America's Mayor Live (768): Yankees Baseball w/ Mayor Giuliani—2025 Wild Card Game 2, Yankees/RedSox
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
What's the implication of that?
Hmm.
Well, the Yankees, the Yankees are tied with the Red Sox, as you might imagine.
The score is 3-3.
We're in the top of the seventh inning, there is none out, and there's a runner on first base due to the walk given up by the starting pitcher Carlos Rodant, who has pitched, he has given up three runs, but I would say he's pitched a good game until he just did this.
Which is he threw a wild pitch, which moved the runner at first down to second base with no out.
Which might mean he's getting T I R E D. And Booney is standing at the infielders.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, you could you could um you could kind of blame that on the catcher, but I'm not sure.
That was very, very hard.
What I don't understand what he just did.
The umpire, the umpire just walked a guy.
Uh did he actually walk or did he put him on first base for some reason?
Oh, he hit him?
Yeah, which means he's losing he's losing control.
He almost hit him the time before on the wild pitch.
This is the right time, Booney.
So who's coming out of the bullpen?
He looks like a giant.
Eddie, what do you think the Red Sox are thinking with Rafaela coming up?
Weaver?
When is it first and second and crew's coming out?
Listen, listen for the name because I might you might get it before I see it.
You gotta make the defense.
The Yankee fans look very concerned and they look very angry.
They must be disagreeing with that last call.
I could have anything on.
I don't know what they're disagreeing with.
Was the guy hit or with a ball?
Two on, no well in the tie game.
I was telling you that black lives, they're they're having a little, you know, timeout right now.
And discussing things.
Um black lives matter is suing the Soros.
Well, one of Soros' main uh not-for-profit uh that funds uh all political efforts that uh uh designed to destroy the United States.
The Tides Foundation, you know, the DAs who let all the criminals out on the street, and uh the DAs who let all the rioters go free if they burn buildings, you gotta burn a building to go free.
Uh if you're a right-wing protester, you go to jail for the rest of your life.
Um so now black lives matter is suing them, is suing the Tides Foundation, which is almost all George Soros' money, and they're suing them.
What's the amount?
33.4 million, and they are saying that um they are saying that there was a great egregious mismanagement of its money.
Now, this has been around for a year.
Of course, nobody reported it.
But now Black Lives Matter, the communist organization.
Now, when I tell you that the Black Lives Matter is a communist organization, if you go read their literature, they will tell you they're a communist organization.
And unless the the now multi-millionaire Patrice Calors has become more dishonest, she she will say that she is a trained very expert Marxist.
And they were originally trained to create gender revolution as part of the Marxist plan to overthrow America.
And then when they saw, when they saw the opportunity with uh exploiting exploiting racial uh incidents, uh they took it because they made a lot of money that way.
Now we know that they have siphoned off a lot of their own money.
But now, now having having done that, having done that, uh the organization, and it's hard to know now who's running it because she sort of separated herself when she got caught buying a couple of those multi-million dollar houses for her and the other two.
I don't know that They're gender activists.
I don't know if it's transgender or gender.
I'm not an expert on all this stuff and don't particularly want to be.
I just learned what I have to.
But what happened is black lives matter.
Which plu which politically in California is probably a big deal, I would think, huh?
Right.
Yeah.
They went to see the Democrat Attorney General.
So I think the Democrat Attorney General, we should say, I can we can assume that's a political operative and not really an attorney general of a state that is not even American anymore.
And they are now want the Times Foundation to be investigated for violating for crimes.
And they claim that they actually have a particular situation where Soros' organization spent six million of their money.
Black Lives Matter money to pay the lawyers who were opposing their lawsuit.
You know, you're gonna ask me who's telling the truth between Black Lives Matter and a Soros organization.
You got a coin?
Black Lives Matter.
Soros.
I don't know.
I mean, I don't know what I would do as a judge.
You gotta judge credibility.
They're both lying, but one of them is probably right and one is wrong.
Right.
In any event, here's what it does do.
Not that the press will take it.
When they say um back back in 2020 and since then, there have been many, many reports, and we've put people on Andy No recently, but many, many, many others, that Soros was the main funder through these organizations, like uh the Tides Foundation, a couple of others.
He was the in 2020, it really he really had everything covered.
He was the main funder for Black Lives Matter for Antifa and for and for Hillary, and the Democratic Party in general.
I'm sorry, for Biden and the Democratic Party in general.
He also would put in like 55 or 60 DAs in places where he would have no interest other than to create chaos, uh, where uh the crime rates had gone up and they were like in Philadelphia, two years in a row of record uh homicide uh in Philadelphia under his under Krasner, his DA that he spent millions on uh to put him in office.
Um we and many others have told you that Soros was the main funder uh of that whole group that's really one group, which is why uh you you can go back and you can get pictures of all those people like Pelosi and Schumer and taking a knee on the cap in the Capitol, and oh come on.
And but the worst part is everybody who burned building down and killed people in the 2020 riots, that was some of the worst in the history of America.
Almost everyone, if not everyone, went free.
Right, even though people died.
That was all orchestrated by the fact that Soros had made sure Soros had made uh sure that uh he had his DAs in place, and they did the riots in places where the DAs were in place, so you can see there was some long-term planning going on there.
So now when they say that there's no connection between Black Lives Matter and George Soros, go get the papers in the case, and uh if they did commit some some kind of crime, maybe we can get both of them, right?
I mean, they're both uh extraordinarily anti-American stays in front.
Why?
Because there's a runner that could easily score from third.
They got lucky that ball didn't go far enough.
Who's playing first?
Who's playing first base for the Yankees?
I want to make sure.
He could have kept on going, he would have scored easy.
Well, in any event, was held up third base, put his head down instead of keeping his eyes.
Did the Red Sox score a run?
No.
Still three to three.
Anthony Rizzo, is he the first baseman?
Who?
Is Rizzo the first baseman?
But who's on first base tonight?
He's Grizzo's gone.
Against Cruz.
Goldschmidt.
Okay.
I'm surprised.
Gold Smith.
Let me make sure tonight's tonight's roster.
