Do you think they'll let me in? I just want to go to World Series! Hey guys, don't you miss the World Series? I miss the World Series. I miss sports. I miss baseball. I miss all the things. I miss all of them. But you know what I just heard? World Series tickets are going on sale. Let's discuss. What's up guys? Welcome back. My name is Shiraz. Here on Thumbs Up Run where we talk about buying tickets, selling tickets, and making sure that you have all the fun with your tickets. I know it's been a little while. How are you guys doing? I hope you guys are doing well. No sports there. They're slowly making their way back. But now that we've entered into October, the prime time sport that should be going on right now, baseball. Specifically, getting ready for the World Series. And we'll be post-season definitely one of my favorite things to watch. Can't wait to see what's going to go on. I'm really looking forward to the World Series. I will not be in attendance as I currently live, you know, north of the border and I cannot travel down for it. Unfortunate. But you know, last year I did actually attend the World Series. If you go ahead click up over here or here, I always forget which side it's on. If you click up in one of the corners, I'll have a video posted up there about my trip when I went to the World Series last year. I got there really, really cheap. Divisional Series are happening right now as we speak. Championship Series starting up next week and then the World Series just a little bit after that. Ooh, very exciting. You know what I just heard? A little birdie told me World Series tickets, they're going on sale. So does that mean? It means you have yourself a chance to actually go ahead and see some sports live. Now, there's a few caveats to discuss. So we're going to talk about a couple of things. What tickets are actually going to go on sale? When is it happening? And are there any safety precautions you need to be aware of? Let's talk about all these things right now. All right, first off, what are we talking about? We're talking about MLB postseason tickets, but very specifically, not all of them. We're talking about National League Championship Series and the World Series. That's it. That's all. No ALCS, no Divisional Series games, just the two series I mentioned. These are the things place in Texas at the Texas Rangers Homeball Park, the new global life field that just opened up this past year and they've yet to actually have their inaugural season started there. So this is what they're going to do. They're trying to get some people in the seats, trying to get some games going, trying to make a little bit of money, and in the process give people something to actually, you know, cheer for, get excited about, really root for. Fantastic. It's not going to be the Texas Rangers because it didn't quite make it, but that's, you know, that's besides the point. Anything on the AL side that's all taking place in California, unfortunately no fans are going to be able to attend those games unless you're a fan cutout. So what are they going to sell? They're going on sale Tuesday, October 6th at 10 a.m central time. Basically anything for 10 a.m local, that's how it's going to happen. If you want to buy your tickets for the World Series, you can do so on mlb.com or texasrangers.com. Very simply, they're selling all the games together at the same time for the Championship Series and the World Series all going on sale.   It's going to be awesome. Couple things to consider though. One, there is a ticket limit. Ticket limits of four. Four tickets per game. Pricing, not yet established, not yet determined. Likely to be in that, you know, 125 to 500 range somewhere in there for face values, plus or minus depending on what they actually decide on. We'll get a bit more information once they actually end up going on sale. Next thing, they're only selling about 28% capacity of the building. So that's about 11,500 seats. Texas does allow up to 50% of the capacity to be sold, but mlb has just decided to only release about 28%. This obviously gives enough leeway in terms of practicing safe social distancing, making sure that they, you know, meet any, you know, guidelines in terms of security and protocols, all that kind of jazz, all that fun stuff. Where the seats going to be, they're going to be