Ryan's Ridiculous: Ryan Goes Home

Description: Ryan's up against the best in this celebrity softball showdown...or at least the best of the celebs that decided to show up! An old football rivalry will surface, but as always, Ryan has some help from above to scout the opposition! Drones are Ryan's ticket to softball glory, as he gets the aerial perspective on the pitchers' style and finds the best places to line up his hits. But who will come out on top? Only a drone can catch all the action, and Ryan has plenty of them on his bench! VIDEO TRANSCRIPTS: Ben Leber: I'm on deck. No, don't break your neck. Ryan: That's the goal. I may die. Leber you're a bum! So I got invited to play in the celebrity softball game. For the American Association All Star game festivities. Hosted by our St. Paul Saints baseball team. So I though it's only ridiculous if I bring out some shenanigans, so that's exactly what [00:00:30] I'm going to be doing today. It's been 10 years since we were teammates on the gridiron. Do you think you stand a chance? Ben Leber: I'm the starting pitcher, so your ass is going down. I got a spitter, a splitter, a knuckle serve and the straight up fastball. Ryan: Well what you have yet to see is the fact that I'll have drones on my side. I'll have one hovered right above you, seeing where you toss the ball, how early, how late, I feel like that's going to be advantage Team Sauce. Ben Leber: So is that going to be accessible to everybody? Ryan: We haven't got the ... Ben Leber: You can't scout me illegally. Right after [00:01:00] this interview I'm going right inside and I'm saying nope, Sauce's team they're using illegal drones to scout me as a pitcher. Ryan: I'm with my team captain and manager, Meatsauce from KFAN, we're going to be able to use drones to our advantage today. MeatSauce: I think that's sweet. That's a really good idea. Can we get those pictures that they get on football so I can see what's going on? How high up will they go? Will they get my bald spot? Ryan: Leave the hat on. Announcer: [inaudible 00:01:26] running home! Ryan: [00:01:30] I'm really good at base coaching. I've hit rock bottom in sports. Right! Touch the base! Touch the base! Touch the base! Safe, nice job. Announcer: Oh bean ball on Ben Leber. Ryan: Leber you're a bum! [00:02:00] Sauce, are you okay? MeatSauce: Yeah I'm good. Ryan: Bush league, that's bush league! I'm going to get kicked out of here. Hey we need a first base coach. I'm batting. Alright we got a new pitcher in. Speaker 5: He's throwing some knuckles though. Ryan: Yeah alright. Speaker 5: See how it kinda comes out of his hand funny. Ryan: Look how shallow they're playing here, it's right in the middle, there's a huge gap right there. Ben Leber: Oh, opposite [00:02:30] field. That might get him... Announcer: Ripped down the third base line [crosstalk 00:02:33]in the park home run. Ben Leber: There he goes. Announcer: Fosser just taking his sweet, you know what, time. Player: You almost had him, you almost had him. Ryan: Called my shot. The drone video showing me their shaded little bit playing pole. They don't know I'm a crafty veteran. We [00:03:00] won the inning, we won the inning. Nice job, nice job. I'm on deck. Gold: Op, sorry, right behind you. Ryan: Gold, don't break your neck. Gold: That's the goal. Ryan: I may die. [00:03:30] Whatever it takes to win. It should have been a RBI. Are you going to let me pitch? Player: Go for it. Suit up baby. Ryan: 2 outs. You're a bum. [00:05:00] Ah electric. Ben Leber: It was electric. Ryan: The drones made the difference. Ben Leber: I think people want to see the view from the player's perspective. I think where drones come is, is they can come in kind of quietly, the people at home, if you're like, oh my gosh I'm actually there. Ryan: As a pitcher, how do you think you could utilize seeing that drone perspective in between innings? Ben Leber: If you're a pitcher, and you can see not only our own delivery and you're set up but maybe you see a quirk or something from the batter that you didn't see before, that first [00:05:30] person perspective, it changes everything. Ryan: Alright buddy. Good to see you. Ben Leber: Good to see you too. Ryan: That was fun. Announcer: Pretty sure that pig has heat exhaustion. No one seems to care. Oh back on his feet, almost, you can do it buddy, get there, get there. Looks like Sauce after five GNT's.