Most times Goldsmith would make that play.
I'm surprised.
Let me make sure.
It was a it was a career where story was as good a hitter as there was in the beast.
Yeah, it might be Ben Rice.
Well, if it is, that would make more sense.
Let me find out.
Goldsmith is almost flawless as a first baseman.
In an environment like this.
But the throw to first was um kind of a desperation throw.
There is two out.
It would have saved, you know, the possibility of a run, which we have now.
So I'm not I'm not faulting uh, I think it was Chisholm at second for throwing the ball.
And I'm not faulting him for throwing it low because he was on on the ground.
Rice, Ben Rice.
Yeah, I the first baseman should have caught that ball.
I and hit here's here's where you pay for this switching around.
So Ben Rice is also a catcher and a first baseman.
Most people that are both a catcher and a first baseman.
Maybe aren't good at either.
I'm not saying that about Ben, but I mean Wells picks it.
And he is definitely not the defensive first baseman that Goldsmith is who is one of the best.
And the Yankees have always prided themselves, and I can tell you a story from Joe Torrey about that.
On having great first baseman.
Oh my goodness, that was hit right to the now.
That ball was hit 390 to 400 feet.
And who somebody who is that that just came out?
That the pitcher?
He is excited.
That's my boy.
Look at him.
Look at him.
Well, first of all, it was a great catch in center field.
But what I'd like to point out to you, in about half the stadiums in baseball, the score would now be how many runners did the Red Sox have on?
Bases were loaded.
The Red Sox had a four runs.
I don't know.
We'd have to go look at City Field.
City Field they made pretty deep.
Um the old some of the old stadiums were real like old days in Ebbett's Field.
Uh in Fenway.
Fenway's weird.
See, Fenway is the opposite of Yankee Stadium.
Yankee Stadium is ridiculous.
Starting at about um well, starting at about halfway from the right foul pole, it goes out like that to 400 and something feet at dead center.
And it becomes 430 feet.
Used to be longer than that.
And then it comes back, but very, very uh very much of an impossible home run for a right-handed hitter, unless you pull it right down the foul pole.
Because it comes all the way in.
So what I'm telling you is that that shot was in uh what used to be called Death Valley.
And um, there's even more of a death valley if you start moving out from center to left because it goes like that instead of like this.
Goes like that, and then it comes back.
Now you say to me, why?
Why was it organized like that?
Yankees built Yankee Stadium right after they acquired somebody from the Red Sox.
And they built it to make it much easier for him to hit home runs because they had decided they weren't gonna do what the Red Sox did.
They weren't gonna use this gentleman as a pitcher and a hitter.
That uh they had a lot of pitchers, and it wasn't that he wasn't a great he was not only was he a good pitcher, he was one of the best pitchers in baseball at the time.
But he also that took him out of the lineup.
He had they had arrest him.
I don't know how many home runs he ever had before he came to nothing near the 40 and the 50, and then the 60, they would hit fifth hit for the Yankees.
The Yankees decided, forget it.
Let him play, let him play right field and let him hit.
And he became the greatest player in the history of baseball.
Babe Bruce.
The Red Sox had won three world championships with him.
After they traded him, they had they didn't win another one in that century.
They finally won one in 2004, which, you know, almost turned around the whole thing because they've won four now.
And the Yankees.
The Yankees have won one.
As we go back, the Red Sox were one of the best teams in baseball when they traded Babe Bruce.
They had won like four or five of the first 13 World Series.
And then saved a run by diving.
You see the play I'm talking about, right, Ted?
And then run likely should have scored.
No way a first baseman doesn't make that.
First base coach, Jose Flores, at that point waving, eating in from third.
Ball got to him late.
That's a that was a bad throw from second, too.
There's no such thing as a bad throw by an infielder.
That you can get your glove on.
If you can get your glove on, you're supposed to catch it.
That's what you're there for, and that's why you get paid a couple million dollars.
You're not there to just catch it when they throw it up here like that.
I used to play first base too when I was injured, and I was very good first base.
I was taught by a terrific coach.
I was taught right from day one.
Boy, that's that's the most important thing.
You know, I wish I had learned golf when I was that age, like my son did.
But I can I I I have at times uh you know, stop and watch kids playing, and I give them lessons on how to play first base.
What a job.
One of the things they don't one of the things they get nervous about youngsters when they play first base for the first time, they want to make sure they can put their foot on the bag, right?
So so they lock themselves.
So when the throw's gonna come to them, they put their foot on the bag so they don't miss it.
Now, what you've just done is lock your body, depending on where you put your foot on the bag to about half of the circumference you can have in covering it.
If you straddle the bag, you you you put the bag like a V in the middle of your two feet.
Now, you have to have practice over and over again.
So it's muscle memory as to where the bag is.
So you relieved yourself of the fear, am I gonna kick back and get that bag?
And I I look at professional first baseman, and um I don't remember them ever not kicking back.
Once you learn it, you become so much better as a first baseman.
You've been kind of unlocked.
And of course, then some are in the Stratusfield, like goes.
The catch that he had to make there, uh you can't fault them completely with a tough catch.
On the other hand, that's why you have a great first baseman.
And the first baseman, um there's certain positions where you've got to give a little more deference to defense than offense.
If you can have both fabulous catcher, twice.
How much does that catcher touches every confidence?
Virtually touches or almost touches every pitch in the game.
So if he can't catch, you're in deep trouble.
Also, if he can't handle a pitcher, you're in deep trouble.
Because pitchers need help almost by definition.
So he's he's a critical, he's critical of your defense.
I mean, you can have 10 past balls and games over.
And he's got to be able to catch with one hand.
His better hand's got to be ready to go.
He's got to be able to scoop it out of the dirt, he's got to be able to backhand it.
And the better he is, your defense now starts to be really good.
And if he can throw people out, that's a tremendous advantage.
Now you gotta think about what else is important.
Many people would say since most balls are hit up the middle.
It's it's the uh short stop.
That particular pitch, especially in left-handed batteries, is so good because it too to get a swing and a miss.
But the shortstop, 91 strikeouts during the regular.
