So I was having a lot more fun and I was having, uh, I was having a blast.

I couldn't wait to throw a baseball just to throw the slider, you know, and it was something like that, something so small and, and, um, you know, and,

it took my mind away from, oh my gosh, I'm on the Dodgers to all the, you know, the extremes of, you know, I'm sharing a locker room with all these greats and, you know, the fan base is, you know, amazing and it's loud every night.

And, you know, it took all that away just to, I wanted to get on the mound and just like, I could throw a slider.

I'm going to show, I'm going to throw a slider, you know?

And so that was the fun for me.

And, and, you know, and everything just kind of worked, just fell into place, you know?

Just kept working at it, just kept working at it.

And, you know, ultimately it got me to a point where, you know, I looked up and it was at the end of the year, we're going into the playoffs.

I was just like, geez, this is crazy.

But, you know, let's just continue doing what we're doing.

And, you know, at the end of the year, we can look back and enjoy it.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

So I was doing a lot of that.

You were making fans into houses?

No, no, I wasn't doing that.

It was almost like ASMR for me.

And it was like, you know, I would just get on YouTube at night.

It was just like I'd prop my iPad up and I would watch somebody convert a band into some awesome looking band.

mobile home you know and it was like that's kind of cool like you know how do these people have the time and and and understand like you know learn how to do this stuff and it's like see like if these people can do it i can learn anything you know you can learn anything just put the work in you know and so it became like very like uh satisfying to me to watch and it was rewarding because you know
