To the Pedroia of buttons Bradford shall I put his name first as well as Dustin Pedroia joining us on the AT&T hotline AT&T. Your world delivered dostum like rob Oreo.

I figured Billick -- it was -- who's doing -- Actually up -- sit out right now desert besides who watches seven and nine year old play -- football. Do and that's who I Wake Forest. -- Doubt go to -- saw it's charity event last night which RRR I went to their home run derby there and you know surprising that there was a number 32 retired on the outfield wall. It was Terry Francona. -- rutelli. Yeah and it brought a couple times and -- myself for the security and that's good but it's a it was hilarious note the -- clarify were you in the home run -- continents. No are actually not I was standing there watching watching -- it opposite number.

Now it's -- like that when you know the other for a total last year when you see what dostum an easier chance to -- your manager you sit out out they see kids throw open balls off his retired number do you -- and you get out of a little -- get after we saw it cut. Kerry look -- what out here in California.

I actually get about fifteen minutes ago. I like I -- that I can't political on the radio again like I am weaker numbers are.

a foot putt it. It's funny -- because you as you know that we pencil listening to dog -- for your segment here and him Francona from. From wherever sent a couple of -- well -- that we can read those over the air. -- I do you wanna do this now do you what you guys -- I think get to throw or we we generally how the segment without -- name -- so we have to pick the segments name now the dust and we got a -- emails here this morning I'm gonna read you a couple all the good ones -- and our opinion who knows we -- terrible taste is that is. Ought to give you some names for your segment and I don't know how we -- gonna figure out which one you like the most. On -- for example. On somebody suggest the recall that the laser show every time you come on the air with us.

that's so we're gonna copilot that's outstanding athletic bigger their own tomorrow. I will again.

Principals to have a third -- I like -- tell though is going daisy in the movie you mean do three correct. Card someone suggested you may NPD. Not -- like now on don't like -- don't like that one. Maybe there weren't as many good ones how I like this one that this is this is the email or soliciting this little issue his big mouth with Dustin Pedroia. Since he couldn't. -- Melanoma mostly good -- when Mike -- I -- Saturday's. Feel like -- like delays or so won't go cut to the chance. Absolutely -- south Blazers so it is the watch him in. Dustin -- joining us a laser show -- for WEEI Yankees won the World Series. Red Sox fans don't like the Yankees does it does it drive you a little bit more crazy knowing your team lost this year dust and and the Yankees come home with a championship.

Are a little bit amid and not think I've ever but it -- he was watching the World Series you know. You know pretty upside you know. If they played great -- a great year they want 200 whatever games and then dominate in the playoffs so no they deserve to won the World Series but about. You know obviously it's great American League team won and and LB game one but. Arctic a lot of fans around Red Sox Nation -- it -- Hopefully next here a lot different.

Did you talk to either. I accept -- air express it is what Greg god had a knob that went out differentiate it seems like wherever he's Chicago's world.

She's like that modern day Don Baylor does Eric Hinske for for those who didn't know. I set inside radio -- I couldn't figure out -- was -- we're we're we're trying to brand -- and the -- him some credit. What age you start to a year off season process dawson's been a couple of weeks when W what in earnest a start to prepare for 2010 and Q is there are assets at time where you'll show up -- the athlete performance on Arizona.

About two yards started my second week or not they're about a week and a half off than not -- started -- last Monday -- I'm gone when they went they -- right now just start working out there and give a lot of back in shape and induct you -- Europe. Next year and figure.

Big doesn't you're you're not going out for his performance cracked.

This aboard did our -- might be going out didn't see every talked to about it all.

I have I haven't -- some -- caught her -- it I didn't know that -- I don't know that I -- direct in my becoming -- but I did note David what are but. You know -- I think they see the body that I am that I. Which pure greed and they're like you know like saying -- I -- maybe also joined him.

Yeah well as cronies know at the Patrick -- you via the fullback for the Saints used to say the EU ST actually used to mock Q. -- are you hypocrites. -- here with.

All the credit that's a pretty good it's like I got my hands full and -- and then we I don't want a network -- upon tabled on out the professional problem now I don't. Conflict tried to -- in the on the level I think on game. All -- what -- got a a great table and our problems from what when people.

The album so -- do you pay attention though all the off seasons of stuff in terms of the hot stove and potential trades and so forth and so on all the other out there and information that you can get on W -- dot com.

yeah you know I mean I I definitely check it out you know yell at one and all. You know what's going on our -- into the get better and you know poker. -- We've spent all your -- seven months together and China won a championship so they definitely I don't know what quality human and you know were I think we're gonna. You know we're gonna decent thing to be excited about next here.

