The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
I don't know enough about this Devin Williams guy. Maybe he's been dicey in the postseason. You need another lefty out there. The town of Scott is there. Even bring back that dirty-looking guy. What's his name? Tim Hill. All right, wait a minute. Wait a minute. What do you mean? Wait a minute. I don't know. Dirty looking guy. Well, you know what I mean. Grungy. He was grungy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
He reminded me of a guy in the 70s called Dirt Tidrow. Dick Tidrow. Ah, classic. It was a nickname. Don't take it like he's dirty. He didn't wash. I'm saying he reminded me of like one of those guys. You know those guys in the 70s? They were like...

Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
We got it. We got it. We understood.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Listen, you know, listen, he's got a point on some level, but, you know, Bellinger has a great swing for Yankee Stadium. I think he could easily hit 25, 30 home runs, and that band box and a fly ball is a home run. That's a joke of a place. And maybe Devin Williams comes to the Yankees. Maybe he doesn't have to be the ninth inning guy. Maybe he can be an eighth inning guy.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
So, I mean, Cashman, I'm not a huge Cashman guy. He's been, you know, done a lot of things to upset me in the past, but... He still has more work to be done. I don't think they're done. They're going to get a first baseman. They need a third baseman, too. I mean, I'm not against bringing Alex Bregman over here. He's not coming. He's a winner.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Come on, how could you not bring up Bartlett? Nick brings up what Nick wants to bring up. The Yankees had just won the World Series like a dramatic. I was at the Aaron Boone game. So the Marlins were an afterthought.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
I like Michael. Michael's a longtime Yankee fan. He lived out his dream as a Yankee announcer. He's got the best job in the world. I like Mike. I have nothing against Michael Kay. I'd love to come on and do an inning with him or something like that. My man!

The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
With him? Oh, no. I could show him the disgust and rage. Sure. There's nothing. There's no emotion. He just, you know, he left me for whatever.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
And I'm just trying to understand, is it a... David, I am not just a lunatic. I'm not just a maniac. I mean, you guys want to label me as this psychopath. No. There is a part of lunacy with me. There is a psycho side to me. But I'm telling you, there are other colors. It's like being an actor. Am I a one-note actor? Can I only do one thing? That's not that interesting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
It's interesting when I can switch gears and just... Calm down and be a little normal. I can't be always that. Even my brother tells me, Nick, don't just be a lunatic. You're more than just a lunatic. You're more than just that. You know, that's what makes you interesting.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Hey, want Soto? I got two words for you. you. That's right. you and the horse you rode in on, and the cavalry behind you. That's right, mother . Yeah, I'm taking it personal. We gave you our love. We gave you our heart and soul. It wasn't enough. You turned your cap around after the World Series. I saw that move. 700 million, 730. Yeah, it wasn't enough. It wasn't enough. Guaranteed years.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Well, you know, Michael's trying to be a little theatrical. So, you know, sometimes things are heightened a little bit. Some of these videos are heightened a little bit. But when I'm watching the game, that's different. When you see the rage during the game, during the at-bat, during the moment, That's 100% organic. This stuff, you got to understand, is a little heightened.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
It's a little exaggerated. Everything in life gets a little exaggerated. You can't think I'm going to beat the hell out of Juan Soto because I threw the bat. But am I mad? Yeah. How mad I am? It depends in the moment. But, I mean, it's, you know, it's sports. I'm a fan. You know, I'm a very hardcore fan. But, you know, not everything you take, especially social media. Come on.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
It wasn't enough. You don't even choose the Dodgers. You don't even choose the Dodgers. You go off Broadway to the Mets. You don't want to be on Broadway. And you don't want to be Judge's guy? You don't want to be Judge's partner? Oh, that's right, Judge. Now it's your team. That's it. Let's stick it up his fucking ass. That's right. Let's go out. Let's get Burns, Freed, Bregman.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
You know what I mean?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Thank you, Michael.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Let's go to Oscar. I don't give a fuck. Now we're not fucking around. Take those grungy whatever those stupid Mets.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
yeah well my son said you know can we break something i said i don't know let's throw a bat you know what i mean it was it was a prop bat you know what i mean yeah smart kid yeah he's smart he's sort of the genius behind this stuff i i've been doing this
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Well, he's the voice of the Yankees, the modern day voice of the Yankees. He's not the voice I grew up with. But for the last, you know, 20, 30 years, Michael Kay and John Sterling, you know, they represent New York. The Yankees, Yes Network. I mean, Michael's the guy. On the radio, it was John. Growing up, Michael knows it was WPIX. It was Phil Rizzuto, Frank Meza, Bill White.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
So Mike has become, you know, a family friend, an institution with Yankee baseball. He was a Yankee fan, and now he became an announcer for the Yankees. He was a sports writer, but he is... With the Yankees, he's identified. You think of the Yankees, you think of Michael K. But growing up, it was a different story, and Michael probably feels the same way.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
See you later. Goodbye. There's a button. That's all you got to do. You're going to say something good. I don't know. Maybe a good movie.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Well, baseball is very real to me. It has interrupted my life many times and almost ruined my marriage, a few things. So it's taken my emotion, you know, the day of the game when the Yankees are playing, even a regular season game, my mood is affected by whether they win or they lose. And, you know, it has a big impact in my life. I'm not getting paid for this. This is like I should be.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
I should be on a panel. I should be on a show. I should be a co-host. But I don't know. People are afraid of me in baseball. They're a little vanilla, you know, and I'm a little chocolate or whatever. Maybe I'm a little too, they think too wild or they can't control me. But you can. You can if you just tell me what you want, you know, because I can handle myself with baseball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
When it comes to this game, I know it. I don't have to research it because I live it.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Yes. And? A couple of years ago, I think I was on WFAN, and I said, I'm not as into it. I don't know. Maybe it was COVID. There was no crowd. I was kind of pissed off about that. No fans. And I was like, I'm done. I'm done. I'm not. And they were like, you're lying. You're lying. You're going to come back. You're not you. And they were right. And it just didn't happen. even without fans.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
A couple of years ago, I got so pissed off at Bob Costas, I turned him off. I muted him and watched the games in Spanish. People think I'm Puerto Rican, but I'm not. And I couldn't understand a word. And these Spanish guys, that's fantastic. I don't give a hooters. I can't take Costas no more. Oh, no. What did Bobby Q do? Dan's getting a call from Bob. Yeah, watch out.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Let me watch the game, I said. I was yelling at the TV. Let me watch the game, Bob. Please, shut up. And he wouldn't shut up. He would not shut up. It's his job to talk. If I saw Bob Costner, I would have probably, you know. So when I'm watching a game, he was like interrupting me. And I was just like, can I watch it? Can you let it breathe, please? We know you know a lot about baseball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Stop being, you know, smarter than the game. You're not. I love these guys that think, just even like when I'm at a game, I'm like, all right, enough, enough. I'm trying to watch the game. People want to talk to me. And I'm like, I'm actually here to watch it, not to go eat a steak.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
I want... Somebody gave me rich tickets, and I was in those stupid, whatever, those legend seats. I went to eat, and the fifth inning happened. I blame me. I blame... I put the maloiki on myself. Oh, boy. By going, I usually go to the bathroom, I run right back. I'm superstitious. I don't fool around with that stuff. And I should have never, never. What did you do? What did you do?
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
And I said, let me enjoy the food a little bit. What a dumb mistake. I ran out there when the bases loaded. I almost stopped it. But the baseball guards came out. I almost stopped it. He struck out Lux. He struck out Otani. And then. That play at first base happened, and I knew it was over. All right. David Sanford. I know in baseball when things are over.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
All right. I tell people, it's over. The game is over.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
5-1, I don't care. Go home. I'm telling you now, the baseball guards came out. They decided. Well, they decided when Freddie hit the home run. That series was over. It was over. That's baseball.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
If you understand when you see a moment and you go, oh, my God, they go, what's the matter? What do you mean? What's the matter? What's the matter? Well, you're not watching. The game is over. It's now over. They decided it's over. Whoever that guy is, whoever that baseball guard is.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Well, I mean, I don't know if that was the... It could be. I don't know.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
No, no, I didn't think it like that. I knew when they were bringing in Nestor off the couch, that's when I went ballistic. That's when I went ballistic. You know what I mean? I just knew, you know what I mean? There are certain decisions where you go, oh my God, please let me go down with, you know, if I have Mariano and I have Clemens, let me go down with my best.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Don't put somebody in the middle. And do that to me. All right.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Fat Joe, that's a dumb move. The Yankees don't really show me enough love. They should. They should. I mean, I could rile them up. They let me make a hype video years ago. I was shocked for opening day. I was like, me? They're going to let me do that? They did. They did. Every now and then, you know, they know I exist, but they could embrace me a little bit. Right. Just because I'm critical.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Well, you do, but the Yankees don't.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
This is knowledge. This is not just a maniac. This is knowledge with...
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
I got two words for you. you. That's right. you and the horse you rode in on and the cavalry behind you. That's right, mother . Yeah, I'm taking it personal. We gave you our love. We gave you our heart and soul. It wasn't enough. You turned your cap around after the World Series. I saw that move. 700 million, 730. Yeah, it wasn't enough. It wasn't enough. Guaranteed years. It wasn't enough.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz

