speaker 5 (12:13):
You know.

Speaker 4 (12:13):
They have dynamic girl that was Zoo and great cutters
and the guys that catch libs, and my job is
to be able to be the low man and find
ways to excuse my lake it go fux you.

Speaker 3 (12:23):
Up, that's uh. I mean. The thing about Russ is
he funcks it up for both teams. Right. It's not
always pretty, it's bizarre, but at least he's.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Honest about it. And that is the role of the
guard off the bench. Just come in and fox some
shit up, hopefully more for them than for us. Why
can you play for you because we can?

Speaker 3 (12:47):
All Right.