So dusty used to also in Harlem negotiations are you want to take some phone calls. All right so whispering among -- gonna open the -- this was -- idea let's preface all this dusty wants take your calls. It's the laser show with Dustin Pedroia who won 77790858. Response and tawdry and 8885250850. -- it's not Mike Lansing joining us it's the later as -- doesn't have Hoya the only Mike Lansing was the laser as far as I'm concerned Tony is in the north and the he's all what Dustin Tony.

It got here -- regard. -- Not that I and go back on that pin while they are written about -- pretty quick goal matchup yet dogs are pretty proud of what you think vote children. How that's -- Brady. Absolutely --

Pretty quick -- worked out a few years back you know -- was comin' meeting after the draft and you know you always walk right never picked up a weight on them. Other guys. Bill you know these -- honestly he's probably the biggest quarterback ever in my life walk around -- wait about three weeks and finally asked -- what you know -- Like it what do you do around here you know you do respect because you're walking around. You know like your big bad Brady Quinn and you'd you know do anything. And so we just sort of laughing at such a great guy I -- suspected pickpocket gantlet that -- yet. -- with -- and Arctic city beyond he's he's pretty coordinated. But finally am like you know forget their -- pretty good ball -- shoulder neck or head whatever whatever you could think I was pacing off. And you know he became pretty different you know play ping pong. But there is pretty good -- I'm proud are you all the -- pretty good that would remove itself could you could be back subsequent you get tackled. Like its back on yeah urban model. A lot stronger radiates. Out. At a really mean much but -- good football thought -- like it around the corner there got a good --

That's interesting you say that affects the call Tony a lot of Browns fans calling and say we haven't -- Brady Quinn's. -- of football in Cleveland -- love -- big some bottles of concern about how we have a we seem Pedroia sacked at the end Rudy wind Pedroia sacked the quarterback that's not that there at the end of the movement now I don't know I will I will vote for Pedroia is ping pong skills though. I did hit the over on the number of points I achieve stuff from which was four. Who I guess is he let you score points draw plays up that tricky here and I Cornish and let's talk to Hannah and west NN West Springfield. I joining us here talk in the dust and and a.

Paint TD ally yet and I howry. I'm telling -- can't thank -- our act we heard that you wanted to being on there and now that had mellowed.

Is going in and in there and need. Any notion that you make which numbered because so that we can go out and Garrett security is there a lot.

Not that that's a great question -- and think about a lot of -- changes you know after you know air about. -- right and number seven and -- and they want the World Series off. Odd thing about change in mind eight but that. That retired the Red Sox -- this -- that. You got the W problem. So what do fights and it's like seven point five but. -- lapidus if you know -- it would help it worked out for the Yankees and that's that's pretty good luck like they're about that at bat and a half. You know we can work on that. I'll let you know -- to a college in not accept or start -- I came up there on. I know Terry Francona -- the history they'll appreciate it. I came up -- number six before I got called up and in the next year in 07 be getting in and -- like man you know I'm not very big guy. Like a low number you know I don't look. You know about that small so double digit number like open note in my and nobody you know you know what -- what you -- and number two you know. -- think about it in my cart sweet so. About a couple days later he goes what this hunting gun you know it's no matter all that up so. What are a result I had Easter merchandise. And they have like the other things -- no I'd make up its. You know nice nice whatever was gone not a not a big honor. -- in my car note I got ready and what about number two to go out you know I don't think. Topic -- negated the like you know but it always scared of -- and eat eat you know he looks he's he's a big strong guys -- and the Scott. If it's you know stop but he he desecrated got a world. I'll let you know what I ended up the pick and fifteen an -- Campbell are and you know odds -- that it.

You know you -- Wilson number two. Who do well whose name comes up when you Gould Dustin Pedroia. Around our number there. Yes yes yeah. It got around champion ever. Since truth and I thank you all call today is. Now let's talk to Joe and -- he's next up here the laser show doesn't enjoy joins us on WEEI Joe.

But it it seats about production out of -- Pedroia on the on the radio WEEI. I just went -- make a comic and after the Pedroia are questioned. Commented on behalf of Red Sox Nation. The Democrats who could become an American -- American League rookie of the yeah. American League MVP. Second baseman pop Red Sox at the time bomb threats Clark will get an acute care. All right I'll what one under you're. Okay would you put came up during the beginning your career. Estimates -- that. Not to beat them worked so well I think quite a call. McCarthy -- albeit politely and while no Hillary broke it off the kind of Rocky spot okay. What what could create your group because not only will -- second baseman. I bit my car and I think I call it idol what you might have like a more Rivera or -- how did you develop that. After getting off to a top beginning shall we say it but the -- twenty and that's what your baseball career.

