-- beat up one run defeat the Orioles with a one run victory which is certainly amazing but. You have to look at Felix -- Brown's overall performance this year 167. K.s at a 161 innings and eleven wins. Yet the eleven wins could have obviously. You know been fifteen or sixteen if you know the the things went well for us they didn't but he battled through. A lot of difficult situations he's been their best pitcher with a man on third base and less than two outs. He's -- and he's been one of the most improved players from the first day of spring training and he has a lot to be proud of peace. He's made adjustments. Randy -- gun to speed up his tempo the last few games he did that. You know he still has to work a little with the holding runners and has to them. You know work on what we're done getting a little more efficient in the strike zone at times but he's a heck of a pitcher. Who should be proud of what he did in his first years as the -- to emirates. This place has been rocking it took awhile to catch on that desist -- team have magic when you look they only have a starting rotation that. They really haven't changed that many players. Well actually they've. They had a terrific open and there's 73 and one. When leading in the eighth inning and when utility team really have to do is get a lead after seven. You know the offense plays -- relaxed game of baseball. They don't have to worry about coming back. After leads blown they don't have to worry about. You know scoring more runs than that are necessary just do the job and it -- actors they're really relaxed at the plate and all take full swings and all capable of hitting home runs. You know Buck Showalter like you we managed in Texas like you we worked at the ESP and that. He's he had different manager than he was and other stops you think. Well I don't you know people always traded. -- a EL he's different because we didn't like him before we like him now I think he's the same guy. He you know we changed a culture here he does it his way he he knows what's right what's wrong he knows how to evaluate talent and they let him do it. How do you go by changing the culture of -- club. It takes a lot of work there's no doubt about that and it takes a lot of people working together pulling in the same direction. And it got his Hussein without a starting rotation for the most part to have that sort of unprecedented and then. Today's baseball hall they somebody's don't know who's gonna pitch it two days later. Well what he did -- he built the bullpen and he knows what what he has in the bullpen. And then that's reflective of the 73 and one and then there's also all those six inning games. And then the extra inning games that have -- put in his would win column. Because not because of the guy who starts -- because of the guys who are coming in relief. Today you go well with -- Zach Stewart we know we had a rough outing against the Angels. Did he do anything different attack at that. Get back to his level. We really -- -- really good game in the playoffs. You know went six innings -- of only four hits. We're looking for him to. You know we know the recent contact but hopefully -- contact will be yet people. And Joseph Sanders a lefty -- you have pretty much a right -- lineup -- -- -- its first of. Yeah we're world title already in the lineup but then again look. You know did get the reps going in play -- good team as we can because he's seen these games are very important in name in the American League. Our manager's question mark in my Mercedes-Benz body yet yesterday. Be -- -- -- his 43 -- any ties family right now he'd be a Triple Crown winner hasn't happened that. Since 67 after it happened two years in a row is at that. Just their fate or is it. She indication of just how tough it is. It's very difficult to do. You know -- the guy who's who's playing in a big blow part tough hitters ballpark. Just proving that he's. As good hitters there's ever been down the pike. He -- from the right side doesn't immediately hit then. Earns everything you get seats. He's he's a special special baseball player. Like today about Kato thanks.
