Could somebody tell me what he is saying at 2:46 here, before "Watch this"? "Get much more back door than this" or something? What does it mean?
And about this. At 8:57, right before "made (?) a statement", what is he saying?
And at 9:34 , right before "... what's been there before, they did this for the Dominican Republic" and at 9:43, right after "And they know that the Dominican Republic is what...", what is he saying?

Taka Get much more back door than this" or something? It doesn’t get much more backdoor than this. I don’t know anything about baseball, so I’ll let Wikipedia do the talking: A breaking pitch, usually a slider, curveball, or cut fastball that, due to its lateral motion, passes through a small part of the strike zone on the outside edge of the plate after appearing it would miss the plate entirely.

- It may not cross the front of the plate but only the back and thus have come in through the "back door".
- A slider is the most common version, because a slider has more lateral motion than other breaking pitches.
