Not only is it the middle show of the work week, and we've already peaked, we're past the midway point, heading down the other side toward not just the weekend, but the first weekend of the men's and women's NCAA basketball tournaments, which means wall to wall basketball. However, you're going to need to make some time for baseball, because we are just an hour away from the start of the 2024 MLB season. First ever regular season games in Seoul, South Korea. And if you missed it an hour ago, Jesse Agler, who is the play-by-play voice of the Padres radio network, joined us from the field at the Gochuk Skydome. I asked him how to pronounce it, so I wouldn't get it wrong.

The Gochuk Skydome seats 17,000 people. That's it. Wow. But it is a buzz.

Electric. Loud, he said. And he listed a long group of baseball and pop culture celebrities who were there for the occasion. Not to mention the fans who are flocking to see Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Yoshinobu Yamamoto. It's a fun name to say, but boy, can you get messed up. It's a little bit like Tua Tengo Voloa. You just have to say it. Don't think about it.

Just take the plunge. Yama. They call him Yama. Along with Yu Darvish, who's starting for the Padres, and then Ha Seung Kim, who's a Seoul, South Korea native and has gotten an incredible reception being home in the stadium where he used to play his pro ball. I like this gesture by Major League Baseball. I think it's really neat when you've got teams that go to Mexico, right, and you've got players who are Hispanic and it matters so much to them to be able to play in a country where their language is prime or it's number one. And so I asked Jesse what language did they use to introduce the players.

Now he said he didn't know. He would find out when the game started. So Jay and I are thinking maybe they do both Korean as well as English. I'm sure there will be some fans in the stadium who know English, but probably not the majority of them would know it well.

And also, the other thing is, does it matter? Because they can see who's up to bat, right? They can see who's at the plate.

They're there for the experience, of course, and obviously for these handful of players that are Asian, that are, well, in the case of Shohei Ohitani, are global sensations. I don't think they necessarily need to have the introductions, but to add to it, right, to make it more official as a Major League Baseball game. I'm looking forward to this. I can't wait to get in the car.

It starts an hour from now, so Jay and I will have live baseball to listen to on our commutes home. How about when someone batters at the plate, they'll show a picture of them on the outfield jumbotron or whatever with their name. But do you think they'll have their name in Korean or in English?

Because if I don't know who I'm looking at... Huh. Can you put a proper name into Korean? So for instance, Amy Lawrence, would it translate to something in Korean?

Or would it just be Amy Lawrence? Well, it's different like characters. Oh, you mean spelling it out? Spelling it out, right.

Huh. Well, yeah, you could spell it out on the screen, but I thought you meant like announcing it. No, like spelling it out on the screen. So if they didn't say his name in English, which I think they will, I think they'll do both. But would I, and I don't know his face, say just, you know, I'll tell my head.

Wait, but hold on though. How else could you say the names though? I mean, if there are names that are proper English names, how could you say them in Korean?

I'm talking about written on the jumbotron. Right, so you said, I think they'll say the names in English, but they kind of have to. Yeah, I do think they will say that. Oh, well, you mean the whole intro is in English. Right.

Okay. Say if it was all in Korean. That'd be, because you said there'd be a chance if you're looking at someone, you wouldn't know who they were if it was never said in English.

Hmm. Wait, never said in English or never said in Korean? In English. If you were an English speaker at the stadium.

Oh, and you didn't know there's, hmm. You think? I think I feel like if you're an English speaker, then you probably can read the names on the back of the jerseys or. Yeah, that's a good point.

The names on the back of the jerseys. All right. Well, this will be interesting. At least we know the food's really good. According to Jesse, he hasn't stopped eating.

He's going to go on a salad fast when he gets home. So we're really excited about that. We love international sporting events here at After Hours because they coincide with the time that we're awake and working. And it was really cool to have Jesse join us live from the Go Chuck Skydome in advance of his call of Padres and Dodgers, which officially opens the Major League Baseball season earlier, of course.

