1004

01:
22:35,501 -- 01:22:39,630

They're like mopeds, fun to ride,

just don't let your friends see you do it.

1005

01:
22:41,424 -- 01:22:45,261

That's it. Hey, you know what?

I've got something to say.

1006

01:
22:45,763 -- 01:22:46,972

Listen up.

1007

01:
22:47,723 -- 01:22:48,932

Excuse me.

1008

01:
22:49,016 -- 01:22:51,685

Can I have everybody's attention

for one minute?

1009

01:
22:51,768 -- 01:22:53,561

There's something

I need to say to everybody.

1010

01:
22:55,396 -- 01:23:00,693

My name is Miles Dalrymple

and I'm tired of living a lie.

1011

01:
23:02,695 -- 01:23:07,283

I need it to be known

that I like a big girl.

1012

01:
23:08,828 -- 01:23:15,043

In fact, a large, zaftig,

voluptuous, full-figured, big-boned...

1013

01:
23:15,710 -- 01:23:17,212

massive-assive honey.

1014

01:
23:18,963 -- 01:23:21,049

That is what really gets me going!

1015

01:
23:21,715 -- 01:23:26,136

I like fat women and they like me!

Anybody got a problem with that?

1016

01:
23:32,644 -- 01:23:35,188

Big girls need love too, baby!

1017

01:
23:38,859 -- 01:23:40,861

- Hi.

- Hey.

1018

01:
23:42,904 -- 01:23:44,572

Just like old times.

1019

01:
23:44,573 -- 01:23:47,201

Yeah. I didn't see you in there.

1020

01:
23:48,285 -- 01:23:50,621

I was home, packing.

1021

01:
23:54,165 -- 01:23:56,251

I'm going to San Francisco tomorrow.

1022

01:
24:10,683 -- 01:24:13,519

- Do you want to sit down?

- Yeah.

1023

01:
24:22,194 -- 01:24:24,071

I'm pitching tomorrow.

1024

01:
24:28,243 -- 01:24:32,581

I had a huge fight with my father.

I can't stay here with him.

1025

01:
24:34,708 -- 01:24:35,959

About what?

1026

01:
24:41,923 -- 01:24:43,175

You.

1027

01:
24:53,477 -- 01:24:54,686

When are you leaving?

1028

01:
24:56,606 -- 01:24:58,608

Tomorrow night.

1029

01:
25:05,407 -- 01:25:07,409

- Just as well...

- We're better off...

1030

01:
25:14,541 -- 01:25:17,961

Let yourself be great

tomorrow night.

1031

01:
25:28,304 -- 01:25:30,223

I'm really going to miss you.

1032

01:
25:59,045 -- 01:26:02,924

Ahoy, mateys.

I am the true spirit of Chatham...

1033

01:
26:02,882 -- 01:26:05,677

a drunken fisherman

named Barnacle Barb.

1034

01:
26:06,261 -- 01:26:07,929

I like to drink.

1035

01:
26:09,180 -- 01:26:11,016

I like to fight.

1036

01:
26:12,393 -- 01:26:16,022

I like to fall down in pools

of my own vomit!

1037

01:
26:19,107 -- 01:26:22,444

Tonight, the Chatham A's

take on the Falmouth Commodores.

1038

01:
26:22,611 -- 01:26:24,613

And a last-minute pitching change...

1039

01:
26:24,613 -- 01:26:26,615

the A's will send

Ryan Dunne to the mound.

1040

01:
26:27,241 -- 01:26:28,117

Ryan!

1041

01:
26:33,415 -- 01:26:34,666

Get them, tiger!

1042

01:
26:34,750 -- 01:26:37,169

I'm proud as hell

you've done what you've done.

1043

01:
26:37,835 -- 01:26:39,837

Dunne replaces Eric Van Leemer...

1044

01:
26:39,963 -- 01:26:42,966

who proved to be even more

of a flamethrower than we imagined.

1045

01:
26:43,717 -- 01:26:46,386

It's a good opportunity for the

young lefty,...

1046

01:
26:46,552 -- 01:26:48,888

after being banished to the bullpen

by coach Schiffner.

1047

01:
26:50,097 -- 01:26:52,767

That's good stuff out there.

You stay focused now.

1048

01:
27:02,152 -- 01:27:04,196

Swing and a miss. Strike three.

1049

01:
27:04,197 -- 01:27:05,448

Number one, Ry dog!