all over the entire building and they'll make sure that seats are actually all within that, you know, minimum six feet distance apart from each other as well. They've also stated that any seats that are near close to the field, close to the actual players, there's going to be a minimum of 20 feet between them and the players. Now, like I said, there's a limit of four tickets per game. Now, what's the minimum you may ask? Also four tickets per game. Interesting point. Do you not think I want to buy only one ticket? I want to buy two. I want to buy three tickets. I want to buy any number of tickets other than four. Unfortunately, it is not possible. What's happening? MLB is selling tickets in pods, pods of four. So therefore, all four tickets are going to be contiguous, consecutive, all beside each other. And there we sold as one pod, one pack all together. You cannot break it up. You cannot break it up into one and three, two and two.  You can buy one for each game that is taking place at Global Eye Field. However, just keep in mind, you cannot buy more than four for any one game. A couple of other things. Safety-wise, masks are mandatory unless you're eating or drinking any food. Again, six feet distance, minimum between each of the different pods and 20 feet minimum distance between pods and the players. There will also be hand sanitizing stations throughout the building. And lastly, there will be no bags allowed into the venue unless you have a medical reason or a diaper bag, that kind of thing. Just got to be careful. Last thing, last thing now. So you got your tickets. You know who you're going to be going with. You want to make sure that they all get their tickets. It is possible to go ahead and transfer your seats. Therefore, it opens up the possibility of seats actually being sold. Can you sell your tickets individually? The short answer? No. Do not do this. You are not allowed to sell your seats in any grouping other than a group of four, both on the primary market and secondary market. So if you, for whatever reason, decide that you've bought your pod of seats and you can no longer go, you could only sell your seats as a pack of four. You cannot sell it as a one, a two, or a three. You must sell the entire pack together. It is not good enough to say I'm going to sit on my own and then put a gap between me and then have another pair of seats I'm going to sell to somebody else. No. You must follow all safety protocols. You cannot do that. MLB does not condone this type of behavior. The state does not condone this type of behavior. Nobody condones this behavior. So if you live in the Texas area and you are very interested in actually seeing some baseball live, there are a few options available for you. National League Championship Series, World Series. It's all there. It's all ready for you.  But again, make sure when you're buying tickets, if you see anything for one, two, or three seats, do not, do not, do not buy them. You will not be able to get into the venue because you will run into the issue of social distancing and all the other safety protocol issues. It is not safe for you. It is not safe for them. It is not safe for anybody. Do not do it. Only buy tickets in packs of four, four, four, four, four. And the last, last point, where do you actually buy your tickets? You buy them on mlb.com or texasrangers.com. Both same thing. It doesn't matter which one you go to. It will be the same inventory available. I have the links down below in the description. So you can go ahead, jump on there, take a look at them and buy your seats that way. If you have any other questions about World Series tickets, ticketing in general during this era, anything about social distancing related tickets, let me know in the comments below. I'll be sure to get back to you. I'll answer all your questions. I have a few more videos coming up. I know it's been a little while since we've had a little discussion, little one on one. It's time we start seeing each other again. You know, I think it's time. I think we're ready. I think it's going to be okay. There are a lot of questions that have come up over time. So I need to make sure I get them answered for you. That's all I've got for today though. So if you're going to be watching some baseball, definitely do so in a safe manner. See you guys next time.