Maybe you weren't expecting it on March 20th, but well, it's 12 hours from now, right? So there in Seoul, it's now 5 p.m. And we talked about travel. We talked about the atmosphere around the city and in the stadium and what it's like. So if you missed that conversation with Jesse and you want a primer, you can grab it on our podcast. It's After Hours with Amy Lawrence on CBS Sports Radio, on Twitter. Oh, my gosh, there's so much.

On Twitter, ALawRadio. Want to know from you, would you rather lose sleep over March Madness? Because if you're committed to March Madness and the tournament that's about to take over domination, it's total world domination for March Madness on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and then Monday, too, for the women. You really do have to lose sleep. There's no way that you can watch at all if you aren't cutting out, well, probably work as well, work and sleep.

And I've heard from some of you who have taken the time off. Or would you rather lose sleep over the start of the baseball season? And we're talking about two teams that are on the West Coast, right? Or they're housed on the West Coast.

And so it's 3 a.m. San Diego and L.A. time when this game begins. Our friend Michael Duarte, who's a frequent guest. I don't even call him a guest anymore. He's just family from NBC L.A. He's actually in Los Angeles. He did not make the trip, but he's said, I'm keeping your hours, which is appropriate, I think. So here we are telling you that live baseball comes up in an hour, but also knowing that college basketball is going to start at noon on Thursday and Friday and play for about 12 hours straight.

So which one is worth losing sleep over? We've got a poll up, again, on Twitter, mine or After Hours CBS, and then our Facebook page as well. Those of you who sent questions for Ask Amy Anything, I will go back on Wednesday and answer as many of those as I can get to without writing you a short novel. Our phone number is 855-212-4227. It's 855-212-4CBS. I'm sure Producer J is more than willing to answer your questions about how to fill out a bracket. Just call him.

Ask him. He's got all kinds of tips. I actually do have some tips that I could pass along. I don't know how many of them we'll get to on this show, but we'll sprinkle them out between now and then tomorrow night as well. Your brackets are not due for the men's tournament until Thursday before the game's tip, and then on Friday before the women's tip. We do have a brand new women's bracket. We've never done that before, but because you're all about it, because we're really excited to see some of these superstars, new superstars, right? Not just Kaitlyn Clark, but South Carolina and Camila Cardoso, and what we've seen out of LSU and freshman Juju Watkins, not to mention some of the old faithful like UConn on the women's side and the men's side, right? It's going to be a lot of fun to see LSU, the defending champions, back on the court too.

So the women's bracket is available as well as the men's. I haven't done either one. I'll just fess up. It's going to, yeah, I still have, I suppose by this time tomorrow, I'll be getting closer.

Jay, have you done yours yet? No, absolutely not. Okay. So we're waiting until the last possible second. Do as we say, not as we do. I really need to see who won these first four games.

That was my thing. First four in, I mean. They give you these first four games. You don't have to pick them. It was a joke. Oh, gotcha. Okay.

Just want to be sure that you weren't misleading the peeps. Speaking of the first four, well, we had one game that went down to the wire. We had another that maybe played right into the narrative that the ACC put the wrong teams in or that the Virginia Cavaliers had no business making the field. Top of the arc Cartier whistles one to the left corner for Clifford. He bangs in on Murray, spins to the baseline, fall away jumper rattles in plus the foul. Nick Clifford is falling tonight.

Colorado State leads by 20 with 17 minutes to go. Beekman goes into the corner. Catch and shoot three for Groves. Way short an air ball. Virginia has had good shooters air ball multiple threes tonight.

That's about right. Clifford left corner for Colorado State. Drives baseline, drops it off to the right block for Scott.

Easy as you like for the right hand layup. A game high 15 for Joel Scott and it's a 41-21 Colorado State lead with 13 and a half to go. Virginia will inbound with.6 on the clock and that will do it.

There's the horn. A Colorado State blowout. The Rams pummel Virginia 67-42 at the first four. They hold Virginia to 25% shooting and Cruz on to face Texas in the round of 64.

