[13:59] ..." much and best of luck today. You take care that is that John Gibbons the manager of the Toronto Blue Jays joining us from his office at. At Fenway Park all as managers there you know"...
[0:00]" Tonight at Fenway Park it is the -- final game of the very quick two game series. Between the Boston Red Sox in the Toronto Blue Jays and joining us on the line right now is the manager of the blue jays John Gibbons John it's dale and Michael in Boston how aria."
[0:14]" my underdog candidate based -- every done that in quite expected but. Of the sport to this session here."
[0:21]" Appreciate it. -- yeah I always wonder about coaches and in baseball case managers who who have -- very realistic injury things that they have to -- coach or manager around. But they can't refer to them they can't talk about -- make -- make excuses mora but it doesn't mean they're any less obvious or any less real red. Issues that yet to deal"
[0:41]" there's no question about it the it ready to go to the season. In need a pitcher to pitcher 25 guys together in. You know you'd be built in debt debt the debt -- apparently continued education goes wrong in. In the it would it would happen here is if we can't correct about it but you know that we've been hit pretty good break was key guys into the closer. Our big run produces lots of -- they're -- ate Guinea Garrett have they were not we're not doing what happens to assist you that he. You'd like at least try to spread it -- a little bit you know stated it you know once but if you -- the reality of the business. You know -- in penalties were called small budget team anymore. But -- budget and there's not a lot of extra -- need PDT good gets of the but he is. Respect grab some -- that's kind of where babies disadvantages are but you know -- not feeling -- you -- you have you know zero until -- respectful -- tonight you'll."
[1:37]" John we have about JP on last week and he said. Even though he didn't like losing B. J. Ryan did have a replacement in enough Fraser well. From a managerial perspective how did that loss of BJ reconfigure your bullpen."
[1:54]" Well here Batman Adam look at little effort is that I guess but it -- You know -- can -- that it -- solid closer mean and that that's been proven in this position that we we -- about being -- Frazier in in that role but you know Ryan was one of the elite. Beat guys in the game in the in you know what he did force last year made huge difference in it was spent a lot of money on him because you know what he's cable bill -- and -- You know catch concerted were open you know would it would on the best case scenario we hope Beckett too much the you know it gets up look up to what happens is. Owners even desperate trade and we we took -- gently. Lieutenant -- up their but it anyway in the you know and they lose -- today get a picture bring forward in this type -- There are expected they were -- some young guys to come through due to job and admit fully capable of expect beaches are still they cut their teeth in the big league so to this point -- take what they've all it's very had been -- we've we've lust and we've got a -- leads to start the season but that means that it would make everybody does have the beat these guys be fighting just academic effort. But you know I can minimize damage you drive it's two big blow."
[3:05]" for a little while now you've been talking about -- a little thing that could turn your team around the key here at a key defensive play and an up a mistake even perhaps by the opponent. And I think that was partly imply it last night you guys got key hits when you needed him sometimes it's a little thing like that that turns."
[3:21]" That's saturated BQ below bladed -- get into believing in the first -- you know it with a stolen base but I wells. In you know the ball kicks -- little glove an -- we get a run in their we've been we've been -- transplant -- anyway and then again but I -- I'm Rios with two out to eat in a soft liner to left field that you know we're open of drought for. Instead her bears reached but he made -- to get he has yet to -- that you did you know ball. All the fault maybe Dickey -- trip out there who knows that but didn't obscure that they had taken the lead and we and we we get pounded away -- most blatant that's been here very good in this ballpark in -- of the the other better teams -- the best in any Turkey get here in its been way kind of forced UBS -- game because you know -- that that you're exposed."
[4:07]" A dollar asked about a decision -- last week it was holiday versus arguably Tarvaris in Toronto holiday was really pitching well against the Red Sox and take my of the game. I was sitting watching and homes and why that happened to the Red Sox -- there's probably what was the what was the reason for taking him out."
