Day two of the Dan Patrick Hatrick. It's always great filling in. And we're famous. What could you say? I mean, you saw us on TV last night at the derby. Bushwacken.
Covino
I mean, it never gets old. It's. It's a tradition that I will do until I can bushwhack no longer.
Steve Cavino
Oh, man, it is the best thing we ever started. This tradition started many years ago. Our goal was just to get on TV like Beavis and Butthead. Whether it be. Whether it be behind a reporter, you know, on the news or bushwhacking in the stands. And it's such a thrill. It's the goofiest thing ever. If you've ever been on the big screen at a ball game.
Covino
Yeah.
Steve Cavino
You know, when you're just there and all of a sudden you're. You're on the big screen, you just lose your mind. That's how it is when the home run comes in your direction. So, yeah, there's a sense of showmanship because we're trying to get on tv, but that's just pure elation, pure excitement and joy. When the ball comes our way, it's the craziest feeling. And we just know that the cameras are there, so we might as well bushwhack like Luke and Butch from Yay.
Covino
From the wwe.
Steve Cavino
And we got a lot of airtime last night. Cause we found our way right there in left field. And what a night. It was electric last night. We got to tell you all about it. What's up, Danny G. What up?
Spot
Good morning. I think Jerry Wiley on social media, he posted this. He said it best. They got more airtime tonight than when they were actually on espn.
Steve Cavino
And you know what?
Covino
I can't disagree.
Steve Cavino
He's absolutely right. We had more fun, I'll tell you that. You know, so great last night. Baseball's really. They're really up to something remarkable. They figured it out. They got superstars. The event was amazing. And again, not our first rodeo. This is what, like our 10th, maybe home run derby we've ever gone to. And it was just as exciting, if not more than ever. Came down to the wire. Small market teams representing. So much to talk about.
Covino
Well, I was going to say there's so many angles from last night, but let me give everyone the quick backstory of Bushwhacking and Cavino and Rich. Just a quick backstory so you know what the heck we're talking about. So, like our first derby, what do you say? Maybe 10, 15 years ago.
Steve Cavino
Yeah.
Covino
We decided to tell our listeners, you guys look out for us tonight. We're going to try to get on the derby somehow, some way. Covino's going to be wearing the Yankee pinstripes.
Steve Cavino
It's like a little like, Where's Waldo sort of game. Like, I think I see you.
Covino
I'm going to rock, like my old school Mets jersey. So you'll see us together. And. And if we think the camera's on us, we'll start doing the Bushwhacker.
Steve Cavino
Whoa.
Covino
Remember the old WWE wrestlers.
Steve Cavino
Yay.
Covino
And we did it one year, and then the next year we're like, let's do it again. And like Kavino said, it became more fun to try to unintentionally get on TV than when we're intentionally on TV or broadcasting.
Steve Cavino
Well, not only a thrill for us, and it's a double thrill. The thrill of the home run ball coming in your direction and you're there sharing in the moment with the crowd, but the thrill of knowing that all your friends and listeners are going to see you on tv. So it's so funny.
Covino
I don't know how to. I don't know how to describe it because it sounds ridiculous, because not to brag, we've had TV shows on different networks, different, you know, things we've streamed, but.
Spot
Sounds like you're bragging when you are.
Covino
Unintentionally on TV like that. There's. There's more of a joy. Like Danny G. One time I went with my wife to a taping of the Bachelor. After the final rose, they panned in on me and my wife, like, clapping. More people hit me up for that than anything I've ever done on my own. So I think. I think people love to see someone they know.
Steve Cavino
Yeah.
Covino
At like, I guess you would say, like a unique event or something.
Steve Cavino
Right.
Covino
So last night, Home Run Derby, I will say this. We go to the derby with our credential. We have our press pass. We don't have an actual seat. So I say, covino, follow me. And I just sort of go to left field, walk down the aisle and I'm like, all right, I see some empty seats in, like, the fourth or fifth row in left field. I'm gonna sit there until someone tells us to move.
Steve Cavino
And guess what, Danny G. No one ever. No one ever came.
Covino
The girls ever came.
Steve Cavino
Nobody ever told us to move.
Spot
You know, it helped that the two guys you chose to sit next to were wearing bright neon colored shirts.
Steve Cavino
Not only that, bro, it's such a small world that the guy we were sitting next to is, like, from the same hometown as Rich in the same area.
Covino
He goes, yeah, let's go Mets. And he had a Met shirt on underneath his yellow neon shirt. And he goes, yeah, went to. I went to Sawonica High School in Long Island. I go, dude, I went. I went to his competing high school. Like, we live five minutes.