The third baseman and the second baseman, they're only as good as the first baseman.
When the Yankees set the record for the uh for the longest streak of no errors in the infield.
The first thing Arod did is credit baseball.
He's credited the Yankee first basement.
And I'm gonna remember I don't want to remember who it was at the time.
He said we wouldn't have this.
You can't imagine how many of my throws he straightened out.
He straightened out a lot of Jeta's throws, too.
This one is pulled.
It's gonna be fair.
Oh man, he was going for that corner.
Head to second base.
Here's the throw.
And he is in there with a double.
Oh.
And that's big.
Scoring position with one out.
He hooked one foul into the stands, and then he delivers the double.
And we're at the seventh inning.
Bottom of the we only have two more innings.
To go round in 2017, and then Boston picked him up in the rule for Ben 2020.
Questionable.
For the Yankees this year.
He had now he had just tried a he had just tried uh to hit that and fourth cave the PCs.
He's at second.
And now Judge is at the plate.
And this is the moment for Mr. Judge.
Mr. Judge is uh two out of three tonight, but they're all singles.
The Yankees don't pay him 40 billion a year.
Hit singles.
They pay him to hit home runs.
He is the best player in baseball, bar nine.
50 home runs again this year.
For some reason, the playoffs elude him.
He is at best an average playoff player.
And he's now at a moment where he could break this game open.
A single, of course, would it would put him put him ahead by one.
But hitting the ball, 430 feet, which he can do at 120 miles an hour.
Is what he's up there for.
So we'll see.
It's all win two, and they just struck him out.
Oh this has been this has been the playoff life of Aaron Judge, who I love.
But it there's a there's a uh he's two out of three tonight, but they're all singles.
If he were oh for three tonight, this is the time you got a hit.
This is the Reggie Jackson moment, the Mickey Manual moment, the Yogi Berra moment.
I mentioned Yogi Berra because if you follow the Yankees in those periods of time, there are many people who would tell you that Yogi Berra was even more of a clutch hitter than Mickey Man.
The reason is he was a bad ball hitter.
You couldn't pitch around him showed up and he went away.
When they when they uh interviewed um the Dodger pitchers, Don Newcomb, I think, was the one that was being interviewed after his career was over.
A Hall of Fame Dodger pitcher, you know, one of the great Dodger pitchers there in the Brooklyn era.
They asked him uh the Yankees, and he had terrible trouble with the Yankees.
You know, strange.
I mean, here's a Hall of Famer, their best pitcher.
And the Dodgers had, you know, play the Yankees.
They won only one World Series, but they played in the 4-3, 4-2 World Series.
While the pitchers would be very tough on the Yankees.
But Newcomb, the Yankees beat just about every time.
So when he was being interviewed, they asked him who was the toughest one to face.
I mean, you must have been I mean, Mannel.
God Manel must have been really tough.
He looked, he looked, he looked at the reporter, and he looked ballinger to fall.
A little catcher.
You mean Yogi Berra?
I couldn't get that guy out.
And it's true.
Under Newcomb were winning a game six-nothing.
The Yankees came back and scored seven runs against one of them was a one of them was a uh uh basis loaded home run by Yogi Berra in Ebbage Field.
Yogi Barra actually I never saw this, and I think this is Hokum.
But they say he used to hit he hit a home run once with a ball that bounced in front of the plate.
You couldn't pitch around him.
What that meant was if it weren't important, he would he'd let you pitch around him or take a walk.
But if it was important, he wouldn't let you walk.
He'd find a way if you threw it up high to hit it.
If you threw it low to hit it.
He was a frightening, he was a frightening presence, particularly during the 50s when he was in his prime.
In the 60s, he still could play, but he was starting to fade out.
He started to be an outfielder.
Well, we're gonna take a short uh break, and when we come back, we're gonna we're gonna discuss something um sort of uh philosophical and theological, and that's forgiveness.
We'll be right back.
U.S. Army Major Scott Smiley paid a high price serving our nation.
Scott was leading his platoon in Iraq when a blast sent shrapnel through his eyes, leaving him blind and temporally paralyzed.

Well, when I talked about forgiveness, of course, he realized this whole issue has been brought up because of the very, very uh beautiful and moving uh uh eulogy given by Erica Kirk for her husband uh Charlie Kirk at the memorial service uh a week and a half Ago.
And uh during during the serve during the speech, of course, there were many, many riveting moments.
But maybe for many, the uh the most was uh her forgiving the murderer, and uh let's play her words rather than my reading her words, because this will almost exactly describe what Christians have been taught by Jesus Christ,
Father, forgive them for they not know what they do that man, that young man, I forgive him.
*applauds*
Well, today in the Wall Street Journal, uh William A. Goldston wrote a very uh thoughtful and very uh uh useful analysis of forgiveness, being that today, and we wish everyone who is Jewish, or anyone who wants to participate, a very holy Yom Kippur.
So today is Yom Kippur.
Now, Yom Kippur is called the Day of Atonement.
It is um, I would describe it as mass confession.
Um, but if if you are a practicing uh Jew, uh you've got to examine your conscience, you've got to uh go over all the things you did wrong, and you have to ask uh God for forgiveness.
Uh but um you're not you're and God can forgive you if if you are truly repentant.
So that's the same really as confession.
In the sacrament of confession, you have to uh personally recite your sins to uh uh the representative of Jesus on earth, which is the priest, who Jesus gave the power to forgive twice, or not twice, if it's in it's in several of the gospels, recite it a little differently.
Sounds like it might be two different times.
Well, actually, he did do it twice.
He reiterated it, he reiterated it after his resurrection.
Um the the significant thing being uh what you what you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven, and what you bind on earth will be bound in heaven.
He gave that power when I think it was the time that he named Peter as the head of the church, as the rock on which he built his church, the other disciples, as well as Peter, he gave them the power to forgive or not sins.
So in the Catholic tradition, uh you have to confess your sins to the person that Jesus gave the power to to forgive you, and but it's just not confess him, and he forgives you.
Te absolvo was the words used at the end of a confession.
We used to do it in Latin.
The priest would listen to your confession.