[4:25]" But I do you are the only -- I think he'll have to iron and I don't look at it this way ever rodeo it and X-Men at a position yet it's. You know and it's you know any -- Arafat -- of -- much different by the way the way I look at game as well got 82 guys to immediately tough sitting in. It was. You know in my opinion that Ortiz spread it to this the American -- all of baseball he's appeared to rule you know with. You know he's got -- based. You know when you pitchers fresh it regardless city you know who's on the mound that at that point you know it. It's we get we get -- maybe get this thing like down against. Big Papi Hideki came amid an -- get the strike -- you know it was we just didn't get rumors that that we went to. Marcum you know hopefully -- bears bears cooled off. In -- you know and market just two days are that you know what -- ability for Atlanta perceive Soviet those things all the -- well you know again. Immediate factor silly -- intimidate there's no question backfired. You know you know Roy it was -- Austria and inactivity that it is time before. If you want to read an article myself to get to Texas mean this kid you know he's -- the last couple years. It's come up -- year you know with it was this former executives who were turned -- such as well early in the year. When recognition beyond that because it dead deftly catches up with it's evident. They used to -- comedic -- registrar or. You know you keep you'd be -- 220 entered did tonight to cover yourself -- you know what to settle in to the etiquette and there let's get to get the very little thing or Kenny gets --"
[6:02]" It doesn't a number and it."
[6:06]" The magnitude of the game bush is a little bit different no question about -- every -- mind if it backfires. You know we figured we better -- but he -- bears. In that was cut about you know what they're still we can mitigate tightly again at third base -- in about it and chipped away at their bit. -- to think about manager -- and you know -- and take your best blue -- are in terms of your worst ridiculous though like rose two. They predicted definitely lives -- request because he's arguably you know that the top pitcher after request"
[6:38]" I was wondering about and we asked Tito about this about how you decide when you take guys out. In -- tendency when you got a guy who you know was a horse like halladay he has -- almost have to say all right I know like and send him back out there again. But I can't do it is there a tendency to manage differently with him than you might other pitchers."
[6:55]" Well you know basically spray you but it really isn't because you get picked they're -- point you know immediate needed there's still humid but you don't want to -- and -- You know we're re east that is effective -- either and I collected that would that wanted -- he gave up the hit and you know eight to three straight balls and duke was up around his neck and he never does -- I mean it's to tell me limping Italy maybe little -- if you look tired. In -- get Ortiz homered to river on the -- get more big Pittsburgh less through four years anybody out there so. You don't attitude did everything we needed to do they were -- campanella any you -- to the black technical in their. It was actually in -- piece of that. You know won't be the first if they're not the first pulled surely won't be the last but there's a lot dignity that they should not always anything to do. They want to stay at their you know it'd be easy choice Caitlin go in the in you're covered but I don't think it's more baseball news."
[7:49]" Hey John you've seen Jonathan Papelbon had his way it was some great hitters in the American league Yankees he had a great save in Texas one guy though. That he doesn't have an easy time with this Alex Rios tell us why Rios is such a good player good hitter."
[8:05]" Well nobody is -- stretch of the surface in you know in these first couple years a period. In history power he took a lot of heat of the extra day you know with no power numbers -- Lester Kerry came into his own it was tipped or pitched great starting to -- but toaster team. Evidently you wish you get better better in you know for the success is to have but I mean who knows. I mean very few guys that Italy is very good fastball hitter. They let Petitti rises to occasion in in the you know -- look at distinctive who have been awfully continue to today against the bears should separate and so. India it is going to get attacked about a but actually you know papelbon -- so overpowering. You know it's hard to figure out -- can -- you know anybody in the -- you -- the you know some some hitters don't certain pitchers some pitchers don't certain -- this is where it is."
[8:57]" In every other sport their head coaches in baseball their managers and I always think it's because. A big part of your job is just managing the clubhouse and managing in it that the dugout. How do you break it down how much strategy and and it's hard baseball decisions and how much of it is keeping everybody you know -- on the rope in the same place."
