00:00:00.000 The Red Sox apparently played against the Yankees.
00:00:02.700 Twice.
00:00:03.220 Twice.
00:00:03.640 And, Tommy, you told me that they won.
00:00:04.880 The Yankees won.
00:00:05.820 They advanced.
00:00:06.320 Yankees won?
00:00:07.220 Yankees.
00:00:07.580 Congratulations.
00:00:08.280 Very interesting angles on the story.
00:00:09.880 The pitcher for the Red Sox, Sonny Gray, who used to play for the Yankees,
00:00:15.180 came up with the Oakland A's, right, played for the Yankees.
00:00:18.280 And all of a sudden, the market's like,
00:00:20.580 what the hell is this pine tar on his neck?
00:00:23.680 I don't know if you guys have seen this or not.
00:00:25.320 And he keeps wiping.
00:00:26.220 Look at this.
00:00:27.040 On the right side of his neck.
00:00:29.080 Right there, right there.
00:00:29.480 You see what he wiped?
00:00:30.220 To be able to, you know, to have a little bit more velocity.
00:00:34.340 And grip.
00:00:34.920 And grip because the weather's cold, right?
00:00:37.020 So they're saying this is what was going on.
00:00:39.160 In the post-game interview, and by the way, the other guy for them,
00:00:42.860 who is the guy that Conreras, who hits the home run,
00:00:46.160 takes him 28, 29 seconds to go at the end.
00:00:48.300 He was walking.
00:00:48.980 They're like, you're walking as if you are ahead or winning.
00:00:53.180 And Sonny Gray is doing the interview afterwards.
00:00:55.500 And look what he had to say.
00:00:56.300 Go for it.
00:00:56.760 I think I'm the best pitcher in the American League
00:00:59.520 going through the order the third time.
00:01:03.000 I think that's a fact.
00:01:03.460 Still does a funny commentating.
00:01:04.540 Let's back it up.
00:01:05.280 Sonny Gray, you are an absolute joke.
00:01:08.860 Before pitching a do or die game two, 0.99
00:01:11.240 he talked shit about the Yankees saying, 0.98
00:01:12.740 I never wanted to go there in the first place. 0.99
00:01:14.320 It feels good to me to go to a place where it's easy to hate the Yankees.
00:01:17.640 And even with all that confidence he claims he has,
00:01:19.920 he comes into Yankee Stadium with pine tar all over his neck.
00:01:22.180 And does a terrible job.
00:01:22.920 Look at this.
00:01:23.580 Poss it. 0.98
00:01:23.920 Poss it right there. 1.00
00:01:24.960 Poss it. 1.00
00:01:25.420 Poss it right there.
00:01:25.960 I'm going to go back a little bit and pause it right there.
00:01:28.000 Go back a little bit.
00:01:28.900 Look at that.
00:01:30.180 By the way, do you know what's my favorite part of the story?
00:01:34.160 Let me tell you what's my favorite part of the story.
00:01:36.180 This is all leading to my favorite part of the story.
00:01:38.680 Do you know the pitcher for the Yankees that Tom says is probably going to win
00:01:41.280 the Cy Young and potentially the MVP?
00:01:42.980 Cam Schlittler.
00:01:43.620 Okay.
00:01:43.980 Do you know what's the special story about Cam?
00:01:45.460 Do you know his background?
00:01:46.460 Not really.
00:01:46.980 Do you know when he was coming up?
00:01:48.360 Do you know what city he's from?
00:01:49.720 Boston.
00:01:50.320 He wanted his dream was to play for the Red Sox.
00:01:53.120 And they turned him down.
00:01:54.660 Oh, what a great story.
00:01:56.200 So he goes and plays for the Yankees, right?
00:01:59.860 And when he plays for the Yankees, can I share some stats with you,
00:02:03.300 just so you know?
00:02:04.020 Okay.
00:02:04.640 In the game that he had playing against the Red Sox,
00:02:06.820 he pitched for 6.1 innings, okay, 10 strikeouts, zero earned run, nothing.
00:02:11.780 He gave up nothing.
00:02:12.720 But that's not the big deal.
00:02:14.600 He finished with 117 pitches in the game.
00:02:18.760 That's a lot, right?
00:02:19.920 117 pitches.
00:02:20.600 The last time a Yankees pitcher pitched 117 pitches in a game was in 2012.
00:02:28.380 It was a guy named CeCe Sabanian.
00:02:31.540 This is not a common thing.
00:02:32.780 Tom can tell you 117 pitches today is unheard of today.
00:02:36.380 This is not a new – no, no, it's not.
00:02:38.180 But let me tell you what gets even more exciting about this.
00:02:40.760 Across two postseason starts against the Red Sox, he's pitched.
00:02:45.620 he's given zero runs 22 strikeouts and out of his six career starts against the red sox six
00:02:53.480 career starts against the red sox guess what his era is against six games against the red sox
00:03:00.180 one point nine i mean point five is his i mean anything lower than 2.0 are you kidding me like
00:03:07.280 that's insane to me on what he does so this guy is sitting there and he's being interviewed i
00:03:12.300 I don't know if you guys saw the interview, what he says.
00:03:14.240 He says, listen, if you want to be a legend in this game,
