00:00Late in that game, really the second half, if you recall, the first time they played,
00:03it reminds me, there was a guy that was my year at James Madison, who I saw as a pitcher.
00:08He's pretty good, upper 80s, but he had a splitter.
00:10You don't see many of those when you're playing high school ball.
00:13And so they discovered, and he discovered pretty quickly, I couldn't hit it.
00:17I couldn't hit it.
00:18I had no answer for it.
00:19So I would see maybe one fastball, and then it was just a steady diet of splitters,
00:23and I would tap the ball into the ground, swing and miss, 0 for a million against that dude.
00:29You know what their splitter was?
00:30Blitzing in the second half.
00:32They might as well have held up a sign and said, hey, we're blitzing.
00:35We're bringing eight.
00:36Deal with it.
00:37Bring it seven.
00:37Deal with it.
00:38And they couldn't.
00:39Washington had no answers.
00:40You might see that splitter again tonight in some degree, especially because Washington
00:44cannot run the ball still.
00:46Their normal running game still stinks.
00:47I believe that.
00:48I think the Giants know that.
00:49It's going to be gross.
00:50They're going to try to force you into some of those third mediums, third and longs.
00:54And they're probably going to probe and see, can you handle this?
00:58Because that game was a resounding no.
01:00You'd like to think there's some adjustments and there's some counters here.
