There's just that one octave.

I wish he could be a dance man, but a song man, absolutely.

Mike, you're right.

It's insane, Dan.

I'm watching the Dominican Republic last night, and they are celebrating as if they're curing cancer.

Like Juan Soto's home run is epic, and Fernando Tatis had a bat flip for the ages.

It was so incredible to watch that game last night, and it's riveting.

And it's funny how this has grown in popularity.

You know this as well as I do.

The Latin American countries have always gravitated to this tournament because it is truly an expression of the world's best.

It's about patriotism and celebrating a great game.

But now, everybody else is in.

Like, before it was, okay, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, they love it.

Now, no, the USA roster has Skeens and Skubal, and we'll get to USA's predicament.

The reason I'm wearing a Team Canada hat, for the first time, Canada advances out of the group stage.

We're in the quarterfinals against the Big Bad Americans, first time in 20 years.

How about Ernie Witt, the long-suffering manager, and, yes, Canadian icon Stubby Clap, who is the first base coach?

It is riveting entertainment.

I think, Dan, quite honestly, it's because the guys care.

If they're into it, it blows the doors off Cactus League or Grapefruit League or any league, quite frankly, because they're so passionate about it.
