Bill Lee on the Planet

" It is run out these nice beautiful headphones I love so much about the property WE EI sports radio belonged to the big well. Oh we're going to auction off in the next hour we should for the Jimmy time he would love that I carefully called. From the airport told he got a for Johnny most. If there's spoken. If it smoke poured out of hey what did you think when you heard heard this news about Dennis Johnson I know. You know he's got the blue eyes he had a frank calls got the irishman in the wood pile on the yeah. He was 52 is -- 52 years but you see them but he was carried around he the only said the big but I'm telling you he looked like. Let's play two Ernie bank Ernie banks Ernie banks is but goes across all the way across Addison is still to this day. That's the voice of -- who joins us now fresh from an airplane in California. Word Europe they're busy you're dead you believe I came activist. I can't believe I came back to zero degree weather. It's like eight how how called going to be where you live up and crashed bury a doctor I saw saint John's -- three degrees to this on on the my cat turn -- all pointer at at it. Gotten done after that where I turn on the TV the other day and it shows Mal Washington a guy with a and a boiling water. And he throws it up in the air before it even leaves the and it becomes a blizzard -- now -- wins earlier story talk a guy who. Burn his genitals trying to waited on fire it has nothing do what you're talking about mister -- in music you read that story later is that that we it jackass stunt using lighter -- your kid Mets like the smart move the the Darwinian awards. There was a guy who tried to take is screwed him in Washington football watcher. The golf or all guards. He slipped up the ball washer and needless to say he's got an honorary award for Darwinian as he should I -- So it's baseball season bill Lee to -- 200720 years ago we start talking baseball you -- that was when the Red Sox were good now they look and pretty darn good but he I think they've piled up some some starting pitching don't W well. You know that the the dice K guy I read it's like friend mindset maybe article from. That -- comes out every day. The one with the pictures that you read too much which or USA today okay if the US USA today news anyway it's a synopsis but it had a great article that."

" One of his coaches 62 year old guys it was looked like Don Zimmer it ground balls at him for for now no kid. Four hours as a -- he's a perfectionist. Well that's what that is Japan's all had a bad dealership and it is that's what it's all about -- you they were you are there law on basics. Tell me about it -- you have a flaw the kid through. 17 innings came back with a day's rest and throw a no hitter in the championship game high school that's -- He threw 54 innings in 11 days I active 54 and three days but. I was getting out -- gynecologists you know old people go -- that all people would issue with good yeah but this guy Castro's. Average 145 pitches a game so well that's it their pitchers he's a guy who's developed that changeup. He's probably varies mum I watched him. You know I haven't -- human lives action -- everybody wants me to comment gyro ball which I call back -- slider right. Which Jews you know if it breaks it's great that it. Breaks the opposite way it's great when it doesn't break and stays down the -- it's called meet meet as usual but with the thing with -- against the -- ball breaks away from right -- with a reverse spin on hitters is that possible. Well that's a back up slider kind of once we would throw it broke great it was a great pitch that broke a little bit it was a two run double. And it had backed up on hitters jammed him and they popped him -- I haven't seen I can't comment on it. I saw his hand grip on the paper it looked exactly like lap and circle change okay if he throws it with a circle change with the slider cut. The last thing touched the ball -- outside three fingers were tool human part about lopsided span. Which may be all that everybody's trying to perfect the changeup since the days of the fadeaway with Christine Mathis and and then after that it was. The guy who throws Carl Hubbell mom who struck out like four he we had screwball to that was the fadeaway okay it's a fadeaway fastball does catches on in your fingers and it looks hard but it just slips away -- usually -- away from power. And this kid throws it if he throughout. A gyro ball left handers. In this lleyton he's going to give up 75 really causes low they love -- the low stuff they -- solo stuff that's off speed little bit down and that's what -- feature well now unless unless the movement on it is such that he can catch inside that power. Spot in their in their area I don't know I don't know how much it -- have five pitches and and again if you if you five pitches he -- from all over the plate in varying speeds. You're gonna catch some of those guys -- If it's Mariana Rivera throws he throws Andy over the top fastball that with the error or seamer that rides in on left handers and right right is that the same thing is it throws does it eat people up. Does that make them swing over the top like did read Carlton that's -- slider. You know there's a different name but it's the physics of the ball right that I have to see and what part of the fingers he put on it because -- a chance somebody -- throw this pitch before -- very good chance of that but it wasn't called a general ball and his mystery -- he doesn't deny that it exists apart and yet they marketed a book on it if you don't call something different you can -- the ball. You know when they were looking for the northwest passage they called -- a certain thing -- after it was discovered. You know they changed that they were looking for the open -- and then there's. A warm current that goes to North -- these are all British explorers were dumb as a post and all they did was freeze to death they became popsicle so that they couldn't think of what the -- they were up -- reasoner I'm telling you made it if they were sold -- I can't believe the British define their -- while half British you know when I've found my hands. I hit it -- a threat to harder to find it's it's."