Derek Henry's a monster.  Monster! On this edition of Titans All Access, we've got the quarterback. That's right. Number 17 himself, Ryan Tannehill, is this week's Nissan Insider.  Plus, Dave McGinnis breaks down the explosiveness of AJ Brown. And with the Bengals awaiting, general manager John Robinson has a full scouting report. Here we go. Titans All Access starts now. The monster, Derek Henry. We welcome you to Titans All Access with Amy Wells. I'm Mike Keith, glad to have you as part of what will be a special program because today on this show, two parts, not one part, but two parts with quarterback Ryan Tannehill and our Nissan Insider. How about that? Well, Mike, we need to have a conversation about this because I came in at the time I was told to be here to shoot the show. And all of a sudden there's this interview with the quarterback that I knew nothing about. Well, you knew something about it. I didn't know that it was happening. Well, he wanted to go early. So I got to talk to Ryan Tannehill. And we started off talking about a compliment from the Titans general manager in regards to approach. Sabotage. Sorry. You're not sorry. Carry the burden. Thanks so much for taking time with us, 17. How are you? Really great, thanks for having me. I want to start with something John Robinson said about you recently. I asked him, I said, why is Ryan Tannehill the perfect guy to be the Tennessee Titans quarterback right now? And the word he used to start with, he praised a lot of your attributes, but the number one thing he said was your approach. Explain to us from a quarterback's perspective what approach is and why that's so important. I'm assuming it's just the way I approach the game. My preparation day in and day out, how it come into work every single day. I come to try to get better each and every day no matter what the situation is going on around me. Do everything I can to take advantage of the opportunities that are given to me. Wednesday, it's first, second down, Thursday, third down stuff, Friday, red zone, total game plan. And I'm trying to hold you guys around me accountable and ultimately go out on every Sunday and find a way to win. Ryan, we've seen you so many times as the Titans quarterback go out for a final drive and lead the team down the field. Using the word approach again, what's your mindset when you take the field as the Titans quarterback to begin a last minute drive? My mindset is to go execute one play at a time and finish in the end zone and win the game. I have a lot of confidence in the guys around me. We've shown time and time again that we can get it done. But really just staying calm in the storm, right? It's a lot of craziness going on, times run down, but a lot of chaos that can catch you up. But I really just try to center myself and focus on one play at a time, executing each play in itself, keeping in mind situation and everything like that and then ultimately making the plays to get yourself and the team in the end zone. Is that as much fun as it looks like it is? Oh, it's so much fun.  Those are the moments you dream about in your kid or even now when you lay in bed at night, you pitch yourself marching down the field and winning the game late in the fourth quarter over time and nothing better than that. Ryan Tannehill will throw the ball to any eligible receiver. Some quarterbacks don't do that.  You will throw it at anybody on the roster who is out there eligible and open. Why? I believe in the guys around me. You know, we have a lot of guys who come to work each and every day and prove themselves. You know, you may not see it on Sundays, but there's a lot of guys that are maybe on practice squad or receivers who don't get a whole lot of playing time, but a lot of confidence in those guys. I see the way that they work and the way that they make plays in practice. So when their number is called and they have to step in to go into a game for us, that confidence doesn't drop. And I have a lot of confidence that I can just do my job, which is, you know, going through the play, finding the open guy, then delivering an active football. Ryan Tannehill will rejoin Titan's All Access later in the show for a second part of his Nissan Insider. But up next, it's Coach Dave McGinnis, ready to go beneath the surface to break down some big plays from AJ Brown. Every vote counts. I know a lot of times for me, I think my vote's not gonna count, but if the person next to me says the same thing, and the next person to him says the same thing, all of a sudden nobody's voting. I didn't really feel the importance as a younger adult, but now I really see the importance, especially in this election, because every single vote counts. I mean, you never know if your vote could be the swing vote that can decide who could be the president. It's your right as an American to make sure that your voice is heard and you have to say that what not only goes on, the presidential elections, but everything between that and city council. Every vote counts. Every vote counts. Every vote counts. Every vote counts. Every vote counts. Tighten up. Wide receiver AJ Brown has four touchdowns