You would say, Father, forgive me for I have sinned.
These are the things I haven't gone to confession in three weeks or four weeks or 25 years, and these are the sins that I've committed.
And you you have to do you have to, in order, in order for for you to be absolved, you have to have honestly recited to him the ones you can remember the approximate number of times, and you have to make a you have to explain to him that you've resolved not to do this again.
You're gonna try your very best not to do this again.
At that point, he'll give you a penance, Might be if it's fairly minor, maybe say, you know, five our fathers and five Hail Marys or light a candle or say a prayer to the Blessed Mother.
Um, if it's a long one, he may tell you to say the rosary.
And then he will recite a prayer, and then he will end it by blessing you and saying, Te absolvo, you are absolved.
Now, he doesn't really know if you're absolved, because ultimately he's just an intermediary.
It's between you and God.
You're absolved if you really have vowed not to do it again.
If you went in there and said, hey, I stole you know three things from the grocery store.
Well, the priest might ask you, you're gonna do it again?
Absolutely not, Father.
But if you're saying to yourself, yeah, I'm going right out and doing it.
The priest is an intermediary, but this is where the Jews and the Christians are the same.
It's really between you and God.
So tonight in the synagogue, uh Jewish people go and they personally recite to God, not necessarily to the rabbi, the sins they committed over the last year, and they will be forgiven by God for those sins if they have made a legitimate effort to vow not to do it again.
Now, it doesn't mean that they won't do it again, they're human.
God understands that, they're sinners, but it can't be, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Very important.
Now, here's the point that Goldstone is making.
For for Christians, that seems to be enough.
But uh, under under the Jewish tradition, you may be forgiven by God, but you're not forgiven by the person you wrong.
Let's say you beat the hell out of somebody.
You say, Father, I beat this man up for no reason.
I don't know, I thought he was flirting with my girlfriend, and I beat him up.
And I realize that that was wrong, and I'm never gonna do it again.
As a as a Christian, you're forgiven by God as a Jew.
Now, here's where the Jewish tradition makes a different distinction.
Are you forgiven by the person who you wronged?
Uh-uh.
Not unless you go and explain to him what you did, and explain to him how you're never gonna do it again.
So he he would say, you know, following on Erica's uh beautiful statement, uh the murderer has to confess, and has to vow that he'll never do it again and ask for her forgiveness.
Interesting, interesting distinction.
The only thing that you've got to square that with now, because he does, he does kind of uh he does kind of uh take a teeny shot at Trump.
He says that her, that after she said that, the president responded by saying he did not hate his opponents, meaning Charlie.
He wanted the best for them.
That's where I disagreed with Charlie.
I hate my opponent, I don't want the best for them.
I can't stand my opponent.
So I remember Ed Koch, who was Jewish.
Ed Koch had the following rule.
I'm not gonna hurt anybody unless they hurt me.
If it hurt me, I'm gonna hurt them five times as bad as they hurt me.
Isn't that the rule of the state of Israel?
If you attack us, you you won't know what's gonna happen to you after we come back at you, in order in order to keep themselves alive, right?
So somehow, William.
And I'm not I'm not being contrary here, I'm just raising this as a question.
How do we square that with the biblical eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth?
That's also in the Bible, as well as what has worked out as the Yom Kippur tradition.
So which is it?
I'm gonna make a suggestion.
I mean, it is how you interpret it, right?
Legitimately interpret it.
You do some kind of half-assed interpretation, it's not valid of the Bible or the Quran or whatever.
This occurs to me because the Quran has all of these things that are h horrible in it.
You know, I kill Jews and kill pagans and kill infidels and um Muhammad killing lots of people.
Well, I think what William is telling us that the j Jewish tradition has emerged from an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
And the tr tradition now is to forgive and to obtain that forgiveness for the person that you wronged.
I think now.
This is um what we're talking about here both among Jews and Christians is the ideal.
And it's good that we have these ideals.
The Muslims don't.
Unless unless they can read out Mohammed.
See, they have to sort of like take him out.
He taught them vicious horrible things.
And he was a vicious, horrible person.
Moses wasn't, and Jesus wasn't, and the great prophets of Judaism and Christianity weren't.
They were human, some of them were sinners, but they weren't evil people who killed mass numbers of Jews and mass numbers of Arabs and mass numbers of Christians and others in order to take their property, which is what Mohammed did.
Sorry.
That's what he did.
So this I think this is a great starting point for it is true that we kind of ignore some of the things in our tradition that are brutal.
Well, they have to do that.
But you got to acknowledge that you're doing it.
So that you can separate yourself from the murders and the maniacs and that are using that as l legitimate tithing, if that's a word.
Looking at Ted, but I think he's looking at the game.
I'm looking at the game too.
It's still three-three, and the Yankees have two people in the bullpen, and I don't know if they have anybody on base.
They do have two outs.
Is that Chisholm at the plate?
I think so.
With that short right field porch, Chisholm's gotta have about 32 home runs.
Oh my that's smart for his career.
Ah, trying to stay healthy.
That was a smart move.
There's two out.
It's a lefty against a left, no, it's a righty against a lefty, which is dangerous in Yankee State.
The guy's a home run hitter, contact hitter, home run hitter.
He could put the Yankees ahead in the top of the in the bottom of the eighties going into the ninth inning.
And uh there are two out, so we walked him.
That was very smart.
Now they may bring in a lefty.
Let's see.
That wells coming up.
At farmers, we offer both quality insurance and rape for it.
I I'm I'd bring a left-handed picture in the pitch to Wells.
I don't want to give the Red Sox, don't listen to me, Red Sox.
Why do I have to be such a smart ass?
I think you gotta keep the righty on the mound.
Last September Whitlock went to.
I think this is this may be delivering the ball into the into the uh right field corner.
Cora's a very smart manager.
I mean, I have great respect for him, except that he cheats.
He's the guy that was behind the Astros cheating.
And he wouldn't go see Trump.
So you have to root for the Yankees.
The Yankees love Trump.
And Trump loves the Yankees.
George Steinbrenner was one of his best friends.
If if he's not watching this game, I'll eat my hat.