" Getting bigger by the day it's now the big Red Sox have showing his said he's going to. Going to play another year what do you think of this whole thing he's got for plays got his own blog now it doesn't company he's 40 years old to be 41 and he had said all along this -- final year 2007 and then. It got together with the kids they still that want to play another year they they like it now they kind of like please playing the Red Sox like whatever. So he says I don't play one more year but three weeks before spring training opened up he said I decide to play another year and I'd like get deal signed before spring training. And it's kind of rushing things a little bit based on -- after the Red Sox point of view of I didn't even know they had a deal with him or budget for him until three weeks before. And now the question is do they do they do these contracts during the year does Curt Schilling went -- to -- both sides want to wait and see how he comes out pitched is. Right now you -- you're good you get 15 million dollars to pitch another year. I mean of an effective pitcher in the big leagues now golfers money well there's."

" The old GM that was with Pittsburgh in what they. Branch Rickey you always get rid of a player one year too soon instead of one year too late right now everything's changed the pair dime -- switched to the agents and the players. But you know when your 40 years all. You know you're one bloody sock away from -- him up again hang it up so I I must vary I like. How do you assess high pitched last year I mean he did do you look like he had two more years left in -- at 15 and seven but 394 no he did and you know he comes out he's got good stuff -- you go into in the sixth seventh inning but he doesn't close anything anymore and that. You know it doesn't finish the deal but. We're designed in our league -- great start as a five quality innings grieve get about four point 5 run ERA yes that's a quality start. In the old days -- look for job in triple play that stroke things have victor -- your -- Tommy areas what three point 664 and I day. And I had seven and two thirds innings average average start right. And -- a lot of computer can't load a complete games in your career we all know that status is out the window now. The Red Sox had to as a team last year which is outrageous I completed one out of every three games start at some believable. At by you by today's standards so let's say we we accept that and we know okay though the the complete game is a thing of the past the closer is an automatic in in a lot of these situations who's going to close for like 2% papelbon doesn't want that job than he was great he was good and it -- How zero point 92 guys that's a rookie or second year player. Saying I am going to be in the start rotation. I mean if I said that I would have been traded. Which they tried to do many times where at what point did you did you. In what point your career did they say okay you're you're in the rotation and you stayed there fifth year. You know which is seven I earned it now because they were hurt 7372 I was almost traded they wanted to accurately but they gotta analyze helpers Danny -- that's right. And I was only as Lyle jumped in birthday cake of Tom not he's naked with a fast -- thing. Otherwise it would give me he was -- usual so he was the best at it sparky was the best never played high school all. Sparky Lyle sparky -- never besides who is he the last left handed Red Sox closer or or did -- Maier closed at barber -- he did for a couple years. They called the closing back then but it was it was mop it was called finishing he has -- get this get us started bill is our guest of course the space man but more the earth man because -- we got an email about this tonight. You he earned the nickname -- basement because you know you're perceived as set and we've heard that story did did you perceive this kind of you know crazy out there kind of guy. But is it not in fact that your your really most concerned with that the planet and -- Yeah it is yet -- compassionate miss and throw. Someone who really doesn't like people. And I always thought the planet would be better off with a lot of jerks off of it. You know I don't believe in capital punishment in -- get the pulled the trigger -- and I'm if you could kill somebody right now who deserves it -- you. Who would you pick I'd I'd probably suggest OJ Simpson to stop -- right now and I went to school today -- he still looking for the killer he's an up front if yes that's right the only. He's only got one endorsement left that's Wilkinson sword --"