1050

01:
27:06,948 -- 01:27:10,661

Then one day you have this moment

where it all just arrives. Everything clicks.

1051

01:
27:13,706 -- 01:27:14,999

He struck him out.

1052

01:
27:14,998 -- 01:27:15,791

2.6.

1053

01:
27:20,213 -- 01:27:21,881

Got him on a good breaking ball.

1054

01:
27:25,634 -- 01:27:28,804

I'm just trying to figure out

what inning you'll self-destruct.

1055

01:
27:28,888 -- 01:27:34,769

The question with Dunne has always been,

can he keep it together for a whole ball game?

1056

01:
27:36,396 -- 01:27:38,564

That's four K's for Dunne.

1057

01:
27:44,696 -- 01:27:46,364

You are dangerous, Ryan.

1058

01:
27:46,280 -- 01:27:48,700

You are. You're as good

as any of those guys out there.

1059

01:
27:51,328 -- 01:27:53,455

One big mistake.

1060

01:
27:58,627 -- 01:28:02,673

Swing and a miss. He got him.

That's five strikeouts for Dunne.

1061

01:
28:02,715 -- 01:28:06,468

In the middle of the third,

Falmouth is still looking for its first hit.

1062

01:
28:09,097 -- 01:28:10,807

I want to stop by the stadium.

1063

01:
28:10,890 -- 01:28:14,310

- We really don't have time, Tenley.

- Just for a minute, okay?

1064

01:
28:17,187 -- 01:28:21,525

Goose eggs on the board through seven,

but the real story is Ryan Dunne.

1065

01:
28:22,027 -- 01:28:26,281

You might want to stay awake for this.

Ryan has got a no-no going.

1066

01:
28:28,325 -- 01:28:30,410

Two outs here in the top of

the eighth.

1067

01:
28:33,204 -- 01:28:36,082

There's a little looper in the short right

field, looks like...

1068

01:
28:36,125 -- 01:28:39,503

No! Domo makes a circus catch.

What a grab!

1069

01:
28:42,672 -- 01:28:45,842

All right! Way to go, Domo!

1070

01:
28:46,009 -- 01:28:49,220

The A's second baseman

made a spectacular catch.

1071

01:
28:49,680 -- 01:28:51,974

And the Commodores

go down in the eighth.

1072

01:
28:54,060 -- 01:28:57,647

Wouldn't you know it, the guy who

makes the great play in the field...

1073

01:
28:57,688 -- 01:29:02,026

now comes in to lead off for his team

at bat in the last of the eighth inning.

1074

01:
29:01,192 -- 01:29:04,487

Get on now. Make them

pitch to you.

1075

01:
29:04,445 -- 01:29:07,031

Mickey "Domo" Dominguez

stands in against Huber.

1076

01:
29:10,786 -- 01:29:12,954

There's a liner in the right.

Base hit!

1077

01:
29:14,121 -- 01:29:16,540

The A's have the lead-off runner

on in the eighth.

1078

01:
29:17,501 -- 01:29:21,004

The way these two pitchers are going,

one run may do it tonight.

1079

01:
29:25,676 -- 01:29:29,554

On deck for the A's is Billy Brubaker,

who's been hot of late.

1080

01:
29:31,014 -- 01:29:33,141

Bru's average is up to .292 now.

1081

01:
29:35,728 -- 01:29:37,772

There's a line drive into left

and it's sinking fast.

1082

01:
29:38,731 -- 01:29:41,859

McBride can't get it.

It's rolling all the way to the fence.

1083

01:
29:42,359 -- 01:29:45,487

Domo is going to score easily.

Brubaker is heading to third.

1084

01:
29:47,407 -- 01:29:48,616

He's being waved around.

1085

01:
29:48,616 -- 01:29:49,784

Come on, Bru!

1086

01:
29:55,540 -- 01:29:56,666

He's safe!

1087

01:
29:57,417 -- 01:30:02,255

Inside-the-park homer for Billy Brubaker. And

the A's take a two-run lead here in the eighth.

1088

01:
30:09,971 -- 01:30:11,347

Come on now, get up!

1089

01:
30:13,725 -- 01:30:17,020

Ryan Dunne will take the mound in the ninth

with a two-run cushion...

1090

01:
30:17,187 -- 01:30:20,190

and three outs to go

to complete his masterpiece.

1091

01:
30:19,981 -- 01:30:21,482

Be right back.
