Playoff baseball in March.

Yeah.

And I think we're, like, you know, I just want to, you know, get everybody through.

And how exciting, like, the craziness of the Dominican Republic versus the, like, business-like of the U.S.

Or, you know, Japan kind of business-like in what they do.

And there's a lot of pride behind it, a lot of fun.

But, like, to hear that crowd last night.

Incredible.

Really incredible, and it's turned into this gigantic atmosphere and sense of pride, and it's really cool to watch.

It is.

Yeah, I think it's going to, and it already has.

You're always going to have, and I'm assuming we might go here, this worry of the home team's players, especially the arms.

And and that that's that's always going to kind of like pull it back.

You have the Scooble Scooble leaving yesterday and all these different things are going on.

And those factors, they'll pull it back.

It's like it is like an Olympic atmosphere, even more so because the amount of fans that are coming to it.

And it's and everybody's hungry for baseball to start again.

And I know that some people say they should do this during the All-Star break, which I don't disagree with.

but it kind of gives this like push into the season that adds this fanfare to it.

uh potentially affect how they would normally ramp up for a season and put them at risk if you were a pitcher well one thing i thought as that game ended last night was these these dudes everybody on these teams pitchers hitters whatever they're going to be ready to play at the beginning season there's going to be no walking into it it's almost going to be a letdown with the crowds compared to what they're into but as a pitcher i think the basically your time clock gets gets started earlier