Let's go! I just, I don't know, it's hard to be prouder of a group of guys, man. The way that you guys have battled to fight just to get here in this moment. The way you've handled the last 48 hours has just been incredible. But that's what you've done. That's what you've done all year. That's what some of you guys have done here at Tucker.

That's what your character is. Absolutely unbelievable here tonight. But here's the deal, man. Our goal wasn't just to get here all year. Our goal was to do what? Win when we get here.

You know what? We're getting on a plane tonight to Charlotte. Survive in advance. We'll wake up tomorrow. We've got the Texas Longhorns on Thursday night. Team together on three. Great job, man. Team together.

One, two, three. Led by the head coach Nico Medved and his locker room. They are hyped up after this victory. Colorado State, part of the Mountain West in which teams were valued lower than what a lot of experts, insiders, bracketologists predicted.

They thought the Mountain West would get the most teams ever but also have higher seeds. Uh oh, I have to sneeze. I don't know what it is about seeds. Well, pumpkin seeds. Say pineapple.

Pineapple? Does that make me sneeze? It's supposed to make it go away. Well, I kind of want to sneeze. Don't you feel that sensation and want to sneeze it out? Yeah, normally. But not in the middle of a radio show? Yeah. Whatever, I don't care.

We're all family here. Go for it. Well, I can't now because I said pineapple.

Did it work? And what if I look at the light and say pineapple? Oh my gosh, I don't think your body would know what to do. It's a little bit like if you try to sneeze with your eyes open and your eyeballs come flying out of your head. Exactly like that. Don't do that. I've tried. Please don't do that during the show because that would be disgusting.

I might not be able to keep talking if I'm, this is me. Okay, let's simulate this. Do you have some kind of a thumping noise? So on YouTube, find the noise that a bird makes when it flies into a window because you know how they make a really distinct sound. I always feel bad when birds mistake a window for an open flying lane until they fly right into it.

I'm sure there's that sound effect somewhere on YouTube. So could you imagine, I'm minding my own business, I'm talking, maybe I'm looking at my computer screen, I'm making a really intelligent and smart opinion about a particular sporting event. Not looking at producer day at all and because we're separated by the double pane glass, I cannot hear that he sneezes. Also, I can't really see him because I'm not looking at him and all of a sudden there's this thumping noise as he sneezes with his eyes open and the eyeball comes flying out and smacks into the glass between us.

So your concern wouldn't be for me. You have two. Don't they both come out? Or I just like winked maybe. There's no way both your eyeballs.

How did we get the break? I never thought, you still have one eye. I never thought about that. Both eyeballs? Both eyeballs.

That's how we know it's a myth. Because if your eyes are open, I guess you could theoretically be closing one eye but that would be hard to do in the midst of a violent sneeze. You could throw your back out and lose both your eyeballs and actually if you go back to that sound effect, didn't we hear two thumping noises?

Don't talk during it. One more time. Yep, both eyeballs. They both popped out. No, they went flying across the room. I would say the double pane glass is probably seven feet from where you are and so on your side of the glass both your eyeballs just hit the glass.

Projectile. I'm not sure that I could continue speaking. What would I do? I'd have to inform the audience of something. I'd have to call 911. Wouldn't we call 911 if someone lost our eyeballs?

You'd have to alert the audience first just to make sure everyone knows we're on the same page here. What am I supposed to say? Jay just lost his eyeballs? He sneezed and didn't close his eyes in time.

I'm supposed to get play-by-play of this violent medical situation where you're probably in unbelievable distress. You can't see anything. You could still hear.

You heard your eyeballs hit the window. You think I could still hear in that situation? Or would my senses just be totally... Jay, you lost your eyes, not your ears. Right, but would everything just be out of whack at that point? No, you would be hearing it which would be even scarier because you'd be hearing things but you couldn't see anything.

What would the smell be like just thinking of the senses? I wouldn't come in there for that reason. I'd be afraid to step on the eyeballs. Step on my eyeballs? They need to be retrieved by a medical professional with gloves. At least gloves. Although I kind of feel like we have leftover COVID gloves in the office somewhere. We're not using those to pick up my eyes.

