Matt VasgersianGUEST
It's only happened twice in the 25-year history of the ballpark.
Matt VasgersianGUEST
Ironically, it happened in a post-season game in '08, and, uh, Jayson Werth hit a ball against the roof, and Craig Counsell was the one who caught it.
Matt VasgersianGUEST
Uh, you know, as he would go on to become the all-time franchise winningest manager and a Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin, native, so it was kind of apropos that he was the guy that did it.
Matt VasgersianGUEST
But you're never ready for that, and that's why th- I think there was a little confusion in the booth.

Matt VasgersianGUEST
You know, will this be ruled a home run? The ground rule is that if...
Ryan ClaryHOST
And at times, like, you kind of want to learn the art of just fouling off a pitch.
Ryan ClaryHOST
Like, I feel like that's something that Jayson Werth did so well back in the day, a Juan Soto did so well back in the day.
Ryan ClaryHOST
And it sounds silly to say, but like, battling off pitch after pitch after pitch is something that is kind of a lost art, I think, in today's game.
Ryan ClaryHOST
Because you hear all the time that like, "Oh, strikeouts don't matter." And you're right, they don't really matter as much as they did back in the day, but it still kind of adds up over time.
Ruben Amaro Jr.HOST
And we went to Papelbon and signed that big contract with him to try to close that thing down instead of...
Ruben Amaro Jr.HOST
You know, we had another guy that was, uh, Jason Werth was also a, uh, a, a free agent.
Ruben Amaro Jr.HOST
More of a impact player probably than Alec Bohm, but a similar situation where, you know, do you bring him back? Do you not bring him back? We ended up not signing him, so [smacks lips] and when-
Jim SalisburyHOST
Look forward.
Jack GallagherHOST
Ryan Zimmerman, everybody knows him.
Jack GallagherHOST
Jayson Werth Some people might know him.
Chris DeeleyHOST
[laughs]
Jack GallagherHOST
Um, Anthony Rendon, everybody knows him, laughs at him, but he was actually good at this point.
45 MINS LATER
Jack GallagherHOST
It does not score Bryce Harper.
Jack GallagherHOST
He gets over to third base just.
Jack GallagherHOST
Um, and then Jayson Werth comes up, and he flies out, and that's the end of the inning.
Jack GallagherHOST
So Didi, it is now 3-2 to the Nationals, and how many bunts were in this bloody game?
Ben SimorkaHOST
I, I agree with, like, to, to w- what your, your, uh, hypothes- I, I think I agree the Cardinals probably won't make a big splash.
Ben SimorkaHOST
But I do, like I could see them making the Jon Lester type move, or the Jayson Werth type move, or whatever you wanna call it.
Ben SimorkaHOST
Like, where you bring in an established veteran a year earlier than you think you might be-
Nate HeiningerHOST
Yeah
JoeAUDIENCE
If that doesn't happen, then I don't think Sanchez is able to pitch as much long as he did because the pitch count would've been even been higher.
JoeAUDIENCE
And then for him to pull Jayson Werth in the, in the 10th inning, and if he doesn't hit that home run, who pitches the 11th? That's, that was so crucial to get that one.
Joe DeCamaraHOST
Well, I think, I think Painter would've, Joe.
Joe DeCamaraHOST
See, here's the thing they had with Painter that is awesome.

Dan Le BatardHOST
Nobody's getting home from third.
Chris CotePRODUCER
Greg, how shocked were you to learn that that wasn't Jayson Werth?
Dan Le BatardHOST
[laughs] What did you learn during the baseball game you decided to watch yesterday?
Chris CotePRODUCER
What'd you learn?
Chris CotePRODUCER
Christ, Greg.
Greg CotePANELIST
I did not know that.
Greg CotePANELIST
And I also don't know who Jayson Werth is either.
Dan Le BatardHOST
Well, clearly from the way that he looked at you, he [laughs] he didn't know that.