" He's lost all that other -- all that's a Hertz rent the cars got but I mean who -- who do you think deserves to be punished in this world is here Al Gore talking about global warming are you a buyer of that whole theory yeah. Guys that's causing the old bars I mean polar barks at boulevards gotta swim a lot further than they used to be average I mean they're going to the -- bar it's. I idea you know I I'm mechanic guys it I get over that really man in a heartbeat over art beat them. I was mad that I have no and to kill right now but in 15 minutes -- find somebody one of our callers I don't care and now they'll. People it. Everybody on the show is got there watching the split screen listed and you and me and they're watch in that the big gate. The Bruins. Are there -- reluctance via an art ANH everybody's multitasking. And multitasking means getting nothing done it doing a lot of things but not really being perfectionist during the ball poorly I own no computer I -- cell -- I know that it's hard to -- you sometimes it is artery treatment if you get my voicemail I will return your call those things that's true that's the only way to get assesses -- and you don't know how often you're -- So you're gonna get back to rejoiced I'm on the coast I mean mumbled coast boy bi coastal -- when -- you've earned a reputation kind of as a person who -- speak up on any subject and when when the subject of the earth is presented to you and and all the ramifications of people's. Missed treatment of this planet -- sometimes go off of work to do it."

" Why do I do I look at the earth as the one celled organism IC no political boundaries from space I stay right. Out there and I believe that. We are only on this planet for the -- to country Rea that are in our cells that we don't know why they're there or anything else but they really like beer. As -- that's I know cells of all human wind went tequila in the -- in my body my body feels good and all the -- to country and myself are metabolize getting there having a wonderful parties work it and their only reason I am a host for those little organism this bacteria that swims around in my body. You know and I am here at his beck and call and post in along -- keep him happy and satisfied I will live on this planet. It has the same effect on your entire system -- yogurt has on your digest systems and things you know bacteria it's good back here good bacteria and I eat yogurt -- Kiefer. I like to mix Kiefer with a little bit pomegranate choose shaken up. You don't print -- down I eat a lot of rough age I eat a lot of fiber. I eat a lot of protein a lot of that. You know and people don't drink magic hat to -- Space man -- basement mail all in the summer because we only in the winner now is that coming out again this summer will be out will be at all the bars around Fenway Park and I'll be -- and and I I'd drink. Drink locally think globally you know you may not be in the Red Sox hall of -- we discussed that you should be but -- and you were and you will be but it. You you do have appeared named after you won how many those other guys in the Red Sox -- have a beard named after -- I have three documentaries avenue -- hire an outside. That comes out Mark okay that's better than being depressed and indoors where is that going to be shown all over. There's going to be -- like the other one -- one note on Nesta was very popular we're going to put up seats all over the place like the kkk going to sell it backyards with what it costs extra debt now I want takes up in the might movie. And departed start out exactly. They don't they do receive how to departed start -- about it police academy of something oh Louise day hicks. I don't are busting. All of that's right policy you've got the busing video mind starts exactly like that and it's a steal that from you and it's it's funny I did not know this but Jack Nicholson's and starts in my movie one flew over the group -- that's -- him when he's younger and night and it -- a pinball he has a duel particularly good Adam Massachusetts accent though that's the one thing you heard him minute movie is it Boston accent was off but he. But it was is -- may have been off but his actions. Yeah they've there was a group that was a scary move I've got that dvd in my house -- have them watch it I saw I saw a guy at the pace I paced around because I used to hang out with Kelly and all the guys car in all the guys were killed in the bottom of that that. Borrow girl. Over off the war and I went in there that night thing that you've missed out on that I missed out on Allen you know -- here 6177790850 toll free it's 8885250850 -- minute have you call it and you could talk baseball with bill -- a guy who spent what ten years due -- tying years under 42 days right that. And at a pretty damn good record with a Red Sox we've talked about that before. You had a great record gets the Yankees also mentioned that what was Erie was the night you -- Jim Bowden. And we know you're 12 and five against the Yankees lifetime we go look up his record he's 12 and five against the Red Sox fumble that was pretty strange. But what other teams did you would do well against Minnesota on your stories media the twins. When the 70s to a lot of left and it ball. Tigers may be no tigers wore me out today warm you know like. They were trouble for it. I couldn't McAuliffe a three run homer -- I'm the only guy I'd ever pitch a ball game give up two grand slams in one inning inactive the loss. Really comic whether it's such a decline done somebody know we had a to get back there again we are thwarted two -- with nobody Korea note."

