:08:00
Came up for opening day,
you know, and then back tomorrow.
:08:03
- Is Merlyn here?
- No, she's in Dallas with the boys.
:08:06
She don't like it here.
:08:07
- Who doesn't like it here?
- Your wife.
:08:09
She likes it down there, you know?
:08:10
So, Mick, what do you say?
:08:12
Is there a rivalry
between you and the MVP?
:08:16
- Who'd you vote for, anyway?
- I can't tell you that.
:08:18
- See, the little prick voted for you.
- How about the home run record?
:08:22
- You think you got a shot?
- Are you crazy?
:08:24
With expansion this year,
the pitching's gonna be thinner.
:08:27
The best year I had, I only hit 52.
:08:29
This year you got eight extra games
in the schedule.
:08:31
Come on, it can't be done.
:08:33
Even if you get close,
you won't get nothing to hit.
:08:35
If you stay healthy, you can do it.
:08:37
That's great. One guy's got me washed up,
the other's got me beatin' Ruth's record.
:08:41
You guys oughta get together and decide,
tell me how I am so I know how to play.
:08:46
What do you say, Rog?
:08:47
I don't know,
we haven't even played a game yet.
:08:50
Maybe we'll wait and see
after we play one.
:09:01
Look at that.
You got the perfect swing for this ballpark.
:09:04
I don't know.
If anybody's gonna do it, it'll be Mickey.
:09:07
He hits from both sides of the plate.
:09:10
You don't think you got a shot?
:09:13
You got a short porch out there.
:09:16
I don't know...
:09:18
I don't think about that, Im sorry.
:09:21
I don't know what you want me to say.
:09:23
- I don't think about that sort of stuff.
- Come on.
:09:27
I gotta get ready for the game.
Ill talk to you later.
:09:32
All right, Ill catch you later.
:09:38
I should've talked to you first but I met
with some of the writers this morning.
:09:43
I told them Im expecting you
to be our leader.
:09:45
Shit. I don't know.
What about Whitey or Yogi?
:09:48
They've been here longer than me.
:09:50
You're the heart and soul of this team.
:09:52
I know Casey could be rough on you,
but whatever happened with him is over.
:09:56
Im the manager now
and this is what I expect.