They're blue, right? We need something sterile. They are sterile. Well, they've been there for four years. Actually, they didn't bring us any gloves for a whole year.

They finally put hand sanitizer up a year after the pandemic. Anyway, so I'd have to run out. First of all, I'd have to tell people that we had a medical emergency. And then I'd have to, I guess, come in there and put the show on break. So send the automatic tone so everyone went to break.

Otherwise, we'd just have open mics. Dead air. The alarms would be going off. Could you imagine?

You've lost your eyeballs. You're completely disoriented and freaked out and then alarms start going off. I'd have to come in there. You better teach me how to do this just in case.

Like what button to press to send us to break. I'd have to put all the mics on though and just having like the chaos of the play-by-play of what's going on. That's unfair to you. I feel like that's violating your medical privacy or your right to privacy. I'll allow it.

As the Brits say it across the pond, your privacy. I will allow it. You'll allow an open mic while you're screaming that my eyeballs are across the room? Yeah, at least then it would be documented and it wouldn't be all just for nothing. There's something wrong with you.

Why? There'd be a story to tell and like make a movie out of it or something. About how your eyeballs flew out of your...

It's not he said, she said. No one's not going to believe me when I tell the story. Not to mention I'd be calling 911.

Oh my gosh, we're on the 10th floor. This would be tough. It would be tough. How quickly. See, I'd have to go get the gloves and pick up the eyeballs and preserve them in say a plastic bag.

You know what? Every night, that way they don't get contaminated. Maybe like some dry ice or something. Yeah, because we have that here in the building.

We barely have regular ice. But here's the thing, Jay. Every single night, I bring a baggie full of...uh oh. A baggie full of goldfish.

So I'll just quickly empty out the goldfish. I have these residue on my eyes moving forward. They can spritz them off. Get your eyeballs, carefully place them.

But I'm going to have to run out and find those blue COVID gloves. Carefully place them into the baggie. Seal up the baggie. I'll leave the baggie like full of air so nothing happens to your eyeballs. Your eyes still get oxygen.

Does the air still need oxygen? Oh, I have solution in my bag. Okay, so I can frequently open the bag and put lens rewetting drops on you. What do we put on my eyes? Like sunglasses? Can you just close them?

I don't know. Well, you lost your eyeballs, not your eyelids. That's freaking me out. I'm closing your eyelids.

Don't you worry. I'll call 911 immediately and then I will retrieve your eyeballs. Maybe let them. You just want them to sit on the floor?

Do you know how long it's been since they vacuumed that floor? Oh, I do. Oh my gosh.

You'd rather have goldfish residue on them. Okay, all of that and then I no longer have to sneeze. Oh, so you worked. We're good. Pineapple.

I guess I should have just said that and not anything else. You'd have to lead me though, out of the building. You would not let anyone touch you. You'd be freaked out. You'd be in an ambulance. But how would I get there?

You'd have to lead me. They would be coming up to get you on a stretcher, I'm sure. Like a gurney? As long as it's not, maybe a stretcher or a gurney, as long as it's not a casket, right? As long as they don't cover you with a sheet.

Andrew says, am I having déjà vu or have you all had this exact conversation about Jay sneezing and popping eyeballs out before? Well, we have, Andrew, but we never carried it far enough that like, what would we do in the case of that emergency? We had to, now we have a plan.

Yeah, it's always good to have a plan. I feel like the company makes us go through all this training. Why not training for this exact situation? A medical emergency, loss of eyeballs.

I'll tell you, I just took a bunch of those training videos and this situation with the eyeballs would come up more than any of those situations. I haven't done that yet. They got really mad at me. They keep sending me nasty emails that you're no longer in compliance.

How long did it take you to do them? Oh, I think one was from 2022. So, yeah. So Lawrence says your eyeballs are attached to your head by your ocular nerves. They would be dangling. My nerves or my eyes?