Where's my hat?
No hat.
They're damaged tonight.
Gotta get you a Yankees hat.
I told you I'd try to find one around here, but uh, find one.
Well, you're too valuable.
I mean, I would tell you, go out and ask for you might not come back.
Yeah.
I'll take you with me.
Ah, the Red Sox.
See, they're not cheating for you tonight.
Like they did last night.
They were cheating for him.
Not a special.
Well, what do you do here?
Two outs.
Pretty big leg kick.
Die on first.
You just gotta hit the ball, right?
Hit a hit far.
He's he's he's looking for one thing here.
He's looking for a home run, my friend.
Wells is a home run that actually Wells doesn't hit, he just hits home runs.
If he makes contact, he'll be right back.
That's like somebody else you were talking about.
Oh no, no, catfish hunter only threw what was it?
You said something about Catfish Hunter.
I said uh there was a play there's a playoff game between the Yankees and the Kansas City Royals, and the Royals scored three runs.
All of them were home runs.
Single, no nobody on base.
And as soon as he gave up the home run, he would strike an ex guy out.
And the Yankees won four to three.
But that's the that's what uh our friend there.
Um that's what our friend our friend Rodon had had to learn.
And it seemed like he unlearned it for one batter.
And I would say this is why the manager is so good.
The manager knew to go out there and say to him, Carlos, haven't we gone through this?
Forget it.
Just because he gave up a home run doesn't mean you should walk somebody.
Come on.
He is resting.
Uh multiple innings these guys are professionals like you are.
you're going to give up home runs.
Sandy Koufax gave up home runs.
Not a lot, but he did.
So look at that little girl in the Yankee uniform.
Show it to my daughter.
Oh, and this guy, look how serious this guy is.
Man, do I ooh, I miss going there.
Ted.
I miss being in my seats.
Oh, we gotta go.
Now the seats I'm talking about, I used to be uh are are are some people watching this, do you think?
Yeah.
So I'll tell you where myone sees.
My last group of seats, after I was mayor, I bought my own seats.
And they were well.
Oh my goodness, this is gonna be this is gonna be gonna be interesting.
He's coming in, he's coming in.
He's coming in, he's safe.
Did they get him?
No, he's in.
They scored.
He scored.
I thought I thought the umpire called him out, Ted.
All the way from first.
I'm used to the umpires cheating for the Red Sox.
Recently, anyway.
You know, people will say the uh the exact opposite about the Yankees.
It isn't true.
No, they never cheat for the Yankees.
The Yankees are too good.
They're trying to even things up.
That's huge, Mayor.
But you like you said, you want to get more than one run, more than a one run cushion.
That was a good call on the part of the third base uh coach.
He makes that call.
Watch this.
It's in the corner.
Able to go with two outs.
That's a beautiful throw, by the way.
Oh man.
That's about as close as it gets.
That's about as close as it gets.
He just missed that tag by an inch.
The Red Sox are reputed to have the best outfield in baseball.
And twice tonight, it failed.
But did it fail?
I mean, I don't know if you could have made that throw any better.
I don't know if anybody in baseball would have made that throw any better.
And then the uh the judge was the judge hit.
That was here.
Watch it.
Oh, that's that's different.
There's a second.
So who came in on the run?
Chisholm.
Who's fast?
He came in all the way from first.
And so was that the first was that the third base coach Louis Rojas who sent him around?
The third base coach makes the choice because the runner can't see.
Runner can't see behind him.
And if he turns around, he's gonna lose a step, right?
So you gotta live with that third base.
There was a third base coach that the Yankees had.
1980 or something.
He brought a guy in and Steinberg fire fired him.
I thought that I love George.
He was a very good friend of mine.
And I absolutely love George.
I thought that was a little harsh.
I mean that could have gone wrong.
Still the guy made the right decision.
That's hard to understand, right?
You gotta understand baseball to understand that.
And you gotta understand life to understand it.
There are decisions that you make, they're the right decisions, and they just don't work out.
You can't be afraid to make them.
I mean, if the guy at third base is going like this, what am I gonna do?
Is the boss gonna get angry at me?
Yeah, I don't know what to do.
Poor runners coming in.
What hey, jerk, give me a signal.
It's the point that Pete Hedickset made yesterday.
We talked about the impact of Javs Jill.
Point that he made yesterday.
We don't need a bunch of, we don't need a bunch of Vasslickers.
Or generals.
Those stars mean that you're commanders.
Warriors, killers.
killers to save decent innocent people.
Well so now it's four to three.
This is this is a this is a situation there where when I was mayor, I was blessed with something.
What was I blessed with?
Mariano Rivera.
Now, if this were 199 to 2001, I would be certain that we were gonna win this game.
I would very much like to have the extra run.
Even Mariano needs a little a little um cushion.
But I I would say nine times out of ten, he's gonna come out of that bullpen.
It'd be three up and three down.
He's got without any doubt.
It's like off the charts with the next person behind him, the best record of the playoffs.
The least number of runs given up.
Lowest batting averages, almost no home runs.
Even when they beat him, they beat him on cheap little hits.
Of course, the one that he probably regrets the most is 2001.
And there wasn't a single legitimate hit until the very end.
He even made an error.
That guy likes sports now.
Throwing the Gecko was just a good one.
And he was probably Mariano Rivera was probably one of the best fielding pitchers in baseball.
Not sure he won a gold glove, because I don't know, they sort of get stupid with with um with closers.
They might say he didn't have enough innings or whatever, but he was a great fielder.
Always wanted to play center field in one game.
And the Yankees would never let him do it because they were afraid he'd injure himself.
Of course, one time he did injure himself, because he used to go work out with the outfielders.
And it's the only time he ever was injured, he lost the whole season because he like broke an ankle or something.
Shagging five balls.
You've got to know Mariano Rivera also to know what a wonderful Christian beautiful man he is.
You know, the last time David Wells came to Yankee Stadium.
Was it Wells?
Not Wells.
Oh, I'll get this one right.
I'm gonna have this one wrong if I I don't want to get it wrong.
I want to get it just right.
I'm being distracted by the game here.