I'll thank you thank you thank you. -- you know -- on in the big picture may well. All right I I had like well whatever level like since Q I was just. He you know I was looking you know right next thing you know restart and out and taken back and it really now. You know you know what to say what to do everything in and you know Arctic. I think I just finally got to play -- that you know what I'm going to be who I am and you know hopefully hopefully everybody in my team and and and all the fans and everyone like me. Door to -- major player and I just. You know start in well I've always better. In Arctic have to believe in yourself and and know that -- to play -- right way to get art you know -- you'd be successful.

where did you get that Kyle. When everyone wants to know. -- worrying about well I don't -- some of those kids out there you're watching right now I can't dial it -- stay in Rhode Island because still is in Providence seize up next would Dustin Pedroia felt.

They've got it right doing in my favorite Red Sox play on acting not sit at number Red Sox and which in my career. I have a question totally off base -- all of baseball off our as our that would change Q and did you ever realize. What a child would bring to light how much love. A child would bring to realize how has changed.

Ought to change change me completely having that. You know every dad I'd I wake up and and go play with Solomon and and -- I think everything everything's different values values he he comes first in always slices. Is more port in my it's more important and that and everything so our arms try to -- cancer the -- right and you know they can meet a little bit more it's gotta get any -- problem but. But I'll start dislike about -- not at the biggest victory in definitely enjoyed it. They -- your free time and good luck in the next upcoming. All right topic here.

And so -- things change is the fact that he doesn't taxed when he's driving anymore. Right absolutely. No you don't tax stuff.

No I don't sacks for Serb but I I gotta I gotta look -- sore about -- this well what ever now. I Audubon New England Patriots sweatsuit because I like the Chicago Bears spent it helps being for Chicago and I'm about forty niner fans -- like you know at. I'm mark will have my my son -- fan that's for sure it. You know trying to you know try to -- them -- you know the history of the -- Joe Montana and Jerry Rice all the guys Ron Amadon. -- I -- start screaming at such -- you know forget -- pitcher. All my mom my voice Rockets and page two right.

Outlook go so we all we -- how -- 06 name or number that he's like he's Hamas on the back her or Brady had door. Where are not right yeah I yeah -- as Kelly had to take the red Rose has stopped you from seeing red Beaulieu.

Don't actually faster we can Garces hit what would happen like -- couple -- your child. Oh I -- a valid and that you look at bigger what is wrong I thought you know what I'm I'm kind of bored right now should be playing baseball. Ideal thing but yeah so that's what -- do much spare time chart try to try to get my cigarette right now responsible.

And that some word somewhere Terry Francona -- miss that then yeah that sounds about right Fred. -- and Drake and Fred your -- the laser show.

could show us that the congratulations of the Nazis. Thank you are picking up on these last caller you know talking -- trial are fortunate you're have a healthy trial. -- You know it's just great thing that the Red Sox do. For the community and if you could imagine is in wheelchairs. Races in. Things of this nature. Out there get their pictures taken. You know -- protect our out -- your organization. You know for doing such a thing.

Yeah they're they're the Red Sox are outstanding. With organizations and helping and and doing all they can and and you know that it's it's. If you learn about a comment to the minor league system and and then knowing you know how to help their -- what to try to do our but the Red Sox. You know aren't that obvious as -- there's not been but. You know what I hear it it's the best and how they they take -- of the community and and and support everything --

You know it's got -- thing that we could you know ask you know get let. We knew we are sure are. We ask that we got. And what other quick thing Belichick go but call feels he's the mayor -- get up there addressed the organization and he used to use an example. As you know or it's that you know have a lot of challenges overcome. And -- your challenges -- sure what -- some scouting. Scattered stuff for Ernie Els to. Smaller whatever. And certainly proved more -- so. A group of one other cricket a couple of Yankee fans that they would get their picture taken with stroke. Record at -- you know they get a bat. Since. And yet we got a great which you guys that's what it. Here.

Imagine the Red Sox Nation part of this Dustin you -- obviously living out in California are you still does you get surprised at how big. Red Sox Nation how deep this thing goes.

Dark it got real are actually live in Arizona and not. The you know the people here -- we went with this thing outsiders people here -- suck shirts aren't. You know. I've heard -- go on the birth stories to see somebody with with you know big poppy shirt on it's great match everywhere are so great offense support us. And I distance and and then doing an area but it but in the novel.

When oil was the first time where it was the first time we saw somewhere and Pedroia -- you remember that.

I mean -- not you know what I actually did does -- want I'm not soft. I saw that with with with a certain Iannetta is little son with with with mustard on it. -- like dang man that's so weird it's. You know doubt that would me like a long time ago work very bonds certainly dispute black airport.