Steve Cavino
You went to Franklin Square Carry High? And Rich is like, yeah. So again, like, what a coincidence. How random is that? You have to realize Rich is from a small part of Long Island.
Covino
What's the random high school? We're in Atlanta.
Steve Cavino
We're in Atlanta. And they were welcoming of us to be there. And, yeah, it was easy to spot us because we're sitting next to two dudes in neon green shirts. And what an exciting event. We said it every year and every time, we're still coming off that high and all the feedback because people are like, dude, I saw you a million times. It was hilarious. But it is the greatest sporting event out of all four major sports. We're not saying World Series, Stanley Cup, NBA Finals. We're saying, like, as far as events, it's the most exciting.
Covino
Or the super bowl exhibition.
Spot
It's the best exhibition.
Steve Cavino
Best, by far the best, most fun you're going to have. If you have buddies you want to have fun with, if you have kids you want to build memories with, this is the event to go to. It surpasses the All Star game, I think, by a mile. In my opinion, that's how much fun it is.
Covino
Guys, I'm excited to go. I'm excited to go to the game tonight, but I told Kavino tonight and we're going to get to the derby in a second. Just our observations. If you go to Veenonrich at Rich Davis at Steve Cavino, you can see all the ridiculous photos and videos of us bushwhacking. But the game itself tonight, I said, I'm most excited about the player intros and the first couple innings. I said, you know what? Like, that's what I'm most excited about. The derby, to me, is the. That's the pinnacle.
Steve Cavino
Yeah. The All Star Game exhibition honor. It's special. You want to be there. Your heroes are all together. The camaraderie. You get to see everybody in one game compete. It's beautiful. The All Star game is great.
Covino
Yeah.
Steve Cavino
But the home run derby is just a spectacle. It's an event. It's fun, it's exciting. And there's nothing like seeing these dudes just tee off and hit bombs. Moonshots, I would say moonshot.
Covino
All night.
Steve Cavino
Moonshot. O', Neil, Cruz, Moonshot. Oh, my God.
Covino
Now, while Cal Raleigh. While Cal Raleigh won, I. I think the. The swing, I was most impressed by where I was like, I. I've seen this guy play a lot, but watching him just tee off. O', Neill, Cruz, that swing is just something to marvel at.
Steve Cavino
It is insane. Like, there's extra pop coming off that dude's bat.
Spot
And I thought Rich was going to say jazz chisel.
Steve Cavino
Oh, we're going to get to that. Well, we're going to get to that guy. But the feeling of. Now, Rich and I have never caught a foul ball or a home run out of all the games and derbies we've been to. Never. Yesterday, two balls came right at us. Literally one seat behind us. Literally one seat in front of us. But the feeling of that ball coming at you, it's like a very intimidating feeling because it's up there forever. And you feel like the chosen One of 55,000 people. Like, oh, my God, it's coming here now.
Spot
And you two jabronis had the big oversized. Oh, Covino. At least in the photos I saw you cove.
Steve Cavino
Oh, yeah.
Spot
Holding the big blue promotional glove they were giving away that mostly you see the little kids holding.
Steve Cavino
Yeah.
Spot
But here's Kovino. And you still couldn't catch the ball.
Steve Cavino
That was right above on me. You're absolutely right. But one came closer to Rich than it did to me. And he said, he. He'll tell you he chicken out.
Covino
There was part of me because. All right, so the one in front of me, someone in. In the row in front of us caught one. It was too shallow. There's no way I could have got it. The one that the guy caught, quitter right behind me. I. I second guessed. I'm like, if I would have jumped, I think I could have got a hand on it. But then I'm like, everyone's going at each other. If I jump, someone's gonna body check me and I'm gonna go over a chair because. Because I'll be honest, I was like, if I reached up. No, but I would have had to. Like.
Steve Cavino
But dude, if you've ever caught a home run, I'm sure people listening have.
Covino
Or feels like a meteor is falling out of the sky and it' oh my.
Steve Cavino
It's the weirdest feeling ever because you're looking up at the night sky and all you see is this ball coming in. Like everybody else phases you in that ball and you're like floating towards it and it's coming down to you and you're like, oh, no. It's the craziest feeling ever. We came so close. Yeah. But then it lands the guy behind us one time, straight up lost his mind. He lost his mind. I thought he was hearing.
Covino
I thought this guy was joking, Denny. But he was having almost like an out of body experience. Like he was so like baffled that he caught a ball. I thought he was honestly BSing us. Like he was goofing around.
