No problem. What's going on? Not too much. You pitched against a lot of great hitters in your career.

Have you ever seen anybody doing for an extended period of time what judge is doing right now?

No, I mean I guess the only other person would be Barry right?

But I mean, no, I mean, not on a scale where the baseball team and I'm watching my favorite team every day feels like it's a guy going deep or impactful, you know, double or something, you know, where he's impacting the game every single day.

So, no, I mean, for a team that I've watched, you know, and been a fan of, no, I don't think there's ever been a player that you know I can say that

I've watched a daily that like Aaron judge right now.

C.C. how would you pitch to him? Right now you can't I mean to be honest I mean I

don't understand what teams are pitching to him I mean you

know last night the Nazis had to pitch to him with the bases loaded but outside of that

there's really nowhere you can throw the ball right now where he can't hit it out of the

ballpark and he's

controlling the plate so much that he's only swinging at pitches that he can

actually barrel and slugs so there's really nothing you can do right now, but the hope that he hit the ball like he did last night really hard at the shortstop and you know it's at somebody