Both, I guess. Your eyeballs and your nerves. So they wouldn't projectile. What if it was like a really hard sneeze? We hope, we hope that they wouldn't like actually detach from the ocular nerves. Well, we don't know.

Nope, we don't. Would it be weirder if they were just hanging or if they just totally project out? If they're hanging, I'm not coming anywhere in there. I'll retrieve your eyeballs from the floor because that floor is disgusting, but I would, you're welcome. Like I said, I'll spritz them. I'll keep them in a bag and I'll spritz them so that they don't dry out and shrivel up like raisins, but I'm not going to come in there if they're hanging from your head.

I think that's fair. In fact, I might start yelling on the air. Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Can I yell and call 911 all at the same time?

Could you imagine? Help! Help! Help! My producer!

I can't say producer, they won't know what that means. My colleagues! His eyeballs!

They're hanging out of his head! You think they've ever got that one before? Huh. I think they train for everything.

Unlike us, our training does not cover this. Scott has a visual of Jay's eyeballs hanging from his face. I mean, that'd be a great Halloween costume. Yeah, we'd have a great, well that's because you can't see.

Exactly. I feel like this is a perfect costume for Halloween. We'll put patches over your eyes so people can't tell that they're not your real eyeballs, and then we'll hang them, we'll hang some fake eyeballs.

They have those glasses that have like, you put like slinkies on them. Obviously that's fake. Well yeah, but it's, you know, for sure. No, we need something that looks like ocular nerves.

Okay. Pipe, like pipe cleaner, something like that. And then we can paint it red. Maybe it's a little more, a little more loose. A scrunchie, paint it red, like you know one of those. I'm thinking, I'm picturing like a sour punch draw, something like that, but, you know.

It's cherry. Alright, we started out talking about March Madness and baseball, and somehow, I mean I was a little concerned because I was worried about the sneeze and then it went from, this is what happens. What the hell's going on right now? I can't possibly explain it. On Twitter, after hours, CBS, take our poll.

You'd much rather be watching baseball or March Madness than listening to us. I mean, we needed a game plan. You're welcome. Now you've got one for your office as well, and a Halloween costume while you're at it. Yes, find us on Twitter and Facebook. You can participate in the After Hours Bracket Challenges because there's more than one. And at the same time, we want you to check out our brand new YouTube video that's up, a video version of Ask Amy.

Oh, sorry. Sport app says it'll be here in a few minutes.

Beer imported by Crownland Port, Chicago, Illinois. It's on CBS Sports Radio. You are listening to the After Hours Podcast. Howard back into the 2-3 zone, defending the basket to our right. Esquera goes to the left wing for Brown with 10 to shoot. Drives left baseline. Ball is loose.

Kick by Hairston, no call. It's into the backcourt. Picked up by Esquera with five. Esquera races ahead. Pulls up for a low go three. He drills it.

Oh, Esquera from way downtown. Now Esquera left side with a minute and a half to play in the first four. Wagner basketball up five. Howard pressuring almost all the way out to half court.

Council near side left. Drives baseline on Hairston. Pulls up at the block.

He got it off the window. Plus the foul. It's Melvin Council Jr.'s night. He has 21 and stares at the Howard bench. Rebound Dockery with five seconds. Hairston great on three. He was left. Kick out Dockery. Three on the way.

No, it's short. Three chances for Howard and that's the buzzer. Wagner survives the Seahawks with only seven healthy players. Hold on to beat Howard.

71-68 of the first four. Getting you to the good half of your week. It's the Hump Show on After Hours. Congratulations to the Wagner Seahawks. Small school on Staten Island, believe it or not. So just a few miles from where I sit right now in lower Manhattan.

It's one of the five boroughs of New York City. And they consider themselves to be a close knit community. I didn't even know they had a university until I read it.

Wagner University Seahawks from Staten Island. First ever NCAA tournament win. And for them it was a little dicey. They had a 17 point lead but Howard came roaring back. That lead went from 17 down to one in the span of a couple of minutes.

