two innings later right in the eighth inning so he's he's getting more and more comfortable and chris was talking about it chris larue was talking about it on the broadcast how the average for so long was right around the mendoza line this season and you're up to 235 for okamoto and suddenly it looks like a much bigger threat and a guy who even when barger comes back now and obviously uh

Terrible for George Springer to go down, and we'll talk about that too.

But to have Okamoto behind Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

now, having the damage that his bat can cause is so massive for this team, and it's just beautiful to see.

Because this is what fans do, and this is what people who love a baseball team and love a sports team do.

They jump to conclusions very quickly, and when it was not going well for Okamoto after the first series,

When he had that home run in the first series of the season, people were like, well, it might not happen with him.

And we've seen that now.

That is not true.

The guy could play.

But it didn't even look like he...

crushed it.

It really didn't.

That's the thing.

It's like, it's just unbelievable.

It's like a bat has an extra juice on it.

Like maybe it's those bats, the torpedo bats, the Yankees were using last year.

Maybe he's got one that we're just not aware of.

Cause there's something there where it just pings right off the bat and flies.

It looks like a, not a lazy fly out, but it looks like it might get out.
