Did you feel like you were in a game?

And so I'm talking to players and, you know, to a man, they're like, yeah, we had the juice.

We had the feel of a game.

They brought the PA announcer in, the music, the fans, the concession stands were open.

They put $31,000 in here, you know, and all the money goes to...

Phillies Charities, which is great.

So those are the kind of things you're trying to assemble, which will then, once the series starts, now you're into the baseball and the previous game.

The first game is always kind of the hardest because you're doing more setup and introducing two teams to a national audience.

And that does get a little mundane for the local fan.

So if you're a hardcore Dodgers fan,

or a hardcore Phillies fan, you've been watching your teams all year, that first game always feels like, ah, I know all this stuff.

But again, most of the audience is a national audience that hasn't been tapping in every day with the Phillies or the Dodgers.

So I'm trying to give a little bit of that

Bigger picture, this is like the path they went on.

So part of that is book work.

Part of that is just communicating with players and coaches.

Part of that is talking to Jeff Rancourt, my partner, and seeing kind of where he's at.

And, you know, we do a lot of these games on the Tuesday package.

So we've seen a lot of these teams, and obviously I see them when they come through Milwaukee.

Yeah.