since returning from injury, which is pretty impressive. So we had to talk about it. And who better to break this down than Coach Mack. So check this out on this week's Beneath the Surface, powered by Microsoft Surface. This is Coach Mack. Welcome to Beneath the Surface, powered by Microsoft Surface. Today we're gonna look at four plays in the second half of the Titans Pittsburgh game and watch AJ Brown and the Titans offense make a comeback in the second half after being down by 27 to seven in the first half. First play we're looking at here, John New Smith lines up out to the defensive left. You see him move back in. They've got a tight bunch to the defensive left side. Play action and then a bang eight. This is a bang eight throw, an immediate throw to AJ Brown. Really, really nice timing throw. Big time catch by AJ Brown knowing that this is a collision area. Watch the protection that works with the offensive line to the right side. Very nice protection, bang eight. Beautiful throw over the top of the linebacker on the inside, splits the defensive backs on the backside, and then the tremendous speed with a man his size, AJ Brown, touchdown. Second and sixth and the ball's on the 44 yard line, 12-23 in the fourth quarter. Now the score is 27 to 17. We're looking at very, very tight in your play action week. This is a play action to the weak side now. Watch, this is a deep dig. This is a deep dig back to the backside X receiver where AJ Brown is. Watch the play action, really nice protection again. Immediate throw, the ball is placed perfectly. AJ bounces the ball a little bit at the first to himself, but is able to hang on and then with his strong hands and his strength on the inside, he's able to complete this catch. Huge first down for the tight. Second one, ball's on the 29, 216 in the fourth quarter. Now the score is 27-24. Now we look at everybody is spread out wide here. The back is on Tannehill's left hip. Now watch the throw. This is a simple stop route over here to AJ Brown that is the furthest receiver to Tannehill's left. It's an immediate throw. The corner is playing very, very far off coverage. Watch AJ Brown not only make the immediate catch, but immediately turn and get up the field to maximize the yardage on a very simple stop route and take advantage of his speed and his size. Last play we're gonna look at is third and 12. Ball's on the 46, 105 in the fourth quarter. Yo-yo motion, which is a back and forth motion by the tight end. Now we get a five-man pressure coming in here. Look at the precise route running and then look at the precise timing from Tannehill to AJ Brown over here to his right side. You get the five-man pressure. The front and the back have to do a nice job of chipping to help excellent, excellent timing on the throw, but the route is run so precisely and then the sure hands of AJ Brown ensure another huge first down in the fourth quarter. AJ Brown, the Titans offense, Ryan Tannehill were a big part of second half comeback of the Tennessee Titans in this ball game to draw the score closer. Looking forward to seeing what AJ Brown is able to do against the Cincinnati Bengals. All right, we're going to take a quick break, but when we come back, Mike Keith is back and John Robinson will be here to give us a scouting report presented by Farm Bureau Insurance. Stick around. Got a question for Titans head coach, Mike Vrable. You can ask on Twitter by sending it to at Titans radio. We pass along all of your questions to the big man each Monday night at six central on the Mike Vrable show. So send in those questions to the coach at Titans radio on Twitter. You're out there saying that your one vote doesn't matter. Imagine that there's thousands of people saying that and those numbers add up so every vote matters. Growing up as a young man, I never thought that my vote matter, but it really does and never once you had that same mindset. I think voting is a way for you to express yourself, express your opinion and try to make change. It's a lot of people who voice their opinions about the same time. You need to do more than just voice in your opinion on social media so if you need to actually go out and participate in vote, the way your voice should really hurt. Your vote matters. Your vote matters. Every vote matters. Every vote matters. We welcome you back to Titans All Access, the Farm Bureau Insurance Scouting Report with Titans General Manager, John Robinson.  