" Today out want to talk about rules. And methodology. How's that for a year it's all RG well like word -- sociology. Its that. David they were people use that word methodology. Well outlook but I want to talk about the new due to sign another word Ellen okay mr. wordsmith and I don't think -- knows what that methodology. The rules that's when you go to that clinic if you really unheralded exactly methodology at a what's the methodology clinic and -- well that's right that's right."

" Now if Bud Selig is willing to use instant replay in the upcoming post season. If Major League Baseball is willing to consider changing the home run derby rules of Josh Hamilton's. 28 home runs in one round you know actually out or winning or losing. Least some safeguard contingency plans be put in place so Major League Baseball does not put the fans. Bull on television and in the stadium and the players who still think have a half a season to play. What they were put through last night -- that was at 13737. In the morning."

" Why so -- Alec I get up and I didn't see and in most people denied. Most of this does not stale for the end of this. Midnight classic. Where the American League last in the National League -- last night but. Wake up on -- fifteen innings this thing -- school that's different that's. That's kind of fun I've read about it Maceda -- J. D. Drew although he almost had hits they almost. But I. Watch the baseball. League -- had insiders and they act like. You know there's. No well war going public someone like located showed up on the shores and in New York this -- Michael what are we going to do about this. It's -- dire situation."

" Brandon Webb had wrote thirteen hit a -- could walk up plate and we have to change the rules. Why would you care if Brandon Webb is pitcher. Apple -- in the last guy at the bullpen and went three and a third innings and 75 pitches because he was the last man standing up. Why don't care in the ceremony to keep track all the pitches there. Bob felt respect and oh my god Bradley dilemma. Sure low hot spots and may god excellent vision whether it's this -- not -- commission big music cock."

" Maybe when you have a I don't know with the ratings -- but too many many many millions of people watch and don't normally watch. It was at a carp maybe pregame ceremony don't tremendous it was an extravaganza. Yeah it was a -- I mean he they've. All star game in baseball is something special. And I I don't think it was ruined because."

" It Israel and dodge telling you only got one day rest just telling you that if you or Scott Kazmir and you are and you are. Aaron Cook your Mo Rivera or your story or Cheryl -- 25 pitches thirty pitches 26 to 42 -- they still having second -- a Lotta people -- so deep -- Rangers -- almighty god. Josh Hamilton had to swing. 57 times as a matter of fact I am old salt up above you write whatever you're like golf swings hitting nineteen home runs and the next calendar year -- The second twins fan Justin Morneau had to pick all those leagues that they batting practice and -- Maybe -- level blow on his dominance next step -- the opposite here NC. Let's change the rules because an all star pitcher that's actually in the all star game the only thing that needs changes and -- and a plane. While this guy who is more likely suffer permanent damage. Brad -- scored Dan Uggla Dan Uggla psychologically Dan Uggla had the single worst. That we should -- people and J. D. -- won the MVP yes he did the two run home restaurant you know walked the Papelbon that he asked from sunup to sundown but he pitched well -- I'm Jim unearned run."

" they won fifteen innings all the pitchers pitched none of the position players pitched. Drew was warming up in the bullpen that figuratively woman up in the bullpen although Kazmir was going to go another inning. And god the physical the National Guard in because he picks."

" I'm David the good you know anybody -- Major League Baseball player you -- one make fun of these that I could. Don't buy -- a couple one what the last guys standing and Terry Francona had out there for three innings. And throws -- the -- it is prequel makes it sound like ones children's life support in the waiting room and poem. -- may usually Bob Irvin art pop and I'll have followed eventually by -- Edwards -- I was getting acne on my -- Terry Francona have lost feeling in him as a result of this last night you'll read this you know I don't think. The tie game with the worst thing that have happened baseball a couple of years ago I think it fifteen inning exhibition games the worst thing happened baseball I think we overreacted to situations like. So what Brandon Webb had to throw how many pitches. -- threw thirteen pitches. Oh god Z is he going to live mean we needed to get a matter weather's going to live it's a routine it's a matter of guys. Getting bodies out of the -- team in the slightest everybody I am sheets is out Cliff Lee is out of their routine and you know it Kevin Youkilis is out of there out of the routine it's an all star it's. -- speeds as high in this way the."

" I paid highly modeled. Sissy boys sat in the hot sun of a parade all day long -- then they went on the ball Bahrain base through 847 minute free anything that deeply for hours and fifty minutes by the way speaking of rules methodology here's my rule. I commit. Only three hours and only nine innings to any all star baseball game -- once three hours goes by or nine innings which comes first I am done I'm headed for bad time turning off the element. What was. It's Mike Vrabel -- ones that are simple and all I take a backseat to nobody criticizing me or else these sissy boys. I'm just telling you that it that it gave if you like to get some rest -- Jonathan -- won Kevin Youkilis a lot of your players you don't want to see them at the clock in the morning throwing seventy pitches. And three and a third innings win that's the night tonight but it would want to Friday night that don't go let's go go go to meals out again and hit one -- take away the home field advantage. Like not it's -- play one more and everybody goes home at three thrive on my -- is awesome really do -- fifteen innings for an all star game -- certainly is an automatic explain the plate Bob power how many of those fifteen -- innings that you were celebrating did you watch eleven of I got him."