" Bases were loaded -- base against Detroit they bring me strike the first cat on three pitches a necklace like the next cat on three pitches I got free and oh and two. And my ninth pitch -- to grand slam okay so it's 626464 guy walking guy again ground ball single and there. -- its first pitch grand slam. Eight big is beating you charge now those as the air. And that most of more McLaughlin in McLaughlin so some of the -- it was on first base on your first grand -- scored and became the winning run right. So you don't get along I don't get lost profligate July. I met -- McLaughlin asked. Good job you weasel out of that went rod rod data used sale was a fireman says I was apparently is a fireman economy with Rick and I that's gas throwing on. Mike in New Hampshire our first caller tonight yes segment here with Billy hi Mike. I don't make it happen I'd screw Mike he's gone let's go to Stephen Brockton Steve I don't."

" And don't oh -- thank you stick -- built -- are you very good thank you. But we played together back in the 90s -- Arizona all -- the ball catcher hold my. And Diego buried there and some of those other team."

" Yes yes yeah. You you golf fit thorny -- okay we had another catcher he was eat he would use a member at thorny leave. And he wouldn't catch me because he said Rolen is golf game. That pat all the -- I don't yeah sure that's not what league was picked pat. It -- the south shore and then we went to Arizona and that we perennial second place repeat the berries on that one year. We played four games in one day"

" and I remember the first few weeks that we play did. Your it was six teams in your division got to play each team those six games in four days in the divisional winners went on. Played the last two days but animals are for the world championship and -- going to the playoff to build this against. An eagle berries and it's probably 30 innings -- just -- that we so you know is almost a little side and they did beat and so the next year. Paterno we had a rematch against them in -- who appreciate that go on to win that world championship. -- so pumped up I wrote with a walk and back at what pace all week you know as a that we just in the playoff game. And so yeah. Before the game started. Miller played a little immediately sort of -- his -- mystery. Nicklaus saying you're the you're almost crash individual pumped up -- funeral with yes so you'll beat them back what. And sure enough opium pretty."

" Steve is he the most competitive bastard government --"

" I I'd never seen anything like it. As soon as -- seventh game of the World Series against Cincinnati -- how can get himself pumped up but that's but he did."

" Well the berries are good at one -- burger they had a bunch of guys that used to play pro ball they were perennial winners and they always wanted to play forum. And I don't like playing for clubs like that is there one hitter you remembered your career who you absolutely own disaster and never got anything off yet. Reggie Jackson you you loaned him I don't record because I hate Reggie Jackson."

" I can take something else so one negativity hate based. Colonial people."