Right, it's very fun to get no information. But we still, you know, we get blown away by, get blown off by the general manager, but we didn't get a chance to talk to you before the 2020 draft for obvious reasons. And I know you weren't going to pick Joe Burrow because he was going to go very high and you were picking late in the first round. But I would have been interested to hear your overall evaluation of him as a prospect coming into the league. And this week as you get ready to play Joe Burrow in the Bengals, what did you think about him entering the draft? And are you surprised he's done as well as he has this quickly? Definitely not surprised. You know, he was an outstanding prospect coming out of LSU. Really good size, really good arm. Very accurate passer. Could tell that he had commanded that offense down there, had toughness to him to pull the ball down and take off running and scramble for yards whenever he needed to. You know, it was just a really complete player and you know, his transition into the NFL has been, seems to be a pretty seamless one for him skill-wise. Bengals wide out T. Higgins is from Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Why has he started to emerge in the last couple of weeks? Yeah, I mean, he's got excellent size. He really has outstanding ball skills to track the ball. Huge catch radius to go up and pluck it or outjump DBs. Or if the ball is a little off target, he can still make the grab. You know, he's developing a rapport with Burrow there and those two guys are off to a fast start. The problem for Bengals opponents, though, is T. Higgins isn't the only receiver they have, not the only target for Burrow. No, they got plenty of weapons. You know, AJ Green, still there.  Tyler Boyd in the slot. He plays outside as well. He's an excellent route runner. He's really good with the ball in his hands after the catch. Thomas, the fourth receiver. He's a heck of a football player, too. He's got really good size. He's got really good speed. Sample of the tight end is growing to be a favorite target of Burrows in that short to intermediate game. He's got good size. He's got good route running skills. You know, and then on the backfield, they got Gio Bernard, who's a really, really quick fast player. They like to get the ball in his hands and if Nixon's healthy and plays, he's a premium back for him. Now Cincinnati may only have one win, but as you watch them, they really seem to be gaining confidence and just having fun playing football. Do you agree with that?  There was a play on last Sunday versus Cleveland where Phillips may have had an interception down the sideline and the entire sideline erupted. They were all up. You know, these young stars have really rejuvenated this franchise. They're all playing hard.  They may only have one win, but it's a good football team. John, what are the challenges for Ryan Tannehill and the Titans' offense as they go against the Bengals' defense on Sunday? Yeah, I mean, I think defensively, they've done a really good job of mixing veteran players with some youth. You know, it starts up front. You know, they've got Gino Atkins, Mike Daniels, Carlos Dunlap.  Lawson, he's a problem off the edge as an edge rusher. It's the same at Linebacker. You know, you've got two veteran guys in Pratt and Bynes, you know, mixed with Davis Gaither and Wilson, two rookies who are really fast, athletic players. And in the secondary, the safeties, Bates and Bell, they really complement each other well. They're always around the football, you know, when the play is over. And they've got Jackson at corner, who's a long, athletic guy, former first-rounder. It's a gap-and-go. It's an attacking defense. So we'll have to be, you know, on point this Sunday versus those guys. John, thanks so much for the Scouting Report. Appreciate it. Good seeing you guys. John Robinson presented by Farm Bureau Insurance. When we come back, it's part two of my talk with Ryan Tannehill, because I got to work on time. Titans' All Access continues next.

When Mike, Amy, Coach Mack and Jim convene for the OTP, they'll give you an answer. That address again to submit your questions is TennesseeTitans.com slash OTP queue. Welcome back to Titans' All Access. Mike Keith, we're going to get part two of your conversation with Ryan Tannehill. Give us a little tea. All right, so in this segment of the program, we talked to Ryan Tannehill about his relationship with the player that Dave McGinnis broke down earlier in the show, AJ Brown. You have bonds with so many of your teammates and so many of your teammates on offense and so many of your receivers, but AJ Brown talks about your bond constantly, that the two of you have something special. What is it about number 11 and number 17 that goes so well together on the field and even off the field? We have a lot of fun together. You know, I think we both love the game. We love competing, love making plays and get along great. You know, I think not only AJ, but almost everybody on the whole offense. And I have such a good time building those relationships, getting to know guys, you know, what makes them go, what they like. And then, you know, when you're able to spend that time away from the field, I think it makes everything on the field that much better. So much attention to offensive coordinator Arthur Smith and your relationship with him. Why is it so great to be Arthur Smith's quarterback in this offense? It's a lot of fun. I have so much respect for Arthur. I love working with him. He's been great from day one when I got here. Obviously it was a different role, but this is approach to game planning, his approach to setting the tone for the offense and what we expect, holding everyone accountable, laying it out there on what we expect is clear. And I love that communication. I love being able to work with