The calls from the tournament on the Westwood One NCAA Radio Network. Part of the reason is because Donald Copeland's Seahawks only had seven active players. Seven guys who could play.

I would imagine some places they might just come in the gym and just say listen we got seven. We just got to go through the motions. We never did that. We prepared the right way. We expected to win even when we did lose. And then now to fight in the NEC tournament the way we did. It speaks volume I think to the culture.

I think it speaks to the kids I have. It's really amazing that the team hasn't had a full contact practice. Meaning they haven't been able to play actual basketball in practice since December.

Because they don't have enough bodies. And for those of you who've maybe not ever been to a college basketball practice a lot of times they do bring in practice players. Where they'll have either coaches that fill out the other team or actually in the case of a lot of women's teams they'll bring in men's practice players. So that they can kind of simulate the physical nature of the game and get some of their young women used to more of the contact and body up against tougher players. But you can't ask your seven guys to go full contact in a practice and wear them out when they've got games all the time.

So not since December have they had a full contact practice. And so this was tough but they stayed real physical. And I love the fact that they left everything out there on the court. Melvin Council 21 points, seven assists, five rebounds. First NCAA tournament win is worth it.

Defensive rebounding because you know first half they all rebound us so we was just every huddle defensive rebound let's get a stop and let's go. Okay I know this is really important March Madness is huge but right now I'm looking at live coverage of Go Chuck Stadium. And there is a all female band and what appears to be a dance team behind them and they're performing something along the lines of what you would see at a Super Bowl halftime show.

Okay maybe not that extensive it's not that many people and the stadium is much smaller but I'm not kidding. They just cut live on ESPN to the pregame and there is what appears to be they've gone away now to talk about Korea's baseball history. But there appears to be a female pop band look look look Jay look.

I see him. A female pop band I'm not joking it looks like there's a laser show there is a oh my gosh there's a dance team of probably what would you say 40 people out there. All female and so the pop stars there's five or six of them in the middle and they are doing an all out performance. This is a big deal in Korea they're taking over the entire field right now and the laser show and the lights behind them. I have not seen them identified yet on screen but this is like Super Bowl halftime show material. I would imagine it's a popular K-pop band over there I'm not sure. Yeah super popular I've got friends who no matter where K-pop is or where they hold the K-pop conventions around the country they go to all of them. Really?

Yeah. It's huge it's growing too still as big as it's gotten. For the Dodgers and Padres 6,000 miles for them each to get to Seoul South Korea and it's been a frenzy. But it's pretty incredible to see some of the footage now Shohei Ohtani he's got a special guard around him.

Maybe they don't know who Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts are. But it's awesome too we heard from Jesse Agler who's the play-by-play voice of the Padres. He joined us live from Seoul 90 minutes ago and he was talking about how a lot of the families for these players have gone as well. Probably not on the team charters but they've gone as well to make this kind of a vacation and they've been there for a week already.

They've had a couple of exhibitions trying to get used to the time change and he said there was a lot of fatigue in the first couple days. But that it's been amazing to be there and so yeah the atmosphere it's gonna be loud if you listen to it in the next 30 it starts in 30 minutes. You listen to it you're gonna hear this incredible noise because they're in a dome the Gochuck Skydome it's only 17,000 people so it's relatively small. They're gonna try to, ahem, raise the roof. Can't wait.

Dodgers, Padres. Definitely loud noises. Jay a couple suggestions. Are you ready? For my eyes?

Yes one tweet. Is there a five second rule for eyeballs? I think there should be. There's a five second rule for candy or like when I drop goldfish on the ground I'll pick it up quickly. If I drop a Sour Patch Kid I'm absolutely picking it up. Well I mean that's a Sour Patch Kid. Right.

But how how contaminated can it get in five seconds? I think they did a thing on that. So if we if we pick up your eyeballs I'd have to rush in there I'd forget the show rush in there pick up your eyeballs let's go. That would be your first I appreciate that that right away if you saw my eyeballs pop out I have to get them. Where do you want me to save the eyeballs? First yeah. Yes okay they might be a little bit oblong they would be misshapen from hitting the window.