So I don't know who the Red Sox brought in, but they made the made the correct decision to bring in a left-handed pitch in to neutral buys.
They are loaded right now for Trent Christian.
Trent Grisham, who is a home run here.
34 home runs.
Um the other way.
He gets a hole, he he gets his bet on the ball and pulls it.
The game is gonna be uh three more runs.
And um but this is the this is the Yankee strength and the Yankee weakness.
They're built around left-handed pitching.
Why?
Because that porch is right there.
But then they are vulnerable to left-handed pitchers, which is why the Red Sox started a left-handed pitcher tonight and last night.
It's also why the Yankees started a left-handed pitcher last night and tonight, because the Red Sox are vulnerable to left-handed pitching, but not quite as much as the Yankees.
The Yankees are more of a left-handed hitting team than the Red Sox.
But they're also a much more of a power hitting team than the Red Sox.
The Yankees led baseball in home lens, and Red Sox flight ten or eleven.
They were down at 10 or 11.
They're much where they where they compare very, very well to the Yankees and chat and challenge them, is uh their starting pitching.
They've got three terrific starting pitchers.
The Yankees have three terrific starting pitchers.
The third one we'll see tomorrow night.
But um their third starting pitcher Colito is injured.
Which is why the Yankees won't.
Of course, they want this game to stay in it, but when the Red Sox won last night, they had a tremendous advantage.
Should the Yankees win tonight, they will have an advantage.
Because the pitcher tomorrow night for the Yankees is their star rookie.
Now that's always a question.
Comes from Massachusetts.
And Colito, the guy they were gonna start, is on the injured reserve.
This should end the inning.
Base is loaded.
I believe they had two outs.
Yeah, there were two outs.
Well now we're not now we're in the ninth inning.
So this will determine the game.
And here's here's uh get nervous at all?
Here, me nervous, I never get nervous.
I just get angry.
Um I played baseball so much that I can't say that.
I do get nervous sometimes with baseball games, even more than football games, because of the delays.
The in be the in-between innings are tough.
Yeah.
And I I'm not a I'm I don't object to the fact that they're long because I I as you can see, I love the strategy of it.
And so this Mickey Cheryl, who's running in New Jersey, she should really drop out.
This lady cheated in the uh Naval Academy.
She cheated on her exam in the Naval Academy.
There's no doubt about it.
They didn't let her graduate with her class.
She says they didn't let her graduate the class because she wouldn't rat out her her uh her classmates.
What is she?
Mafia.
That's that's and I don't know about the Naval Academy.
What the hell are they doing?
They they they enforcing the rules of Omerta.
She wouldn't rat out her her.
But here's the ultimate question that she's avoiding, like the phony left-wing scoundrel that she is.
She cheated.
She got the exam beforehand, then took the exam.
I don't know why the hell they made her a naval officer, largely because a whole percentage of the class did it, and then have to get they have no class.
I don't know what percentage it was, but it might have been 60, it might have been 70% that got the exam online beforehand.
And despite all of the preaching and about honor and this class didn't have much honor.
And she had no honor.
Also, I mean, she's a perfect Democrat because her fellow cadets she's not gonna rat on him.
Sounds like she must be uh I mean, those are the rules of the Mafia.
Aren't the rules of legitimate decent society?
And aren't aren't you as a cadet?
Wild card series.
If some if another cadet commits a crime, you don't want him as an officer in the United States Navy.
Beyond that, here's the new one.
In the last.
Net worth went up seven million in a stock flip.
Bednar's first pitch misses.
And she said she never traded.
She's the wealthiest.
In 2019, her net worth was 730,000.
Now it's uh 14 million.
And uh she's the wealthiest uh Congress person from New Jersey.
She also, you might remember.
But let's go back to the game.
They're back, they're back on, and it's the ninth inning.
There's no outs, and it's a two it's uh two and one count.
Tremendous defensive player, but he also has some punch.
And we'll get we'll get into our coverage here.
And then when we're finished, we want you to go over to Lindell TV and watch Dr. Maria.
Two-two count.
Zero out two-two count.
He swung and missed.
Well, you go ahead.
I'm gonna I'm looking something up.
Uses his curve ball to get strikes when he needs to.
Top of the ninth Yankees up to finish up lefties when he's trying to strike him out.
Uh Yankees up four to three.
Two innings, just two hits and no runs.
Getting the first out in a situation like this is extraordinarily important.
And his uh lack of control of the strike zone is really troubling me.
Um I don't know that why don't we have a better relief pitcher than this?
Truck him out.
Well, maybe I should keep my big mouth shut.
That's David Bednar.
Uh he only can't he only came along.
He only came along toward the end of the year.
The Yankees got him from the Pirates.
The Yankees had traded for the guy the guy was the best to avoid another uh release pitcher in baseball.
And um strike one to Duran.
Yeah, series in which Robert stole second, they ended up.
They're traders are the best relief pitcher in baseball deficit, but no, and he got injured first to get Hamilton in the game, and that was Devin Williams.
Devin Williams was supposed to be there doing the closing from the same Pittsburgh Pirates that he came from, Bednar.
Bednar was gonna be the setup man, and Williams was gonna be the closer, the Mariano Rivera, and he was dominant.
He comes to Yankee Stadium, he's got like a five or a six-arn run average every once in a while.
He comes in and he's brilliant, and every once in a while he comes in and he gets beaten up like and no one knows why.
All season.
Now he's at one and two on this battery.
He's throwing his heart out.
Uh Bednar is.
I mean, he's I don't know if we can see the gun here, Ted, but he's thrown, he's throwing it as hard as he's capable of throwing it, but he's losing a strike zone a bit.
And when you lose the strike zone, you don't fool hitters as much.
The point is when you've got a two strikes on a guy, you want to strike him out on a ball that looks like a strike.
That's the pitch.
Oh, the umpire could have given that one to him.
He could have given him that one.
It broke low.
Uh I'd like to see if our catcher framed it correctly.
ballpark.
Now we fouled one off.
That was a very, very quick swing.
Four town protecting the plate.
Durant, of course, involved in one of the key.