[9:17]" I'd -- that this stuff that happens you know away from the field him in the club house burned -- that these -- there is definitely much tougher and you know me it's gutsy play plane we negate every day's skater can actually read each other -- any added. You know he's not always to to get put out fires here and there. You know somebody that rights of the press that a guy -- together. In the get a -- that and all of those who think that they you know baseball is baseball that it is there's blood australian goes on but you know it. I don't feuded like a football world Xs and -- at baker economy and keep me keep make big difference in the ball game -- Baseball he pretty much it's you can't valuable pretty pitching staff is is where are using when it comes down to the -- or two different games were you know. Sergei to me you're that your team might bunt that mean majority of -- situation maybe decent hit and run in her things like -- pretty much failure it's just and then it is just told the team together you know in the most of the guys in the you know he got to deal with all the different personality gets all over the world of parts of the country and -- that's biggest out anticipated -- to get in the game in the in the so but baseball you know it's. Is best we keep take simple. In the end just try to hit he -- steps mister Kidd and."
[10:34]" speaking of handling different personalities in keeping that in keeping the team together. Last year with Shea Hillenbrand that the most challenging moments you had as a manager."
[10:44]" Well eight I have been doing a -- beyond me establish Islamist figure and it -- an isolated taking immediate dedicated to stick things -- building in overtime in. Divorce thing I'd do it in the premise of -- and have a -- want them from -- you know that I just didn't get it deep into the to the rookie I think that's we gotta be in in them which he also expect edit return. It was unfortunate what happened which you know we've moved up -- releasing later and later the years. Everything it can carry great great friend you know just what it was -- heated moment of frustration on both sides in an -- He can't get a reputation people -- used guys I didn't know that and -- not a case but. I also added that the demand allowed today in you know if you get to you get tickets -- on the wrong so. You know opportunity 11 -- from the -- it was it is very -- very embarrassing it is but. You know sometimes things get -- do."
[11:47]" Only four teams in baseball had a winning record at Fenway Park last year and you guys were one of them. Why does your team have so much is that success here when so many other teams have problems here."
[11:58]" Well that's you know to just like -- you know you really don't know but affected you know we we do we just we play great here I think. You know way to bring -- bested the crowds the intensity at which seemed to write the occasion it's. Anyway we met a pretty good in certain areas it's certain pitchers in the things like dead -- which helps. So let's you know it's it's not easy thing to do -- mediate. He just he's -- even when you go into the series history it steered series you know you're opened if you went to ministry feeling great which at least going to try to get one within because it's it be to -- Yankee stadium out of place to play in the it's but. I can't put a figure and effective you know Kosovo we we rise -- occasions we'd like to challenge in we've matchup supposed to get."
[12:44]" John -- we understand you have local ties here could you tell us about that."
[12:48]" We got so -- my character from the way they did it lay claim Pigram Beverly and Beverly animate dead. Stanley headed -- to business over Marblehead and but I have to join the military and we bounced around in the end and have their detection teams station down there in the back. -- causes of Gloucester in my grandmother still lives and in 29 each of upper 90s force you -- Beverly what hitter it's sex games. It's so this is you know keep let it -- that it don't tell anybody that's. In an up and I'd love -- part of the country it's so -- history of this is really there. The country originated right here in the in the it was a there's such passionate every year. Everywhere like -- sports or life it's an exciting place to go visit. The chip average in New England -- to get a get the jets I didn't."
[13:39]" J yeah and I -- he retired the other way and let's be honest that rolled it sound like anybody in Beverly or Gloucester. --"
[13:47]" Atlanta my mother still hold period very action but rather catalyst is. If you I was almost forced to lose if it would be accepted that"
[13:57]" job we appreciate stick in a few minutes thank you very much and best of luck today. You take care that is that John Gibbons the manager of the Toronto Blue Jays joining us from his office at. At Fenway Park all as managers there you know all day every day in"