" Life is only only look at spray the ball -- way to pitch believe thinks I'm crazy in the documentary says that I didn't like it off on me you know these that these Cory -- I guess -- help Mike Mike no one else in the world didn't like pace of frank Robinson is frank Robinson nasty -- He wore me out car killer grew warming up frank Howard I hated Richie Allen wore me out I mean -- lot of great theater I don't know against Mike Schmidt. Schmidt I didn't face him that much but he didn't hit me that well he was a dead pull hitter and I -- pitch him away got him -- and bake McBride I I I beat the Phillies. That's a lot of footage -- high and outside show me the -- that we as the Phillies -- Montreal with Montreal -- a lot of Montreal footage in this body you -- matches before refresh my memory you had you had this guy caught too -- from -- which catcher in the over 30 league. You had Gary Carter had Carl and -- which of them called a better game. While I would say Carter called a better game because he was quicker we are on a better temple. This was a great hitting catcher and took his time. And yeah I've bought a lot used to throw balls -- we used to room together people realize. In 72 we room together and we we fought a lot he throw the ball back catcher harder than I threw it wasn't -- I was pissed that. Yeah he was it was. He was always mad that I would shake him off for he was they can and I telling don't think you hurt the ball club let's work a little quicker hitters like. To be comfortable. And by changing the pace of the game and speeding problem you can make hitters step out if you could make it hitters step out on new you got -- thank you and you've got him thinking and the key is to make them think you don't think. And you worked there when I pitched a pitch for Brockton a year after that. I pitched I pitched to seven inning ball games in one day. And we ended up winning the third game lost the fourth game at 10 O'Clock at night and I mean. I still to this day I won the 60 you know right through 27 innings and 24 innings. For a bunch of Red Sox fans how many pitches. It is not a lot you know what I pitch every game might throw like 80 to 84 pitches you make a hit crap I'm make them -- everything I --"

" Let -- take quick little story honesty quick. We will play out Arizona playing in the playoffs it was a left handed batter -- That had trouble they would get up but -- clutch spot in the close game. The bill gets two strikes ahead of them right away so we got paid the plate. And -- over to the right side of the plate he looks up to build those winding up as a right into this year whose parents left and so are they couldn't get the ball."

" Double switch. Steve thanks for the call. Take a break bill lazier the space man when asked about any new books he might have written in the last couple months 6177790850 -- number per year. Baseball questions conversation will be back after --"

" Was this. I'm leaves us the business. Beautiful things notices. Yeah."

" Couldn't get it right there -- zone. Kept on looking for assignment and look at night -- think. And couldn't get it right. -- the average -- in its climax blues fifth. I had gotten the ball I'd never seen it was so many brain cells is that it's like five minutes. Like find an old she'd always your pocket when -- real hungry. And you put out your fingers get all -- either anyway 6177790858885250850 bill Lee is here the space man do you ever really loved that nickname but you except."

" But it except that it kinda had to I had two you don't pick your own nicknames are you now given to me by actually on Kennedy. The famous yet not the president not not the read that third baseman and the back in the Baltimore sun printed at lines first time ago. Once you -- on the headlines Baltimore -- never I never like might my nickname was kinda I each you know cooped for breeze just didn't work -- Night I try to make it work but it isn't enough it got depressing after awhile and the the the article that puts you -- in the the consciousness of of marijuana smoking people across this great nation of ours was the Sports Illustrated cover article. Right made -- high time limit the hover right times that yeah I've never seen them -- bond at at at at at high time -- subtle about it and it was that it was kind of like. Your pioneer to a to a degree because no also never admitted. Any such an affiliate and I didn't in the article now but they had you run there as the guy yet they did you know you were the guys -- the poster child we tune -- he wanted to in the worst way and did. It's gotten it got me for 250 dollar missed the misdemeanor. For using it as a condiment -- condiment on your tactics might we have a question becomes across our email planet -- WBI dot com email address. I have a question for Billy I remember hearing sometime ago that used sprinkling marijuana -- pancakes to quote kill the exhaust fumes while he was running is this a true story -- and how does that work that is a true story but it has nothing to do with back okay. And that's the you'll you're -- living I was. Yeah exactly they wanted to know there was a drug problem on the Red Sox and I said most definitely. They've been abusing nicotine alcohol and caffeine for wait too long and they must put a stop to -- right now and they -- I don't -- mean Merrill won races are one problem right you know when revenues and that's in 1962. You know and then an easy duque units they smoke and I says I use and then next Davis -- gently smokes pot and that's why train might dog there. And what's that guys still to this day of this they'll lose. That way can't believe Callahan and Thomas Thomas in the gym I tell. Needham I Tom Tom got a press a button here -- they're you'd. It's a long time not -- Let's go to -- in Foxboro since we have full lines that's easy Colin Howard you know. How old idea. Okay all -- the got emails of the 14 year old named Colin well see he's got patients he stays on the line because he's not doing his homework and there's not much else to do that's right. The Bruins -- plan doesn't have direct TV Colin."