Steve Cavino
He's gonna faint. Yeah, because he was screaming in pure excitement. And guys, if you want to see our pure joy at his finest, like truly the kid inside comes out just again, check our social media. Ovinohenrich, even at FoxSports Radio, you can see all the clips of us just losing our minds at the Home Run Derby because it is that fun to be there. And I highly suggest to meet us in Philly next year and then Chicago after.
Covino
Oh, damn.
Steve Cavino
Okay, that's our plan.
Covino
Next year's Philly, huh?
Steve Cavino
Yeah. And that's our plan. So again, we're Covino and Rich. We had a blast. We're excited for the game tonight, but let's get into this. Congratulations to Cal Raleigh, Seattle Mariners catcher, the big dumper hitting big bombs last.
Covino
Night, I mean, you knew it was going to happen because, I mean, not only did. Not only did McAfee stop start the Home Run Derby by saying the guy with the sweetest ass in baseball, Cal Raleigh, not only did you know he came into the derby as the biggest name in it.
Steve Cavino
I mean, he only got there by 0.96 inches. Not even an inch.
Covino
Didn't you lose a spring break contest by that same margin? Remember back? No, but I was gonna say he came in as the biggest name and the favor to win. He's the home run league leader right now. The only guy giving Aaron Judge a run for the mvp. And not only that, he had a premonition. Dude, have you seen that great video circulating on Tik Tok and Instagram where then this is the cool part about these athletes being so young, their lives have been recorded since they're babies because these kids were all born in the 2000s or late 90s. So you're looking at a dude who, his parents have video of him saying I'm going to be a home run champ one day.
Steve Cavino
And that's just another layer to the story. And what makes it beautiful, it's watching his kids childhood dream come true. And it was a family affair as they said over and over again. If you didn't know it, Cal Raleigh's dad was pitching to him. You got to think of all those days and years he was pitching to his kid in the backyard and working for this moment. And Cal's little brother was catching. And when I say little brother, the kid was a monster. But he was 15 years old and they kept saying that he may have been the MVP of the event because he was really hyping his brother up the whole time, coaching him along the way, hyping up the dad like we got it. Like just really.
Covino
Yeah.
Steve Cavino
Getting everybody involved in the moment. And again. What up, what up? Amount of pressure for a 15 year old kid to be a part of a major league baseball home run derby. That's awesome.
Spot
That was one of the most memorable moments when the time was running out and he got that last swing off and the catcher you're mentioning, kid pops up, dad turns around and they're all watching it. Barely clear the fence.
Covino
Barely.
Spot
They all celebrate together. That was one of the great moments.
Steve Cavino
It was a night of inches because again, Cal Raleigh only qualified because he beat Brent Rooker of the A's by 0.96 inches. As far as distance because it came down to they Both tied at 17.
Covino
How do you know?
Steve Cavino
That's, how do you know? And that's the difference between the robots know 0.08ft again because they both hit a 470 foot bomb. But Cal Rawlies was a little bit further and like Danny G said, he barely cleared the fence in that home run derby. Says who though? Elias of the that. I mean, Sports Bureau. I don't know.
Covino
So I mean, let's be honest, we all wanted Cal Raleigh. No offense to Rooker, but how do you, how do you measure that? Come on.
Steve Cavino
Well, it just adds to his magical season. How much does it add? We're going to debate that later on, but these are our observations. What were yours? What made you go, hmm, from the Home run Derby last night? We were there. We're gonna tell you everything we experienced again. 87799 on Fox. 87799 on Fox, we're live from All Star Village. You never know who's gonna stop by, but we do want to hear from you. And like I said before, not only is baseball getting it right and marketing their young superstars and everyone's pumped about it. As we've been saying, baseball's popping, but the major market teams really had no impact yesterday. Yeah, when you think about who had impact, it wasn't the Dodgers, it wasn't the Giants, it wasn't the Red Sox. It definitely wasn't the Yankees with Jazz Chisholm's three home runs. What a stinker he put up. It was all the small market teams, the Nationals, the Twins, the Pirates, Caminero with the Tampa Bay Rays, Brooker with the A's. So it's like all these young superstars from mid to small market teams that were really stepping up. And it goes to show you, like, man, there's a lot of stars in baseball.
Covino
Well, you're an American League east fan because you're a Yankee dude. There's a lot of people that are like Junior, Kevin Arrow, who that might have been their first look at this dude. If you're not a die hard baseball fan, you might have not even have heard of Junior.
