00:00I mean, if I'm being honest, the IL is something that's very boring and lonely, and I spent a lot
00:05of time on it the last two years, and it was last year when I realized that, you know, I
00:09have always seen baseball as a hobby, and the reality is that baseball is my job.
00:14What's it like to go back and remember what you guys accomplished last year?
00:17Yeah, I mean, that's always something fun, you know, sitting back and appreciating what you did as a group, something
00:23that in this sport, we don't really get to do that often, because, you know, it's always, all right, cool,
00:28we did this, but now, like, moving forward, and we look on to the next one.
00:32I love playing baseball and everything, but, you know, the day is my profession, and I didn't really have any
00:37hobbies outside of baseball, so I've always answered that question as my hobby is walking the dogs in the afternoon,
00:44and that is not really a hobby.
00:46So, you know, I started ripping packs, and started ripping with sports first, and then eventually I went back to
00:51Pokemon, which I collected as a kid, and as soon as I opened the first pack, it brought back so
00:56many memories, and so many, you know, it made me feel like a kid.
00:59It was something that, like, brought a lot of joy to me in a moment where I probably needed it,
01:03you know, I wasn't feeling the best mentally, because I was hurt, and my daughter watched, she fell in love
01:10with Pikachu, just like me, and started ripping with me, and now we rip Pokemon, we rip Disney,
01:15we rip My Little Pony, we rip a little bit of everything, so.
01:19What's your best Pokemon pull so far?
01:21Sabrina's Gengar, Japanese Sabrina's Gengar, pulled it and got graded a 10, so that is definitely my, yeah, my, yeah,
01:28for sure.
01:28What card are you still chasing?
01:30Korokoro Mew is a card that I love the art of it. I didn't pull the trigger last year when
01:35I wanted it, and now it's gotten a little too expensive, so it's a card that I'll probably be chasing
01:40forever.
01:41I think it's pretty cool, because not only do I get my fix, but it also helps us connect as
01:46a family, and it's something that, you know, we look forward to.
01:49What's your best?
01:49What's your best?