Which was weird that seeing that are seeing yourself and video game.

That -- probably in the that hit the big they're both weird man that. Never thought like I would be back good on the video game because out anyway anything my gut when that and that game is watching.

And almost -- to contractual obligation to shore up. So it's a dust dust is -- those contractual obligations -- talked a little laser show here on WEEI let's talk got a couple more here rob Bob isn't boils than Bob your own Dustin Pedroia.

A guy that -- has lost most at a local clarity rather radio blood. I get a salary of five foot 761. Also. And I say come out for the made it my whole life also sort of -- give or eleven out of high school. -- and so on Pacific cup back in the seventies and our number -- get -- off the -- this -- but that's neither here or there rather video game is tremendous when I do my guess stationary Blake you know myself my -- and how we played like demons. It's tremendous tremendous.

Well as a true career play Pedroia does does.

Yes that's been decides through it. Those those games ago I dont like something you know crazy insists the sports games and it's what he does if you have a young boy and my sounds just like I was brought up physically and I think it's I think. They have and I've played baseball and I haven't watched these police -- he beckoned it excellently has three channels on -- he's -- You know so many outlets I would that you won't you know thus it's really. You know you're awesome player today through watching you play well when he hit those home so psyched up for almost two months. And it's. Well thank you very much. No problem that we really Jerry played you're great what role model for the kids my son is -- diehard Red Sox fan anytime -- sees you -- goes straight up to it says the Yankees they think and you also -- betrayal well. And we appreciate. You'll be another radio I think it's great for rub against it's -- it's CU players who -- developed in the in the organization and not one question before I go. Are we look at for a place shortstop this year with your and I know that's -- very you know the -- stability that its second baseman and it showed that especially when he played -- people don't realize and I think peaceful it's not a grind -- you know you guys really. It with the travel and and it's like it's yet -- few guys in I hope because Belichick keep working out -- body --

Well let's learn that they like -- even wanna you wanna make that next Bob. Don't we don't mess with the bull you get the horns.

I would answer question I mean that. You know that's. That's definitely. The -- topped off for the army you've got you know put together human and you have obviously got a contract summed up like that unity theory side embargo gave you guys that are. You don't. Promote better or whatever so that's that that's that's why they're -- GM jobs that are extremely tough especially you know Boston New York the big market team. So -- what you mean that the guys you know obviously out and awfully great in Anthony's. Also in the work with. You know jet jet -- at some you know you're battling wrist problems on both you know how well he played in the playoffs and a sevens. Aren't parents aren't always so. You know about that that's like that it's it's our job for PO let. At second base Benard is try to prepare find out what's gonna be and and -- work hard to camp with those guys the bigger a double play combination.

I'll -- one more herald is up up the main -- draw what Dustin Pedroia.

Good out everything. They -- a good a big Red Sox and I act get the Red Sox got to the Yankees sucks about that so saucepan and a bottle mumbled that now. I go in and out the number 58 -- in the debate so you know I. Thought I am through the last column that. Lot college just took my -- excellent shortstop thank -- actual question. -- now I would and and with Jacoby you are not Jacoby chill out a lot the other day up. Yeah he -- secure or outs two nights ago are we -- we've in my backyard barbecue barbecued chicken at much or fret over. I Jacoby and an -- came by and oh yeah or wrote different are we actually -- What's great about the Kobe is when I first met on knowing what sort of -- our players McAuliffe you always kind of a quiet guy. You know he's -- he's pretty well built in -- and -- break the guy and got my hat. -- like you don't you don't hang out more relax talk more. Actually been the most. The most I've heard talk with that he you know on the yet it first victory he did it a couple weeks ago. I'll go but we got to mull over music just make problem until he finds a way to start talking. Out. About 3540 minutes and make fun of -- and you know I don't you know it didn't get a feel the political politeness. Who are that really doesn't do anything either.

Connecticut Connecticut we'll look what it was anyone here athlete's performance whipping boys.

Absolutely absent was sometimes got it to put somebody got a gun a little bit and are in October use the seventh best center fielder in the league east and you. You know he took the contract so that and and round and had an unbelievable feeling and you know get better or.

Well thus we know -- hanging -- a football game and it's good to finally have a name for this the laser show Saturdays with dusty destroys your brother -- someone to -- another one the pony ride. Sure out of the country's got a delays.

And and don't worry every once Saturday were like you free welding goggles are streaky glasses for the Lakers --

Tough tough tough but then now that doesn't have a good we can all talk do you soon. -- got into areas Dustin Pedroia.