Steve Cavino
He put up a great fight and a great night. But you know what it shows you, Rich, when you think of all these young names that are hitting moonshots and putting on this event last night. The MLB is setting up to be great for like the next 10 years. Yeah, like seriously. So we could ride this train and enjoy it for at least another 10 years because all these dudes are so young. And we just hope that more continue to come up and they influence more young players to continue playing baseball because these young dudes are really delivering. It's fun to watch. Count Raleigh's just another name to add to the list. Like, dude, what a show he put on. Congrats again to his family. It was a very special night. We were just honored to be there.
Covino
I think one of my observations, one of the things that made me go last night at the Home run Derby, I think Major League Baseball got it right. Meaning they figured out how to do the derby. Every year or so, every sport out there changes rules. They change the rules for a slam dunk contest or a three point shootout. There's like the magic ball or the golden ticket or ball Major League baseball. Remember, it's been out, it's been timed. There's been golden balls that count for more. I love the three minutes with a timeout reseeding after the first round because remember, there were years where like two guys faced off in the first round and they had the highest score and one of them was out. I love the fact that all eight guys went top four of the eight. Move on. Receding three minutes.
Steve Cavino
Leave your hairline out of this world.
Covino
One time out. And I thought it was the right way to do it. And, and the, and the bonus three outs untimed. Three outs with the extra out if you hit a ball certain distance. I think as far as the rules go, it moved and it was fair.
Spot
Yes, as far as the rules go, baseball has it right coverage wise. The only complaint I was seeing all over social media last night is people don't like the way ESPN split the screen.
Steve Cavino
I saw that. Now, again, that was after the fact. And I was going through social media, watching all of our clips of us clowning out in the outfield. A lot of people were buzzing about like, come on with that. The split screen was not the vibe last night, but congrats again to. Well, first off, like you said, Rich Junior Caminero of the Twins hit 15 in the finals, only to come up short to Cal Raleigh, who was just hitting bombs. And again, props to his family. But your observations, your thoughts, feel free to share them. I do got to say that Jazz Chisholm, I think he's just making excuses right now. He said he didn't want to mess up his swing.
Covino
Then don't do the Derby. You put.
Steve Cavino
He said he's not worried about it. He hit three home runs and 38 swings. As a Yankees fan, I almost wanted to put a bag on my head. An embarrassment.
Covino
Can I tell you? It's really funny.
Steve Cavino
But he said he didn't care. But I mean, you're human and you're a competitor. There is no way. I don't care how confident you are, I don't care how flash you are, how many home runs you have. Because he does have, what, 17 home runs at the All Star break. Yeah, he's an All Star. He belongs there. But there's no way he's okay with his performance.
Covino
By the way, I say putz lovingly. Jazz.
Steve Cavino
Seems like Jazz is great.
Covino
Seems like a great. He's great for the game, but I mean, that's sort of a poor performance. In fact, truth be told, I didn't see it. One time during the Home Run Derby, we were in left field. I had to pick a moment because we, Kavino and I are both starving because we did our show. We were hanging at the Fan fest, MLB Village, batting practice, you know, doing all the little challenges. Went home, recorded a bunch of stuff for SiriusXM. But we realized, like, yo, did you eat? I'm starving. So I volunteered. I said, you keep our seats warm, bro. You stay here. I'll go get us two drinks and what do you want? I went on a little food run. By the time I came back, I'm like, jazz Chisholm's done. And Kavina looks so like.
Steve Cavino
During week.
Spot
During one of the breaks, they had some high school students battle yo in the derby.
Covino
Right now they're using aluminum bats, but those kids were raking.
Steve Cavino
Yeah.
Spot
One of the kids hit, what, eight, nine to win it. And I was thinking, what's. What is Jazz thinking? Like, when he sees the high school.
Steve Cavino
Kid hit the kid, the kids are.
Covino
Teeing off that even though they were using aluminum bats, even with wood bats, those kids would have hit some bombs because they were. They were stroking. They had one.
Steve Cavino
Clarence Carter, bro.
Covino
They be stroking those kids, too. I don't think people see that on tv. Yeah, no, I don't think.
Spot
I think it's just for the stadium.
Covino
They have the two high school kids that are go for the championship, and they have one minute during a commercial break. One kid hit nine in a minute, and the other kid hit eight. And they weren't just clearing the fence. So. Aluminum bat. What gives you maybe an extra 50ft or so, but these guys are hitting 400. People asked.
Spot
It's the reason why, Rich, you think you can hit a home run in.