So what do you throw here?
Remember, it's only you gotta throw a strike.
I mean, you don't have a lot of choices, it's three-two.
You don't want to walk him.
He is a left-handed hitter.
You gotta still be a little careful because that porch is right there.
Struck him out.
Oh my goodness.
Wow, is that the case?
Now Ted, I don't understand that.
This is a major league hitter who just fouled off some great pitches.
That ball was right over the middle of the plate.
How were you not swinging at that?
Look at watch the pitch.
On the inside part of the plate, just the wrong arm.
You know how sometimes, you know how sometimes there's well, it's a little bit gotta tell you, it's a little bit on the inside corner, isn't it?
It made it uh a l according to the the rectangle.
According to the rectangle, it made it, but it maybe it was a more deceptive pitch than I thought.
You know, the ball goes so fast when you're watching it on television.
I used to sit right there.
So he went, he went.
That's a strike.
Yeah, I used to sit, you see you see the guy in the red shirt back there right behind the catcher.
I used to sit in the seat right on top of him.
And why did I sit on the seat right on top of him?
Because I could see the catcher back.
See, the fur these guys in the first row.
There's a little bit of a you get in the second row right back.
See where the red got red shirt is there, Ted.
See the red shirt?
Yep.
Go over about three, and that's where I would be.
That's all right.
It's over.
We go to a game three.
Boy, these teams are unbelievable.
You know, Ted.
I know young people like my my son, and he as he's grown up, he's changed a lot.
My son used to real, real not like Mets and Jeds.
What a difference tonight makes.
I really like all the New York teams, and I love the anchors.
Oh, thank you.
And you know I like the Red Sox.
I'm not one of these people.
I respect them.
First of all, the last 20 years have been better than that.
Shut the door down.
Three innings, just two hits.
I mean, if I were Boone, I would copy what Cora does, except when he cheeks.
That one to the wall.
And I would go to the White House.
Right.
But the lefties were I'm gonna tell you the last couple of things here that are really important.
Um, make sure you're bigger than a lot of jazz to first as he was on the move.
That is that 50% of the illegal aliens in the twin cities.
This was a survey of 2,000 done by an independent group.
50% committing fraud, major fraud of one kind or another.
And a lot of it is Schumer, Schumer collecting health insurance.
Today Schumer came on and said the president was a liar by saying that.
I don't know how Schumer has the gall to even go on television.
Thank you.
Turns on his own people.
Well, take a look at that.
50% of the illegal aliens are committing significant fraud.
And a lot of it is health insurance, but usually health insurance and three or four other things.
And in the Twin Cities in in um in Tampon Tim State, he'll give you health insurance.
Uh they they they um discovered in Florida a guy with a New York license.
You know, the license you carry around, right?
With no name on it.
New York gives out licenses to illegals with no name on it.
How would you, as a clerk in the Motor Vehicle Bureau, end up giving somebody a li.
Suppose you walk in and say, I want a driver's license.
I'm not gonna tell you my name.
Now I uh now according to this uh uh um when when Florida caught this guy and turned him over to the immigration service to throw him out of the country, they contacted New York because they thought that it was a fraudulent license.
No, it was actually uh it was actually issued, and the clerk explained we do issue licenses uh to um uh to refugees or they have some other name for them.
Um, the legal name for them under the statute is illegal aliens.
So you can get euphemistic as you want or communistic as you want, they're illegal aliens, but and New York gives the illegal they they won't give you as a citizen a license with no name on it, but if you're an illegal alien from Venezuela, you'll get one, which is why they kill so many people when they're driving along the highways.
They had a whole city in Ohio where they had to send in the National Guard because people were getting killed left and right or hit left and right by these guys from Haiti who didn't know how to drive, but they were given licenses without taking a driving test.
We got people driving major trucks without taking a driving test.
Even if you're gonna give an illegal a license, what's why don't they take a driving test?
Why why would you assume that if you're an illegal alien, you have an innate ability not to drive.
I don't think people realize how insane the Democratic Party has become.
And you know, we keep saying it, and they probably look at us like we're exaggerating.
What I just told you is 100% true.
The guy has a no-name license.
Who would give it to him, except in a state that's completely lawless?
Uh let's get you up to date on what's going on with the whole issue of trans gender, okay.
Fairfax County refuses to arrest a guy who is a serial pedophile and sex offender who was caught going into a girl's bathroom, and they declined prosecution a year ago.
And recently, the adjust the the uh county over from them has prosecuted him for what he did there.
But Fairfax County in Virginia, run by Democrats, won't prosecute him.
And the board is directing the prosecutor not to do it.
So 10 days ago, they discovered that this guy, the sex abuser, had a um, they found a uh uh a whole list of the schedule for the girl, young girls' swimming team at a local pool where he would show up and put himself in the bathroom and abuse some of them.
So they represented it to the Democrats in Fairfax County to prosecute them again, and again they refused to do it.
The governor or this uh attorney general has now taken over and is asking for legislation.
I think it's a Republican legislature, certainly a Republican governor who supports this.
They're asking for legislation that the attorney general in these situations can take over and prosecute the case.
Now, these are people from Virginia tell me uh tell me why they wouldn't prosecute a guy that goes into a little girl's bathroom.
Where's the where's the sympathy?
Where's the forget sympathy?
Where's the protection of young children?
Maybe he can have sympathy for the guy.
I don't know.
Go get him treated.
And but but don't let him out until he's not gonna hurt my daughter or granddaughter or yours.
Don't they just completely lack common sense?
You see, you're surprised by no, you're not, I shouldn't say that.
A lot of you are really, really smart.
A lot of people are surprised by that, and they say, I don't understand.
I'm the Democrats are like this.
I do.
It's Marxism.
Every single thing I'm talking about, you'll find in Karl Marx, including breaking breaking down the morality of a country.
Easier to take over.
I'm gonna save this for tomorrow night because a terrific, terrific analysis has been done about how anti-Semitism is really an epidemic.
Not just in this country, in Europe.
And we we we we know what happened the last time we were warned of that.
And now we have a major political party in the United States that's supporting the epidemic.