You don't even choose the Dodgers. You don't even choose the Dodgers. You go off-Broadway to the Mets. You don't want to be on Broadway. And you don't want to be Judge's guy? You don't want to be Judge's partner? Oh, that's right, Judge. Now it's your team. That's it. Let's stick it up his f***ing ass. That's right. Let's go out. Let's get Burns, Freed, Bregman. Let's f***ing take Oscar.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
I don't give a f***. Now we're not f***ing around. Take those f***ing grungy whatever those f***ing... Oh, those stupid Mets.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
I'm glad you clarified that. I'm glad. I have nothing against Bob. He's a class act. He knows a lot about, I'm sure we could talk baseball forever. But when I'm watching the game, Bob, that's when you sort of got in my way a few times. And I have nothing against Bob. No, he did.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Yes, because I'm watching the game with anxiety and his voice keeps talking and it's talking about maybe it's bringing on a negative vibe for me. So I'm like, please just talk a little less. You know, there's a lot of guys like that and they just give you that kind of anxiety.
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
yeah well he's a solo act it's pretty obvious that he's like a robot like a character in a video game i've heard a few things about him so i'm not surprised he's a little hitter but i'm not surprised that he's a bit of a a weird robotic character like those games that you see though video games he's one of those guys i've heard it and i believe it he is like this
The Dan Le Batard Show with Stugotz
Hour 1: Nick Turturro's Yankees Fan Rage With David Samson And Michael Kay
Well, I mean, I don't know if they're drunken sailors, but they had to respond on some level. Max Fried may have gotten too many years, but he's not too shabby. You know, you win with pitching, David, and the Yankees did not have enough pitching. If Max is healthy, I think he can be easily a number one, number two guy. He's way better than Rondon as a partner to Cole. And the bullpen, I agree.