" I missed the last four. But it's an awesome experience it was -- I think the -- need to be changed is that methodology of the managers in terms of how they approach it. Let a guy start and go for five innings -- picket guy that you any on. And I don't worry at all that plate like it kept and played like it matters if if it's going to matter let everybody get out there a mention of what happened last night was almost a case -- David Wright and J. D. Drew and incorrect imagine now what your point is very well what can I don't care if either of those guys had gotten hurt pitching net and -- go hearty go get our pitching me."

" We had a ball that as a way to get hurt -- hello today's ballplayers Talbot scored -- which probably likely brad coach I am not God's -- there's really like I'm able. Dynamite reading well players I mean exactly. Well we we don't look like -- that is gone I think we like also like five more to go lower payroll upon would go around Nadal. On the little."

" Table on obvious here it's like they. Liked -- terrorist threat bombs in the ago what do we do about this. Got. And they all played less than they typically do in Brandon Webb typically -- 113. Pitches brad."

" But not as old age perhaps minister -- Friday night outside and we will. Brad Lidge threw ninety pitches riots I'll close every through an extra days ago Brian he's a closer some -- rare cogent comments from the last month in recent months is going to be more and Bob Howry and the today and that is. You would do one -- you -- I -- and play nine innings I won more than goal tied at 33 more you play like it's a real game electric starter ago. 56. Innings. And."

" you take out Ben Sheets and go to Carlos Zambrano you watch and that's and that's -- downgrade. -- the next guy who comes in is just as good as the starter all fresh that strong -- and a new closer and some of the best closers in history. Every inning you know give the other team an advantage."

" But because of all the great pitching it's likely that this game is -- and that time that's frequently it's going to be low scoring rate and you know what -- the have to be prepared for that and put fifteen pitchers on the roster so they'll pitch one inning or something like that -- treated like and let these guys go -- started getting through 42 pitches and it seemed like a lot to make but the nationally Clint hurdle was I doing things."

" Over the American League has won thirty it's thirty pitches so it was fifteen minutes of the game and and and -- it's ten minutes of the game and buckets well that was used up all this positional players. Well and that -- good thing for access his solution was to -- fifty players if that way you know play Olympic and ridiculous the year that someone get hurt I missed it wrote that on as long as -- without Hispanic or or metal collar or. With a 25 was involved last night not a ball as it was real diversity yet yours. Means plenty of all of us were rough isn't so. Rick should be disappointment. Went fifteen innings in position player didn't pitch. That's fun. For two reasons aggregate deceit in -- likely have some runs scored it's that -- the extra inning game and Youkilis is that position player and blows out his -- who cares what he falls -- errors pitfalls of afloat in the parade breaks is on the possible so they should read would have got her a racial I'll -- and the consequent and Papelbon -- out of -- for the right gets some burned out. Opts out at a stroke I mean. You can always heard he can always these guys all played less than they typically do you -- laid it up twice. -- for two we should -- open to for Youkilis opal won't walk Pedroia -- for pole there in the team not obvious that the Francona took Arctic with it turned to just play two innings in the populace damaged yeah that put him in there have four times. One for four. And it was the -- and -- for two and two for two RB and -- and won the -- yeah now and it is not -- Majestic as Canseco got hurt -- Canseco and that's right the the iron man of the Boston Red Sox this year as you want him out on the mound throwing her ball and assists as the -- them you know elbow they would yeah message was out these guys had pitched at all these aren't the possibly ago these -- hockey players are baseball players. Yeah and are wealthy area -- and audio. And very well. He's probably still heard from drilled on -- no doubt. And he's out there is that is draw a frequently bruises that though. I'd rather. I'd -- put the feet it's punting form drinking beer with doubt. An all star game. We've gone to extremes your -- and you -- into your your your completely over the I think they should start in the ruble and football and that. The question you know here you -- play today you can like re entered as well whoever said it was not do in Little League he can -- can -- go back -- them like. You wouldn't do that -- without any old alone totaled though that the pitchers and their pitching -- in the ninth inning right you can write you wouldn't with a pitcher in the position players and that couple -- back in. One was hurt how well -- I would that you don't have to consider whether Papelbon would be the last one to pitch if Rivera went in came out when it came out. The last one not to -- on a plane LA right now. He's coming adaptable obviously get an injection you know it's a -- For the acting and for that. -- But that kind of a stressful this once he."