They're literally supporting the people that are behind the epidemic.
So this requires a little more, a little more um a little more analysis.
I just want to mention it uh to you.
And um the the reality is that this transgender issue, uh, men playing in women's sports, even worse than that, perverts going into women's bathrooms, the dispute now between Emma Watson and J.K. Rawlings.
I mean, Emma Watson repeats the lines, and she's still probably 14 years old in her head, and J.K. Rawlings has written some of the most successful novels of the of the 20th and 21st century.
Yeah.
And she stands for a very, very, very, very controversial proposition that a man is a man and a woman is a woman.
And you don't get to, you don't get to define it.
God defines it when he decides what you are, and then there's a pretty damn good indication of it sticking on your body.
So this guy in Fairfax County, I got it, and Fairfax County, this guy's name is Richard Cox.
He's 58 years old, he's a registered sex offender.
He's allegedly exposed themselves a little girls and women in the girls' locker room, but he's got a history of it.
He was also found with child pornography and a schedule of girls' slim classes scheduled at Fairfax County rec centers on his phone.
However, a Democratic majority board who oversees the cops, has no plans to charge Cox for his visits to three rec centers where children were present.
He was arrested in Arlington County for what he did there.
But Arlington County would like to support a Fairfax County.
They ain't getting it.
Ain't gonna happen.
Where for the where for the sex offender, says Fairfax County.
We're Democrats.
We protect sex offenders.
You're Republicans, you just protect children.
You're Nazis.
Footage shows Cox leaving Fairfax County, our special harbor spray park, a water park designed for young disabled kids.
What's this guy doing hanging around a park for disabled kids?
This is sick.
You want to take these guys from Fairfax County where you want to go like this.
He's identified as a transgender woman.
How many people have they shot in the last couple of years?
Right.
I mean, that's the question that Charlie was asked when they assassinated him.
Yeah.
I mean, it still bothers me that those two things were happened at the same time.
I told you, as a as an investigator, a prosecutor.
Every coincidence bothers me until I resolve it and I get the answer to it.
Nobody's resolved that for me.
Last week it was revealed that he's got the swimming schedules on his phone of all the girls' pools.
And they still wouldn't prosecute.
Virginia Attorney General Jason Mayeras said that Cox was hunting girls in Fairfax.
And he's now asking for uh state law that would allow him to prosecute the sex crimes that local prosecutors won't.
Now, may I make a suggestion to the attorney general?
Remove the damn prosecutor.
If the damn prosecutor is doing this, I don't know how much more damage she's doing to your community or he's doing to your community.
The board supposedly can tell the prosecutor what to do.
Well, get rid of the board.
How about we become part of America again?
Virginia, you helped us start us.
What you got a bunch of perverts in Fairfax County?
Oh.
A lot of them are gonna be have nothing to do for the next couple of weeks while the government's closed, by the way.
Well, thank you very much for listening in tonight.
I really appreciated it.
I hope you weren't distracted by the Yankee coverage.
I hope you like it.
Um I hope they like the two, because we got game three tomorrow.
Oh that's for all the marbles.
Wow.
And then who do they go?
Who do they go play, Ted?
What's the next Blue Jays?
Who?
Blue Jays.
The Blue Jays.
Yankees also have a losing record against the Blue Jays this year.
But they're a much better team.
Just trust me.
Um, thank you very much.
Where are we going now, Ted?
Lyndell TV.
To see Dr. Maria.
And tomorrow night, we'll get it all arranged and we'll show you our pictures, which we're gonna show you tonight, but we'll do it tomorrow night of our little uh excursion today on a boat.
We got a little on uh the Great Bay.
Right, right up to the Atlantic Ocean, passing revolutionary war, and war of 1812 uh forts.
Yep, and really a place that I think is a hot hot hallowed, which is the submarine base, and which many of the submarines that helped to win the second world war for us were done by all those women and men who you know couldn't couldn't meet the standards or whatever,
but boy, they they were just as vital to our winning that war as the people on the front lines because they get they got those damn things built in, you know, Trump time.
Well, pray for the people of Israel, pray for the people of Ukraine.
Things are right on the line there, right?
We see what's gonna happen.
Pray for the people of Iran.
I still am hopeful that that's gonna change uh uh uh regimes.
Pray for America.
God, you know that you you know that it they they need us to guide this world.
You get you gave us that obligation when you gave us all these benefits.
We have to help the whole world.
And to do that, we have to be strong and powerful and rich and militarily overwhelming so that we never have to use it.
Because we will never use it.
Guys like Putin, you know, love love killing uh these innocent people.
We we don't like to kill.
You can see it in our president.
So, dear God, give the president the guidance that he he needs.
We all do.
That's not meant to suggest that he isn't doing a great job, he is, but it's with your guidance, and you save him for us.
So, tomorrow night, seven o'clock on Lindell TV and X, eight o'clock on X, God bless America, and go see Dr. Maria now.
I want to be a part of the New York New York.
I want to be a part of the New York New York.
I want to wake up in a city that doesn't sleep.
And find I'm king of the hills, top of the heap.
Please go out.
This song, I like that.
It's our purpose to bring to bear the principle of common sense and rational discussion to the issues of our day.
America was created at a time of great turmoil, tremendous disagreements, anger, hatred.
It was a book written in 1776 that guided much of the discipline of thinking that brought to us the discovery of our freedoms, of our God-given freedoms.
It was Thomas Paine's Common Sense, written in 1776, one of the first American bestsellers, in which Thomas Paine explained by rational principles, the reason why these small colonies felt the necessity to separate from the kingdom of Great Britain and the King of England.
He explained their inherent desire for liberty, for freedom, freedom of religion, freedom of speech, the ability to select the people who govern them.
And he explained it in ways that were understandable to all the people, not just the elite.
Because the desire for freedom is universal.
The desire for freedom adheres in the human mind and it is part of the human soul.

The greatest democracy, the freest country, a country that has taken more people out of poverty than any country ever.
All of us are so fortunate to be Americans.
But a great deal of the reason for America's constant ability to self-improve is because we're able to reason.
We're able to talk.