I hope not too bad. Actually they're not completely round spheres they are oblong. Are they? Yes they are. Anyway.

They may be round then. One more which is this is amazing this comes from Matt who's listening to us I think in Charlotte or in that area. If Jay sneezed his eyeballs out at least he wouldn't have to watch any more training videos. You know what he might be onto something.

Dang it why didn't I think of that okay we are we're asking you to be part of the after hours bracket challenge for both the men and the women.

One of the trio of players that the Dodgers committed one billion dollars to this offseason. Oh my gosh did you say it looks like Oppenheimer. Tyler Glass that looks just like Oppenheimer in the movie. Oh he does.

He's identical. The pop show continues. How about that? It's a good choreography. It is it's impressive. I saw Fernando Tatis run across them.

Run right in front of them. Yeah it's like Super Bowl halftime stuff make sure you tune it in. I'm so excited just because it's six o'clock in the morning Eastern time and there'll be baseball. Bring it.

Wow. A steal and a transition lob to Zion Williams who was flying in. L-E-U-G.

Fly, big boy. And that's what everybody in this building has been waiting for all night long. The Thorin, he has been trying to catch a lob at the third opportunity and he cashed it. And it started defensively with the Najee Marshall steal.

This is After Hours with Amy Lawrence. Najee Marshall with the steal and set up his teammate Zion Williamson for what may be the new Dunk of the Year candidate. We had one with Anthony Edwards leapfrogging over the top of John Collins and dislocating his finger on the rim.

That goes back to Monday night. Although Anthony Edwards was just fine last night. He scored 30 points against the Nuggets in helping to bring them back. This was a very tight game.

It was a real good game too, actually. If you haven't seen it, I know NBA TV has been replaying parts of it overnight. But yeah, the Wolves had to play back to backs and they were trailing the Nuggets by a significant amount but were able to push them to the brink in the late stages.

A couple of free throws for Jamal Murray that sealed it but they got Anthony Edwards back on the court. So Ant dislocates a finger on a dunk over the top of John Collins. But last night Zion Williamson on a breakaway, he is at least two feet above the rim.

When that man is healthy, which he is right now, not only are the Pelicans a contender, they're top five in the Western Conference, but he is worth the price of admission. This is the guy we saw coming out of Duke after his freshman year when the NBA lottery essentially was the Zion Williamson sweepstakes. The call is there on both the Nets radio network and then Pelicans radio. And so it's Najee Marshall and Zion was asked after the fact what he was thinking when he saw Najee pick the pocket of his opponent.

Throw it up, because it was crazy because me and him had just talked about it. He said, hey man, you need to go to the paint, you need to start dunking. So when he got the steal, I said, oh, he's throwing it. So he threw a good pass and went and got it.

It was pretty awesome. I mean, he, it was a thunderous dunk, wasn't a posterized. No one got posterized, pasteurized. No one got pulverized in the making of this video.

So yeah, no one got posterized, but posterized. Now I don't know. Now I can't figure out how to say it. It doesn't matter because right now they are introducing the Dodgers starting lineup in Seoul, South Korea. So first Mookie Betts. Now come Shohei Ohtani.

How exciting for him. Dave Roberts came first, actually. Here comes Freddie Freeman. If you didn't see it, MLB Network did a sit down, Harold Reynolds with the three MVP candidates for the Dodgers, Freeman, Ohtani and Betts. And they actually went through and had a whole debate over who would lead the team in which categories, which I thought was interesting. But also Freeman, I mean, he was psyched when they found out that Shohei was choosing the Dodgers. That week, you know, hearing about planes going to Toronto and stuff like that, I think we're all just like, you know, when he signed with us, I think, I think, I don't think I lost a smile for a few days. You know, it's just one of those things where we get to have Shohei on our team and be a part of this organization and you get to play with Shohei.

Yeah. What about those three guys in the lineup back to back to back? A couple of games this spring has been really cool. Like I let off the game with a hit, then he hit the double, then he hit a homer or hit a single. And it's like, dang. We had one game where he went single, single, single, and it was like, boom, within like five pitches. Oh, this is kind of fun.