Covino
A MLB, which is why the challenge with an aluminum bat. 100. I can hit a. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
Steve Cavino
Pause. Yeah, pause. You're so full of yourself, it's crazy. I know you can hit.
Covino
Full of myself.
Steve Cavino
Yes, because you always discredit or undermine the pressure involved in the moment. You think you hit more bombs than Jazz Chisholm. He hit three when the bright lights were on. So when the pressures on you, if we really built up to this moment.
Covino
Yes.
Steve Cavino
You think you're hitting bombs. Like, there's a lot of pressure involved.
Covino
Aluminum bat.
Steve Cavino
Okay, but you're forgetting again, the pressure of the moment. You're immune to it, I guess. Wouldn't. But you are.
Covino
Wood bat. In my mind, I'm like, oh, crap. What if I have warning track power, but aluminum bat gives you an extra 50ft. Dude, if you. If you play rec, softball or baseball and you're hitting the ball 300ft with.
Steve Cavino
You know, I mean, better than anyone. You sound like a Bozo. That it's a rhythm, so you got to catch that rhythm. Is the rhythm gonna get you? Are you gonna get the rhythm?
Covino
Dude, Gloria Estefan.
Steve Cavino
I don't know about that. I don't doubt the power, the fact that you as a grown man could hit one out. I get it. But can you hit it out when it matters? And in that moment, if it was so easy, Jazz Chisholm would had more.
Covino
Than three in my. In my rhythm, in my mind, it's like, it depends on how long you have to. Like, if someone said, rich, you have 10 swings and that's it. Then you're in your head like, oh, crap, could you.
Steve Cavino
But you're all. You're also under a time limit when you're competing, so.
Covino
But three minutes, though. Three minutes with an aluminum that goes fast. Damn.
Steve Cavino
Well, no Iron Man. And by the way, how ironic would it be? I just want to throw it out there to say, I told you that.
Covino
Was going to happen.
Steve Cavino
How ironic would it be if Jazz Chisholm, who stunk it up last night with three home runs and 38 swings, how ironic would it be if he hit one tonight when it actually mattered in the game?
Covino
You know, it's so funny because he's capable of it.
Steve Cavino
We know that.
Covino
I was looking at DraftKings, but he didn't belong there.
Rich Davis
That's the truth.
Covino
I was looking at DraftKings before the Derby, and Cavino. So Adam, he's like, yo, I think Jazz Chisholm might pull the upset tonight. And because we're in the state of Georgia, I think things might be. I don't know what the gambling rules are. I was like, yeah, who cares? I was about to put, like, a hundo on Jazz Chisholm because Covino had a hunch. And I'm, like, so glad that that.
Steve Cavino
Hunch was built for that type of competition. But I thought he would come through just based on the way he swings, Right?
Covino
Yeah.
Steve Cavino
And how he's throwing 70% into his swing just to make good contact, put Goodwood on the ball. But he stunk it up, not to take away from the actual winner. Congrats, Seattle. You have a superstar. The first winner from Seattle Since Ken Griffey Jr. When your name's put in that company, you're having a season. And the first catcher, first switch hitter, I believe, to ever win the Home Run Derby.
Covino
You see that picture? The beautiful picture of Cal Raleigh as he's winning was taken by Ken Griffey Jr. That's so cool. Which I thought was cool.
Spot
At one point last night, everybody stood up, fans of all different teams and tipped their caps to Raleigh. It was a cool thing to see.
Steve Cavino
No, it is. It's cool. And what a season he's had. It's a magical one. Does that add to his MVP allure? We'll get to that later. We have a lot to get to later. And like I said, you never know who's going to stop by. But we had a great time. The pictures prove it. The video proves it again. Search ovinoenrich on social media or Fox Sports Radio.

Nothing gives me more childhood joy. I'm saying this, this is my quote. Quote me. Nothing gives me more childhood joy like the Home Run Derby. It's so much fun. I'm a stick in the mud. I'm sometimes too serious for my own good. When a home run is coming in my direction, I lose all cool or sense of, sense of anything.
Covino
I'm just like, ah, I'll be honest.
Steve Cavino
And I was bushwhacking my heart away last night, man. The Bushwhacker boys are back.
Covino
Rich, I want to talk about Cal Raleigh and Chisholm stinking and the whole derby, but.
Spot
And the kids dealing the home.
