26 home runs led the team, and they're not a home run hitting team really, but where did he come from? And then when did Bryce Terang get a bat? I mean, the last couple of seasons.
6:24
That's been discussed.

When he was playing with Team USA in the World Baseball Classic, a lot of guys looked to him in batting practice saying, Why is it the smallest, thinnest guy in this team is putting balls into the loge level of the bleachers wherever they're playing? To the point that he caught Aaron Judge's attention, okay? So if you're doing that, power to you.

I think it just all clicked.
6:43
And it goes back to that belief, does it not? I think if you, no matter what your job is, if you have people above you that are counting on you to deliver, but also backing you when things don't necessarily go your way.

8:13
All of this changed in February 2025 when they upgraded and changed the city's computer aided dispatcher CAD system.
8:21
It's technology that allows them to track all of their calls, get locations, other information in there and pass it on.
8:28
What had happened before is police and fire dispatchers were taking calls.
8:30
A lot of times they'd have to transfer it to the other side and you're slowing things down.
