Like that's what, you know, you go back to when you threw the no hitter to the Dodgers.
I mean, that's, you had all that scar tissue built up, right?
And you still found it.
It was like all this.
It was like, I literally was a thumber.
And it was a good thing.
I needed to do that because I just kept beating my head against a brick wall trying to throw 93-94 because my 93-94 was still reading on the gun, 93-94.
But Roger Clements told me this years ago, when you get older, you lose a foot on your fastball.
He didn't say anything about speed.
You don't lose any speed, really.
You might lose a little bit of speed, but even your 93, 94, you lose a foot on it.
It's the extension.
Now they got all these cameras.
They started that at the end of my career with the Dodgers.
They had a track man every time I threw a bullpen.
This was right at the beginning of all this.
I mean, they knew where my extension was.
They knew how my pitches were going to play against teams before I even started.
I'm sorry, but you were kind of the beginning of the Dodgers, this iteration of the Dodgers, right?
Was Friedman there when you were still there?