Covino
We got to talk about that. But, but not to sound self serving, but honestly, if you go to our Instagram at Coveenonrich, there's one picture in particular on our story I label pure joy because it just shows that you could be a grown ass 40 year old man and a home run comes in your direction, it's all star break. It's just so damn fun and I'll leave it at that. But Danny, I'm glad you brought up that kid. His name is Sam Musterer and he's the son of an official scorekeeper for the Atlanta Braves.
Steve Cavino
What's his name? Colonel Mustard.
Covino
Yeah, yeah, Colonel Mustard. Sam Musterer.
Steve Cavino
Sam Muster.
Covino
I think while they do tell these.
Steve Cavino
Kids, no, it's actually Sam Musterer.
Covino
Oh, there's three ers. Yeah, they tell the kids, stay away from the wall, don't do this. But you know what? If I'm that kid, I'm thinking effort. I just made a highlight reel forever. Everyone I know is like, yo, dude, Sam, you. Oh, you robbed cabin Arrow over home run. And it counted in the moment.
Steve Cavino
He was embarrassed. I could feel that, like, oh, no, I messed up the Home Run Derby.
Spot
He told the athletic that he didn't realize where he Was that he didn't, he didn't realize he was so close.
Steve Cavino
To the wall, which could have a snap.
Spot
But bro, you scaled the wall, though.
Steve Cavino
It was awesome.
Covino
Danny, I did notice one thing, and I know years ago because I did see a clip emerge on social media. It's like, look at Pete Alonso laughing while he just smoked a ball off some kid's head. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more because there are like high school kids that check the balls, but sometimes they'll rotate. Like, not to sound sexist, but they'll rotate in like young girls in the outfield.
Steve Cavino
Like maybe young football players settle down there, bro, it's 20, 25.
Covino
Get out of here. But you know what I mean? Like, they'll be like, my daughter's eight girls that seem not much older than my daughter.
Spot
And like, I'm trying to make it better because you're a girl, dad.
Steve Cavino
No, it is scary. Like I said, moonshots. And they're landing on little kids.
Covino
Like, if o' Neill Cruz doesn't get under one enough and he hits a 110 mile exit velocity ball, I'm surprised more kids aren't like, for real.
Steve Cavino
But props to Sam musterer. He's the 17 year old son of a Braves official score. That's how he gets out.
Covino
You think his dad got a little like, yo, your son's sort of effed up or not at all?
Steve Cavino
No, because they ended up calling it a home run and it sort of off the hook. And he's the most popular kid in school now as a result. That's a bragging, right? Forever. He had a home run snag at the Home Run Derby. Props to him. It was Junior Caminero's, I think. Was that the final round when he hit 15? It was right at the end of the competition. Oh my God, he needed three and.
Spot
He had three outs. Yeah, that's what it came down to. And one last thing on the kids, the high school kids and the even smaller kids shagging the balls in the outfield. There were MLB executives and employees in the row. Spotty and I were sitting in and the MLB lady sitting next to me, she was telling us about how they asked them to stay pretty much away from the warning track in the wall. And she, she had her eye on one girl that was in center field. This girl was like a bowling ball. She was pushing other little kids out of the way. So funny dove and caught a couple. These MLB employees had their eye on one specific girl in center field. And that was half their fun was watching the kids that they let onto the field.
Steve Cavino
Oh, and when you're at this event, we're really trying to encourage you guys to come and meet with us next year. Like I said, Philadelphia, then Chicago. I'm pretty sure that's the order we hope to be back. Not only does MLB get it right and have it right and have all these young stars that get us excited, but they're blasting music through the whole event, which I feel like adds to the fun. It's like you ever go to a, a family function or a birthday party and you go to the cookout and there's no music. It's just a gathering without the music. It's a party when you got the music playing. They were playing heat wave groove line.
Covino
But I wonder, did the players give their playlist? Because I, I know they were playing Metallica but I wonder, does Cal Raleigh want Metallica? He's a young man.
Steve Cavino
Cal Raleigh had Joker and the thief by Wolf mother playing in his final round.
Spot
But a lot of country music.
Steve Cavino
He had country. It was so much fun. The atmospher was electric. It was so much fun. And that just adds to it. The music, the excitement and just everybody having a great time. We hope you enjoyed it on TV and we hope to see you next year. We'll take the rest of your observations too. At 87799 on Fox Covino and Rich in for Dan Patrick.
Covino
Now, I, I said it before, but I'll say one more time. That video of him as a kid saying I'm going to be the home run champion and the fact that he was the little dumper, that's what he was.
Steve Cavino
Baby dumper, baby dump.
