AI GeneratedFormer in-game host Cynthia Sunshine joins Regina to discuss the electric atmosphere surrounding the World Series. They reflect on a thrilling 12th-inning victory for the Rays, the positive interactions between Rays and Brewers fans, and the importance of maintaining high energy and a \"one game at a time\" mentality to clinch the title.
Yesterday on our 3 p.m. stream, we actually had a very special guest,
former in-game host and Super Rays fan known as Cynthia Sunshine,
Cynthia Wire, up and at them, joining us live once again,
this time via Zoom, because I know everybody had a very late night.
Cynthia, my girl, how you doing?
I'm amazing, Regina. How you doing?
I am good. We are all a little tired, but in good reason.
So you were here on set,
and I wish I grabbed some of the footage of your ticket.
I know you have your World Series jersey
in the back of your shot. Look at it.
Yep, you got all the stuff, all the good luck charms,
and they worked. You
and I sat here less than 24 hours ago talking about needing to keep the
energy up, needing to keep the vibes going because this team needed it.
And clearly that came through
in the final at bats last night.
What was your take me through
Cynthia's emotions
watching that game play out?
So at the start of the game,
as we talked about yesterday,
the Brewers fans are so dang nice.
So I started my night at Green
Bench and saw a lot of them.
And we were just having some good
talks about just what great ball
we've been seeing on field,
especially from them.
And as we continue, I would cheer
as we would get on base.
every little thing that we did is a win, right?
We stack those up and that'll hopefully get us to
the trophy. And it definitely paid off yesterday.
You saw on that 12th inning extras, I'm freaking
out. I migrated to Ferg's. I was a little scared
to go there at first because it was so busy,
but I love it. I love the energy of everyone coming out,
even people that don't watch baseball.
My friend was like, look, we're going.
And I'm like, yes, DC, you're having fun. Baseball is
fun. And I think the guys remember that last night.
Baseball is so fun and challenging.
I mean, the fact that it was tied a majority of the game,
I saw it go into a 10th inning and then the 11th inning.
And I'm like, my alarm clock is suffering.
But I mean, just to watch it until the final at bat.
I mean, I can imagine.
So Ferg's is right across the street from the trop.
I know in game three, when we saw a pretty disappointing performance,
a lot of Rays fans were leaving early.
But what was the energy like outside of the trop after that win?
So we were on the side, one of the side lots watching the game.
I ran immediately to the main DJ stage for us to have a dance party.
I said, DJ already hit that.
Play the Bee Gees because we're staying alive, baby, and we are.
And it was just such
lively energy and people weren't going anywhere.
I can't remember the time cuz we were just,
I was on cloud nine, having that win.
And look, 12th inning with my 12 jersey, it worked, man.
And I was asking them, I was like,
are we allowed to still keep playing music?
But we had such a blast, and everyone was just so hype.
I'd yell out, yeah, yeah, and I'd get yeahs back,
and we just kept it going.
I love it, I love it.
I know that you were at game three,
but this was a look at just you bringing the vibes.
And I mean, obviously, this was before a concerning performance,
but the lucky hot dog keychain.
I know that obviously these world ticket,
excuse me, World Series ticket prices are
expensive.
But I mean, I think you can definitely speak
to the fact that you do not have to be inside
this stadium to bring the energy and to keep the momentum going.
Absolutely, it's about who you surround yourself with.
And people know that if you gotta be around me,
we're gonna be loud, we're gonna have
a great time.
And we're gonna hype up the team with the good
and the bad, honestly, we're just happy
to be here.
We're in the World Series.
I know Brewers fans are feeling the same way.
They're happy to be here.
They haven't been here since the 80s.
And that's why, on both sides, we've got just major energy going.
I love it.
And I mean, okay,
walk me through what your thoughts are as of tonight, game five.
We have to win the next three games straight
to clinch a World Series title.
Give me your thoughts.
So, yes, we have to win three more to get that title.
But right now, we need to focus on what's in front of us.
Yesterday, we won a game.
Today, we're going to win a game.
Chunk it out one at a time, and that's how we get it done.
Only think about today, reflect on yesterday, but keep moving forward.
We said it yesterday, do or die.
Today, again, do or die.
Hit that repeat button.
Let's keep going, and let's play some freaking baseball.
Let's play some freaking baseball, girl.
The fans, you mentioned so far, I mean,
I can imagine Brewers fans were upset last night.
They thought that they would be celebrating a World Series win.
You mentioned it at the top of the interview,
but I mean, what has it been like
watching this alongside Milwaukee fans who, might I add,
we were just so surprised to see how many actually came to Tampa?
Yeah, I've been calling it the wave
of cheese money coming down to the Sunshine State.
They've been so energetic and they're
also giving us our kudos when we won they were
like great job.
It was good baseball to watch.
Of course they wanted to see themselves have
the champagne showers, but we live to see
another day and someone's gonna have a shower at the end of this week.
So I think everyone's excited to see how we're gonna shake it out.
Yeah, I actually I don't, I wasn't able to get it.
It wasn't technically our video,
but I don't know if you saw it Cynthia.
There was a video that one of the reporters covering
the game last night caught.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
Yes.
Them carting the champagne out
of the Brewers Clubhouse cuz they were like, wait,
hold up.
There's not gonna be a celebration just yet.
Listen, being behind the magic of baseball on either side,
there's a lot of moving parts.
So they're prepping the clubhouses,
they're trying to make sure they've got the tarps
all on the side.
And I'm sure they were ready to cart in some beer
and champagne and they're like, 12th
we gotta go and reverse back to the storage closet.
I know, I know, Sin,
what was it like for anybody that is watching this and headed inside
the Trop today, regardless of the performance
that you specifically saw that night? I mean,
what was it like being at a World Series game?
That's what I'm saying, and that's what
I've been telling people.
I got to go to a World Series game.
Who else can say that? Only 40,000 other people each
night, but got to go to a World Series game,
that's history, that's amazing.
The Brewers hadn't been since, what, the 80s?
So they've been waiting for this for a long
freaking time, and I got to go now.
And we were just in in 2020, and in 08, so it's just,
I'm getting goosebumps. It's just an incredible feeling
to be able to be part of something
like that, especially with this team that raised me,
and raised me literally, and also
raised me in my career of being able to work there for six seasons.
I just, I'm fired up.
And if you're not, please come talk to me
because I'll make sure you leave fired up.
I was literally gonna ask you,
we have totally failed to mention this entire time that you were
an in-game host for how many years?
I was a fan host for, I wanna say five,
six years. I think COVID obviously stopped us, but I joined in 2015.
Wow. I was in college,
It was my junior year and I wanted a part time job
and it was the most fun job I've
ever had to date and I still go back.
I see all my pals every time I go
to the truck, I got to make my rounds.
I started gate one, I go and see Bruce at 118 and I just run around.
It's a great time.
Bruce at 118, I still remember you but you are an unforgettable person.
Walk me through, did you say, do you have the lucky pearls?
I've got the one in the bag.
I'm gonna be honest with you Regina, I wore the pearls last night.
I can't find them.
I can't find them from the ones I wore on show yesterday.
I'm sure I just delicately took them off
and just put them where I don't remember at the
moment but I will be wearing them tonight once found
because they're home here safe
and sound.
I just- Okay, okay.
So they're in the house.
A lot of things for Race fans today.
Okay, that's all we need to know.
Cynthia Weier, I could talk to you forever.
I will let you go get some rest.
Thank you so much for coming on here
and continuing to bring all of our viewers and Race fans
the energy that we need, especially after baseball
at one o'clock in the morning.
We appreciate you. We love you. And we'll talk to you soon.
