Who was? I think he were. Well, no, I'm Robbie. I'm sorry? No, you got it right.

I'm Robbie. I wasn't the one doing that. Oh, okay. Yeah. We were at the game today, and there was some criticism of, you know, the fans for cheering for Mike Trout for his triple. Yeah. Okay.

So the thing was, we were at the game, and, yeah, we watched that, and I didn't think there was that big a reaction to that. The Phillies, you know, at this point are sort of a bad team. Sort of, yeah. Yeah, and, you know, some people came out in the last two days to watch Mike Trout play seemed to annoy, you know, Rob Ellis. Rob Ellis was definitely annoyed by it.

Yeah, yeah, and that's the point. Which is kind of odd. A little bit. You know, because, I mean, this guy's sort of the new Mickey Mantle. Yeah. And, you know, I mean, he seemed to be annoyed by the notion that people would be interested in him. Who was?

Rob Ellis, I think. Yeah. Okay. I, so. I'm Rob. Pardon? No, I'm Rob. You're Rob? Yeah, I think the guy you were looking for is Josh.

That's the one that was saying the things about Tron. Sorry. Okay. You want me to get him in here? You can tell him. Let me get him in here. Josh. Go ahead. Get him in. to get him in here? Let me get him in here. Josh! Go ahead, get him in.

Josh, get in here. Hey, man, it's Josh. What's up? Hello? This is Josh. Josh, you're still annoyed by the enthusiasm from Mike Trout? A little bit, yeah. Yeah?

Mm-hmm. Okay. Can we make this quick, man? I was just on the John. I'm not even on the air right now. This is usually Rob's time. Oh. Yeah.

Okay. Can I go back to the John, or do you have anything else to say? Not really, except that, you know, I mean, I think some people came out to see him. And, you know, I mean, he's sort of the new Mickey Mantle. Yeah. And, you know, he had a triple. The Phillies didn't do anything. And, you know, that's about what happened today.

Hey, Rick. Yeah. Hold on a Hey, Rick? Yeah? Hold on a second. Let me get Adam in here for a second, because Adam's one of these guys that thinks the same way that Josh does, okay? So I want to have another guy listen to you tell the truth. Adam, come in here. All right, Adam.

This is Adam. Hello, Adam. Hey, Rick. Hello. Hey, this is Adam. Hello, Adam. Hey, Rick. Hello. Hey, this is Adam. What's up? I'm a little annoyed by... Were you annoyed by the Trout stuff? Yeah.

Okay, why? If you have a pretty bad team, Okay, why? If you have a pretty bad team and there's a good player in town and some people come out to watch him, why should this be annoying? Well, I just find it annoying. By the way, this is Adam. It's good to talk with you, Rick. I find it annoying. By the way, this is Adam. It's good to talk with you, Rick. I find it annoying. Okay.

Mm-hmm. So that's two of us. Let me see. There's one more. Get Farzad in here. Get Mark in here because Mark also, again, this is Rob here. Farzad is also in the same boat as these clowns. Farzad, get in here.

Hey, this is Mark. What's up, man? Hello? Hello. Hey, this is Mark. Hello. Hi, this is Mark. Who's this?

It's Rick. Hey, Rick. What's going on, buddy? You know, my friend and I went to the game today. And, you know, the Phillies performed badly. And then we, you know, were driving home and had to listen to a lot of nonsense about the adulation for Mike Trout. Yeah. Who's a pretty good player.

Yeah. And it's kind of hard to understand that because, you know, what do you want? I want the team, I want the fans to support the team. I understand that. I understand that and I've supported the team for quite a while and you know

was totally delighted you know by their championship and so on and so forth. But I don't understand the nonsense that went on there about, you know, why would people who grew up with Trout, you know. Which one of us are you talking to now, Rick? I'm sorry. Which one of us are you talking to?

I don't know which one. Well, this is Rob. Okay. And I'm Mark. And I'm Josh. I'm confused. Well, no, there's nothing to be confused about. Okay, go ahead.

No, this is Josh now. Okay. Which one do you want to talk to exactly? I don't know. I've been sitting here for, you know, like 20 minutes waiting to talk to you guys, and, you know. Well, no, this is Mark now now i was the one that initially said that i didn't get all the trout hype okay yeah i i well you know i kind of agree with you

the guys didn't like 270 okay but on the hand, he's a young star. People, you know, probably are going to come on and watch him. And, you know, what's the problem there? I don't know, Rick. You know, I don't know what these guys are even talking about, man. I'm Rob, the guy you originally called, and I enjoyed it thoroughly. What did you enjoy there? I enjoyed the game, and I enjoyed seeing

Mark Trout do well, or Mike Trout. I cheered for him. Well, that's what my friend and I were thinking going into that game, watching that. We were going to watch a good player, a mediocre team, and there you go.

All right, well, Rick, it was good talking to you, man. Thank you.