I imagine it's kind of fun. Dang. Dang. A funny moment, too, with Harold Reynolds, again, on MLB Network, and the whole video is up on their Twitter account. But he is talking to Freeman and Shohei because Mookie Betts was late arriving, so we're waiting on him.

He's talking to Shohei, just kind of off the cuff, and is asking him about his hitting routine. Shohei, do you have a routine? Do you have a hitting routine? Nope. No. A little bit.

Just casework, tee, free, that's it. No machine, no arm. No machine, no arm. Wow. You're ridiculous.

I mean, Harold is a former big leaguer himself, so I suppose he can say that to Shohei Ohtani, but you got to hear him speak English there, which I thought was awesome. Nope. No. That's not all he said.

He said no. He said just cage and tee. Tee, free, that's it. What was the third one there? Cage, tee, and?

Free. Flip? Flip, I think, maybe. Okay. But he said no. Flip, yeah, I guess like underhand toss. Right.

Okay. But he did say no live BP, right? And well, no arm is what he said. That's pretty amazing. No machine.

No arm. See, you can hear him. That's great. But his interpreter was sitting off camera there just in case they needed him. But I thought it was cool that he spoke English. And you'll see him communicating with teammates and with others.

So he speaks English pretty well, just I think as a lot of these guys, they don't want to say the wrong thing and it's more comfortable when they're getting questions tossed at them. So yeah, really cool. It's a buzz there, even though I can't hear it, just the reaction as the players are getting introduced now in Seoul, South Korea. Manny Machado coming through what is a bit of a light show. They've got like these seven or eight foot high sparklers that are going off. Oh, and there you go.

Sehun Kim just got, I'm sorry, Ha Seung Kim just got introduced. That's really neat. That's a huge ovation. Yeah, he is. That's fun.

I can't wait to hear it. Okay. Is this Rajeev? He's in California and wants to talk to us about eyeballs.

He got like 90 seconds to talk eyeballs. Go ahead. Hey, no problem. This is Rajeev. I'm the guy that had met John Williams. I talked to you about him before, but anyway, for eyeballs, do you remember when Jeremy Renner got in that accident where he was run over by the snow cat? Oh no.

Yes, I do. That actually happened to him and they had to push his eye back in. Come on. His eyeball came out of his head? Yeah.

Yeah. He had a traumatic eyeball luxation, L-U-X-A-T-I-O-N, when it actually popped out, but yeah, your optic nerve is sort of what connects the eyeball to the rest of your thing, so that does happen. Oh no. He had a really bad accident when he was trying to save someone else.

It was crushing injury, but yeah, it actually sort of popped out, so they had to sort of pop it back in. Wow. Okay. Well, on that note, thank you for letting us know that it's possible, I think. Hey, absolutely.

Absolutely. And thank you for listening. Have a great Wednesday. Thank you.

Love listening to you guys. Thank you. Even when we're talking about eyeballs, and thankfully Jeremy Renner is not only back to health, but he's acting again, which is amazing. If I remember correctly, it was his nephew. He had some type of an injury trying to save his nephew in an accident.

Anyway, so that's crazy, but we did get a suggestion from Pam on our Facebook page. She said the optic nerve is white and so spaghetti, cooked spaghetti is how we would do this for the Halloween costume. Cooked spaghetti. Cooked spaghetti. And we would affix it somehow to the eyeball.

Need like a couple strands to make it look strong and make it look real, but I think it around to something. Oh my gosh. All right. Eyeball suggestions. Final four suggestions as well.

Not sure if you've had a chance to weigh in. We've gotten everything from candy to ice cream flavors to dog breeds to TV shows. Try to think of some of the other ones. I know pizza toppings is a really popular one, beaches, wines.

I couldn't even name four wines if I tried actually. So we'll do that during final four week, but this morning, enjoy your baseball from South Korea. We'll talk to you tonight.