" Backed me on my forehead. I told Jim Leland in the blessing us and I'll put personal quit chewing. I lied but I -- It was it was tough literally -- it was. It was fun to be a part of because I mean I've enjoyed the players so what's the staff. But it it is a little difficult. Sort of go longer we're comfortable with."

" So yeah yeah yeah you know you can do by the way the only thing and that didn't have. You can you can fill the dots -- make a sneaker logo for a four with a trip to. Relax like he can and tunnels that gave us votes against them. -- Game seven -- Fenway Park but you can put a pitcher in the game take him out and put him at first base and the --"

" And help us out I don't know I don't know unsettled now and certainly wouldn't look like. An -- probably."

" He'd still be they gave it to -- again later broke probably pitched a million times in his -- team -- in the major -- David Wright who was an expert in the National League has pitched."

" They've all. If both the run or less cars that aren't as alarming last an inning that. If the that you have loved you would have Jordan watching Drew it right and I hate that (%expletive) I hope it. That's in there and and and bought paper is delighted that this game is titles scoring affair. It started with 847 for Bryant now all that means you know you're I don't know breaks that went fifteen innings. People with right now at this moment saw the final out until the final final run the catcher is zero not nobody."

" Not many I mean people that obviously people in public on the big -- get to -- noon everyday -- yeah. Pop a couple red Bulls like Duke was meant you -- second -- and -- at midnight. I went home a -- huge interest want to but now I mean I wish I could I wish it -- that sounds pretty dramatic just to see you know Dan Uggla -- and on the ground ball."

" All -- leads me to an important question of all the Major League big time stars last night. Who had the in more uncomfortable evening Dan Uggla. Or Roger Clemens. Yeah. This can't last night and set myself as as that that pre -- thing unfold before you and and it just one great name after the other is just on its heels -- the -- look at the wage well -- myself. This is something that Roger Clemens lives four lives four would kill to -- there and probably won't ever be there and then critic. I don't while since Roger took a right playmaker to the -- it's been a couple of weeks since somebody smacked Roger in the baseline."

" I told -- this before the daily news has a has the stuff stockpiled. With and they are just -- drips drip drip. They gonna pick the right time yeah -- day at the right newspaper to put -- today to slow -- day obviously they have the all star game but. -- a lot of breaking news huge audience in New York all of MLB has yet gathered there on occasion so they said here's a good day. Rather than -- make up some fabricate some Papelbon. Rivera scandal like they did the day before -- they said -- let's let's go with the Roger Clemens. Outrage of the day here you get Clemens on -- redon skis mailing list."

" Yes he has yep yep confessed drug supplier Kirk -- ski has provided documentary evidence to the government. Showing that he indeed ship drugs to the Texas home. Of Roger Clemens human growth hormones exactly red dogs being as that has discovered -- a bit more. -- he has suddenly I had network suddenly discovered. Shipment receipts for a package of two kits of human growth hormones. But he set at clemens' home in late 2000 to 2003. The pitchers palatial mansion in. Houston."

" package was addressed to William Roger Clemens yeah out in -- all say the same time. -- and -- and it didn't -- is likely report McNamee who often lived in Clemens pool house in the these it -- Told congress Clement says that should be huge one day McNamee said the rocket used -- and you're an intercom. And and to enter intercom to summon McNamee Clemens. Master bedroom where the injected Debbie -- and -- Clemens watched. And then afterwards. Saying. I was an outrage I can't believe he did this life objectives -- bare buttocks. We don't know he was there I don't -- remembers. It's is there anyone out there who thinks Clemens is still rusty Hardin. Now rusty doesn't they aren't here and I can't imagine there's any truth that it all will find out one -- Roger never received or took the stuff of about it and I didn't believe that intimacy paying him to be pathetic. Right that's what lawyers do that -- right to be that Derek. It's a hopeless Clement situation so hopeless it's almost. It bonds -- haven't reached the point where Phil saw reform and Lenovo have reached that point but he is one with that Exel. And he and he will never -- variants and be a part -- with solid all is more likely to be upon -- like that the Clemens and and McGwire and Sosa those guys all recover faster than Roger. I think. When you're watching last that he was to commences at home in Houston was jealous of a -- books -- outs and a blog -- and -- is -- yes life and he gets to go there and take a bow his Yankee fan on and and Clemens doesn't it's Kellen yet."

" During the Margo Adams for them. I'm glad that's -- me in trouble like that. Man for rod jut me the problem sports slash of the red dog -- later in the broadcast you can join -- on the ball and we got we got Manny news. From our colleague rob Bradford yeah has always break and nice interesting in depth conversation -- merit -- 7778523888525850. Will get to you -- you get to Bobby Burgundy."
