Sam DykstraHOST
Um, so they were named as part of the business summit in Louisville.
Sam DykstraHOST
Uh, best promotion or event went to the Albuquerque Isotopes for Native American Heritage Night.
Sam DykstraHOST
Um, good job by the Isotopes.
Sam DykstraHOST
Uh, the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center was the marquee sponsor of the game, which ha- and that included an exclusive hat giveaway and post-game fireworks set to a playlist of Native American music.
KellyHOST
I'm a huge fan of The Simpsons.
KellyHOST
So the Albuquerque isotopes got their name from an episode of The Simpsons.
Patrick LarsonHOST
Southwest flavors.
KellyHOST
So they totally embrace it and have statues that you can pose with of the Simpsons in the ballpark.
Jeff SiembiedaHOST
Could be more.
Jeff SiembiedaHOST
And a big honor for the Albuquerque Isotopes.
Jeff SiembiedaHOST
It's the opening drive.
Jeff SiembiedaHOST
He's J.J. Buck.
Mel Kiper Jr.HOST
I'm a big Dodger guy.
Mel Kiper Jr.HOST
Loved Albuquerque, right? Was applying to Dodge.
Mel Kiper Jr.HOST
All those players coming out of the AAA, right? So you go from A-ball, right? Call A-ball Eastern Illinois, right? That's where Eastern Illinois is where he starts A-ball.
Mel Kiper Jr.HOST
He goes to the AA, maybe the Mid-American Conference, right, the Ball State.
Scott AyersHOST
He showed a ton of power in AAA, 27 bombs, 98 RBIs.
Scott AyersHOST
He had a 390 on base percentage and his OPS was 904, right? So the guy would absolutely rake and had some unbelievable stretches for the Albuquerque Isotopes.
Scott AyersHOST
The biggest question mark Honestly, it will take Brett Pill and Jordan Pacheco to work with him, is the strikeouts.
Scott AyersHOST
I think that's what held him back from being called up this last season, is he struck out 150 times.
Bob ClarkHOST
Well, kind of give us as well, before we let you go, sort of what the fans can expect in terms of roster movement during the course of the season and how that works.
Bob ClarkHOST
Because as you know, we have a AAA baseball team here, the Albuquerque Isotopes affiliated with the Colorado Rockies.
Bob ClarkHOST
And when the Rockies have an injury or if there's an Isotopes player down here who's playing very well, they call them up during the course of the season.
Bob ClarkHOST
And sometimes there can be several call-ups.
Jason RabinowitzHOST
It's kinda their whole thing.
Jason RabinowitzHOST
Other than having a once fictional minor league baseball team called the Isotopes that then became an actual minor league baseball team called the Isotopes, hot air balloons is the thing in Albuquerque.
Jason RabinowitzHOST
They have huge festivals with dozens and dozens, maybe hundreds, I don't know, I've never actually been there, of hot air balloon launches, and I think sunrise flights, really pretty stuff in Albuquerque.
Jason RabinowitzHOST
But apparently one of these balloons experienced some sort of issue with the winds.
Bob ClarkHOST
Dale Cornelius, Old Town of the Newsroom, Candy Cruise Traffic, 96.3 Newsradio, KKOV.
Bob ClarkHOST
During this week of the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, the Albuquerque Isotopes offering free tours, and it's very simple to be a part of it.
Bob ClarkHOST
Just show up at the stadium right before noon, and you'll be all set to go.
Bob ClarkHOST
And leading those tours once again is the play-by-play voice of the Albuquerque Isotopes, Josh Shushon, who is with us here on 96.3 Newsradio, KKOV.
Bob ClarkHOST
Josh, thanks for your time this morning.
Bob ClarkHOST
How are you doing today? Good.
Bob ClarkHOST
Josh Huchon.
Bob ClarkHOST
Of course, Josh, when you talk about the history of AAA baseball here in Albuquerque, the Los Angeles Dodgers are a big part of that.
ChristinaHOST
Um, hot honey pepperoni with green chili pizza.
Patrick LarsonHOST
Yeah, that was at the Isotopes, right?
ChristinaHOST
It was.
Patrick LarsonHOST
And then I know you did the Christmas mix where you get both the red and green chili.
Patrick LarsonHOST
But yeah, so in El Paso we saw two games, and so I gotta talk about the second game.
ChristinaHOST
Mm-hmm.
Patrick LarsonHOST
Is El Paso Chihuahuas versus the Albuquerque Isotopes.
Patrick LarsonHOST
Uh, so the, the, the game, the final score ended up being Albuquerque, and it's Pacific Coast League, so, you know, high scoring.
Brent SuterGUEST
... uh, late April because they needed to make some moves and I was looking at my wife going, "Oh, uh, this might be it." You know what I mean? This is a, this is what happens when they don't have room for you and they like you just enough to not let you go.
Brent SuterGUEST
Um, but fortunately the next week I was able to get off that and ended up pitching really well the next two months, and was about to start against the Albuquerque Isotopes at home and got a call.
Brent SuterGUEST
Missed actually probably 65 calls from my manager, 'cause I put my phone under my laptop.
Brent SuterGUEST
[laughs] And then I, I wake up like, "Oh my gosh." And then, uh, Tim Dillard, I don't know if you guys know Tim Dillard.
