00:00Meanwhile, Roman Anthony, two uncompetitive at-bats, and then he's out of the game.
00:04Apparently a flare-up of the injury that kept him out for, I guess, half the season, over half the
00:10season.
00:10People went back and looked at his last at-bat against the Cubs in Tampa in the season finale.
00:15Saw him shaking his hand after another check swing.
00:18So maybe it was something that was pre-existing before the game even began.
00:22But either way, Maz, he pulls himself out of the game halfway through last night. Your thoughts?
00:26So, look, this is going to be a long-off season for this kid, depending on what happens.
00:31I'll tell you what's now popping into my head with Roman Anthony.
00:35Nomar Garcia-Para.
00:37Okay, Nomar Garcia-Para never lived on the thing in New York where he wouldn't play in the game in
00:41the regular season
00:42and Derek Jeter went into the crowd.
00:44This is now another occasion where Roman Anthony can't play in the postseason.
00:49He couldn't play last year, can't play this year.
00:52The injury took a long time for him to come back.
00:54And I'm telling you whether the injury is legit or not legit, almost doesn't matter.
01:00If I'm one of the guys in that clubhouse, I'm looking at him going, could you have played?
01:05Like, I think they're all wondering.
01:07And last night, I went back and looked at again at the two at-bats.
01:11He took three swings in the game.
01:14The first one was kind of pathetic.
01:15He let go of the bat.
01:16It just looked uncomfortable.
01:18The other two were, you know, I don't want to say clunky.
01:21They looked a little closer to normal, but they didn't look as aggressive or fluid.
01:26I don't think he wanted to be out there at all.
01:28I don't think he wanted to be out there from the start.
01:30He was ready to pack it in, and it showed.
