What began as a pitchers' duel
turned into a rout...
:58:07
...as the A's fall to the Hyannis Mets,
8-nothing.
:58:12
There he is. Can you sign this?
:58:19
Thank you.
:58:23
Thank you.
:58:25
Ryan, this is Hugh Alexander.
He's the scout for the Phillies.
:58:29
That's good stuff out there.
You stay focused now.
:58:33
Thank you.
:58:36
They need to see you pitch again,
they're interested in you. He told me.
:58:43
I'm in the bullpen from here out...
:58:46
...next to Calvin Knight
who's the best closer in the League.
:58:51
That ump, he had it in for you.
:58:53
You deserve better.
:59:00
Thanks, Dad.
:59:12
So I don't think I'll even show up
for the last couple of games.
:59:19
What?
:59:23
Every scout was all over that Hyannis kid
who hit the slam off me.
:59:28
Yeah, he'll be getting
a wicked big check come spring.
:59:31
Yeah, I'm going to get a check, too.
:59:34
About $70 for cutting grass
at Chatham Elementary.
:59:37
Come on, Ry.
I think you're a really good pitcher.
:59:42
What you think don't mean shit.
:59:46
What?
:59:48
All that matters is making it,
getting signed and cashing a check.
:59:52
Right now I'm lucky...
:59:54
...if some scrub team in Podunk
lets me pitch batting practice next season.
:59:59
-You're wrong.
-Bullshit! That's all that matters.
