What insights does Rory provide from the Masters?
You know what, I'll give you a couple of the, since they're going to the Masters on CBS Sports Network, guys, I know you're leaving in a couple of moments, I'll give you a couple of Masters clips. So they had the ceremonial first tee. Jack Nicklaus almost killed someone on the left side. Did he really? No, no, no, but he still hit the ball. But he kind of pull-hooked one left and was laughing about it. But he's 86. He still can hit the ball, which is pretty good. Gary Player was out there as well. Gary Player is amazing. He's in awesome shape. Watching the, was it Grant, the Grant Horvat one? Yes. It was incredible watching him get around the golf course that he likes to still walk the farther distances.
Hey, dude, I saw him last year and ran into him. And, you know, he's just aware of everything, right? And all he talks about is how great America is. What a great country. What a great place to be. We're so lucky to be here. I mean, it's nonstop. And I totally appreciated everything he was saying, of course, but he is an amazing guy. How old is he now? He's got to be. He's got to be 83, 84, doesn't he? I wouldn't even be surprised if he's older than that. Just Google it. You think he's older than Jack? They were about the same when they came in, no? I want to say he's close to 90. But he could be. You might be right. He's in a lot better shape than Jack.
Well, he's been taking care of himself for 50 years.
The guy's unbelievable. Good for him. Still does like high kicks in the air.
He still exercises, yeah.
It's like amazing. And also eats properly. Anyhow, this was Rory yesterday as he is at Augusta as the defending champion.
Look, it feels absolutely incredible. Yeah, I can't believe it was 12 months ago that I was sitting here and sort of trying to take it all in. And now he is 90 years old.
Just think about that for a minute. I am. I've been thinking about it. I mean, so think about the things that he has lived through and has seen and still is playing golf upright, very spry. Yeah. Probably more spry than the five of us put together. Definitely me.
100%.
He's way more active than I am. 1936. Yeah. So he was a kid but lived through World War II. Huh. Huh. There's another one from Rory. What a ride it's been being the champion.
To be able to come back and do this press conference in a green jacket, that feels pretty good. But yeah, look, it's been an amazing 12 months. You're bringing this thing all around the world.
And they are off and running down in Augusta. The weather is absolutely perfect. as we are getting shots from the masters on the range, the intro on CBS Sports Network here in the studio. All right, so we get to the baseball from yesterday. We start with the Mets, who took on the Diamondbacks. Here's the payoff pitch to Lindor, and it's chopped to short, reaching down to a shoot, tops Perdomo to grab it, throws to first in time, and the ball game is over. Some of the Arizona Diamondbacks have even this series in a game of peace. Yes, they have. Hi, I'm Howie Rose on Mets Odyssey Radio.
Hi, I'm Howie Rose.
72 was the final score. Arizona put up five runs early on David Peterson, who was okay in innings three, four, and five, but those first two really put them in a hole they could not climb out of. That, though, is what Carlos Mendoza is going to focus on those latter innings.
I thought he made some good adjustments after they got him there in the second inning, but I think it's just the execution part. for the last couple turns you see that.
Mets used two pitchers. They went to Sean Minaya after Peterson. How did he feel he did?
Each day is just, you know, we're training in the right direction. You know, I thought my changeup and sweep were really good. And, you know, the sinker was kind of lost there. I think it was Perdomo and Talbot. But, you know, overall, I thought things were training in the right direction.
He went four innings, two runs, five hits, two walks, okay? And how about Benj? Everybody loves Benj around here. He did have a hit yesterday. This was Mendoza.
They were better at bats.
