00:00What else can you say about the kid Bobby Witt, Jr.? The $281 million man in KC has

00:09been worth every single penny. Yesterday, three for four at the dish, a double, two

00:15home runs in four RBIs to lead the Royals to a victory in the series finale against

00:21the Red Sox, 8-4. KC avoids the sweep, extends their lead over Boston to a game and a half

00:28for that decisive third and final American League wildcard spot.

00:32Yeah, and you're taking a look at this too, and it's just, sometimes you say it's a shame

00:36like Bobby Witt, Jr. plays in Kansas City. Like, what would he be if he was in Los Angeles

00:39playing for the Dodgers or the Yankees in New York City? The kid is absolutely stellar

00:43every single night. And it's almost amazing. Oh, he only went two for five one night. Well,

00:47again, last night, three for four, four RBI, two more home runs. The kid's hitting 349

00:52on the season, 64 and 52 now for the Royals. We need them in the playoffs because we want

00:56to watch great players like Bobby Witt, Jr. And the rest of that lineup has been stepping

01:00up as well. We didn't have a lot of expectations coming into the season for Kansas City. Let's

01:04just say to make the playoffs, but I love what they've done so far. They got solid pitching.

01:08And when you pay a guy a couple hundred million dollars and he exceeds expectations, like

01:13his agent should go back to renegotiate that contract and get him an extra, maybe a hundred

01:17million dollars more. I mean, Kansas City public, you know what? That probably makes

01:20a lot of sense here. He has been phenomenal and so much fun to watch hitting for average

01:24and power. That's a rarity sometimes today in this sport.
