Our most sincere thank you to Adam Amin for coming in yesterday in our studio and sharing stories about Stacey King. If you missed it, strongly recommend checking it out on our Odyssey app, on our Rewind feature, and also our featured clips. This is Rahimi Harrison-Grody on 104.3 The Score. On this Wednesday, Mark Grody is in, Layla Rahimi is in with you, and... Last night, I know we're on an office kick, Mark. I know you love watching The Office. I do too. We talk about it a lot. We heard Tyler Buderbaugh's open where The Office was mentioned yet again. That was fantastic. But... If last night wasn't watching the Cubs and the Sox at the same time last night, if that was not the episode of dueling Christmas parties where you have Angela's Christmas party, the Nutcracker Christmas, and that's the Cubs game.
And then you have Margarita karaoke Christmas for the Sox 80s broadcast. I don't know what is that was. That was clearly the winner was Sox game 80s broadcast Braden Montgomery out of a movie. Get the call up and then walk it off with your first career home run being the day you get called up in a walk-off situation. You could not have written it better last night.
No, you could not have. And I guess the one good thing about what you were saying with the dueling games is it made it a lot easier to know which game to follow. focus on, because that is always... I have two conundrums during Cubs and White Sox. You don't know which game to focus on. You have to kind of guess. You have to kind of feel your way through it, and you can have both on, but you know what I mean, that you can focus on it. It's also, Layla, very difficult for me to get my daily dose of office episodes in while I'm trying to watch a Cubs game and a White Sox game. But no, barely a problem. Yeah, it's like you're watching Eduardo Julien hitting another... RBI hit. A new Cubs killer is born.
Getting the Joey Weamer award.
Is that word of who Julianne left? Weamer! Not Weamer! Weamer is the opening day enemy of the Cubs and Matthew Boyd. Oh my goodness.
Getting the who's this guy today.
That Derek guy, like on the White Sox.
But last night was great. All in a game, by the way, Layla, which ended triumphantly. A beautiful broadcast about which we will speak.
But a game also where the manager, Will Vettable, and he was right after the game, saying the situational execution was honestly a disaster.
Close quote. And he's talking about all the bunting and he blamed himself. He did. Two, on the safety squeeze that he insisted upon attempting to run where Randall Gritchick was a dead duck at the plate.
But anyway... No, you know what? It's funny because you don't think, oh, this year that I worked with Will Venable when he was a player in San Diego would be such a definitive year for Will. Will, who has this multi-year career, of course, playing and then also working his way up through coaching staffs in the big leagues. But... The DNA of the Padres, where Bud Black was the manager. You had Ricky Renteria as the bench coach, by the way. Dave Roberts was your first base coach. And Trevor Hoffman's brother, Glenn, was third.
That's a crew. You cover that whole crew?
Wasn't that a lovely time? That's pretty sick. And I'm in San Diego.
That's awesome.
And then I left for Houston. So that just goes to show you my decision-making process. Where I also had a great job. But anyway, the point being... They did a lot of that. They did a lot of the manufacturing offense when Will was playing there.
What exciting moment did Braden Montgomery achieve in his MLB debut?
They did a lot of the double steal. They did a lot of the bunts. They did a lot of the hit and run. That was very much a part of that team. And I see it. I see the reflections of that time in how he manages a game. But for him to say, this wasn't the right thing to do. The fact that we were talking about a... Braves team that is arguably, it's either them or the Dodgers, as the far and away best team in baseball. They outlasted Matt Olsen with two home runs. When you look at it on its face, this is an absolutely fabulous mark for the Sox. Best win all season.
