00:00Here's Mel Allen from 1989.
00:03Have you heard the song, We Won't Get Pulled Again?
00:07Ozzy Guillen hasn't. Look.
00:09He throw the first.
00:11Getting Guillen back.
00:12Guillen's out!
00:13He took his chance.
00:14The hidden ball trick is a ruse that might get you once when you're a kid.
00:18But it didn't just get big kid Ozzy Guillen once in 89.
00:22It got him twice.
00:25Well, I remember the first one.
00:27I was in Milwaukee.
00:28And I got a trick that, you know, they hide the ball and they give me out.
00:32I just walk off the field like, you know, not the idiot back in the baseball game.
00:36Poor old Ozzy.
00:38First he gets it from Greg Brock.
00:40And then he has to contend with the master, Dave Bergman.
00:43Ozzy had a habit of sliding back into first and then taking his hand off the base and putting his foot on it.
00:49And that's something you don't do so I got to tag him out.
00:52And he's out.
00:52That's the second time Ozzy Guillen has had that habit to get the season.
00:56The trick with the whole thing was, is that you can't do it too often.
01:00You know, because if you're doing it all the time, then the element of surprise is gone.
01:05Went here, kept the ball, tagged him out.
01:08See you later.
01:09That's very embarrassing.
01:10We played against Detroit and they did it to me again, but the guy almost took my head off.
01:22I was so embarrassed and I don't want to go back to the dugout because I just, that thing happened.
01:27Like two, three days before that, the first time and then you get caught again.
01:30I guess I was struggling in that moment and I was excited to be in first base.
01:34The ugly thing is when you do it a lot and they did it to you.
01:39That's the most embarrassing.
01:40It's the old hidden ball trick.
01:43Ouch!
01:43It's the old hidden ball trick.
