 like there were a couple tough calls at least a lot of calls that Aaron Boone did not agree with. Do you like the fact that your manager kind of goes to bat for you guys when he doesn't necessarily agree with the strike zone? Oh, always, always. Because it's either going to be him or it's going to be me. And I appreciate him standing up for us and, you know, kind of speaking our mind how we're all feeling and he's done that quite a bit for us, you know, over his career here with us. So, but like I said, you know, I can look back on a lot of those at bats, you know, tonight that, you know, I got to pitch, I got to pitch a hit and, you know, I miss my pitch. And then, you know, a pitcher makes a great pitch, you know, either it's on the corner or down or, you know, whatever he gets a call. So it's this part of it. I got to do a better job. Aaron, you're a rare player that's never been thrown out of a game before. Have you, you know, most guys have. Does it ever go through your mind that maybe it would benefit you as you phrased it blowing up one time? No. I don't see, I don't see how that benefits anybody. I'm, you know, I don't think I'm out of the game if I get thrown out there. You know, I could see maybe if it's in the game or something late, but, you know, when that bat ain't going to dictate anything, every time I step up to the plate, you know, I can change the game. So I'm going to speak my mind always, you know, let them know how I feel and let them know they missed that call. And it's time to move on. The game's too important, you know, the next that bat, you know, the next pitch they got behind me, that pitch is too important for me to, you know, sit up there and, you know, talk about me, me, me, you know, my call, this and that. So, I don't know if I'll be getting tossed anytime soon, mostly. When you're frustrated, how do you keep from blowing up mentally? Oh, I just look at my teammates. I got anything in reserve coming up behind me in a big spot or a big situation. And, you know, I turn my, turn my focus to him and, you know, trying to be a good teammate and cheering him on. You know, that's what this game's all about. You know, guys are going to get out, you know, guys are going to go for five, you know, stuff like that happens. But if you can, you know, keep relying on each other, you know, that's what got us in this position, you know, with the, you know, the record we have is just guys continue to rely on each other, even when, you know, having a good day, you just, you know, turn to somebody else, try to pick somebody else up and, you know, try to win a ball game. You guys won so many games like this this year. What's been different about this week? About this week. It's baseball, you know, like you said, we won a lot of games like that. I think we'll leave the major leagues and come back wins and walk off wins and stuff like that. You know, so that's a good ball club over there, you know, and they got us tonight. You know, we couldn't come up with that big hit and, you know, it's time to get ready for tomorrow. You know, that's all you can really do. Aaron, these calls go against you at the major league level, but is this something that's just been happening throughout your career in baseball? Is it something that you were familiar with before you got here? Yeah, it's kind of having my whole career. But I think that's why my college coach told me that you're not an umpire, you're a hitter, you know, so focus on hitting and don't, you know, be complaining about calls.