00:03:18.100 I don't know if you guys saw this or not.
00:03:20.300 Oh, I saw it.
00:03:20.740 And for the kids that play sports and you got things that's going on,
00:03:24.060 this is the mentality that I love, boys.
00:03:26.800 I'm sending it to you.
00:03:27.580 If you can play this clip, I send it to Vinny.
00:03:29.760 I didn't send it to you guys.
00:03:30.560 I'm going to send it to you for you to play this clip.
00:03:32.220 It's a different clip.
00:03:32.900 In this clip, he's being interviewed after the pitching game
00:03:37.200 that he apparently had.
00:03:38.600 I didn't watch it.
00:03:38.980 So he says in this interview, he's just talking very ice cold, very regular,
00:03:45.620 very calm, and he says the following.
00:03:48.080 Folks, I want you to watch this.
00:03:49.020 Play this clip for your kids. 0.74
00:03:50.660 Let your kids see this.
00:03:51.920 Okay, watch this.
00:03:52.520 Go ahead.
00:03:52.980 Play this from the beginning if you can.
00:03:54.880 Refresh it.
00:03:55.720 Refresh it one more time.
00:03:56.500 Watch this.
00:03:58.000 Get the mute button as well.
00:03:59.780 There you go.
00:04:00.580 Your position perfect.
00:04:01.520 The job's not done.
00:04:02.640 We've got to get another win tomorrow.
00:04:04.500 Listen.
00:04:05.280 Yeah, I mean, again, the job's not done.
00:04:08.120 We've got to get another win tomorrow.
00:04:09.540 But, I mean, it's very well known that, you know, if you want to be a legend,
00:04:14.840 which is obviously the goal, you've got to do it in the postseason.
00:04:18.220 So, go up there and have dominant starts and put the team in position to win.
00:04:23.200 And that's kind of the most important thing I thought a lot of the guys today
00:04:26.060 did a great job of that, and we're definitely heading in the right direction.
00:04:29.840 Don't you love that mindset, to have a mindset like that?
00:04:32.560 You're saying this is the guy who grew up being a Boston Red Sox fan.
00:04:35.160 This guy's dream was to play for the Red Sox.
00:04:37.800 and he plays for... Spoiler alert.
00:04:39.920 It's like you grew up 0.99
00:04:41.960 a Muslim, you become a Christian, and you want
00:04:43.840 her to be an imam, and you become...
00:04:45.440 That's how divergent New York and the Red Sox are.
00:04:47.920 No, the Red Sox, the Red Sox,
00:04:50.060 the two, it is a religion
00:04:51.800 for these guys. It is a religion
00:04:53.860 for these guys. And then Ben Rice,
00:04:55.780 who to me looks just like Roger Maris,
00:04:58.520 you know, did he hit a Grand Slam
00:05:00.020 or something like... Some people told me Ben Rice
00:05:02.000 hit a Grand Slam or he had a big home run.
00:05:03.400 Oh, by the way, how great is that, Pat?
00:05:05.220 The Yankees didn't hit a Grand Slam.
00:05:06.400 By the way, this is his upbringing.
00:05:08.360 Ben Rice to the left.
00:05:09.680 He's our designated hitter.
00:05:10.820 And how awesome is the decision as the New York Yankees not to –
00:05:14.220 Aaron Judge has been wanting to come back.
00:05:15.880 Stanton wants to come back.
00:05:16.860 They're in the dugout, but they're not letting him come back.
00:05:19.340 Can I tell you a good story, though?
00:05:20.740 This is the good story, Vinny, that we have to tell.
00:05:22.620 You have to.
00:05:23.240 One of the pitchers from the Red Sox, his name is Peyton Toll.
00:05:27.700 Tolley.
00:05:28.140 It may be Tolley.
00:05:28.860 Tolley.
00:05:29.300 Peyton Tolley.
00:05:30.460 There's two clips that Vinny brought up.
00:05:32.060 Can you do me a favor and bring these two clips up?
00:05:34.260 Okay, two of them. 0.91
00:05:35.040 First one.
00:05:35.360 Go to the first one that shows when he's being picked up and going to the major league.
00:05:38.880 This is the clip of him being told, you're about to pitch your first big major league baseball game.
00:05:44.480 Look at the reaction.
00:05:45.740 Go for it.
00:05:47.820 So, okay.
00:05:49.460 When I sell my business, I want the best tax and investment advice.
00:05:53.400 I want to help my kids and I want to give back to the community.

00:08:33.100 and they were sold.

00:08:56.580 It was with Hebrews 11.1 on the back.
00:08:58.900 The inside of the jacket, it has all of our heels.
00:09:03.660 I'm telling you right now, how warm is it?
00:09:05.280 We're talking about winter.
00:09:06.320 Be real.

00:09:24.140 Oh, my God.
00:09:24.480 He goes, listen, I'm going to be honest with you.
00:09:26.180 I'm not a big believer.
00:09:27.600 I believe in some spiritual something.
00:09:29.680 I'm basically an atheist, but I have to rock the jacket
00:09:32.220 because I love how it looks.
00:09:33.780 An atheist bought this jacket, and Adam was there.
00:09:37.060 Adam's my witness.
00:09:37.760 So, anyway, guys, go right now to FLB.com and get yours.
