Congratulations on what has been a whirlwind summer, Ike. Yeah, thank you. It’s been uh it’s been pretty crazy. You know, when I when I talked to the Orioles uh like a week before, it was a really good conversation and you know, we thought they were interested and and then on draft night they made the call and you know, I couldn’t be happier. You guys will join group three. Okay. So, call it five minutes or so. All right. Hi. Nice to meet you. Stay fair. Yeah. I was just hoping not to swing and miss. Yeah. What you try to do every day, right? Nobody. Nobody’s I was like, “Ah, can’t swing in this first pitch.” Get out. Look at it. Yeah. Thank you. Nice to meet you. Tonight, the Orioles are proud to welcome their four first round picks in the 2025 MLB draft. Joining us tonight, please welcome catcher Ike Irish. [Music] Hey, nice to meet you. Hey, Slater.

  1. Who's going to tell them that he batted .230/.296/.297, for an OPS of .593, at low-A this year?
    .296 on-base percentage and .297 slugging percentage – that's hard to do.
