Q: Absolutely. It's a beautiful stadium. I have no idea how large that stadium was. Wayne, thanks for your time. I want to ask you about Alex Karaban, long story short, what can King's fans expect him to bring to the party at the Golden One Center here in Sacramento next season?
Karaban is a winner with a versatile game; he can shoot, handle, defend intelligently, and elevate teammates. His high basketball IQ and ability to impact multiple facets of the game should help him contribute as a forward with playmaking and leadership, while bringing defense and team-first play to Sacramento.

Q: Jay, is Jung-Hoo Lee the best jitter on the planet?
Ray Ratto and the hosts push back and discuss Lee's overall stats, noting that while he's hot, the claim to being the best purely on every metric isn't clear, and context like walks, homers, and overall production must be considered.