him game planning and making adjustments whether during the week or even on game day making slight adjustments that have paid off for us during the game. So I think there's really just a great banter back and forth, a great communication line that we have and obviously it's paying off on Sunday. Last question. When you look across the field and you see a young guy like a Joe Burrow and you think back to your days of being that early first round pick bonus baby. What do you know now that you wish you had known when you were back in that place eight years ago? So much. You know, you learned so much over the course of life and course of your career, whether it's dealing with things on the field, dealing with things off the field, just football in general. I've learned so much football, you know, from the time I got to League until now with the confidence that I'm seeing clearly what I think I'm seeing. But at the end of the day, you know, some of those things you just have to kind of go through in order to pick them up. Some guys pick them up faster than others, but you know, for me, it's been a steady progression and just hope to stay on that path. So for him, you know, just stay true to who you are and believe in yourself, keep working hard and the rest of it take care of itself. Good luck this weekend and the rest of the season and thank you so much for the time. All right, thank you. Thanks for having me. It was awesome, the quarterback taking time to talk with us on Titan's All Access, the week of the Cincinnati game. To be clear, he didn't talk to us, he talked to you. Well, us is Titan's All Access. It's our program. I'm Salty. When we come back, my keys to beating the Cincinnati Bengals, that's next on Titan's All Access. It's all about Mike today. No, it's not. Oh, Mike's show. Sensitive. Every vote counts. I know a lot of times for me, I think my vote's not going to count, but if the person next to me says the same thing, the next person to him says the same thing, all of a sudden nobody's voting. I didn't really feel the importance as a younger adult, but now I really see the importance, especially in this election, because every single vote counts. I mean, you never know if your vote could be the swing vote that can decide who could be the president. It's your right as an American to make sure that your voice is heard and you have to say that what not only goes on the presidential elections, but everything between that and city council. Every vote counts. Every vote counts. Every vote counts. Every vote counts. Every vote counts. Tighten up. All access. Mike Keith, the Titans are taking on the Bengals. Everybody knows this. What we don't know are your keys to victory. Give them to us, Mike. Key number one, pressure as the great Billy Joel sang back in the 1980s. Pressure. The Titans have got to get pressure on Joe Burrow. There's always a game every year. It seems that the Titans get the pass rush started and then it's sort of mushrooms from there into sacks and more sacks. This would be the week to have this happen. Burrow has had trouble being sacked this year 28 times. Titans need to add to that total, get their pressure amped up, get more quarterback sacks in the last 10 games of the year. All right. Give me your second key. Hit them. Pretty simple. They throw the ball sideways. They do a lot of things. They use a lot of different receivers. They throw to Jill Bernard. You've got to get them and wherever you're going to make a tackle, you've got to get them on the ground. Not an easy thing to do with great athletes like the Bengals have. All right. Give us the last key. My last key is get the Titans involved. Titans Titans only three catches for 16 yards in last week's game against the Steelers. Some of that was because they were staying into block. But when the Titans are good offensively, the Titans are very involved. You've got John Smith. You've got Anthony Ferkser. You've got Michael Pruitt. You've got Jeff Swain. That's when they're at their best. Want to see the Titans be more involved in the offense this week? How are those for three keys? Pressure, hit them. Tight end production. I like them. Those are solid. You ready to go to Cincinnati? I'm ready. Ready for Skyline Chili? Probably not. All right. I am. Get a mic. We're excited. Titans taking on the Cincinnati Bengals this Sunday. Kickoff is 1202 Central Time. Amy Wells, Mike Keith, the whole gang on Titans Radio joining you with Titans Countdown at 11. We hope you'll join us. So for Amy, I'm Mike. Thanks for being with us for Titans All Access. And we'll see you next time.


The RuRH2 bi-metally non-airing has been developed as a promising electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction, HER. It displays superior performance compared to existing point catalysts and other reported her catalysts. The unique structural features of this material, including grain boundaries and symmetry breaking, are responsible for its enhanced her activity. These features enable the efficient transfer of electrons and the adsorption of reactants, which leads to improved her performance in different pH conditions.