Covino
When you see videos like that, and I said it before, we're gonna see more and more and more and more of that because kids, Danny g, your son co is what, two. You and Brenda, your wife have what, maybe 50,000 photos and videos of him. Meanwhile, there might be years of your life that you have 10 photos. Oh, yeah.
Spot
I have three pictures of myself when I was a baby. Three.
Covino
Three baby photos.
Spot
There's easily 20,000 pictures.
Steve Cavino
And one of them is a mug shot, which is weird. I don't know. I don't know what Danny did in kindergarten stealing graham crackers.
Covino
He was feeling animal cookies. But I think it's interesting that we are going to start to see more and more athletes. Like here's their childhood video of them taking batting practice with their dad when they're five and it's gonna be like iPhone Footage. Because we forget that some of these young dudes, they're all born in the 2000s for the most part.
Steve Cavino
You know what? I think this does, too, to wrap it up, because we do want to talk about what you would give up for your team to win. We mentioned Cal Raleigh. He wins. He beats Junior Caminero. So a Seattle Mariner beats a twin. But you had the Nats represented, Pirates, Tampa Bay, the A's. How do these other superstars, household name superstars like Aaron Judge and Pete Alonso, former winner, how do they sit there and watch this? I know they're probably happy for the young guys, but as a competitor, you have to imagine that Pete Alonso has a little bit of FOMO not participating.
Covino
No.
Steve Cavino
He's won that title. No. Maybe it lights a fire for people to participate more and get involved again. You can't have jazz chisholms out there without Aaron Judge participating.
Covino
Because if.
Rich Davis
If.
Steve Cavino
I know, I know they've been there, done that.
Covino
No, no, but I'm saying, like, it would be like me saying, yo, Covino, tonight we're gonna go out to Magic City. I don't know, we're gonna have. For dinner. And then you say, nah, bro, I'm gonna stay home in my room. You made your choice. You could have come.
Steve Cavino
Aaron Judge, FOMO doesn't exist.
Covino
It does.
Steve Cavino
But you never, like, called out of something and regretted it.
Covino
Yeah, but I'm saying FOMO exists usually when fear of missing out. Fomo, when your buddies go out or your wife is doing something and you're like, oh, man, I couldn't go. I was caught at work. Or I had to watch my Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Aaron Judge, Pete Alonso, all these guys had every opportunity to participate. In fact, they would have absolutely taken the place of a junior or a Brooker or one of these younger dudes. Absolutely. So you can't say, man, they're sitting back watching and they're bummed. They had every chance and they just didn't want to do it.
Steve Cavino
Well, I think there's.
Covino
I think you know what it is.
Steve Cavino
It's like, I think Pete Alonso probably was kicking himself in the nards, thinking, I might have won. If I would have participated, I would have took that home, that sweet T mobile trophy and that chain. That chain was next level. Did you see it? It was dope.
Spot
Not only did I see it, did you guys see the stats on what kind of jewels were used?
Steve Cavino
I saw it. It looked impressive. And I saw they showed a video of them making it and everything. It looked really cool. And believe me, like, these are bragging rights. And I do, I hate to say it, I do think that winning it will add to Cal Raleigh's MVP chances, even though I think it shouldn't. So as a competitor and as a guy who won it, I think Pete Alonso probably is thinking, man, I, I probably should have did it, dude, everybody, he's human. Everybody has those feelings you call out of work or you call out on a party because your toe hurts and you're not feeling good, you feel bad about it later on. Like, I could have went. You don't think that guy could have is saying, me and I could have participated in one, could have done it maybe. But I think it lights a fire for more competition in the future. Congrats again to everybody. We hope you enjoyed it. And again, next we're gonna talk Brock Purdy and Jaron Duran, because they have something in common. Red Sox, Jaron Duran. And it has to do with what they'd be willing to do if they want it all. If they want it all. So what would you be willing to do or give up if it meant your team winning at all?
Covino
It's. It's a question that means more to people whose team has never won. So we'll break that down next. Kavino Rich, live from Atlanta All Star Village. And for the great Dan Patrick, be.

Steve Cavino
We are live from MLB All Star Village in Hotlanta. Really was hot and lucky. Besides all the excitement that we described for the past hour at the home run during derby, we were sweltering. It was hot and humid and sticky. Batwing duck, man. Batwing Duck, Yo.
Covino
Can I give props to truist with a Braves play? Not that expensive compared to other stadiums and food.
Steve Cavino
I thought you were gonna say beautiful ballpark.
Covino
I mean it was a beautiful ballpark.
Steve Cavino
Because it was my first time there. I was impressed.
