00:00Martinez with the infield in, and Ramos is going to catch, and he's going to throw.

00:07There's the catch, here's the throw, and they got him!

00:16Now, back to Will and Divi on 95.7 The Game.

00:21NBC Sportsberry and Kipe's call of Ramos, gunning him down at the play.

00:27That was a big play last night.

00:28Big time.

00:29In the top of the ninth.

00:31Great throw, great catch, great tag, and the whole thing now can't impede the runner,

00:38but we've got to be close enough to where we catch and tag.

00:40The whole thing was just flawless and just got him.

00:43Got him by an absolute centimeter, and for the moment, it was Logan Porter's final act

00:51as a professional San Francisco Giant.

00:54It was his finest hour.

00:55Yeah, thank you.

00:57Hey, we got some funky stuff that you didn't see coming that we need to get to before we get back to Devers and the Giants,

01:05but apparently, Grandy, do we have a lineup for tonight?

01:10Indeed we do.

01:11Okay.

01:11And you said maybe there are some new wrinkles.

01:15There's some changes.

01:16Okay.

01:17Yeah.

01:17All right.

01:18You guys want to try to figure out what it is?

01:20I'd be fun.

01:21I'd love to.

01:22I have not seen it yet.

01:23Okay.

01:24Now, is there a left-handed starter?

01:27Is that right?

01:28Yes.

01:29Logan Allen.

01:30Confirmed?

01:31Triple confirmed?

01:32Confirmed.

01:32Logan Allen.

01:33And he's not an opener.

01:34He's an after a starting pitcher.

01:36Not a great one, but yes, he is a starting pitcher.

01:38All right.

01:40I'm going to give you a wrinkle right now.

01:42You're going to wrinkle his wrinkle?

01:43I say Elliot Ramos is leading off.

01:46Whoa.

01:48Aha.

01:49Yeah, Grandy.

01:50You thought you had me on that one.

01:52Eat it, Grandy.

01:53Eat it.

01:54Yeah.

01:54There's another spot in the lineup that I don't think you're going to get.

01:57All right.

01:58That was good.

01:59Ramos.

01:59That's off to you.

02:00Ramos is leading off.

02:02I think that they'll keep the next.

02:04You want to, like, do we go Adama's second, Devers' third?

02:07I would imagine so.

02:09Yeah, absolutely.

02:09Adama's second, Devers' third.

02:13Okay.

02:14All right.

02:14Now's where it gets interesting.

02:17Okay.

02:19We know that Flores is playing first.

02:21Yep.

02:22What else do we got?

02:24We got Jung-Hooley in center.

02:25Jung-Hooley in center.

02:27I imagine.

02:28The ball probably, hopefully, will get Schmidt on.

02:31Yeah, Schmidt will be at third.

02:33Fitzgerald will be at second.

02:34Right.

02:34And Bailey will catch.

02:35Bailey will catch.

02:36Who's playing right?

02:37Probably Yaz.

02:38Against the left even?

02:39Yeah.

02:40I'll help you guys out.

02:41But you named all of the right remaining position players.

02:44Okay.

02:44I would guess that batting fourth would be Wilmer Flores.

02:48Okay.

02:50All right.

02:50We got the first four all set.

02:54Now comes the hard part.

02:57Well, you got Jung-Hooley, Yaz, Schmidt, Fitzgerald, and Bailey are your remaining ones.

03:04Golly, where the hell is Jung-Hooley back tonight?

03:08Well.

03:09Okay.

03:10Go ahead.

03:10What were you going to say?

03:11I was going to say he's left-hand, right?

03:14Left-hand hitting?

03:15Yeah.

03:15Yaz is left-hand hitting?

03:16Correct.

03:17So you'd want to split them up, I would imagine.

03:19And Yaz is hot, by the way, too.

03:21He's hot.

03:22I think it would go Lee five, Yaz seven.

03:26And then that's just my gut.

03:28I defer to you, though.

03:29Randy said that there was another wrinkle.

03:31Yep.

03:32There's another wrinkle in there.

03:36Boy.

03:37I'm going to say that batting fifth after Flores is Mike Yastrzemski.

03:45You guys are both wrong.

03:47Oh!

03:48Oh, my God.

03:48I thought that was a new sounder.

03:50Ha!

03:52Lucas the Clown.

03:53All right.

03:53Who's batting fifth?

03:55Casey Schmidt is batting fifth.

03:57Yeah, okay.