" Thank -- that as far as our dialogue is not documentary -- the -- yet and a before that -- is bargain. And Mike I tocchet in -- and that I -- you know it's anger and we threw the ball in your in the since and I."

" Hey we don't play -- their face."

" And then I went home. And -- watching a documentary and I watched that in in the it any of those it."

" Well good like I say you'll play their face and now. One thing I know is how many times in your life you're going to be knocked down in the key light does get back that's right talent. Never forget those words. You know and -- may -- at the movie did added that the new movie high and outside you'll be -- that -- it's does PG 16 I got two years you know I maybe it looks older two years but if you look older you like Tom Hanks in big right. -- Colin thanks for the call --"

" But I had not yet etiquette. -- they have to. They pay him a lot of money and no one's going to take an injured it effective pitcher exactly well no they gotta set an in my house and I'll straighten him out. Yeah he's got he's under contract under the possibility as a miracle he recovers and actually can be effective -- and and have some value then that no one else is going to take them off your hands Colin nobody wants to trade for definitely gotta you gotta pay his salary right. That's why okay -- it's -- the call bill is in bath Maine hello bill"

Ask your question about that is there an article coming out about that -- times magazine. I'd don't think I'll OK it was I get this it's it's comin' out. In other magazine kind of -- publication on. But oh yeah that there's I'm doing a podcast on on I'd. You are -- that's coming heavy pressure comes to two of the Netherlands and beit judge. But he khmer want to contest.

I hope they do that abbey classic will -- band again and there I -- I'm my own little locker room in the Red Sox column today. But you can put together a bitches and you know he's going to devote games here which you can put together a pretty good team. From the 70s of guys you know that smoked pot home when a team one team they complain everyday Boykins they pitched it at -- it'd Everett you're next on sports radio I had."

" I I had on good. Go to a pleasure to talk Q well thanks from the 70s. Who was the general matter of sorts that O'Connell. Traded traded you post and."

" We all -- it was -- oh that was a price -- it would so well as a factor today revenge he's trying to take revenge on like we'd now all well he was with you gotta realize that was the body of the -- Haywood Sullivan 100000 dollars I'll -- the club permissive jock because I'm his illegitimate son right after. You know you gotta go back there and realize they financed it with the American finance corporation is 17 and three quarters percent they couldn't make payroll they had to get rent a car ball I protest that they said that you can't do that I said yes -- on the player -- in America let the stuff you know out there while depressed kind of backed up those guys. And they kind of said it was my fault that the collapse you know it was my fault I was ten and I was ten and six. -- 1010 I was benched and we lost and a 14 game lead on the Yankees I never pitch again in the Red Sox uniform. And we went on the lose a pop Bob's brow up the finish for me. And Bob's Rao won a total of no games is zero games in the differently and beetle Bailey who took Bernie Karbala spot as the D as the and as the pinch hitter took three straight fastballs by goose gossage. And sit down see you later where's Bernie is always I Don Zimmer robs one exactly on October I was on the 72 -- restaurant ski. Rounded third and ran hampering you ought to consecutive game."

" And it up after game behind of -- is always there -- last year I was there I -- I get violent -- athletic. He cliff keen.

" In the the story that I told you ordinary member they're amazed me it is is that -- not to not lose a young woman that. I used to take them for the marathon in every year you'd be at the marathon cynicism possible -- the tension in all the barrel."

" Easy I got knocked out the third inning and then all of -- reading -- for the rest of this game I'd say I could not it's that game.