Covino
It's sweet. It's a nice park. But I they have a chick fil a inside the stadium. I was expecting a chicken sandwich to be like 15, 20 bucks because it's a stadium. It's like nine bucks, which is like the same price almost outside the stadium.
Steve Cavino
What are you trying to say? I owe you nine bucks?
Covino
No, I mean, I got. By the way, though, I got Camino hot dog. It was like five bucks. So remember, Danny, you gave us that list of like, stadiums that were less expensive.
Spot
Yeah.
Covino
Atlanta brings it. So I'll give him that.
Steve Cavino
It's the ultimate baseball hot spot here in Atlanta.
Covino
Yeah, buddy.
Steve Cavino
You could be part of the excitement here at capital One all star Village through today. Head to the Cobb Galleria for baseball fun, live entertainment and interactive games. Buy tickets today@allstargame.com we're pumped for the game tonight, but had a great time last night, as we've told you over and over and over again. Now to wrap up everything for now, like I said, I think the competitive nature comes out. Not only do they want to win for the title, for the glory, but the prize and the trophy and that chain, now that means something. It's 14 karat gold. 50 carats on this bad boy says derby champ. Look at that thing, dude. 715 diamonds on this.
Spot
Yeah. They honored Hank aaron by having 715 diamonds. And did you see the. The rubies? 320 genuine natural Burmese rubies.
Steve Cavino
Thousand carat natural crystal quartz baseball. Georgia state stone is in this thing. But it was an impressive chain.
Covino
Little waste. Give the guy the million dollars.
Steve Cavino
You're a guy that doesn't wear a chain or jewelry or anything flashy ever.
Covino
I'm not mistaken for guys like Jazz.
Steve Cavino
Chisholm guys in the big leagues, guys with some swag, you know, guys not like you want that as part of the victory.
Covino
You think Cal Rowley wants some body ass?
Spot
You just see him, him on the big screen afterwards flashing that chain. Rich, he loved having that around.
Steve Cavino
Exactly. Rich. Like, Rich wears like generic sneakers. You think Rich cares about a chain?
Covino
I'm wearing nothing like.
Steve Cavino
But I'm saying, how are you gonna downplay like, yes, we're a nice knee. I wear them. Put those bad boys away. They stink. I'm gonna. Anyway, I'm gonna put your pandas away. Yeah, Rich is wearing Nike pandas. So anyway, is Cavino and Rich in for Dan Patrick? And we're excited about the game tonight, but we're halfway there. We're excited about the season. So we ask you Fox sports radio nation, Dan Patrick nation, Dan etz, everybody hanging out with us. What would you give up if it meant your team could win it all? Now Rich already said it before. It kind of matters more if your team hasn't won in a long time or ever for that matter.
Covino
Yeah, like if you're a Dodgers fan and be like what would you give up for a World Series? Like, I don't know, like nothing. You won last year. You could, you could. The stakes are not the same.
Steve Cavino
Like, I mean, unless you're super die hard wackadoodle fan before it, before 2016.
Covino
Ask a Cub fan this before 2004, ask a Red Sox fan this and you might get a different answer. Ask a New York jets fan what would you do for a Super Bowl. Better yet, a Cleveland Browns fan. The answers are going to vary based.
Steve Cavino
On I'm ask Spot what he would do for a Klondike Bar. Would you do Spot?
Covino
What would you do?
Steve Cavino
He's thinking about it. There's two related stories as to why we even bring this up. One of them involves your boy Brock Purdy. Now, behind the scenes when we're doing our show and we're just sitting there bantering but we drift off, we start looking at the monitors. We have TV screens all throughout the FOX Sports Radio studios in la. I remember seeing this clip. I forget I want to give credit credit to the show but your boy Brock Purdy's sitting there like a little schoolboy. He looks like he's 15 years old being interviewed on some.
Covino
He was on bus with the boys.
Steve Cavino
Was it bustin with the boys? He's on some show and I see the little caption come up and it says I would do prison time if it meant winning a Super Bowl.
Covino
He said he would spend one year in jail.
Steve Cavino
He would give up one year of his life in prison for a Super Bowl.
Covino
Well, how tired of what type of prison is this?
Steve Cavino
Yeah, exactly. I think that matters. And Jaron Durant of the Red Sox also said he'd give up some stuff. We'll tell you all about it. But what would you give up if it meant your team won it all?
Covino
Yeah, I have a. I have a dirty layer to this question. We'll get to next. Kavino and Rich in for Dan Patrick live from Atlanta All Star Village of Major League Baseball. Let's go.