03:57Casey, that'll make people really happy after last night.

04:01All right.

04:01So who's batting sixth?

04:02Well, now I would say probably Jung-Hoo Lee.

04:05Okay.

04:06Jung-Hoo Lee and then seven, eight, nine.

04:09Fitz, Yaz, and Bailey is what we have left.

04:11Right.

04:12Correct.

04:12So I would go.

04:13In some order.

04:13And you're coming off of Jung-Hoo Lee.

04:16So I'm going to go Yaz-Bailey-Fitz.

04:22Yaz-Bailey-Fitz?

04:24Yaz-Bailey-Fitz.

04:25You agree, Dibs?

04:25I personally would go Bailey-Yaz-Fitz, but I defer to Mark.

04:30Well, you made it easy, because yours are both wrong again.

04:32Oh!

04:32All right.

04:33Who is it?

04:34Batting seventh is Fitzgerald.

04:36Fitzgerald.

04:36Eighth, Yastrzemski.

04:37Bailey-Nighth.

04:38Bailey, okay.

04:39All right.

04:39They love that righty-lefty.

04:41So just real quick.

04:41Yeah.

04:42Ramos, Adamas, Devers, Flores, Schmidt, Jung-Hoo Lee, Fitzgerald, Yaz-Bailey.

04:47Okay.

04:48All right.

04:49Ramos.

04:50Go get them, boys.

04:51Hit them where they ain't.

04:53I like it.

04:53Yeah.

04:54That's exciting.

04:55And, you know, I do like the Adamas, Devers, 2-3.

04:58That, to me, is the one that you would want all year.

05:01Of course, and I can't wait until batting fifth is Matt Chapman rather than Casey Schmidt.

05:06Yeah.

05:07Do you know what I mean?

05:07Absolutely.

05:08Like, again, there are scenarios that exist that when Matt Chapman gets back, you have an

05:17opportunity to not make this your top five, but your top six.

05:22Your top six.

05:22Like, I think that the old standby, once everybody's healthy, my guess, Jung-Hoo Lee leads off,

05:31Adamas bats second, and then, obviously, Devers is going to bat third.

05:36It looked like, based off of last night, they kind of dig maybe Elliott Ramos batting fourth,

05:41and then you still have Flores and Chapman to play with.

05:45Now, do you want to do righty-righty-righty?

05:49Maybe they don't, so maybe somebody even drops down to seventh.

05:52But whatever.

05:54Whatever.

05:54The point is, is I think you've got six plus bats in a row that you could put at the top

06:01of the lineup.

06:02When Yaz goes on his streaks, he's, right, very serviceable.

06:06We'll see what Patrick Bailey can do.

06:08I tend to not mind about that because of the way he catches.

06:11And then, you know, Fitz is struggling right now, but, you know, whatever.

06:16Your second baseman, hopefully he can get it going a little bit.

06:19But that, to me, that's a lineup you can play with, man, especially with this pitching staff.

06:23Absolutely.

06:24And the key is, if you get six plus bats, and if Yaz can, you know, continue to contribute

06:30more regularly, then all of a sudden you don't have three automatic outs.

06:34This team has had three automatic outs for a long time, and no plus bats, really, or a

06:39plus bat here or there.

06:41And now you have legitimate bats, and if you can stretch the lineup, then you also reduce

06:45the number of players that are going to be in the lineup who are hitting below 200.

06:49I mean, I can just tell you, I bet a lot of you felt the same.

06:52When the top of the order was coming up last night, it was kind of like, all right, here

06:58we go.

06:59And it delivered some form of, like, action every single time it came up.

07:05They didn't always produce a run or two or whatever, but there were loud hits, there

07:12were people on base, they were threatening every single time they went through that portion

07:18of the order last night.

07:20And when it's five or six of your hitters, that comes at you fast.

07:24It does.

07:25It's kind of like the Dodger lineup, except for that one goes all the way through to nine.

07:28Right, exactly.

07:29And it feels like, as a Giants fan now, you can show up to a game and you can feel proud

07:35and you feel like you belong.

07:36You know, it's like when you're a kid and you show up with a backpack and your backpack

07:41is a hand-me-down from your older brother and everyone else has the shiny new Jantz port

07:45with all the fancy binders and you got some crappy backpack and now you've got one of these

07:50fancy backpacks too.

07:51So you pull up to the bus line and you feel like you're fitting in because you have what

07:56these other teams have.
